By the time we returned to the road, which was completely shrouded in nighttime darkness, and arrived at Lilia-san's mansion, it was almost midnight.

'Welcome back, Miyama-sama.
'Miss Lunamaría. Sorry, I'm late.
'No, your daughters returned only a short time ago, so it's not that different.

　I apologize to Luna Maria, who probably heard the sound of the carriage at the door and came out to greet me, for the late hour, but I was told that coincidentally, Lilia and the others had only just returned a few minutes ago.

'How was the dinner party?'
Yeah, it was a lot of fun.
'I'm glad to hear it. Your daughter has been worried about you a lot...

　We continue down the hallway with some light banter.
　Hmmm. It's a strange feeling, or rather, when I compare them again, I feel that Lunamaria's atmosphere is different from Ein's. Ein's is polished to the extreme and has no gaps, while Lunamaria's is a little more laid back, if you could call it work-like. Ms. Ayn's is polished to the extreme and has no gaps at all, while Lunamaria's is more of a work-like figure, or perhaps a little more laid-back. The same maids are different in their moods, or is it simply that Ms. Ayn is abnormal?

　As I was thinking about this, I was led to the dining room, and after greeting Lilia-san and the others who greeted me, we talked about what happened to each of us while having tea together.


''That's right. I've heard that there was a heroic role in the past who wanted to live here permanently, but when it comes to reincarnating as a demon race...
I mean, is there such a thing as a way to reincarnate from the human race to the demon race in the first place?

　In the story, Lilia and her friends were particularly interested in the story of Noyn, a former Japanese, of course.
　It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with your friends.

''I can't say it's not there. In fact, that person is the same person as Kaito-san, but has lived for hundreds of years. There are many high-ranking demons who have lived for an enormous number of years and have their own unique secret arts that are still unknown to our human race.
It's just that when it comes to power to the extent that it can change the lifespan of an original species, the high-ranking demon race that Miyama-sama is acquainted with is at least a 'Count-class' or perhaps a 'Duke-class' high-ranking demon race. I don't.
Is that something like a class, like the Demon Race's class?
The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that there is no aristocracy or class system in the demon world like there is in the human world, but the powerful demon race is often compared to a baronial rank for convenience. Count-class demons are as powerful as the state alone, equal to or more powerful than the gods of the divine world. There were only a handful of duke-levels and the like above them in the wide demon world. At the very least, they're not beings that you can meet if you want to.

　There's no doubt that Black is a high-level demon race with tremendous power, but it seems that he's even more extraordinary than I'd imagined.
　But if they're that extraordinary, I think Lilia and Luna Maria should be able to recognize their names.

''Oh, I hadn't told Kite and the others yet, but a lot of high-level demon clans often use information-hiding magic on a regular basis, so a third party can't get information from them.''
'What?　What do you mean by that?
To use the example of the story you just told, Kite-san may have told us the name of the high-level demon race and other information normally, but we can't hear it, so it's like magic. If we were both aware of the same existence, we could hear it, but we can't get the information from Kite-san one way or the other.
''From what Miyama-sama has told us so far, we have only heard about the three demonic tribes, Noin-sama, Acht-sama and Rasulia-sama. As for the other people you mentioned, we didn't hear their numbers, their appearance, or their conversations.
Oh, really...

　
　If we assume that Kuro is a high-ranking demon, he has the power to rival the nation's war potential on his own, and if he were to walk the streets, he might cause a stir. It's probably similar to the perception of celebrities in disguise.

''For example, me and Luna naturally know the names and appearances of the Six Kings, but... for example, if Luna mentioned the name of the Dark Lord here, it would be like saying that if Kite and the others couldn't recognize that figure in their minds, they wouldn't be able to hear it.
It's a very advanced spell, and it consumes a lot of magic power when it's always deployed, so it's only possible if you're a very high-ranking demon race. So whether or not this information hiding magic can be used is one of the criteria for judging the rank. It's a good thing that there are no human beings who can use information hiding magic, so there are many parts of the effect that are unknown, such as the range of the effect...

　Lunamaria adds to Lilia-san's explanation.
　Hmmm. In other words, it seems that among the people I got to know this time, Noin-san, Ahto and Raz-san are ordinary demons, while Zechs-san and Ain-san are classified as high-level demons.

'Well, there are some existences that don't dare to use information hiding magic. If we're talking about the six kings that I just mentioned as examples... 'War King Megiddo Argettes Borgnes-sama,' 'World King Liliwood Yggdrasil-sama,' and 'Dragon King Magnawell Baskus Lard Karzvald-sama' don't use information hiding magic, so you all should be able to I thought I might be able to catch your name...

　Oh, what an awfully long name was given in rapid succession. I wonder if people from all over the world have long names for their kings.
　I mean, there was one name in there that sounded familiar. Wasn't the Dragon King's name the one that Acht had used as an example of how many times bigger than he was?

''I can tell just by hearing some of the names that they sound like great people, but why aren't those three people using information hiding magic?''

　As I was thinking about this, Kusunoki-san expressed the same feelings as I did, but with a question.

''The reasons are different for each. I'm not directly involved in this, but it's simply because the Warlord doesn't like to hide things like that. The number of the 界王-sama's subordinates is very large, and he himself is an object of worship in some areas.
........I think I've learned once again that the Sixth King is a terrible idea.

　The Dragon King was even bigger than I imagined!　They say it's a mountain range or something like that, so it's thousands of meters!　Compared to that, even a 5 meter long Acht might be like a dwarf. If a thing of that size were to move around, just walking around would cause an earthquake or something....

Well, we won't have the chance to meet the Sixth King in person for the first time, but you can still see him during the Festival of Heroes.
It's not as much fun as it is terrifying...
Normally, even noblemen don't have the opportunity to get to know high-ranking demons. And even eating together with them, it's quite an odd situation for you, Miyama-sama.
Being blessed with a good match is a talent of its own. To have your name remembered by a high-ranking demon clan is also a kind of power in itself... Please cherish it.
Oh, yes.

　Hmmm... If you ask me, it's probably fortunate that I've been able to interact with such a tremendous being. Yes, I have many thoughts, but let's keep a positive outlook for now.
　Even nobles can't get to know each other very well, but someone who comes to visit you almost every night, or teaches you magic... once again, it's an extraordinary situation.

''I mean, wouldn't it be better for the young lady to share some of her talent with Miyama-sama?''
''Uggh........Indeed, Kite's social skills are something to be emulated. If you have any tips, please teach me........
... hahahaha...

　For some reason, I can't help but smile bitterly back at Lilia-san, who is looking at me with respect.
　I can't tell you.......I can't tell you that I was a loner who didn't even have any friends in my former world. The current relationship is just the result of being swept along by Kuro, and it's just like my comic skills or something like that.

　Dear Mom, Dad - I was supposed to be an elite person when I was on Earth, but for some reason, on this side of the world - I seem to have one foot in a networking cheat.
