Story of The Ancient Demon King!

Episode 14: The Demon King Suspected of Loving a Domestic Worker

The conference hall doors open.

In the heavy air, one great sense of intimidation enters.

Even Shiloh and the knights shrink like rabbits in front of lions.

Well done on your sudden summons, Black Knight. Thank you, including for the other shot. "

King Light, sitting in the deepest seat from the entrance to the room, tells the black knight who came in sitting down.

Speaking of the Black Knight, King Wright decided to treat him as one of the knights in his position, but the knights in the conference hall were terrified of war.

I was eager to see the flickers and complexion, not touching the wrath of the mighty Black Knight.

"... no way"

But the words that came out of the Black Knight were soft and polite.

"It's a great honor to have someone like me attend an important meeting. However, I would like you to take a good look at some disrespect because of the irregularities you don't even know how to behave."

"... um, of course."

"It seems urgent, so I will skip introducing myself. It looks like I'm the last one, so let's get started."

Say so, gently lower your head to King Light, then head to your empty seat.

……

Everyone can repaint the Black Knight statue they had in mind.

Destroy Shirley's mansion, appear refreshed, and save the king, and live in its dark armor.

Each depicted an exclusive Black Knight statue that did not respect the King.

"... Black Knight, are you sure?"

Yeah?

A black knight maid who was dissatisfied with King Wright's attitude asked the black knight.

"There is no one who needs the Black Knight to get out badly. At the very least, you should treat them with the same attitude.... King Wright."

……

Lilia hastily added “King Wright” when she realized that it was becoming a word of dissatisfaction with the Lord.

But the word is true.

There is no need for the LORD to humble himself to the king of a kingdom, even though he is a temporary figure, like an evil god or a destructive god.

……

A maid who believes and doubts that and starts to speak without permission, but does not speak out of disrespect or disrespect.

I want to know why Alto, Marton, and even King Wright have such a powerful black knight attitude.

"... because I'm not dressed right now."

"Are you cool?

The black knight continued on Lilia's lovely, chaotic face.

"Making you look great because you have strong braces looks like you're drowning in strength, right?

……

"Besides, there is a reason for the king to take the attitude that is appropriate to his position. My loss of courtesy here involves the rule of the country and the majesty of the king, and I will not turn in the right direction."

The King and Marton sigh of admiration at the words of the Black Knight, and the knights pay a warm tribute to their hearts.

He was a noble knight, a true guardian of justice.

……

If the king is licked, problems will arise. Fear from soldiers and aristocrats diminished, and rebellion was conceivable.

Lilia understands, but still, the face of my father who had been doing all he wanted to put power on the cover was flickering, and he was furious at King Wright, who had left it virtually unattended.

But....

"... that was an outrageous thing to say. I'm sorry."

Such thoughtful black knights cannot cause trouble, and above all, they follow their will.

"No, don't worry. It's just my way of thinking."

"Yes"

The black knight turned back briefly to Lilia with his head down, pulled out the great sword and stood by the wall, lowering his hips to his seat.

"... I'm sorry to have to take up the Black Knight's time. Let's start by asking the Black Knight."

"I understand."

As soon as King Wright turned to the facilitator, Martin, saying this was the least of his courtesies, the meeting immediately began.

"Now, Lilia, who became the next-generation Kensei of Celestia."

"Eh... yes"

Lilia was surprised and turned to Marton, who spoke to herself instead of the Black Knight.

"This is a request to Kensei. I need you, and the Lord's Black Knight, to do it as soon as possible. And of course, I'll pay you."

"Master, what do you want?

Everyone's gaze shifts from Lilia, who asks the Lord without hesitation, to the Black Knight.

Though it has become easier to talk due to black knight considerations, it is still a nervous conference room.

After a little silence, a pleasant low voice was heard.

"Of course, but can you tell me what's urgent?

"Of course."

As a matter of course, courtesy is polite and polite, Marton conceals his naturally bloating respect for him and speaks briefly and with a point in mind.

Because of the urgency of the situation and the ease of asking for the death, Alto did as he thought.

"Those who were investigating the destroyed forces in Ralman... were devastated. I want to know if these two causes are [swamp demons], so why don't you go there and investigate if he's moving?"

"Exactly."

Continuing, Marton pushes up his glasses and explains why it was an urgent meeting.

"In addition to the news of the destruction of the investigation team that has just arrived... I understand everything about the Black Knight, but in three days... Supreme Bishop Benedict will return to King's Landing."

Hmm.

"I don't know what's going to happen, so I don't want to break the current sign. So I want you two to scout."

"... hmm"

King Wright and Marton took off their hats in the eyes of the black knight, saying that they were still existing and fearful.

"The reward will be after the return as usual, but the amount is expected -"

♢♢♢

At the end of the discussion at the royal castle, Chrono returns to Asia and gives Lilia and the others instructions from tomorrow.

He sat in his chair in the basement and went over to Lilia.

"It was a little difficult, but it looks like we're going to do something a little different tomorrow. I want you and Kageha to stay in a luxury hotel and take a rest today."

"Hmm!?

Kurono is totally in a mood for getting regular funding for [Kensei] 's salary.

Lilia was delighted and relieved, but she was surprised at what she couldn't abandon.

"I'm sorry, but I'll get [Kensei] 's salary as a swordsmanship tuition. But apart from this, don't worry, I pay my servants well. Tell them to negotiate the amount when you meet our number two."

"Money... Lilia is as happy as she can serve. But... what about... taking care of your mistress in King's Landing...?

For the first time, Lilia, who had entered Ajito, the king's capital, and had her nose roughly motivated to take care of Chrono, asked the Lord of mysterious stories about her eyes.

"Our organization has a branch of King Kronos and a butler will come from there. So don't worry.... Kageha"

Kurono answered bravely to brag about the organization, and continued to call Kageha.

─ Ha

"Hmm!?

A lizard appeared next to Lilia from nowhere without a sign, kneeling.

Even Lilia, who has been there for several times, was surprised and upset by the lizard that suddenly appeared there.

"Come on.... don't worry about what you're talking about in the swamp, take your time at home with this money and go sightseeing and shopping. Are you close?"

Ten-year-old Chrono stepped out into a lizard that was invisible in the shadow of his desk and presented a leather bag with gold.

Chrono's thoughtful consideration.

In order to deepen the rapprochement between the two colleagues, I hand over the exciting funds and order them to return while playing.

"Sincerely,"

The Demon King nodded with satisfaction to the lizard who had received and accepted.

"Hey ~, I'm a demon king blessed by my men. All the good boys are going to die for the Devil's Pluto."

"Representative Director" is written in kanji and said as Nico while repositioning the bill.

Lilia and the others (...) smiled at each other with innocence that changed with the side of the transcender during the battle.

"Fufu............. hah!... no, is it about majesty that the king only wears one servant?"

"Seriously?

Chrono was anxious to hear Lillia's words when she returned to me that there was a glorious crisis....

"Hmm... no, I can't help it this time. Because from tomorrow, I'll use it....."

When Kurono's words stopped and thought,

"... actually, I'm working undercover on a facility right now."

All of a sudden, he shook his elbow at the desk and began to speak with dignity with overwhelming magic.

"Hih!?

"Nh!!

Both Lilia and Kageha are under intense magical pressure and naturally correct their backs.

The conversation changed, so they quickly realized the seriousness of the topic.

"There will be more infiltration tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. In the middle of a harsh scene... there are people who suddenly come in with swords, and troublesome people who break up and wave their swords. Some grandfathers are robbing us of food."

Lilia and Kageha took a breath.

I can't imagine what kind of facility this is, but this Krono is harsh.

"Eh...."

……

What kind of strong enemies there are, how dangerous they are, and the existence of an unknown world sweats cold.

"That's why you're so early. In the meantime, I want you to heal your fatigue and get ready for your next assignment."

Ha.

"... yes"

Two people bow their heads.

Kageha was ashamed of her immaturity, which did not serve the Lord, and Lilia lamented her lack of thought, which did not draw on her husband's intentions.

"By way of example, if you or one of your associates is in custody, and then… captured and captured, the authorities will be aware of it, so do something to let them know immediately."

Ha.

"Sure...."

The deep kindness of the usual Lord makes them regret violently.

♢♢♢

"Yoyo, yo, yo, yo. Do you want the demon king's pickles ~, yoyo, yoyo, where are you... hmm?

When Lilia and Kageha left, she stopped her hand mixing bran floors with her nose song.

I feel a sign of a visitor upstairs... Let's get this over with.

Gently clean the bran floor and wash your hands.

"- Excuse me. Welcome home, Mr. Krono."

"... I'm home."

Celeste and Mob arrived in Asia in a robe that covered the traveler's body.

But the hooded Celeste doesn't always smile happily... he talks with a cold, cold expression in work mode.

So I'd like to ask Mob, who bows and starts preparing tea, why Celeste has such a bad place for insects...

"I saw my brother's thoughts again, and I couldn't stop being surprised and respectful of Krono-sama's arm, which even uses them."

"Uh-huh...."

I don't know why, but for now, I'm sitting at a desk dedicated to the Devil King.

"... do you have any other reports?

"Is it from me?"

Yes, I stepped on a mine...

Stay out of sight of the sharp Celeste and intercept him with undiminished dignity.

"... at this stage, there is nothing to report to Kurono-san, who should know everything. However, I'm afraid I have a lot to ask you, Mr. Kurono."

"I'll give you permission. Say it."

For some reason, I remembered the scene when my father was in love with the daughter of a peddler who came to the village and was found by the mother of the demonic figure.

"Thank you very much. So... I received a tip that you took the housekeeper without my knowledge, but is it sincere?

... I see, you don't like it. I hired Lilia and the others on my own.

"I have been tasked by Kronos himself to manage the funds of [Kronos].... speaking of an organization for Krono-sama, I want you to observe discipline yourself. Exceptions can adversely affect the organization itself."

Like the student chairman, he comes over to the desk and cheats on the sermon.

"... Celeste-kun"

Yes, what is it?

Position yourself correctly from the usual jaw support pointing your elbow at the desk… stare Celeste straight in the face and say it out loud.

"--You might want to take a closer look."

……

Mob brought me tea, and I feel breathtaking.

It's as if you were expecting Celeste's unprecedented anger.

……

……

But I stand unabated by the magnificent Celeste. Because it's the Devil.

Then....

"... I'm cheating. If you don't ask me so much, I have to admit it...."

I dyed my cheeks red and distracted my eyes and murmured.

Phew, you managed to get back to the usual Celeste.

"Eh!? Yes, were you asking so much just now...?

"Mob, you're being rude to Kurono-sama."

"I'm sorry to sit down....."

Surprised Mob is watching Celeste, but I'm reassured.

"But it's hard to believe that I'm always sweet to Krono-sama. Think of it as getting tough for a while."

……

She took off her robe with a crisp expression, and came in with a strong tone.

No, you're welcome to say it strictly for the organization, but the problem is...

"Tell me whatever you want me to do. Don't be such a wacko that you can tell others. This includes doing chores yourself. Be careful."

"I'm getting confused. I think I'm hearing a different language."

I told you not to do housework for me alone, and I told you to rely on something other than yourself... like a king... ah, me, the Demon King.

"No, more than that...."

I looked at Celeste again.

Speaking in a clear manner... I started my chores in a bold maid's clothes. With a nasty face.

Made-to-measure clothing with a high degree of exposure that can also be seen on the chest.

"... you know, I think it looks good on you... but did you come here with that outfit? A girl shouldn't forget her shame. If it's a princess, it's too much."

"Does Kurono like housekeepers like this? Enjoy yourself. Please be more satisfied than other housekeepers."

"Will you stop it? Can you stop calling people evil lords? It's like you're sacrificing yourself, so don't touch the other housekeepers. Will you stop?

To selflessly say Celeste, he starts to squeeze.

"What a misunderstanding!

"If you don't desperately make excuses, you don't have to hide them. I'll take care of everything."

"Don't listen to me! This kid!"

I'm parrying my resistance with a smile like "I understand," and preparing dinner in my maid's clothes.

No, wait...

"Maybe... are you kidding me?

"His Majesty the Devil. It is only in His Majesty's presence that Mr Celeste seems to be having so much fun. I wonder if there's any loneliness in the absence of His Majesty."

Did you see it? Mob explained it gently to me from next door.

Well, I didn't think you'd miss me... but I'm kind of itchy and happy.

"... it looks like I'm being serious."

"Akan Yan...."

In the meantime, I decided to wait for Celeste's dinner while talking to Mob while he was running away.

"Having said that, have you reached the region of origin? I don't think Marie's explanation was enough."

"Yeah, I made a reservation so you could put it away. They're so kind, you can stay overnight and have dinner. Thank you for thanking me..."
