After vaporizing the golem I flashed an evil smile.
Ku ku ku.
Now we can continue the conversation on our terms.

「Now then, if you don't want to be scorched to death, how about you come on out?
I know exactly where you are all hiding, you know?」

I know the general direction but not the exact location.
I'd much rather they come out of their own volition.
In response to my words, in great panic,

「Yes! Yes, yes, yes!!!
As You have commanded, though greatly embarra.s.sed, we appear before you!!! 」

And, with dragonfly wings growing from their backs, tiny and cute girls (?) came flying out.
They were no longer than 30 cm in height. Not midgets, but the kind of fairy you'd hear about in a fairy tale.
At the front of the group lined up girls dressed in dazzling dresses with many frills; behind them, another group was dressed in rather plain dress.
Overall, they dressed in darker colors.

「Ta-daa! I am one of the ten gweat~...」

She bit her tongue.
Should I make fun of her? It seems that she's gotten so used to telepathy that she forgot how to talk.

「..... are you okay?」

She held up her hand in response,

「I am one of the ten great demon lords! Ramiris of the Labyrinth!!!
Cease thou haughty actions! Show humility!!!」

She happily said,
While proudly showing off her none-existent chest. Why do I feel so p.i.s.sed off...
First, let's chop her.

「Uhyou!!! Wha-what was that for! You'll give me a heart attack!!!」

She complained after dodging with her small body.

Horrible, right~? Right~?
Should we kill it? Kill it?
But, but, but, but, it killed the golem, right?
Impossible. Impossible. We'll be killed!

How noisy.
My head was filled with their chatter.

「Besides, you are cheating! Why aren't you affected by『Thought Manipulation』!
It's been too long since we last met someone like you!!!」

Isn't she furious.
I see, so the strange anger I feel towards them is due to me resisting their『Thought Manipualtion』right?
However, there's no way anyone among these fairies (brats) is a demon lord. Are they still messing with me?

「Hey, next time you lie come up with a more believable one.
There's no way anyone among you brats is a demon lord! 」
「Don't call us brats! Seriously, how rude. What else am I, if not a demon lord!」
「Huh? An idiot? Anyways, speaking of demon lords, you know how stupid your claim sounds in comparison to my friend Milim?
Compared to her, you guys are... pathetic?」
「Stupid!
Stupidstupidstupidstupid!!! You are so stupid~!!!!!!」

The spirit named Ramiris loudly shouted and then stopped to catch her breath.
And,

「Listen here.
When you say Milim, surely you refer to that unreasonable demon lord Milim.
The one that solves everything through brute force.
To compare that unreasonable brute to the beautiful I, aren't you just being rude?
Hey, I'll be troubled if you can't understand that much!」

Her words full of indignation.
And,

「Besides, aren't you a strange one yourself?
What was that? Did you have to suddenly use that dangerous skill!
How many special skills must you possess to use that h.e.l.l flare?
Please don't be so unreasonable.
Ah, whatever.
I'm not even surprised that you're that Milim's acquaintance; I believe you.
So, believe me as well!」
