A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss - Chapter 536.3

Eventually, the time arrived.

A young man appeared in the middle of the stadium.

Yuki, the Demon Emperor.

More people probably did not know him rather than those who knew him, but all the staff members who had been scrambling around to prepare for the event all stepped aside, and when he alone appeared in the stadium, one could tell that some kind of event was about to begin, and the bustle that had been so loud and loud gradually diminished.

He then, at the right moment when the atmosphere of the place had been fostered, raised his voice, majestically and without any sign of nervousness.

[Gentlemen! I am Yuki, the 23rd Emperor of the Rogard Empire! I am the one in charge of this country at this moment!]

His voice, expanded with magic tools, echoed through the wide space.

Hearing those words, voices such as “That is…”, “I heard he is young…”, “The rumored Demon Lord…”, “That aura that doesn’t seem human… I see”, etc. were heard from everywhere.

Very few people, even those in the Rogard Empire, knew of his appearance. It was not a big ceremony, and he did not succeed to the throne in a big way.

Humans were not so sensitive to strength, so they only sensed the youthfulness of the emperor whom they finally got to know… But the other races apparently were different, and Alveiro, who was watching from the anteroom, could see that they were looking at him with awe and respect. Alveiro could tell.

[I can only thank you, as the one who is in charge of this country, for bringing us to this day in one piece! Above all, the Dwarf King Doda and his numerous craftsmen who successfully completed this stadium despite the very short construction period! My heartfelt thanks to them!]

Then, a spotlight was directed to the guest of honor’s seat, showing a lone dwarf there with his fist raised in the air.

He was the King of the Dwarves, the builder of the stadium, which had been described as the most advanced of its kind in the world.

Loud applause surrounded him.

[I would like to thank the Rulers of other nations as well! Without their cooperation, this day would not have come, and this competition would not have been held! My heartfelt thanks also to all those who cooperated with us for the Magic Festival!]

These words were met with loud applause once again.

Despite Yuki not admitting to it, he was showing a remarkable amount of determination.

He seemed to think of himself as unfit to be an emperor, but there was great dignity in his presence, as he was not intimidated at all by the crowd.

He had the makings of a great ruler, and even had the power to be one.

The mission that was assigned to Alveiro was to exceed that… but there was no doubt that it would not be as easy as it sounded.

[And – before we begin the Magic Festival, there is one thing I want everyone here to witness!]

–Here it comes.

[Rogard Empire citizens must be thinking! I am happy that we were able to hold the Magic Festival in this country. But, still, the politics of the country is still in the hands of other nations! However, I wonder how much longer this country will have to be in the position of being a defeated nation! I have actually been confronted with this thought on several occasions!]

Alveiro stood up from the bench he was sitting on as the buzz of the crowd grew at Yuki’s words.

Alveiro said to Helger, “Okay, I’m off.”

Helger replied, “I’ll be waiting for the time to serve you, my friend.”

Alveiro walked out into the stadium, alone, with Helger watching him go.

All eyes immediately focused on him.
