A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

A Day in the Life of Nell

Nell was in the frontier town of Alfiero.

It was for her work as a hero.

With the introduction of airships, it was now possible to be deployed anywhere in the Kingdom of Allysia in a short time, so Nell, who could be said to be the most powerful person in the country, no longer needed to be tied down to the Royal Capital.

Besides, her job now was more of a [Wife of the Demon Lord Yuki] role.

Although Yuki was no longer the emperor, he still had great influence.

A Wild Card.

Or rather a Demon Lord Card.

Since her husband was the Demon Lord Yuki, being able to contact him anytime was a special kind of advantage for the Kingdom of Allysia since Yuki no longer resided in any other country.

This was far more important than the fact that Nell was the strongest Hero of all time.

That was why Nell, whose current workplace resided in Alfiero, still spent her days training and hunting monsters in the surrounding area.

In addition to the change in her work assignment, the policy of reconciliation with other races had progressed significantly, so Nell’s work as a hero had decreased compared to before. That was not to imply that she had more time to spare in her work.

The reason for this could be found in the town of Alfiero itself.

It was located at the edge of the country, and there was an unexplored region called Demon Forest nearby.

Even the monsters that Yuki and his friends ignore as small fry become adversaries that humans must fight for life and death, and these adversaries would sometimes reach an area right next to the town.

The people who gathered here were those who could fight in their own way – in other words, those who sought strength, and there were many of them.

“Yes, the end.” (Nell)

“What!?” (Challenger)

The sword he had been holding had somehow disappeared from his arm, and it was now in the hand of Nell, the girl who was supposed to have just clashed swords with him.

“How…?” (Challenger)

“It feels like you still don’t have a mastery of your weapon. If you could have a little more awareness of how you use your weapon, to use it as an extension of your body, your skill would improve. At the very least you wouldn’t let your opponent snatch your weapon like this.” (Nell)

“I can’t believe how much of a difference it makes… Thank you for your guidance.” (Challenger)

“Yes, thank you very much. –and then the next one!” (Nell)

Today Nell was in the training hall of the Adventurers’ Guild.

The guild had asked her to train people. After some thought, Nell decided to accept the guild’s request. The church also gave their permission, so the guild was able to set up this place for training.

However, it was not only adventurers who were present, but also soldiers, knights, holy knights, mercenaries, and many others who were skilled in their craft.

Moreover, among them, there were not only humans but also demons and beastmen.

As a result of the announcement that Nell would train everyone, so many people who make their living fighting have gathered.

Because of her connection with the Warwolf tribe, Nell had been actively involved with other races during her time in Alfiero, and thanks to this, she was relied upon by them to the extent that they would “consult her in the event of any problems”.

Nell now played the role of a consultant for other races, so to speak, and since she was going to show her power this time, many members of non-human races had also gathered to see her.

Some even took the trouble to fly in from other countries for the occasion.

At that moment, a human adventurer, who was watching the game, happened to call out to a demon who was standing next to him.

“Hey, demon girl, I’ve heard that the demons are strong. But…are there any warriors among you who can fight like that?” (Adventurer)

“No…I appreciate your high estimation of us, but we rarely have warriors of this caliber. The demon race sometimes produces strong warriors with monstrous strength…in other words, even among us, she is classified at that level.” (Demon Girl)

“I see… that’s right. That’s a relief.” (Adventurer)

“For our part, it is frightening to know that a human who has reached the extreme is capable of such a level of ability. I feel like I’ve just caught a glimpse of the reason why humans have been able to stand alone against other species.” (Demon Girl)

“Rest assured. That brave young lady has long since transcended the boundaries of human beings. –How about that old beastman over there?” (Adventurer)

The human adventurer then called out to the beastman on the other side.
