Harolia leads me through long, wide, well-furnished corridors.

　The royal castle of the demon world is a complete change from the noise of the castle below, and it is quiet and a little lonely.

　There are few signs of people, perhaps there are not many palace servants.

　The only sign of human presence I can sense is that there are a couple of skilled-looking secret agents, perhaps colleagues of Hood's, following behind us while hiding from view.

　Even though they are hiding, I can see them with my magic eye!

　It's quite a surreal and interesting figure, with the intention of hiding, but the figure is in full view.

　--By the way, Leila and En are not here at the moment.

　You're going to be able to get an audience with the king of the demon world, well, they don't need to be there, and I'm sure they're tired of being rocked by the carriage for so long.
　I sent them ahead to a room in the castle that was supposed to be addressed to us.

　I saw that En and the capybara had stopped talking during the ride, and she was sleeping on my lap.
　She was super cute asleep.

　I have a magic dagger and a magic dagger tucked behind my back, so if anything goes wrong, this should suffice.
　You can open the item box when the need arises.

　It was really a good idea to bring En on this trip.
　If it weren't for her, I might have succumbed to temptation and Reffi would have beaten me to death when I returned to the dungeon.

　...... No, well, I have no intention of being dominated by anyone other than Lephi.

　I'm not sure how much better she looks, but there aren't many better women than that one.
　At least the Leffy I met in this life is much more attractive than the women I met in my previous life.

Over here.

　Eventually, Hood-chan took me in front of the big door.

　In front of the big door, two gargoyle-shaped golems that are guarding the guard, or maybe they are gargoyles with magic swirling inside, are guarding the door, and they move, giggling, toward you, but because Hood-chan is there, they immediately cease their vigilance and turn around to face the front again and do not move.

　You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for, and you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

　Beyond the door was a wide and deep throne room, entirely in black and red hues.

　On the left and right are lively demon statues that seem to intimidate you, and in the center of the room a red carpet is spread from the entrance to the back.

　...... Is that demon statue an anti- intruder measure?
　The same as the gargoyle in front of the big door, you can see through the magic eye that there is magic inside the statue.

　The reason why there were few people in the castle may be because a group of golems like that are guarding the key points.

You are the demon king Yuki, right? I'm Finale, king of this demon world. How do you do?

　And sitting on the throne at the far end of the room was a young man (...) with a smile on his face.

　It's much weaker than I expected when I heard the king of the demon world.

　It seems to be blocked by some pretty good magic tools, and even my analysis skills are subtly obscured by the letters, but its status numbers are only slightly stronger than humans, and it's below average among the demons I've seen in the city.

　Probably, against this guy, it's possible to win even with En.
　En, you can fight the demons in the forest of the demon world.

　But the skills and titles this king possesses have a tremendous amount of knowledge that's unidirectional and sharp.

　I see...so this is a complete master-type king.

　I'm sure he's a very good commander of the top, and it's easy to see from his skill set that he's very clever. ...... It's true that the demons who value power above all else are not going to be well received by the demon tribe. Nah.

　And ...... "nasty", you know.

　I guess we shouldn't trust him too much. He's a good-looking guy. Yeah.

"I am here, Your Majesty.

Thank you for your service, and thank you for your help, Haloria.

"Ha! Thank you.

　After glancing at Hoodie, who kneels down and bows her head, I look at the man sitting on the throne in front of me.

"You're the one who called me here, .......

Yes, I am. I'm very glad you came all the way out here. Thank you.

　You are smiling at me, but honestly, it's just weird to have a guy smile at you like that, so don't do it.

Well, you're probably tired from your long trip, so let's get to it. I asked you to come because of your strength. You seem to be pretty strong. I mean, you've even fought off the dragons, right?

　...... Heh. You know.

What do you know about it?

I don't know much about it. It's just that the children of the demon tribe planned to win over the dragons, but it didn't seem to go so well. It seems that the dragon tribe that killed its head and became the Dragon King has gone on its own.

　I'm not sure if he was referring to the dragon tribe or the demon tribe.

　I'm sure he wasn't referring to the dragon tribe's men, but perhaps the demon tribe's. I'm sure he was referring to the demon tribe's men.

I've been keeping an eye on him, but the dragon king hasn't been able to figure out what he's been doing since he went to the forest where you live. It's unlikely that he missed such a huge body, so he was probably knocked down there.



"That's me? Normally, you'd think it was the High Dragon living in the forest that killed it, not me.

Yeah, well, there's a chance of that happening.

　After nodding, the king of the demon world continued.

I have a boy under me who has the skills of analysis. Because of his developing skills, he should be able to see the opponent's strength, but he looked at me with a blue face and said, 'I can't see you. I thought you defeated him. I don't know if you had that much strength from the start, or if you gained it after you defeated the strongest race of dragons,

　...... I see, they saw my status - or maybe they didn't.

　It's pretty level-dependent.
　The people I saw in this castle, if you want to see my status, you'll need to be at least an '8' skill level to do so.

Even if that's not the case, if you're that strong, then what better way to have them on your side?

I understand that. But with a brain like yours, you could crush the enemy with or without my help, right?

Oh, you still have analytical skills, don't you? I'll tell you what, I'm not a black-hearted person. I know that you can't win a face-to-face battle, so I was doing all kinds of underhanded maneuvering, and before I knew it, I had that title.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find it in the marketplace," he said, shaking his head from side to side as if to say, "It's just awful, you know, it's a human being, it's such a s*xual thing.

　...... No, I think that's black-hearted enough.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for, but it's also a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. But you see, in the event of an all-out war, the first thing I can't do is win.

　Finale continued with a troubled laugh.

I'm sure that if it escalates into an all-out war, even if you are able to slaughter a lot of enemies by playing a trick on them, they will be forcibly overthrown by force, and it will definitely become a quagmire. They are numerous in number and each one of them is actually very strong. You can find out more about them at ....... When that happens, the people who benefit the most are us humans, the enemies of our species, the "demon tribe". How far can we, weary as we are, cope with this?

"...... I see.

　Even if they could win the war, it would be inevitable that the country would be in significant decline.

　In that case, it was obvious that hostile humans would come to attack, and the exhausted demon race would find it difficult to counterattack them, and eventually the entire demon world would be in danger of being destroyed.

　In the big picture, the king will lose if the war escalates into an all-out war.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you're willing to pay for it. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for, but it's not always the case.

"Ah, ......

　You're a brainiac.

　...... Well, the only demons I've met are Leila, Hood, the beautiful lady, and this king, so I've never met a brainiac like that before.
　It's not that I'm not a brainiac, but I'm not a brainiac.

　Hmmm ...... at this point in time. I'd rather see a brainy demon race as soon as possible.

So, well, I've taken steps to prevent that from happening.

"And then? What do you want me to do?

"Oh, you're on board?

I just need to hear the story first.

"Haha, well, yeah.

　The king of the demon world smiled at him and then opened his mouth.



"Well, you see, I'd like you to be the symbol...
