Chapter 217: CH 188

188 #22. Well, this is merely the beginning (3) >

“From this moment on, I am your demon king.”

I spoke in a dignified manner while ever so slightly looking down on my new subjects.

-But, master, you don’t look dignified at all? You just made people want to beat you up, you know?

The metal bat tried to get on my nerves again today, but I have become rather used to ignoring her.

“Are you really… Mister, you’re really our new king sent by the Demon God?”

“Oh, I’m a ‘Mister’, now is it?”

“S-sir, are you truly our king?”

“Okay, so?”

“The Demon God has said that the one bestowed with the divine power can only be thoroughly awakened through the endless pain!”

“Ooooh…”

I think I’ve heard that from before. If I were to alter that statement a bit, it kind of sounds eerily similar to what I often said as the evil organisation’s henchman, doesn’t it?

“As such, I shall not acknowledge you as the demon king chosen by the Demon God until you demonstrate the divine power!”

“I-I see.”

“I-indeed, there’s that still remaining!”

One by one, the others around me began nodding along as if their opinions were gradually lining up.

“Yes, there’s that.”

So, I also followed along and nodded away.
