(Why is the demon king here?)
The Demon King has come to Rosenberg Mansion.
This is not something to make me laugh or be able to joke about as a very bad joke.
Not a man. A very dangerous monster was in the household that I will inherit in the future.
All the servants and employees working here are my future vassals.
Their lives are in my hands.
Even if I don't have a chance... I will protect them!
"Cid..."
I called my friend to tell him my plan.
"You take care of protecting everyone. I'll try to make sure this guy doesn't touch anyone."
"Razel, this guy has enormous magical power, you can't take him on alone or beat him."
"So what of it, I can't let him kill everyone here."
I gritted my teeth hard.
"I'll buy you time so you can-"
"What are you mongrels jabbering about so much?"
A loud hoarse voice called out to us.
The demon king stood before us.
He was grinning sinisterly.
"I told you mongrels didn't I? You smell good, after eliminating several smells that can become strong, I came for you."
(This guy came for us?)
(Damn it! I mustn't let him meet the girls, if he talks about smell, then they must smell very delicious).
His hands were inside his coat.
"Don't even think of doing anything. I said they smelled of potency, if you dare to make a fuss, I'll kill you all."
We began to sweat when he said he would kill them all.
"I smell that in this house there are around almost a hundred humans. Outside there are more, but just inside it would take me ten minutes to take care of them all."
(Can he kill us so easily?)
(But why now? Why did he appear when it's still the prologue of the game?)
"Is there something you want from us?" This guy was the hardest thing to defeat in the game. I must look for a method to avoid a massacre.
"In this place, no, to be exact it's in this land they call country."
He began to speak.
"There are strong people, I want them. I want to fight them."
"Fight you want?"
He showed us his sharp white teeth.
"I am someone who enjoys fighting others who are stronger than me. I kill those with power, you have that potential and you don't even smell with the potential to give me a fight, that's why I won't kill you."
(You say you want to fight strong people, but you also say you kill those who may be stronger than you. make up your mind!")
"S-Sure, we'll help you find strong people, but please don't do anything to us."
His eyes were identical to those of a predator.
"Alright, I'm sick of looking for them myself. Also..."
"Also?"
"I'm hungry, I want meat. Have a steak."
"S-Sure."
I offered him bacon that was on my plate.
He walked to the dining room and sat down to eat.
Cid ran straight to the kitchen to have the cook prepare meat for him.
"... We narrowly avoided a bullet."
I feel like my heart is going to skip a beat.
"Excuse me."
Someone was talking to the demon king, it was Cordelia.
"It's rude to eat with your hands, use the cutlery, don't you have any manners?"
Apparently he was in the room and heard it was a friend of ours, but that's not reason enough to talk to him.
I ran to stop this bastard from piercing her stomach, but --
"I see, sorry."
For some reason he apologized.
I fell to the ground and couldn't believe my ears.
"Why did the demon king apologize?"
My life with the demon king living in my household has just begun.
