Chapter 25

Chapter 25: The Demon King Once Again!

A grade-schooler stood before me once more.

Moreover, their numbers were increasing.

About ten minutes ago, while I was sleeping, Al suddenly descended from above.

Looking outside, it was still an hour when the sun hadn't risen, and they had "transferred" here.

Soon after, another grade-schooler shouted at me,

"You're Takuto, right? I've come to avenge Al! Let's fight!"

Why do I have to deal with grade-schoolers again...

For now, I asked Shiro and Kuro to keep an eye out so that no one approaches.

Because it would inconvenience the other villagers, I told them to stay quiet.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Nero~!"

"I'm the Second Pillar Demon King!"

"Hah~!"

This grade-schooler is the Demon King!

I heard they have a good relationship with Al, but just like Al, I shouldn't judge them solely based on appearances...

"Al, explain the situation!"

"...Well, you see!"

After losing to me in our match, the news was passed on to the demons by Granneel and also reached Nero's ears.

Nero immediately contacted Al and when Al straightforwardly told her about his defeat, Nero said that she would avenge her and prove that she is superior to Al. Al guided her to my location.

It's quite troublesome...

Anyway, I probably have no right to refuse.

"Can we have the same conditions as yesterday's match?"

"Of course! I will prove that I'm superior to Al!"

"If I lose, can the Unique Skill's benefits be revealed?"

"The conditions can remain the same! By the way, I also have eleven Unique Skills!"

...Well, she's the Demon Lord after all.

For now, let's consider the first round as practice.

Naturally, it was my victory.

Let's proceed to the real match.

"You can choose whether to go first or second."

Nero chose to go first, but it resulted in my victory.

Afterward, as expected, I won all eleven matches.

Nero, just like Al who lost before, is on her knees with both hands and head down.

They seem to be muttering something, but I can't hear it clearly.

The moment Nero lost, Al happily contacted someone.

...It's probably Granneel.

This news will spread quickly among the demons.

"What?!"

"Takuto is Al's master, right?"

That's right, Takuto is your master!

Huh?! Wait a minute! I never said such a thing!

Don't worry about it! It's something I decided!

...No, no, don't arbitrarily create a master-disciple relationship!

"I'm also going to be Takuto's disciple!"

"Huh?!"

Why did it turn out like this?

Just hearing the words "masters of the Demon Lords," it sounds like I'm the strongest.

"I'm the number one disciple, and Nero is the second!"

"Second again?!"

It seems Nero is not pleased with being the second disciple, or rather, being second in general.

"By the way, when it comes to being friends, I'm the first!"

"That's not fair! I'll also become friends!"

Al, you're saying unnecessary things!

Now Nero is also going to become my friend.

Among my friends, there are two Demon Lords...
