Episode 67

After reading the Demon King's letter, I looked up at the mausoleum.

You've lost a lot of confidence, Demon King.

It's tricky that everyone who is depressed seems to have fun only with the dead person.

Are you reincarnation somewhere?

Is it somewhere in this world?

Then everyone will go looking for it?

No one answers.

I lost my letter and wiped my eyes.

Then I took a deep breath and bowed to the mausoleum.

Just like the Demon King was a lifetime Demon Lord, I'll live as a Deputy Deputy Lifelong.

Apparently, I've lost my chance to resign as a deputy forever.

Demon King, leave the rest to us.

Just a deputy will do something.

After returning to the castle, I decided to clear up the first problem.

"Teacher, please be the Demon King soon."

"Don't say nothing"

The sage Gomoviroa was flapping on his bed. It's like a child.

"I'm not a king's vessel. I'm just a researcher and a human. It's impossible."

"Please don't whine when you're a good year. Do you want to destroy the Demon King's army as it is? There are so many humans involved, so I won't be able to retreat soon afterwards."

The teacher holds the pillow and bulges his cheeks.

"If you say so much, it would be fine if you became a demon king."

"I'm me !?"

"A hero who defeated the true hero, and a servant who built the magic city Luneheight.

"Speaking of that, isn't the master the oldest guru when the Demon King's army was launched? It's the world's best magician."

But the teacher does not admit it.

"I slept when I was crucial, but this would look like usurpation."

"That's not the case. I was asleep at the moment."

In spite of my persuasion, the teacher swings his head sideways.

"I-ya-ya!"

"A child?"

"I'm not good at going out in front of people. I'm going to have to go out in front of humans in the future.

It was difficult for the teacher to know him.

But I've been with the teacher for a long time, so I know it.

I think the teacher is probably spoiled by me.

He lost all his friends who made the Demon Army together, and his surroundings are expected to be the next Demon King.

A master is a strong magician, a great researcher and a dedicated educator, but neither a politician nor a military person. It is a type that is not suitable for such a thing.

That's why the teacher is now trying to consolidate his determination while chatting with me like this.

I felt like that, so I went out with my teacher.

"There's a good way, Master."

"What is it?"

I pulled out a life-size puppet from the closet in my teacher's room for magical practice.

"Let's make this a demon king"

"What is it?"

The teacher who heard my explanation nodded when he hummed.

"I see. Only when you appear in front of humans does the puppet take over."

"Yes. You can do as much as you like in Halibote, and don't mind being assassinated. The teacher can hide in the shadows and speak while reading the script."

This is a pattern I've seen several times in previous manga.

What is sitting on the throne is just a puppet, and the true Demon King is a beautiful girl who refraines like an aide.

Yeah, this is it.

The teacher shows a little thought.

"I see. Humans are afraid, but what if they could hide in the shade?"

"Well?"

The teacher was still thinking a little, but nodded.

Apparently, while he was chatting without love, he was determined.

"The Demon King's army, built by the Demon Kings throughout their lives, can't be destroyed by my selfishness.

"That's why I respect me!"

The teacher walked over to me and clasped my hand with a small hand.

"But I'm sorry to myself. I'll start with you and have other disciples help me."

"Of course, Master. Let's pass on the Demon King's will."

"Um, let's do it."

The teacher smiled.

New Demon King Gomoviroa was born.

This news was accepted very smoothly by the entire Demon King's army.

The predecessor, Demon King, always spoke of his successor.

Therefore, everyone in the Demon King's army seemed to understand that "If there is something in the Demon King, someone will succeed it."

The master is the oldest member who was involved in the launch of the Demon King Army. Although he can only get serious for a short time, he is almost invincible until he runs out of magic.

Since the leaders of the Third Division are the master's disciples, there is no objection that the respected teacher will be the Demon King.

The Second Division has also been helped twice by the teachers on the Northern Front. Thanks to him, she is treated as a saint. This doesn't seem to be a problem either.

And the 1st Division also supported the master's succession to the Demon King. He respected the Devil's will. In addition, since the 1st Division has many old stocks, there are many who are closely related to the teacher.

Thanks to that, summarizing was as easy as surprise.

The Demon King was thus led to a new Demon King, Gomoviroa. A coronation ceremony, which memorializes the King, will take place soon.

However, the third division's leader was vacant, as the master was to attack the Demon King.

"Who will do it?"

"I wish I could do it"

"No, I'm the first division's deputy.

Being a division chief is too much for me to do.

The master and the teacher looked down, and said,

"Let's ask Ms. Melene."

"It's a rule"

If you're Melene, you'll hear what the other disciples say.

I stayed in the 1st Division and continued to work as an aide to the Demon King. Considering diplomacy, it is easier to move.

Senior Melene later complained, but ignored it because it was a new Demon King's edict.

"A little Vite, why the boss who beat the hero is just a deputy secretary! Do the division commander!"

"I don't want to be a senior officer of Melene."

If I decline, Senior Melene turns to Filneel.

"If you're a weid, you're really cute! I'll have Phil do it!"

"I couldn't do more! I'm too inexperienced as a teacher's apprentice or as a general of the Demon King's army."

Give up and quietly lead the Third Division, Vampire Queen.

Despite the pain in his heart, we decided to continue the battle with the Demon King's will.

Create a country where demons can live with humans.

We will continue to pursue the dream drawn by the Devil King Friedenrichter.

But before that, I was asked by the teacher for "a little help".

What is it?
