Today the master is still waiting for me on the throne on the first floor, and I still greet the master as usual, but now I'm not ashamed of it after getting used to it. I cannot help but sigh that getting used to habit is really terrible.

After the maid left, the master stepped down from the throne, her heels clacking. And I looked up at her, the appearance of the little girl from the dream overlapping with that of the master. which was indeed the master's childhood.

The master looked down at me. Seeing her clear, cold eyes, I lowered my head hurriedly .

Then she walked ahead, and I followed her.

The master walked out of the gate with the sunrise, and I stepped on her figure.

"We’re not going to train today."

"Yes."

But where was taking me if I wasn't training?

"Take you to meet the five generals and some important officials of our demon clan."

------

The master pushed open the door of a small palace in front of me, and I followed her through the door.

The floor was made of brown bricks, the walls were of a jade white hue, a few potted plants were placed in the corners of the hall. In the middle of the hall there was a long table covered with a white cloth.

A few people at the table stood up and bent down to salute the master when they saw her enter.

The master sat on a stool on the short side of the rectangular table, which I thought it was a single couch.

So where do I sit?

However, the master did not answer the doubt in my mind, and I had to stand beside her not knowing what to do.

"This is Ilotia, right?"

The uncle-like black-haired demon on the master's left hand side looked at me, but this uncle-like demon looked very kind.

"Well, I brought her to meet you guys today."

In fact, I only know four people these days. Some guys who has left the palace where the master lives are training in the wilderness.

After they introduced themselves, I got a rough idea of their identities.

Heath Relia sat first on the right hand side of the master, her long purple hair tied in a bunch of ponytails, wearing an grey-white ceremonial dress. Her surname is Fuld, and she is the first of the five generals. She looks the same age of the master, so is she the head of the five generals?

Next to Heath Relia is named Nora, with long, fiery red hair hanging loosen, but without the pompous and aloof aura of the master, her whole body instead truly exudes a fervor that fits her red hair.

In this order is Vinales, black hair, and looks, like the master has the invincible coldness of the monarch. Next is Evelyn, but Evelyn is not a general. Evelyn is a civil official, equivalent to an official who collects and manages the political documents and so on.

Then the first one to the right of the master is the older man just now, whose name is Solz. Just counting down like this is Nigel, one of the five generals, Evans, the financial management, and Lod, the legal management.

Actually, they all have surnames, but I couldn't remember so many people's names plus surnames at once. Therefore, I just remembered their first names, and I was more impressed with Heath Relia. Naturally I remembered her surname as well.

The master stood up after the introduction.

"Ilotia, come with me."

"Yes."

Sure enough, my status is very low becauseI don't have a seat to sit from the beginning to the end. The master has said that I am very prestigious and powerful in the clan of the demons, which is supposed to coax me in order to make me obedient.

Anyway, I followed the master out of the door of this hall.

"You can go out of the castle and see. You can ask the soldier guards if you don't know the way, but don't run away. I can locate where you are at any time, if you don't come back before dark, you will be responsible for the consequences."

Then the master turned around and touched my head, I couldn't help but lower my head and feel the warmth of the master's palm, which was surprisingly warm.

When did the master become so gentle?

Yet only a moment later the master let go of her hand, and I looked up at her. She still had an indifferent expression.

There seemed to be something hanging from the top of my head, and I reached out to feel it, hard enough.

"It's a fake horn."

So it is why my master touched my head just now.. I don't know why I suddenly feel a little depressed. .

I nodded my head.

"Second floor."

The master released my ability, and I guess it was for my safety.

"I have to go back and listen to their reports, and it's useless for you to stay by my side. So I'll give you a chance to go out and see the kingdom of our demons."

"Yes, master."

Although I was a little bit downhearted because of the reason the master touched my head, I felt happier in my heart because of the satisfaction of gaining transient freedom.

--------

I wandered around the castle, and the soldiers seemed to know me. Seeing me, all soldiers call me” Ilotia-sama” reverently

I think the suprior feeling would be even stronger if I removed this damn collar from my neck.

After praising the otherworldly architecture, this gorgeous castle, I thought, I can't tarry in the castle any longer. I live here every day, and there will be a day when I can see the full view of the kingdom, but the opportunities to go out and play are rare.

I asked the soldiers for directions as soon as I saw them, and eventually I turned to the gate of the castle.

The soldiers guarding the castle saluted me and then let me out.

I looked out at the gates of the castle, and I could see a long way because of the second-ranked ability , .

The castle was on a hill, and below it were buildings lined up in a bustling fashion.

A little further away was a walled city. It seems that this castle is a city within a city, and I guess this is the imperial capital of the Demon Kingdom.
