PART 2

What? Why lie?

I came to the Cursed Wetlands with Lerga.

Lilia and that girl have bones.

Bones? I have bones, and so do you. After creeping forward, I observed the area around the centre of the swamp from a faraway cliff.

Bones and birds are fighting.

Bones and birds are fighting Mhm. He repeated the words that the adorable Lerga had said. She made the same gestures as he did, like a swan.

The thick steak on the grilled stone plate, which gave an impression that it was very juicy, was being cut into pieces by a knife and fork.

Lerga still held a bone in her hand, as if regretting that she ate the meat on the bone.

The [Swamp Demon] deals with powerful magic that Ive never seen, and seems much more like a demon lord than me.

Maybe its still in its growth period? Its powers are growing crazily fast.

But lets put that aside for now.

The main question is, why are Lilia and Kageha here?

I had told you. I had told you not to worry about the Wetlands, Kageha.

In other words, youre ignoring my instructions.

Hey, Lerga, why do you think Lilia and Kageha came here?

Thats obvious.

No way. Lerga seems very confident in her hypothesis.

Sneaking off.

I guess youre right. Hmmm seriously?

Could it be that youre trying to recruit [Swamp Demon] before me and create a faction within the organization?!

No, I shouldnt hastily decide its a rebellion.

Lets not be negative, lets be positive.

Imagine the most convenient world for me.

.

Hey, isnt our president amazing? Isnt he amazing?

Right? Hes got the charisma of a demon king.

But I mean, isnt the boss working too hard?

Then, why dont we just finish the job ourselves?

No That was far too positive.

However, upon thinking deeper about it, I realized that the girls will have to do work such as cleaning when they return to the mansion. Considering the size of my mansion, Lilia and the others are obviously not enough to prepare meals and clean.

I see.

It did make sense that they came here on their own to recruit subordinates.

Theyve got such big bones its not fair

As I ate while picking at the vegetables in between the meat, I began to think, That bone monster is strong, isnt it?

Hes controlling something that looks like a big pinball That was dangerous! You were about to hit those two!

I stopped eating my lunch and wiped my mouth with a handkerchief.

Crono-sama, are you going somewhere?

Yes. Im going to work for a bit, can you join those two over there?

I stood up and pulled out the black sword that was placed in my back, and instructed Lerga to play with it as I made preparations.

While I was teaching Princess Erika, I thought I should practice more with my sword, but I never thought Id get a chance to show my sword skills off for real.

Black Sword, Makuhiki.

Its one of the many Demon Lord weapons Ive made.

Okay.

Here, these are leftovers, but you can eat them if you want. Ive cut them into small pieces. If you want, you can also have some of the special fried rice I made.

Okay!

That was an enthusiastic answer.

I nodded to Lerga, who immediately began eating the steak, and jumped to the center of the swamp.

Demon King, huh?

A handsomely dressed boy landed on top of the heart of the Cursed Wetlands, with a beautiful jet-black sword standing in front of him.

His well defined muscles could be seen even through his clothes. He certainly looked like a warrior, but at the end, he was still just a boy.

And yet he had managed to sneak all the way here without any signs.

It was clear that he was no ordinary person.

Are you telling me youve been replaced by another?

Im here to recruit you. Lets work together comfortably.

work? What are you talking about? Are you crazy?

Molly had been stopped from retrieving the treasure, and in frustration she unleashed her magic.

Dark green magic.

Guh!

!

A heavy pressure filled the area, the nauseating magic stifling the mouths of Kageha and Lilia who tried to warn Crono about the dangers of the [Swamp Demon].

They hoped for the best, but after seeing the power of the Swamp Demon, they felt an inexplicable uneasiness. A certain corner in their hearts wished that he hadnt come.

The fear and impatience in their hearts was growing every second.

Whoever you are, I cant deal with you right now. Even if you are a rare guest. Solnada-

Hmm, then The Demon Lord said in front of the demons who were becoming more and more eager to kill him.

The demons waited with bated breath, expecting some weak words to come out of the overwhelmed Crono.

He folded his arms over his sword, pretended to think, and then said with a fearless smile, Why dont you come and get me? Ill take care of both of you at once.

The air in the swamp became tense, as if it had frozen over.

Attention!

According to the schedule, there will be a battle next. After that, this phase will end in 3 episodes.

Lergas clothes may be changed to a maids uniform. I may also add some gags to this story later.

Thats it for now.
