It's been 78 days since I became the Demon King.

　I was enjoying a full life as a Demon King.

　My life's work lately has been three things.

　One is to fight off the invading humans.

　For some reason, the receptionist at the entrance to the dominion area was removed, and the humans who were standing in line are no longer there, but the human race is still constantly invading my dominion area, as if they can't forget the delicious taste they had once had. .


　The first was to observe the progress of our military units on the expedition.

　There are currently four of them in total. Chloe, a dark elf (va*in*). Silver, a Kobold Knight (va*in*), Blue, a Goblin Fighter (male) and Hope, a Lycanthrope (male). In addition to these four, there is a Dark Elf (♀) under Chloe, a Kobold Fighter (♀) under Silver, a Goblin Archer (♀) under Blue, and a Lycanthrope (♀) under Hope, for a total of eight (8) people (ippy) on an expedition.

　The name comes from Chloe because she is a black elf. Silver because of the shade of equipment (silver series) that changed its appearance from other kobolds for evolution. Blue for the same reason. Lycanthrope was named Hope in the hope that he would become stronger as he evolved........

　........simple?

　Incidentally, only one dark elf of the same species could be set up under a single dark elf, but five kobolds could be set up as long as they were of the same species, and an unbeatable ten goblins could be set up as long as they were of the same species.

　Lycanthrope?　There was one, just like the dark elves. I believe it will change in time!

　The reason for not setting the maximum number of subordinates was due to equipment conflicts.

　In the beginning, the maximum number of subordinates was set for all the families. In addition to these four, there were other orcish families in the military family.

　However, the moment the families stepped out of the controlled territory - the moment they stepped out of the control zone - they were ready to fight.

　A hell awaits us all, a screaming hell.

　A group of deformed monsters suddenly appeared from the dungeon that I recognized as the "earning ground".

　In an instant, the entrance to my area of control was transformed into a battlefield of dead bodies piled up.

　The saving grace for humanity - and a painful blow to me - was that many of the people gathered there were those who were eager to defeat the monsters from now on.

　As a result, I lost many of my subordinates and my subordinate orcs, who had spent a great deal of CP.

　I ordered my subordinates to retreat and carefully selected my subordinates, all of whom were dressed in high-ranking equipment.

　Although they had stumbled out of the gate, the military members were now happily attacking humanity and breaking into other demon king's territory, gaining experience in moderation.

　Incidentally, there are a few new facts that have come to light about their families.

　For one thing, my subordinates can speak the same language as me - Japanese. Therefore, as long as they are in my family, I can communicate with them and they can also communicate with each other.

　The family members can communicate with each other no matter how far away they are from each other. The only thing that can be communicated is my unilateral will. It's not a good idea to be able to get your hands on any of them, but it's a good idea to be able to use them in a way that's not too difficult. There was no response from the other side, so all I could do was use my smartphone to see the results of the instructions I gave.


　One of my last life's work was exercise.

　You can replace it with discipline. In the innermost part of the dominion area, I was wielding various weapons and engaged in a series of mock battles with my subordinates.

　Well, exercise is good. When I was a human, I was an indoor person. I couldn't understand the psychology of someone running around outside on a hot day, or frolicking in the snow-covered mountains. Engaging in one's hobby in an air-conditioned room - this was the truth (Justice).

　But that........what can I say?　Is it fun to teach a class in a subject you're good at?

　When he finally became the Demon King and his own athleticism, reflexes, and muscle strength all increased, the exercise was fun.

　Furthermore, changing the subordinates that 'absorbed' him periodically, and mastering special abilities such as sword skills and spear skills while handling his signature weapon was exceptionally fun.

　Moreover, even after you change the person you "absorb" and lose your special abilities, you can still somehow remember the feeling you had when you were handling them. He was originally a sloppy amateur indoorist. It was really fun to handle the various weapons that improved to the point where I could experience it myself.

　Three days ago, I also experienced my first human battle.

　They were level 1, and although they had come to gain experience against slimes and rats on the first level, they were still nervous about fighting for the first time. The result was an overwhelming victory, but I didn't feel any of the guilt I had feared after defeating the humans.

　In this way, through repeated mock battles and practice, I had grown not only in terms of status value, but also in terms of experience.


　　◆


　Whoa!　I've accumulated 300 CP!

　I chuckle at the CP number indicated on my smartphone.

　Currently, there are countless ways to use the CP accumulated to its maximum value.



　I asked the dark elf who was standing by my side. It was currently 'absorbing' the dark elf. In other words, it was possible to have a conversation with the dark elf as long as the dark elf was the other party.

''As the Master wills........''

　The dark elf bows his head reverently (grudgingly).

　This is it......... It is possible to have a conversation with your subordinates, but it cannot be established.

　In other words, an absolute yes-man. You will not communicate your intentions (whether or not there are any or not is unclear) to them.

　Compared to the days of talking to goblins and kobolds who couldn't understand the language, it's a big improvement, but honestly, it wasn't enough.

　Incidentally, I once cornered him, "My will is asking for your opinion," but he only piled on the self-deprecating words and didn't turn around.

　It's no use. I'll figure it out for myself.... I mean, I had decided what I was going to do.

　I take control of my smartphone and tap the 【Refining】 item.

　I'm going to be a little bit extravagant and refine a weapon for myself.

　I smelted the least CP-consuming B-ranked weapon, though it consumes 300 CP, the Spear of Mithril.

　I tried five different weapons: sword, shield, axe, bow and spear, but the spear was the easiest to use.

　It's a good thing that you can't get away with it.

　I held the "Mithril's Spear" with its pale blue blade at the tip and admired the mystical whole.

　It's lighter than it looks.

　I swing it down twice vertically, nudge it away once sideways, and finally unleash three stabs to check the feel.

　Is it time for me to make my two-level debut?

　What I'm referring to is a two-tiered debut, a battle against a certain amount of skilled humanity invading two levels.

　I checked my smartphone and saw that the twelve humans who had invaded two hours ago were engaged in a fight to the death with a horde of ghouls.

　Level 3 in terms of strength?　Just in time.

　I took my subordinates and moved to the human race, which was in a death struggle with the ghouls.
