In the Demon Realm’s Royal Capital (1)
The next day, I stayed one night at the inn that Renaugil showed .
The next day, I was guided by a subordinate of the King of the Demon Realm who was waiting for at the lobby of the Inn and brought to the royal castle.
“Hello, Yuki. It’s been a while.”
Finar was waiting for in the parlor-like room we arrived at.
“I know you must be busy, so I’m sorry for taking ti out of your busy schedule…” (Yuki)
“…Hello, Uncle Finar.” (Enne)
“Yes, hello, Enne, it’s been a while.”
Enne bowed her head, and Finar greeted her with a fresh smile that didn’t show his usual black-heartedness.
“Oh, I heard that Enne-chan is here with Yuki, so I prepared so snacks. Would you like so?”
“…! I’m delighted to have them. Thanks.” (Enne)
“Hahaha, isn’t that great, Enne, thanks, Finar.” (Yuki)
“This is the least I can do. It makes happy when people are happy with .”
The Demon King watched with a smile as Enne started eating happily next to .
Looking at the changes in the Demon King’s expression made think that he had a good developnt in character.
By the way, Rir was not here.
Although our pet was clean because he washes his body very well, I didn’t know if Finar would be fine about bringing him indoors, so I asked him to wait outside.
Also, Renaugil seed to be absent.
Well, he was the Demon King’s right-hand man, so he was probably doing so other job.
To be fair, it was pretty convenient that we were able to et with the Demon King so easily, but I guess this also affected his schedule quite a bit, or sothing.
So we were grateful for that.
“So, what’s up today, Yuki? I heard you have sothing to tell .”
“Oh, actually, I’m expanding my territory toward the Demon Realm right now. I was about to reach its border, so I thought I should talk to you about it.
“Oh, are you connecting the Demon Forest to here?”
“Well, kind of. You see, I told you that my wife is pregnant, right? I wanted to be able to call a doctor right away if sothing were to happen. I also just didn’t want to do it unannounced.”
“Oh, I see… that’s important. You’re very thoughtful too. I appreciate it. Okay, no problem. But it would be nice if you could let know where the location will be. That way, I can assign a liaison to you.”
That would an that I would have to tell him about the door that would be leading to my dungeon… but since this country would also be at risk from “” being able to co to the Demon Capital at any ti, I guess that would be about as good as it gets.
Well, of course, I would not connect it directly to my throne, but would make it go through several paths, so there would be almost no danger on my part, and they would be the ones carrying the burden of having a one-way connection.
“Okay, but I’m still in the process of expansion, so I should be able to widen the path I could convert in places you’ve selected. The building I am aiming for should be a… well, a mansion or sothing in the Demon King’s capital. I will of course buy it to beco my property.”
I didn’t have any cash on at the mont, but I could provide any number of pricey items as long as I could find it in my DP catalog.
Also, since this would be included in my dungeon expansion budget, it wouldn’t be cut off from my own allotted spending money. Fufufu.
While I was thinking that, Finar laughed and nodded his head.
“That’s fine. Well in that case, since you’ve done so much for , I’ll give you the house next to the royal castle, free of charge. I’ll have it ready to hand over by the end of the day.”
“Yeah, no, that would be bad, and I’ll buy it properly, just…”
“Don’t be shy. If we deal in monetary terms, it’s going to take a lot of ti, and it’s a bit of a hassle.”
I didn’t feel that such an exchange of money would be inconvenient… or maybe this was because of my pre-modern thinking. A free transfer would seem more like a bribe.
Hmmm, I couldn’t be sure.
Finar continued with another suggestion, “If that is no good, then yes… why not make it sothing like a Rogard Empire Embassy – or would that not be good for you?”
I thought about it for a mont.
Thinking more about it, it would certainly be a better idea to use it as an embassy of the Rogard Empire rather than as my residence.
Considering the maintenance and such, it might be better to do it that way.
“…Let’s do that. That’d be great.”
“Okay, that’s what I’ll be preparing. I’ll ask you to check on it later today.”
I thought that was the end of what we were going to talk about, but Finar continued, “Oh, instead of doing a favor, would you mind listening to for a mont?”
I was alard by his smiling face.
