Demon King Reincarnation Chapter 17

Riley had completely given up on explaining anything to me, saying “even if you kill me, I won’t be able to explain it. It’s too troublesome.” As she led me past my friends (provisional,) I heard them gossiping about the result of my actions just now.

“Something really exciting just happened.”

“There’s more fitting clothing for that girl.”

“Let’s divinate about the next type of hara.s.sment we should do to that girl.”

Those were the things I heard……

……Divination, you’re so popular. I’m so jealous. I should be the topic of conversation. But I’m not. What’s this about a fitting type of clothing?

What would be fitting for that b.u.mpkin?

The pure white dress that indeed seemed almost like a bridal dress, that she had just been wearing came to mind. Are flowery clothes the fitting kind? What would be fitting for a country b.u.mpkin?

 

Ha!

That’s it!

When I thought of it, I immediately visited all the merchants I had dealings with, and prepared clothes that would be fitting for that little girl. After I had it completed, I sent it anonymously to her. That little girl still has to level up more, as my rival. Like this, I’m even giving my enemy a gift! How magnanimous I am! While looking over my completed blueprint for the clothes I designed for her, I gulped down a gla.s.s of blood.

Clothes that would level up her skills – that is to say!

A black bikini!

After all, in order to show off those marvelous muscles, a bikini is the best! I used to be the previous Demon King. I feel so repressed right now. I really want demon servants that I can use! By the way, I was also an innovator in my previous life as the Demon King. My first life’s memories had taught me that “the best way to make precious muscles stand out is to complement it with a small colored piece of cloth.” Hehe. This way, the n.o.ble girls and Riley won’t have any complaints.

“Ojou-sama, please calm down.”

“……Riley, have you become able to erase your presence? You appeared so suddenly.”

“Hardly. As a mere maid, I would never be able to do something like that.”

“Mm. ……Did I let my guard down? It must be because the only strong creatures are dragons and demons here……”

“Ojou-sama, please calm down.”

It’s such a pain that I can no longer cause things to go extinct with a wave of my hand. While I’m getting used to this human body now, maybe fighting dragons and demons is no longer enough.

Mmm. As a villainess, I want a rival in addition to Hendra now.

So, that’s how it’s going to be.

 

Someone like the Hero.

 

Well, that’s impossible.

The Hero was a special case. With Heath’s current level, he’s still nowhere close.

“It’s been a while, maybe I should start up a war again.”

“Ojou-sama, please calm down.”

“It was a joke.”

If I cause a war, it might be able to a.s.suage my parched throat. However, I don’t want to risk threatening my way of life as a n.o.ble. Well? If someone intends to harm me? Are you ready to receive my wrath? I’ll definitely be? Crus.h.i.+ng you with full force?

“Ojou-sama, please calm down.”

“After Maru, are you a psychometrer as well?”

“What could that be?”

 

With that said.

I raided the royal palace’s bodyguard troops for the first time in a long time.

“Stop – Don’t come – Please don’t come – I beg you – Let me live!!”

“Instructor!? What’s with that girl!?”

Ohh. So the instructor’s cla.s.s knows about my strength. I wonder if it’s because I raided and systematically cut down all the n.o.bles’ personal bodyguards one by one that one time.

“Hehehe, I don’t understand difficult things, you know?”

“Uh, um, you are?”

“Rude b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I have no name to give to the likes of you. Disappear.”

With a stab to the forehead, I made the rude fellow disappear forever. I jumped out from the window, but waiting for me was the royal palace’s bodyguard troops. No problem.

“It, it can’t be! A blood-covered demon……”

“How unrefined.”

“Gahh!?”

This is too easy. Please be a little more durable.

“S, surround her-! We’ll deal with this somehow with our numbers!”

“Ho, good, nice. Come at me.”

With a great shout, I rushed at them. And, I immediately blew them away with a high roundhouse kick.

“How have you been training yourselves! You brats! With just that level, how are you supposed to defend the daughters of the n.o.bility, you’re not even at the level of the n.o.ble sons!”

“Unbelievable!”

It was true. When I was younger and raided the n.o.bles’ bodyguards, I put the n.o.bles’ sons through something much worse than the abuse they were already going through in our kingdom’s schools.

Since some n.o.ble girls admired me as a n.o.ble girl, there were those that came begging for me to personally teach them (but because it was troublesome I refused.) The n.o.bles in other countries probably can’t even imagine things over here.

“Knights! Knights, over here!”

“Even if you bring such weak things over here, they won’t even be an opponent!”

The knights belonging to the lower-ranked n.o.bility in this country are so weak. Weaker even than flies. They’re probably at the level of single-celled organisms. Pathetic.

“Hehehe, being able to play with me, be honored!”

“Ahhhhhhhh!”
