Swoop.
The sound of papers turning slowly.
gulp.
Reize gulped and watched the scene.
‘What were you looking at’
don’t have faith
The pile of papers Reize handed over to Louis were papers related to Terran finances.
Number games that you don’t even know what the problem is unless you’re an expert.
A normal person would be annoyed just by looking at it.
still.
‘thank god.’
Reize was not an outsider in this area.
Since childhood, I have been paying attention to the family account with interest.
She learned what she could learn, and she was the secretary of the student council even when she was in Terran.
‘For now, let it go as it pleases… .’
Talk to Louis as soon as he loses interest in the papers.
When Reize, who had made such a strategy, saw Louis again.
Swoop.
The last page of that thick document was turning over.
“… … .”
Reize almost burst into tears for a moment.
Still, I prepared hard, but I thought you would pretend to see it.
Still, the author is the Demon King, and I shouldn’t expect much from him.
“I don’t know just by looking at it… .”
“Serious.”
Yes
Contrary to Reize’s dumbfounded reaction to Louis’ words, Louis said with a dry face.
“The support and aid itself is lousy.”
ah.
You will know that much.
“There is almost no sponsorship.”
All you have to do is look at the history of deposits in Terran, so even an outsider would know.
that… .”
When I was about to give a brief explanation about him.
There’s no way the Franz Kingdom would have left Terran like this, it’s embezzlement.
“… … .”
“There is enough support and aid coming in, but there are too many people intercepting it in the middle.”
no way.
“The dressing is also severe. Does this make sense for teachers’ wages in the first place”
percussion.
Louie throws a pile of papers.
Terran teachers say they’re idiots, but they don’t seem to be satisfied with just this much wages.
that is… .”
you will step out… .
“You’re taking care of yourself.”
“… … !”
“That’s why there is no sponsorship. I created a system so that teachers can take care of themselves and receive sponsorship to cover my wages.”
Hopefully not.
“Did you understand all of that”
Louis obviously understood that thick pile of papers.
“But fortunately, the ones who died this time were especially messy. No wonder. As long as I’m the principal… .”
shit.
“Because I would have thought I would die anyway if I was caught doing something like that.”
This man, no, this Demon King.
‘He understood better than me.’
It’s not just a pile of paperwork.
It is no different from a gigantic fraudulent deception.
It’s easy to recognize that you’ve been cheated, but it’s difficult to unravel the complex twist of the thread to be determined and deceived.
Being able to tell who was a cheater, especially when everyone was pretending not to be a cheater, was another domain.
that.
gulp.
Louis did it casually.
“… … .”
Reize with a blank face.
“So, Terran is such a mess. Do you want to brag to me”
ah… !”
Only then did Reize realize what he wanted to say.
“At this rate, the academy will be ruined!”
It would have been better if I had understood.
“It’s not about disqualification from the academy or anything like that! Bankruptcy!”
bankruptcy.
It is said that there are many powers in the world, but if you were to pick the scariest among them, many would pick financial power.
Money is one of the forces that move the world.
Even the strongest of sword masters can be moved by money, and the title of a noble who can seize power can also be moved by money.
Money is a force that cannot be ignored.
“Moreover, you brought the dwarves, and they made the budget.”
Pass another document to Louis.
Hmm.
At first, Reize thought the dwarves would work for Louis for free, but it wasn’t.
-What is this
Reize looked at the documents brought by the dwarves.
– This is the budget. Guest.
I was amazed at how thorough they were.
“The budget they’re asking for is equivalent to three years of Terran budget!”
At this rate, there was no point in bringing the dwarves.
Terran seemed to be getting a little better, but he was caught again.
In fact, it was only natural that it would not be so easy to pull out a wagon that had fallen into the mud.
If it had sunk too deep, even the coachman’s seat had been submerged.
‘Actually, that wagon should be abandoned.’
to save it.
Reize’s eyes lit up.
‘There is a way.’
Only one.
A way to get rid of this whole situation.
Devil… No, Terran is also important to the principal, right”
I was already feeling it.
Although he may not think of Terran the same as he or other students.
“Terran is, at least temporarily, the principal’s territory and a place for betting!”
He has a reason to protect Terran.
so.
sparkle.
Reize’s eyes shine.
The perfect solution to all situations.
‘The Demon King’s Warehouse.’
Countless loot, long years, and even rare materials and weapons.
Moreover, Louis Chambell was said to have lived the longest among the demon lords.
Treating the dwarves casually.
‘If you look at Hellebron’s ornaments… .’
I can’t even imagine how much money I could get from selling just one.
so!
“The warehouse… .”
“Dismissed.”
Louie’s answer came so quickly and clearly.
A dull expression.
A face with no emotion.
Those depthless eyes made me feel fear as if I was looking into an abyss.
Seeing that Louis look directly at Reize.
rattle.
Reize felt his body tremble involuntarily.
‘Please open the warehouse!’
That was what Rayzee wanted to say.
Louis Chambell, the warehouse of the demon lord of chaos.
If you remove just a part of it, all of these problems will be solved.
No, it’s not just a Terran problem.
Learn from many academies.
– The Demon King’s warehouse is enormous.
About the treasures piled up in the Demon King’s warehouse.
In fact, because of that, many kingdoms were frantic about raising heroes.
If the hero succeeds in defeating the demon king, the hero has all the rights the demon king had.
Also on it.
– The hero’s country has some rights.
The country devoted and invested a lot of resources until the hero was born, so the investment was to be recovered.
For the same reason, countless kingdoms on the continent spare no investment to create a good academy.
The academy that produced the hero who subdued the demon lord received huge donations from nobles across the continent and some rights according to the rewards of the battle.
– The academy also gives a certain portion of the proceeds to the country to which it belongs.
virtually.
– It’s a hero business.
A Terran teacher criticized the hero’s subjugation of the Demon King as a heroic undertaking.
Well, I didn’t mean to talk about this.
One thing that was stuck very deep in Reize’s head.
-Then, which demon king is the richest
It was a question that the Terran teacher, who was called a geek, asked students who were not interested in class.
The question that was the reason he was called a geek and also the reason he became a Terran teacher.
‘Because he studied the devil’s wealth.’
Compared to other Terran teachers, it was a normal and beneficial study, but it seemed that it caused inconvenience to the higher up.
If the demon king’s wealth were revealed properly, it would be the same as revealing the proceeds they took.
Anyway, that’s what the teacher said then.
– He is the Demon King of Chaos.
Even if it is difficult to line up the other demon lords, it is easy to take first place.
The first place is the chaos demon lord, Louis Chambell.
– The longest-living demon king.
Life is the best means to accumulate wealth.
One of the oldest beings on the continent, the Demon King of Chaos, his life itself is no different from wealth.
-In addition, all animals and plants that can be found across the continent exist in the so-called land of chaos.
Another feature is the land of chaos.
In a place where everything exists in chaos, there is nothing that is not there, and the valuables among them must be piled up in Louis’ warehouse.
The voice of the teacher who preached how rich Louis was at that time is still clear.
-The Demon King of Chaos-! He is the richest man on the continent!
Let’s say
-It is not a problem that the world collapses with the power of the demon king of chaos! Beware the warehouse of the demon lord of chaos! If that warehouse is open-!
The entire continent’s economy would collapse, and with it the kingdoms would perish.
I was afraid to know it, but also curious to know it.
The Demon King’s Warehouse.
why me.
let it open.
“Should I take out my warehouse”
that… .”
You’re using too shallow numbers.
“… … .”
Ray’s face turned red.
In fact, the reason seems plausible.
‘If you don’t want to be ruined, you can even shake off your own money!’
Reize knew that it was tantamount to blackmailing him by holding Terran hostage.
If you want to open my warehouse, you’ll need a more plausible reason.
“Are you saying it’s okay even if the Terran ruin bet doesn’t work out… ”
no.
Louie says.
“Why do you think I have to open my warehouse to keep the terrans alive”
that… .”
“The Franz Kingdom and your family must exist.”
If it’s for Terran, aren’t you prepared to pour out everything
“If only I could! I want to!”
Ray also expressed his sincerity.
However… .”
Not all men are like himself, and Carl, and the King.
Most of them had already given up all hope, accepting that Terran was doomed.
The same goes for Kyle’s descendants, the Duke of Ardennes.
-Rayjae.
Always kind and warm, those people were also stopping Reize.
“Well, it must be the human circumstances.”
Louie gets up.
“But that’s not the only way.”
“… … ”
“He who takes shit, he who cleans it up.”
Louie’s body seemed to be getting bigger by the day.
“Why should they be different”
“… … !”
“They have to be the same.”
Louie stretches out his hand.
“If you poop, the poop has to be cleaned up. I intend to teach you the basics.”
what… .”
I felt it then.
pounding!
That Reize’s heart was beating again.
Until now, Reize had thought that this was caused by fear of Louis.
But at this moment, I thought that maybe my thoughts were a little wrong.
maybe this
‘It can’t be.’
Expectation.
What would Louis do, and what kind of change would it bring
Could it be the thrill of such anticipation
‘no.’
suppress and deny
Then Louie’s voice came again.
“Not too long ago, I sang Hellebron, so I can’t sing the right ones, but… .”
shit.
He smiles and puts his hands down.
that’s it again
“There are just the right experts out there.”
space cutting.
The land of chaos and this principal’s office were reconnected.
open door.
Louie says towards it.
[come out]
command goes down
