Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha

"This place is located deep in the Jura Forest. People rely on portals to travel between the capitals. Anyone who appears here and takes the initiative to approach the military camp must be a spy."

Noticing that Ye Men was speechless, Lisia added:

"I haven't been here much. I only heard about it from Shion."

"She said that there are too many secrets in our army, and you have issued a gag order. In order to prevent the secrets of the new weapons from being leaked, we simply locked them all up."

Ye Men was speechless, considering that the noise of gunfire was too loud, and that the floating island was the headquarters of the Onmyoji Guild, which had a complete training system and personnel.

After the successful development of guns and artillery, all the training of the kingdom's army was moved here.

Unexpectedly, a military prison was set up here.

Walking quickly into the prison, the first person that caught my eye was Shion, who was scantily clad, holding a whip, and dressed like a torturer.

Behind her, there was a registration desk and two dozing goblins.

Secondly, there are the cells that stretch as far as the eye can see on both sides, and the prisoners wailing in the cells.

There are women hanging in front of the left channel and men on the right.

"Master Yemen, why are you here? I have been working seriously and have not been slacking off or playing with my phone."

"Why are there so many prisoners here? And there are too many women, right?"

"Lord Yemen, these are all spies who don't know how to live or die and want to spy on our intelligence."

"Are you sure? This is the Jura Forest. With the disappearance of the Storm Dragon, there will definitely be many people coming to investigate. We didn't put up a no-entry notice outside the forest, so how can you be sure that they are spies?"

Stunned by the question, Shion looked around unconsciously, and found that no one could help her speak, so she could only stammer and say:

"Shiraori has been busy with work and has been staying in the capital lately. He rarely comes to the Jura Forest."

"Others caught spies and threw them all here, and then they just left them alone."

"I am only responsible for guarding the prison and making sure the prisoners don't escape. As for whether there are any wrongful convictions, I can't say for sure."

It turned out to be the case.

Ye Men seemed to have realized that the kingdom and the Jura Forest were, strictly speaking, two systems.

The kingdom's military camp was stationed here, and there was a prison in the army. Many monsters and demons captured people and threw them in without caring about the subsequent situation.

The commander of the kingdom is in charge of the kingdom's affairs. Due to his strength and position, he has no control over the people captured by monsters and monsters.

After a while, when Baizhi has some free time, maybe he can deal with it.

Ultimately, it’s because of insufficient manpower and too little time.

"In that case, I'll give you a burden, Shion. From now on, in addition to guarding, you will also be responsible for judging and handling."

"Understood!" Ziyuan said subconsciously, and then asked, "Well, what exactly do we need to do? Lord Yemen."

"Hmm... let's use hypnosis magic. If those people who are believed to be spies are confirmed not to be spies, then they can be released and given some compensation. The amount can be appropriately increased based on the number of days they have been detained."

"I see! No problem."

"Let's get started. Let me see if there are any problems with your handling."

"understand!"

Shion quickly ran to the left passage, stood in front of the first cell, and stared at the disheveled, weak young woman inside.

Hypnosis magic is the basic magic in the Onmyoji School. If men want to learn it, they must pass many character tests. But if women want to learn it, it is very simple, they just need to fill out a form.

Shortly after being given the name, Onmyoji School conducted a week-long training for all named monsters. She learned hypnosis magic at that time, although she never used it once.

"stand up!"

The young woman who heard the voice slowly stood up. She found that there was no light in her eyes, but only confusion and bewilderment. Shion asked in a deep voice:

"Are you a spy?"

"No."

"Uh…"

Unexpectedly, the first one was a false case. Shion's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he quickly changed the way he asked:

"What's your name? Where are you from?"

"My name is Ailian, and I'm an adventurer. I received a mission from the guild to come to the Jura Great Forest to investigate the mystery of Veldora's disappearance."

"Why did you go near the military camp before?"

"Because I heard a lot of continuous loud noises, and I was very curious about why the human army appeared in the Jura Forest, so I wanted to get closer to see which country's army it was."

Ziyuan remained silent. Although this matter was not her responsibility before, there were probably many more unjust, false and wrongful cases of this kind.

"So what did you see?"

"I saw many powerful weapons that could easily smash monsters into pieces."

"If I let you go, what will you do?"

"I will report what I saw here to the guild, then go home directly and never be an adventurer again."

The next moment, Ailian suddenly burst into tears.

"Huh…?"

Shion was slightly startled, but quickly realized that the hypnosis magic should have been lifted the moment she said she didn't want to be an adventurer.

According to the teacher who teaches magic in Onmyoji School, hypnotic magic can be broken by extreme emotions.

Is she...extremely sad?

Thinking of this, Ziyuan quickly walked towards Yemen and others who were watching on the side, and reported in a low voice:

"Lord Yemen, are you going to just let her go? I don't think this is a good idea. Once we let her go, we will definitely welcome more spies."

This is true.

Although Ailian cried very sadly, she really knew too much.

Ye Men hesitated for a moment, looked back, shifted his gaze to Lisia, took out a prop from his portable storage space and handed it to her.

"Lishia, I will give you a tool that can erase memories. From now on, you will be responsible for contacting Shion with your phone and come regularly to clear the memories of those who mistakenly enter the military camp."

"It doesn't have to be too much. Just calculate the number of days and clear their memories of the time they entered the Jura Forest."

Are there any other props like this?

Wouldn't that turn people into idiots?

No, we have hypnosis magic, so clearing memory doesn’t seem to be a big deal.

After receiving this somewhat scary prop, Lisia couldn't help but speak:

“Is it necessary to do this?”

"Of course, the guns and cannons have to be kept secret for a while longer. At least until the matter of the Kingdom of Melomag is over. We can't let anyone associate those weapons with our Kingdom of Elfriden."

"But... won't we have to use guns and artillery on a large scale when we fight the Demon King's army?"

“Indeed, but time is a big problem. As long as the matter of the Kingdom of Melomag is over and diplomatic relations are officially established with other countries, they will definitely try to imitate guns and cannons.

By then, we can completely say that we are using imitation products.

In short, the source of the gunfire cannot be us, Elfriden."

"I see."

Lisia was thoughtful. It seemed that keeping it secret was indeed necessary.

In order to keep the secret and prevent the kingdom from becoming the world's public enemy, it is necessary to clear her memory after entering the Jura Forest.

At this moment, the crying in the first cell suddenly stopped and turned into sobbing sounds with a hint of surprise.

"Lishia, is that you? Lishia."

? ?

Hearing her voice, Lisia ran over quickly.

"Hey...!? Why are you here?"

"Lishia, as soon as I got close to here, I was captured by a monster without any explanation. Why...why are you here?"

"I really want to let you out and apologize to you, but... I'm sorry..."

Finding that Lisia had picked up the prop in her hand, Ailian couldn't help but take two steps back, trying to stay away from the prison door.

"Lisia, I can sign a confidentiality agreement with you and never tell anyone about what happened here. Can you please not erase my memory?"

"If it doesn't work, I can always stay with you."

Chapter 154 Aren’t You Worried That I Will Usurp the Throne?

Seeing this, Lixia looked apologetic, her heart full of hesitation, and she turned to look at Ye Men unconsciously:

"Um... Your Majesty, Ailian is the daughter of the Duke of the Magic Kingdom. When I went to study in the Magic Kingdom, she took good care of me."

"The matter of the Melomag Kingdom should be resolved soon. Until then, can you let her stay in the capital? I will take good care of her."

Ye Men was silent for a few seconds, then slowly spoke:

"Well, can you guarantee her complete confidentiality?"

"I won't say anything!" Ailian didn't hesitate at all. She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, her eyes full of hope.

Although after entering the Jura Forest, all she had were bad memories and she hadn't encountered any good things, she still didn't want her memory to be erased.

Ye Men roughly estimated the time in his mind and said thoughtfully:

"Two months. In the next two months, you cannot leave the Kingdom of Elfriden without permission, nor can you contact the outside world. Is this okay?"

"No problem. Compared to losing my memory for half a month, being grounded for two months is nothing."

"Very good, that's it. As compensation, I will open the Yin Yang School to you."

Ye Men turned to look at Lisia and said thoughtfully:

"I will open a portal to the Onmyoji School in the palace, and you can go there with her for half a day's classes every day."

"What is Onmyoji School?" Lisia looked hesitant.

"The name of the guild in the central area of ​​the Jura Forest. It is also the headquarters here..."

So that place is called Yin Yang Academy?

Licia seemed to be deep in thought. Although she knew that the strength of the Jura Forest was extremely strong and that the central area was very well built, she didn't know much about the rest.

Unexpectedly, the main body turned out to be a training institution similar to a magic academy.

“Since there is a complete training process here, why is it not open to the public?”

"Because there is already a magic academy in the capital, and the magicians here are too high-level. Instead of asking them to teach basic knowledge, it is better for them to shine in the army."

Lisia was speechless. Well, this reason made sense.

The magicians coming out of the Jura Forest are indeed too powerful.

In comparison, the magicians in the royal capital are just like beginners.

"Are we the only two going to class? Wouldn't that be a waste of resources?"

"It's not a waste. With your abilities, even if we randomly pick up a vegetable vendor from the street, he will be able to teach you."

Lixia was a little speechless for a moment. Why did this sound so harsh? Although it was true.

"Then... can I find a few more friends to go to class together? I think everyone should be interested in learning those lost high-level magics."

After all, if people had known earlier that Onmyojiu was actually a training institution, there would have been a lot of people applying to sign up.

"No problem, but the students must be carefully selected and must not aid the enemy."

"Of course!"

Although it is a bit regrettable that we only know the news now, it is not too late. The army has been busy with changing its uniforms during this period, which is equally important.
