Funeral, what should I do if I reincarnate as a demon?

"Um."

"..."

The conversation between the two ended, but seeing that he was still staring at her, Line unconsciously handed over the apple: "Master Ash, do you also want to eat an apple?"

"No, but...you really like apples."

"Because the place where I was born was an apple forest. When I was a child, I always ate apples...?"

"...I see, what are you interested in?"

"Interested in...observation?"

"That's really a good interest...?"

Faced with this child who tilted her head in confusion and stared intently at his child, Ash really didn't know how to communicate with her.

Sure enough, is it because you are older and not good at chatting with children? The legendary generation gap? But... Aura shouldn't have been so cold before, right? Is it the child who is weird or Aura who is weird? ——Ash touched Linye's head unconsciously, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. He didn't know whether to doubt Aura or Linye.

There is no way, the demons he has come into contact with are a bit too few...the types are also a bit too extreme.

"Speaking of which, what kind of magic are you good at?"

"Imitation... Lord Aura said that I have excellent perception ability, so I can read and remember other people's movements and then use them myself."

"That's...well, it seems pretty good?"

To be honest, he didn't know how far this imitation magic could go, but he just praised it casually and went back to work temporarily with doubts.

You must know that normal demons will not care about children, because having potential in the future means that they have no strength now.

No one in the Demon Clan will look at the future, and will only interact with people of similar strength, or dominate those who are not as strong as themselves, but are still capable.

But Aura picked up a child that was basically useless at present. This obviously did not conform to the logic of the demon clan.

So it turns out that Aura is not normal? in addition.....

"...Why am I supposed to be the king's master, but now I have to do these strange jobs?? Doesn't the king just need to enjoy it?"

"The previous king had the same idea, so you have to work now~" Aura heard this complaint from the sidelines, but she was reading the magic book leisurely, crossing her legs and making sarcastic remarks, looking very uncomfortable.

It was too clear that the matter would not be solved even if he left it to Aura, so even if Ash was angry and dissatisfied, he still had nothing to do with her and could only immerse himself in his work with depression.

He conveniently held Ligne on his lap, writing with one hand and stroking Ligne's hair with the other, sighing to himself:

"If the tuba failed, let's just practice the trumpet...Line, you must be a good child - no, I will definitely train you to be a good child!"

"...and then give birth to many children for Master Ash?" Line asked with an innocent expression.

Hearing this, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up: "——What kind of dirty thoughts do you have? Am I so powerful? I taught you bad things so quickly??"

"The women in the palace said that men all think like this...don't they?"

"Of course not! This king is not a good person. Who do you think his lovers are? You can't imitate them!"

He glared sternly, causing Ligne to nod blankly: "Really? I'm sorry."

"...Please, I really want you to become an excellent manager and work for me! If you become like Aura, I will really faint!"

Although he said this, he was actually a little worried now about whether being in a place like the palace would have a bad influence on children.

Of course, he doesn't have much confidence in whether he can have a positive impact on children.

But... He just wants to cultivate a serious subordinate who will not die immediately. It is best to be as loyal and capable as Shorahat is to the Demon King.

Otherwise, he would be very worried. In the future, he would have to deal with various things every day, would have no time to play, and would become a ruthless work machine, just like he is now... He would probably have to wait another month to find Fulilian.

The Buried Fulian·Thousand Years to Present: Chapter 51: Development Blocked·An Anticipated Adventure

Under normal circumstances, the king should be replaced by endless pleasure mode.

But when it came to Ash's side, it turned into an infinite overtime mode, making him wonder why he had to take such a thankless action in the first place.

But having taken over the country, he would feel uncomfortable if it was not managed well, so he was forced to start work.

Just like that, a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The night before he was scheduled to leave... he was still working overtime, arranging various things in the kingdom after he left, and at the same time...

"Come on~" Ash just patted his thigh, and the cute girl Line, who was always in the corner, understood and sat on his lap, taking the initiative to act as a self-heating pillow in the cold night of this northern land. .

Feeling the warmth in his arms, he finally felt a touch of human warmth from this cold world, but...

"Line, you must work hard and don't let me down."

"Yes, Master Ash." Line nodded obediently without any resistance.

From her actions, she is really well behaved, but... she doesn't seem to have made much progress in this month.

Maybe he is too eager for success, but the biggest change in his impression is that she understands what he means by slapping her thigh and runs to his legs?

This strange progress makes him feel a little subtle, and even doubts his life.

Aura, who was flipping through the magic book on the side, noticed his overly gloomy expression, but couldn't help but teasing:

"Ash, you are really cultivating the woman of the future, right? Just like this king."

"... Don't think of me as that kind of pervert, I won't play the cultivation game!"

"So you don't raise it and just go for it? I heard that many nobles in this country have this interest, no... it should be that most nobles in human countries have this interest? I didn't expect you to have this interest when you just became a noble. You can really judge a person by his appearance~"

Aura smiled secretly with her hands covering her mouth, and the four words "gloating" were almost written on her face.

This made him unable to help but glare at her: "... Stop talking nonsense. To be honest, I sometimes wonder if you are a demon."

"Compared to me, you are not much better, right?"

"Forget it... I don't want to talk about you. Anyway, help the child and find a proper teacher in a while."

After this period of training, he was sure that he didn't have much spare energy to teach a child, so he could only choose to outsource it, but...

"... What are you looking at me for?"

He just glanced at Aura while speaking, and Aura turned sideways to avoid his direct gaze, as if silently expressing not to push the matter onto himself.

This made Ash sure that this big account was indeed useless.

But now he put down the child in his arms, walked up quickly and slapped Aura on the head, let her look at him and said word by word:

"I just asked you to find a teacher for this child! Don't push this kind of thing off! In addition, I have to go out for something tomorrow, remember to find a better teacher and control it... I probably won't be back for a while, and the kingdom and Linie will be handed over to you in the future, understand?"

"Are you still worried about me?"

"... It's you that I can't worry about." Although he was worried about Aura, he was also worried about others. At this moment, he could only put his hand on her head, shaking it for a while before giving up and sighing: "But... I really ask you."

"Ash has always been so nagging, why hasn't he changed in five hundred years?"

"... Do you think I want to be like this?"

"Don't... Forget it, I will handle it properly, is that okay?"

Aura frowned, but gave up further rebuttal.

This surprised him somewhat, and he tidied up her messy hair while smiling and saying with relief:

"Awula, you finally understand a little bit, the feelings of an elder."

"... Bullying the younger generation?"

"Don't talk nonsense, have I ever bullied you?"

"......."Awula didn't say anything, just looked at him expressionlessly.

Just like this, he was forced to raise his hands as if surrendering:

"Okay, maybe a little bit, but you can't just learn bad things from me, right? Good things are always..."

"——What is 'good'?"

"Uh... Let me think about it..."

He believed that he should have been a role model in the past, but this suddenly... I really didn't expect it.

It must be because there was not enough time, right? ——With such certainty, he showed an awkward but polite smile, stood up again and patted Awula's head.

"Anyway, it's already late, you should go to bed early, otherwise you won't grow taller in the future."

After saying this, he turned around and was about to leave without any hesitation.

But Aura suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, smiling: "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if I'm already 500, but don't you want to talk about what your advantages are?"

"...Don't force me to beat you before I leave." He restrained his smile, turned back and glared at him expressionlessly, forcing Aura to let go, and smacked his lips in displeasure: "Tsk... The result is still force?"

"The result is enough, the process is not important."

"Isn't this usually the statement of the villain?"

"——Stop talking, I have a lot of work to do, so I don't have time to argue with you!"

Not wanting to say more to this rebellious child, he pulled Linie, who was still quietly listening to their quarrel, and left here quickly.

Leaving Aura alone staring at his gradually disappearing back, revealing a malicious smile.

"You are so busy, and you want to be a good king, but you lack available talents... Of course you need a loyal executioner! Linie is a good kid~ Yeah! I am so considerate~!"

In order to avoid being scolded, she decided to complete the task but not complete it that way.

Get a loyal executioner, but... There is no need to train him for government affairs, anyway, when the time comes, just say that the demons can only fight.

...........................

The next morning.

I didn't want to work anymore, and I wanted to have fun for a while, so Ash left the royal city at dawn.

"....Although there is an old lady elf, I heard there is another one that looks like a dwarf? But according to the established routine, there will definitely be a beautiful hero! A gentle monk sister! There will definitely be a dwarf loli! It's really exciting~!" He smiled unconsciously while talking to himself, and unconsciously quickened his pace.

It's not that he is vulgar, at least he thinks he is normal.

It's just that for so many years, let alone beautiful girls, he didn't even have the opportunity to meet a decent girl... He really wanted to experience the taste of youth.

Therefore, when he left the royal city and Aura, he was in a good mood, and even his steps were unconsciously much lighter, as if the late breath of youth was blowing in his face.

The Buried Furrilian: Thousand Years to the Present: Chapter 52 The Sudden Truth

The idea of ​​going back to find Furrilian, joining the brave team, and playing together for a while made Ash, who was full of emotions, arrange the kingdom, and leave much faster than when he went.

After working so hard, trying so hard, and struggling for so long, he felt that it was not too much to relax for a while.

After all, there was still a lot to come. If he didn't play and work every day, he would doubt whether he would really become a standard demon... Although standard demons should not work by themselves.

But it was under the effect of that expectation that he took three months to come here, and it only took him two months to go back because he flew at high speed all the way.

After asking around a little bit, he thought it would take another month to find Fulilian, but...

He used Fulilian's extremely rare and eye-catching elf as a direction mark to ask around, and then he found that the brave team Fulilian joined had unexpectedly not left the country where Fulilian was originally.

Therefore, he only took three days to easily see the familiar figure in a village... But for some reason, Fulilian was using magic to help farmers pull radishes.

The pretty and petite silver-haired fairy girl who looked like a lolita also noticed his figure quickly when he was dumbfounded. She unconsciously stopped what she was doing, widened her eyes in surprise and walked towards him quickly.

"Ash, why are you here?" Fulilian looked at him in confusion.

"Well... I heard that you finally went out, and I came to see you because I was a little worried."

He couldn't say that he wanted to see what the Kingly Brave Team was like, right? So he just smiled vaguely and patted Fulilian's head.

"Really? Thank you... But I'm fine, you are, where are you from? Where have you been all this time?" I thought he was going to die soon and might never see him again in this life, but I didn't expect to meet him again here, which made Fulilian unconsciously smile.

"Me? Ah~ Actually, I... find a warm and pleasant place to live."

"Retirement?"
