A Demon Lord’s Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

"... Symbol?

"Yeah, yeah. More to the point, the symbol of 'power' on this side. There's this strong kid on my side, too, you know. I can't ask for this from the kids who are on my side. We need a child who is a demon and possesses great power to be a flag."

Hmmm...... I see.

"So you're saying," Be a bitch to me, "right?

"Yeah, that's right."

Wow... he snorted lightly.

"If it's told that we have the right people over here, we can be vigilant over there and blunt our movements. If the other move is delayed, it will only delay, and there will be more measures I can take. In addition, if I can draw your attention, it will be easier to predict trends and limit their movements."

"Well, I guess so"

If that happens, it's obvious whether to come check on the presence of me or send a surveillance officer who suddenly shows up, so I guess it's possible if it's also the trick to hit the hand that took the move backwards.

"... I got the story. I also figured out what you wanted me to do. - Well, let's talk more specifically."

So I, intentionally, grinned horribly and continued the words.

"Don't say what you screwed up. I know which one of you wins, but I don't (...). I'm being honest with you about killing each other on your own. The demon kingdom will be destroyed. And yet you're trying to make me act so visible and dangerous, so naturally, you're bringing me the benefits I deserve, right?

Well, if the demons are my enemies, they're not going to work with him.

However, it is also information obtained from Hood's words, so it cannot be peppered.

"Yes, you are."

"Haloria, will you just shut up a little longer?

"... Ha, excuse me"

Hood, who was listening nearby to the dazzling intimidation of the Demon King, says so and refrains from sidelining again.

"That, of course. I think the allies are business partners. Alliances are born because they have mutual interests."

"Then talk fast. So, what do you say? Can you offer me a benefit that I want to cooperate with, or let me cooperate with?

"Hehe, Ma, listen to me. First, information. The children of the devil tribe should be enemies to you too. Let me give you information about the enemy one by one."

"Oh, well, that's natural."

We're forming an alliance.

I've come here for the least amount of information.

"And next. I've heard reports that you have a child problem and a wife. [M] And I also heard that you wanted to take the kids on a trip to a rare place in the demonic world, and you were talking to the maids who came all the way here with you."

"Oh, you talked about that."

"So if you cooperate with me, I'll talk to all the sub and beast tribes so they can travel freely to other races of autonomous communities, etc. If you're a regular traveler, just like you can include sacred places like you'll never get in, right? If you want a face-to-face connection with the great kids, let's do it."

"Hey, what... ugh!?

Suddenly he's coming...

"Naturally, I'll give you a tourist guide in the demonic world, too? For once, I am the king of the demon kingdom appointed by my predecessors. I have the power there, so I'll make sure you let me in, except for the old place."

Ku...... boulder, you just said.

You really understand the point of getting a critical hit on me.

"... from the way it looks, other than that, it seems like it's still there?

"Of course, that's not all. You must be the Demon King, the Lord of the Labyrinth, right? So, the labyrinth says it will consume food and grow, so let's have something to feed your designation. If they say the life of the Demon Clan, well, it's a little rough, but I'll still try to get it ready, okay?

"No, I don't want such a noisy mon"

Sure, life can grow a dungeon.

When you say something like that, I want you to stop because I sound like a great evil parent.

"... right... then give me the money"

"Oh! That's an easy and good order."

"Oh, no, you can't put money on it, not real money. I want a substitute that's going to be gold."

"Okay. I'll have enough gold and silver treasures to fill a room. And then... you know, girls."

"I don't need that"

"Oh, yeah. I heard you were pretty good at color."

"Hey, don't. That's a misunderstanding."

Hey, I just got a little stretched under my nose.

If it was a man, it wouldn't have to be me. Definitely.

Besides, if you get something like that, there's a future ahead of you that will definitely reincarnate into a tragic corpse.

Refi has a very good nose.

Even if you try to hide it, you'll definitely find out.

"Then let's make up for the girl's substitute reward by adding even more treasure. - How about around here?

To the inquiry of the Demon King, I often remain silent in my thoughts.

As for the story - well, you can take it.

I'm not particularly inconvenient.

Originally, if the demons were enemies, I would have crushed them, and if they would have gotten this far, it would have been a huge plus.

I would be lying if I told him that he was belly black and didn't care if his promise would be fulfilled... but if I even came up with that, I wouldn't be kidding.

That's when. Assuming he's an enemy too, he's just forcing me to rob him of my share of the profits.

... Well, to be honest, I don't want to be hostile to a guy who seems to be good at scheming or anything.

- What bothers me the most is that I don't have a good grasp on the strength and power of my enemies.

Perhaps with my status right now, most opponents can be crushed at their leisure... but I can't deny the possibility that some of the enemies have the strength and ability of a shitty demon-like creature that lives deep in the demonic forest, not even to mention the Dragon Clan.

No matter how tough I have the flesh, like when I kill a fucking dragon one day, the creature dies easily if I care about it.

... As many bandits showed up on the road, it would be easy to talk if the enemy was weak.

Shall we keep him informed around here and consult with Leila, who knows the truth, as appropriate?

... Yes, I've come up with something good.

The clown side I used in Wangdu. Aren't we going to use it over here?

It may not make sense if you've already found out who the clown side of the king's capital is when I am, but if not, you'll be able to flirt with the enemy to some extent.

Keep your status, too, a disguised status in the near future.

What's the pseudonym...... well, think again about something different from the last 'Wye'?

... No wait, if the clown side could be found out, should I just wear another mask?

But I only put the mask in the item box...

- All right, make it with your weapon smelting skills. I'll try to get the ingredients later.

Huhuhuhu, there is a mysterious masked man in the dark place of the demonic world.

And in the back he said, "What the hell is that guy!? Rumors keep spreading."

"... yes, I want to ask you one thing. You weren't the ones in the kingdom who worked backwards in Arsil, were you?

"It's not me. If it was my plan, you wouldn't find out."

That is what the King of the Demonic Realm said, smiling and very commonly.

To his confidence, I flaunt my shoulders with a bitter smile.

"-Ma, fine. Okay, let me think positively, but let me talk to my maid once."

"Oh, well, just because you say that, as far as I'm concerned, it was worth the invitation."

That's what I say, a happy grin final.

"Even if I told you, I knew you'd do something about it even if I said no?

"Well, sure, I'll just think of another way then and then. I'd have had more trouble than asking you to cooperate."

Oh... asking me to help is one of the many things I've been thinking about.

Oh, I see.

If only one measure would make everything work, the world would be fine.

"Well, shall we hear back tomorrow? Take a rest today. I'll prepare something delicious to fly off in the demon world, too. It's good to see you again, Yuki."

"... let me just say one thing, but stop pointing that disgusting grin at me. Something like this... I feel chilly"

"Oh, it's terrible. I have shown so much affection."

"Don't say dear love or anything. At least say friendship. And I'm not going to make friendships with a black belly like you. He's only a collaborator."

"Okay, okay, at all, I don't have a choice. Yuki, you're a lighthouse."

"So stop saying and acting like that. It's on me!

I'm scared they're going to dig something!!

- So, my yelling voice. Finally, my glance with the king of the demon kingdom is over.
