I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 18: His Wish is Simple

The scorching sun burned the smooth skin of the man who was now walking cheerfully and happily. Nibbling on the food he was clutching, he looked to and fro shop after shop lined up neatly along the way.

That person was Mavis, she was in the market district that she had previously visited with Sasha. And now he's back to hunt down delicious foods that he hasn't tasted before.

"It's so much fun, I used to wonder what it was like to be an all-sufficient person, so to be able to eat delicious food like this."

"And now I know what it's like."

Mavis patted her pants pocket causing a sound,

cring....

The coins clashed against each other in his pocket.

"I'm happy to be rich!" Mavis fell in extreme excitement. He smiled so widely that it looked strange in the eyes of those who were looking.

He kept walking down the market and circling it. Until one day he chose to take a break while tasting a typical warm drink of the tavern, ale drinks that taste mint. A group of people came over to Mavis.

They look mysterious in black covered clothes. The faces of all of them were covered in cloth, it only separated a pair of sharp red eyes.

"My lord."

They all took a half- prostrate position with one of the legs supporting the body.

"You guys seem to have the ability to find my whereabouts. I thought you guys were going to have a hard time and need a lot of time to look for me" Mavis said with a laugh.

"Thank you, sir, for the compliment. Please believe me, we know the Master very well" Mikaela said. Now he is in the front row and face to face with Mavis' body.

"Stand."

Mikaela and the others did not stand on their own.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing sir, we just feel better in this kind of position when facing Mister."

"All right, it's up to you." Mavis only shrugged her shoulders for a moment. "If it makes you more comfortable."

"Before I told you to come back with the intention of thinking things through. However, until this morning I was still at a dead end."

"Is there anything that disturbs the mind, sir?" Mikaela.

Mavis turned her head to the surroundings, it was impossible for her to say so blatantly. What if someone hears it?

"Are any of you able to make my words unheard by anyone other than you?"

"Sir, I can" said Sera. The female demon who was previously passive listened.

"Great work!"

Sera began to cast spells with her fingers forming an intricate pattern several times.

His eyes closed and he was fully concentrated.

A white coating of light begins to form into an invisible shield that can block sound from the inside from coming out.

After Mavis felt that things were safe, she continued to speak, "Before I had said to make you my guards who will continue with me wherever I go."

"And the problem lies in your own identity. You are from the demon race, and it would be very dangerous if a human knew the secret of your identity. After all, demons have been told to be the natural enemies of the human race from antiquity. Therefore, I want you to hide your identity, and don't tell anyone without getting my permission" Mavis said.

"Good, Sir." They answered in turn without hesitation.

"Also .. regarding your physical appearance. I actually don't blame him. It's just that...."

Mavis had a hard time saying that to them.

"Your appearance is unnatural and will cause problems later. Especially with that devil horn, it would be terrible if there was a scientist or historian who recognized its shape."

"Can anyone tell me the solution to this problem? What about you, Samantha?" Mavis is again getting used to relying on him.

The devil put up his glasses and looked up at Mavis, before he finally replied, "Master please calm down, I have two solutions to solve the problem."

As if this was a good opportunity, Samantha was excited to say it.

"Say."

Mavis improved her way of sitting and now became strapping. Both of his eyes sparkled and focused on Samantha.

"First option, actually we can take a human-like body shape, sir. It's just that it's a forbidden thing among us, the demon race, because it signifies a demon of low dignity, and just as not proud of his race."

"And the second option, we are experiencing a revival. Just like you did to that human the night before."

"You kidding? He was different because he had become a corpse, while you were still alive. What ridiculous thing, you even proposed death as an option?"

Mavis closed her eyes with her palms due to sudden stress. He was really at a loss for words.

"Sorry, Sir."

Samantha looked back down with her face bent. He felt sorry for saying something he shouldn't have said and made his master dislike him. He truly felt guilty for having put his personal feelings in without thinking about the consequences.

He was envious of that man-Darius, who earned Mavis's favor by bringing her into the shadow of his own, whereas the despicable man had previously wanted to harm Mavis. Why does the man trust his master, while those who are patient and faithful await his arrival have no place by his side?

Samantha calmed her mind.

"Sir, is there something you don't like about us?" Mikaela asked a question.

Apparently, not only Samantha felt that way, but the others also.

"Master, please say that and we will do whatever you want, until you can trust and accept us" Mikaela said.

"Eh?"

Mavis was aghast, and she got up from sitting down.

"What are you saying? Did I miss something? Have I not made a blood contract with you guys before? Is that lacking evidence that I accept you?" mavis said with astonishment flashed across her face.

"Not that, sir, we mean to be on your side just like that man, and that bird."

"You mean Darius and Buster? You guys...."

Mavis frowned.

"Are you guys serious? What we're talking about here is death. It could only be done to a person who was already a corpse. What's so special about that? To the extent that you want to be like them?"

They all fell silent.

For them, being resurrected means gaining the full trust of Mavis.

"Okay, I'll do it so you don't act weird like this" Mavis said.

Mikaela's face sparkled and looked at Mavis with a smile full of happiness. He gets excited. Same with the others.

Mavis who saw him felt ashamed for it. Even the way they looked at Mavis had attracted some people to look at her, and now plus a woman with a face like that.

The people walking around even talked about them in the back. Like, what are they doing? Is this a drama show? Aren't they very suspicious, they were wearing all-black clothes, just like a perverted sect.

Fortunately, Sera has used other capabilities, namely soundproof protection. Those around them do not know what is being said.

"Let's end up here. You all get up and follow me" said Mavis.
