Chapter 23: Scout System

When we returned to the super special class’ room, we went walking to the dining room. Because of the time, it was not a restaurant dedicated to super special classes, but a restaurant used by ordinary students. So, I ordered dinner normally and took a seat,

“-Well, that’s one of the senior students who was scouted by the Demon King and remained in the castle.”

“Oh, there are only a few scouted every year. Certainly, the numbers in the scholar’s badge are those of last year. … but why is she with Chrono? And today, the vampire princess and the demon King are with him too. ”

“They seem kind of good friends, but it’s Chrono. I guess there was something that made senior look at him.”

“I guess he’s going to do something amazing.”

I heard the classmates’ voices were heard from a distance away. It’s pretty weird, so I wanted them came over here and talk without making an air pocket around me. If these air pockets remained even a few days after enrollment, it would be pretty sad.

“Rather, what is scouting …”

The mutter was picked up by the Demon King sitting opposite.

“Oh, I ask my child to work at the castle without going home. Hey Salamado.”

“Yeah, but … it’s been a long time since I came here. Liza told me to work at Demon Castle, and I ate somewhere else.”

“Oh, well, if you’re no longer a student, your mealtimes will change. You’ll have a few seniors, so there will be fewer classmates.”

Then, it might stand out considerably only by being a senior. Because the year of the enrollment is written in the school emblem used to enter the dining room, if it is a good-eyed demon family, it notices it immediately. In other words, there are so many demons with good sight.

“By the way, from now on, Chrono will also be scouting!”

“Eh!? It’s great that you’ve already got a job offer, Chrono-san.”

Sofia says so, but to be honest, I don’t like the reaction.

“… Is it okay to say thank you?”

“Yeah! I’ll ask you later in the year if you want to accept it, so please!”

“Yes, I understand.”

For now, though, I’m almost certainly going to decline.

It is quite fun to dive into the dungeon, but I think that it is also fun to return to my parents ‘ home and live as a pharmacist. And the latter is easier.

… I think it would be a lot of annoying problems working near the Demon King.

I think that the demons who work near the Demon King should have more abilities. That would be more versatile.

“Oh… I had a feeling that I was going to be turned down when I looked into Chrono’s eyes right now.”
“Oh, is that so?”

“I can’t deny it, because I have Succubus’ blood. So, I have a racial ability to sense the mood, so I can understand it. Well, you change your intention within a year. I’m gonna think it’s good. ”

Apparently, the Demon King has many abilities. After all, I think that there are many of such high specs in this castle…

“… Speaking of which, I was paying close attention to Chrono’s physical abilities and control, but are there any abilities as a demon? The feature is its horn, but is it hard?”

Liza shook her head and asked me. I thought a little while stroking my horn.

“Hmm … no. This horn is a bit hard, but it breaks normally when it hits iron.”

There is nothing unique to the devils.

Although it is a tribal problem, so there’s no inferiority complex, but I think the special powers of other races are enviable.

“This horn is a reservoir for the magical powers of the demon, but it is normal for demons to have organs for such powers.”

“Well, that’s right.”

For example, if you belong to the dragon family, there is an organ inside the body that stores the power of fire, and if you are a wind spirit, there is a bag that stores the power of the wind.

It’s not uncommon for demons to have energy storage organs. So, in that sense, devils are normal.

“Also, we are the same as other demons, but only live a little longer. My acquaintances rarely die, so I was taught in various ways.”

“I was told a lot about the countryside. How big is it? I looked into it a bit, but there was no city registered at that place.”

“Is that so? Well, there are not a thousand people living there. It’s most likely that peddlers won’t come.”

Although the relationship is dry to some extent, the pharmacist is one of the few townspeople who can see almost all the residents.

“When it comes to a thousand or so, it’s small as a city, but it’s big for a village. …… Yes, the scale isn’t normal. And I wonder if the investigation was messy when I couldn’t find it.”

“Well, it’s a small area in the mountains. There are times when the fog is very high, and above all, the forest is deep. I think there are only a few people who really know it.”

Because devils are long-lived, they often start their own small towns and villages. So, even if there are villages and towns that you can’t find, it’s not strange.

Rumors from peddlers and others sometimes reveal the place names.

… I guess no merchant would rumor a small, unprofitable town.

The land is big, and the fields are abundant, so it is an area that is not troublesome to eat, but it has only that characteristic.

I feel a little lonely, but I’ve lived without any problems and I think it’s good.
“Rather, for me, I thought the countries and towns where other people live were too crowded. Sophia that is a princess, and maybe being in the Dominator’s, would Yukino be like that too?”

“Yup……?”

She seemed to be hungry, and when I saw Yukino, who had been stuck on a meal from a while ago, she nodded while licking the fat on her cheek.

“Well, I was noble, for sure. The city and the house where I lived were really big.”

Ah, she was a high-ranking person. When I was in the super-special class, I thought it was like that.

“It’s a group of people who have status or power, it’s a super-advanced class.”

“But positioning doesn’t matter in front of ability. In that sense, I think that you will produce an unexpected result if you work beside the demon King. I mean, I’m already out.”

“Yes, Chrono is the fastest and biggest earner in history. I think he’s a very valuable person!”

Again, I got an evaluation that left me feeling uneasy.

“… Well, I’m going to do as much as I can. Let’s eat now. I’m hungry too.”

“That’s right. Well, it’s my treat, so eat to the fullest.”

Then, on the third day after coming to Demon King’s Castle, the dinner was lively
