Story of The Ancient Demon King!

……

……

Identify the muscular Mukimki man with a sharp look in front of him.

Close your face and carefully gauge your condition to see if your sword or sword is distorted.

"............ yeah, let's do this."

"Oh no!

I bought several cucumbers at the usual Hachibana store.

"Oh, yeah."

Hachiban-san's wife came to talk to me about leaving.

"Glass, I want to buy rice again. Is it in stock?"

"You can bring it right away. I'll bring it tomorrow."

"Ahh ~. I'm sorry to have you bring it all the time."

It's heavy.

"Thanks, I'll go get it when my husband's free."

He laughs bitterly at his uncomfortable husband behind him and walks toward the exit of the market, saying goodbye to the two of them.

"Oooh! Why don't you drop by today?

"Not today. I'll see you around next week."

"Oh yeah! I'm waiting for you!

You can talk to fruit and mushroom shops one after the other.

It belongs to a regular who has become familiar with every aspect.

Fu, this is a swallowing thing without knowing I'm the Devil King. Stupid humans, cumming...

"Glass! I want to buy rice again!

"Okay! My back hurt! I'll bring it to the store tomorrow!

♢♢♢

After finishing today's school work, shopping, and entering the rental house (Asia) through the back door.

"Welcome home, Mr. Krono."

It's Celeste today.

Celeste in a black dress greeted me with a deep bow after a merciful smile. As always, it's absolutely beautiful and adorable.

Looks like Celeste himself came here today with Mob in charge of the Shadow Warrior.

After joining us in earnest, Celeste seemed to be pretty busy with side jobs and had to work with Marie all day.

So Mob, who is usually the butler, will take care of everything. The two men were somehow having fun.

"... I think that's strange."

"Did you find something strange in one of the exchanges we just had!?

What is this kid!? Then you won't be able to talk anymore!?

I came back to Celeste, who looked like he was teasing me.

"I welcome Mr. Kurono. This is the original shape. I have been entrusting Mob to take care of me lately, but I hope you will keep that in mind."

"... hmm. I'm sorry."

Instead, I'm used to living alone, so if you're busy, Mob and I can focus on the side business.

No, I don't think the caregiver himself needs it...

♢♢♢

A calm and elegant room lined with fine furniture and isolated from the outside world.

Several candles lit the room romantically, creating fantastic air, which began.

"... now let's begin the first regular meeting of the Black Order [Kronos]."

A diligent Celeste, dressed deliberately in a uniform like a black uniform with tied back hair, began talking in working mode.

This is the first step of our company [Kronos], named Tequito just now.

"Is it okay to say that this regular meeting will only be held by key people?"

I was a little relieved because I was embarrassed and happy in the first place, and it seemed like I was nervous and uncomfortable.

Creating an environment that is easy to work is one of my top tasks.

"Yeah, I left it to you, that's fine. Well, there was an unexpected incident, but I couldn't help it. Let's go positive."

Oh, my God, it's hard to have men!

Short-sleeved pants give instructions to large people.

"Yes, sir. So... why are you whispering?

Celestia leaned her head and questioned me as she spoke in a small volume.

I sit at the table magnificently, and I speak even more quietly at the age of 10 to make it easier to move in a small rental house. Of course I doubt it.

"It could be a nuisance to the neighbors. It's midnight and it's a natural consideration. Besides... the scariest thing is that they'll find out we're here."

"That's right. It's a place called the basement, so if you're surrounded, there's no escape."

"No, I have many ways to escape, and if it's the worst I can do, I can kick it all out... but it's very bad for the landlord to find out."

He pressed his elbows to his desk, supported his chin, and gently told the commander with his own sandals.

I built my own splendid office in the basement of a rented house, so I was a little scared to discover it to that scary landlord.

I came to check the last time.

There is only a gentle side that gives the hem, but it can't be scorned.

"Well, it's underground, so there's no need to worry about that."

"Yes, sir. I will be careful of his presence."

"Yeah, well, let's move on."

I instructed Celestia to feel great dignity and burn with a sense of purpose.

"I understand. First of all, let's talk about the powerful people inside and outside the Kingdom of Light, whom Kurono-sama cared about."

"Yeah."

Blaine has officially joined us due to completely unexpected and surprising behavior, so it's time to embark on a full-fledged journey to create the organization.

I also want to understand the existence of enough villains.

"Kurono-sama is too strong, so let me explain it based on my criteria.... first of all, those who did not compete with me or defeat me before baptism."

"... is that a feather growing?

"No, it's not growing."

Who's stronger than Celeste, even though he doesn't say "gospel"?

"The [Knights Without Flags] division chiefs were spared, and one of them was my brother's“ Alto Wright. "I never went to an official tournament, but it was probably stronger than me.... the other one... fought with Marie and me, but still couldn't be defeated. But don't worry, this has already been resolved."

That brother. Then I'm convinced.

I had raised my arm a lot when I saw it before, and it would be much stronger than Lionel.

It must have been beastly sensitive and naturally powerful enough to handle the Great Sword generously.

But Celeste and the Macho Knight couldn't win, so I was a little worried.

But Celeste keeps explaining it to me.

"We have omitted forces such as the unknown [Night Walker], and what we don't know as a group are... islands and enzymes. They only have information in their legacy, and the whole picture is unknown. There are many unbelievable legacies, which may not be very reliable."

Speaking of which, there are demon kings on the island. I forgot because it seems to have been dragging on forever.

"Only the [Knight of the Black Skull] has been confirmed every few decades, and its strength is expected to be… equal to or greater than my present strength"

"... so strong. I can't believe it's the same with that artifact."

Relics.

Too much legacy left over from myths and legends in modern times.

It is a broken weapon with various abilities along with stories and legacies.

Some pay the price like an equivalent exchange, but many of them give it powerful power.

And the decorative sword that I usually used for floor polishing and weapon making was something that Celeste used to manipulate by turning magic into "light."

Well... until the other day, I only thought of it as a replacement for a sculpture sword.

I didn't know it was such an amazing [artifact].

It reminds me of Celeste's black decorative sword and makes me feel stingy.

"I mean, if you have that sword, why don't you give it back to me?

Point to the other sword you gave me that day, on Celeste's waist.

"... this is from Kurono-sama."

"Huh? Hmm, yeah. That's the one I gave you. Can I have it back?

"I can't return what you gave me so easily. Because it involves the majesty of Krono."

"... no, but you don't use the sole because it's strong, right? Give it back."

Even with a cool face, I slightly lifted my hand to Celestia, who hid the sword behind me.

"Of course, if Kurono-sama, the Lord, asks me to return it, I have to obey it."

"I'm going to tell you to give it back!?

I accidentally got stuck.

No, if you like it so much, I won't ask you to give it back...

……

"... okay. If you take so much care of me, I'll give it to you. Keep going."

"Phew... Let me continue."

Celeste continued to exhale, relieved that she had just left.

"I received that decorative sword, but obviously there are several stronger beings than me. Everyone admits, is frightened, and avoids passing through."

……

Near the Wright Kingdom, I can predict a few.

"One of the most iconic is the [flame lion] Drake Le Stand of Quadjaro, which comes to mind in terms of strength.... this one has the strength to jump through. It is extremely dangerous, and it is because of him that Cougaro is too strong to be sandwiched between islands and the Light Kingdom."

I knew it. Hmm, if it wasn't too strong, Hakto and the others would be dead.

If Celeste says so much, it must be a stray strength. I don't think I'll take the drake.

"And the other one... no, another one. The“ Kars Wetlands "on the border with the Republic of Ralman - [Swamp Demons]."

[Swamp Demon]... I have heard that name several times.

But right now, my organization wants either a disposable villain or an unpaid employee.

Ahhh, I wish I had a nice idea.

"It is called the [Demon of the Swamp], but it is a monster as powerful as a demon. It seems to be able to follow many undead and monsters and even deal with the powerful magic of a long time ago. There are many powerful monsters, but this will be the only other powerful individual."

Celeste, I'm glad you're here.

"It's a great honor to be here."

Celeste, who was serious, bowed with pleasure dyeing her cheeks, but ahhhh ~

Undead... There are many things you don't need to eat and basically don't feel tired.

The idea of hiring monsters didn't come up because it was all about race.

If the time is free and the timing is right, why don't you check it out a little?

Still... flexible thinking is the challenge ahead, and Celeste is still a reliable person.

What are the remaining problems with regular sources of income?

……

I'm already in trouble with Princess Erica's butler... dismissed.

Looking at the sword and spear hung on the wall with the idea that it would not be poison or medicine... well, I think of Asla as a temporary recruit.

"I wonder if Asla's back..."

Then maybe we should clean it up and go back to the Chrono Mansion to check it out.

"... who will be Asura?"

Celeste whispered to me, showing a slight reaction, and asked me with a terrible, inorganic voice.

Hmm ~ Asla is a temporary member I've known since she attacked me before.

"It only sounds like a street monster....."

"Isn't it nice because you were a complete passing monster? He said he wanted me to be his friend after practice. I wonder if I'm going to be Celeste's senior."

"... that's a word, but if I'm not officially in charge, I'm probably in charge."

Maybe it was.

... I'm so dissatisfied.

Everything sounds right when you say it with a crisp sense of knightness.

"Could that Asla be enough for Kurono-sama?"

"Strength is very strong. Except for the man who's too strong for the ruins."

Astra is much stronger than Cashew and Lionel, but the black wing man who showed the strength that was confused with God despite being chained in a weak state, had many different dimensions. Me, I haven't hit enough at all.

But since we're aiming for an at-home organization that values motivation more than combat power, it doesn't really matter how strong Ashra is.

"... yeah, that's right. I'll be back in the castle soon. I'm worried about my pets."

"Yes, sir. I'll be ready as soon as I can."

It's not my preparation... right? 'Cause all you have to do is put your sword on your hips, carry the minimum luggage, and run straight through it.

"You can't just say it like that. You're busy with a side job, aren't you? Doesn't Celeste have to be here because it bothers other people?

I mean, I want Mob to play the glass instead of me, so Celeste's shadow warrior can't take it for granted.

……

This is another disgruntled princess. You're Princess Erica's sister, after all.

Let's discuss it in my special "Demon King Seminar". I was kind of confident in my lecture to Hakt.

And after listening to the various agenda items, the meeting ended....

♢♢♢

……

"... fufufu"

Chrono stares at the chess board with his bloody eyes.

Celestia stares at her with her chest twitching.

……

After Kurono thought about it, he reached out to the Gold Token.

"Ah...."

……

Reacting to Celestia's faint voice, she pulled her hand back.

……

After some thought, Kurono reached out to the next Silver Token.

……

……

Now silent Celestia.

A gentle smile that sounds pleasant to me.

"- It's not fair!!

But Chrono cried.

From the evening of the battle with Cashew to the morning, I enjoyed a number of games after a dinner party called a championship party.

Chess, Othello, Chess.

In the three games that Chrono had prepared, Celestia, who was supposed to play for the first time, was defeated. No, all defeated.

Today, as early as Revenge, I saw Chrono in trouble and began to lead Celestia to what I thought was best.

"Mercy is not necessary for demon kings! Don't tell me!!

However, the token just now will be packed in five hands.

"Is my king in such a dead place!?

Celeste, who was just a bit of a mess, discovered the fact that he was far less disadvantaged than he thought, and looked up at the chess board.

"... by the way, how long do I have to wait?”

"Please return as much as you like."

"... by the way, how long will we be equal when we get back?

Is it about twenty?

The Demon King despairs of Celestia, a dazzling smile that answers without hesitation.

"... it's almost the first time..."
