Chapter 48 – The Most Powerful Demon King in History. Rests
Afterward, I cast multiple layers of defensive magic on the King’s room. To prevent another attack by the Demon King’s Army.
Once done, I left Lumiel at the Royal Palace and returned to Sirene’s mansion on Jorm’s back.
In the air, I stroke Jorm’s neck.
“The human body tires easily.”
“You have been quite active, Your Majesty. I think it would be tiring even if you were not human. Besides, you are just not accustomed to the human body, are you?”
“Perhaps…… but in my previous life, I worked for about a week without a break.”
“………… I believe that to be abnormal even for a Demon.”
Jorm is so fast that we promptly arrive at Sirene’s mansion.
When we arrive, Jorm immediately shrinks and climbs on his shoulders.
As I walked through the mansion, the servants bowed deeply every time I passed them.
“The servants have been replaced.”
The servants of the mansion, all of whom were all hand-picked by the Prime Minister, had already been arrested by order of the Grand Duke.
And new servants have been assigned.
“The old man is surprisingly quick at his work.”
While Jorm is impressed, we go to the room where Phylfi is sleeping.
Phylfi was sleeping peacefully on the bed.
“Fortunately we returned before Her Highness woke up.”
“I’m really glad.”
I gently caress Phylfi’s cheek.
The curse and the malicious spell have been completely lifted. On top of that, the healing magic was effective.
After a good rest, Phylfi will be as spirited as Sirene.
“Okay, let’s sleep until morning?”
I lay down on the bed beside Phylfi.
“I think it would be fine to sleep not only till morning, but also through to the afternoon, or even the night. Your Majesty has been so active!”
Jorm curled up at my bedside.
『…… Your Majesty. Are you awake?』
『I’m awake, what’s wrong?』
Jorm speaks to me telepathically, as if he is trying not to wake up Phylfi.
『Where is the Demon God?』
『Urgan died before he could reveal that. But Urgan found him.』
『Could he be in the country ruled by the Demon King?』
『It’s a strong possibility, but …….』
If I, who defeated the First of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King’s Army, go there, the current Demon King will be wary.
It would be difficult to search for the Demon God by ignoring the one who now claims to be the Demon King.
『I’m sure Your Majesty can defeat the False Demon King!』
『My concern is that the one claiming to be the Demon King will join hands with the Demon God.』
『Ah, like Ulgan? That might be a little too much trouble.』
『For now, it might be better to hide our identities and go to the Demon Continent to gather information.』
『You can count on this Jorm to get you there!』
『Jorm, I’m counting on you.』
Then Jorm wagged his tail happily.
Feeling the soothing vibrations, I fell asleep.
