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

Travel from the Citadel to the door we used to go to.

Our pets returned to the Demon Realm Forest when they reached the door.

There's no more fighting.

I left a message to Bijak, who is a good person, saying, "Perhaps you won't be leaving today, so please tell my friend." It's okay to be late.

"--Okay, here we are!" This is Gallia, the Imperial Capital of the Rogald Empire. ”

Hmmm, the Demon King can use convenient magic. Can this door be placed indefinitely?

The Spirit King asked, looking at the door that had just passed through.

"There is a restriction that it is only within its own territory, but as long as you like it, you can do it." I could return to the Demon Realm Forest as I had just returned my people. However, on the other hand, if you feel like it, you can come to me in an instant, so you can't use anyone but me. "

When he said that, he nodded.

That's good. Drawing a line between "others" and "yourself" is something that must certainly be done if you are to stand on the top. When it becomes ambiguous, it puts itself at risk. If you have a family, it would be important to take such measures. Well, it's impossible to mislead Leficios' eyes into the creatures of this world, so if you step in, no one will ever come back. "

That's true.

The only sign of getting close is that he's getting close to me before I have a dungeon.

"Yeah, but as far as I'm concerned, I don't want to rely on him." Um... I'm still weaker, but I want to protect him if I can. "

"... I see." You truly love me. "

I was somewhat embarrassed by the Spirit King's somewhat smiling voice, and I kept on scratching my cheeks and making my words misleading.

"Oh, that's better! Look, it's the Imperial City." Can we start here? "

Um, please.

As I talked about it, I introduced myself to the inside of the Imperial City.

Thanks to the citadel city commander's contact, butlers and maids are waiting everywhere and getting around is easy.

- Well, while I was breathing, I didn't know anything about this castle at all, so I asked them to show me the castle!

When I thought about it, the place I knew in this castle was the throne room, the former emperor's laboratory, and the conference room, so I asked the castle's deacon-like majestic man to guide me, and I also enjoyed sightseeing the Imperial Castle.

No, it would have been amazing if you hadn't told the butler about it.

The skills of me and the Spirit King, who did not change their complexion one by one and showed no tension, and showed me a gentle and polite guide at all times, are something to be commended.

I was taught what a professional is. Normally, the description of the castle was also interesting.

I'm the Emperor, the top man in the land, and that butler will get a promotion or a raise. Absolutely.

It's my first time seeing a human structure nearby. It's quite interesting. "

Just traveling through various places, you still like these kinds of things, the Spirit King who takes a detailed look at the furniture placed, the walls, the columns, the architectural style, etc.

It makes me happy to see something interesting in this way.

Well, it was a castle that I wasn't involved in at all.

Well, it's interesting to see it this way.

Isn't this the main castle, my lord?

"Yes, but it's a decoration." I don't know. This is my territory, I'm definitely the Chief Officer, and I'll protect you if anything happens, but that's it. If you ask me if I rule here, I can only answer "no". "

So even if I wanted to see a lot because it seemed interesting, I was sorry that I was at work, so I stopped walking around on my own.

In short, I don't have the feeling of "my own house" in this castle.

Is there anyone in someone else's house who can see deep down? I don't think so.

Ku, Ku, I see. Do you rule without reigning? You're a good ruler, aren't you? "

No, it's just troublesome.

It's definitely not such a big thing.

Speaking of which, it might be time for you to show it to my boys once.

Actually, I've never brought any of our faces here.

It was simply dangerous, but even though the political situation was not stable, I thought that even if the Emperor's family and the castle were to explore with me, I would not make a good face.

I don't give a shit about how much disgust I get, but I don't want my family, especially the toddlers, to feel uncomfortable.

However, although things related to "human supremacy" have not yet subsided, it seems that it is gradually settling down in Japan, and although it is gradually but surely there is more interaction between other races.

It seems that not only young girls but also adults are interested in the Rogald Empire, so I think it's okay to come around the castle to play now.

... yes, there's also the Spirit King.

I don't know what this person's plans are going to be, but when I hear about it, I may be able to call the people around my house tomorrow and have dinner with me.

--What are you thinking? A soldier runs over to the butler who was guiding us and hears something.

The butler nodded and opened his mouth to me.

"May I, Your Majesty?" One thing, I want to put it in your ear. "

What's the matter?

"Yes, actually, Final-sama (...) contacted us to arrive in the Imperial City in about an hour."

◇◇◇

─ Demon Realm King!

"Hey, Yuki. Looks like you've done some hard work."

As usual, the superior with an invisible face --- Demon Realm King Final.

What, you don't see people today?

"That's my job originally, so it doesn't matter... what happened to you?" Are you working too? "

Yeah, actually, I got a call that the ruins were about to be unearthed, so I was planning to come over here before I could see how they were doing.

"The ruins..."

"That's right, you just went to the rescue." Actually, according to Shen-kun, it seems to be a place with some interesting records, so I thought it would lead to the future, so I let him take over his business and continue the excavation. Well, when I was on the airship heading this way, I got a report that the defense mechanism there was moving and the citadel was in danger, but I was a little anxious about the boulders. "

Shen, the current name of the former Emperor Shendra-Gundor-Rogald.

She was supposed to be executed, so she changed her name.

... I see.

Even though the reunion with him was a coincidence, was it half a natural flow?

"So..."

And the demon king turned his face to the spirit king and bowed down.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Final = Leginelli = Saturnia. You're the famous Spirit King, aren't you?"

I don't know if it's famous or not. After all, the spirit king Ig = Drajir. Are you the king of the demon world today? ”

"Yes, I have been appointed king for a disproportionate amount of time." I didn't expect to see you in such a place with the great wise man who crotches the world and shows up at the festivals of history. Do you know Yuki-kun? "

"Hmm, there's something in this guy's family." I visited the Witchcraft Forest and got to know them. It's just a coincidence that we met today. I heard that there was an interesting country in the south, and I was intrigued and came close to it. "

”I see, so... hey, Yuki's network is incredible”

"I think so myself."

At some point, I met more than half of the kings of this continent, and I knew quite a few of them.

This is where I would be if I could make it.

"What is it, Yuki-kun?" That face? "

”No, I thought you'd be able to speak with such a fearful mouth”

Oops, I'm curious to know how you feel about me.

"You in me are a blonde demon with a black belly."

“Thank you for being honest with me. I'm glad to feel your friendship."

The Demon Realm King might return it without breaking his meek face.

Oh, that's it.

”So... it looks like your strength has grown tremendously, too.”

Yeah. It was a little bit of a race evolution, and I became the [Overlord].

"Hmm... Race evolution is unlikely to happen to the human species, but it's you there, okay?" Gradually, I don't know what the right answer is to call you Yuki. "

I think it's the same for me.

My tribe is currently the [Overlord].

Externally, however, it is now called "Demon Emperor", and from the standpoint of the dungeon owner, it is also "Demon King".

In addition, there was also the "Dragon King". It's hardly an honorary position, but it's the only role you have.

Unfortunately, I have too many titles to worry about what I should say.

Personally, I was wondering if I could pass with the [Demon King] or the [Demon Emperor] in the Rogald Empire... no, is [Conqueror Emperor] right now?

Well, it sounds like it doesn't suit me.

Even so, at the time of the Demon Emperor, it was quite a bit.

"... for now, I think I'll do it in the [Demon Emperor] as I've always done in public." "The 'Overlord' is the name of the race, but 'Demon King' and 'Emperor' are part of the job, so it would be more appropriate if you called yourself out there."

I'll make you known as the [Conqueror Emperor] because you're the [Conqueror King].

"Please stop, I think it's not suitable at the moment already." I don't want you to become a bigger title anymore. "

"Really?... I think I look pretty good." That's for sure, 'King!' or 'Emperor!', but isn't there anything uncomfortable about you being in that position...? Strangely, it feels like you're coming right away. "

"What the hell is that?"

"Ku, Ku, I understand what you're trying to say. This man has nothing to do with power. I can't put it in words well."

Does the Spirit King still think so?

I suddenly feel a little itchy at the words of both of them.

... by the way, even though the Spirit King is a Spirit, he looks like an ordinary person.

No, I wondered if others recognized it with the robe and cane floating alone, but even though I didn't have any particular power of the Spirit, I could still see the Spirit King from the beginning.

If this much power is condensed, can it be seen without any particular ability?

Yeah, I feel that way. It was disastrous.

Calamitous.

What a persuasive word.

"... so, Demon Realm King. You've been here for a while on business, right?" It's pretty relaxed, but is it okay? "

"Huh? Of course. The Spirit King is more important than the ruins!" This is an opportunity that may or may not be in my lifetime. I don't know about official business. "

"I've noticed recently, but you want to do it as much as you want."

"I want you to say you're a free man." The soul becomes free and immortal. If you want to live a long and enjoyable life, you need to do it. "

The Demon Realm King shrugged his shoulders in a smile he couldn't read.

Well, I guess it's true that the Spirit King is an Ultra Rare Character, and I know that I'm the first.

It might be better to say Super Ultra Rare.

But, in addition to the Spirit King, I wonder if he's here.

... this is a good opportunity.

"... I mean, Demon Realm King. Can you think that you have time today?"

"? Yeah, I'm going to turn the original schedule around later. So...... Spirit King, would you mind if I join you here?"

Of course I don't mind, meeting new people and exchanging words is one of the pleasures of old bones.

The Spirit King nodded.

Alright, then---it's a good opportunity, can I bring my people along?

"Yuki! Your family? Fine, fine, come and call me!"

Ho ho, that's exciting.
