Chapter 44: The Part-time Demon King

Apartment "VillaΒ· Room 201 of Rosa Sasazuka.

The rent is only 45,000 yen, and there is no key money deposit or guarantor. The 60-year-old Santsubo room does not have a bathroom, but there is a toilet in the room......

Compared to other options that can't afford to pay the rent at all, although the conditions here are a little worse, but the demon king Satan named Maao Sadao and the demon generalissimo named Shiro Ashiya can only condescend for a while.

So even though they were said to be so ugly, since they couldn't introduce other places, they had to live here.

It's not without merit, for example...... Is the surrounding environment quite quiet?

The stucco on the walls was mottled, the roof tiles were missing, the rain pipes clinging to the roof were covered in rust, and even the stairs leading to the second-floor corridor were crooked. I don't feel the smell of the inhabitants here, so I'm afraid all the rooms are empty.

So it's no wonder it's so quiet.

"This, this apartment ......"

"Ah, well, even I can see it."

The two of them spoke in demonic language, and even those who didn't know much about the world could tell that it was an old and ridiculously poor building. What's more, since all the houses here are empty, doesn't it mean that even the humans of this world don't want to live there?

It's a pity that although the two of them were kings and generals who once stood at the apex of the Demon Realm and held the highest positions, they were only fleeing at the moment.

Not only does it not have the magic to open the "door", but it also has the power to override the human beings in this world. In other words, if you want to continue to live, you must live by the rules of human beings in this world.

Although for the Demon King and the Demon Generalissimo, following the rules of humanity is tantamount to trampling on their self-esteem, they are currently facing the harsh reality that if they don't work, they will have nothing to eat.

Therefore, even such a dilapidated place can only be sheltered temporarily, and they have no room for pickiness at present......

……

……

"They're here, it's right to buy this place in advance......"

Standing at the end of the street where the dilapidated apartment was located, Mu Xiu held the thin stack of lease contracts in his hand, and behind him was the staff of the real estate agency just now, driving away.

The illuminated street was still cold at this time, and it was also very deserted, except for the staff of the real estate agency who was rapidly moving away, and there were basically no other pedestrians or vehicles to be seen.

In addition to the street lights, there are basically only apartments in the vicinity "VillaΒ· Rosa Sasatsuka's room 201 is lit up.

"Because this was originally part of the plan to renovate the city, it is a semi-abandoned area, so people in the neighborhood have moved out one after another."

Wearing a plain white petal hair ornament and a delicate silver long-haired girl, she stood quietly on this street where the lights couldn't shine, looked at the figure of someone in front of her, and said in a gentle and mature tone like everyone's lady.

"However, the reason why the construction has not started is that this is actually a place deliberately set aside in the urban plan to refresh the source of supernatural disasters, and if it is rebuilt, there is no reason to prevent the increase in the flow of people here."

For an international metropolis, renovation and renovation are always underway, generally in order to rationalize the city.

But in fact, if you are careful, you will find that some places, such as abandoned construction sites, dangerous areas, etc., will not change for a long time, and the government is indifferent to this - not really inaction, but deliberately.

According to the direction of the spiritual power flow of the leylines, and the intersection points where various branches and veins converge and undulate, it is possible to calculate where on the ground there is a greater chance of attracting evil spirits or supernatural phenomena. Therefore, the government can do its best to prevent these places by operating by various means and deliberately vacating them.

"Of course I know that, but why did you ......come here?"

Mu Xiu asked in a strange tone.

"Because these areas are generally not under the name of the official organization, otherwise it will be easier to attract attention if they are too concentrated, so they are all in charge of the various exorcist families in the spiritual industry, and this is the area that the Isayama family is responsible for."

Isayama laughed playfully, "After all, generally speaking, this kind of dangerous area actually does not allow outsiders to buy real estate, Lord Mu Xiu, why do you think it was so easy to approve all the formalities at that time?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Is that so? I really haven't paid attention to it......" Mu Xiu sighed, "No wonder I actually met you on the way here, I thought it was purely a chance encounter." ”

"Chance encounter, what a beautiful word, but it's a pity that the little girl's transfer procedures will not be until the next school year!"

The girl named Isayama showed a faint smile, "But I want to know more, what is so special about those two people that makes you value Mu Xiu so much?" ”

As if he had heard something very remarkable, Mu Xiu was silent for a moment, and then grabbed the lease contract in his hand and shook it gently.

Green smoke began to rise from a corner of the paper, and after a few moments the flames rose out of thin air, burning silently, emitting a distinct ray of heat. Mu Xiu didn't care about the flames burning on his hand, and he still didn't let go of his pinched fingers.

A few seconds later, a quaint piece of parchment reappeared in the flames, with strange patterns on all four sides, and the text in the middle had completely changed.

It has nothing to do with the rental contract at all, only the handwriting of the two names on the sign below is still clearly preserved on it.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Keenly aware of some strange restraining force attached to it, the face of the silver-haired demon exorcist girl who understood it became a little exciting, and she stretched out a white slender index finger in distress and pointed to the parchment in Mu Xiu's hand:

"It's ...... What kind of contract or something? ”

"Yes." Mu Xiu admitted calmly, "If it wasn't for this, why would I go and get such a rental contract in person?" ”

"This is already ...... Fraud, right? ”

Isayama glanced at the other party's face curiously, showed a puzzled expression, and asked cautiously.

"Miss Hades, you have to know that as long as you don't get discovered, it's not a crime, this is the experience of a certain evil god Lori." Mu Xiu smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said this with the posture of a senior teaching a junior's life experience.

Although purely based on the information of this world, Isayama is a year older than him.

Evil god Lori? So what?

The silver-haired exorcist girl frowned, her expression unconsciously became a little complicated, she didn't even understand what the other party was saying, how could she get closer to the other party in this way?

Judging from the situation of those two demons, no matter how much they keep to themselves in this world, it is impossible for them to really be indisputable. Even if they don't cause trouble, they will come to the door on their own initiative when they are in trouble-

However, it seems that there is a whole year as a buffer period, so you should not worry about it for the time being.

After all, the demon king, who is busy working all day to make ends meet, has no way to conquer the world, and the beggars who are poor and hungry and cold every day are not qualified to tell poetry and distant places.

Mu Xiu is doing this now, just to be on the safe side. At least when those two demons are still in this world, and they still have the identities of "Maao Sadao" and "Shiro Ashiya", they can use this contract in his hand to restrain them.

"By the way, you don't seem to have used that killing stone yet?"

Mu Xiu rolled up the parchment paper neatly, and while thinking about the question, he replied casually to Isayama.

Although he only glanced at it casually, he could be sure that the exorcist girl in front of him had not changed much compared to before, whether it was the strength of her spiritual power or her mental state, and there was no breath of killing stones on her body.

"Yes, Lord Muxiu." Isayama was slightly stunned, but seeing that the other party didn't seem to plan to tell her about the two of them, she also cooperated to change the topic.

"The Killing Stone is a great murderous thing after all, and if you use its power directly without treatment, the end will generally not be too good."

"Is that so, then you can do it, and you don't have to return it to me in the future." At this time, Mu Xiu remembered what Yayun Zi had mentioned yesterday, and said with a sigh.

The task of collecting all the killing stones has also disappeared, and the reason for this is that Yakumo Zi extracted all the powerful demonic power inside the two killing stones and used them for the technique of the creation god-

So it was the birth of Yakumo Blue, and the result that the Killing Stone could no longer be collected.

"Hmm......" For a moment, Isayama showed a puzzled expression.

Mu Xiu didn't explain too much, but turned his head to look at the old two-story apartment in the distance with only one room lit up, and then turned around and walked away.

If nothing happens, Satan, the Demon King who is now known as Mano Sadao, will probably start doing a variety of jobs, including traffic control at road construction sites, sorting products, and helping moving companies......

He even worked as a station staff member in charge of the entire team during the morning rush hour, almost across all walks of life, and probably had a lot of capital to negotiate with the debt housekeeper.

It wasn't until half a year later that he would work at McDanol's at Hatanaya Station, which was only about 10 minutes away, and became a full-time employee.

It won't even be until a year later that the working demon king will meet the brave man who chased him from another world and lost his power, and then the "plot" officially begins.

However, Mu Xiu didn't plan to follow this situation step by step, he still preferred to guide the situation as much as possible in the direction he wanted to see-

It's not about taking everything into your own hands, it's about influencing your fate to go your way.

However, he didn't have much clue about how to exert influence on this matter naturally, not that he couldn't think of a way, but that there were too many ways, and he didn't know which one to use for a while.

And some methods belong to the kind of assumptions, but it doesn't make sense to stop the demon king Satan from going to work at McDandald's, he can continue to go to KFC, Pizza Hut and other places.

It's just a change of place, which doesn't affect the direction of fate.

……

……

Until he said goodbye to Isayama Ming and Mu Xiu returned to his home in the moonlight and the darkness of the night, he was still entangled.

Penglai Mountain Huiye hasn't gone to rest yet, it seems that she plans to continue to stay up late and cultivate immortals, but now she is no longer playing stand-alone games, but chasing fans.

It's getting more and more otaku temperament, maybe it won't be too long, and she'll start pouring water on the forum, right?

Mu Xiu, who felt deeply guilty about this, felt that he had a great responsibility, so he was ready to persuade Her Royal Highness the princess. But just as he walked over, he saw the picture on the tablet that Kaguya was holding, and he was slightly stunned.

"Kaguya, what are you looking at?"

"Black Butler!" The black princess didn't raise her head, and replied casually.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Mu Xiu raised an eyebrow, as if thinking of something, and then he felt as if he had a brilliant idea.
