Chapter 1 – Betrayal
With the final battle at hand, the demon king sitting on the throne spoke to me.
“How is it! Archmage Kaldrash! If you betray humanity here and hold my hand, I’ll give you half of this world!”
“…What?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! Do you think this guy will fall for just that much candy coating!”
The one who made such a noise was the hero, a fool of justice.
The warrior and the sage standing next to me warned me to hurry up and fight, but I couldn’t help but be conflicted because the demon king’s proposal was extremely attractive.
No, isn’t it?
Half the world?
What is Banting?
Are you saying that a petit bourgeois like me can’t get anything even if I work hard for the rest of my life?
After being reincarnated in another world, the head that has become useless and high-performance begins to quickly calculate profit and loss.
But no matter how you think about it, this isn’t a game.
Become a demon king and receive half of the world
Vs
Hukkashi the Hero and Inherit the Kingdom’s Magic Tower
I made up my mind at the end of the long run.
“Bind.”
As soon as he murmured his first words, a ring of light appeared on the limbs of his comrades, whom he had shared the joys and sorrows of for about a year while walking to the castle, and restrained them.
“Hey! Crazy bastard!”
“How could you betray us!”
“I believed in Kaldrash-nim!”
I glanced over the faces of my former co-workers and shrugged.
“Uh-huh. Be careful what you say. Who is Kaldrash? From now on, I am Patrasche, the limb of the demon king Nero.”
Kaldrash died on this expedition.
For a comfortable old age, he could throw away his previous status as much as he could.
I approached Nero, the Demon King, rubbing my hands together like a cripple.
Demon King Nero, who was watching all this live right in front of his eyes, blinked his eyes as if he was absurd, but belatedly realized the reality and started laughing madly.
“Huh, haha! As expected, I’m a burden! To destroy a party of warriors with only coaxing words! It’s good-looking! Hero Artorius!”
I cautiously asked Nero, the demon king.
“Um… Maou-nim? Are the conditions you just called real?”
“Of course! The great mage Kaldrash, who was in charge of the firepower of the warrior party, offered to become my limbs, but how can I say that it’s a waste!”
“Then, please sign your handwriting at the bottom of this scroll. I’m a little nervous about verbal contracts.”
As I said that, I held out the Gears Scroll I had taken out of my chest, and Nero’s expression hardened as he laughed delightedly.
“This, this?”
“Yes. As long as you sign, the person the demon king wants will be recruited into the military.”
I smiled as I imagined the rosy life that would unfold in the future, and the demon king carefully read the penalty for breaking the contract written on the Gears Scroll and asked with a timid expression.
“Everything, thinking about it again, I think it was too much to say that I would give half of the world, but why don’t we start negotiating our salary again?”
“Couldn’t the great ruler of the demons speak two words with one mouth?”
“Turn it off…”
When I said that and pushed the scroll in front of my nose once more, the demon king let out a pained sound, perhaps because of his pride, but then boldly left his signature on the signature line.
“It’s good! It’s a joke! When the world conquest is over, I’ll cut it in half and give it to you!”
“As expected, Maou-nim! You’re exciting!”
Since he will be the boss at work in the future, I looked at my former co-workers and said regretfully, having sucked their butt cheeks with lip service.
“In that sense, I’m sorry. Warrior.”
“Ka, Kaldrash! How could you do this to me!”
“Well, I should have misrepresented it a little bit. Aside from the warriors and the wise men, what if you touch even a priest who has sworn an oath of chastity? Did you think I wouldn’t notice?”
The inappropriate relationship between the hero and the female party members was no different from a fantasy cliché, but as the only man in the party, he was a bit spoiled.
Every time I stopped by the village, I had to go to Changgwan to relieve my accumulated sexual desire, but the hero picked out fresh party members and tasted them whenever he felt like it.
What kind of Baskin Robbins is the party?
“Anyway, now that it’s like that, take care of yourself in the dungeon of the castle. I’ll visit you from time to time.”
When I said that and turned around mercilessly, the hero shouted his name into the back of my head with a face red with rage.
“Kaldrashuuuuu!!!!”
Stop-
I approached Maou-sama, but I slightly turned my head and said.
“Oh, it’s Patrasche.”
Didn’t our hero read fairy tales when he was young?
