The Reincarnated Wizard Who Will Eventually Become the Strongest

"Hey, hey!"

When Sam shouted to Tomoya and was enveloped in light, he was not on the beach, but inside the room.

"Oh, what's that?"

"You're back, Samuel Scheidt."

In front of him was not Tomoya, but Zoe.

She was not wearing blue armor, but a navy blue one-piece dress, probably a loungewear.

"Oh, Zoe?　Well, then, this is the place."

"This is Lady Vivien's mansion."

"Wow, you didn't clear up the misunderstanding at the last minute!"

Sam was saddened by the fact that he had been transferred under the worst possible misunderstanding.

Zoe chuckled at this.

"From the looks of it, I guess you've made progress with him.

"Yeah. Yeah. He's a lot different from what I imagined."

"Surprised, aren't you?"

"I was surprised!　Why didn't anyone tell me about this!"

I had not expected, nor could I have expected, the existence of a demon king who had a lucky streak in him.

I was astonished because I had no prior knowledge, but I wished I had been told about Tomoya beforehand if possible.

I gave Zoe a somewhat reproachful look, to which she responded in a defeated manner.

"I'm afraid to say it!　The ordinary demon people cannot speak ill of the Demon King!　That skulking, know-it-all attitude is creepy, isn't it!"

"Well, that's true, but..."

"I've known him for a long time, and he's generally out of the public eye, but every once in a while he comes out and gets his dirty laundry done!　From the demons I know, it's an object of fear!"

"Yeah, I'm afraid that if I meet them, I'll have a lucky break or something."

It's too scary to know that you're going to do something dirty and no one can avoid it.

It's also troubling that Tomoya has no malicious intent.

"It seems that you are safe. I thought you might come back crying from the humiliation!"

"That's the worst possible turn of events!　I'm not humiliated, as I should be!"

"Well, that's good to know."

I wondered what I was going through in Zoe's mind, but I was grateful because I knew she would still be worried about me.

"By the way, Vivian-sama, Mizuki and the others are..."

"It's already midnight, so I'm resting. Mizuki wanted to wait for you, but she was probably tired from the trip, so I let her rest."

"So Zoe has been waiting for you instead. Thank you."

When I thanked her, Zoe's white cheeks turned red.

"No, I was just wondering if you were being humiliated by Tomoya!

"Ha-ha-ha, I didn't do anything like that, but thank you."

"Hmm. Mizuki, Daphne, and Catherine took me on a tour of the city. I hope you had a good time."

That's great.

"Mm. You can look around tomorrow. I'm sure Mizuki and the others didn't see everything.

I'm looking forward to it."

I'm looking forward to seeing the city of the demon tribe ruled by the Demon King.

I'm excited at the thought that there might be something I haven't seen yet.

I feel like a child before a field trip.

By the way...

"Yeah?"

Zoe asked in a hard voice to Sam, who was still thinking about the city of the demon tribe that he had not seen yet.

"-Will you be the Demon King?"

Sam shakes his head, though surprised by her question.

"--No. I'm not going to be a demon king."

Hearing Sam's answer, she looked a bit mixed up.

Relieved, but also disappointed, were some of the emotions that could be measured only on the surface.
