Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Which way do I go to Wang Du?

"From this city, that's the northeast direction. If you go east down the street, you're branching northeast on the way, or you can go north from a little further base."

Bloomwood asked me if I wanted to know something because it was a corner, so when I asked him where the king's capital was, he had such an answer. Northeast. Let's remember. Because of that, they don't even know Bloomwood about the whereabouts of Fangonoids. He said it was Bloomwood who told the Veritos about the fangonoids in the first place.

"Theodore said he wanted to build a friendship with this guy over here, but he's headed to King's Capital?

Olerietta tilts her neck.

"You're interested. What is the king like?

"His Majesty the Demon King? You look beautiful."

Demon King... and came. Though I don't seem to be a tyrant like the impression I get from the literal word of Orellietta. But "beautiful" in the sense of the Diabolos, so can I take it on par? The Diabolos and the humans are close, so the values about beauty and ugliness don't change that much, do they?

And you're the Demon King. It seems that the Allied Lord Beristio has also been called the Demon King because he is the Lord of the Demons, but it would be different from that. This world seems to be called the Demon Realm among the inhabitants here... but I am convinced to say that I am the Demon King because I am the King of the Demon Realm.

Since the designation Demon Realm is by the Parteniaras, it is likely that the designation has spread via Fangonoids.

"Have the Veritos seen His Majesty the Demon King, too?

"Not directly, but... if you live in some urban area, you'll mostly see it reflected through a thought crystal."

You've got another word I don't know. A crystal of thought. Somehow, I can guess.

"In the central tower of the city, that crystal...... could it be?

You had the same idea as me, and Rosemary has a similar guess on the bridge of the Sirius. Bloomwood continued his words as if to back it up.

"In the center of this city...... have you seen the crystals on the tower?

"Oh. There you are."

Nodding at the words of Bloomwood.

"That's the crystal of thought. It is possible to gather our thoughts on His Majesty the Demon King and use our power in various ways. I can say that that crystalline glow expresses everyone's gratitude, respect and loyalty to His Majesty the Demon King's reign and to the peace of the kingdom. Don't be used in such ways as reflecting His Majesty the Demon King when speaking to the people, or releasing a technique to repel dangerous demons that are usually insurmountable in battle."

I see...... The thought crystals on the tower did emit brilliance. I can't even compare it because I don't know any other examples of how much of a reign that is the result of... I think it's a variety of advantages.

I guess when it comes to actual management, it is left to the equivalent of a tauto lord who houses the city, but if those people lay down a regime of injustice or something, it is likely that it will appear in the glow of the ideological crystals that are found in individual cities. So you have to do your job properly.

Conversely... if the Demon King is the Dark Lord, the crystals of thought in all urban areas will creep in parallel at the same time?

It's interesting to note that all of them use ideas that can be directed in a different way than the people and demons of the Moon.

"I used to be a martial artist serving my country. Well... I'm probably more familiar with the situation than the general public. I don't know if it's the same knowledge that still works."

"Oh. That would help if you let me hear a lot about it. Of course, it's okay to talk about it."

The operation and nature of the country's system and ideological crystals… There are various concerns, but it is the end of the day if there is something that makes you feel worse about talking. Bloomwood nods in my response.

That's why I listen to a lot of things.

Some urban areas are arranged with a morrow crystal of thought, and such places are staffed with Taisho appointed by the center to represent the government according to the land.

Though Taishou's authority is quite great, it seems that the management operation of Thought Crystals is strictly divided with another official being placed as Crystal Administrator. Both positions were recognized by the Demon King, so if the reputation of the people is poor, they may be dismissed.

Not the aristocracy, but the election of representatives of each of the martial officers and civilians from each race. Serve the demon king in the king's capital to divide up actual politics.

It's not like we're royal or anything about demon kings, but we find a successor in some way. Will it bind the multiethnic? Maybe there's something similar to Einfeus.

"Because His Majesty the Demon King has not had a replacement for a long time. I can only say that I'm not sure about the rules and conditions of succession."

And Bloomwood says.

"... I guess you have some kind of unique decision or criterion. Though you will choose your successor accordingly."

When Claudia said it, everyone on the bridge was nodding about whether they agreed or not.

As for the present Demon King, it will be quite a long term administration. It seems that it is more the role of watching Taishou and Crystal Administrator's actions than deeply involved in actual politics, and if anything, it is also the Demon King who deals with Thought Crystals.

Is this the idea behind the long term administration? Don't feel like you're pinching a one-cushion so that people's grievances aren't directed at the demon king himself, even if you're out of business.

It is undeniable that there are some disparities between rich and poor and social identities when it comes to actual politics, but is it also an impression that it is acceptable?

In fact, policies to protect the weak also seem to be in place, and financial support was also provided by the application when Bloomwood made the choice to quit the martial arts to raise the orphaned Veritos.

So is this illness. Even with regard to the materials of magic drugs needed by the center, we haven't even made the purchase by wielding power. There's something I can't say because I don't know how to use magic enhancers in the first place, but the political system laid by the Demon King seems generally good when it comes to governance.

"I mean around this country...... what about outside?

"Outside the border - you're not well known. There are many dangerous zones and powerful demons, and they cannot spread their prints in a wide way. There are also dotted areas dominated by barbarians like Goblins and Oaks."

Sheila, who was listening to Bloomwood, waves her cover at the bridge.

"Mm-hmm. Even in the demonic world, troublemakers"

"All in all, you're stronger than the Rungard side because the environment of the demonic world is the environment. Even when the concubines were in the demonic world, there were many evolutionary individuals who burned their hands... but they may have developed more sophisticated entanglements over the years."

"When you drive to a place called the border, and you're building this many cities, the Demon Kingdom seems to have a pretty good advantage."

That's how Osgrave analyzed it, too, Parteniara said. Because of this, the ruins of El Bellure, etc. will be treated as a frontier from the land of the Demon King. Well, it's the kind of land Behemoth shows up on.

"Well...... I know it's hard to get used to when the environment is different. We had the means to travel, so we were able to come and investigate, but until we got across, this situation was opaque."

And let it be said that it came from outside the border by the Sirius.

Was it a flying ship?

"That's right. It's hidden a little away from the city to avoid confusion... so it might be a good idea to invite Mr. Bloomwood there for a meal."

"That sounds... fun"

Bloomwood looked surprised at first by my words, but immediately broke his expression and laughed face to face with Verito and the others. Then it's settled. Invite everyone to join us for a meal on the Sirius.

It is not until we gather some more information that we decide on our policy towards the Demon King.
