Even the Demon King is worrying about another world today.

Let the other party go to the national treasury and take gold coins?

Although they had some doubts, the soldiers did as instructed.

Chido poked his head out of the palace and watched the Demon King leave. Only after confirming that the Demon King was gone did Chido run back to his throne and sit down.

"Phew..." Cheetah breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the Demon King didn't punish me. Otherwise, based on what those hellish 'colleagues' said, I would have been torn to pieces and fed to the fish by now.

078 Honest Dragon

"Th-that..." Kuro was still standing there, holding the short staff in his hands.

Kuro was born in a slum and knew very little about the relationships between nations, only that several countries were currently at war. However, the name "Zorro Empire" appeared frequently, suggesting it was one of the most active nations recently.

Based on the conversation just now, the man in front of them is the emperor of the Zorro Empire, and he seems to have some illicit connection with his master.

"Oh... hello." Cheetos nodded blankly.

If it were an ordinary person, Emperor Chido wouldn't even give them a second glance. But this person happened to be brought by the Demon King, and judging from the way the girl addressed the Demon King earlier, the two seemed to be master and disciple?

Even the most slow-witted Qi Duo was perfectly clear-headed at this moment.

This woman... the Demon King is very fond of her, he must win her over!

It seems to be called... Kuro, right? That's exactly what the Demon Lord called him just now.

"Miss Kuro, how can I help you?"

"Huh...?" An emperor, actually so polite? Chido's image in Clow Reed improved a bit. "May I ask who you and Mikayi are...?"

“Oh, I’m his subordinate,” the honest dragon said. “Lord Mikai is the Demon King.”

"Huh? The Demon King? That can't be right!" Kuro was surprised. "After all, just half an hour ago he was arguing with Miss Rabbit Ears over a few dozen silver coins and even made her cry."

"Hmm..." Qiduo fell into deep thought, never expecting that His Majesty the Demon King would have such a quirk.

Animal-eared girls... they're so nice... I want to try making one someday.

However, since it concerned the Demon King, Chido dared not ask any further questions or speculate.

So he decided to enthusiastically introduce their Demon King to this ignorant Miss Kuro.

"You don't know yet, do you? Our great Demon King, His Majesty Mikayi Garan! He is the man who stands at the highest point in the world! He is supreme, the culmination of all wisdom and power!"

There was no one else in the hall except for Kuro, and Chido spoke with immense excitement. He even stood up in his excitement.

It has to be said that Qiduo has learned quite a bit from Akman. His flirtatious flattery is even better than his teacher's.

Mikayi stopped in his tracks as he was about to step into the temple. He listened intently to Chido's flattery.

Hey! What the hell are you trying to teach my apprentice?!

Mikayi entered the hall and gave the person on the throne a look.

Cheetos shivered and obediently sat back down in his seat.

I'm not going to get strangled, am I...? The Demon King's gaze just now... it looked like he wanted to strangle me...

The honest young dragon was once again frightened.

The royal soldiers behind him had already followed them in, so Mikayi couldn't use teleportation magic in front of the humans anymore. He patted Kuro on the shoulder.

"Let's go, Kuro, to the Lyon Empire."

"Oh... okay! Master!" Kuro jogged to catch up with Mikayi's pace.

"Can you find it? Where is the royal city of Lyon located?"

"Hmm, I roughly, roughly know..."

The two walked away talking, while Chido sat on his throne with a worried expression.

Lyon? What's so great about the Lyon Empire, Your Majesty the Demon King! Why don't you come visit my Zorro Empire more often! Honestly!

-

After a long night of flying, we finally arrived in the Lyon Empire from the Zorro Empire.

Although Kuro confidently claimed he could find it, he actually had no idea which direction the Leon Empire was located in relative to the Zorro Empire.

After giving some misguided directions, Mikayi realized that they were lost.

Mikael carried the sleeping Kuro to the airspace of the Lyon Empire. After seeing the prosperous main city, he chose to land in a forest not far from the main city.

If we don't land, we'll be shot down by the cannons on the tower!

Mikayi felt a wave of fear wash over him after his feet touched the ground. Just now, all those cannons had been aimed at him!

It truly lives up to its reputation as the largest empire in human history, with such tight security even at night.

But then again, isn't it a bit embarrassing for a demon lord to fly around on his own two legs all day? Maybe he should take some time to get a more impressive mount in another world sometime.

In the secluded forest, only the faint chirping of insects could be heard.

Pushing aside the branches obscuring the view, a glimpse of Lyon's main city comes into view.

An imposing concrete wall obscured the view inside, but judging from the brightly lit interior seen from mid-air, it was clear that even at night, the streets of Lyon's main city were bustling.

Lyon, the capital city at the very center of the Lyon Empire, shares the same name as the empire: Lyon City.

Located in the very heart of the empire's territory, this city is connected with all...

Like a human city-state, it is surrounded by towering walls.

This uniform architecture seems to be guarding against something.

Giants, elves, and dragons are all considered neutral beings, so their only potential threat is defending against monster invasions.

But with such weak monsters in this world, is it really necessary to build such high walls? —Although humans are weak too.

The Demon King Mikayi thought to himself.

With his unusual night vision, Mikayi emerged from the dark grove.

079 Lyon

The guards who were dozing against the high wall stood up straight with great displeasure when they saw the newcomers.

The parchment scroll provided by the Adventurers' Guild was very reliable; the guard only glanced at it briefly before having no further suspicions.

"Alone?" the guard asked.

"Huh?" Mikayi was taken aback and looked at the person in his arms.

Kuro had shrunk to the size of a kitten at some point.

Kuro's true form is extremely fragile; he is a kitten that has only recently been born. Perhaps being in Mikaela's arms made her too complacent, and the transformation magic was unconsciously dispelled, so Kuro has now become that little ghost cat again.

“Yes, that’s right.” Mikayi nodded.

The guard yawned as he pushed open the city gate.

Mikael hesitated slightly as he prepared to step into Lyon.

Such a strong... human scent...

A pervasive stench of fragrance, decay, sweetness, and lewdness filled the air. In the densely populated human city-state, even the devil's nose had lost its ability to detect it.

The colorful magic lamps constantly showcased the city's prosperity. Mikayi gently rubbed the kitten in his arms and walked to the other end of the street.

"Mmm~" The kitten in my arms let out a small meow and raised its dark little head.

"Oh, sorry, did I wake you up?" Despite saying sorry, Mikayi continued to pet the cat.

Kuro licked the tip of his nose, his round purple eyes shining through.

The black cat gently took Mika's fingertip into its mouth and licked it tenderly.

"What does it mean?"

The kitten's tiny mouth completely enveloped the index finger, and it wasn't until the licking turned into biting that Mikayi realized what was happening.

Oh, speaking of which, Kuro's body is like a kitten that hasn't been weaned yet.

This reaction suggests that the person is hungry.

Mikayi subconsciously touched his chest...

Wait... what am I thinking?!

Put your thoughts aside. Lyon's night market is quite lively; finding a milk shop here shouldn't be difficult.

The streets of Lyon are a maze of intersecting lines, so much so that even Mikaela, who created the second layer of the labyrinth of hell, was completely disoriented.

My footsteps stopped in front of a tall building, the first floor of which was a bustling restaurant.

He touched the bulging money pouch at his waist. Mikayi walked straight inside.

Although he told Neil Hawke that he only wanted 10 gold coins, when he finally saw the glittering mountain of gold coins, Mikayi couldn't resist taking a few more.

After all, the more money the better. This principle applies to any world.

When Mikayi entered the noisy area, he realized that this was not a restaurant at all, but a tavern.

This is truly a big city; even the taverns are built to look so grand.

Buying milk from the tavern was out of the question, so Mikayi turned to leave. A maid came running over carrying a tray.

"Sir, what would you like some?"

Mikayi stopped in his tracks.

Putting everything else aside, this maid has two sweet dimples when she smiles. What's more... there's a striking large tail wagging slightly behind her.

Ooh ooh ooh...

I can!

Mikayi chose a corner to sit down and opened the menu.

After ordering a glass of milk for Kuro, he ordered a beer for himself. That wasn't enough; with the big-tailed lady's smile, he added several more hot dishes.

Hmm... it's just because I wanted to try human food. Definitely not because I like kemonomimi (animal-eared girls)!

You're lucky to find milk on the tavern's menu.

The steaming cup of milk was the first thing served. Holding Kuro on his lap, Mikayi prepared to feed the little black kitten milk with his palm.
