Even the Demon King is worrying about another world today.

Mikayi raised his hand and rubbed his temples.

This guy's soul is just that of an ordinary dragonman. If you tear half of his soul off, he'll die on the spot.

Unlike the other apostles of Hell, they were born powerful, and even if their souls were split into multiple parts, it wouldn't be a problem. In comparison, Neil Hawke's soul was just an ordinary demi-human who didn't even qualify as a magical beast.

Even if this guy's soul isn't imprisoned in the Hell Chief Administrator, he wouldn't dare disobey the administrators of the Ninth Level.

“Neil Hawke’s situation is rather special; he’s too weak to be split in two,” Mikael said, rubbing his forehead.

"What?! In two halves!!" This was the first time Neil Hawke had ever heard of a soul split in two. At least, in his understanding, such a thing was impossible. He screamed, "Can a soul really be separated!?"

"Mmm..."

The black kitten woke up and looked around in confusion.

When she saw someone familiar, she leaped onto the Demon King's body.

Neil Hawke's enormous dragon mouth immediately closed on its own.

Seeing how much the Demon King cherishes that kitten, if I were to make a mistake right now, I'd probably lose my head...

Mikael's previously speechless expression towards Nielhawk suddenly softened, and he gently stroked the kitten's head.

"Are there any discomforts?"

"Meow~" A small black paw landed on Mikayi's face. It's worth mentioning that the paw's pads were pink.

Two pink paws stomped on Mika's face twice. To show that it was alright, the kitten jumped off Mika, its two tails sticking to his trouser legs, and circled around him twice.

"Meow~"

"It's good that you're alright." Mikayi smiled slightly.

Although I can't quite understand cat language, I can still guess what's going on in this state.

Kuro wagged his two tails, circled around Mikayi's legs a few times, and then ran straight down the steps.

Kuro's small stature was insignificant compared to the group of Hell Apostles. She ran down the steps and headed straight for the group of Apostles at the other end.

Not Neil Hawke's side, but Rene's side.

Kuro ran up to Reni and blinked his purple eyes.

I could sense that this person had cast their own healing magic while I was asleep.

"Meow~"

Kuro's shout was loud; she squinted and rubbed against Rene's leg, as if to express her gratitude.

Renee smiled, squatted down, and patted the cat's head.

You're welcome!

Renee can actually understand cat language...

Mikayi, watching this scene from the high platform, felt very gratified.

Akman shook her head helplessly when she saw the two people on the ground.

Since Reni has come to terms with it, it would be excessive for her to keep dwelling on Kuro's affairs.

The Demon Lord's seven days a week... I discussed this with Rene last time.

Akman smiled.

If you include Kuro, it's exactly seven days.

While men are said to need rest, the Demon King probably doesn't need it.

123 Meow Language [Bonus Chapter]

As was customary, the lord of the ninth level announced the end of the meeting, and Neil Hawke, clutching the veil, rushed back to the first level of Hell. He then used the teleportation array on the first level to return to the Zorro Empire as quickly as possible.

While running, he kept shouting things like, "Wifeies, I'm home!"

Mikayi suddenly felt that the Demon King's throne beneath his feet suddenly didn't seem so appealing anymore...

Mikayi glanced at Reni and Akman, then looked at Kuro in his arms.

"Speaking of which, did Hedis ask the academy for a few days off for me?" Mikael asked his homeroom teacher, Renee.

"He said you had an urgent matter to attend to and needed to go back to your hometown... so he applied to the school for a two-week leave."

What?! Does it really take this long to go back to my hometown?

Mikayi had forgotten that compared to his teleportation cheat...

Get up, it might really take a normal human that long to go back to their hometown.

Hell has no windows; the ninth level is almost entirely illuminated by the crystal chandelier overhead. Mikayi leaned back in his chair, staring blankly at the chandelier.

Half a month... nowhere to go.

Although there are still many unknowns in this other world waiting for him to explore, it is not safe to take Kuro, the kitten, on an adventure.

Speaking of which... we should let Chani mentor her. They're both magical beasts, and Chani, as a farmer, has a long history of raising ghost cats.

Kuro had absolutely no understanding of his own condition, neither his physical habits nor his abilities. He didn't even have basic common sense like 'not being able to drink milk'.

Mikael is only a half-baked expert in this area. He's good at teaching some dark magic, but if you ask him to explain the habits of magical beasts, he's completely incapable of doing so.

Monsters of the Ghost Cat's caliber usually possess inherited memories, and basic magic is innate to them. However, Kuro's soul is that of a beastman, and the original soul within the Ghost Cat had long since vanished, so Kuro has absolutely no inherited memories.

She should at least know about her situation...

Mikayi scratched Kuro's chin. Kuro closed his eyes comfortably, making a gurgling sound.

"During this time, go to the seventh floor and learn from Senior Chani about your physical condition. Kuro."

"Meow~"

Kuro can understand Mikayi's language, but her meowing left Mikayi completely bewildered.

But judging from her cheerful meows, I guess that means she agreed?

Chani ran up the steps and took the cat from the Demon King's arms.

"I've wanted to tell you this for a long time. Kittens are usually cared for by their mothers until they reach adulthood. Kuro was taken away by you before he was even weaned, and he can't even take care of himself. But seeing how much you love him, I can't just take him back by force."

Chani muttered to herself as she carried Kuro down the steps.

"Half a month, right? No problem. Come to me in two weeks to pick up the cat, Demon King."

Mikayi watched Kuro leave with reluctance, secretly wiping away a tear. She waved goodbye to Kuro briefly.

Kuro perched on Chani's shoulder, raising his yo-hey cat head to stare at the people on the steps.

"Meow~ Hmm"

If he could roughly understand the first two meows, he couldn't understand this melodious and long meow at all.

"It's alright, the Demon King wouldn't go around seducing those human girls. He's a Demon King after all, he wouldn't be bewitched by those kinds of looks."

"Meow meow..."

“He can’t even find the Elf Kingdom, how could he possibly go and peek at those elves?” Chani soothed the cat’s head. “Besides, the Demon King wouldn’t be attracted to the strange creatures of this world. Don’t worry~ Remember, he’s an invincible Demon King, how could he be easily poisoned by those girls?”

Mikayi's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed.

My knee hurts a little...

It felt as if I had been hit by two arrows in quick succession.

The gates to the ninth level of hell closed, and the hall returned to silence.

"My Lord Demon King, where are you going for the next two weeks?" Renee was the first to speak, asking eagerly.

“I’m not going anywhere…” Mikayi didn’t even have time to facepalm.

Because he frequently sneaked off to other countries to bring girls back, this Demon King had left a deep scar on Renee's heart. Renee was terrified that if she wasn't careful, the Demon King would bring back a few more girls to Hell.

The previous human princesses were fine, but this time there's a black cat too. If there are any more, the Demon King won't have enough time in a week!

“You still have classes to teach, so you need to take your teaching profession seriously,” Mikayi emphasized.

"Is the Demon King planning to go somewhere again?" Akman couldn't help but blurt it out. Although the Demon King used to enjoy locking himself in Hell to study magic, a process that typically lasted tens of thousands of years, lately he seemed to have lost interest in magic and instead focused on studying those alluring and shameless... those women.

Renee and Akman shared the same idea, their eyes filled with wariness.

You can skip class, but you must protect the Demon King!

“I’m telling you…” Mikayi said helplessly.

When did a demon king like him start being supervised by a woman?! And yet, he can't resist at all!

“I’m really not going anywhere.” Mikayi had originally planned to return to Hell for a while. “I’ve been feeling sleepy lately. I’ll try to figure out why, and while I’m at it, I’ll flip through my magic books to see if there are any spells to suppress it.”

To be honest, demons don't need to sleep. A demon has never had the habit of sleeping from birth.

However, Mikayi was a human transformed into a demon, so his soul retained human traits. It's just that for hundreds of thousands of years, he hadn't rested—not because the Demon King was particularly busy, but because he simply hadn't felt sleepy. After all these years of exposure, those human habits and routines should have long since changed.

So Mikayi was puzzled as to where this intermittent drowsiness of his was coming from.

Renee and Akman exchanged a glance. They both suspected the Demon King wasn't a competent subordinate… or rather, a future wife, in the way she should act.

“Then I will wait for the Demon King to return at Lanlin Academy.” Akman

He knelt down on the ground.

The Demon King nodded: "Go."

“My Lord Demon King…” Renee’s wings fluttered slightly behind her as she looked up at her Demon King, her eyes filled with reluctance.

"Be a good homeroom teacher." The Demon King smiled.

“They’re leaving, they’re leaving.” Akman stood up from the ground, grabbed Renee by the back of her collar and walked out the door. “It’s only been a few days apart, don’t act like it’s a big farewell. Don’t worry about it, little Renee.”

Renee pouted. She had no desire to be a homeroom teacher; she just wanted to live a shameless life with the Demon King in Hell.

Renee was dragged out by Akman, looking annoyed, and the door closed again.

After the two left, the hall finally fell completely silent, and Mikayi sighed as he looked towards the door.
