CH 48

I woke up to a slightly nostalgic familiar looking ceiling.

Ah, it hit me that I'm back at Daijel's inn seeing this ceiling.

Now then, time to wash my face and make breakfast. Today I'm gonna go with ham and eggs, miso soup and arorice.

As I was frying ham and eggs in the kitchen, Alma came by.

"Good morning... You look like you could use some more shut-eye, Alma."

"Morning... The moons bothered me so much, I couldn't get a wink of sleep..."

"Two full moons, the sign of Demon King's birth and Hero summoning was it... Hero aside, is Demon King that bad a news?"

"Well we only have records to go by but it's said that millions of people died before a Hero managed to defeat a Demon King."

"M-millions? ...The scale is way too big, it's hard to visualize..."

"But mom and dad once brought me to remnants of the destruction left in their wake. Stuff like a crater one kilometer in diameter, or ruins of a grand city where every building was abandoned."

"Uwaa... I can see why they're regarded as super dangerous."

"Told you, you took it too lightly."

Alma sat down at the table in the room next to the kitchen after saying that, looking slightly disgruntled.

...I mean I can't help it. I'm not from this world, getting terms like Demon Kings suddenly thrown around did nothing to me.

My imagination only extends to one being a last boss in RPGs at best. Like how they're offering half of the world. Who needs that.

Heck, isn't this Demon King more like an isekai terrorist, just on a massive scale? Or maybe a despot who wages wars on all countries without a care in the world.

...When I put that way, the situation does feel much more pressing. Maybe we should take shelter somewhere?

<<When a Demon King is born, a base under his rule also spawns on each continents. There is virtually no safe zone anywhere.>>

Ah, there's no escape huh. Dammit.
