Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

A family embracing...

This is a gift I came up with on the spur of the moment to present to my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Why is there such an ugly horse-headed man next to it?

If you're that ugly, you shouldn't show up. You're just ruining the atmosphere.

What a clueless guy...

Ignoring the horse-headed man, the witch's father tossed his sword aside, reached out and embraced his daughter, gently patting her back.

Her mother stood to the side, not interrupting. She looked at her daughter, who was surrounded by her husband and friends, as if she had confirmed that something that had been going on for a long time had finally come to a conclusion.

They took a while to catch their breath...

Then I heard Luo Qixi's voice from afar, but it was intermittent and I couldn't quite make out what she was saying.

All you could see was her hand waving, as if she were explaining something, but the more she explained, the more confusing it became.

The father-in-law's expression shifted from confusion to understanding, and then to a complex emotion that was not easy to describe—somewhere between seemingly understanding and still not quite understanding what was going on.

Then they turned to look at me.

The witch made a gesture as if she was about to punch me, while I made a face at her and waved my hand.

Afterwards, Muya invited the family to another location.

As for me?

We've had enough of that heartwarming scene for now...

They must have a lot more to say, and I don't want to disturb them for the time being.

Exhausted, I rolled over and lay down on the ground, squinting at the high dome, intending to rest for a while longer...

originally......

You should laugh...

But now I can't laugh anymore...

The plan, from start to finish, achieved its intended goals...

But when I saw the happy scene of their family, my heart suddenly felt like it was being gripped by something, and even my breathing became heavy...

Because I was reminded of Senis...

It must be guilt...

Although there are various reasons that could convince me that it's reasonable to go find Loki first, such as Senis being temporarily safe and being farther away, or Loki's situation being unstable and being closer...

but......

It's like your mom and wife falling into the water at the same time...

But I chose to save my wife first...

Is Loki more important to me than Benis?

I don't think so...

That's why I feel guilty...

A sliver of sunlight shone through a crack in the dome, and I suddenly felt that the crack looked somewhat like Senis's hair.

It's golden yellow, the kind that shines in the sunlight. Wait, why does the ceiling look like Senis's hair?

I'm probably tired.

I'm so tired.

But Senis must still be waiting for me...

"Why is Your Majesty crying?"

"I just yawned. I carried you for a whole day and night at full speed, and I'm really tired and sleepy now..."

"Well...it was indeed a terrible feeling back then. If it weren't for His Majesty's intervention, I would have almost died too..."

"Hmm... good to know. I'll take a short nap..."

"Then I'll go find some tea leaves for His Majesty to brew! My castle has a rare and highly prized collection of Socas tea!"

"Hmm~ Yoshi~"

That traitor, Chishilica, is truly...

sensible......

They'll soon be able to accept that they're a mascot.

Moreover, I am truly exhausted.

Perhaps we can use this rest time to plan for the next phase...

Loki is safe now; the next step is to figure out how to find Senis quickly.

Mazes aren't really a problem.

The problem lies in the distance...

And then there's the treatment after they're rescued...

Let's focus on the present. Senis is on a continent with a very long and hard-to-remember name. All I remember is that it's a desert, and it's very far from here.

Although the mainland's name is hard to remember, the labyrinth city of Lapon is quite famous.

I am not quite sure how big this world is, or how far apart the two are.

However, according to Chishilica's all-seeing eye, Senis is about four times farther away than she was from Krasma City.

Does that mean that from a straight line, it would take at least four consecutive days of flight?

Moreover, this is the straight-line distance across the Lingus Sea.

There was nowhere to rest for a long stretch in the middle.

Just thinking about it makes me tired, and even if I can hold on, the previous VOB thrusters couldn't.

When I rushed back before, there was an explosion every few hours.

Previously, I had not considered the long-term operation. Later, I discovered that although carbon nanotube materials have high strength, they are not resistant to high temperatures.

Do not......

To be precise, it is no longer heat-resistant after being oxidized at high temperatures.

In the previous design, the carbon nanotubes inside some parts were already damaged, leaving only brittle diamonds to hold up the entire structure.

When I couldn't hold on any longer, my plane crashed...

So, what if we flew slowly along the coastline?

This is also an alternative, but it's just an alternative.

Perhaps a better solution can be found.

When we rushed back, we were in too much of a hurry, so we didn't immediately make design improvements to the VOB system. Now, perhaps we could try to use a more heat-resistant metal or try to change some of the structural designs.

Moreover, the previous speed was still too slow. After all, it was a thruster that people could carry, and its size was not very large, so the number of nozzles was not many.

Adding more thrusters could potentially increase the speed.

Once you break through the stratosphere, it's like entering a highway; you can fly there at an even faster speed.

This will take less time.

However, the more nozzles there are, the greater the weight...

The greater the weight, the slower the acceleration...

The more difficult it is to break into the stratosphere...

This is so troublesome...

Moreover, as the current ruler of the Demon Continent, I need to make some arrangements before leaving. There must be many people who have been transferred there. Perhaps I can arrange for Chisilika and Atofi to send the victims back.

This behavior should also promote communication between demon and human societies.

only......

Looking at these precious items, the Shadow King felt utterly hopeless...

It's already quite an achievement that Atofi can get along well with Chisilica...

If I hadn't kept these idiots in check, who knows what kind of trouble they would have caused...

This is really troublesome...

Just when I was feeling troubled, an unexpected character appeared.

He struck up a conversation with Atofi as if they were old friends.

And I, lying to the side like a corpse, was completely ignored...

"Sis? You're still alive! I thought Alucard killed you, so I came to your funeral! Hahahaha!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he burst into loud laughter, just like a little dragon.

"Barty? You don't need your brain! You can use it as a ball! A pig brain like yours can be the Demon King of Wisdom? I am the immortal Demon King Atofi, how could I possibly die?!"

Atofi then started bullying his younger brother...

Um......

Batigandi...

The perfect clothes hanger for the God of War Armor.

One of the trump cards of the gods, he was once tricked by the gods into wearing the God of War Armor and fighting against Laplace.

and......

The Wise Demon King?

Perhaps we can make use of it...

"No, no, no! Big sister, please spare me! Don't hit me anymore! I heard that Alucard can directly destroy souls! That's why I came to check on you!"

"Destroy souls?!"

"Yes, that's right. I heard that when he kills, he's incredibly clean and efficient. Many of the bodies don't have a single wound, nor are they poisoned; they're simply killed by some mysterious magic."

Therefore, it was speculated to be a magic trick that destroyed souls.

"Are you sure the Alucard you heard about is the one I met? Why don't you go to my Necros Fortress and see for yourself what Alucard has done to it?!"

"When I came here, there was quite a commotion, so is he still there?"

"No, that plague god is not here for the time being."

This guy...

Is this the work of a god or a god?

Because the Holy Land of Swords is practically a world away from the Demon Continent, normal information transmission would definitely be distorted.

And his description of his destined death... is so vivid!

Just as I was about to stand up again and rejoin the conversation, Chishilica appeared.

For some unknown reason, this guy came running to my side with a cup of tea, acting all coquettish and affected!

She knelt down beside my head, then placed my head on her knees and obediently fed me water.

I'm sorry~~

Sorry to have kept the Shadow Lord waiting~~

Because I don't know which thief stole all my collection of Socas tea while I was away~~

Therefore, I can only spend some time using other teas instead.

Brother Shadow, you won't blame me, will you?

I just feel sorry for my brother~~

After his exaggerated performance and speech, he even looked towards Batigandi...

Batigandi's face instantly turned quite ugly...

Goodness...

This green tea is truly exceptional...

And I've actually become a minotaur!!!
