Ten days after I welcomed Demon King Takahara under my command, I was wondering which Demon King I would like to have under my command next.

　As I browsed through message boards and blogs where regional topics of conversation flourished, I wondered which Demon King would be my next ruler.　And it was a delightful vision of the future.

　The Beast King of proximity attackers--Takahar. The long range attacker elemental elf--Sara. The all-purpose attacker Elf Lord who was recently made a subordinate--Cain. Healer Elf.

　The missing positions are one tank and two attackers.

　And from among them I'd like to select a Demon King who is skilled in leadership and is good at leading.

　Should the leader be a Demon King who is good at long-range attacks?　It's easier to lead when you can see the whole thing from the back, right?　

　Is it possible to create a Vampire Baron with the trait [Daylight Vampire] and leave him as the leader?　However, it's a painful 1000 less maximum CP........

　I'm seriously worried, but I'm agonizing over a fun future forecast...

　--~♪

　My smartphone made an electronic sound announcing an incoming call.

　When I took out my smartphone and checked the screen, I saw that the caller was Lina.

　I hadn't particularly observed the area of control that Lina's troops were invading since the hazard rank was low, but... what do you want?

Hello. What's up?
Lina. "Control of the territory you controlled during the invasion is complete.
Good night. So, how's it going?

　Lina had controlled numerous areas of control in her life, but she had never called to tell him the completion report.

'I need to talk to you about something. Do you have a moment after this?''
You're coming here?
"I'd like to discuss this face-to-face, if I could.
Copy that. I'll set up a transference device that will connect to my location from the control area where Lina is, so wait for me.
"Thank God.

　I hung up the call with Lina and operated my smartphone. I set up the 【Transition Device】 that connects my room with the innermost part of the controlled area that Lina's troops had just taken control of.

　Then, in less than a minute, the 【Transition Device】 that I set up glowed, and a woman carrying a jet-black sword - Lina appeared from the light.

''Welcome back.''
I'm home.

　I raise one hand in greeting, and Lina, who emerged from the [Transference Device], also replies with a smile on her face.

''What is it you want to discuss?''

　We don't want to make small talk with each other. I cut to the chase.

'I'm at level 50,'
"--?　Congratulations.

　I couldn't read the true meaning of the words told by Lina's mouth, and a moment was free, but I returned the words that seemed appropriate for now.

　 What is the true meaning associated with this?　You want a present?　Or requests for improved living space?

　Unlike Chloe and the others, Lina is not a created subordinate, but a former human subordinate. Because she is a member of the family, she follows my orders to the letter, but that doesn't mean her loyalty is always high.

　Since ancient times, people have rewarded those who have performed well by rewarding them with further loyalty. Then it would be mainly a subterfuge to disregard Lina's request this time.

　 So ... is it still a request for improved living space?

　Well, CP has also increased considerably compared to when I had Lina under my control. He now lives in a house of about 30 square meters - he lives with canon. Would I like a bigger house?　Or do you want a new piece of furniture?

Lina used to be an avid fencer, didn't she?
Yeah.
Would you prefer Japanese style to Western style, then?
"...?　What are you talking about?
Hmm?　I thought I'd improve your living space to celebrate your leveling up?
I'm happy enough with the house I have now.

　Huh?　I'm afraid I've made a mistake.

Then what do you want?　Don't tell me it's not just a report of a level up.
'When the level grew to 50, I saw this sentence on the screen...'

　Lina says that and holds out the smartphone screen to me.

　--!

''Your level has reached 50. Please choose where you want your class to evolve to.''

　It was an evolution by no means.

　Currently, the humanity of [Lowe] is assigned to one of the classes of warriors, wizards, monks, or adventurers. I hadn't heard any information about the existence of any other classes but.......they evolve at level 50?

　I instruct Lina to move on.

''Please select a place to evolve from the following classes.

　Swordsman.
　heavyweight warrior
　samurai
　fighter (for)
　wizard
　Knight

　There are six classes to choose from.

　Each class is as unfriendly as ever, with no explanation of the class at all.

''Which one do you think Theon should choose?''

　Lina asks me in a serious tone.

'What is Lina's current status?'
Body C, knowledge G, magic H.

　Lina had waved all of her BP to her physical body. However, humanity's BP only went up by 1 when they leveled up, and the BP required to raise their status ranks was different from that of the Demon King, so even when they reached level 50, it was a sad result of a C stop.

''Canon!''
Hi. Are you finished with our little secret?

　I called up the search tool in case of trouble, and the canon flew in with a nimble smile.

Lina can evolve. Do you have any information?
What?　Lina-san, you're finally going to quit being a human?
Canon. My evolution is a class. My race doesn't change... in my opinion.

　Lina smiles at the surprised canon.

'Hoho~. The class of humanity evolves........ Ehhh........unfortunately, I don't have that knowledge....
Tch!　That's all right. Let's gather some information.
What?　You just clicked your tongue--

　Leaving Kanon to roll up her skirt, I began to use my smartphone to gather information.


　◆


　Two hours of gathering information about the class they were evolving to.

　The result - a disastrous defeat.

　He couldn't find any information about the class he was evolving to, or even that he would evolve once he reached level 50.

　A possible possibility - Lina was the first human to reach level 50.

　If you're limited to Kanazawa City, that possibility is quite possible. Perhaps even if it was limited to Ishikawa Prefecture, that possibility was possible. But if you think about the whole of Japan it's hard to imagine that possibility. And if we consider the whole world, the possibility is zero.

　If that's the case, then why can't we find information that tells us that the human race can evolve to a level of 50?　The answer was soon to be found.

'You're regulated,'

　The answer was humanity - the regulation of information by governments.

　I couldn't get any information about the class to which I had evolved, but one sentence hit me with the keyword level 50.

'We will pay a reward for pioneers who have exceeded level 40. Please be sure to report to the nearest government office. If you are found to be active beyond level 50 without notification, you will be subject to punishment. Please be careful.

　The government managed humanity over level 40. Why do they manage them?　Initially I thought it was to secure a candidate for bravery, but when I saw the second half of the sentence - 'If you are found to be active beyond level 50 without notification, you will be subject to punishment', I realized the true meaning of this sentence.

　 They are aware that the Demon King can use the Internet. However, it is impossible to close the Internet in today's online society. In the current developed society, a single radio tower supplemented the widespread internet environment, and it was impossible to partially cut off only the area of control.

　

　There was a lot of information that was useful to the enemy (the demon king) that was also useful to our allies (humanity), and there were more than a certain number of human beings who lacked internet literacy. It was impossible to regulate everything in the world of the Internet, even for the government.

　So the truth is that the government, as a bitter measure, began to control the higher levels of humanity that would have more important information.

Doesn't 'Laplace' have any useful information?
''Hmmm.......no information on where the human class evolved.......''
So I can only guess from the name...
Well.....

　In the end, we had to choose where Lina would evolve by hand.
