Chapter 228: Witch’s Prophecy (7)
Once we finished dancing, we were applauded from here and there throughout the ballroom.
The locations in which the applause came from and the people who sent it made it evident what the current composition of power within the Demon Lord army was like.
The group that applauded the most energetically was the Plains Faction. On one half, they were showing their respect and affection to Barbatos, and, on the other half, they were praising the greatest advisor their faction had ever given birth to.
However, Beleth and Zepar looked displeased that the position as Barbatos’ partner had been taken.
“Kuh! I was the one who escorted Her Excellency when Brother wasn’t around.”
“Does Her Excellency prefer schemers over warriors……!?”
The two Demon Lords had competed for the position as her partner for centuries, but they both shed tears of blood today. Pathetically.

To them, Dantalian was a rose that had miraculously bloomed in the Plains Faction which used to only be filled with ignorant warmongers, so I was also their only conscience.
