A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss - Chapter 537.1

The Finale!! 

“Hey, Onii-chan! That was very, very cool! Thanks for your hard work!” (Illuna)

“You were so cool!” (Shii)

“…you looked great.” (Enne)

“Oh, thank you. If you guys can say that, then all the preparation I’ve done is worth it.” (Yuki)

The Wraith Girls nodded their heads over and over again to indicate that they agreed.

Mm…mm, I’m glad we worked so hard on this. All the hard work we put in, it all paid off at this moment.

After the girls, the adults opened their mouths.

“You have long been like that… you are surprisingly fearless, aren’t you? Even on such a big stage.” (Lefi)

“Right! Onii-san, you have guts, after all.” (Nell)

“If it were me, I’d probably shrink down and start shivering…” (Lyuu)

“If it were me, I probably wouldn’t be heard because I would be too afraid to speak…” (Layla)

“Haha, well, to me, the audience here is, frankly speaking, unimportant. I could simply think of them as a bunch of scarecrows, and wouldn’t really be bothered by them.” (Lefi)

For me, I didn’t genuinely care what the audience here thought.

What my family thought of me mattered more.

As long as I had my family here, that was all I needed anyway.

Also, I was simply used to this. As an emperor, I’ve had a few opportunities to talk to them in some kind of high-handed way.

“Anyway, you guys, the [Magic Festa] is about to start. That one’s pretty interesting, so have fun.”

And so the Magic Festa began.

–With this, the throne of the emperor was passed on to the next generation.

The position of Emperor, the head of the country, had now been returned to a citizen of this country.

There might be interference from other countries for the next few decades, but I could say that this was the opportunity for them to take back control of the government of the country.

As for the dungeon-related matters that were important to me, unfortunately, I have given Alveiro a very limited amount of authority over them, about the same amount of authority that I have allowed the Demon King and others to have.

When I mentioned a little bit of control, it would be like modification of a created space that exists in the Rogard Empire, similar to modifying my grassland area.

Some people knew that this country was founded on a dungeon, but few knew what exactly they could do with it.

Even the Emperors of the past have kept the secret of the dungeon as a very serious matter, and Alveiro himself did not seem to know much about it, so in future, this country should grow up as a country that has nothing to do with the dungeon.

I would, of course, cooperate with them if something happened, this was a lifeline I offered to them. After all, I just could not let this place get destroyed while I’m around, no matter how many decades or hundreds of years pass by.

But I was also sure that this country would be fine.

Other than that, in my opinion, Alveiro would do fine as a Ruler. Even against the other Rulers, who were all good at what they did, Alveiro should be able to compete with them as an equal.

The man had the intelligence, the nerve, and the guts to do it. It might not all go well from the start, but if something were to go wrong, I believe that he would be able to handle it.

If the Rogard Empire developed and grew in population, it would directly increase my DP.

For my sake, please make the country prosperous.

◇◇◇

The Magic Festival was scheduled for five days.

The time was not all filled with competitions, but there were also performances by renowned musicians from around the world invited by the Rogard Empire, accompanied by dancing, narrative shows, and various other performances by groups of people who were invited regardless of race.

Well, the Magic Festa became more like a magical performance competition, that’s why we have also concluded that it would be more exciting to have other kinds of performances during the breaks and the fields are being set up, so we called for plenty of performers to join.

So, I heard that the scheduling was a deathly task. Thank you so much for your hard work.

First, the winner of the Magic Festa, in which I was not so much involved, had already been decided.

It was a one-on-one battle between a demon and an elf, and the winner was, as the rumors said, the elf.

It was the elves who performed the better magic performance, but in fact the difference was quite close, really only a few points or so.

I would say that it was a good, close, heated, and well worth watching finale.
