Confirming that there was no one in the hallway, I left Sasha's room looking like a king.

Well. I'm not sleepy at all yet, and I'm back where I was. Then I guess I'll go home to King's Castle once. I wonder if the castle owner has been absent for two days, and I'm worried that Henri hasn't revealed anything again. I have a lot to report.

"Spells [Moments Moving]!

Shortly after, I returned to the Great Hall of King's Castle. Even though it's only been two days, I kind of feel like I've been home a long time. In the meantime, I sat down on the throne.

"... hmm?

I dropped my gaze down, and what a look there was of Henri on her knees. Naturally, I didn't tell anyone I was coming back. Does that mean Henri has been kneeling in this great hall with no one...?

"Ha! Dear Yout, you're home!?"

You realize I exist, Henri looks up at me. Eventually, out of its eyes began to pour and tears.

"I've been waiting a thousand autumnal thoughts for this time to come. I've never felt happier...!!"

"... um. I'm glad to hear it."

I just didn't see him for two days, but he's a reactionary like a decade-long reunion. Did you miss me so much? [M]

"Ugh..."

Then you even glared, Henri disfigured and put one hand on the floor.

"What's up, Henri? Are you okay?"

"Also, I'm sorry. You're relieved to see Master Ute's face, his hunger has suddenly struck me..."

"Hungry? Are you eating properly?

"No. I thought it would be rude for me to dine at the end of the day, the closest thing to Euth, when Euth was committed to the investigation in human territory, and I decided to fast until Euth returned."

What's the point in that!? Nothing. Eating dinner isn't rude or anything, is it?!? The high level of loyalty is going in a strange direction!!

"I don't need to fast or anything just because I'm still away. Eat your meal properly. What if I can't keep my skin clean?"

"Ki... beautiful skin...!? Yut said my skin is beautiful...!!"

Henri then lost her mind with her eyes as a heartmark and fell on the floor with Pathan. Something's happened before. Something like this. Extreme hunger would be one factor this time though.

I cast an [all-purpose healing] spell on Henri and revived him from stunning.

"Ha! No way, I was losing my mind!? Sorry, extra effort to Lord Ute...!!"

"Never mind. Fill your hunger first. Spell [Creation]!

I generated a hot dock in [Creation] and gave it to Henri.

"Give me this...?

"Mm-hmm. I can't guarantee the flavor because it's from the spell. Or don't you really like hot docks?

"No such thing, no pharmacism!! My favorite food has just become a hot dock!! I'm no longer exaggerating to say that I was born to eat this hot dock!!"

Such a big deal.

"Ugh. Delicious, very delicious...!!"

"That's more than anything."

Henri eats the hot dock I produce in tears. Kind of looks like I'm looking at someone who was shipwrecked in the mountains and hadn't eaten anything for a few days.

I was anxious to see if it would fit Henri's mouth because all the demons always ate was grotesque stuff that was purple drooling soup or carcasses of rat-like creatures, but for once human food would be okay, too.

"Especially the exquisite thickness and solidity of this wiener. The boulder is a hot dock for you...!!"

It sounds so sad. Well, let's just say that.

"Henri, I have something to tell you. I want you to listen to me while you eat."

"What!? I can't work such disrespect, such as listening to Yout while eating. Go-ho, ge-ho!

"Don't panic. I don't care about the rest, so you can eat slowly."

"I care, it hurts..."

I told Henri that, as a result of my trip to human territory, it turned out that it was the Seven Star Angel who was taking away human souls.

By the way, it is naturally a secret that I have temporarily become one of Sasha and the others. If Henri finds out that I have a cooperative relationship with a human being, who is the champion, he may end up dead.

"The Seven Stars Angel brings the souls of all humans... You asked me yesterday to search the gates that angels use because of that background."

"That's what I'm talking about"

"But why would a Seven Star angel do that?

"We don't know that yet. But it would certainly be gathering human souls for some purpose. To protect humans - Gohon. They must be destroyed if they are not to be taken from the rest of us."

"Yes, I agree"

Dangerous. Dangerous, I almost got my heart out for a second. If I, the king, uttered something about "protecting humans", it would be a big problem.

"So it's Henri. What happened to the search for the gate you asked for?

When I asked, Henri leaned down with a dark look.

"... I am truly sorry. We are currently mobilizing 5,000 demons of the reigning army to find them, but we have yet to report any discoveries."

"Right. If only."

I wasn't very disappointed because I didn't expect much from you originally. After all, "Gate" is the angels blocking any perception from the outside with some kind of spell, or "Gate" itself does not exist on earth in the first place...

Either way, it looks like the fastest way to get it out of Sasha in return for cooperating in obtaining The Mad Devil's Hand Mirror.

"If we fail to discover by today, all 5,000 demons will try to harm themselves to atone for the sins that did not meet your expectations -"

"You don't have to!

I accidentally made my voice absurd. I knew you were right to come back once. I almost lost a lot of demons in the championship army.

"Were there any anomalies while the rest were not in the castle?

"Yes, especially...... Ah."

"Um, is something wrong?

"No, it's not an anomaly, but there was one report. Today, Yuna returns to the castle after her mission."

Yuna. Henri, it must have been the name of the third demon to follow Peta. I was wondering what kind of demon you were, and you came back just in time.

"Probably will be back soon. I'll tell him to come to this hall.

"Um, I asked for it"

Then wait thirty minutes. When I thought it was too late to say it was soon, I heard a knock on the big hall door. When I said "in," the door opened quietly.
