early morning.

It was still an extremely calm morning as usual.

Compared with the previous few days, the only change was the sleeping environment.

In any case, the feeling of sleeping on a haystack is completely different from sleeping on a big bed. Beelzebub also had a good sleep that day.

He didn't wake up until Orianna came to the room and called him. It was already past midnight.

Because of this, he received a look from Alice when he just arrived at the east restaurant for dinner. After all, she had been starving and waited for everyone to have breakfast. If Beelzebub hadn't been there, she would have eaten it an hour or two ago.

The breakfast problem has been solved.

After that, Alice stopped Beelzebub who was about to practice sword practice.

"The clothes you are wearing are not suitable for you. Since you are going to live here temporarily, you should prepare some changes of clothes. In addition, including toiletries and other disposable items, there are no disposable items for you to waste here, so you can

You have to go and buy all these things yourself.”

Alice threw a bag of gold coins to him.

"Let me tell you, when Lucifer gives you money later, you must return my share and the money from this bag of gold coins."

This stingy washboard.

Beelzebub complained silently in his heart.

It is clear that the manor's expenses are very high, whether it is the materials to maintain the magic formation or the manor's daily consumption, it is not a small amount.

But Alice always lived in a tight situation, and in her opinion, there was no need to spend anything as long as it was not necessary.

Just like yesterday's dinner and today's breakfast.

Even though Orianna's cooking was exquisite, the actual cost of these two meals might not even be thirty gold coins.

Of course, this is just very shabby compared to demon kings of the same level.

Ten gold coins can be enough for a civilian to live frugally for a week, and thirty gold coins are equivalent to the expenses of a family of three for a week.

This level of life is still very good compared to that of civilians and some low-level hunters.

The expenses required for the manor are far more than that.

Magic materials are very expensive, especially to maintain the normal operation of magic within the manor, which requires more magic materials and higher quality.

Beelzebub didn't know how much the manor cost, but he was aware of the maintenance costs of his previous home.

Five thousand gold coins a month.

His house was not even half the size of the Lorna mansion.

Even if we use the simplest conversion method, the maintenance cost of this mansion will not be less than 10,000 gold coins per month. Such an expense should only be a drop in the bucket for a successor of the Demon King.

However, a certain demon king was so poor that a thousand gold coins could make her forget her purpose, and almost made Beelzebub and Helwell escape on the spot.

Sure enough, this guy is a miser...

Beelzebub thought silently in his heart.

But then again, if he knew that Alice was actually close to bankruptcy and knew why she went bankrupt, he probably wouldn't think so.

A chest can be used to dock airplanes and a washboard for washing clothes. Do you think that place can grow?

Don't be kidding, this kind of thing is simply impossible!

What...?! You said you spent hundreds of millions of gold coins to buy some holy tree** in an attempt to change your destiny?!

I understand, I finally understand.

No wonder you are so poor and spend so much money on useless work. You are indeed the strongest spendthrift I have ever seen!

If he really knew, he would probably say all these words without reservation.

Tell me, tell me how many snacks you can buy with so much money.

Instead of dreaming about those unrealizable dreams, why can't we focus on the present and be a good salted fish? Isn't it so good?

"Can Mr. Beelzebub find the way? If not, I can go shopping with you."

"No."

Beelzebub did not intend to trouble others.

He still admired Orianna very much.

This manor covering an area of ​​more than ten acres, as well as the mansion inside, are kept spotless by her every day. If it were another person, she would have died of exhaustion, right?

Sure enough, every maid's housework talent is unsurpassed.

And after what happened yesterday, Orianna's identity became more and more mysterious in his eyes.

Being able to attract the attention of the Elders, and Alice deliberately separating the places where he and Orianna lived, all illustrate this point.

After bidding farewell to the two girls for the time being, Beelzebub walked towards the city of Kassela.

The Lorna Mansion is only a dozen kilometers away from the city of Casella. This distance is not too far if you use your strength. At least at Beelzebub's current speed, you can reach Casella in about ten minutes.

city.

However, on the road to Casella, we always encounter some immeasurable things.

Just like...

Robbery?

"I feel that this kind of bloody plot is not suitable for my status as a salty fish."

He looked helplessly at the surrounded convoy ahead.

If he guessed correctly, it should be a passing caravan. As long as he rescued this caravan, he would be able to unlock a new side mission.

emm... This really feels like a slow RPG game.

Although he was complaining silently in his heart, he decisively picked up the holy sword and rushed forward.

Next to the convoy, hunters wearing leather armor were fighting with some spotted gnolls.

The hunters have rich combat experience and strong strength, but the number of jackals is several times theirs, so the outcome of this battle is still a little difficult to determine.

Of course, that was only before a certain salted fish was not ready to intervene.

"The demons at least look like humans, and I probably have quite a relationship with the demons, so there is nothing wrong with helping the demons at this time."

After all, he is also a brave man of the Holy See. It is unreasonable no matter how you look at it, for a brave man to help the demons. He still found a suitable reason for himself before taking action.

"Keep this research result first. The high-level hunters will help delay the time. We only need to delay the time. There are many jackals in this area. If we fight head-on, we will suffer the loss in the end."

In the melee circle of the motorcade, a demon with sharp blades on his elbows was killing the approaching gnolls while giving instructions in a leisurely manner.

After hearing his order, the positions of the demons in the battle circle began to change. Some moved inward and began to activate the defensive array to prepare for a breakout. Some stayed on the outside to buy time for those who were activating the array.

The pressure on those resisting outside suddenly increased, but it was still within an acceptable range.
Chapter completed!
