Devil two hundred and five

Crack, clap, clap...

I pursed my mouth, and silently drew a big X in my heart. I looked up at the sky behind the layers of leaves. There were layers of dark clouds, and it was about to... oh no, it was already raining.

"Francis?" Ignatz floated over from behind me. As an elf, he was at home in an environment like a forest.Braided Ignatz handed me a wide leaf to block the pattering rain.

"I miss Minato a little bit." I complained to Ignatz aggrievedly.

"Uh, this..."

"I haven't been away from Minato for so long since I was nine years old." In fact, this sentence is a lie. There were two times when I was separated from Minato for more than two months. However, Ignatz again I don't understand such a thing.

Ignatz showed a headache, but he had to comfort me softly: "Then you have to get well soon, and when your injury heals, we can use the teleportation circle to go back."

I tugged at the corners of my mouth, and tried to mobilize the magic element again, and immediately, a huge pain ran through my brain.I couldn't stand for a moment, and fell directly into the muddy rainwater.Startled, Ignatz looked at me with a horrible expression.

I wiped my face, and the wound made by the small stones healed in an instant.But that gloomy feeling lingered in my heart.

...I swear, when I go out, I will definitely turn all forests and swamps into dry land!

……

Speaking of me as a generation of demon kings, but I have fallen into this situation, it has to start from a week ago.At that time, Minato was still presiding over the Eucharist. The Pope and His Majesty the King sat on the viewing platform in turn, and I sat next to His Majesty the King.

His Majesty the King still maintained a gentle and courteous smile, but on the half of the arm protruding from the sleeve, there was a lavender mark pinched out by nails.

I raised my eyebrows slightly in astonishment.The king was a very shy and cowardly child when he was a child, and even the maids could bully him, telling him to be more "obedient" and not to cause "trouble" to the servants.Therefore, during that period of time, whenever His Majesty the King felt uncomfortable, he would pinch his arm with his nails, and half of the pinched arm was wounded.

Later, after my mother Helen returned to the palace, she found the wound on His Majesty's hand and mistakenly thought it was done by the maids, so she severely punished them and changed a group of people to serve her.

——That's right, my mother's name is also Helen, and Princess Helen's name is taken from my mother.

When my mother was punishing me, I stood with His Majesty the King, who was still a prince at that time, on the corridor covered with ivy. His Majesty the King looked at a beetle lying on the ivy, and suddenly asked me in a low voice: "Is this power?"

"What?" I didn't understand what His Majesty the King was referring to.

"...It's nothing." His Majesty the King smiled, and flicked the scarab away with his fingers.

From that day on, the priest healed the wound on His Majesty's arm, and His Majesty seemed to have given up those bad habits.Although his behavior was still somewhat autistic, under the guidance of the court teacher, he quickly transformed into the image of a king that everyone expected, compassionate, loving, gentle and friendly.

"Your Majesty, what happened to your arm?" I asked subconsciously.

"A few small things." The king rolled up his sleeves, looked at the crowd celebrating in the arena, with a somewhat lonely expression, "...Tell me, Francis, why Helen would rather run away than come and tell me."

Because she is afraid of you.

Of course, I wouldn't say such stupid words out of my mouth, so I could only nod my head seriously: "...Maybe it's because I read too many novels."

"I don't think so, Helen likes to shake S imprison and force love."

"...How do you know so clearly?"

"Without my signature, how could those pornographic books be printed by the official publishing house? They were cleaned up when pornography, gambling and drugs were swept away. By the way..." The king paused, and when he spoke again, he brought a faint smile Yi, "If you want those CP books, just let me say hello to the publisher, and you can get them for free."

a bolt from the blue!

I guess, the king must have appreciated my stunned expression for a while: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that I am poor and two thousand gold coins is really not a small amount."

"Of course it's to admire your expression now." His Majesty the King was obviously in a good mood.

Why am I surrounded by a large group of bad guys?

I think this is probably a question that even the God of Light cannot answer.

On the podium, the Pope had just finished his speech, and blessed all the nobles present with a magic spell with excellent sound and light effects.All the choirs sang the glory of the gods in unison, and countless petals and fragments of light fell down.

In the form of poetry, they reproduced the scene of the world created by God, in which Minato played the role of Atalon, the king of angels, with three pairs of white wings folded or opened, looking holy and inviolable.

I silently decided to steal the suit after the fact.

Anyway, the person who said "cosplay is good once in a while" must be Minato!

Only the first movement needs to be performed by Minato, and he will leave the stage as soon as the time is up.There was no focus for my attention in the middle of the field, and I couldn't help feeling a little sleepy until a hand tapped my shoulder.

Minato didn't know when he came to the viewing platform and stood behind me.He changed into regular clothes, but the makeup on his face hadn't come off in a hurry, and he drew eyeliner, which made him look somewhat enchanting.

Minato naturally sat down beside me: "I have a question..."

"Don't ask, I love you."

Minato stomped on my feet naturally and desperately: "...can you cast magic in public without being noticed by the power of darkness?"

"It should be fine." I searched through my memory, and finally found that the demon kings are all a bunch of arrogant guys, and almost no one has done anything incognito.However, how could I say no to what Minato asked me to do?

"Very good, if that prince dares to accept Helen's challenge later, you can use magic instead of Helen to kill him." Minato said softly with a look of pity for the world.

"Helen?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw a sea-blue curly-haired beauty, Shi Shiran, came out from behind Minato, looking bright and elegant.From the outside, it was Helen.

With a sweep of the Demon King's pupil, this Helen's identity could no longer be concealed.

"...Hey, use a phantom to fool people, be careful not to embarrass yourself at grandma's house." Phantoms are low-level monsters born from the shadows. They can transform into human forms to hunt for food, but they are weak in strength and have a very low IQ. It's an insignificant level.

"Nini is controlling from the back. Anyway, that prince doesn't know what Helen should be like in normal times. I hid the Holy Angel Sword in its body, which can block the breath of monsters, and you can also cast spells from a distance, so there is nothing wrong with it. "

I nodded—anyway, I would never object to Minato’s decision—that is, I always felt that there was something important that I had forgotten.

……

After the sacrament came the state ceremony, His Majesty the King sat on the throne, and I followed him, and envoys from all over the world presented gifts one after another.This is just a diplomatic etiquette. Although those gold, silver and jewelry are precious, they are actually of little practical use, and they are all famous works of art, so it is difficult to change hands.

...I still like my ground made from a single block of crystal.

At this time, the prince of the Kingdom of Melia, to which the Fire God Temple belongs, finally stood up at this moment. He raised his hand behind him to signal, and immediately four envoys carried a platform forward, placed it in the center of the grand ceremony platform, and opened it. Red cloth, revealing one of the bottles.

Prince Melier was polite, but he still couldn't completely conceal the arrogance in his tone: "This is the spring water of the Spring of Rejuvenation. There are ten drops in it, and each drop is a priceless treasure."

He didn't finish his sentence because there was no need. The Fountain of Blessing, the Fountain of Youth, and the Fountain of Rejuvenation are the three legendary springs in this world. The Fountain of Blessing has the power to make people's wishes come true. A person’s face is not old, but the Fountain of Rejuvenation can save the dying person back to the world—it’s even more miraculous than Minato’s Great Recovery Spell, which can only stimulate people’s vitality and thus have the ability of self-healing. People who die of natural old age are helpless, but the fountain of rejuvenation brings vitality back to the human body.From this point of view, what the so-and-so prince said is really true.

Although there is a living example of Nini around me, this is the first time I have seen the real spring water, and I couldn't help but open the pupil of the devil to observe it-it's surprising that the Temple of Fire actually invested such a large amount of capital.

The scorching eyes of everyone focused on the small bottle, and some people with poor self-cultivation had already revealed their blatant greed.

"The Kingdom of Melier congratulates the Bauhinia Kingdom for its immortality."

The prince of Mélière showed the expression of a townsman looking at a bumpkin, and I finally turned my attention to him. In all fairness, he does not look old from the outside.After all, he is the prince of a country, and he is usually pampered and well-maintained.It's just that the eyes are a little smaller, their shape is a little sharper, and they have a bit of acrid taste.

"Besides, I have an abrupt request... I heard about Princess Helen's unparalleled beauty when I was far away in Melier, and seeing her in person now makes me fall in love at first sight." His eyes locked on Helen's phantom, It seemed a bit sincere, "I hope that I can be united with the princess forever, and that the two countries will be better forever."

The nobles immediately showed a clear look—that is to say, how could such a precious gift be needed for simple diplomatic etiquette.

His Majesty's expression was calm. Only I knew that he was probably pinching his arm again. It would be very heartbreaking to reject such a treasure that may not be seen for hundreds of years: "I saw Melier Sincerity, but, Helen is my younger sister, we have a very good relationship..."

Hearing this, I couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "...Aren't you afraid of having nightmares at night if you tell such a lie?"

His Majesty the King stepped on me with no change on his face—it's fine for Minato to step on me, how can you step on me too?In a rage, I stepped back angrily: "...Well, because of this, I respect Helen's own opinion and hope that Helen can make her own decision."

"The king of hindsight." I complained.

His Majesty the King glanced at me meaningfully, and I hurriedly withdrew my feet, unexpectedly, he didn't step on me.

"Thank you very much, Your Highness, for your kindness." The phantom controlled by Nini is more graceful than that stinky girl like Helen, "It's just that when Helen was very young, she hoped to have a knight to protect me. That knight is handsome, And even stronger than Helen."

Minato winked at me, and I immediately released a Pyroblast Ball beside Helen.

……ah!Oops, the temperature is too high, the phantom can't bear it a little bit, and it has already started to fluctuate like water ripples. If this continues, the phantom will show its original shape.

I hastily threw the Pyroblast Ball at His Highness the Prince.

……etc!worse!That Prince Han is obviously just an ordinary person. If such a fireball goes down, he can collect his ashes directly.No way, time is running out.

boom--!The huge fireball knocked out countless flame stars, leaving two meters long black burn marks on the ground.A Vulcan priest holding a shield stopped in front of the prince.Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't stop him, because I finally used space magic to transfer this prince out at the very moment.

Standing about ten meters away from the explosion site, the prince clutched his chest in shock.He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to accuse Helen of killing people, but the shield priest stared at him, and the prince swallowed what he wanted to say, half resentment and half unwilling to answer: "...Princess Helen's demeanor , is truly unforgettable.”

Seeing that the prince finally retreated from the difficulties, a group of us all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I am also sincere to Her Highness, and I hope Her Highness will give me a chance." A voice sounded, and the crowd separated. Knight Percy walked over from behind the crowd, and knelt down in front of "Helen" with a firm expression.

...I finally remembered, I forgot something.
