Interlude – Welcome, Demon King!

Interlude – Welcome, Demon King!

(Why is the demon king here?)

The Demon King has come to Rosenberg Mansion.

This is not something to make me laugh or be able to joke about as a very bad joke.

Not a man. A very dangerous monster was in the household that I will inherit in the future.

All the servants and employees working here are my future vassals.

Their lives are in my hands.

Even if I don't have a chance... I will protect them!

"Cid..."

I called my friend to tell him my plan.

"You take care of protecting everyone. I'll try to make sure this guy doesn't touch anyone."

"Razel, this guy has enormous magical power, you can't take him on alone or beat him."

"So what of it, I can't let him kill everyone here."

I gritted my teeth hard.

"I'll buy you time so you can-"

"What are you mongrels jabbering about so much?"

A loud hoarse voice called out to us.

The demon king stood before us.

He was grinning sinisterly.

"Alright, I'm sick of looking for them myself. Also..."

"Also?"

"I'm hungry, I want meat. Have a steak."

"S-Sure."

I offered him bacon that was on my plate.

He walked to the dining room and sat down to eat.

Cid ran straight to the kitchen to have the cook prepare meat for him.

"... We narrowly avoided a bullet."

I feel like my heart is going to skip a beat.

"Excuse me."

Someone was talking to the demon king, it was Cordelia.

"It's rude to eat with your hands, use the cutlery, don't you have any manners?"

Apparently he was in the room and heard it was a friend of ours, but that's not reason enough to talk to him.

I ran to stop this bastard from piercing her stomach, but --

"I see, sorry."

For some reason he apologized.

I fell to the ground and couldn't believe my ears.

"Why did the demon king apologize?"

My life with the demon king living in my household has just begun.
