Chapter 112: King Warm’s?Return
Translator: Mr.Nobody
“Return it… Return it… It’s mine. The throne is mine… Give it back.…”
“King Warm… what a horrible appearance… To think you have fallen down so much just by losing the throne…”
King Warm for some reason had been transformed into a sludge-like monster. I don’t know the reason. There was no sign of the King he once was, right now he is just a pathetic existence that had fallen into a monster.
But on the other hand, I feel that this appearance fitted him more than his previous human appearance.
It was probably because even though he had transformed into a monster he was still saying silly things and trying to hang on to power.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about since I don’t care about it. I don’t care about the throne. Why are you obsessed so much about the throne? However, if you wish, you can learn up close how an excellent King like me rules the world and how good my reign is. You’ll have to work very hard near me to get the qualifications for a King again. You can copy me as much as you want to understand what it is to be a King. If you do that, then maybe even someone like you will have a chance to be a King again.”
You can’t become a King for nothing. Only by looking at my example as the King can you know what a King is and be able to qualify.
“That’s a very good idea!”
Lucia said in a bright voice.
“If he learns from Master then surely King Warm will grow mentally too. If you learn from Master this way and then work hard to get Master’s approval, you may be able to get the throne back! It’s a valuable chance to learn from Master. As you learn and reflect on what politics, duties of a King are then there is a chance you might be recognized as a King again! No, being recognized by Master is the very same thing as receiving qualifications to be a King!”
“That’s getting to the point.”
I nodded to her comment.
“Listen well, King Warm… No, you’re just a monster now… Listen well, monster. Kings are not alone. Kings are those who’ve been recognized by the surrounding people. Just like me, who was selfishly made a King which is extremely annoying.”
To those words,
“Masatsugu-sama is originally not fit to be a King. However, the people around him are forcibly making him King or something which is out of his role.”
“Honestly, I want him to rule the world but right now he’s ruling the Warm’s Kingdom so he’s kind of in an offsetting place.”
“The Guild also wishes that Naomi-sama rules all of the Guilds.”
“Honestly, I want him to be the Demon King in my place.”
“If possible, I’d like for him to become the King of the Dwarf Kingdom.”
“No, even above the King of the Demons I want him to be the Emperor who leads all demons.”
Lucia, Elin, Shii, Silvy, Laara, Clarissa, Mira said.
I nodded to the words of the girls.
“That’s how it is, monster… This is what the ?King’s Qualification? is all about. I don’t seek it but rather the King’s seat itself calls to me. It’s asking for me personally. Someone like you who’s so obsessed with it, is the furthest from it.”
But, despite saying so much and giving him the chance for growth, the sad part is that our words couldn’t connect. No matter how many times I’d want to save him, he’d never move forward unless he repents his mistakes and learns from me. I was once reminded of the reality where there are people that can’t be saved even if I want to.
“Ugaaaaaaa! Selfishly taking it! I will not recognize it! I’ll not recognize you! Return it! Give the throne back to me! Return the Crown back to meeeeee!”
He shouted while having blobs of his watery body pop.
“Dirty! Don’t come this way! You garbage!”
“Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?”
I immediately sent a shockwave and the former Warm’s King got blown away. I didn’t do it to protect myself but rather to protect my precious partners.
The monster rolled around until it hit a huge stone and stopped. It fell on the ground and was writhing on it.
His appearance is too ugly, though on the contrary it revealed Warm’s King true <> as a human being so strangely I can agree to his appearance.
And then,
“The throne is not something of a big deal. I performed my duties for a while as a King to clean up your mess, but I was just doing things like it’s natural course.”
I can’t help but feel pity for the man who couldn’t do so much and while sitting on the throne he was abandoned by the people.
And then,
“If you want this Crown then have it. Here!”
I said that and I threw the crown which is a proof of the throne to the former Warm’s King.
“AAaa!? How dare you!”
King Warm is surprised at the crown being thrown at him and tries to catch it.
But,
‘Smash’
Just before King Warm can catch it the crown fell on the ground and got smashed. I fired a shockwave to destroy it.
“Aaah!? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?”
King Warms… The monster screamed and crawled like a worm with his body.
I scolded him calmly like a teacher.
“That’s why I told you. I wouldn’t have destroyed that crown if you hadn’t tried to reach it. But the deplorable you went and reached for the symbol of authority, the crown.”
“As expected of Master… You told him everything. The throne is not taken selfishly, but bestowed by the surrounding people.”
“That’s right. Masatsugu-sama tried to teach King Warms that by destroying the crown.”
“To bestow that much mercy to King Warms who’s fallen to a monster, usually this is impossible.”
“I hope King Warm will notice the kindness of Naomi-sama.”
I nodded to the words of the girls.
“However, on the other hand it will take time for him to learn. That’s all I can do for today. I hope he’ll continue to learn. I’m looking forward to it, former King. Time to change topic…”
I’m going to ask what’s been bothering from the start.
“Your appearance, while I think that it’s suitable for you, did it come naturally? Or perhaps somebody changed you?”
I asked this monster these questions.
Author’s note:
I’ve started a new work!
“I was banished from the Hero’s party however, I’m glad that they’ve left me. I won’t help you guys in the future if you ask me, I’m hoping you guys can deal with it. Great Muse, I’m troubled if you come with me, you know?”
I reccomend it to those who enjoy reading “Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraita kedo, Naze ka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken”.
