"...... I see. Mm-hmm. I kind of knew you would."

"So you're not surprised that the Demon King has recruited you?"

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

"Lady Vivienne predicted that Tomoya would recruit you. And it's not good to have only one Demon King in the office. It would be a good thing to have one Demon Lord vacant, because a fool like Bowood would appear."

　He does not understand why Tomoya has nominated him for the position of Demon King.

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

　I think he has his own reasons.

　As Zoe says, a new Demon King is needed to correct the balance that has been broken by the loss of Lepsi.

　But that doesn't mean he can't rise up like Bowood did.

"Speaking of which, how are Bowood and the others doing?"

"They've followed us, so Vivienne has been very gracious and let them go to the guest house to do as they please. They're probably having a good time, though. As for me, I'm not happy about it, but I'll just have to go along with it if Vivian-sama agrees, since they're a pathetic bunch that got crushed before they could do anything."

"I followed you. What do you know about Varzad and the others?

I didn't have much."

　Bowood was cooperative in passing on information about Varzad.

　However, he did not have anything of this kind.

　It is said that he was planning to rise up to become the Demon King when Varzad and his men appeared and beat him to a pulp.

　Bowood tried to follow Valzard who showed his ability, but to his surprise, they invited him to become the Demon King with them.

　Borwood and his friends were delighted by his generosity and decided to join them.

"In the end, they just used us for their own gain," said Bowood. Valzado said he used Bowood too, but it is possible that he was still up to something.

"They're a pain in the ass. If they want to be the Demon King so badly, why don't they challenge Tomoya and the others and fall prey to their lucky schemes?"

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

"No doubt. But I don't know where Tomoya usually is."

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

　In fact, Varzad and the others will be quite a formidable foe.

　They could cut off heads with impunity and their magical power was off the charts.　

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

　We don't even know what kind of demons they are.

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

　Or even if they were demons at all.

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

　The thought of them taking action at any moment is terrifying.

"I'll have to get stronger."

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

　Eventually they will appear as enemies in front of Sam.

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

　We need to be strong enough to deal with them.

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

"You're so positive--I envy you."

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

"...... What's wrong, all of a sudden?"

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

　Zoe's words came out of nowhere and startled Sam.

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

　He had never expected her to say that she envied him.

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

I couldn't do anything in front of Varzad and the others.

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

　I could see that Zoe was depressed because she knew what she was capable of and was proud to be a strong person.

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

"I didn't make it easy for them, but most of all I didn't make it easy for Master Lepsey," she said. I wish I had the strength to stand up to Varzad and the others like Sam did and free Lady Lepsey."

"--Zoe."

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

"...... sorry. I don't know why I'm so weak with you."

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

　She looked like she was about to start crying, but Sam was a little worried, even though she smiled and said it was nothing.

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

"If it were me, I'd listen to you anytime, okay?"

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

"Mm. I appreciate it. When you do, I'll be counting on you."

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

　However, not knowing how far to go, he could only say a few bland things.

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

　Zoe changed the subject as if she wanted to change her mind.

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

"By the way, Vivienne suggested that I go to the Kingdom of Skye."

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

"Really?"

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

"Mm. I would need permission from the king there, but I would like to stay for a while if possible."

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

"Well, why?"

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

"Since you and Vivienne have established a friendship in the Kingdom of Skye, what good is a friendship if we don't interact with each other? I will go there, and if possible, I would like the Sky Kingdom to send someone to the Night Kingdom to deepen our exchange.

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

"That's a good idea."

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

　If we are going to have a full-fledged exchange, we should go deeper as Zoe said.

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

　There are countries that have friendship in name only, but in order to avoid such a situation, I would like to get along well with Vivian and the Demon King.

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

Bowood and the others have said they will follow us.

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

"Really?"

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

　Sam's allegiance to the Bowoods is not good, since he and the Bowoods have not yet settled their differences, but he is glad that the Bowoods, as strong warriors as they are, recognize him.

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

　I don't want a subordinate, but I hope we can be friends.

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

"-Oh, by the way..."

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

"Yeah?"

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

"I received a messenger from Evangeline, the Demon King--"

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

　Zoe tilted her head.

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

"Help me," was the only message she sent, but what was it about? Well, let's just ignore it."

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

"...... is fine."

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

"I don't know where that Demon Lord is in the first place. It would have been a different story if he had at least told us where he was, but I don't know where he is playing around at all.

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

　Afterwards, Sam and Zoe had a light-hearted chat.

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

　--Sam would look back on this day and regret his decision not to accept Evangeline's help.
