About two days before I was fishing in the river.It's the same time we started living on our own.

Mao-chan sitting on the throne of the Great Hall sighs as she looks at some of the paperwork at Demon King Castle in Wenguis, King of the Harmony Kingdom.

What's wrong, demon king?

A man in a human figure with mixed gray and blue skin and an eye patch on his left eye asks Ma-chan.

Ah... Cerberus.I didn't think there'd be enough talent. "

"Are you the Devil again?It would be a waste of time to read the resumes of the lowest officials. "

Since the beginning of the border dispute with the Kingdom of Wistaria, Mao-chan has been looking through the documents of newcomers who have served in the castle of the Demon King and offices everywhere.A few dozen of them were summoned to the hall to meet, but none of them were satisfactory.

"Why did you think to read such a document in the first place?

Cerberus asks as he goes further.

"Um... Even though the Kingdom of Wistaria is weakening every day, there is still harassment.As long as Hallas is protecting us, we demons will not be able to enter the Kingdom of Wistaria at ease.We're looking for someone who can fight Harass.No matter what I do, I have to avenge that country. "

"The Demon King has also changed." I used to love peace, but now I'm going to move my army with revenge.I like to fight, so I don't mind. "

"My concubine still loves peace.But I can't forgive that country alone. I don't know why, but it's not just personal grievances that drive my concubine.

Mao-chan puts her paperwork on her elbow and sighs.

"If you're a talented person, you're here!

An armed man standing opposite Cerberus points at himself with his thumb.

"Oh, General Matthew."

Matthew was originally a man who served the kingdom of Wistaria, but exiled a few years ago.He was said to be the best general in the kingdom of Wistaria for his courage in the war with the Crow Nation, but for a few moments he was about to be executed by his family and fled.Mao-chan bought the talent, appointed it as a general in exile, pushed out the opposition of his minister and forgave the knife and placed it in the Great Hall of Demon King Castle.

"General Matthew is also capable, but not enough.I need someone to take revenge on Hallas.

"Monster King, aren't you tired of reading your resume every day?

Um...

Mao-chan puts the paperwork together and lifts it up.The secretary bat comes in and grabs the paperwork with his feet and goes somewhere.

Cerberus says.

"As General Matthew said, the Demon King is tired.Why don't you take a look at the other paperwork?

"Uh-huh, let's do that."

That's how Cerberus handed over the documents.

"What is this?There are pictures of men lined up. "

"This is a good match.The Demon King is almost 400 years old and at the right age to marry.It's time to make a wedding partner and a successor. "

"Succession?"

Mao-chan looks at the document.I'm still young, but at the moment, my successor is as young as Hagis, the eldest daughter left by my brother Haku.It would be more convenient to have your own child than to have a niece.

The paperwork includes photographs of men with good looks and the eldest son of a high-ranking minister.Mao-chan checks her face and background one by one.

"I like your face, but I also want to know your personality."

"Now let's set up some of these and meet up opportunities.Choose the man you want first. "

Hmm, let's do that.

Saying that, she is looking at the documents.Some demons are bloodthirsty, and peace-loving demons are actually a minority, including themselves.In order for your policy to be passed on to the next demon king, you must first work with your parents to educate your children well.To do this, your husband will have to choose a pacifist.In particular, the eldest son of the Minister of Finance has a reputation as a personality.Both this person and this person have similar thoughts about themselves.

I will look for someone who will be my husband. Do you feel that something is missing?I can't help but remember spending a few days in Estik.

(No, Alisa is a woman and is out of the question to marry.What are you thinking at a time like this, concubine? I'm certainly worried about that woman, but... I wonder if she's getting away.

While Mao-chan was reading the paperwork while thinking about it, soldiers rushed into the hall.

"I say, Devil King.An old man named Deggle at the castle gate wants to see the Demon King and is causing trouble!

"Oh my God, Deggle.My concubine knows him well.Get through here. "

Haha

Soldiers say so and leave the hall.Lose it, wear white clothes with gray hair, and an old man with a large cane of about his height enters the hall.This man has been in the castle since Mao-chan visited the Kingdom of Wistaria.

"My men are sorry, Deggle.Next time, I'll tell Deggle to shut up and let him through. "

"Thank you for your concern, Demon King.This is too much consideration for such a worthless old man. "

So, what can I do for you today?

"If I was doing my fortune-telling today, the results were relevant to you.I'm going to tell you that. "

"Huh?"

Mao-chan folds the documents in her hand with interest.

"Two days later, there are people fishing in a river called Homaran in Nuhivier.Use that person heavily as a minister. "

"Well, how capable is he?

"Yes, that's the person you've been looking for for all these years.I am indeed the minister of the world. "

"The minister of the world!?

Mao-chan leaves the throne without thinking.

"With him, we can fight Harass?

"Rather, it is not impossible to achieve any more."

Cerberus noticed that Ma-chan's cheeks were loosening at once.I don't know, are you serious about such a suspicious old man's fortune-telling? I will have to stop as a minister later.

"... and one more thing."

Deggle puts it in between, as if to say something important.

"That fisherman is the person you are looking for and the person you will marry in the future."

"What!?

Mao-chan, get up from the throne.The matching paperwork placed on the elbow slips under the chair.

"Well, that's the end of the divination.It is up to the Demon King to recruit or not.I look forward to the good results. "

Deggle laughs and leaves the hall behind.Mao-chan shook herself with joy for a while, then shouted at the ministers.

"You said goodbye, right?We're leaving tomorrow!Go to Nuhivier!

"Please wait, Devil King!

Cerberus stopped at a volume that Ma-chan couldn't beat.

"Are you really going to take the fortune of such a good old man?What happens to the future of this country if you use a fisherman, even if he is human?I don't think it should be used lightly and heavily. "

"What if the fisherman was a spy for the kingdom of Wistaria who would teamwork with that old man to destroy this country?

General Matthew also helps.Ma-chan denies them.

"No, that old man Deggle knows his concubine well.A trusted person who never lies.The fact that the man came all the way here to divination is a sign that something serious is going to happen.You'll have to believe it. "

That's what Mao-chan is obviously saying.

"Please calm down. There is no objective evidence that the old man can be trusted.The Demon King is too weak for the sound of talented people!

"I have seen the King's tyranny in the Kingdom of Wistaria.If the King of this country is to run away now, I have a duty to stop him!

General Cerberus and General Matthew, who said that, persuaded her to spend the night and managed to meet the fisherman in Nuhyvier before she could think about it.
