Becoming a magician in another world

"Is there a demon king!? Is there a demon king!?"

What surprised me most about Ur's words was Sam.

It has been several years since I was reincarnated into another world, and I have never heard of the story of the Demon King.

No, the same goes for heroes. A few days ago, Yuto Hayama called himself a hero, but strictly speaking, he is not a hero.

After all, he was just treated as a hero in the Kingdom of Orkney.

To Sam, the other world is a fantasy full of magic, but unfortunately, he has never seen any other races, not to mention the Demon King and the Hero, except for the elves and dwarves.

The only exception is the dragon. If it is a dragon, I will encounter it countless times and fight with the Dragon King. Perhaps because of this reason, although I am not cautious, I am surprised and excited about the existence of the Demon King.

Ur showed an incredulous expression towards Sam like that.

"What are you talking about? The Demon King has many people."

“How many people are there!?”

I don't know how many times I've been scared today alone.

Ur's resurrection and the existence of the Demon King are indeed beyond the permitted range.

"Ah, so that's how it is. Sam knows nothing about the situation in the western part of the continent. Although there are things I didn't bring up, I think it's too early to tell. Oh, forget it. Let's talk about it later."

"Ah, yes."

(Well, one thing is clear, I am still from the mainland. In other words, I cannot claim to be strong)

"Well then, Your Majesty, let's get back to the point."

Ur said, and began talking to Clyde again.

"I have believed since my lifetime that the purpose of the people of Najaria is immortality. In fact, I understand that even if immortality is difficult, they want to extend their lifespan by transforming from humans to other races. Alas, it seems that the altar necessary for the transformation has been shattered into pieces."

"Even in our country, the foolishness of immortality is well known. People possessed by desire are assisting the people of Najaria. Although there is a little damage, they have been swimming until the emergency."

"It seems so. However, if the purpose is to extend life, there is no need to attack the Sky Kingdom. I heard that there is a guy who originally lived in this area, and using this as a cover, the people and confidants of Najalia are secretly moving for their original purpose. That is, the resurrection of the Demon King."

Sam had doubts, so he asked timidly.

"Um, why are you targeting the Sky Kingdom? It's the same with immortality, and it doesn't matter if it's the Demon King."

"Sam, it's not insignificant. In the Sky Kingdom palace, the demon king's body is sleeping."

"what!?"

It was Clyde who answered Sam's question.

"Oh my, how could this happen, Your Majesty! In this country, is there a demon king in the palace?!"

Shocking facts.

It turned out to be a corpse. I never dreamed that the Demon King would be so close.

"Sam, I'm sorry you kept silent. This is not something that can be said openly easily. The only people who know about this are the kings and the people of Duke Ignaz's family who have passed down this matter from generation to generation."

"And Günter, too?"

"I'm sorry, Sam."

Günter looked embarrassed.

Although he has a preference between Sam and Ur, I seem to be able to tell the difference very clearly and have been hiding the secret of the kingdom until now.

"Günter is in charge of setting up the barrier in the Demon King's tomb."

"Indeed, Günter's barrier is very strong. Um, why is it only the Ignatz family? If there are more partners, they will not fall behind the people of Najalia, right?"

Clyde shook his head at Sam's question.

"That's impossible. In the past, I have sought assistance from other clans. However, there were many people who were bewitched by the Demon King, those who wanted to be resurrected at the time, and those who were colluding with him. In the end, I came to the conclusion that keeping it secret is the best." "Alas, there is nothing I can do. That's how nobles are."

"In fact, even though they don't know the existence of the Demon King, there are still nobles who want to be immortal and betray their country, even though they are not very credible."

"But, Your Majesty, if you come here, you will tell us everything, right?"

Ur looked directly at Clyde.

The king nodded.

"You are already parties involved. Tell me everything. Follow me. I will take you to the devil's tomb."
