The people who went to resuce the hostage
Have to fight the hostage who is equipped with weapons made by the kidnappers on the directions of hostage
.
And thus in reality saving the kidnappers from the hostage
... You know, up until now I never actually bothered to count the Ten Elders and make sure that they're actually ten like they're described. Does anyone have a list of the ones that have been identified?
@MarqFJA87 Someone help if I forgot someone
1:Red Syberian
2:Alraune
3:Leonard
4oseidon
5:Elder Dragon
6:M.O.T.H.E.R.
Not sure if Needle Spinemadillo (Spine-chan) is one
@Cypher27: No, Spine-chan doesn't count, he's just a "regular" demon.
EDIT: Checked the Japanese Wikipedia, and it actually has a list. I'll put question marks next to those whose names don't ring any bells to me at all.

[*] Demon Monk
[*] Red Siberian Kai
[*] Neo Alraune
[*] Sand Dragon (?)
[*] Flame Dragon
[*] Hades (yeah, Twilight's big brother is one of the Ten Elders; I guess that's why he's called "the traitor" by Neo Alraune in his debut chapter)
[*] Poseidon
[*] m.o.t.h.e.r (specifically spelled in all lower-case letters)

So the Demon King doesn't count... and not only are we only shown 8 (previously 7), the Google translation of the Ten Elders' entry description actually says that "in reality, the number is less than 10, and it's viewed that the Princess attends the conference instead". Either they didn't find suitable people to fill in the last two spots, or they died off-panel and were never revived for some reason.
