Can't We Just be Happy? (7)

This is because that “constant magic power” was something that could only be done by becoming one of the high-ranking demons in the Demon Realm, like Raynon and Pierre. So, there were only a handful of demons who could open the door. In addition, even high-ranking demons were given a fatal penalty in which, once the door was opened, they had to live in the same form as a weakened human until their magical power was restored.

To put the penalty a little more simply, their magic power runs out or becomes discharged. Moreover, the stupid demons who open the door to hand over the souls of mere human beings of no great value, even to the Demon Realm, have not been recorded in any history books.

“… No way, the Demon King?”

Raynon stroked his chin.

“But why?”

He shrugged his shoulders, but didn't answer.

“Anyway, there must be something out there in the countryside.”

“First, let's find the traces of the Demon King.”

Raynon rolled up his sleeves, reminding himself of his original purpose.

Although Raynon and Pierre arrived at the bottom of the mountain, the terrain was higher than the houses in the distance. Looking down the hill with far better eyesight than humans, they spotted a house that seemed to have one or two more rooms out of all the dreadful houses.

“First, let's go over there.”

Chop! Riip.

“Let's go, Pierre.”

Chop! Riip.

“Shall we go?”

“… Where?”

“To find the Demon King!”

Pierre quietly blinked his eyes. Long eyelashes fluttered like a fan. Then he reached out his hand and pointed with his index finger.

“I found him.”

Chop! Riip.

The only beautiful black hair that exists in the world was the symbol of the Demon King.

Raynon hated his own silver hair, which looked only fragile, while he had always longed for the Demon King's black hair. If only he could touch that noble hair just once… This is the thought he had while standing behind the Demon King and looking up at his head.

And in front of him, the black hair he had dreamed of was fluttering. It was a distance that was barely visible with human eyesight, but to Raynon, it seemed as clear as if it was right in front of him.

“Oh my God.”

He staggered as if he was about to faint, then spread his dark red wings behind his back. He floated up into the air without hearing Pierre's murmuring to come with him, and in an instant he moved to the top of the Demon King's head.

“He, he was naked?”

It was strange to see him with his shirt off and cutting down trees with human tools.

As Raynon immediately folded his wings and stood in front of the Demon King, Pierre immediately followed. His presence was strong enough to scatter weeds by the flap of his wings, but the Demon King focused only on the firewood and did not even look at Pierre and Raynon.

“De, Demon King!”

“Pierrebati Euel Taint, greets the Demon Lord.”

As Pierre knelt down on one of his knees and politely bowed, Raynon, who was confused, fell to his knees.

Chop! Riip.

However, the Demon King was still silent. Raynon and Pierre, who had their heads bowed, glanced at each other.

… what?

After holding their legs till numb, Raynon bravely brushed his knees and stood up crookedly. Whatever the Demon King is doing, it is a human chore.

'The, the Demon King himself is doing such a trivial thing.'

It was a situation that did not make sense at all in common sense, but the Demon King was working, and his subordinate could not stand still.

“I'll do it!”

The Demon King didn't allow it, but he grabbed the ax that the Demon King was holding. At this moment, the red eyes met.

“Gaaspp!”

He couldn't move his body as if it was a stone. A cold sweat broke out in the strong murderous energy. His head gives an order to release the ax he is holding at once, but his body is unable to move a single finger.

It was the same for Pierre behind him who was receiving this overwhelming murderous energy. In this state right now, even if he was attacked directly from the front, he will not be able to avoid it and will fall. From their point of view, they couldn't roll an eye until the Demon King retrieved his energy.

“Kuhk.”

Pierre's upper body collapsed, as his body gradually couldn't stand it. The pain that seemed to regurgitate slowly began to rise from within.

“Hey, thieves—!”

It was then. A female human voice resounded from afar, and it was getting closer and closer.

“Huh! Ha… ha…….”

The murderous energy was taken away like nothing. The tightness that had been tightened suddenly loosened, and the blocked breath gushed out.

“Hey, you're not going away?!”

Boom.

Something swung in front of Raynon's eyes. It must have been a blow with all of her strength, but it seemed to Raynon that a snail was crawling slowly. By gently pulling his back, he avoided the attack of the human woman, Erina.

Erina was gardening in the garden, and when she saw this unusual situation, she ran with all her power, she couldn't even wipe the sweat from her forehead.

It was very funny to see her holding a shovel, which poses no threat to Raynon and Pierre. How pitiful to see her reaching out her other hand that does not hold a shovel to hide the Demon King behind her.

“Robbing in broad daylight, where are you from?!”

“Robbery?”

It wasn't funny. Who is robbing what? There are no things they wanted, and does she think there will ever come a day when 'robbing' from the Demon King will come true?

“You want to pretend you don't know? I've seen you hold onto Merson's ax.”

“… Merson?”

The Demon King looked down at Erina and made a strange expression, but neither affirmed nor denied it.
