"So cool!"
gumin was practically vibrating with excitent, barely restraining herself from cheering out loud.
"Where exactly is this cool? Clearly, sothing terrible is about to happen!"
Kazuma Satou clutched his head, groaning under his breath.
"Kazuma, you really have no sense of romance!"
gumin's eyes flickered with red light, her entire body buzzing with exhilaration.
"Declaring war against the entire world—isn't that the coolest thing ever? Everyone back in the village would be rolling on the ground in excitent! This is the kind of event that deserves to be written into The Crimson Demons' Top 100 Coolest Monts!"
"I'm losing all hope in your Crimson Demon aesthetic!"
Kazuma refused to think about what was coming next.
No matter what, Axel was definitely going to beco the center of the world now. All sorts of weirdos would gather here to take down the Demon King, and then this so-called "beginner's town" would turn into a battleground for top-tier powerhouses.
Great. As soon as they got back, he was packing his things and leaving Axel.
"The Demon King is staying in Axel? And he's allowing anyone to challenge him?"
Darkness flushed with excitent, her face turning red.
"Doesn't that an I can challenge him anyti, get captured by him anyti, and be humiliated and trampled by him anyti?"
Her mind was already conjuring up all sorts of scenarios—dark dungeons, prison cells, bedrooms—and she trembled all over, barely suppressing a moan.
"What's happening?"
Aqua looked left and right, completely lost.
"By the way, who even are you? Why do you have a Divine Relic? And why are you talking so arrogantly?"
She pointed at the Demon King, whose presence was overwhelming the entire hall.
The adventurers behind her imdiately scrambled forward, tackling her to the ground.
If she pissed off the Demon King now, none of them were making it back alive today!
"You ask who I am?"
Eiji paused, as if genuinely considering the question.
He glanced at the demonic sword Gram in his hand, then suddenly grinned.
"Keh-keh-keh! My na is Emiya Shirou. Rember it well!"
Round it off, and I'm basically Emiya Shirou!
No problem there!
"Don't ss with !"
Kazuma suddenly exploded with anger, his Stealth skill breaking as he reappeared in the corridor outside the hall.
"Don't you dare drag the na of a hero of justice through the mud! Did you think there weren't any otaku among the reincarnators? And how many references did you just cram into one sentence?!"
"Kazuma?!"
Even gumin was shocked.
Kazuma, who hadn't dared to make a peep in front of the Demon King earlier, was now shouting back like this? Had he lost his mind?
"Crap!"
Kazuma snapped back to reality and imdiately covered his mouth, his face paling.
The Demon King's words had triggered his otaku instincts, and he'd reflexively yelled without rembering that the guy in front of him was a supre evil who could end their lives in an instant—the final boss of this world!
"Hmph. This is exactly why I say newbies like you, who've only crossed one world, are so naive."
Eiji snorted, his voice dripping with disdain.
"Listen well. As soone who's traveled through many worlds, I can tell you with absolute certainty—the Type-Moon world is real!"
"W-what?!"
Kazuma's face twisted with shock, his disbelief plain to see.
"Y-you an the legendary King of Knights—?"
"Several of them exist, actually."
"Se—sexy master?"
"That's my teacher."
"Boss!"
Kazuma Satou was so moved that he imdiately dropped to his knees.
"From now on, I voluntarily join the Demon King Army! If you tell to go west, I'll never go east—stop it, gumin, don't hold back! Today I've finally t my true boss! Please, boss, if I'm going to reincarnate, rather than being reborn in this shitty, scam-filled fantasy world, send to a 2D world instead!"
"Let's go ho! Kazuma, let's go ho now!"
gumin grabbed Kazuma and desperately tried to drag him away.
"That's right, let's hurry back!"
Darkness also panicked and quickly helped gumin pull Kazuma out of the hall.
"Stop it, what are you doing? Don't interrupt my bonding ti with the boss! Boss, save , these won have gone crazy! I'm loyal to you, I swear—"
"Kazuma, what are you doing?! How can you call soone else your boss? If you're going to worship anyone, it should be !"
Aqua quickly pushed through the crowd and anxiously chased after them.
"And didn't we promise you'd defeat the Demon King and send back to heaven? You can't just break your word—ow! Who hit the back of my head again?!"
Aqua looked around but couldn't spot her assailant, so she reluctantly followed Kazuma and the others.
"By the way, who was that arrogant masked guy earlier? His armor looked really cool—if we stole it, we could sell it for a lot, right? Maybe we could finally pay off our debts..."
Her voice trailed off.
Soon, it was completely inaudible.
It seed Kazuma had already been dragged out of the castle.
The adventurers exchanged glances. Since Kazuma and his group had left, could they leave too?
"Get lost, and spread the word!"
Eiji tossed away the remaining pebbles in his hand.
The adventurers, as if granted amnesty, scrambled away in an instant.
Soon, the chaotic hall was left with only Eiji, Airi, Beldia, and Wiz.
The undead knights had vanished without a trace—clearly recalled by a certain Headless Knight.
"Still playing dead?"
Eiji shot Beldia a cold glare.
"Ahaha, Your Majesty, it's been a while! How have you been?"
Beldia stood up awkwardly, rubbing his hands together.
"After this, you're cleaning all the toilets in the Demon King's Castle for a month—no, just the n's toilets!"
"Nooooooo!! Please have rcy, Your Majesty!!"
Beldia imdiately dropped to his knees, clutching Eiji's leg and wailing.
"Witch, return to the Demon King's Castle and bring people to renovate this place. From now on, this will be the stage where I welco powerful individuals from all over the world. It can't be too shabby!"
Unmoved, Eiji continued giving orders to the witch.
"Understood."
Airi rolled her eyes but nodded in agreent.
What a waste of the Demon King's Castle's manpower and resources!
"So this is what you ant by 'stirring things up,' Mr. Nango?"
Wiz stepped forward with a complicated expression.
"What, you have a problem with that?"
"N-No, of course not!"
Wiz frantically waved her hands. For the sake of those two billion, she couldn't possibly object!
Moreover, Eiji had never truly killed a single person. Even if the arrival of the Demon King might cause so panic, there was no doubt he stood on humanity's side, which greatly relieved Wiz.
"But why are you doing this?"
Wiz asked with a puzzled expression.
No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand Eiji's motives. What benefit was there in making Axel the center of the world's attention?
"Didn't I already tell you?"
Eiji grinned brightly, the corners of his lips curling up.
"I'm just bored, that's all!"
