ONE COULD BE THE KING OF ANOTHER WORLD
Volume 1 (Ch 2 STARTING FROM ZERO) Part 5

"These books you mentioned, are they all related to the law?" My toot.

"No. I don't focus on the genre will read anything."

certain. Law, literature, technical manuals, I

"I saw."

Why yes. Something is bothering me

down here.

"Hm... Then, how about you become a librarian for the archives in the palace?" My toot. "There may be a book there that you won't find on the market, and with your authority as a librarian, you'll be able to read it."

"Oh, that sounds good. If that's the case, please, let me do it. "Finally, something that I could recognize as a happy expression crossed Hakuya's face. He looks satisfied.

Sei ze every chance, as they say. It might be better for me to keep an interesting card like him in my hand than to let him go. "Next, Mrs Juna Doma, step forward."

"Yes sir."

Exchanging places with Hakuya, the beautiful blue-haired girl stepped up.

She looked the same age as me, nineteen years old, but the air she had about her made this woman feel more mature than her age. With her hair expanding behind her, she was a picture of beauty as she gracefully lowered her head. While the clothes are not too revealing, the upper part resembles an Austrian dirndl, while the lower part is transparent and exposes its legs, as you might see in an Indian dancer's sari. Around his hips was wrapped in a piece of lacy clothing.

Were it not for the sharp appearance I received from Liscia, I might have admired her beauty for an entire hour.

"Yes. I haven't forgotten my work, so stop staring, "I muttered.

"I don't know about that..." Liscia replied, throwing her face away in anger.

Marx said, 'Say,

"Baginda, this one shows she is gifted with rare beauty and singing ability. With those gifts, she took the crown at the Moniyan Pretty Girl Grand Prix with her beauty, and at Kingdom of Talent with her singing. Really, she is the most beautiful singer of this generation.

Double crown ?! Well, that

impresses. "Sometimes the heavens do bestow two gifts, apparently," I said.

"You are too kind," Juna replied calmly and gracefully to my rather charmed praise. "I've heard that the Doma family is descended from loreleis. Singing is in my blood "

Loreleian... They were sea monsters that used their beauty and songs to lead sailors towards their destruction, right? Of course, her beauty and her flowing blue trees made me think of the lorelei. "I'd love to hear you sing."

“If you want, I can."

"certain. This scene was broadcast around Moniyan now through this gem. Can you sing a little song to entertain our citizens?

"Song to cheer them up ... right?" Juna looked agitated. "Most of the lorelei songs passed down in my family are sad love songs, you know..."

"Ohh, if there's some code or something holding you back from singing it, that's okay."

"No, I just don't know. However, if I can hear it, I can learn it immediately."

"Hm... Ah, then, how about

this is?"

I pulled out my smartphone. It was one of the few things I had when I was summoned to this world. I opened my music folder, picked a song that jumped at me, then walked over to Juna and picked up earbuds for him.

"What's this?"

"Something like a machine playing music, I guess? By the way, I'm playing it now."

Juna's eyes widened.

As I pressed the button, Juna's body shook. He looked puzzled at first, but he was used to it, as his body slowly got into a rhythm. Then, five minutes later, he pulled out an earbud.

"I memorized it."

"Have you? You can actually memorize it the first time you hear it?"

"Yes. Now, let me sing it for you."

I went back to my house and she started singing.

short for Minna no Uta, very distinctive

The song is "Ganbaranba" by Masashi Sada. This cheerful song, which was even made for using rap in Nagasaki dialect mixed with Kyushu children's song "Denderaryuba." Grandpa is a fan, so I often listen to him together.

Still, I was impressed with this lorelei. He even managed to sing the rap part in Nagasaki dialect. This was completely incomprehensible to the people from the Kanto region, but he sang it ferociously.

By the way, Liscia then told me that she couldn't understand the lyrics. I can understand the language that people in this country speak, and they can understand the language of my home country, but it seems like it is part of my strength as a hero. I can even write in the language of the world. What I was trying to write in my head was translated into language here, so even though I couldn't read it afterwards, I could write it.

So, the Japanese (in the Nagasaki dialect) who came out of Juna's mouth used an unknown language for the people of the country. Still, even without knowing the words, if a song is good, you can still

comprehended it. Everyone listened to that good song and enjoyed it.

A few minutes later, amid a standing ovation, Juna finished the song and bowed.

"It was a fun song. Thank you." Thank you."

"No, I have to thank you" I said. "Your singing is very good."

"If possible, I hope you'll teach me more of your country songs, Your Majesty."

"I really want you to sing it....Oh I know! Hopefully we can increase the amount of jewelry, but even if that's not possible, we can finally turn the Jewel Voice Room into a recording studio so that people can hear your song at all times.

"I! That would be like a dream come true, Sire. "Juna wore a sincere little smile. That was an incredible smile.

"I will count on you when the time comes" I said. "You did a good job today."

Juna retreated, and now it was the fox-eared little girl's turn.

"Next, Madame Tomoe Inui of the mystical wolf race, stepped forward."

"Y-Yesh!"

Her voice broke, the young girl with the ears of a ten-year-old looking animal stepped forward with her right hand moving along with her right leg.

The mystical wolf race. I guess it's not fox ears, they're wolf ears.

She is adorable with her tanned skin and cute little round eyes. The clothes he was wearing were just a little shabby. They were torn to shreds on the spot and, perhaps because he was tense, the hairy tail protruding from his buttocks stood upright.

Yup, I want to stroke it.

"Although young it may be, this one has a very rare gift of being able to talk to birds and beasts. When we brought him to the palace, he could correctly tell us everything from the health condition of the horses to their history. According to him, the horses told him these things. Really, this is a godly ability."

The gift of talking to animals, huh? Looks like we have an amazing little beastman in our hands here.

As I thought about it, next to me Liscia quietly whispered, "Mystic wolf country is far in the north. It should not be in this country.

A refugee, yes," I muttered. Ah, that would explain those broken clothes, wouldn't it?

With the expansion of the Demon King Domain, a number of countries and villages had been destroyed. Those who lost their land have fled south, become refugees in other countries, and they are starting to put pressure on the economy. Different countries deal with them in different ways. Some pro actively took it, while others moved to repel them. Nonetheless, even when it came to the countries that brought them, most forced them to become as hardworking as mining or sending them as additional manpower to fight against the demons, so that kind of country is hell for the refugees.

Even in my kingdom, refugee camps are popping up outside the Swan capital. At the moment, the decision on what to do with them is still "restrained". If we help the refugees when we don't even have enough food to feed our own people, riots may break out. If we expel them or force them to be hard workers, we have to deal with the hatred of refugees. If they hide and make us******, that would be terrible. As it happens, they lead to a decrease in public safety,

but we have no choice but

maintaining my status.

To offer help to people

else, we should be in a good place to help ourselves first, I thought.

"I said if they had a gift, I would give it to us, and I didn't mean to twist those words," I said loudly. "If she has a gift, it doesn't matter if she's a stranger or a refugee. After all, we are not in a special position for such things."

"You're right."

When I said that, the female mystic wolf that had just been introduced hesitantly opened its mouth to speak. "Uh ... Um... King David..."

"Hm? What'sthat?"

"Pulse... Yeah ... Uh, I have something I want to say ..."

Because he was so tense, he spoke as if forcing words out. W hard to make what he says.

"Do you have something you want to say? I don't mind. Please slow down."

"Jesh ... Um... Actually ..."

"Hm? Whahuh? You need to talk, or I won't be able to hear you ..."

"Um.. I ..." Tomoe shed tears. She was still young enough to be called a little girl, so it was painful to see her with such a face.

"Of ..."

I walked over to the girl's side and squatted down next to her, putting my ear next to her mouth. As the person in charge of guarding me, Ludwin had a disapproving expression on his face, but I ignored him.

"Now I should be able to hear you" I said. “Say anything

which you like."

"Yes. The truth is..."

What he whispered to me next made me doubt my ears. I stood up and looked at my face

Tomoe.

"... You sure about this?"

"Y-Yep."

"Have you said this to anyone else?"

"T-No ... Nothing but my mother ..."

"I saw..."

I let out a breath. It was half-relieved and

half worried when I thought about.

what is coming. This is more than just

rare gift. This girl has the potential to be

"bomb" to this world.

...Calm. Breathes. Don't let anyone here notice how agitated you are.

"Well, I'm a little tired. I want to take a little shorts here.

"David?"

When I said that, look around,

Liscia looked at me doubtfully. The others had the same reaction, but I ignored them, boldly raising my voice.

"Now I want a thirty minute break. The presentation of the award to reman ning two, including this girl, will take place after that. Mrs Juna."

"What's up, Sire?" When I called out his name, singer Lorelei stepped forward.

"Right now, our countrymen are watching us through the Jewel Voice Broadcast. It was painful for me to make people wait during our break. So, can I ask you to cheer them up with your singing for half an hour or so?

"Of course, sir. Our songs are the pride of my family. I'll sing my heart to them."

With those words,

Juna bowed elegantly.

Our eyes met for a moment. It felt like he was checking in with me: There's a reason for this, right? But, even so, he chose not to ask, to do as I asked.

Even without her beauty and singing, I want a caring person like her among my subordinates. While Juna made time for me, I gathered people I could trust in the government office. This includes me, Liscia, Marx, Ludwin, and Tomoe. That'sthat's all. As for Aisha, who did not want to be separated from me without her swearing her loyalty, I told her to stand outside the door to make sure no one was listening.

"Are all these precautions really necessary?" Liscia asked in confusion,

which I reply with a nod.

"We are in a very bad situation. Has anyone heard what Tomoe said before? "I checked in with the other three, but they all shook their heads.

I didn't hear. Her voice is so

quiet."

"I don't either."

"So is it with me."

Then, is there a risk that people are hearing about the Jewel Voice Broadcast?"

"Maybe he'll be fine," said Liscia. "That's insensitive."

As soon as I heard that, I felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted off my shoulders.

"Is it that bad?" Ask.

"Yes. That's really a bomb statement."

Everyone's focus narrows on the oome, making it shrink back even more into itself. It seemed difficult for him to speak, so I answered on his behalf.

"He can communicate with animals. You all heard that, didn't you?

"Yes. It's an amazing gift, isn't it?"

"He used that power to talk to demons, apparently."

When I said that, the room was cold. Everyone was speechless, just speaking without a sound like a bunch of goldfish. Before I go into detail, there are a few things you need to know first.

What people in this world think when they talk about demons or monsters and what people in my world think when they talk about demons or monsters is a little different. In the world I come from, monsters are not "humans" or "plants and animals," which is seen as a perversion.

However, in this world, the words "person" and "beast" are broadly defined.

To be more specific, humans, elves, beastmen, and dragonewts are all "humans" and fall into the category of "humans."

In category" animals and animals," even at a height of four meters, a red grizzly is still a mammal. Even if it looks like a dinosaur, monitor lizards are still reptiles. Even as big as humans, giant ants are still insects. And even if it eats people, maneat er is a plant. In addition, gelin, a slime creature that does things like join together, divide, melt, and more, also falls into the category of "plants and animals", for some reason.

By the way, dragons and the like

they are called "beast beasts", and their eyes are categorized separately.

The reason why none of these creatures were called monsters was because they were native to this world. Because they have been part of the ecology of this world all along, each of them has their own habitat away from human habitation. In fact, the eight-legged horses in this country are all going to be Sleipnir by the standards of the world I come from, and the cattle like cows and chickens all seem like they have been designed to look even more horrible.

However, if you ask what a monster is, the term refers to things like chimeras, which are a mix of different animals that blend together, zombies, skeletons and other types of undead, he said, as well as goblins, orcs, and giants, who look almost like people, but no one would mistake them for living things.

Ever since the Devil World appeared, there had been a plague

these huge monsters were in the north of the continent, but even before the appearance of the Devil World, they had inhabited an area known as the dungeon that existed throughout the continent.

Dungeons are dungeons with a mysterious ecology. I'm used to seeing them in games, but they really are in this world. Incidentally, I have heard that in this world there are so-called "adventurists" who explore this kind of dungeon, protected merchants, eliminating dangerous beasts that tear through fields, tearing up fields, and kill the monsters that came out of the dungeon as their way of making a life.

Before the Devil World appeared, monsters were considered less intelligent. In fact, the monsters in the dungeon, even the almost humanoid ones like goblins, only had intelligence at the animal level.

However, among the monsters in the Demon King Domain, there were those who behaved as if they were intelligent.

These monsters act in groups, use weapons and magic, and can strategize. It acts almost like "people" do. When the human race had failed in the invasion to the Demon Lord's Domain, their lack of more complete knowledge of the existence of these monsters was the biggest factor in their defeat. Humans have chosen to summon these intelligent monsters "demons" to distinguish them from more animal-like monsters.

Now, let's go back to the story. Basically, Tomoe said that she had spoken to one of these demons.

It seemed, up until now, no one had ever managed to talk to the demons. With the sudden appearance of an army that spoke a foreign language, and with the ongoing hostility, understanding each other would not be happy.

Liscia drew closer to Tomoe.

"What are you talking about, and what are you talking about ?!"

"B-With Mr. Kobold. They are different from us ... They are short, and their whole face, not just their ears, is like a dog... On the day before our village was resisted, he said, I can't bear to see those who have the same scent as me attacking. Quick run. It's a miracle I can understand what Mr. Kobold said, but thanks to him, we can avoid trouble..."

“So, to sum it up... Demons have a clear will of their own, don't they?" Ludwin said, as if groaning.

People in this world only considered demons as slightly smarter monsters. Like locusts swarming over the ground, or barbarians happy to be slaughtered. From what I heard, it wasn't a mistak impression in terms of monsters. However ... For the devil, another point of view may be needed.

If the demons had their own will, as suggested by Tomoe, mankind might have fought "against" the demon race unknowingly. War without channels of diplomacy. With their families killed, their homes razed, and their country stolen, humanity abhors the monsters and demons. If this was war, it was possible that the demons hated ma nkind in the same way.

“If this knowledge spreads to all other countries ..." I start.

"... there will be chaos," Liscia finished.

Liscia and I both lowered shoulders.

I don't think dialogue will be possible with each and every demon or monster from the Demon Lord's Domain. The ones we could talk to, like the Kobold that let the mystic wolves escape, were probably only a small portion of them. However, if one were to find out that even some demons were like that, the demon race would cease to be a common enemy of the entire human race.
