Bride of the Great Demon King

"Guard it and never open it, can you do that?

The red-haired demon kneeling on the ground nodded reverently.

very good.The man in black turned and left. "

……

Dark night.

The fingers unconsciously grasping the bed sheet were a little pale due to excessive force, the red-haired devil let out a low and painful raving, sweat slid down the smooth forehead and cheeks, and fainted on the pillow.

"Mensa? Mensa, what's wrong with you?" Bastian, who was sitting in the corner, knelt down next to the red-haired devil almost instantly, grabbed his wrist and shook it suspiciously.His heartbeat was a little fast, his body temperature was slightly high, his magic power was stable and there was no abnormality, and his alertness and responsiveness had dropped significantly. He made a keen judgment.

"Woo..." The sleeping demon groaned but didn't wake up, his eyebrows furrowed together seemed to show that he was suffering great pain.

"Mensa? Wake up! Wake up!" The sharp-eared man patted the devil's cheek anxiously, and the cold sweat under his palm made him feel palpitations.

"Bass... Tian?" The red eyes rolled for a while before finding focus.The pain didn't seem to end because of the devil's waking up, he raised his hand to cover his forehead, and let out another low moan.

"Is there something wrong? What's wrong with you?" There was anxiety in the brown eyes.

After taking a few deep breaths to accumulate some strength, the red-haired demon weakly shook his head: "The sequelae of excessive mental energy consumption will recover in just one month."

"Although the mental strength will drop a lot later." He added with a wry smile, "but it's not fatal."

"How could this be? Nothing like this has ever happened before!"

"I have never tried to summon the "Letter of the Demon King" before. This cunning book deceived me, and the mental power required to summon it is much more than it tells me, if it is not because of Mensa I am afraid that I will be backlashed by spiritual power on the spot."

"Then what should we do now?"

"There is no specific medicine on me, so I have to wait for the aftereffects to pass by themselves. Can you help me to the bathroom? Hot water should make me feel better."

"Wait for me! Immediately!"

The sharp-eared man left a sentence and immediately dodged into the bathroom, turned on the hot water faucet to the maximum, and hurried back to the room.Despite his size, the red-haired demon has no trouble picking people up.Walking into the bathroom, he carefully removed the devil's pajamas. He tested the temperature of the water before putting him in the bathtub.

"How does it feel?" Bastian gently covered Mensa's forehead with one palm, and firmly grasped the edge of the bathtub with the other hand. Many small cracks appeared on the white porcelain surface soon.

The very rare bewildered look of the sharp-eared man made the devil shake in his heart, and suddenly he reached out and grabbed the opponent's collar.

"Still uncomfortable?"

No, not yet.You are not strong enough!

The red-haired demon repeatedly reminded himself that the summoned beast would not surrender to the summoner out of pity.Letting go of his fingers, he lowered his head to cover up the wavering in his eyes with a painful expression.

"Special medicine..." Bastian rolled his ears anxiously, "What is the special medicine you are talking about?"

"The royal jelly of the magic bee in Scarland Forest. It seems to be related to the strange connection between the magic bee. The royal jelly of the magic bee can almost heal all mental wounds. The trouble is that the magic bee only uses it when it needs to swarm Royal jelly is produced, and if it is not given voluntarily, the medicinal effect will be destroyed by a special mental shock."

"I'll get it."

The sharp-eared man's decision without hesitation warmed Mensa's heart.Patting the back of the other party's hand comfortingly, the red-haired devil shook his head weakly: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. The aftereffects will pass automatically in just one month."

"But after that, your mental strength will drop significantly, and you may return to the strength you had before becoming a high-ranking demon!"

"..." Mensa sighed, "I can do it all over again."

"Let you take the risk of being promoted again? No, I'll go get the medicine. Um... Do you want me to carry you back to bed?"

The red-haired demon lowered his eyes: "Even if I fall asleep, I will wake up from the pain. I'd better soak in hot water overnight!"

"Okay. Be careful yourself, don't leave the castle casually." Bastian hesitated for a moment, then leaned down and gently wrapped his arms around the red-haired demon's shoulders, "Wait for me to come back."

The dense water vapor in the bathroom quickly blurred the outline of the devil, and the soft sigh was drowned out by the sound of water flow...

"Does Master Mensa want to go for a walk?"

Sheen was wiping the metal handle of the gate with a clean cloth when the red-haired demon crept up to the castle gate.Although the servant's tone was relaxed and casual, Mensa deeply felt that he was being mocked.

"No. I'm leaving for a while."

"Ah! It seems that the duel between Lord Mensa and Master Bairiel is not over yet?"

"I'm not the kind of person who would run away without a fight!" The red-haired demon loudly defended his credibility, "Besides, don't you know best? With the summoner's gold contract, it is impossible for me to escape a duel. "

"Then Master Mensa went out to...?"

"I left a summoned beast behind, I just have to go back and get it."

Sean nodded thoughtfully: "If that's the case, tell Master Bairiel tomorrow morning and don't leave!"

"!"

"Please don't worry, it will take at least two days to go from here to Skalan Forest one way, Lord Bastian will not be back in a short time." The servant said selfishly.

"You eavesdropped on our conversation!"

"It's just a routine inspection. A qualified servant must show up when the guests need it." Sean said with a smile, "Does Master Mensa still go out for a walk?"

"Hmph!" The red-haired demon turned around angrily, "I suddenly feel sleepy. See you tomorrow morning!"

"Good night, Lord Mensa."

Although he was anxious to get on the road, Mensa had to sit at the dining table absent-mindedly.After finally waiting for the owner of the castle to finish eating, he immediately explained his itinerary impatiently.

"...That's it. I have to go back and get my summoned beast." The red-haired demon concluded.

The Great Demon King wiped Bailiel's fingers with a napkin and raised his eyebrows with a smile: "Sorry, I didn't hear clearly. Did you mean 'fetch' or 'capture'?"

The demon who had been seen through his mind blushed immediately, and then sighed resignedly: "Yes, you are right. I am indeed going to capture new summoned beasts. I think you can see that even though I have a superior The spiritual power of a demon, but I haven't had a summoned beast of a higher demon level so far. In order to win the duel, I must go to a place and capture a sufficiently powerful summoned beast."

"Oh? The world behind the 'door'?" Ignoring the astonished eyes of the demon opposite, the Great Demon King said slowly, "Don't be surprised, I know as much as you do. I've always been curious about where the Mensa clan lived. Where is the land. Or, where is the 'door'?"

Mensa pursed her lips: "Hmph! It's no secret that the Mensa family has always lived in the Sunset Wasteland. Because there are countless powerful monsters' lairs around, few people can actually reach there."

"A powerful monster?" The Great Demon King seemed quite interested.

"Yes. They used to be the gatekeepers of the Mensa clan, a group of loyal summoned beasts." The tone could not help but be proud, and the red-haired demon raised his chin.

"Are you so sure you can catch a suitable summoned beast behind the 'gate'?"

"Of course." Although he didn't know what to do, Mensa answered firmly.Since father can get Bastian there, so can he!

"Okay. I hope you will come back soon." No matter whether this little summoner succeeds or not, the big devil is very much looking forward to seeing the expressions of his former subordinates when they hear the news.

"I want to go too." Bailie who was on the side suddenly said.

Feeling the stagnant atmosphere for a moment, the blond boy bit his lower lip and said hesitantly: "If there is the strongest summoned beast there, then I want to try it too. I can protect myself with a magic barrier, I won't get hurt..." As if afraid that the big devil would reject his request, the boy twisted his body uneasily on the chair.

"A small adventure? My dear little bride, how could I have the heart to interrupt your interest?" The big devil kissed the boy's fingers, happily admiring the blush on the boy's face. "Please go with peace of mind! When you need me, I will be by your side immediately."

"Huh? I didn't say I would take him there! I don't have the time to take care of one..." The red eyes suddenly lit up, and he swallowed the second half of the sentence.

"In return for leading the way, I don't think you will refuse this small gift." A black gem the size of a palm was impressively placed on the open palm of the Great Demon King.

"Of course not! No, I mean, I don't care what happens to him when he gets in."

"You just need to take my little bride to see the world behind the 'door'." The black-haired devil promised with a smile.
