That Time Hori And Miyamura Got Reincarnated In Another World (COMPLETED)

Chapter 23: The Formation Of Nonagram

After the battle, the demon lords resumed their meeting, the mood much more serious now that Clayman was gone. Frey and Carrion, two of the most powerful demon lords, stood up.

"We have decided," Frey said, her voice calm and authoritative. "We will step down as demon lords and serve under Horimiya and Milim."

This sudden declaration shocked the room. Hori and Miyamura exchanged startled looks, unsure of how to respond.

"You can't be serious," Miyamura said, feeling the weight of such a decision. "You're both powerful demon lords. Why would you-"

Carrion cut him off. "We've seen your strength, your resolve. You and Milim are far better suited to lead this world toward a new future."

At first, Hori and Miyamura were hesitant. The responsibility of leading not just their kingdom but other powerful beings seemed daunting. But after some serious discussion, and Milim's enthusiastic support, they agreed.

"We accept," Hori said finally, her voice steady. "But we'll continue to build a world where all species can live together in peace."

With that, Guy Crimson stood, his eyes glinting mischievously. "Then it's settled. We'll need a new name for our group of demon lords, don't you think?"

Hori and Miyamura were taken aback. "Us? Name the group?" Miyamura asked, surprised.

Guy nodded. "You're the ones who've brought about this new era. It's only fitting."

After a moment of thought, Miyamura looked at Hori, and they both smiled. "How about... Nonagram?" Hori suggested. "It represents the nine demon lords of this new alliance."

Everyone in the room nodded in agreement, accepting the new name with a sense of finality. The Octagram was born.

Back in Tempest, their friends and allies welcomed them with open arms. The news of Clayman's defeat and the creation of the Octagram spread quickly, and the people celebrated their victory.

Benimaru, Shion, Ranga, and the others had successfully defended Tempest against Clayman's army, and now they all gathered to greet their returning leaders.

"Welcome back!" Benimaru called out, smiling widely. "We've taken care of things here."

As Horimiya looked at their friends, relief washed over them. They had fought hard, and now peace had returned to their kingdom.

That night, Tempest erupted in celebration once more, and Hori and Miyamura stood side by side, proud of the kingdom they had built and the bonds they had formed with their friends and allies.
