314 – Scene 314# Motive
*
“Are you back? “Demon King.”
After the meeting, I visited the forest and was greeted by Sherry, the chief of the Black Clay Tribe.
Since I became the Demon King, there has been a big change in the Demons’ attitude towards me.
At first, I was embarrassed because I immediately tried to put my head down on the floor. They realized that I was the devil just by looking at me.
I couldn’t tell if it was because they had more sensitive senses than humans or because they were more faithful to their instincts, but the sense of awe they had towards the Demon King was beyond my imagination.
Okay. If I had to compare it, I felt like I was a god rather than a king.
-Demon Lord… ! Ah!
-It is truly an honor to be able to meet the Demon King in my palace…
-Oh oh. You came to save us… !
The older demons were so overcome with emotion that they even shed tears, and the younger demons were so overwhelmed by my presence that they fell to their knees.
From the Demon’s point of view, the Demon King is the savior.
After giving up world hegemony to humans, the demons were despised and discriminated against and driven out to the barren and cold north.
The Demon King was a unique being who could save those demons and a being that could be called faith.
Of course, the reason I became the Demon King was not to save them. However, at this point, it was difficult to turn away those who believed in me and followed me.
So I decided to help the demons in my own way.
At the meeting, I warned them not to carelessly set their feet in the forest of demons. If even the forest, which was their final habitat, was taken away by humans, the demons would become extinct.
And in addition, the condition I presented to the empire was to recognize demons as equal to humans.
Among the people of this world, an atmosphere of disdain and caution toward demons still prevails. It may be difficult to immediately change such deep-rooted perceptions, but I am on the side of the empire… So, it was a direct request to the emperor. If the emperor, the ruler of this country, accepts my proposal, the effect will be great.
Even if the perception cannot be completely changed, if there is a Hwangmyeong, the people of the empire will at least outwardly change their attitude toward the demons.
I wish the horse people were treated better than they are now. Although it is difficult to talk about salvation grandiosely, I hope that at the end of my plan, there will be a future where they are on an equal footing with humans and maintain a gentle relationship with each other.
It wasn’t that long, but during that time, I developed a lot of affection for the demons of the Magic Forest.
The people I had only encountered in the original work and the people I met in real life felt very different. They were not much different from humans. In addition to experiencing joys and sorrows, each race had its own culture.
Although they are somewhat more aggressive than humans, it is clear that they are intelligent, as their name suggests.
“Oh… !”
A woman recognized me from over there and came this way. She was none other than Muri, the most senior annihilation maid.
“You’ve gotten a lot thinner while I haven’t seen you. Bryeon-“
“Hmm…”
“Oh! Sorry. Miss. You were very thin. No, right? Umm. If you’re a woman, being a little thin might not be a bad thing. But when you think about your health…”
“I’m worried too much. “Muri.”
“Ah, I’m sorry. It feels like it’s been a while since I last saw you…”
In the meantime, Muri and the annihilation maids stayed in the Demon Forest and commanded the Toin tribe and Demon people. It was all thanks to them that I was able to leave this place with peace of mind.
Then, Sherry, the chief of the Black Earth People, clapped his hands
“Now that I think about it, Demon King. Our village has been completed. Would you like to take a look?”
“Hmm.”
Following Muri’s guidance, I looked into the village of the Black Earth people built in the center of the forest. It was full of cute huts built using the surrounding trees and rocks, just like the houses where forest fairies live.
“It’s changed so much that I don’t recognize it.”
“Yes. It’s thanks to the Demon King’s concern.”
They were the weakest members of the Demon Forest and were pushed around by other Demons, moving from place to place in the forest. Of course, they could not even dream of a decent place to live and lived in a cave by digging a hole in the ground.
It was by no means flashy, but considering the life the indigenous people had lived, it was definitely a cozy home.
The newly built village was amazing, but what surprised me the most was how the Toin people showed human etiquette… It was also the fact that they adopted the manners of nobles.
“Our king. How have you been?”
“Meet the devil.”
They greet me with very polite manners. Not long ago, he was busy bowing down to me headfirst on the floor like other demons, but now I felt relaxed in his attitude. However, it never seemed arrogant or arrogant, and it gave off a so-called ‘learned look’ and gave off a sense of elegance.
While I was thinking about what kind of situation this was, Muri next to me quietly quietly.
“After all, they are the ones who serve the Count closest. In the meantime, Cynthia and I taught them simple manners as befits a count.”
Absolutely, as Muri said, the Toin tribe exuded an aristocratic feel. When I thought about it, I thought it would be okay.
As they evolved into the Black Earth People, they emerged as a new powerhouse in this forest. Moreover, with the addition of the position of a founding credit as a demon who served me, the demon king, first, its prestige seems to be sky-high.
The Black Earth people have become the most special race among the races of the Magic Forest. In short, they have become upper class. Since I am in such a position, I think it is good to act accordingly.
When interacting with the empire in the future, it would be convenient to have demons who know the etiquette of nobles. Moreover, if the demons who were looked down upon as monsters began to use human manners, people’s perception could change.
“Representatives of the new tribes that joined our side are requesting to meet the Demon King.”
“Today is difficult. “I’ll see you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”
“Yes. I will tell you that. “Then I will go to attend to other matters.”
“Okay.”
Sherry, the chief of the Black Earth People, stepped down in a polite manner. She must be busy too. As various races came under my control in a short period of time, Sherry seemed to be busy managing them.
Still, the future of the Black Earth people will be bright. As the indigenous people who were sold as slaves to other tribes return, their villages will gradually grow.
Also, as other races settle around the village, this place will become increasingly prosperous, so there is no need to worry about them anymore.
I’m worried to the point where I actually have to worry more about myself. I had a busy schedule going back and forth between the Imperial Army camp and the Demon Forest to conclude the northern expedition, and it was going to get even busier in the future.
“… The Count must be very busy too.”
Myuri, who saw Sheri retreating, opened her mouth. As she was Tristan’s nanny, she easily saw through my heart.
“Don’t worry. I can handle this kind of schedule. Rather, I think you did a good job while I was away.”
“That’s too much praise. This is thanks to the fact that the Toin people and other demons followed us. Oh, of course… “It may be because we are not ‘human’.”
“…”
Strictly speaking, Annihilation Maids are undead. Their bodies, which had been killed once by Milliam and turned into corpse dolls, were still dead.
Just as humans despised demons, demons were also wary of humans. So, the demons may have easily accepted the undead girls.
Was it because I was the one who turned them into undead in order to revive them?
Suddenly, I couldn’t say anything, as if something was stuck on my neck.
From noble mtl dot nete
At that time, Myuri smiled and said.
“We are always grateful to the Count. The reason we can open our eyes every morning and live this day is all because the Count saved us. Because he never gave up on us.”
She was comforting me with a very kind face. She was emphasizing that my choice was not wrong.
‘Thankfully…’
She wanted to say thank you to that face, but she couldn’t. Because that was something that did not suit Tristan at all.
But Myuri just responded with a smile, as if she had already understood my feelings.
“Are you okay. Rather… “How about the Count slowly passing away?”
“… ?”
Suddenly? It hasn’t been long since I came, but I was going to ask what you were talking about.
“Hmm. Thank you for taking the time to come here, but the Count still has work to do… “I want to.”
After saying that, Myuri glanced at the two people walking behind me with her head down.
Oh yeah. Murry is right.
When I turned around, the girls who had been following me the whole time were shocked and lowered their heads.
“Sorry…”
“Sorry…”
Blanche and Helga were looking at me in tears.
I guess they both thought I was angry because of a mistake they made at the meeting. They clearly told him to go back to the unit and wait for treatment, but he couldn’t resist and chased him all the way here.
It’s extremely difficult.
Even so for Helga, it was difficult to punish Blanchet.
It wasn’t so much that she made her mistakes as it was her lack of competency. If I had to fault her, it would be my fault for blindly trusting her capabilities.
Nevertheless, Blanche feels like she has let me down, so she clings to Helga for punishment.
That may have been because Blanche had a very responsible personality, but in other words, she was stubborn.
‘I’m so busy, I can’t believe I have to worry about such things!’
I couldn’t help but sigh.
What should I do with them…

“Inspiration! Are you listening to me?”
-Ah, yes. Don’t just listen.
The person who appeared in the transparent ice ball was an elderly man.
“Then why are you reacting like that? Did you hear me correctly? No, do you have dementia?”
-Noisy. Even if I get dementia, I will get it later than you.
“You’re funny. “It’s all about getting older.”
The person Laura was pouring out her dissatisfaction with was Mondri Cremont, who was said to be the closest to a wise man among active wizards. His status in the magic world was so high that an ordinary wizard would not even dare to speak to him. However, Laura was treating Mondry without offense.
-You still have no hair. Cluck… Even though you’re so old, are you still acting like a child? That’s why they get nicknames like ‘Ice Witch’.
“Joy. It’s a nickname given to me by those who were jealous of my unchanging appearance. But I don’t think it’s bad. “It’s not wrong.”
-Hehe… Do you no longer deny that she is a witch? I guess you’ve changed too.
Mondry, who said that, looked across the ice with an expression of surprise.
At first glance, they seemed like her spoiled granddaughter and her laid-back grandfather, but they had a lot in common.
The two men were both noblemen of the Seven Stars, the heads of their families and the pillars that supported this country. Not only that, but he is also a disciple of Myohail, a wise man who left his name in history… We were the same age. It was the so-called motive.
“That’s it, inspiration. “Just listen to my story.”
-Don’t keep calling me inspiration. Baby.
“Yes~. “Laura is such a brat.”
-Hang up.
“Oh, I was just joking, but why are you being so sensitive? Is it because you’re older?”
-Whoa… Done. So, did you even say that Leon harassed you earlier?
“Uh! I was so embarrassed I thought I was going to die. Please tell me something harsh about Leon later. Even if they don’t listen to me, they at least listen to you.”
-No… That friend has ears, so he just listens, but he probably doesn’t listen to me either… ?
“No, no. I don’t play tricks on you. That kid always does that to me! “You’re treating me like a child!”
-When didn’t you say it was okay to be treated like a child?
“That’s only when I’m happy!”
-Haha… What a shameless thing to say… But Laura.
“Huh?”
-Leon may have a bit of a rough personality, but he wouldn’t be like that for no reason.
Mondry’s expression could not be clearly seen through the ice. However, his voice conveyed through the magic drawn on ice was clear.
-What happened? I think there’s something you didn’t tell me…
“… That’s right.”
Only then did the playfulness disappear from Laura’s face
-Don’t waste time and tell me.
At Mondry’s urging, Laura spoke as if she had been waiting.
“The devil may have appeared.”
-What… ?!
His embarrassment spread beyond the ice.
However, Mondry quickly regained his rating and asked back.
-No… What do you mean it may have appeared?
“Still sharp. That’s right. I’m still not sure if he’s a demon lord or not. I think he’s a strong demon impersonating the demon lord… Well, if you’re unlucky, you could be the devil.”
-What is that…
“No. In fact, there is a bigger problem than that.”
-Huh… What problem is more serious than the devil?
“Listen carefully. Mondry.”
Only then did Laura get to the point.
“Maybe we…” ” . The empire could form an alliance with the demons.”
