“The Illustrated Book of Local Customs” in “Makai Magazine”.
“After the birth of the intelligent races, they separated and formed their own unique cultures. In the long years of the past, we hardly had any cultural exchanges. The only ideological exchange may be that we abandoned our respective gods and turned to believe in the gods of light. Nowadays, we have no cultural exchanges. Under the advocacy of His Majesty Greenward, cultural exchanges have gradually begun. I am a bard wandering all over the world. I am very fortunate to have a column in the magazine. In the coming time, I will share with you a lot from Interesting customs in various places allow everyone to fully understand other ethnic groups.①
The Magnolia Empire, a famous pie filling in the Magnolia Empire, was made with the larvae of small golden beetles. In fact, the food for this kind of insects is available all over the continent. Honey cockroaches were once popular in the Plague Islands, and they taste quite good, but since I found one of the honey cockroaches that has not yet died, I have not eaten it anymore. That thing. Of course, with the impact of the devil’s cuisine, these original specialties are becoming less and less popular. The demons have improved many of the original food recipes for humans, but their interest in bugs and the like is lacking. I have to say that the culinary concepts brought by the devil’s cuisine have affected the cooking of human beings. During the trip, I went to some human restaurants, and it was obviously much better than before. Of course, it’s still incomparable with the delicacies of the Demon Mall.
Culture is gradually developing. I realized this.
The people of Dijon also made a deep impression on me. They seldom bathe. The **** of the steppe they believe in told them to bathe less. Their way of bathing is to take off and bathe in the rain on a rainy day-this is the oracle of the **** of the steppe, they think so. In addition, they put oil stains on their clothes after eating, and think that the more oil stains on their clothes, the more glorious they are. I thought about it for a long time, and thought it might be that they are poorer overall, so the more oil pollution means that they eat well. This is a kind of external display…It seems that it can only be understood in this way.
Then the Dijon people will give this kind of oily clothes to their subordinates, who will think it is glory, roughly ‘ah, this is full of the smell of Master XX! It’s really wonderful! ’
And in some villages in the north of Mülheim, there is such a festival to commemorate relatives. They will turn over the bodies of their relatives and dance together, and then tell the children how important this person is. I was almost scared to death the first time I went there. I was frightened during the whole process because I had seen too many corpses before. Later, I chatted with the elders in the village, and he told me in a wise voice that people in other places would change because they didn’t care about their dead relatives, and they would pull the corpses of their relatives out to dance every year, which represented them. The cherishment of relatives, the corpse will not undergo corpse transformation under this kind of feelings. I think it makes sense and I am deeply moved. I went to the village again three years later and learned that the elder had died because of his wife’s corpse while dancing with his deceased wife.
Me, I don’t know what to say.
…
Today’s column is over here. The deputy editor invited me to say that after I finish writing the customs of the human world, I can travel to the demon world for free, and show everyone the interesting customs of the demons. I look forward to it very much, and I think everyone is too. “
Very smoothly, this “Guide to Local Customs” by bard Descartes became one of the most popular columns in this issue of the magazine. Readers all looked at this article with gusto, and then exchanged:
“Ah, I didn’t expect that we humans also have so many fun things.”
“Yeah, I thought humans were so boring before, only the demons are interesting.”
“But we have to thank the Demon Race. Without the Demon Race, we would not have discovered that we humans have so many interesting things. The previous Josh Kenny Oktoberfest and the Plague Islands Poseidon Festival were like this.”
“Yes, I’m looking forward to live broadcasts of that kind of show.”
“That elder…well…it’s too miserable…”
“It seems that this kind of festivals and customs should be managed. Even if they are not banned, they should be carried out under the supervision of a mage and the like. This is too dangerous.”
“After the publication is published, the Bingdi will take care of it, right?”
Soon after, Ice Emperor Cloud issued an order requiring imperial mages to go to the border town every year to perform missions to protect the villagers who adhere to the customs. Anyway, that holiday is only once a year.
“It really works to publish these things in magazines!”
“Your Majesty is so wise!”
“Speaking of which can reflect something in the magazine to make the royal family notice it!”
“Indeed! Why don’t we try to post the story of Bled forcibly plundering a lot of girls into a magazine?”
“Try it… It won’t work to find the city lord anyway.”
Soon after the matter was resolved smoothly, Theodore, assistant to the academician, personally sent someone to deal with the local bully, Blide, and replaced the city lord officials here.
This incident was also published in the magazine.
So far, many people have learned the law of public opinion supervision. The crime of treacherous crimes is gradually decreasing. Of course, “Makai Magazine” must also be propagating this.
“Mozu makes human beings better.” Such voices were everywhere for a while.
Hill took the initiative to write an article on this matter, the main content is “Many people are now saying that demons make humans better. To be honest, this is a fact. But I also want to say that humans also make demons. The race has become better. Mankind has taught the Mozu many things, taught the Mozu what emotion is, and told the Mozu what kindness is…” This article is very affectionate, but Hill found that it was written in the past. The feeling of the overbearing demon king’s script…cough…but humans only need to eat this set.
Before the reopening of the Demon World Mall, a group of people were happy. Then Hill’s successive actions made the empire a happy scene for the next time. The kings divided the demons’ residential areas in major cities. Hill asked some people to treat humans. The relatively friendly demons who are interested in culture have moved over, and their work problems are of course solved by the industries under the control of the demons.
In just one month, mankind presented a peaceful situation of singing and dancing, and it was exactly what Hill meant.
In order to disgust the Bright Church, Hill also wrote in the “Devil Magazine” how good it is for the Bright Church to be able to break their arms and convert the evil spirits. He hopes that the Bright Church and the Dark Vatican, together with the demons and mankind, will create a peaceful and prosperous world for the entire planet. This greeting from the air almost did not disgust the people of the Illuminati Church. What surprised the Illuminati Church was that the Pope of the Illuminati responded with a positive attitude.
“Why is the Pope like that…”
“Has the pope succumbed to the demons?”
“The Pope is not awe-inspiring at all…”
This kind of whispering began to increase, and the cohesion of the Bright Church became worse than before.
Up to now, the Pope of Light was able to put down his hatred and dignity to respond to Hill’s words, indicating that he was indeed a powerful person, but he was dragged down by his own men, and his men did not understand his behavior. In fact, this is also a backlash. Before the pope brainwashed them, the despicability of the demons, the nobility of the church, the dignity of the pope’s position… In this way, behavior that does not conform to the human setting will inevitably lead to such a result.

Spring in Mülheim is a humid and cold season, and the air pressure on people feels heavy. The temperature at this time is very uncomfortable, it is not too cold, but it is definitely not warm. If you wear thick clothes, a layer of sweat will soon appear on the body surface, making the clothes stick to the skin tightly, which is very uncomfortable. Unlike the icy blue winter sky, the spring sky in Mülheim has always been dark and full of haze.
Hill sits in the restaurant on the second floor of the Makai Shopping Mall. He likes to sit against the window and enjoy the scenery outside while eating. Hill actually has a fear of heights. If he is not deliberately suppressed, this height will naturally make him nervous, but this kind of tension is just right, and Hill enjoys this.
……Although this behavior is a bit subtle and perverted.
“”The Illustrated Book of Local Customs” is really a tasteful article.” The bachelor put the latest issue of “Makai Magazine” on the table and sat across from Hill.
“What’s the matter? There are more flavorful customs.” Hill said.
“There is more flavor?” The bachelor did not believe it.
Hill cleared his throat and said, “There is a kind of people called ancient Romans who use urine to wash clothes and gargle.”
Bachelor: “…”
Bachelor: “I don’t believe it, I think you’re hacking humans.”
Hill said sincerely: “This is true. At that time, there was a tax law called urine tax. People who collect urine to make money needed to pay the tax. Then they brushed their teeth with the broken steps of the urine, because they I think urine can be sterilized.”
The bachelor is faltering.
Hill continued: “Then, there were nobles who bought high-end barreled urine from the next country.”
The bachelor almost fainted.
Hill showed a polite smile with eight teeth: “You are finished speaking, and what would you like to eat for the bachelor?”
“…I don’t want to eat at the moment.” said the bachelor.
“So what’s the matter with you asking me out?” Hill continued to ask.
“There is something, but I forgot.” The bachelor said, “What you told me was so scary that my thinking was disrupted.”
Hill thought of Theodore the other day, and he shook his head and sighed: “You humans, why is the mental capacity so bad.”
“You demons, why do you always come up with all kinds of tricks to fix people.” said the academician.
When Hill was about to speak, the bachelor rejected his last sentence: “I have a problem with this sentence. Other demons are also very good, except you.”
“Hahahaha alright, I will take this as a compliment.” Hill said.
The academician came to discuss with Hill about the living quarters of the demons in the human city, in addition to making relevant legislation. Hill hopes to weave some demons into the blue cloak-the blue cloak is an army to maintain the security of Winter City, which is equivalent to the police in the capital.
“As for other aspects, the demons and humans are treated equally.” Hill said.
“Eh, is it a nobleman with humans?” asked the academician.
Hill was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the law in this period was originally biased towards the nobles. For example, how much money a noble would need to compensate the civilians’ family members for killing a civilian, and if the civilians had no family members, then the treasury would be collected. Magnolia City also has such a law, so in order to collect money, Prince Borai killed the whole family of civilians after the nobles killed people. In this way, the nobles’ compensation must be turned over to the treasury. Of course, no one dared to deal with Borai. The prince enforces the law.
“…Then you figure it out.” Hill said, “Finally, just give me a look at the law.”
“Okay.” said the bachelor.
Their conversations did not have much politeness, so the efficiency was extremely high. After half an afternoon passed, many details were confirmed. After the end, the bachelor drank tea, while Hill took a sip of black tea and ate a piece of red velvet cake. Red velvet cake is currently one of the favorite cake types of the nobles in Winter City. The beautiful shape, the delicate and silky taste, one bite, the rich strawberry milk fragrance, and the white chocolate on the shell is even more original. Ascend to heaven.
“The kings are struggling, but you seem to be quite at ease with the current situation, bachelor.” Hill said.
“Do you mean that the demons are manipulating human thoughts?” asked the academician.
“You are so blunt,” Hill said, “I’m going to be stabbed by your sharp words.”
“If you are not so unspeakable, I think our communication might be smoother.” The academician’s mouth twitched and said.
“If I’m not so playful and funny, it’s likely that our relationship won’t start.” Hill smiled slightly.
The scholars of the university will feel awe-inspiring, no matter what the other party is the contemporary demon king, but no matter what kind of identity the other party is, at least the other party now shows that it is easy to communicate with. He must keep these two points in mind: “Then I will continue. Let’s talk about business…because someone has to lead thoughts anyway, whether the church of light or the church of darkness, people need to believe in something.”
“You can see.” Hill said.
“There is no way, the public always can’t open their eyes…” The scholar coughed a few times after speaking, “The current empire can’t afford this.”
“You really are not afraid that I will completely control you?” Hill asked.
The academician shook his head: “The human race can continue no matter what. The demons have brought too many beneficial things. Although we still haven’t opened our eyes, we already have a lot of good consciousness. We insist on living, passing on from generation to generation… Even if you control us now, humans can still struggle to come out in ten, twenty, or a hundred years.”
“That’s true.” Hill clapped his hands. “Okay, I’ve decided. I will negotiate a condition with you. After you agree, I will go and find a way to convert you into the longevity of the demon clan.”
“What are the conditions?” asked the bachelor.
“Assist the next demon king for ten years.” Hill said.
“Deal.” The academician said in a deep voice, his somewhat muddy eyes shot a sharp light, which was quite imposing.
After a few seconds he couldn’t help being curious, “Well, what is the next Demon King…”
“Anyway, it’s different from me.” Hill said casually: “It’s not a sand sculpture.”
Bachelor: “…Huh???”
