It was immensely peaceful . Already three days had pa.s.sed since Haizen sent the letter to the so called home country .

At first the reply was supposed to come immediately―― But it appeared like it wouldn’t come any time soon . Of course Haizen was modestly saying that, ‘Most likely the opinions on how to welcome the Evil Dragon Lord are divided . ’

In other words, there had to be a heated dispute going on between the bigshots whether they should invite or reject me firmly . To cordially welcome the highly infamous “Evil Dragon” as the trump card in subjugating the Demon King, or consider the possible risk that inviting the “Evil Dragon” to one’s country could bring and instead maintain their distance . If they were to welcome me, what etiquette would it require . If they were to keep their distance, what means would be necessary to avoid spoiling my mood . It should be something along these lines .

“Hnnn―… I don’t want to cause too much trouble so we’ll wait for a bit longer and if there’s still no reply, let’s leave by ourselves, I guess . Once we do that they’ll be able to take it easy, saying ‘The Evil Dragon Lord didn’t wait for the reply and set out on a journey somewhere . ’”

“I see, as expected of Evil Dragon Lord . The puny humans’ political issues aren’t even worth considering, is that right? Moreover we must step on the road to domination and defeating the Demon King as soon as possible . ”

“Yeah, but let’s wait a little more, okay? I want to let off some of the exhaustion here that piled up lately . ”

While saying so, I was busy lying in rapture inside Haizen’s guest room . The smoke rising from my joints was due to moxibustion, a therapy made possible due to medicinal herbs mixed by the medics . It supposedly works like a charm for all kinds of illnesses caused by aging and moving too much, like arthritis or stiffness .

Thanks to the medicine given to me by Ariante my figure appeared like that of my youth, but for some reason it felt like my stamina didn’t really return completely . It seemed like the bill for living confined for many years wouldn’t be settled that easily .

“As a matter of course . After all the Demon King’s subjugation is possible only thanks to the Evil Dragon Lord’s strength . Curing this fatigue is nothing else but the first step to ruling over this world . ”

“Thanks for putting it that way . Oh right Rēko, could you ma.s.sage the area around my shoulders this time?”

“Certainly . ”

Rēko was giving me a ma.s.sage by hitting my shoulders with the edges of her hands . She insisted that she also had to do something for me when I was receiving moxibustion treatment so I asked her casually, but it turned out she was really good at it .

That’s when the sound of doors opening could be heard .

“Ermm Evil Dragon Lord, I’ve brought papa’s literature you wanted…”

It was Sheina carrying in her hands a pile of books . On her back was the spirit placed in a baby backpack . She was carrying the spirit around close to her hoping she’d get attached, but it seemed to have yielded no effect yet .

“Oh yeah, thanks . Could you leave it on the hallway right outside the room? As you can see I’m having moxibustion now, so if you were to leave it inside it’d stink of smoke . ”

“Evil Dragon Lord is currently relaxing . You can stand back . ”
