The Demon King Took Off His Little Horns

Judging from the superficially peaceful and happy scene, no one could tell that Suberbian City was preparing for war.

When the dawn of the morning fell on the Demon King City above the Floating Flower Abyss again, the demons began to move.A bat-winged demon flew low over the streets of Suberbian City, delivering the daily milk orders to every household with precision.When it was delivered to a certain household, the male owner of that household had already got up and was standing by the window smoking, with his horns bent back.

"Good morning, Uncle Haven." The milkman greeted kindly, then he approached quietly and asked in a low voice.

"Have you heard the news of the expedition? I heard that this expedition..."

The male master flicked the cigarette ash, his face was calm and calm, but some of his backward corners showed his pride.

"His Majesty Ansair sent 40 troops." He said with certainty, as if he had already learned the inside information. Of course, this is not a secret, but the media has not reported it for the time being.The host heard the sound of opening windows from all around. Obviously, in the warlike Demon Realm, his good neighbors could not resist the temptation of war-related news and were eavesdropping, so he was even more proud.

"As for why I know..." He dragged his tone, "My son, didn't he not want to inherit the family business before and went to join His Majesty's army? This time he will also join the army as a small captain. Alas, the child is too old Now, let him make contributions.”

What a great version of The Devil's World of Versailles!

The milkman's face was full of envy.

"It would be such a great honor to join His Majesty's army, and perhaps meet His Majesty in person!"

What he said spoke the heartfelt voices of other demons, and the eavesdropping neighbors sighed enviously. The host suddenly felt that the horns on the top of his head were full of brilliance, and he lit another cigarette with a smile on his face.

"Not really, not really, that's His Majesty the Demon King."

***

His Majesty the Demon King is not likely to be pulling his hair.

This move has been going on for several days because of military spending.But no matter what, the hair that is plucked cannot be turned into military expenses, and it is useless to pluck it.

It's a good time to go out for a while, and the military crematorium.

Phoenix Fini stood on his sycamore wooden shelf, seeing Ansair so anxious, he couldn't bear it.

"Your Majesty, do you have to go to the expedition?" He tilted his head with a feather crown, "The Seventh Abyss is not His Majesty's territory, and even if something happens, it will not affect His Majesty. If you only care about the face of the joint expedition, then the number of people will be small." Is it all right?"

Ansair, who was squeezing the Chancellor of the Exchequer to try to get him to think of a way again, stopped. At that moment, his thoughts seemed to return to when he was an angel.

"It's not like that, Feeney."

The Chancellor of the Exchequer was put down, and his soft jelly-like pink body stood up softly, looking very bombastic.

"It's not because of face that the troops are sent out, but the matter of the Seventh Abyss must be resolved, otherwise it will affect the entire Demon Realm."

Ansair has seen the kind of things that appear in the Seventh Abyss now. When he was an angel, he stood in front of the tide of those things with a bow and arrow in his hand. What was reflected in his sunset-colored pupils was an unprecedented and unprecedented battle. disaster.With his strength, he almost didn't come back. After he escaped by chance, he desperately delivered documents to his superiors, telling the horror of those things to the angels around him, but——

No one listened to him.

What's ridiculous is that in the devil world, he has authority that he didn't have before.As soon as the matter of the Seventh Abyss came out, Ansair immediately recalled what he had seen in the past. He wondered if anyone would listen to him this time.

Levy, the demon king of the southern domain, has been doing bad things all year round. In desperation, he called Seros, who always opposed him in terms of policy. Ansair thought very well, even if, even if no one listened to him this time, he would Will fight against those things alone.

however……

【...Don't worry, speak slowly. 】

【I am listening. 】

That's why this joint expedition came about.

"Judging from the battle reports from the front line, the situation is not optimistic." Ansair withdrew his thoughts and said, "I don't know what those things are yet, but they are clearly hierarchical and have enough wisdom. The Demon King of the Three Domains At present, the advance army has been dispatched, look, after the news of the advance army came back, did everyone have no objection to sending troops?"

Even Levi, the demon king of the southern region who always likes to play badly, shut up and started raising military expenses. The demon kings are obviously aware of the seriousness of the situation.

Feeney understands, he understands, he loves His Majesty's hair very much.

"Bululu, can't you squeeze some more money out?" He said to the pink jelly-like object, "As the Chancellor of the Exchequer, now is the time for you to share your majesty's worries!"

The jelly-shaped Bululu heard the words, and the facial features composed of three black holes floating in the body showed a very restored Munch shouting expression.

"Sell me woo woo woo woo! Money is being used everywhere! Money is being used everywhere! My money woo woo woo woo!"

His whole slime seems to be dying.

"This year's taxes are not due to be paid, and the money recovered from public facilities investment is also limited. If His Majesty's new trade policy is passed, we can get a breathing room from the deposit of the first order..."

Ansair was angry at the thought.

"Theros rejected our proposal."

Bululu called out immediately.

"That's despicable! He must know that Suberbian City is now in need!"

Bululu, who loves money like his life, can't understand that someone would have trouble with money.His jelly-shaped body was a temporary entrance to the treasury of Suberbian City. Bululu looked inward, looking at the pitiful gold coins in the treasury for emergency needs, feeling sad for a moment.

too poor!So poor!

But even so, Bululu still bypassed the treasury entrance in his body, and took out another small treasury of his own.Ansair saw a soft translucent tentacle sticking out, holding a gold coin on the tentacle.

"Here, this is my private treasury." Bululu choked up sadly, "There are no more, I will give you the last gold coin, the others...others... Bululu will think of a way... ..."

The emerging Demon King City is burning money everywhere, and the post of Minister of Finance is difficult to do.The situation would only have been worse if it hadn't been for 300 years of sitting in this position by Bululu, who loves to make money and saves money like his life.At least every time Ansair squeezed in person, Bululu would always spit out some of the gold coins he had accumulated.

And this time, apparently, there really wasn't any.

Ansair looked down at the shiny gold coin, raised his hand, and rubbed Bululu's head.

Really rubbed, the jelly-like body of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was undulating under the hands of the Demon King.

"No, you don't need to use your private treasury, you have given too many times to me and Suberbian City." Ansair rubbed the Q-bomb jelly, just like every time in 300 years.

"I will find a way, you go to work."

He put the gold coin on top of the slime, and was immediately swallowed into the jelly's body with a "grunt".Bululu was only half a person tall, and he looked up at the Demon King who seemed to be re-reading official documents.

"But Your Majesty..."

"It's okay, I'll figure it out."

Bu Lulu burst into tears, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is so kind, yet so poor!I heard that the demon king Selos is so extravagant that he can use gold coins to pave the road. One day, Bululu will definitely go to the Western Regions and strip away the land on the opposite side!

After sending away his QQ-bombing Chancellor of the Exchequer, Ansair still had to face reality.He stared at the financial statement with a solemn expression, and he was sure that if there was no windfall, the military expenditure would not be able to pass the hurdle.

It's not that you can't borrow money from Seros, who has accumulated a lot of wealth for generations, but...

Ansair closed the report blankly.

He won't borrow money from that guy unless he has no other way out, it's too shameful!

There seemed to be a strange fluctuation of magic power outside the door, and Ansair raised his head sharply.The Demon King's office is soundproof, but he can detect the slightest flow of magic power.Sure enough, within a few seconds, the door of the office was knocked lightly, and the head maid said softly.

"Your Majesty, Lord Andre is back."

If it weren't for the demon king's reserve, Ansair might have stood up straight away.

prime minister!The prime minister he sent out to inspect!

During this trip, he also gave Andre an important task, which was about this military expenditure.Now that Andre came back a few days earlier, it can be seen that the goal has been achieved.

A tall and straight demon was introduced into the door. He had dark blue slightly curly half-length hair, mixed with emerald peacock feathers, and the gold-rimmed glasses did not compromise the sharpness of the abyss creature on him. The magic horns show pride.It's just that this arrogance melted away in front of Ansair, and he bowed slightly to Ansair with perfect etiquette.

"Your Majesty, I have returned from accepting bribes."

The prime minister smiled, which can be said to be very frank.Ansair looked at him with his chin in one hand, originally wanted to be serious and scare the old minister who dared to joke with him, but couldn't hold back, he still laughed.

"How much did you charge?"

"It's enough for this military expenditure, and there's still a little surplus." Andre spread his hands, his tone exaggerated, "Your Majesty, you don't know how enthusiastic those demon lords are, and they desperately gave me money, as if I With these funds, it is as if you will start an uprising and overthrow your rule in the next moment... After all, there are rumors outside that I am at odds with your majesty and ministers."

Ansair smiled.

"So you will?"

The great demon bowed deeply to Ansair, and the peacock feather slid down his shoulders.His voice is different from the calm and arrogant in front of outsiders, but it is full of rare emotion, which is almost religious.

"Never, Your Highness."

After speaking, he raised his eyes slightly again.

"Unfortunately, this method will not be used a few times."

Ansair also knew, after all, the great demon lords were not stupid.

"Before then, either I will uproot the lords, or I will open up new sources of income." Ansair said calmly, "There is still a long time in Suberbian City, we can slowly do what we should do things."

Andre lowered his eyes. He was looking at the dazzling black gold chain on the Demon King's wrist.Ink gold is mined from the lake of fire, which is the darkest place in the demon world, where the black gold stone that absorbs light is born. It is said that the demon king Ansair also walked out of the lake of fire and came to Suberby above the sea of ​​flowers. Ancheng.

The great demon sighed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we still have a long time to realize your and our ambition."

The ink stone that devours the light, devours the light... I am afraid this is exactly what His Majesty is hinting at.

He is sure that His Majesty's ambitions are not limited to the Demon Realm, but to higher places.

Ansair slowly raised a question mark, he was a little confused, grand wish?Does it refer to the construction of Suberbian City?

"Before that day comes, we will make all the preparations until we conquer the supreme heaven, and then..." Andre seemed to be able to conceive that picture, and his expression became a little fanatical.

"At that time, the glow of the supreme sky will be nothing more than an embellishment on your magic horn and crown. The devil will surrender to you, and the angel will bow to you. Ah, that scene..."

He narrowed his eyes, reveling in it.

And Ansair in front of him was already overwhelmed by question marks.

No.

wait.

The Supreme Heaven is his hometown!

Why did he attack his hometown? !

Anse: I am not!I don't!Don't talk nonsense! (cover mouth excitedly)
