There's only one question we can ask.

　Think...... What questions do you want me to ask?

　Just for now ... on hold?

　--!

　The "Back" button is missing from the smartphone screen.

　I can't go back to the previous screen without asking a question. In other words, I can't create a dominant territory, create subordinates, or allocate BP.

　I scratch my head and come up with all sorts of questions.

　Q: What happened?　A: The World Relief Project

　Q: What's the World Salvation Project?　A: It's just a repetition of what the mastermind was telling you.

　Q: What's my last name?　...and what do you know about it?

　Q: Who is the mastermind behind this?　...and what do you know about it?

　Q: How do I get back from this screen?　

　I think of various questions and eliminate them from the candidates.

　　The most powerful weapon ever!　The most powerful crew in the world!　I'm sure that's what comes to mind but that's the question, right?

　I'll put together all the information I know.

　I am the Demon King. But there are many demon kings. About a million, to be specific. A million Demon Lords?　What's that?　And then my thoughts drifted off.

　What a demon king should do. Create a dominion area. Create the subordinates as well. Defeating the invading [Lowe].

　The invasion starts in a month. Until then, they won't invade and I won't be able to leave the dominion realm.

　When I or my subordinates defeat the enemy, we will grow - perhaps even level up.

　Eventually, I'll also fight with other Chaos to expand my control territory. Or, other [Chaos] will also invade.

　The point of increasing the dominion area is the military family.

　Hm?　What's your family?

　Separate from your people?　As for the image, the belly button?　My boys?　Blood?

　Didn't the mastermind frequently use the word [Military]?

　I can only ask one question--what is a family member?

　Is this possible?

　Are there any other meaningful questions?　I stretch out my thoughts.

　Attributes: solitary. Also known as "lone person. I weave various stories (fantasies) in my brain.

　When I finished spinning various stories - simulations - in my brain, I came to a concern.

　I operate my smartphone and type in a question that can only be asked one way.

-- 'Is it possible for the Demon King, or his subordinates, to go outside of his control area?'

It's possible for the Demon King to do so conditionally if his level is higher. His subordinates will be able to do the same, subject to the condition that the Demon Lord's level is increased.

　--!

　My hunch was true. At the same time, what are the conditions!　And a new question arises.

　--!

　The screen didn't go back to the first item, but instead displayed a single sentence.

'Marvelous!　Great question!　As a bonus, you will receive 10 points of BP.

　Huh?　An unexpected byproduct was shown on the screen.

　Thus, I had put my major concerns to rest, and as an unexpected byproduct, I had won BP.


　　◆


　What I need to do next. According to the Demon King's I-Ro-Ha☆, it's the allocation of BP.

　Control your smartphone and select [BP Allocation].

　The items to be allocated are 【Body】, 【Magic Power】, 【Knowledge】, 【Creation】 and 【Smelting】.

　The current values are all E. The BP you have is 20.

　It's E, right? Normally, it would be E...D...C...B...A, in that order.

　But they wouldn't become stronger in the order of E...F...G...H...I...?

　But assuming A is the strongest the BP needed to get from E to A is 4. Since there are five different items that can be allocated, the BP needed to get them all to A is 20.

　And the BP I have now is 20.

　Huh?　No way is it suddenly all A!

　The original idea was to have a BP of 10. Or a balanced type where all items are C. Or a balanced type that makes all items C. Was that what he was expecting?

　Well, it doesn't matter to me!

　I was so delusional earlier, and I was trying to figure out which items to allocate... but now I've ruined it!

　I grinned at Nimanima, and allocated BP from the items I'd once envisioned.

　I touch the 【Renewal】 item.

　Huh?

　The screen shows the [E] value next to the smelting.

　Is it not sensitive?

　I touched the [Refining] item again.

　--!

　This time, the side of the smelting was labeled [D].

　Phew. Good. I take a breath and touch the 【Refining】 item again.

　Huh?

The screen shows the same value as [D] next to the smelting.

　Why is it so insensitive!　I double tapped--touching the 【Renewal】 item twice in a row.

　........Heh?

The screen shows the same value as [D] next to Alchemy.

　Do I have to change models?　We've only been here less than six months.　It's a demon king in [chaos], but will the mobile shop support it?　I mean, can this app take over?

　I touch [Rensheng] until it reacts.

　Then, on the third touch, the value next to 【Renewal】 changed to 【C】.

　Then I touch the 【Renewal】 item in succession in desperation until it reacts.

　Then, it still didn't react at first, but eventually the value next to the 【Renewal】 item changed to 【B】.

　It's gradually becoming less and less responsive........ Please don't let it continue to malfunction or something like that.

　I take a glance at the smartphone that has become unresponsive.

　--!

　Huh?

　I was buoyed by the confirmation of All-A and then frustrated by the smartphone's poor response, and as my vision was narrowing, I saw a word in my vision.

　"BP: 3

　Huh?

　Before the BP was allocated, it was indeed shown as 20.

　Now it's 3.

　I have panic syndrome.

　Cancel!　Cancel!　Where's the cancel button!

　Everywhere I look on my smartphone, I can't find the cancel button.

"Whoa!?!!

　I scream out of confusion.

　But time is not going back.

　Calm down........calm down.......calm down....

　Let's cool off for once. I open the small single occupancy freezer to get the ice out.

　--!

　Inside the freezer was a silvery white sphere.

　Huh?　What is this?

　No way, this is the [true core]?

　I was in a state of further panic.
