A Misunderstood Mentor

"What's wrong? Mr. Takumi."

Leia worried and talked to me during dinner preparations.

I guess it was because it was up in the sky, even though I could always concentrate only when I cooked rice.

"Nothing. I was just thinking."

"Really? Mr. Takumi, I'm sure he had an unexpectedly grand idea for me and others."

"Yeah, you got it, you're right"

I'm not in the mood for the usual lines, either. It's a bar read.

I know what caused it.

It's Alice.

I can't hide my confusion and shock at her joining the Alliance faction.

"Hey, Alice..."

Stop trying to talk to Leia.

Maybe no one knows what Alice thinks.

Ten years ago, everything remains a mystery as to why Alice only missed me and why she mistakes me for the weakest person in history as the strongest person in history.

"What is it? What's wrong with Master Alice?

"No, it's nothing."

Look at Kyoton and me. Look at Leia seriously.

How likely is she to be the Demon King?

Leia's technique of divine descent makes her body host to an ancient god.

Maybe you left the Demon King before you knew it?

Why did Alice send Leia to me in the first place?

Ten years ago, when I protected Alice in the dungeon, suppose there was also a Demon King there, Alice and the Demon King...

"Uh, Mr. Takumi. Oh, not really, when you're seen, oh, my God."

"Ahhh. Sorry."

Distract from Leia, who turned bright red.

The odds of Leia being the Demon King feel pretty high, when it comes to the ten levels, about seven.

"Oh, uh, did you have anything on your face?

"Hey, it's nothing. I just wanted to see your face for a second. Oh, yes, hey, no. That's not what I meant."

Each other, we get depressed without seeing our faces anymore.

Watching Leia like that makes me think she's not a demon king.

No, maybe I just want to believe that.

"What is a flying hole bear? It's sinister."

"... I'll stop that cockroach."

See King Rick and Goblin playing chess all morning and all night.

There's got to be a lot of stories with Rick, but we're not talking at all.

What happened to Sasha and Bats, and have you been partying with Nurbee ever since?

Even if he talks during chess, Rick won't listen properly just to keep quiet.

"... it's a royal flying machine."

"Ugh, that hand, can't you wait? Rick."

"... no wait. Jasla, you."

Oh, my God, Rick, what are you, Jasla? It's not super friendly.

I get a little jealous of you two.

Well, the odds of these two being demon kings are pretty low.

About two for King Goblin and three for Rick.

"What do you say, my sword attack? One blow also crushes the rocks, rocking the heavens and the earth, this power."

"Shut up. Shut him up."

The Mad Warrior (Berserker) Zach and the Beast King Miakis, who have been together for a long time.

Aren't we getting along pretty well?

We know Miakis is not a demon king.

Exactly. Wouldn't you hate for the Demon King to get inside Zach, too?

Zach's odds are unlimited, like one near zero.

Chiharu after that?

Go for a peek at Chihal sleeping in the cave.

Happily round in the straw.

Think about Chihal.

Perhaps the most suspicious in terms of suspicion is Chiharu.

Adult personality to show occasionally.

Is that maybe not the personality of the Demon King?

"Munyu, Chakumi, Ippaki"

Chihal smiles as she says her cute bedtime words.

Yeah. I don't like Chihal being the Demon King or anything. Reduce the probability from 8 to 4.

Of the six remaining, this is what the five Demon King odds are.

And the last one.

"Hey, Karna. Is there a chance there's a demon king in me?

Ask Karna the Devil's Sword.

Yeah, at the end of the day, it's me.

"The odds of a demon king in Takun are totally zero. A vessel in a normal human being exists in Takun. Heh. Empty Yanen. Strength and spirit (astral) bodies can stay there without vessels."

"... right"

Like happy sad, but now the rest is squeezed into eleven.

"Can Karna feel the sign of the demon king Miakis felt?

Karna, the Devil's Sword with the ability to suck power, is quite sensitive to the signs of power.

"Just for a moment, I felt the wavering of power during the Decathlon. But I didn't know who put that out. That's how small it is."

Is it still true?

The Demon King deliberately gave a small sign.

To let Miakis know I'm here.

The purpose is, perhaps, to mistake me for the Demon King.

Doubt turns to certainty.

I am embedded in the Demon King.

"Takun, what are you thinking?

……

I couldn't answer Karna.

Why would the Demon King put me in such an eye?

No, there shouldn't be any contact between me and the Demon King in the first place.

If there is only one thing, there may have been a demon king in the dungeon that picked up Alice ten years ago.

The demon king of the original ancestors.

Its true appearance has never even been seen by Miakis, the Four Heavens King.

I was meeting that demon king before I knew it?

I breathed heavily and exhaled heavily.

"Maybe the time has come to move from this mountain."

Alice's thoughts, and those of the Demon King.

I guess all the answers are still in that place.

In the Great Labyrinth of the Demon King (Labyrinth) where Alice and I met.
