One old man exhales into the sound heard from the video board (TV).
"... as always, he's a bad apprentice to give up"
There seemed to be a thin grin in the mouth of the red-haired old man who shrugged so.
"[Black Demon Instructor] So you're a brave man..."
The former demon king of the Horn watches his disciple win as he sits on his chair.
"If you survived your father's trials as a child, you wouldn't give in to whatever ordeal followed in your life."
Guests, not.
It should be called an intruder.
But the old man... my father is not surprised by my appearance.
"What can I do for you?
"Is that the first thing you say to my son, who hasn't seen him in over ten years?
"This, what, Tagumi, was it? Did you think of this?
My father was in Lord Leme's hometown.
At the time it turns out to be his master, the search location is limited. Though, I thought he was disappearing, by the way.
On my desk, there were many notes.
When you become a person who knows where he is and sends letters... well, Lord Leme. There may be others, but it can't be unless it's important for my father to open the letter he received.
If he disappears, he won't be able to receive news from his apprentice... how can that be?
"It's not like it's original. The militants do it every once in a while, and look, there's gonna be doubles and stuff in sports, right? Just like that."
"Right. I thought of something funny for you."
"Haha, why do you care if your father praised you for this?"
I don't think there's anything I can do about it is add or subtract my own idiocy that makes me happy, as much as a little praise was given to my father, who had been gone for ten years.
But there's no choice. He is the best demon king.
"How could you give a human child a horn?
"Because he was more than a fool."
"... Well, certainly, [Black Demon Mentor], who publicly declares he will be a brave man from the time of his debut, cannot be said to be clever. I suppose he's kind of a well-thought out person, though?
"That's why. A fool without thought cannot be saved. But after thinking about it, he keeps trying that he can't give up. A spirit that never succumbs to a crappy reality, pushed by the world or the people around it. Ten kids had it."
…………
"Dad didn't run away."
My father was just a strong, just an admirable demon king.
If a brave man is strong, he will rejoice and praise you.
For the reason that he was a demon, he just called himself the holder of an exercisable talent for black magic, and made it dangerous.
"I don't care. I'm tired of it. That's boring over there...... who's doing the Demon King now?
She's my daughter. She's my father's grandson.
"Lou."
"Oh, it's good to remember my grandson's nickname"
"Hmm."
"And your apprentice is now the Staff of the Demon King's Army."
"If that's what you decide, it's not what Non tells you."
"You're buying a lot more expensive. It's enough to give you horns, naturally."
"What, you wanted it?
"Did you give it to me when I said you wanted it? You wouldn't even have given me an archery."
"I can't stand you"
Once upon a time, my father's words sounded terribly cold.
But now, I can absorb the sincerity of the word, I feel.
Doesn't that mean give up because you don't have talent, but you didn't let me do it because you're going to die?
"Even though I could stand a human boy?
"It's not the body, it's the mind's problem"
"... oh, I see"
No more convincing.
I don't like to fight. I like to see the fight, but I don't want to turn to the side I fight. [Job title] called [Demon King] doesn't fit my mind.
I can't stand harsh training. I can't work hard because I don't have anything to ask for before I cross.
Were they spotted?
So, what can I do for you?
Back to the first question.
"I'll end the dungeon offense"
"Right."
"I'm going to erase the perception that demons are evil."
"Fine."
"When that happens, my father will be just a strong demon king. So..."
"Crap."
"No crap......!
This is revenge.
to the world that drove my father out. to the industry.
And a revolution.
To develop the future of all discriminated demons, including my father.
"Right."
"... will take the job away from an apprentice who has completed a corner re-employment, but I want you to be assured. People like him can live in a new world. I don't hate adventurers."
Rather the other way round: on the side of all who are unhappy.
"If that's what you want, just do it. I need to ask Non."
"I want you to come back to the mightiest demon king"
"That's for Non to decide. And now, I don't feel like it."
"How can I care?"
"... if an enemy worthy of using a horn appears or"
My father said blushing and immediately waved like a pain in the ass, "No, forget it... go home now".
The face is not for me, but for the disciple on the screen.
- Are you expecting me, that much? To Lord Leme?
"... I'll write to you."
"Don't expect a reply"
That's how I left my father's house.
With a new goal in mind: the nurturing of enemies that my father deserves to fight.
Fortunately, there are several guesses.

"Heh, this guy is good (,,)"
"... strong?
"Oh, [Black Demon Instructor], but I'm working out pretty good with this move. I don't know if you're just watching, but black magic is probably awesome."
"But I heard [Black Demon Mentor] is not popular"
"I don't care (,,,,,). I feel like I'm definitely going to beat you from this guy. Besides, I actually won. Yeah, let's go with this bug man and invite him to my party."
"It's hard to make a demonic sub-human an adventurer"
Maybe this one won't work.
But someone named Leme has been looking for a job ever since they kicked him out of the party. The fact that he appeared on the stage as an adventurer should mean that.
"Again, it doesn't matter. You said you wanted me, so you just got it."
The boy, when he was ten, [Title (Job)] had just been found.
The same is true of me who responds to conversations next door.
He is [the brave]. Maybe this is what I should dare call him the other day when I returned from The Spirit Temple.
The third great spiritual contractor in this era, the first to be found in the body of the Water Spirit in sixty years - with the modern [lake brave].
Speaking of spiritual character alone, line up in [Storm Brave] Aerial, [Flame Brave] Phoenix.
"It's Mr. Leme, isn't it? Let's meet this guy. What the hell, that guy"
"Yeah, well, that guy would arrange a lot of things. Common sense is like shit, I don't care. Me and my people are winning, and I'm gonna teach the world that what adventurers need is strength. Huh?"
"... yeah, you are"
It was not until a little while after this that we met Mr. Lemé.
◇
"Nico, you and... what Lord Lemme is trying to say is that - there's a way of showing 'the gap', isn't there?
Discussions reopened after the tournament.
Now all my people are gathered together, but unlike last time, it doesn't seem to be meant to point out my mistakes.
"Ugh, yeah."
After all, it seemed to pass on properly.
My answer.
The popularity established as the 'Silver Prince' is a very valuable one.
In the first place, there are already fans who like this, and it's popular supported by people like that. That's all I know.
The thought of not being able to scorn them is also proper.
On top of that, I couldn't get rid of my longing.
"Oh, isn't that super good? I love Prince Nicolas, too, but I was invited by the first Nicolas to become an adventurer. If that's acceptable, that's the best part."
[Bandit] Leila is in for a ride.
Addition of elements, not reorientation.
For example, a good looking person who can do anything turns out to be actually bad at bugs.
Of course, you'd have an opinion of being disillusioned. With lots of mountain people, it's only natural to get all sorts of opinions.
But most of the 'fans' honestly think 'cute'.
Or I've actually seen a lot of examples of that.
Conversely, people who sold with slightly missing characters came to work on cooking shows after it turned out that only cooking was professional.
People prefer unexpectedness.
Calm and smart 'Silver Prince'. But I also have something hot and rough in my chest... the way it looks.
Phil didn't get it together in the first place because of the style that I once failed to do.
But in that tournament, in that semifinals, it wasn't just me, it was Phil's fight - the audience was boiling.
Above all, Phil, who is studying adventurer operations, cannot be ignored.
"Let's be honest, it's worth a try"
Amazingly sorry, my brother said.
"Ugh, yeah......! Oh, there's..."
"Don't get me wrong. I haven't decided to broadcast it yet. Dive into the dungeon to try first. And I'll check your gaps and your guys over the camera. If everyone thinks that's" going to take it, "it's for hire. If you don't, you'll have to pay for that dungeon attack."
Tell Phil to keep his eyes off this one. It's lit.
But I think it's a realistic drop.
Try it. If it doesn't look right, stop. You do what I want, so I'm responsible.
"Heh, I hope Phil likes it. Personally, I'd like to see 'Kong' too. I'd like to see some rough Phil."
Fairy [Wizard] Luli sits on his brother's shoulder and says with his legs plumped.
"… take into account. In my case, the world has already seen me. Depends on the echo."
"Fun ~"
"... If Nicolas is to come forward, we must also change the assembly of the battle"
[Clean White Knight] Marc's sober words.
"So, shall we discuss it?"
That's how the party talks continue.
The first challenge was to take revenge and decide on that dungeon.
I wonder if I still have him now.
◇
After the tournament.
I feel extra noticeable because it's something Mr. Aerial praises while shouldering at the awards ceremony, but I managed to end it.
I should also thank my colleagues, such as Kash and Mira, who cheered so much that their voices withered in the support seats.
I was just talking to Berito - not you, Mr. Nicolas - about going back to life in the holding room, visitor.
Now I wonder who, it was Phoenix.
"Congratulations on winning"
"Ah."
"Miss Nicolas, too, was a great fight"
"Oh, thank you...... oh my goodness"
"But aren't you overly burdened with the lemme of [Black Demon Instructor]? If I were you..."
Block your mouth.
"That's fine. It's an operation I put together."
"Gu, Mu Gu"
Get your hands off me.
"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about how I can stand around better while I show you your fight."
"Yes... I mean, it's my lack of power, and I thought it was very helpful."
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nicola was there.
"No, you're right. Sorry, I seem a little jealous of being shown your breathtaking collaboration with my best friend."
"Oh, no...! Well, I'm glad."
"Man's jealousy is disgusting."
"You say terrible things."
"Hehe...... say that, even Mr. Leme takes care of Senior Phoenix - Grr!?
"to, Mr. Nicolas, I'm already tired today, so let's break it up"
I know you're talking about your bet with Mr. Phillip, but ah, that's not like letting him hear it.
Concon, is knocked.
"Lord Leme. It's Philip. Will you still be there?"
"Roar."
At this time!?
"Excuse me....... eh. This, Lord Phoenix, is the first to come to your attention. I say Philip."
"Oh, that was a good fight."
"Thank you. But this..."
"Ah duh. This guy found out when we were training together."
As I said, Mr. Phillip looked difficult, but nodded small.
"That should be called [the fiery brave]? You may not deserve to say this to me."
……
The strange face of Phoenix.
No, wait, Mr. Phillip. Please don't do this here.
But he bowed his head.
"I'm sorry about the other day. I put my immaturity on the shelf and insulted your best friend, a senior ranked fourth in the world. Along with my apology, I will correct you."
……
…………
Then Mr. Philip explained the situation to Phoenix and also apologized to Phoenix.
"No, I don't mind. Because I certainly don't stand around thinking about how to survive in this industry. Even if they point to a lack of effort around it, they don't have the words to say it back. But... I see."
Phoenix smiled deliberately.
"Right, lemme. You got angry for me. Thank you, you're as sweet as ever."
"Uh-oh! Damn............! Don't do that! That kind of thing! It would be disgusting though!
My whole body has a fever for shame. My face doesn't get hot.
Instead of keeping his word, Mr. Phillip apologized to himself, which wasn't bad at all, but I was embarrassed anyway.
"I'm glad."
"Shut up! This... this... asshole!
"haha"
"Don't laugh!
My brothers and sisters looked at me and Phoenix's conversation strangely.
