Escorted by Mac-kun and the soldiers, I came to the castle for the first time.
After passing through the corridor, the double doors open, and we enter the room where the King is.
“Wel—cough cough!
Greetings!”
The King rose and welcomed us.
[You don’t have to use honorifics.]
“Ummm, yes. I will speak to you comfortably.
Let’s get right down to it. I hear you have something to tell me today. What?!”
The King jumped up in surprise.
What in the world is going on?

With that said, I [Appraisal] out of habit.

“What?!”
The title [Demon King]?! Is this serious?!
Being royalty, [Appraisal Disguise] (replacing the results of [Appraisal] with something else) does not work on me at all.
That is why the information is displayed as it is, without any falsification.
In the information shown without being blocked, the title of [Demon King] is among the titles!
We have been wondering where the next Demon King after the Demon King Gorn was, but what a surprise to find that Cat Sith-dono had obtained the title!
W-what should I do….
As I was scrambling around, Cat Sith-dono wrote, [May I use the typewriter to have a conversation?]
“O-okay.”
Cat Sith-dono took out a typewriter, stretched himself like a cat, and started typing.
Nico reads it out.
“Etto… [There’s something I want to ask. I heard there’s a law that says you can’t grow the raw material for sugar?]”
“Umm… the old King and the heroes made that agreement.
They make profits from the rich by raising the price of sugar.
The profits are used to build public utilities and orphanages for the underprivileged.
What’s wrong with that?”
“Hang on. [Isn’t beheading or slaughtering an entire family a bit much?]”
“Those who undermine the national interest will be rewarded accordingly.
It is only natural.”
They tried several times to change the law but were firmly refused.
Eventually, they gave up.
“[Who’s in charge of the sugar business?]”
“It’s Viscount Barom, the descendant of a hero.”
“Your Majesty! Why are you answering me so seriously?
We should just get rid of this creepy cat!”
The young soldier who had broCatt Cat Sith-dono said.
Ah, did he not know about the great mage’s uproar three years ago when he took up his new job?
“You! How dare you speak so rudely to His Majesty and the Grand Mage!”
“Enough, Minister. You step back.”
“……Yes, sir.”
I sent the young soldier back and introduced Viscount Barom to Cat Sith-dono.
Since he was just coming to town, I decided to call on him.
Sometime later, Viscount Barom, a slender man with a well-defined face, arrives.
