3 Human and Pest

 The next day. I sat down on the throne as usual, and I regretted what happened yesterday. It is ridiculous to tink that I annihilate 50,000 people in an instant.

 Well, it may be correct from a king's point of view , but ... No matter how much power comes with bieng the king, the contents remain human, and it makes me hurt.

"Uto-sama, can I ask a question?"

 As always, Henry, who has been kneeling in front of me, raised her face.

"what?"

" Is Uto-sama intending to destroy humanity?"

 End here I was expecting a question like "When are you going to cut your hair?" I have no intention of destroying anything at all times! I have to say this once.

"... Henri. You are mistaken."

"Oh, I 'm sorry. It 's not humans but pests."

 It's not that!!

"Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow or will it be destroyed today?"

 I don't want to destroy humans.

 By the way, in this world "Lalator", 90% of the land is inhabited by humans and 10% is land in which the demons lives. In this way, the demons may seem to have a narrow piece of land, but the number of individuals is much less because the demon population is much smaller then the humans.

 However, there are still many demons who are not convinced of this. Like this Henry.

"Do you hate humans that much?"

"Naturally, the pests are waste a lot of the world's resources and should be destroyed immediately."

 Well, I thought about trying to convince her, but that is absolutely impossible. What should I say?

"... Henri, don't go so far. If you have the power to destroy all humans, at any time.

You will stop caring as much."

"I see, thank you. Uto-sama."

 Okay, I was able to procrastinate for the time being. But It 's not a fundamental solution.

"By the way, Henri. How about stopping calling humans a pest?"

"... Why"

 Tilting her head with a face of confusion. The reason they call human beings pests is because they are hard to get rid of. However, I can't say "I want to stop calling it a pest because I was originally human" ...

"Did you not see the work of yesterday? You're uncomfortable even handling human beings."

"Huh ...! I'm sorry!"

"So don't call humans any more pests. Pests are annoying."

 This is not fine. On the contrary, there is a feeling that this has lowered the human status, but I do not mind.

"I'm smart. Now I'll call humans diarrhea."

 It got worse!

"... Henri.Your a girl, so don't say such dirty words. ok?"

"!! Yu, you treat me as the opposite sex ??"

"Eh? That's right ..."

Henri looked joyful and trembling, At my answer.

"This Henry has never felt so much joy! I will dedicate this body to Uto-sama now!"

 Suddenly what happened to this child !?

"What are you doing? Henri! Be calm!"

"Huh !? Sorry, I didn't realize it was still evening ..."

 No, it's not a time zone issue.

"It would be no good to say that a pretty girl would devote her body so easily. Be careful of words a little."

"Pre.. pretty ... No ...!?"

 Henri collapsed with her eyes looking like heart and blowing bubbles. Apparently, I lost my mind.

"spell[All-purpose Universal healing]! "

 I activated one of my spells against Henri. [Universal healing] is a spell that instantly cures abnormal physical conditions such as injury and illness. Probably effective for fainting.

 MP 999999999/999999959

 I checked my status screen. Apparently [Universal Spell] seems to consume 40 MP. Surely, I consumed about 10 times more then the [disaster rays] I used yesterday ... If there is a lot of MP, it's almost as good as not consuming it.

"Huh! Wow, I am ...?"

 A few seconds after activating the spell, Henri, who was revived from stun, hurried and woke up.

"You lost your mind and recovered with the healing spells."

"Well, was that so !? Not only did I look unsightly in front of Uto-sama, but it would also be troublesome for Uto-sama ... !!''

"No need to do that!"

 I said with some distraction. It 's only four days since I reincarnated, but I do n't know how many times Henri has tried to "self-harm".

 I heard a knock on the hall door twice. When I said "put", three female demons in maids came in and kneeled.

"Uto-sama, Henri-sama. The meal was ready in the cafeteria.''

 Oh, is it time for dinner already?

"Thank you for your report.''

 The demons bowed and left the hall. I haven't exhausted what I want to say, "Why are you wearing a maid uniform?"

"Uto-sama. As I mentioned earlier, if you have a meal, you can bring food to the hall even if you don't go to the cafeteria."

 On the way to the canteen, Henry said.

"Don't you think it would be fun to eat with the demons you trust?"

"... there is an necessaty for that"

 It 's because there 's a lot of things like eating alone in a large place like a high school gymnasium. If so, even if there are only demons, it is better to eat in a large number of times.

"Uto-sama!"

"The overlord has arrived!"

 When I opened the cafeteria door, the demons who were there looked at me all at once and stood up from their seats to kneel.

"Good! Everyone, continue eating!"

 My shout to resonate throughout the cafeteria. The voice does not pass well because the figure is big. But you don't have to be kneeling every time I see my face. On the other hand, you might be worried.

"Uto-sama. There are seats over there."

 One of the maid devils just came to me and showed his direction with her left hand. Beyond that, there is only one chair with a very luxurious decoration. That is the chair for the King. I sat down on that chair, thinking that it would be nice to have a normal chair.

 There is already food on the table. While other devils are eating something that makes me feel nauseous, such as purple muddy soup and spaghetti with some eyeballs, my dish is-ordinary omelet rice. This is what I asked for in advance.
