Chapter 528.2
As the king of a country, Reid had participated in and won a major war, his interactions with other races had increased significantly, and because of the air route connections by airships, new diplomatic relations with countries with which he had no direct connection were born, and because he had continued to handle these important matters, it appeared that he was unable to resign from his position as King.
The next King had already been chosen and was gradually taking over the reins, but it appeared that Reid sees no way out until the current situation settles down, and I heard that he was confirmed to remain King for at least a few more years.
He was laughing earlier when he told me that he was happy to have more achievements, but from my point of view, he would only be increasing his workload.
“I just want to retreat to the Demon Forest now and go back to being just a Demon Lord and relax. I still think human society is too troublesome.”
“…As for me, I think it’s more amazing that you can say that. How resolute you are to choose between being an Emperor or a Demon Lord.”
“It’s surprisingly nice to spend time in the Demon Forest.”
“That sounds great.”
King Allysia and I laughed at each other.
“For now, let’s get down to business. –Tell me, what devious scheme you two have in mind right now.”
“Oh, you’re the only one I can ask for this. You are human, you are the King, and you are royalty, so we need your help.”
I then told him about the plan I was working out with the Demon King.
For me to stop overworking as an emperor… I would have to make this plan work no matter what…

“There is no end to the turmoil in this country, right?”
Although he suffered a serious aftereffect from the war, which left him unable to use magic ever again, Renaugil continued to be active in the underworld as the Demon King’s right-hand man.
After the terrorist attack targeting the King, he had once again infiltrated the Rogard Empire, commanding his men to gather information for the next operation, in other words, to conduct an intelligence war.
His current base of intelligence gathering was the entertainment district in the capital of the Rogard Empire.
This place where greed gathers had become a perfect place for someone to play a trick, with conspiracies swirling in various places due to the incomparable amount of money flowing in since other races started visiting.
Therefore, Renugil was not only working with his men, but he also infiltrated one of the high-end casinos in the entertainment district to keep an eye on his target.
The target was someone who was determined to be [Guilty] by the Demon King.
First, let the target swim, but depending on the situation, the target was told to be secured.
And as the target began to move, Renaugil also moved – reaching for the knife he had in his pocket.
One maid caught his attention.
She was dressed like a casino waitress, a plain, unassuming maid with a presence so subtle that if you took your eyes off her, you might not be able to see her.
The other woman’s eyebrows twitched at being noticed, but her expression remained smiling in a manner befitting a casino’s maid as she moved closer to him.
–I would like my subordinates to learn how to eliminate their signs like that person. Were they really agents of the emperor’s organization?
“Is she a member of [Arbent]? I’ve heard about them from the Demon King.”
“Our chief has entrusted me with information. First, he asked me to give it to you.”
“Okay, let’s hear what he has to say.”
Their conversation was lost in the noise of the casino, and no one could hear them.
