Story of The Ancient Demon King!

Episode 20: Hope and Despair

[Black Demon King] and Black Knight's impact overnight...

"There will be more to compensate for the malaise that occurred in your game and for the defection of Hamar, the nearby guardian, with the fact that the Black Knight protected His Majesty. I can't complain much about the people in other countries who were there."

In the conference room, important meetings were held with members such as King and George, Martin, and even Shiloh.

"Then I convinced the nations that the Black Knights were in the Kingdom of Light, so there's nothing to worry about."

"Duke Dee. Just be careful not to buy the Black Knight's discomfort. I'm counting on you."

"Of course, I'm paying close attention."

Marton laughed bitterly while putting his glasses back on and replied to George as if he were right.

"Whether you ignore Wu or not, I know the horror of hostility against him. It's that much strength to break into the imperial castle with so much ease and security. I still don't know who I am or why... but I'm happy that I wasn't from another country."

I sympathize slightly that other countries will be bothering their heads by now.

"... actually, I was thinking about the possibility that the Black Knight could be the [Knight of the Black Skull]...."

"Of course I thought about the possibility, but the armor was shaped differently, and... it wasn't similar to the way I've seen it fight before."

[Knight of the Black Skull].

The rumored knight of the [Devil King of the Isle] is a powerful enemy known to everyone with the power of the Warlord class. It is a symbol of fear among the Light kingdom's armies, wearing a body armor that looks like a skeleton of misfortune, kicking the Light kingdom's armies one after the other with a shield and sword, and bathing in blood.

"But the problem is..."

"... [Black Demon King], right?"

In Shiloh's words, the same complexion becomes uniformly bad.

Together with the hope of the Black Knight, there appeared a threat enough to crush it.

"I don't know... that much..."

The king holds his head.

I felt more powerful than I could ever have imagined, just like the people of the royal castle. It's not impossible.

For that moment, the evil and powerful magic that appeared in the tower undoubtedly swallowed everyone in the royal castle.

"... the only salvation would be to clean up the hero Lionel in the form of a demon king. If the fleeing Celestia had driven them away, the people and soldiers wouldn't be scared any more than they are now."

Hmm, let's do that.

"Yes, sir."

King Wright decides it's best and adopts Marton's plan.

Marton and the King did not speak, but the Black Knight followed the Demon King into the castle, thinking of such hopeful possibilities.

It remains unclear why the Demon King killed Lionel.

Furthermore, in Celestia's view, even [Devil King of the Isle] may show movement in this case.

"... then we will talk about his purpose and countermeasures against the [Black Demon King] himself later, and we will have a light agenda around here.... the bad boy's fraud, but he was still using magic tools. I was wondering if this matter should be strongly protested to Cougaro. My eldest son is coming soon, but why not send a messenger instead?"

Marton brings up a topic that doesn't require thought when all the headaches in reality come early rather than metaphor.

"Leave it to me. It's beautiful. I expect it to be your arm.... the usual one."

Yes, I'll take care of it.

Sometimes the opponent was his real daughter, and the king was furious. The King usually tells Marton to hold back, but not this time.

I nodded with satisfaction when I saw Marton laughing happily.

"The headache agenda continues. The successors to Hamar and the Archbishop of Enzionism are asking to see His Majesty.... so why don't we take a break here?

"Phew... as far as I'm concerned, I'd really like to ask you. I'm not used to it yet. My eyes and shoulders must not be tight."

Shiloh exhales a clear sigh to jump on Martin's suggestion.

Both King and George take care of Marton and Shiloh because they understand that this is a busy king.

Let's do it.

"Now let's make some tea. Ladies and gentlemen, would you like some tea?

George quickly stood up and ordered the soldier in front of the door.

"... by the way, Celestia isn't here again. Are you on holiday because it was yesterday's day on a boulder?

While dropping it off with his unique sticky smile, Marton asks the King who rests on his back.

"... no, I think I went to school somehow."

"Why is that again...?"

"... the rest is refreshing about my real daughter."

Neither the King who responded nor Martin, who pondered nature and reason, used his head in full rotation despite the lack of answers during the break.

♢♢♢

When the Kings and Martens were roaring at the meeting...

At Wright School, there have been several cheers here.

A wave of people approaching the salon noisily like a storm.

Then the person responsible arrives at the reception and turns to the crowd that follows.

"Would you please be quiet for a moment?

He puts his index finger on his charming lips and pleads normally in person.

But the effect is enormous.

All the men and women blushed their faces and grabbed their mouths, easily gaining a strong silence.

"... then.... is Mr. Glass here?

Turn around and ask a skilled employee who is equally overwhelmed by reception.

……

Um?

"Ha! Yes, I am! You're a glass! I'll call you right away!

I bowed deeply and entered the back room with a feeling of irritation.

Listen while watching it with your usual smile.

"--Glass-kun! The break is over! Nominated! Respond quickly!

"... I just took a break. You can see that, right? I'm eating late breakfast."

I understand that, but the princess has nominated you!

Before the quiet reception, the servant's lounge often sounds familiar.

I know. I'd hate to be so noisy. However, as I have been saying before, I am against the nomination system.... I categorically refuse!!

I'll jump my neck!?

Unbelievable wording was popping up.

Anyway! Get out of here! Everyone wants to replace the tears of blood! What a sudden rush. "

"Ah, hey, stop, this, hey... you're still eating chazuke!!

That's why I said stop it!!

……

A little quiet occurs.

Then the servant walks out of the door of the vanished room.

"--Thank you for waiting. I'm sorry, sir. I took over a little bit."

"No, I'm sorry when I was resting."

Celestia smiles at the glass that the wound just now responds visciously as if it were a lie.

"Your Highness is not to be apologized for anything. I'll show you everything... anyway. This way."

"Yes, please."

♢♢♢

If I hire an employee at Demon King Castle, I'll listen to my men. Absolutely.

Please take my tea pickles away. I'm not kidding...

After being assaulted by Princess Erica in the morning, it was finally a break.

"I heard that Mr. Glass came to the royal castle yesterday... did you find anything inconvenient?

"When it came to that noise, I was shaking in the corner with pitiful horror."

"I see... It was a perfect system, but I'm sorry."

I feel sorry for you from the bottom of my heart.

Stop apologizing to the killer. Your chest is twitching.

"... I can't help it. Here you go."

Open the door to the new salon and lead it inside.

"Yes"

Princess Celestia walks through without warning.

From what happened yesterday, there seems to be no doubt about the glass.

secretly exhales a sigh of relief and enters himself.

Well then...

When I close the door and turn around and open my mouth... there's a light shock.

The scent that I smelled when I passed by earlier reached my nasal cavity more strongly.

And it feels soft and strong.

When I look down scared...

"... I got you. --His Majesty the Black Demon King."
