"At this critical moment of life and death, my benefactor Ryan-sama ~Meow~ appeared and saved me from the crisis!"
Having said that, a cynical smile appeared on Kuroka's face.
Kuroka was grateful to Ryan from the bottom of her heart. If he hadn't defeated the pursuing troops, she might have been on the road to death.
save?
Ryan wanted to laugh.
Even if he didn't appear, she would also have been able to escape alone.
"Kitten."
"Hmm? What else do you want to ask, Ryan-sama~miao~"
Ryan looked at Kuroka who responded to him with a smile, and asked in a calm tone.
"What do you think of 'absolute evil'?"
"Absolute evil...Are you referring to the devil king of the underworld?"
Kuroka blinked and asked to confirm.
Ryan nodded.
"As a half-devil, I am naturally in awe of that king, just like other devils!"
Kuroka gave an official answer and then added another sentence.
"But I don't really like him that much."
"Oh, why?"
Hearing this, Ryan suddenly became interested.
"Maybe it's because I'm not a pure-blooded devil, and I haven't experienced the civil war. Even though everyone around me is saying that the adult is so strong that it's suffocating, I haven't seen it, so it's hard to empathize with him. And..."
"and?"
"Besides, let's just assume that the Devil King is really strong! But he hasn't shown up for hundreds of years. Not only me, but even many pure-blooded devils have never seen his true face... He has been staying in the palace in the capital, and has pushed all matters to his subordinates. I think that as a devil king, he should have the consciousness of a devil king and personally lead his subordinates to glory!"
Kuroka pointed out seriously.
Ryan stroked his chin and added.
"'It is very foolish for a capable person to do nothing.' - Is that what you meant to say?"
"Yes, that's right! That's it, meow~"
Kuroka nodded vigorously, and the pair of furry cat ears on her head swayed up and down, agreeing very much with Ryan's remarks.
"But~ Ryan-sama, I have to remind you!"
Kuroka raised a finger with a serious expression and she said calmly, "If you enter the Underworld Devil Territory, you must not say a single bad word about the Devil king in front of others! If the patrolling guards hear you, you will be invited to have afternoon tea with them! If you are unlucky and run into the interrogation of the Silver-haired Annihilation queen, you will definitely die!"
"I see."
Ryan thought about it and said with a rather pleasant expression: "But, I think... even if I said something bad, I guess no one would be willing to invite me to have afternoon tea."
"Why? ~meow~"
Looking at the cat-girl's cute little expression of blinking eyes and deep confusion, Ryan restrained his smile and whispered the truth.
"Because I am the 'Devil King' you mentioned."
Doubt, bewilderment, confusion, surprise...all sorts of expressions flashed across Kuroka's pretty face, so changeable that her brain temporarily shut down and she was unable to think.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing here?
What did this person just say?
Could it be that my injuries were too severe and I had not received any treatment, which led to the auditory hallucinations?
Yes! That must be the case!
The cat-girl smiled as she thought so, but the muscles on her face were twitching, making her smile look a little stiff and weird.
To put it bluntly, it's so strange that smiling is uglier than crying.
"Well, that... Ryan-sama, I seem to have heard something wrong just now... Can you say it again?"
"I am what you call the Devil King, the 'Absolute Evil'. Do you understand me now?"
Ryan smiled as he looked at the little black cat who was beginning to doubt her life, with a meaningful smile on his face, and repeated and added.
"Meow~ ha, ha, Ryan-sama, you are so...funny and humorous. You can even make...this kind of joke..."
A lot of sweat oozed out of her smooth skin. Kuroka laughed dryly, and her voice gradually began to tremble as she spoke.
After all, this is really too ridiculous!
Even a child's joke is more realistic than this.
