I Am the Weakest of the Four Heavenly Kings but the Demons Are Obsessed With Me - I Am the Weakest of the Four Heavenly Kings but the Demons Are Obsessed With Me chapter 46

46 – The King of the Demon World, the Demon King.

The Demon World. Demon King Castle. The devil’s office.

The Demon King was in a very difficult situation.

I was able to recreate a traditional board game by becoming familiar with wooden pieces, but once I actually made it, there was no one I could enjoy playing the board game with. It was inevitable because something that had disappeared in history was recreated based on memory.

The Four Guardian Kings who have lived for more than hundreds of years would have known the rules of this board game…. For some reason, I haven’t been able to see everyone much lately.

Ah, we gathered at the Demon King’s Castle once because the territory of the Human World was taken away.

But at that time, I wasn’t in the mood to ask if we wanted to play a board game together. Everyone was very sharp… It was a bit thrilling to see the talented Four Heavenly Kings take responsibility for it themselves.

To be honest, I was used to losing so it didn’t really matter….

I didn’t say it because I thought it would just break the mood. Whatever it is, the demons want a monarch like an iron man. So he had to remain that kind of monarch. It is a symbol of fear and an absolute being that reigns over all evil.

If Lane were alive, wouldn’t it have been possible to create a more friendly atmosphere? I do not know.

‘Power is such a helpless thing….’

Although Scarlett, the representative of the Four Heavenly Kings, was also a former warrior, she was taking on too many tasks. She felt bad for wasting her time playing board games.

I organized the board game pieces I made so far on the desk.

Hundreds of objects and twelve totems made by carefully carving each piece of wood and engraving a magic circle.

It was a shame that these items, each of which could be said to be a top-quality magic tool, were left unattended like this. Wouldn’t it be better to get a smart demon and teach him the rules himself?

The rules are complicated, so it may take some time to get started, but… It will definitely be fun.

If the rules were taught to a few people and more people enjoyed this game, this board game could become popular again. If it becomes popular throughout the Demon World, it might not be lost until the next resurrection.

“Is there anyone out there?”

There was no answer.

Next time, I will consider hiring a secretary demon. Since there was no need to rush, I decided to first write down the rules of the board game and organize them.

This seemed like it would take a long time.

It didn’t matter if I just made it properly… There are many things to pay attention to when leaving rules in sentences. I remember that there were various exceptions and special regulations.

However, there were sentences that could be written right away without thinking about it.

This is a sentence that the person who taught me this game told me that it must be included first in the ‘rule book’. There was also an outcry that a rule book that does not contain this sentence cannot be called a rule book.

Write ‘Rules’ in large letters on the cover of the notebook.

This was written on the first page.

[Let’s play happily by following the rules and manners.]

Once I wrote down the sentences, the rules of the game began to come to mind one by one.

The conversation with the person who taught me this board game also came to mind. I remember saying a lot of somewhat absurd things.

For example, it is said that if you use the power of the devil, you can go to a strange place called ‘another world’.

That ‘other world’ is different from the human world, the demon world, the spirit world, and the divine world… It was literally said to be a world that flows by ‘different laws.’ It was also said that although there was no magic there, there were scholars who could do things more magical than magic. It wasn’t something I understood very well.

I remember listening to it with interest because it was just such an absurd boast.

The world is in the shape of a round sphere, there is no divinity, but most people fight for the gods, it is bright at night, the sound of music never fades, and golems that move with steel and lightning do the work….

He said that it is a place where even people with disabilities receive help without starving.

Is such a world really possible? I do not know. In both the human world and the demon world, aren’t the majority of people starving because they have nothing to eat?

Perhaps the demon world that ‘Rain’ tried to create may have been a similar society, but now it has become impossible to know.

Anyway, demons can survive without eating anything as long as they have enough magic. In that respect, Lane is definitely… They seemed to think like the humans of the Human World. Is it because Rain himself is a half-demon who can’t survive without eating?

Rain said that if resources were distributed evenly, the demons would unite and ‘move’ to increase the product.

In areas other than fighting, demons were prone to being extremely lazy. I think that because the desire for life is weak, the desire for struggle has become stronger.

Rain’s plan was ideal, but as a half-demon, Raine did not have enough time to get used to the race called ‘demon’. He knew this very well as he had protected this demon world from the moment the mythical era ended.

I thought that time would resolve such policy issues, so I just left them alone. I thought it was a problem that could be corrected little by little.

Well, the result was a huge failure.

“Hmm! As I get older, I think more and more. What was I going to do?”

Ah, I was writing down the rules for a traditional game.

“Let’s see… About objects and totems….”

There was a lot of time. After all, most of the work was done by a demon named Scarlett.

If the opportunity arose, it would have been worth considering handing over the position of Demon King to another Demon. If the demon god allows it.

‘There is no way the Demon God would allow it….’

It was difficult to even count how many times I had died.

As expected, the time called ‘eternity’ was too long. As I got older, I no longer had the will to fight.

It just repeats itself.

If you are resurrected, defeated by a hero, resurrected, defeated by a hero, and sometimes kill a hero, then human heroes will come and kill you, and you will be resurrected again.

I don’t think defeat is certain, but I’ve suffered too many defeats to expect victory.

What on earth are these warriors? He even defeats himself, who has lived for eternity, just because he overcame the ordeal of a few decades.

What are these people called heroes? A subject that has lived for only a few hundred years ends up blocking the self that has existed since time immemorial.

The goddess’ blessing is… Isn’t it so absurd?

The Demon God is fair, righteous, and just….

Sometimes, a blasphemous thought comes to mind, wishing that the demon god were as absurd as that goddess.

In order to erase those unholy thoughts, focus on something else. Focus on invading the Human World, focus on making the Demon World a better place, and focus on making board games.

“Hmm, what was the exact grammar of this part? [Non-creature magic]?”

From the moment when all demons were driven out of the world and the Age of Myth came to an end.

He became the devil.

He became the king who rules the demon world and reigns over all demons.

The king’s authority cannot be denied as it is given from God.

When he put down his power and looked at himself, he did not think that he was a good king.

He couldn’t be a good king, and he didn’t actually have the will to become one.

He reigns over all demons.

It wasn’t much different from a bird locked in a cage.

Even if the cage is huge and luxurious, that doesn’t mean it’s free.

[Category: Organism]

It is said that all of the ‘creatures’ in this traditional board game are permanents created by magic.

If your turn does not end, it will last forever, but once the game is over, you will be trapped in eternal darkness and must wait to be summoned again.

So, when summoned again, we fight again.

The moment the game ends, it returns to darkness again.

My situation was exactly similar to the ‘creature’ in this board game. When a warrior is born, he is also resurrected. When one is resurrected, a warrior is also born.

He was the hero’s opponent, and the hero was his opponent.

Then what happens to [Living things] That have no opponent? Is there value in a [Creature] That can’t be summoned or destroyed?

The appearance of the ‘traditional board game’, which has been buried by time and has completely disappeared from the demon world, seems to be a metaphor for one’s own destiny.

I worked hard to write down the rulebook.

So that even if all the objects are burned, they can be rebuilt.

『Rain, what are you making?』

“Wheelchair.”

There is no rubber, but… Something will work out with magic.

I was thinking of making a wheelchair so that the mermaid princess, who had no legs and could not speak, could get around on her own.

『It seems useful, but…. I don’t think you can climb the stairs on wheels?』

“Well, we need to build ramps here and there.”

The salary I had accumulated so far was quite large, and there was also a gift sent by the ‘Branch Manager at the End of the World’.

I was planning on starting a simple project with the cooperation of city hall.

『Business?』

“It might be more of a charity project, but yeah.”

『Charity and business, that’s a strange word that combines two words that don’t fit together!』

“Is that so…?”

In order to carry out the plan, we had to go to a place where ‘half man, half horse’ would find it difficult to set foot.

It is a church of the Goddess Church.

You can somehow get into the chapel, but… As expected, going to the church in person was a bit burdensome. At least recently, I was transported once as a colleague of a ‘hero’.

The priests of the Goddess Church… Well, they weren’t very nice people to deal with.

There were many troublesome people in various ways. In the first place, it is generally true that people are religious.

How strict are they… In order to keep the precept of ‘do not take God’s name in vain’, the part containing ‘God’s name’ was completely erased from most records existing on the continent.

That’s why most people refer to ‘goddess’ as just ‘goddess’.

Of course, when it comes to the old man’s level, you call him something profane or blasphemous, but that’s because your personality is so dirty.

『Who is that ‘old man’ that appears occasionally? It’s a bit surprising that Lane expresses other people so negatively. It doesn’t suit me!』

“The old man is the old man… What do you think of me?”

『What should I say about Lane…? “She’s a crazy person who looks at the person who kidnapped and imprisoned her and thinks, ‘I’m glad he grew up healthy and well,’ right?”

“Isn’t that a little bit conspiratorial…?”

『It’s true!』

Sharp’s habitual slander was ignored.

Anyway, as they were such a strict people, there was no one more trustworthy than the priests of the church when it came to ‘charity’.

The place where words like decadence and corruption were most inappropriate were the religious denominations of this world. It seemed even more so because it was a world where gods existed.

『By the way, Rain.』

“Huh?”

『Aren’t you trying to do too much for just one person? Omg! After all, you like fish, right?!』

“It’s not like that, is it?”

『Then? Why are you working so hard?』

Hmm, if I had to tell you the reason….

“It’s like a fairy tale, right? The Little Mermaid or something.”

『I’ve never heard of a fairy tale like that!』

“Well, as I was writing fairy tales for the emperor recently… There was a place that touched my heart a little.”

All fairy tales are stories about transformation.

Fantastic magic must be completed through magical daily life.

“It’s better for a fairy tale to have a happy ending, right?

『Rain… It’s really, really unique!』
