Alice didn’t know what kind of hatred Luna had for Little Death. All she knew was that Luna had done her best to stuff as much meat into Little Death as possible when feeding the undead girl. Oftentimes, she would stuff a big piece of meat into Little Death’s mouth before Little Death was even done swallowing.

Going by Little Death’s account, it felt as if Luna wasn’t treating Little Death as an undead but rather a meat grinder instead. If Little Death hadn’t desperately chewed and swallowed, her mouth might have burst apart from all the meat Luna had stuffed into it.

Regardless, after Little Death recovered her body, Alice brought the undead girl to her room. Although there were many rooms in Flaman’s mansion, the rooms weren’t designed as dormitories. Or, more specifically, they were only designed to cater to one or two occupants. So, Alice and Luna shared a room while Zauna and Lalu stayed in another room.

Meanwhile, inside her room, Alice could talk to Little Death without having to worry about revealing any problematic secrets to Zauna and Lalu. While she did plan on revealing these secrets to her two friends in the future, now wasn’t the time yet. If possible, she would prefer to keep her apprentice magician friend and young and innocent elven friend in the dark for the time being.

“You want to learn necromancy? Are you serious?” After following Alice back to her bedroom and hearing Alice’s wish to learn necromancy, Little Death couldn’t help but look at Alice with a confused gaze. “Necromancy was considered heretical even all the way back during my era, and necromancers were hated by all. Every Demon King I’ve followed would never dare reveal that I’m an undead to others. Are you sure you want to learn it?”

Necromancy involved the desecration of corpses. It was quite normal for it to be hated so much. However, Little Death obviously didn’t know about the changes that had taken place in the modern era.

Alchemy had already become a field strongly supported by the various nations in the modern era, and the study of corpses was no longer an unacceptable topic. After all, the development of alchemy had made the development of magic potions much more efficient and cheaper. This was a situation that benefited the country and the people. Because of the significant benefits alchemy had brought to society, many people were even willing to donate their corpses after death to assist in the development of alchemy.

Necromancers and necromancy had simply appeared in the wrong era. If they existed in the modern era, they might be able to further promote alchemists’ understanding of the human body.

“Of course, I’m not trying to learn everything there is to know about necromancy,” Alice said, chuckling. “I’m just trying to learn the taboos of necromancy. Necromancy used to exist at a considerable scale in the past, and it only started to decline after necromancers got hunted to extinction. So, there should have been a few necromantic taboos, right?”

Necromancers might have gone extinct already, but they used to operate at quite a large scale several thousand years ago. Moreover, necromancers specialized in magic, so there was no way they hadn’t developed any taboos.

“You want to learn necromantic taboos? While they do indeed exist, you should also know that learning taboos require the assistance of the corresponding magic books.” Looking at Alice, Little Death said helplessly, “A taboo magic book might not offer any special effects, but it is like a bridge. Trying to learn a taboo without a magic book is akin to walking on a tightrope; it’s very easy for complications to occur. Although I shouldn’t refuse the Demon King’s request, it is also my duty to ensure the Demon King’s safety. So, I’m afraid I cannot teach you necromantic taboos.”

“Ignore her. This girl will try to learn any taboo she comes across,” Andusia, who was sitting on a table in the room, said to Little Death, poking fun at Alice. “She even tried to learn a spirit taboo and altered someone’s memories without knowing anything about the fundamentals of spirit magic. Can you believe it? In the end, she made a mess of the other person’s memories, and that person now recognizes this girl as her mother.”

“Oh? There was such an incident?” Little Death exclaimed in amazement. Despite being an undead, Little Death was very rich in emotions. She seemed even more expressive than Luna, who constantly wore an indifferent look on her face. Then, Little Death turned to Alice and said, “That isn’t good. Although a Demon King should try to learn as many taboos as possible, it is counterintuitive if you learn taboos without learning the necessary fundamentals first. You won’t be able to maximize the effectiveness of the taboos you learn.”

“I know, I know. Can you two stop lecturing me like my mother?” Alice complained as she sat on her bed and scratched her golden hair. “So I can’t learn necromantic taboos without magic books… But necromantic magic books should have long disappeared. Unless they have been properly preserved, they would have already turned into dust after all these years.”

“By the way, are you really Andusia?” Little Death suddenly asked as she turned to Andusia. Although she had heard from Alice that Andusia’s soul inhabited the little person sitting on the table, the figurine’s appearance simply differed from Andusia’s original appearance by too much. So, she couldn’t help but try to seek further verification. “You don’t look anything like Andusia.”

“I already said it wasn’t my wish to look like this!” Andusia bellowed. She couldn’t help but recall Magical Girl Hikari at the mention of her appearance. Then, once she recalled the show, her mind would inadvertently remember the embarrassing poses the character Hikari made. “Even now, I’ll still get goosebumps and feel disgusted whenever I remember this matter.”

“Speaking of which, the last Demon King you followed should have been several hundred years ago, right, Little Death? In that case, you shouldn’t have watched Magical Girl Hikari yet, right?” A playful thought suddenly came to Alice’s mind when she saw Andusia’s agonized expression. Then, she brought her phone over to Little Death, connected to the human realm’s internet, and opened a website that hosted Magical Girl Hikari episodes. “You’ll know why Andusia is so mad once you finish watching this.”

“Stopppppppppppp!!!!!!!”

With the exception of Luna, most other Demon Kings would develop an Andusia’s scream echoed throughout the room. Then, she lunged at Alice’s phone without hesitation. After all was said and done, Little Death used to be her subordinate in the past. If Alice let Little Death watch Magical Girl Hikari, any dignity she had left would disappear.

“Lady Alice, Lady Andusia, and you, undead, can you please keep your voices down?” While Andusia was yelling out her lungs, Luna suddenly opened the bedroom door from outside and entered. “I can hear your voices even in the corridor. I don’t think you would wish for others to overhear your conversation, right?”

“”S-Sorry…””

For some inexplicable reason, Alice and Andusia subconsciously apologized when faced with Luna’s stern expression.

Little Death, on the other hand, did not apologize. Instead, her attention was focused on one particular part of Luna’s words:

“Why did it turn into ‘undead’ for me?! Even if you don’t call me Lady Little Death, can’t you call me by my name?!”

“That ‘name’ of yours isn’t even an actual name. It’s a nickname at best,” Luna retorted as she very naturally sat down beside Alice, occupying the seat next to Alice. Then, while staring at Little Death, she continued, “Also, I am Lady Alice’s name. No one else is qualified to order me.”

Despite her body being as cold as a lifeless corpse, Little Death involuntarily shuddered when subjected to Luna’s icy gaze. In the end, Little Death caved to the pressure and helplessly muttered, “I got it…”

Subsequently, when Little Death saw Luna starting to lecture Alice to stop bringing strange people back home, she walked over to Andusia and quietly asked, “…Has Lady Alice picked up many strange people in the past? Also, why does that maid feel even scarier than Lady Alice? If I didn’t know any better, I’d think she is the Demon King instead.”

“That… Actually, it’s not a problem even if you think of her as a Demon King,” Andusia said. She had naturally noticed the peculiarity about Luna long ago and guessed that Luna was also a Demon King. Although she didn’t know how Alice and Luna became the Demon King at the same time and even expelled the Demon King’s Power from their bodies, she didn’t bother putting too much thought into this matter. “As for the matter of bringing strange people home… She has brought home quite a few…”

After saying so, Andusia couldn’t help but wonder what kind of expression Little Death would make if she learned that Alice had even brought back the previous generation’s Hero.
