　Sam did not know what to say.

　In front of him, a dark-haired gothic lolita girl was standing confidently with her chest out. Her cheeks were red and her eyes were moist.

　Behind the girl, a man with a huge brown frame tilts his head as if he is troubled.

（What is this? Why is he suddenly going to be my husband?　I mean, I've been in a situation like this before!)

　The dazzling smile of the pride of the Kingdom of Skye was on my mind.

　If Sam remembered correctly, he had been in a battle with this pervert.

(I don't think so, but it won't be a fight like the one with Günther, will it? (I don't think so, but we're not going to fight like we did with Günther, are we?)

　It's not a matter of winning or losing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The fact that the Demon King might turn against Sam depending on his reaction is bad in itself.

（Oh, I'm desperate!　(Worst case scenario, I have to fight the Demon King even if I have to break my promise to Ur!)

　Sam opened his mouth slowly, fearfully, so as not to provoke the other party.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I'd be glad if you could tell me how it happened."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You've never met me before, and you want to have dinner with me, the Demon King, and you fell in love with me at first sight, didn't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... eh."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even when he explained it to me, I couldn't understand it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Yeah, I don't really understand, but at least I know that I shouldn't invite the Demon King to dinner.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Sam looked deeply troubled, the big man, the Demon King, intervened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry... I'm going to humiliate my people, but I'd appreciate it if you could think of it as a seizure. He often makes the mistake of thinking that someone is in love with him when they are a little nice to him."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I do that a lot!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not mistaken. You want to have dinner with me?　A weak man had the courage to ask me out. Then it's only a lady's duty to answer him."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... you should really look up the word 'lady'."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam agreed with the big man, but he just nodded his head without saying a word.

　Then the black gothic loli demon king grew grumpier and grumpier.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She looked at Sam for confirmation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You want to have dinner with me, don't you?　But first, if you pledge your allegiance to be mine with all your heart--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay then..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　Hey, wait!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Somehow, after all the trouble, Sam gave the answer that it was best not to get involved and tried to leave the place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（The Demon King?　I don't give a shit about that stuff!　I came to town to buy baked goods for Liese-sama!　Oh, what a pain in the ass!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The big man panicked at this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, come on, give me a break!　He was going to buy me dinner, but you've put him in a bad mood!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Shut up!　I mean, you just called me a family member, but don't you dare lick my face. Even if we're the same Demon King, you're a lower rank than me!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's true, but don't be so sure. You're hurting me. And I'm hungry. Let's eat anyway. In a friendly way, okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He puts his hand on Sam's shoulder and smiles amiably, as if to appease him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The girl with the grumpy look on her face didn't seem to like Sam's sleeve, but she was hungry as well and didn't seem to be out of control.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's just eat and calm down. Oh, by the way, who are you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"This is Sam. Samuel Scheidt."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--Hmm?　That name sounds familiar. Well, not now. I'm Douglas. I don't mean to call myself that, but I'm the Demon Lord. I'm an ogre."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　An ogre?　But."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Sam was told that the big man who treated him like a friend was an ogre, he couldn't help but ask back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The demon king, who called himself Douglas, had brown skin, which was rare in the Kingdom of Skye, but he was human in appearance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, he's disguised as a human now. But I'm special. I'm a pure-blooded ogre, but I've evolved several times. Because of this, it is not unusual for me to be thought of as close to human."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Pureblood?　Evolution?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't even know what that's about. Well, if you're human and you live on the other side of the world from us, it's not too much to ask. I'd be happy to tell you about that when I get a chance, but it's probably none of your business.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The ogre Sam knows is a blue- or red-skinned, horned subhuman who wields a powerful force.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They are powerful enough to be called monsters, intelligent enough not to run amok with their emotions and desires.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A close relative is the ogre in the land of the rising sun in the east, but this is a more savage and evil being.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Maybe the line between us subhumans and monsters is blurred. You look a little confused.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, no, I don't mean to treat you like a monster.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't mind. It happens all the time, and we know we're ogres, but we don't know if we're more monster or more human.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Douglas laughed without a hint of concern.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To him, he was a demon king and an ogre. I guess that's enough for him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（I see, it is a bad habit of humans to try to distinguish between monsters, humans, subhumans, and so on.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For better or worse, we humans are sometimes obsessed with the categories of "us" and "them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sometimes, even the difference in country of origin or place of birth can be a target of discrimination.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I am sure that only humans do such things.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"By the way, I have orcs and other races under my command in addition to ogres. I'd like to introduce them to you when I get a chance. Hey, it's about time you got in a better mood and at least introduced yourself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Douglas approached the sulking girl in the background.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Gothic Lolita demon king stared at Sam and puffed out his chest again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I am Evangeline Alahey. You shall have my name on your heart, my wife-to-be!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're a hard man to beat. You got dumped.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I didn't get dumped!　I was just embarrassed, you know!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... huh. Sorry, Sam. Well, let him say what he wants. And for the record, Evangeline is the Dragon King's daughter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"-- what?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, don't go around spouting off about me like that!　Besides, I've already cut ties!　I am now the Demon King and Evangeline Allahi, the Demon Dragon!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had no idea that the girl who called herself Evangeline was the daughter of the Dragon King.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(A daughter of the Dragon King playing the role of the Demon King, haha, that's not funny.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although I am related to the Dragon King, I had no idea that he had a daughter, so I was simply astonished.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I know you have a lot of surprises and questions you want to ask me, but let's talk about them over dinner. I don't want to hear that you won't buy me a drink now."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, yes, that's all right, but please don't go wild in this town, in this country."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm not going to do anything violent. We're not stupid enough to go on a rampage in someone else's country.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... what should we do? If Sam won't be mine, I'll take my chances.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I promise I won't make you do it, please."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although Evangeline is still a little uneasy, there is no need to be rude to Douglas, who is friendly and welcoming.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"All right. Let's eat in peace."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam nodded, and Douglas smiled happily.
