(EP.23)Angmar #3
023 – Peaceful Angmar #3
“Hey… !”
Imp Marmar sounded like a sick chicken the whole time he entered the court.
His gaze could hardly stay in one place, his limbs trembled and his tail even swayed from side to side like a car wiper.
“I’m in the Witch Queen’s court… !”
Marmar seemed terrified of Aira’s presence.
“help me! That’s scary! Get me out of here! You’re doing this to peel me off! To use my tail, my tail as a wand!”
Aira, who was walking around the court, replies sarcastically.
“You don’t have to be afraid of your queen. Instead, respect and love. And I don’t need wands.”
That seems to be the case.
I wondered what to do if Aira got angry at that imp guy’s rude attitude and flattened her head.
Fortunately, neither Imp Marmar nor Ai did exchange any further conversations. In the case of Aira, I think it was purely because of a lack of interest.
“Then, Tae-oh, I’ll give you a rest. Let you rest at the court too. Don’t go back to your house, because scorpions are coming out.”
“All right. I’m going to educate this friend a little.”
“Yeah, I think it looks a little silly.”
I’m sure you’ll hear everything from Ira being stupid. That must mean that the frightened Imp looks unsightly.
“hi.”
After a light greeting, Aira entered her residence.
All that was left was me and Imp Marmar, trembling like a wild lynx.
What should I do for him?
12 gold coins was a lot of money for me too.
It is money that can buy twelve people with just one gold coin, so it is said that this guy needs to be able to handle twelve times the amount of work that other people do.
From what he says, his intelligence seems to be quite high, but his stamina seems weak, so it seems difficult to make him work hard with his body.
Do you want to be good at paperwork?
I asked Imp Marmar, who was checking to see if Aira had disappeared.
“Is there anything you are good at?”
“Imps are all good! Because Angmar-sama made it by hand! Anyway, did you go to the Queen?”
“okay. Follow. I’ll show you what you need to do.”
I took the imp and headed to my office.
There were all kinds of documents, including the ones I had piled up, scattered all over the place.
“Then first, can you group the documents here by color?”
“It’s easy! But, you need to know that even if I do what you say now, I will never become your slave!”
Imp Marmar, who shouted confidently, began to organize the documents by rummaging through the papers. I was surprised that the work skills were better than I expected.
However, it seems that Imp Marmar was also surprised.
“The Slave Rights Promotion Act, the Defeated Demonic Estate Employment Act. Why are these related documents here? Maybe you are that Tae-oh gospel?”
“okay. Didn’t you tell me?”
The Imp looked at the drafts of the bill I had written, and trembled as if in great surprise.
Seeing him shivering continuously makes me nervous that he will not urinate soon.
The instruction manual for the imp that I received from the Torch Legion earlier said that the toilet was well covered.
All of a sudden, as I was rummaging through my pockets, the Imp raised both hands high and shouted loudly.
“Oh my gosh! It’s an honor to meet you! Tae Oh Gospel! You are the creator of these wonderful laws and ordinances! They are imply very correct laws!”
This sudden change in the atmosphere made me feel a little hard to follow. It reminds me of the nymph Beernoy I saw a while ago.
“The Slave Abuse Prevention Act is a wonderful law!”
“okay? Thanks for the compliment.”
“Of course, there are some things that need to be fixed or tweaked. For example, even the name slave itself is a bit out of date. It’s an impeccably incorrect name.”
Marmar has continued to express his opinions on the anti-slavery laws ever since.
Instead of the name slave, we should use the word labor assistant. The introduction of a kind of severance pay system in which a certain amount of money is given to those who quit after working for a long period of time.
I don’t know if I should call it clever or unusual.
“Okay, the paperwork is done!”
Still, the work seemed to be quite sloppy.
I have someone to help me, so the job gets done quickly.
It seems that the term labor assistant is worth a mention.
After work was over, I thought I would ask a question or something, so I sat Marmar in front of the chair and decided to ask some questions.
“I have a question about the Impran race. Are all the imps interested in things like the law or human rights like you?”
“Mostly! It’s different from the nymphs who don’t work and play while living on government subsidies and aid fund subsidies. The Imp Sisters have different interests, but in general, we value work.”
“Well.”
“Some conspiracy theorists say that we imps descended from nymphs. That’s nonsense! Because we imps were specially forged by Angmar!”
“Five.”
oh oh I opened the dictionary, listening to the answers in moderation.
This is an encyclopedia created by a sage called Pacurites, and it was a treasure trove of common sense and knowledge that I needed to live in this world.
I found the imp in the item and my eyes read it down.
「Imp: A noisy goblin. He deceives people with all sorts of clever remarks. They are originally from the nymphs, the fairies of nature. Demon King Angmar remodeled his subordinate nymphs.”
That’s right.
“As a being that originated from a nymph, it doesn’t do much harm to people.
Rather like nymphs, their hair. Fingernail. Body fluids are used as precious magical materials, and a wand made from an imp’s tail is a very expensive tool.
Although nymphs are legally protected. Imps who have become items of monsters do not receive legal protection.
As a result, at the time of writing this article, it has been overfished more than necessary and is classified as an endangered species.”
Aha.
This guy is like the dark evolution of a nymph.
“More than that, you, I feel a strange energy! I have the same energy as my sisters.”
“okay? Maybe it’s because I’m a harp nymph.”
“Half Nymph!?”
Marmar shouted as if surprised.
“It’s such a strange race!”
I don’t think that’s what you’re talking about-. I wanted to say that, but I held back.
“Anyway, it’s an honor to meet you, Comrade Tae Oh Gospel! How lucky I am to have an impeccably right person like you in this lost court!”
“comrade… , yes what good So, what do you mean by being impeccably correct from before?”
“Literally! It’s impeccably good to look at!”
“Is it politically good?”
“Yeah, say so. Politics is another name for an imp.”
That’s right.
I quickly added an entry for the imps in my head.
Imps, as sister races of nymphs, aren’t as smart as they think – the same thing.
Anyway.
A newly acquired slave unintentionally… , no, I was glad that the labor assistant didn’t seem to hate me.
Rather, this guy was on the side that favored me.
Is there anyone who likes my ideas, not my money, my power, or my status?
It was only a small amount, but it felt rewarding in its own way to be praised for the work I had done so far.
Because I thought that the things I did were meaningless.
* * *
“So, we are all afraid of Queen Aira. It’s like looking at a black hole with no end in sight.”
Marmar talked nonstop until I finished all the work in the office.
It hurt my ears a little, but it wasn’t too bothersome as there was quite a bit of information I was hearing for the first time.
“I have no choice but to follow the current Angmar. Since there is no way, we have to adapt and live.”
“I see.”
Ogre Gorgor.
Imp Marmar.
Like the two above, in this Angmar Kingdom, there are actually quite a number of monsters living among the people.
Being intelligent also means that we can live together.
Among such beings, animals that resemble humans, at least with arms and legs, are called ‘humans’.
Of course, it is certain that their treatment is not good.
They are the servants of the old demon king Angmar, who have fallen into ruins and prisoners of war.
This world is not easy enough to send a warm hand to such beings. Non-payment of wages is the default, and if you don’t like it, it’s fast enough to be burned at the stake.
Thanks to that, for me, the existence of such monsters felt like a time bomb that could explode.
Since the disgruntled monsters are causing intermittent riots like Gorgor, problems are occurring all over Angmar… .
If such incidents continue and Angmar’s manpower and resources are consumed, it is only natural that the national power will slowly decline.
So I wanted to make a law against discrimination against monsters.
However, should it be said that the owners of the labor assistants who tasted their cheap labor were in a position where they were unable to push forward with the fierce opposition to the Demonic Human Rights Act?
Right away, even if Imps, ogres, and other monsters belonged to ‘humans’ such as humans, elves, dwarves, and nymphs, there was considerable opposition.
Because the owners just laid down in front of the court.
-If you give a monster the minimum wage, small and medium-sized owners like us will all die!
-Everyone, let’s all lie down-!
As he was thinking about that time, Marmar snorted.
“But we also have hope. One day, savior Angmar will appear again on this earth. All creation will create a peaceful and equal world.”
Imp Marmar spoke like a warrior and clenched his fists.
The savior’s belief in the Demon Lord Angmar is a common form of demons.
The Ogre Gorgor also said that the only king was the Demon Lord Angmar.
What is it that makes them loyal to the demon lord who has already died? Simply because of the story setting?
Thinking that maybe there might be a hint to control the demons there, I asked Marmar.
“Why do you think Angmar is coming back? As far as I know, I’ve heard that four families worked together to tear him to pieces and burn his corpse to mutilate him.”
The wise Tarantera family.
The brave Lioness.
The free Belhawk family.
The pious Draco family.
In this way, the four great families united and rebelled, and the Tarantera family, who succeeded and achieved the most achievements, succeeded to the throne through an agreement.
This is a story that has been revealed to many people so far.
However, I thought that the demons might know something more.
Imp Marmar said muh-huh, casting darkness over his face.
“King Angmar is back. you’re not dead yet This is the proof. Long live Angmar.”
sh-.
Imp Marmar moved his hand towards the air. It looked as if he was ‘manipulating’ the empty space.
I know well what that means.
“Oh my God, Marmar, do you have a system?”
“okay. It is a power granted only to Angmar-sama’s servants.”
“Oh oh… !”
I felt a kind of shiver.
it’s a system

Come to think of it, there was such a thing.
The original novel ‘Villain Hunter’ was quite popular.
However, there was a big difference in likes and dislikes because of the setting that was criticized for being expedient.
It was often called the status window.
level. skill. A system in which titles, etc. are listed.
At the time, I was also a very easy-going person, so I skipped over the parts where the letters came to mind without reading any.
When it came to this situation, I really hoped and hoped that the status window would appear on me as well.
Of course, that’s not with me right now. If there was, it would twist the story. f**k off.
Anyway, Marmar had a status window.
Marmar said as if mimicking, moving her hand towards the air.
“This is made up of only Angmar-sama’s unique magic: revelation, foresight, and enchantment magic. The existence of this means that Angmar-sama lives somewhere.”
Is it unique magic?
In my head, the knowledge of the encyclopedia is lined up.
“If it’s a unique magic, are you referring to the individual magic possessed by wizards of the 5th or higher rank?”
“right.”
By analogy, each unique manhaena devil fruit. It’s like breathing. Was it something like a special technique unique to wizards?
Marmar continued.
“Honestly, it has to be about 5th rank to be called magic. Below that, it is no different than the deceit of thugs.”
“That’s right.”
Are those from 5th rank or higher a wizard?
With that in mind, there are probably fewer than ten people in this world who can be called wizards.
Marmar said.
“By the way, Angmar-sama was the first and last to reach the 10th rank, the unparalleled sorcerer. The king of wizards. I really drank… ! He also had three unique magics… !”
If that’s the case, I know.
His power, which reached the tenth rank, literally blasphemed and twisted the rules of the world. It went beyond magic and unfolded like a kind of power.
That overflowing power eventually left a huge rift in the world.
In many ways, it’s a huge crack.

Could it be the effect of the rift that caused me to fall into this strange world?
Marmar said as his thoughts were tailing their tails.
“If I said you were a half-nymph. I would be able to accept Angmar-sama’s blessing. Can I help you?”
“Is that possible?”
“okay! For some reason, Imps and nymphs have a lot in common. Maybe it’s because the nymphs are a species trying to imitate our superior imps.”
12 gold.
I was thinking of throwing it away.
I felt like I had an unexpected gain.
