Adelaide tried to contain her laughter and turned her gaze towards the video.
In the video, a succubus character with a pretty appearance appeared. She had black hair that reached her waist and softly curved eyes with pink pupils. It was obvious that she was modeled after her.
“Wow, so cute.”
“It’s rubbish. It doesn’t capture every bit of Master’s beauty.”
The reactions were sharply divided. Although it was pretty in Adelaide’s eyes, Lisianthus criticized the character for its lack of detail, even clicking his tongue. She then continued, ignoring him.
“But why is it a sword?”
Adelaide blinked, puzzled. The succubus on the screen was holding a sword, not a whip.
The long sword’s form was as black as Shavarma’s demonic sword. However, compared to his, the edge was sharper and smoother overall. The hilt was adorned with black feathers and water drop shaped jewels, creating a luxurious and elegant feeling. Even though she was only seeing it in video and was not the real thing, she could already tell it was beautiful.
However, no matter how much she liked the design, she wasn’t pleased with it. She had asked for a whip, but a sword came out instead. She had trusted the Dwarves but now she was embarrassed for meekly handing over the whip.
“The last time you fought Shavarma, we saw that the master was very good with the sword!”
“So you changed the whip into a sword……?”
“Oh, no way! Just watch the video!”
Phew. Adelaide sighed in relief and focused on the screen again.
When the pink-bearded dwarf pressed a button, a green slime jumped out from the edge of the screen. At the same time, the succubus character swung her sword towards the slime, which was still far away.
Chwareureuk.
A burst of red light came from the sword, and soon the sword grew longer and turned into a whip. A whip full of sharp thorns quickly wrapped around the slime. Pujik! The slime’s body exploded with a light sound.
“Wow!”
Adelaide exclaimed at the unexpected twist. With a proud smile, the Dwarves added.
“You can use it like a normal sword, but you can also use it as a whip when dealing with enemies from a distance. You can change the length according to your will.”
“Is that possible? That’s awesome!”
“It’s still too early to be surprised. We can do much more than this with our skills. Master, I heard you have the power of wishes?”
Adelaide tried to nod her head casually, but gently turned her head to look into Lisianthus’ eyes. Her power to wish was kind of a secret. Was it fine to tell the Dwarves who used to belong to Sol Dungeon not so long ago?
‘Of course, they’re mine now, but…….’
Still, it was too early to completely trust them. Adelaide opened and closed her lips hesitantly. In the past, she would have revealed everything without thinking, but after experiencing the betrayal of her demon subordinates, she has become more cautious now.
But Lisianthus nodded his head towards her. He meant that it was okay to tell them. It was hard to believe that he, who was usually the most suspicious of everyone, was so willing to let it out. Adelaide briefly reflected, thinking that she might have been too cold-hearted.
“Hold on to your worries! I have no intention of going around talking about it.”
“Yes, the manager made such a horrifying threat, how can we go around with loose lips? We know we’ll only waste our lives!”
Oh, you’ve already threatened them. Seeing that they even mentioned their lives, he seemed to have done it very well.
‘Who’s cold-hearted again? Compared to Lisian, I still have a long way to go.’
Adelaide looked up at Lisianthus with a dismayed expression. Like always, Lisianthus simply smiled in a shameless manner.
“Anyway, we did a lot of research on our own. It is said that the power of wishes is so uncommon that it is rare for more than one person to manifest it in one era, hence it is called ‘The King’s Power’. In fact, the only demon who has manifested the power of wishes is the Demon King.”
The King’s Power. She had never heard of the term before. Adelaide smiled triumphantly, proud that she had such a great ability.
“However, it is as difficult to handle as it is rare. From what I heard from the manager, the master seems to be able to manifest it only if you express your wish earnestly. If the conditions are that strict, it will be difficult to quickly use in an emergency.”
“Yes, it’s actually a little hard.”
Thanks to Lisianthus’ training, she had gotten used to it a lot, but it was still not easy. In particular, as the Dwarf just said, the more urgent the situation, the more difficult it was.
In a situation where every minute was urgent, she couldn’t keep thinking of a wish for long. Moreover, if she loses her concentration even a little bit due to impatience, the power would be canceled. This condition was even more difficult because Adelaide was not usually very good at concentrating.
When they were fighting the Sol Dungeon, she was able to relax because she knew the power of Shavarma. However, Uriel was not an easy opponent like Shavarma. It was clear that the battle against Los Halde would not be as simple as it was then.
“That’s why I’m making this. Get rid of subpar and ordinary weapons! This weapon is now more closely designed for the master! Now is the time to get it right!”
“We designed it with a rare dragon’s tendons, therefore the weapon was made to not malfunction when Helheim’s enormous power explodes!”
The Dwarves loudly laid out the strengths of the weapon as if they were acting in a play. Perhaps they had even thought of the lines in advance as the weapon in the video would zoom in, perfectly timed as they spoke, with matching light effects.
And Adelaide, who was dying from the effects, had a face full of excitement and tightly clasped her hands together.
“It’s called, ‘The Demon Realm Ruler’—!”
Oh my word. Even the name perfectly matches her taste.
According to their description, the new weapon seemed to be able to quickly manifest the power of her wishes without much concentration. It was truly a weapon made for Adelaide.
Gulp. Adelaide wanted it so badly that she swallowed the rest of her saliva.
“Well, then, I guess we’ll have to get the dragon’s tendon. Is it possible?”
“Don’t worry, Master. I have something.”
Lisianthus smiled softly and patted her shoulder.
It’s been hundreds of years since a dragon last appeared in the Demon Realm, so how did you get it again? She was very curious, but Adelaide decided not to ask.
“Can we use that name like that? If the Demon King’s side finds out…….”
‘Demon Realm Ruler’. It was a cool name, but it was too big a name for Adelaide to embrace. If Abaddon finds out, he might try to punish Greenville for insolence.
“Master! How are you going to get through this harsh world with such a weak attitude?”
“Don’t be scared! This wonderful whip will be yours, and even if the jealous Demon King picks a fight with you, just go right ahead!”
The Dwarves very comfortably argued like it was none of their business. After saying this, it was clear that if she really had to fight the Demon King, they would immediately join the Demon King’s side. Just like they did after the war with Sol Dungeon.
“You don’t have to worry about that. Unless you run around shouting the weapon’s name……. You weren’t planning on doing that, were you?”
“……Hey! Nonsense. Who fights shouting weapon names? I’m not some demon crazy about showing off.”
Adelaide denied it, waving her hands. However, she did not make eye contact with Lisianthus. It was because she thought it would be cool to say lines like ‘Come out, Demon Realm Ruler!’ before a battle actually starts. A true crazy show off demon she was indeed.
As Lisianthus narrowed his eyes, Adelaide quickly turned her back.
“Alright, then make it like that! With that weapon, can I really use my powers more comfortably?”
“Of course! We Dwarves are true to our words. Our race itself doesn’t know how to tell a lie!”
“Wow, I see.”
“I didn’t know that Dwarves had such racial characteristics.” Her eyes twinkled in wonder.
And Lisianthus looked at her with an anxious face.
There was no way that such a racial characteristic existed. It was just an exaggeration, typical of a Dwarf who liked to put on airs. Adelaide, who unfortunately had a pretty flower garden in her head, seemed to firmly believe in this exaggeration.
“Then, I will try to make it as soon as possible, so you just wait!”
“Yes, thank you!”
She replied with a smile on her face and left the smithy. Walking a few steps forward, she thanked Lisianthus.
“Thank you, Lisian. I definitely feel a little more at ease after seeing the weapon. If I can use my power well, I will be able to protect our members even better.”
“They’re a race that can’t lie!” Adelaide nodded her head and added.
Lisianthus thought it was so cute, but worried that she would get scammed somewhere. So he decided to test it out a little.
“Adele, did you hear the news?”
“Hmm? Which one?”
“There’s this organization that says if you invest money in them, they will unconditionally pay double that amount. They say that it’s an organization that has also received the Demon King’s guarantee…….”
“Double the amount?! Then let’s invest all our money!”
Adelaide shouted before he could even finish. There was not a single ounce of doubt in her sparkling eyes.
Lisianthus squeezed his eyes shut. He knew that she was the type of person to be scammed, but he didn’t expect that she would fall for it this badly. Meanwhile, she was so generous that she’s willing to bet all her fortune at once. He felt a bit dizzy while letting out a deep sigh.
“Adele. Moving forward…… All financial matters must be decided after consulting with me. Alright?”
Lisianthus gently clasped Adelaide’s hand and asked in an earnest voice. Not knowing his thoughts, Adelaide smiled brightly and nodded her head.
“Yes, don’t worry! I’ll definitely consult you first. So, how can I invest in the organization you just mentioned?”
His anxiety deepened.
Adelaide tried to contain her laughter and turned her gaze towards the video.
