Chapter 501.1
Festival of Humanoid Races (2)
I finally ended my explanation of games by saying, “–These are fun games to play, no doubt. But to be honest, these are games for humans. If they were to be played by the all Humanoid Races as a whole, the rules would need to be modified.”
“Well... Reyd, I couldn’t have imagined that there were that many games handed down by humans.”
“No, no, even I’m not familiar with them... Where are they played?” (Reyd)
“I don’t know either. But the source of my knowledge is our own Layla. She is someone from the Sheep-Horn race.” (Yuki)
The Elf Queen looked impressed as I said this in a deceptive manner.
“Oh! You also know someone from the Sheep-Horn race. Some of the elves who are called wise among the elves have learned their knowledge from the Sheep-Horn Village. I see... from there huh...” (Elf Queen)
“Hmm, is that a Demon Race?” (Reyd)
I answered Reyd’s question, “Yes, they are a race of scholars, a curious species. And the one at home is one of my wives. If you think you have people who have a good grasp in research, you should send them to their village. You will definitely get something out of it. They never refused anyone who came to visit them.”
Besides, it was just plain fun there.
Their museums and other facilities were really on the level of the modern world, and some things even seemed to be more advanced than in my previous world.
They were using their work as a tourist attraction, and they did a good job of showing it off.
I would love to go back and visit that place again.
“If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. I’m not a professional in this field myself, so I may have left something out in my explanation.”
I bowed my head to them before going back to my story.
“Also, as for the people who will be competing, I think it would be a good idea to have the Royal Guards of each country be the first to learn the rules. They are probably the most physically gifted and the smartest, and it would be easier for soldiers to tactically move in groups of a dozen or more.”
“Yes, that would be good. I also thought that if anyone was to be the first to compete, it would be soldiers.”
“I agree with you. But if it is going to be a big festival, it would be more exciting to have not one but several competitions on different days. I would like the festival to be held for at least a week in order to attract as many people as possible and get their attention.”
“That’s a good point. We want to make it as spectacular as possible. The Rogard Empire would be a good place to hold it. We’ll need your help, the Demon Lord.”
“Sure. Alright, we’re only in the planning stages, but it’s already starting to sound like fun. If we’re going to do this, we’ll have to split up and form teams from different countries, right?”
“Yes, that’s what will happen.”
“Well, I’m only a decoration emperor, but I’ll have my Rogard Empire team up and beat the rest of you even if you team up against me!”
The King and Queen grinned as I said this, and then laughed as well.
“Well, you said it, Demon Lord. As the representative of the elves, I will accept that challenge!”
“As King of Allysia Kingdom, I cannot be outdone. I will show the strength of our people to humans and non-humans alike.”
“Yes, let’s play!”
I never thought of myself as the emperor of a country...but in a game like this, it would be a different story.
I, the emperor, would like to train my team personally and make the name of my country known to the world!
