How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!

Chapter 143 Welcome To The Hotel Royale

Rosavellt calmly watched the demon lord enter the carriage to leave for Trad. She truly wished she could come with him. She hates it when she is not near the demon lord to help him! But since he gave her the order to stay back, she has no choice but to obey. she would never defy him, instead, she will make sure that the castle is spotless when he comes back! Once the carriage rode away from the castle, Rosavellt turned and started walking into the castle. The moment she started to walk, all the other servants started to run back inside as well! No one even wasted a moment as they tried to make sure they were already working before she got into the castle! Rosavellt never says anything aloud but the maids always knew exactly what she wanted them to do and they know that she will punish them if they aren't doing it!

Lilith also rushed into the castle and started to clean as soon as Rosavellt started to walk. Lilith didn't want to be the one that serves the first punishment from Rosavellt since that person would suffer the most! Lilith was still wondering where Ophis went to. Floid made sure that Ophis didn't tell anyone in the demon world where she was going. Ophis was meant to be undercover in Uta so there was no way that Floid would allow her to tell anyone where she was going. What would be the point of being undercover if everyone and their grandmother knows where you are!?

Floid already thought about killing Travy since Travy was the only one that knew about Ophis but Floid decided not to. Travy was still useful and that imp didn't have the balls to try and betray or blackmail Floid using the information! So no one in the demon world knew where Ophis was and Lilith was left wondering where her friend went to. Did Ophis finally get thrown out of the castle? Or was she sent to get something from another demon town? Lilith shrugged nonchalantly as she thought this and she just decided to forget about it for now. She was sure that Ophis was fine. Ophis wasn't a fool and she could handle herself.

"Rosavellt!!"

A voice suddenly resounded across the entire hallway and Lilith flinched when she heard that the person was screaming for Rosavellt! Who is that fool that wants to die a painful death!? You are screaming at the head maid!? Lilith looked to the side and she waited for the person to come into sight and she finally understood why the person could shout like that when she saw her. Rizi was looking around while scratching her ruffled hair with one hand and Lilith thought Rizi looked like the walking dead!

Lilith never bothered to pay much attention to the chief inventor before, but right now, Lilith couldn't help but stare in wonder! Rizi had large dark circles under her eyes and her hair and clothes were a mess! Rizi has been inside her lab for so long that she now looked like a zombie! How long has she been inside that lab!? Has she even eaten anything in all these days!? Her eyes are sunken!

"Rosavellt!!"

Rizi shouted Rosavellt's name again as she walked down the hallway and a portal opened in the middle of the hallway to reveal Rosavellt. Rosavellt was already prepared to kill whoever it was that was shouting her name like that but once she saw Rizi she stopped dead in her tracks.

Rosavellt looked down at Rizi with wonder and curiosity. Lilith could tell that even though Rosavellt didn't show it, Rosavellt was also shocked by Rizi's appearance! Rosavellt never expected that Rizi would let herself go so much!

"Rosavellt! I can't find the demon lord! I searched his office and I didn't see him there!"

Rizi looked absolutely terrified! She has been searching for Floid for more than thirty minutes and she hasn't found him! She needed to talk to Floid! Throughout the time when she has been secluded in her lab, the only person that she has been talking to is Floid. Floid was like her link to the real world. Floid always made sure she ate her food and even made her sleep sometimes. Floid was the one that she spoke to when she was not able to figure something out and he would help her with it easily. But right now Floid was gone! Where is he!?

Rosavellt rose a brow before she looked up and waved her hand. All the maids in the hallway immediately ran out of the hallway and left the two of them in privacy. Lilith wanted to stay! She might be a maid, but first and foremost she was a woman! And as a woman, she wanted to hear about this gossip!

What sort of intense codependency has Rizi developed over the past few months that would make her like this!? She has been so dependent on the demon lord for everything and now that he was gone she was going insane!?

Once the maids were gone, Rosavellt looked down at the terrified Rizi with a gentler gaze as she spoke.

"Rizi, when last did you eat? Or sleep?"

Rizi but her thumbnail with intensity and she mumbled something incoherent. Rosavellt hit Rizi on the head and commanded her to speak up and Rizi sighed as she responded.

"A-About three days... or a week, I'm not sure,"

Rosavellt took a deep breath and then she took Rizi by the hand! Rizi jumped in shock and she looked up at Rosavellt! The only person that has touched her in the last three months is Floid so she was just a little surprised!

Rosavellt noticed the shock that Rizi showed and she spoke to her softly. Rosavellt usually forgets that Rizi was still basically a child when compared to the rest of them. Dwarves live for much longer than other demon races and they remain children for longer as well. In dwarf years, Rizi was barely eighteen! Rosavellt already received an order from Floid about Rizi and Floid trusted Rosavellt to take care of Rizi while he was gone.

Although Rosavellt wondered what sort of invention Rizi has been working on. Rosavellt knows that Rizi was once working on improvements for the capital but that was a long time ago. Recently, Rizi has been locked in her lab working on something else that only Floid knows about.

"Rizi, the demon lord is not around, he left for Trad to finish a business deal. He told me to tell you this, 'It's time to come back to the real world. You've worked hard'"

Rizi immediately stopped trying to get away from Rosavellt once she heard this and she looked down in embarrassment. Maybe she has been working for too long. She has been working on her inventions for so long that she didn't even know the demon lord was leaving. This time, when Rosavellt pulled her, Rizi didn't protest and she allowed herself to be taken through the portal.

"Can I have some ice cream with my meal?"

Rosavellt smiled a little when she heard this from Rizi. Rizi really was a child! Rosavellt gave Rizi a nod.

"Of course, Rizi. But only this time. Don't think I'll be this lenient next time,"

Rizi grumbled and Rosavellt ignored her as she just pulled Rizi through the portal.

.......

The demon lord's carriage arrived at Trad without any trouble and they stopped in front of the most exquisite hotel in Trad! The Hotel Royale. As a kingdom of Traders, the kingdom of Trad didn't have a very strong military presence! They were seen as the weakest kingdom when you consider their military strength against kingdoms like Uta and Aquinas! But even though Trad lacked military power, they had one thing that made them stand toe to toe with Uta!

Money!

Lots and lots of money!

Trad was made up of hundreds of traders that made millions every month and after they pay their taxes to the kingdom, the kingdom would make billions in extra revenue yearly! This money was used for the development of the kingdom and that was the reason why Trad was seen as the most beautiful kingdom out of all the three major kingdoms! The hotel that the demon lord carriage stopped in front of was three stories high and it covered more than fifty acres of land on all sides! There was a large building in the middle of the hotel and then hundreds of smaller buildings surrounding the main building! Those smaller buildings were various attractions that the hotel provides to its residents!

Immediately Floid stopped in front of the hotel, one of the hotel workers ran inside once he saw the golden carriage! The only people that could ride in a carriage like that were high-ranking members of one of the ten families in Trad and if Floid was a high-ranking trader then they had to show him the utmost hospitality! There was a long line of butlers that walked out of the hotel and stood to one side of the carriage. A red carpet was rolled out and it stopped at the carriage door.

Alucard came down from the other side of the carriage and he walked to the main door and opened it to allow Floid to come down. As people saw Floid they were dumbfounded!

This was the second time that Floid was coming to the kingdom but there were a lot of people who recognized him! They all remembered the handsome man that came to Trad for only one night and they could never forget his white hair and how he carried himself! Floid was wearing a simple white shirt and white trousers and he had a black jacket hanging over his shoulders. He walked forward with Alucard and Dragonnel flanking him on both sides and everyone gave a bow to welcome him.

Floid ignored them as he made his way into the hotel. These fools had no idea who they were bowing to. If they knew I was the demon lord, would they still show this sort of hospitality? This is my problem with humans. They are easily blinded by their greed. They deduced that I was rich and they immediately started to respect me. They don't even care to know how I made my money or who I am. Simpletons.

As Floid entered the main hotel with Alucard and Dragonnel, one of the main hotel managers immediately started to make his way toward them. The man was round and short but his attire was tailored in a way that still made him look regal. He came close to Floid and he extended both of his hands for a greeting.

"Hello, welcome to the Hotel Royalé. It's always a pleasure to welcome members of the upper echelon to our hotel."

The man finished his speech and waited for Floid to say something, but Floid just looked the man over before looking down at the outstretched hand that was in front of him. Did this man want to lose that arm? Why would you extend your hand to someone that you do not even know?

Alucard walked forward from behind Floid and shifted the man to the side calmly. The man was larger than Alucard so he was dumbfounded at how easy it was for Alucard to shift him. The man stumbled back and he barely managed to stop himself from falling over. Once he was out of the way, Floid kept on walking forward without even a glance back!

The man squeezed his hand in embarrassment and he swallowed to calm himself. He quickly made a signal to the other worker at the receptionist's stand! The man didn't care that he was embarrassed but he now knew that Floid was not a welcoming person! The man made a signal to tell the worker at the receptionist stand to treat Floid with the highest formality! Don't make any jokes and don't even fucking smile!

The woman at the receptionist stand would have seen the signal from the manager but she was too stunned to look at anything but the three handsome men walking towards her! Her hands were quivering and she could feel a blush creeping up her face as she stared at the three of them! They were like gods! What sort of man can have such perfect skin? What sort of man can have looks like this!? Is this normal!?

"Your best room,"

"Huh...?'

The woman suddenly snapped out of her trance as she realized that the three of them were already in front of her! The person that just spoke was Alucard and he gave her a disapproving gaze as she responded stupidly. Does he have to repeat himself?

The woman quivered under his gaze and her heart skipped a beat because the glare he gave her only made him more handsome! Who the hell are these men!? I've never seen anyone that looks like this in Trad before and I've been working here for years!
