72-Episode 38 High, Master Sama
The demon I used as my errand boy was named Mastima.
So I decided to call him "Matty".
"Matty, the bathroom is getting dirty, I need you to clean it up.
Hi, master.
Matty, I need you to wash these clothes for me.
Hi, master.
"Matty, go get some bread for lunch.
Hi, master.
He was very helpful.
'All you do is chores!?What the hell do you think the devil is?
His figure is still small.
This is because I dare to keep him in a state of deprivation of power.
In the form of an adult demon, it could cause a bit of a stir outside, even if it's inside the black academy.
With its current size, it was less likely to be scared.
Perhaps they would mistake me for a fairy or something.
I showed it to the trio of Kite, Kufa, and Colette, but they didn't seem to think it was a demon.
'Is this what Master used to do??You look pretty weak, but...
It's Kite who says that while looking at Matty like he's stepping on a price tag.
'd*mn brats!?Who the hell are you talking to--gasp!
He seems pretty high and mighty for a guy like you.
You??You've got a big fat pin on this guy!
Kufa chides Kite.
'Come on, Kite. You shouldn't torture your pet.
I'm not a pet!?You poor skank!
...Apparently you have no discipline, do you?
"Idideddeddeddeddeddedd!
Koofa picked up his head and Matty screamed.
''Kuufa-chan, the messenger is dying!?I'm sorry, Mr. Arrell!
Don't worry about it. It's probably not going to kill you like this.
Koofa's Iron Claw (?) Matty, freed from the
What did you say?
Sorry about everything, master.
? ? ?
You gotta be kidding me!
I'm a high lord of the demon world!
He's a bona fide demon with tens of thousands of demons under his command!
Why do I have to play the role of a lowly human messenger?
As he himself claims, Mastima was actually a high-ranking demon in the demon world, holding a title and being given a territory.
That's why they are treated as human messengers like this.
It's nothing but humiliation.
If the other demons found out about this, they could be the laughing stock of the entire demon world.
But by no means did he despair over this situation.
'Slave magic?
It will take a little longer with the current state of losing most of your power, but it's still not impossible.
"When I'm freed, I'll take revenge on you in a way that's more frightening than death, you know...??Heehahahahaha!
He was scorching his chest with the fire of vengeance, and he was waiting for the moment with a tiger's eye, even as he complied with Master Sama's orders.
It would be troublesome if he was noticed on the way, so he needed to find the right moment.
Fortunately, he had heard that humans, unlike demons, were creatures that would always sleep.
While they were sleeping, they were completely unprotected.
Now go to sleep.
That will be your last moments!
--a week has passed.
Unfortunately, master hasn't slept a wink.
d*mn, this guy doesn't sleep well....
But it's only been a week, and I don't think we'll get our chance that soon.
Okay, enjoy your last moments.
--It's been two weeks.
And you still don't sleep.
Now go to sleep!
I mean, how long do people sleep in the first place?
Well, I think I heard that you sleep reasonably often...?
--A month has passed.
Still no sign of master-sama going to sleep.
Oi, oi, oi, oi, what's going on?
It's been a month, man.
Wasn't the story about humans sleeping with each other a lie...?
d*mn it!?Who let that gossip get out?
Mastima shudders in anger, but of course the story is not a lie.
Humans usually get their sleep at night.
Of course, Arel was unusual.
However, if you ask him, "I sleep properly every night,
''Um, master-sama........''
What's up, Matty?
With no other option, Mastima decided to ask Arel one day with a clinging thought.
'I've heard that people sleep regularly...'
"Hmm. That's right. Every night I sleep until morning. About six to eight hours.
Every day??And for eight hours!
Mastima was surprised.
It was unthinkable in the harsh environment of the Demon World.
If she was exposed to defenselessness for that long, she would soon die in the demon world.
''........But it looks like Master Sama isn't sleeping at all.......''
He had been watching for an opportunity all night, every night, and he had been training in magic without any interruption at all, day or night.
'I simply train in my sleep,' said Arel, absent-mindedly.
'I simply train in my sleep.
I didn't understand what he was saying, Mastima thought.
Oh, I can't do this........
