“That’s the Demon King…”

“Yes, yes.”

“That’s Miss Celina, the most powerful maid in the castle…”

“Yes, yes.”

“That’s Mr. Rainbow Shell. He’s the leader of the Insectoids…”

“Yes, yes.”

The five fairies introduced the leaders of the Demon King’s Territory to a little fairy in the morning court meeting in a low voice. It seemed that this was the representative of the wild fairies and needed to familiarize themselves with the matters of the Demon King’s Territory as soon as possible.

“What about that human?” This wild fairy asked, and the human she was talking about was naturally Ira.

After all, there was only one human in the entire morning court meeting… Lich, human, and vampire. The fairy could tell them apart.

“He’s Lord Ira…”

“He’s very powerful…”

“Good person…”

“He can make pudding…”

“…”

Although he did not know why the fairies called him a powerful good person who knew how to make pudding, Ira did not care too much about this. Instead, he listened to the reports of the other leaders.

“Yesterday, Ira gathered us to eliminate the huge beehive. The huge bees occupied the residence of the non-Demon King’s Territory fairies and have been completely eliminated. We’ve also made good use of the Queen Bee. Does anyone need the materials of the huge bees?”

The black-flame Headless Horseman reported this content. Although many people knew about this, Satan Leaf was also there at that time. The corpses of the huge bees that had been dragged back by the Headless Horsemen’s warhorse were already piled up there, and the materials had all been plundered.

However, now, they still had to mention this and tell the other colleagues who might not know… Although the red tape was not popular in the Demon King’s Territory, this was still a necessary step of acknowledgment.

They had to at least report at the morning court meeting.

“We all saw it.”

The Black Knight let out a calm voice. He nodded at Ira seriously and said, “Thank you for saving the little fairies. I’ve always thought that any little demonic creature should be treated gently.”

The Royal Black Knight who spoke seemed to be a warm man with a gentle voice. He said to the Black Flame Headless Horseman, “I need some. You can use the remaining flesh and blood and the Black Knight can take the rest, but you can use them first.”

Celina noted his needs in her notebook and replied, “Understood.”

“I need one… No, two ~”

As Vera spoke, she, who had not participated in the war, raised her hand and suggested, “I need to use it for research. If possible, I hope you can distribute to me a portion of the body tissue of the Queen Bee.”

Celina said, “Sure.”

After she finished speaking, Mr. Rhyme immediately continued, but there was no need for his words, “I want the honey and royal jelly, if you don’t need them, send them all to the kitchen…”

Celina said, “It’s all cooking materials to begin with.”

“Reserve a portion as trade material?” The ghost girl asked after pushing her eyes.

She calculated and said, “Because I don’t know the exact value, leaving about ten for trade might be a good choice.”

Celina said, “That’s true.”

After the ghost girl finished speaking, be it the vampire girls or the constructs, they did not have any need for the huge bee…

From this, it could be seen that Celina was indeed not only an ordinary maid. Strictly speaking, since she was involved in the integration and distribution of resources, perhaps her position was more similar to the head maid.

“Then, Demon King?”

Satan Leaf, who was asked by Celina, nodded. Then, this matter was decided very quickly… If it was the Empire, such a topic would have to be discussed for at least three morning court sessions.

“…”

“The strategy of using the charm ability of the succubi on the beach to attract the shellfish to take the initiative to appear was very successful. Now, the shellfish have already begun to replenish themselves in the Demon King’s Territory and can be distributed to the demonic creatures… Although I still don’t understand why it’s called clam digging.”

Mr. Rhyme explained, and everyone knew about this when they were queuing for the barbecue. This matter should have been reported by Celina or the little demon, but Celina was taking notes now and the little fairy was leading the newbies.

Therefore, it was Mr. Rhyme reporting.

“Yes, I understand.”

Satan Leaf nodded.

“About diplomatic problems.”

The vampire girl said. She was clearly in charge of diplomatic relations between countries. At this moment, she felt helpless because she had to call the negotiation with the rebellious demonic creature “diplomacy”. She said, “The consecration team has already set off. They’ll arrive one after another this quarter.”

“At the end of this quarter, we’ll be able to see how many traitors there are. Demon King, what do you think?”

Satan Leaf, who was asked by the vampire girl, frowned. She was trying her best to think of how to deal with those traitorous races. She said, “At the end of the quarter, starting from the small territories that betrayed the surroundings, I’ll give an ultimatum.”

As she spoke, Satan Leaf hesitated and organized her words, “Tell them that if they continue to wander outside the jurisdiction, we’ll treat them as traitors. How about that?”

Satan Leaf, who was asking everyone’s opinion, looked in Ira’s direction.

“…”

—Hey, don’t look at me. Do you trust me so much? Why is the vampire looking at me too?

However, be it Ira, who did not know the situation in the Demon King’s Territory, or the others, they did not seem to have any objections. Therefore, the vampire girl nodded and confirmed the decree of Satan Leaf.

After that, it seemed that no one had anything to say…

At this moment, Celina seemed to have already sorted out the matters she had to deal with and participated in the morning court meeting again. She said, “If Lord Ira and Mr. Rainbow Shell don’t need the spoils of war of the giant bee, they should be rewarded.”

Yes, that was indeed the case. The two people who had performed very well in the previous battle against the huge bee needed to be rewarded. What needed to be noted was that the reward was not given to the Insectoids who had participated in the battle, but only to the leader of the Insectoids called Rainbow Shell.

Because the lower-level demons were all Satan Leaf’s assets, no matter how outstanding their battle merits were, they had only completed their duty… Such a system had its benefits and costs.

“…”

However, Satan Leaf’s pleading gaze was clearly saying, “Eh? Reward? Is there anything else we can reward?”

In fact, that was indeed the case.

“I don’t need it.” The Insectoid leader called Rainbow Shell said.

“Me too.”

Ira also expressed… In fact, the Rainbow Shell was the first to say that there was no need for a reward. In the Empire, it was equivalent to forcing Ira, but this was the Demon King’s Territory, and he did not need any rewards.

The Demon King’s Territory was already poor enough.

“Mr. Rainbow Shell’s salary will be doubled next month.”

After saying this, under the nod of approval from Rainbow Shell and Satan Leaf, Celina looked at Ira and suggested with a light smile, “We will establish an independent title and position—the [Demon King’s Consul]—for Lord Ira. He can freely participate in political affairs of the Demon King’s Territory.”

“…”

No one had any objections, because everyone knew that this was not a simple reward, and it could not even be said to have many elements.

Ira, who understood this, smiled helplessly, but he still nodded seriously—

“Okay.”
