192-Demon King




 The only person who visits this mansion where I live with transference magic is Cephiro. And if it was Cephiro, he would not be able to hoard anything and would appear before he could sense the distortion of space.

 But the space remains squishy and twisted, unchanged.

 It's an unlikely possibility, but there's also the possibility that a sorcerer belonging to the Lords Alliance has been targeting me and launching a single-armed assault. Preparing for battle, I waited for someone to visit me with the Transmigration magic.

 Soon, a figure appears, wavering.

 It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

''Wha, Demon King!

 The Demon Lord who appeared while wobbling his body, however, was very different from his plain appearance.

 There were scorch marks all over his body, the smell of fire smoldering in the air, and the base of his six pairs of wings were deeply scarred and bleeding painfully. He was breathing heavily, and his forehead was covered in a thick layer of greasy sweat.

 Rightly, he had wounds all over his body.

 He looked unbecoming of a demon king, as if he had crawled away to escape with his body.

"Well, Demon Lord...?

Demon King, what is the matter with you? An injury...

 As I rushed over to him, the Demon Lord fell towards me without any effort.

 It's light, just like cotton wool. The way he leaned against me, unreliably, was still very unlike that demon king.

 What in the world happened?
 What happened to this guy?

...Ike.... I'm glad to hear that. I can't let anyone other than Unu see me as I am now...

Demon Lord. Anyway, I'm going to stop the bleeding first. This amount of bleeding is not good!

Oh I'm sorry. I'm not very good at healing magic, but...

'I don't care about that! What has happened to you?

...revolt.

 The demon king said in a broken breath.

"I was attacked by those who betrayed me........ I'm sorry. I was confident that the ordinary demons couldn't catch us off-guard, but I let my guard down........

Betrayed by... who?

''........reminds me of Kanegasaki's retreat.......a hapless defeat......haha......''

Anyway, we have to close up the wound now--

Yeah, I suppose. Ggh.........the pain of the wound........is hard to talk about.......!

 I said that in a hushed tone.
 The demon king-sama started to take off his clothes right there and then.

.........uh........

It's not like I've never seen a woman's body at your age, is it? Seeing a woman's body in person is the best way to cast a spell for her to heal...

Yeah, that's true, but...

 I tried to look away, but the sight of the demon king with his clothes off caught my attention.

 Not in a disgusting way.

 Her body was sticky and stained with blood. From the deep wounds carved into her back, the blood must have run down her clothes and coated her entire body. Her modest breasts, her nubile waist, and even her thin legs were stained with red-black blood.

''..........!

I'm sorry... but I'm not very good at healing either... and I have no other means at this point than to rely on you...

Okay, okay. I'll just go to the bathroom to wash out the blood.

Um....

 I instructed Sati to prepare a bath.

 Carrying the feather-light demon king on my back, I followed Sati. The blood that kept flowing was soaking the immortal robes, but this was no time to worry about it.

 If I didn't close the wound as soon as possible, it was a matter of life and death, even if it was the Demon King-sama.
 I ran down the carpeted corridor at a fast pace.
