A middle school cartoonist

"You want to stay and help... but that's absolutely not possible, Ding Ding Ji-san!"

In response to Uncle Ding Ding's good intention to stay as a [witness], Takahashi Makoto rarely turned on the [crazy chuunibana] mode and said something that made people feel incomprehensible. Instead, he rejected it in a very serious tone!

"But as your assistant, Cheng, I want to help you complete the last comic of your career..." Although he was not used to the serious tone of a certain chuunibana cartoonist, the unwillingness caused by being rejected made Uncle Ding Ding ignore this abnormality! "I've already told Mr. Nizuma Eiji that it's okay to go a little later..."

"Hey, Ding Dingji-san, I remember I told you..." Raising his hand to stop Uncle Ding Ding who was about to continue speaking, Makoto Takahashi pulled his white coat and looked at the somewhat excited assistant in front of him calmly, "My identity is the cartoonist Hououin Kyouma on the surface, but another identity... Uncle Ding Ding, you should still remember it!?"

"The crazy... Demon King!?" Although it was quite embarrassing to say such words, looking at Makoto Takahashi's current appearance, Uncle Ding Ding suddenly felt that it seemed that he could only say this to continue the conversation! "But this identity... isn't it the character you set for yourself, Cheng?"

"Let's not talk about the character setting for now..." A certain middle school cartoonist was not deliberately changing the subject, but just asked Uncle Ding Ding a question that he had already prepared! "Although the nature is slightly different, Ding Ding Ji-san, since he is the Demon King... in a sense, he can also be considered a [King], right?"

"Yes, yes, I admit that the Demon King can also be considered an alternative King..." The only thing Uncle Ding Ding can do at this moment is to obey a certain Chuuni cartoonist... After all, when you need help, even if you repeat [calling a deer a horse], it is natural to be forgiven, right! ?

"Then Ding Ding Ji-san, I will ask you a question..."

"What, what? Cheng, what do you want to ask?" Seeing a flash of enthusiasm in the eyes of a certain Chuuni cartoonist, Uncle Ding Ding took a few steps back without leaving a trace...

"Is the King... aloof?"

"..."

It appeared! The magic skill of a certain Chuuni cartoonist [who can talk until there is nothing to talk about] appeared!

To be honest, Uncle Ding Ding really finds the question raised by a certain Chuuni cartoonist difficult to deal with!

Is the King aloof?

This is the question that the Conqueror King once asked at the King's Feast in the comic "Fate"!

As a king, you must have stronger desires than anyone else, be more unrestrained than anyone else, and be more irritable than anyone else.

The king should be a human being who contains both purity and turbidity, and is more real than anyone else.

Only in this way can the ministers be convinced by the king, and the people will have such aspirations as "If I were the king" in their hearts!

Therefore, the so-called king...

must live more realistically than anyone else, and should be admired and worshipped by everyone!

The one who gathers the beliefs of all the heroes and starts an expedition with them as the goal is the king...

Because the king's wishes are also the wishes of all the subjects!

So... the king is not arrogant!

Since he came as a servant until he was defeated by the King of Heroes, the King of Conquerors has been practicing the will of the king from beginning to end, carrying the pride of being a king... In just a few days of the Holy Grail War, the King of Conquerors used his own words and deeds to prove that the king is not arrogant!

But look at another king... the King of Heroes, who is called the oldest king!

From the moment he appeared, he always maintained a high and mighty attitude, and looked down upon all the good and evil in the world, as if there was nothing in the world that could catch the eye of the Hero King!

Such a character setting, when the comics were first serialized, would make many readers feel that the Hero King had an excessive amount of self-awareness, and even felt disgusted... But as the comics were gradually serialized, the Hero King's actions in the Holy Grail War changed many readers' views of him!

Especially in the serialization that was completed not long ago, the part of the "Hero King's Solo Dance" in the unfolding plot of the God directly reversed the readers' impression of him!

Facing the black mud called "The Evil of This World" that flowed out of the Holy Grail, which contained darkness and negative emotions, the Hero King did not lose his mind like other Heroic Spirits after being eroded...

"... Who admits it? Who allows it? Who will bear the sin?"

Facing the heavy bomb coming from the darkness, the answer to it was indeed a loud laugh!

"Stupid question! There's no need to ask!"

"The king admits it!"

"The king allows it!!"

"The king carries the whole world!!!"

Perhaps...

It is precisely because of the loneliness of the soul that the hero king is not eroded by the [evil of this world] and can break free from the cursed black mud!

No, it's better to say...

How can the hero king's lonely soul be succumbed to the mere despair, the mere curse, and the mere dark and negative [evil of this world]!

...

"Hey, Ding Ding Ji Sanyo, tell me your answer now..." As if he didn't have the patience to wait for Uncle Ding Ding to find the answer from his memories, a middle school cartoonist walked slowly step by step to the assistant uncle who was still immersed in his memories, and asked word by word, "Is the king... lonely?"

I want to say something, but I can't say anything!

This is not because Uncle Ding Ding suddenly suffered from the real [aphasia], but at this moment, Uncle Ding Ding, as an assistant, felt an inexplicable pressure from a certain middle school cartoonist. The whole room... no, it should be said that the depressing atmosphere of the whole space made Uncle Ding Ding unable to speak at all!

Is this... the legendary [momentum]?

Although he used to listen to a certain middle school cartoonist talking all day long, Uncle Ding Ding always believed that the so-called [momentum] and other ethereal existences were just unrealistic delusions of a certain middle school cartoonist, and it was impossible to exist in reality!

However, at this moment, Uncle Ding Ding believed it...

The ethereal thing called [momentum] may really exist!

After all... nothing is more convincing than personal experience!

"Tsk! Just this level of aura is released... Has your mind been corroded?" Looking at Uncle Ding Ding who was in a daze, Takahashi Makoto spat with some dissatisfaction, then reached out and patted the uncle on the shoulder of the assistant, "Hey, hey, hey, Ding Ding Ji-san, the official fight hasn't started yet... You will die in this state in the future!"

"What, what?" The physical contact finally brought Uncle Ding Ding back to his senses... The uncle on the assistant's side looked at a certain middle school manga artist with some fear, took a deep breath, and asked with a somewhat stiff expression, "You will die... Ah Cheng, this creepy statement is too exaggerated, isn't it?"

"No, it's not an exaggeration at all, Ding Ding Ji-san!" As if thinking of something, Takahashi Makoto did not continue to use this topic to stimulate Uncle Ding Ding, but returned to the topic of refusing Uncle Ding Ding to stay and assist him in the first place! "Speaking of which, Ding Ding, you should know now why I refused to let you stay, right?"

"Because even if he is the Demon King..." Uncle Ding Ding paused for an inexplicable moment before saying with difficulty, "... he is also aloof!"

"What? Ding Ding Ji-san, you know it very well, don't you?"
