The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 521 Even if it is served, it may be a dish

"Ah! I'm done with it! I'm done with it! It's too boring and not fun at all!"

Milim yelled like a little kid.

She had only been learning martial arts for half a day, but she already complained that she didn't want to learn anymore because she thought it was boring and uninteresting.

She completely ignored the mischievousness and willfulness of this guy. A devil like her who was free and unrestrained by nature, and who was always unrestrained and undisciplined, naturally could not stand the boredom of learning martial arts.

Of course, I'm more curious about the town.

Zun Zun knew very well that Milim was actually interested in learning martial arts, but she was more interested in the new and interesting things in the town, so that's why.

Yes, unlike Zunzun who was already accustomed to the town, Milim's heart was like a cat scratching when she saw such a new town. How could she restrain herself?

Mr. Bai also understood this.

“Hehehe… Then why not take a break?” He stroked his beard and said, “Sir, take Milim-sama around town for a bit, and also order some clothes. And Rimuru-sama also said that we can go to the workshop and order some magic tools.”

It's obviously a hint to Zun Zun.

"Well, that's fine too."

After a morning of training, he also knew that the magic props he made might not be suitable for Milim, and going to the workshop to modify the magic props was the best solution.

Only Milim seemed a little strange.

"Why do you need to order clothes? This is all you need."

“…Since Milim is so cute, I want to see you wearing other pretty clothes, isn’t that okay?”

"What! Am I cute!?"

"Yeah, cute, cute."

Milim, who was as innocent as a child, didn’t notice Zun Zun’s perfunctory and evasive words at all. She was immersed in being praised for her cuteness and walked into the town in a good mood.

After repeatedly telling her not to mess around, the two came to the clothing workshop.

It's nothing.

It's simply because it's close.

At Rimuru's request, the clothing workshop became a clothing store similar to the previous life, and Zun Zun picked a lot of clothes for Milim that suited his taste. It's also unforgettable that good-looking people look good in any clothes.

But Milim didn't seem to like it. She shouted that she wanted to wear the same Crimson Demon outfit as Zun Zun, which made the clothing store owner feel troubled.

In the end, it was Zun Zun who told the clothing store owner the pattern of the Red Demon suit and chose to have it custom-made, which calmed the noisy children down.

There's nothing to be unhappy about.

Someone likes the taste of the Red Demon Clan, and Zun Zun is so happy that he can’t contain himself.

Then the two came to the weapons workshop.

Kurobei was a little embarrassed after hearing Zun Zun's request, but after teaching him the essence of the Red Demon Clan's magic tool making, Kurobei's eyes lit up and he was very happy. Zun Zun also taught him a lot because Kurobei did have a certain talent for magic tools.

This caused him to completely forget about Milim.

When I remembered it again, it was a deafening roar coming from the street.

“——It’s over!”

Zun Zun didn't see her in the workshop, so he knew that the guy had sneaked out, and he had a bad feeling. He was not afraid that Milim would get hurt, but he was a little embarrassed that he didn't watch over the child when he was asked to do so.

Quickly came to the center of the commotion.

There was already a group of people gathered there, including Benimaru, Shuna, and others. In addition, the big goblin Rigurd seemed to have been beaten and had some serious injuries on his face.

"what happened?"

“…It’s Rimuru. I just got here too. But sorry, I think I guessed who did it.”

Looking at Rimuru falling from the sky, Zun Zun apologized first.

And was not blamed.

Rimuru knew very well that Milim was uncontrollable, so he had anticipated this situation and was mentally prepared early on.

Looking at the center of the venue.

There was a black-haired demon lying on the ground, with a very painful expression, spitting out filth from his mouth and his tongue sticking out. He seemed to be still alive, but his eyes were rolled back and his body was completely motionless.

Milim, who was standing in front of this person, was making a punching gesture.

I couldn't help but pull the corners of my mouth.

Milim greeted him happily after seeing him, “Look, Zun-zun! I just used martial arts!”

It's not meant for you to use it like this!

Facing Rimuru's subtle gaze, Zun Zun turned his head away awkwardly. Milim made it seem as if she was the one who instigated this situation, which was really a headache.

Zun Zun finally understood how Patriarch Bodhi felt when he drove Sun Wukong away and told him repeatedly not to say his name after getting into trouble.

This trouble maker!
Around him, several people who looked like the demon's subordinates had forgotten to run away and were frozen in place. They were probably confused by the situation and didn't know what to do.

The black-haired demon lying on the ground was a subordinate of Demon King Karion. As soon as he arrived, he arrogantly said that he wanted them to submit to the command of Demon King Karion, which naturally led to Rigurd's refusal. Then he punched Rigurd without saying a word.

Milim, who was strolling on the street, saw him sneaking away and was furious. She punched the man to the ground.

"How's it going? How's it going? Did I do well? Was my posture just now very standard?"

Milim’s eyes sparkled and her tone was full of pride, as if she really wanted to praise her.

But should I praise it?
Not to mention her current behavior, it's like going from the 9th floor to the 10th floor. It's obvious that she can get there by just walking up a few steps of stairs, but she insists on walking up the stairs to the 1st floor and then taking the elevator up. It makes no sense at all.

the most important is--

"Didn't we agree not to do anything without permission? And you ran away secretly without telling me..."

“Eh? No, that’s not it… this is…!”

"We're out of steak for lunch."

“No—”

Milim wailed. If the black-haired demon hadn’t been still lying on the ground with his eyes rolled back, she would have thought that she was the one being bullied.

"Damn it, it's all this guy's fault. Karion too, a bastard who broke the agreement! One hit isn't enough, at least let me hit him a second time...!"

“Pause, pause, pause!”

Rimuru hurriedly tried to stop her. If she continued to act recklessly, not only the black-haired demon, but even his subordinates would not be spared.

Then everyone came to the meeting room.

Although Milim didn’t have the steak for lunch, Rimuru considered that he might have to extract information from her later, so he first used the delicious sandwich made by Shuna to soothe her mouth. Milim ate the sandwich with gusto and her mood improved.

He even gave Zun Zun a sandwich, hoping that he would not be angry with him.

When the black-haired demon woke up, a tense meeting began.

First of all, his name is Fabio.

They are one of the three beast warriors of Demon Lord Carion, fierce warriors known as Black Panther Fangs, and their purpose in coming here is to recruit the survivors into their ranks.

In addition, it is normal for him to be arrogant. Even though this guy was knocked down with one punch, it depends on who the opponent was. At least his magic power is higher than that of Benimaru and Shion, and only slightly lower than Rimuru. He is almost at the level of a quasi-demon king, and is a very powerful demon.

...Of course, she is far inferior to Zun Zun and Milim.

He also restrained himself a lot under the threat of the destructive tyrant, but his initial show of force was discovered, which made him lose face. In addition, his purpose was not simple and his social skills were extremely poor, so in the end, they had to part ways unhappily.

After all, if you want to win over Rimuru and the others, you should at least show sincerity and benefits, instead of being arrogant and aggressive like this.

Or maybe he feels that his position is not secure, so he is trying to intimidate the younger generation?

Zun Zun doesn't understand.

After the breakdown of the negotiations, Milim gritted her teeth and expressed her dissatisfaction with the Demon King Karion. At this time, Rimuru's sandwich just now came in handy. He used emotional appeals and the steak to successfully convince Milim and get information about the Demon King.

I know about the three demon kings other than Milim and their intentions. I know what happened this time and the tricks behind it.

"But I never thought that the demon kings would try to create a puppet demon king..."

"But what's the intention?"

"...I don't know, I just think it's fun."

Milim was just doing it for fun. She was just interested in this plan, so she joined and let the other three demon kings do it, not knowing the purpose at all.

And Zun Zun guessed that maybe he wanted to control the Demon King’s right to speak or vote or something like that?

After all, becoming a demon king allows you to participate in the demon king's banquet, which involves a lot of shady operations.

The orc king Kallion was born as the demon king 400 years ago. It was a turbulent era, and it was also an era of fierce battles between the old and new demon kings. In the end, only he and the demon king Frey survived among the many strong men.

About a hundred years later, Demon King Clayman was born. Then came Leon, who defeated the Curse King nearly two hundred years ago and declared himself Demon King.

These four are called the New Generation by the Demon King.

In contrast, those in the old days had all experienced more than two wars without losing their lives, and those guys were all incredibly powerful.

Therefore, many demon kings of the new generation are deliberately trying to expand their power.

There is nothing we can do about having such thoughts. After all, the most urgent thing is to survive the next generation, and nothing else matters.

But this is the stupidest idea.

Being able to attend a banquet does not mean that you have nothing to worry about. What may be served on the table may just be a dish.

Because in this world, the biggest fist is the most powerful! No matter how many subordinates you have, they are useless without corresponding strength.

Only those strong ones who have the ability to overturn the table can be called true demon kings - perhaps it is because of this that other powerful demon kings will sit back and watch, or even treat this as an after-dinner entertainment.

Zun Zun and Milim quickly put the matter behind them.

One of them is not a demon king, and the other is a demon king but is too powerful. There is no need for them to waste their time on such things. It is better to train more with this time.

Unexpectedly, less than a week later, that guy took revenge on everyone by doing something terrible.
