The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

Episode 014: The Shape of the World

Oh, seriously?

"- So, that's Sakura, that's Sakura."

When the fuzz came back, Sham's description still continued.

"... hey, that's it all. Did you remember that?

There's no way I can remember.

No, not quite.

"Sorry, I wasn't listening"

"What, maybe, you were asleep?

You look a little shocked.

Don't be sorry, something.

"No, a little, not the other way around..."

"I've told you to tell me yourself it's not the other way around..."

Most likely.

Something's up.

"Sorry, more than that, why don't we cut up some observations today?

When I said that, Sham looked sad.

"... Was astronomy boring after all? I like it so much, but unfortunately..."

More squishy.

Ahhh.

What can I say?

"No, no, I like it, too. But I had another big discovery, and I wanted to make sure."

"... ok. But please tell me later, what a big discovery."

When I got off the scythe on the spot and asked the samurai where Satsuki was, I knocked on the door of the room.

"Go ahead."

because the reply returned that

"Excuse me."

and entered the room.

"Oh, Yuri. What's the matter with you?

"Hey, would you like me to show you a map, don't you?

"Map hey. There is."

"I like the biggest one."

"The big one... could it have been in the treasure trove?

"Even if it's bigger, it's not bigger, it's bigger in range."

"It's okay ~. Because it's a late Shantilla land map"

I'm afraid it's a map of the Great Empire of Chantilla.

I wonder why there is such a thing.

It can be a national treasure.

"Of course, it's not real. Is that what you wrote?

He explained to me whether the suspicion was on his face.

A copy.

Whatever it is, it will be enough in scope.

"Let me see that. Please."

When I opened the swordswallowing door reinforced with an iron plate, that was the treasure trove.

The canteras held by Satsuki are lighted thinly by a number of narrow and loaded valuables.

Even so, there were many types of weapons, not gold and silver treasures.

But if you look closely, you can also see something like gold, and it is placed with dust on it.

Also, some items are bright red, like jewelry coral.

"That sounds dusty."

"Right."

Satsuki has her clothes sleeve against her mouth.

"I just feel like it was here,"

Satsuki opened a tance made of white material like Kiryu.

Inside, a map made of large parchment paper is folded into two folds.

Because parchment is made from animal skins, there is a limit to the size of a single sheet, but this parchment appears to have been sewn in the middle with thin thread, joining two of the largest pieces.

When I took it out and opened it, it was about the size of an open newspaper.

The shape was very skewed, but the terrain was clearly familiar.

Northwestern Eurasia.

"Our country is going to be like this."

and Satsuki pointed out was where it hit the Scandinavian peninsula.

I guess most of it was portrayed in hearsay. Even when it comes to the Eurasian continent, the shape is very disintegrated and very different from the exact map I know.

But obviously there's still a terrain I know.

As far as the map is concerned, Chantilla Grand Empire had territory to the east from the Ural Mountains, to the west from the Scandinavian Peninsula, to the south from around Ukraine to about the Crimea Peninsula and in front of Baku.

It's a big deal.

It seems that the capital, Chantinion, was on the Crimea Peninsula, and the map of the Black Sea coastline was particularly well made.

It almost matches the memory of the world map.

Some terrain, like the Marmara Sea, connects the Black Sea to the Mediterranean Sea, from which the map stretches to about the Italian peninsula.

On the other hand, Great Britain is somewhat like a peanut shaped island, with no Ireland.

I wonder if it really doesn't exist or if it really does.

"With this map, our country isn't drawing very well. Something about when the heart of the country was all the way east."

"... I see"

After all, the terrain on the peninsula seems rather inaccurate.

I was generally convinced.

Oh, seriously, just like that. Earth, right here.

Why haven't I noticed for seven years?

"Have you lived up to expectations?

"Yeah, enough. Can you show me a map of the peninsula later?"

The map of the country is in my husband's room.

"If you don't mind, let me see"

"Well, let's go"

Satsuki and I left the treasure trove.

Close the door on the way home and tighten gutterly with a large padlock.

"Over here."

Walking down the hallway for a while, Satsuki led me to a room so lined with bookcases that I didn't think it was a samurai's house.

The bookcase is packed with old books.

It's more of a study than a private room.

"You're full of books"

"You can read as much as you want ~"

"I haven't even decided that Father will be the winner yet, okay?

"It's like we've made up our minds.

Satsuki smiled.

Scary.

"Oh, it's on my desk..."

On the desk, the map had already been spread out.

Did you spread it out before Gowk left?

Maybe Gowk did it because messing with the stuff in this room is about Gowk and Satsuki and the lady won't mess with it.

A smile disappeared from Satsuki's face, making her look pathetic.

"Let me take a look."

"... yeah, go ahead"

Satsuki lifted her body as she put her hand under my armpit.

"Um."

"It's easier to sit in a chair."

He was then seated in a chair where Gowk would have sat.

You're an outsider.

Satsuki sat me down, then a little farther away, looking at me and smiling at Nico again.

Wet.

Well, okay.

Looking at the map, it was a map of the kingdoms of Siyarta and Kirchna, the two countries.

I knew it too, but there are two countries on the peninsula.

The border with the kingdom of Kirchna appears to be in the part of the peninsula where it bends.

And in its further east, there was the country name 'Kingdom of Dafide' and 'Kingdom of Timna', whose territory was visible.

Maybe it's already a doomed kingdom.

If there is a difference, what is the earliest part of the peninsula?

Where Denmark was, there were islands such as Copenhagen, whose very existence cannot be seen.

"This is where my husband fought"

And, Satsuki pointed on the map.

St. Petersburg?

St. Petersburg is a city facing the Baltic Sea, at the base of the peninsula.

That means we fought on the eastern border of the Kingdom of Kirchna.

However, it was not St. Petersburg that Satsuki pointed to, but its hinterland.

It's not going to be a port city here.

"Is there a city here?

"A fortress?

It seems to be a fortress.

The Shans seem to be mostly cut off from the Klu nation, so there will be no big city on the border.

"Did you fight in the fortress from the beginning?

"At first it was a field battle, and it seemed like a big defeat and a fortress battle"

Why did you wrap it in the fortress?

I guess I did it because I was under siege and no longer wanted to solve the siege.

If they had been besieged ahead of us on the run for a massive defeat in the field, there would be no taking care of them.

Isn't it like I went into a pot from myself and closed the lid, and all I have to do is simmer?

I don't know what the details are, so maybe I actually had a good reason.

"Thank you. Very well, sir."

"Really? What did you find out?

"Hey, I'm studying geography"

Really.

"Oh, yeah? Good for you."

"Now that you've been followed today, I'm off. Sorry I'm late at night."

"It's okay. Then I'll walk you to your room."

"No, I know, I'm fine"

"You get lost all night, don't you? You can't see out there, so even adults get lost sometimes? Are you okay?"

Gu......

That's what makes me nervous.

"Well, can I ask you a favor"

"Sure. Well, shall we?

Eventually, Satsuki and I were to go home to our room.

In the hallway, he got lost after he broke up with me, so don't tell me he found a sham sitting in a triangle and crying.

After looking at Satsuki and looking horny, he was shy of looking at my face and turning his face bright red, which turned out to be cute.
