Chapter 288 - 288: Amuse me... (Bonus Chapter)
[Ding! Frieren has started her live stream!]
Seated on one side of the throne and looking at the demons kneeling below, Frieren was barely holding back the urge to blast them with magic. At the urging of viewers in the chat, she began the live broadcast.
Stella: "Where are the demons?"
Frieren: "They're right in front of me, kneeling."
Stella: "Huh? Aren't they human?"
Yukinoshita Yukino: "They do look extremely similar to humans, but judging from their eyes and what might be ornamental horns, they're probably not human."
Frieren: "Many demons have deceptive appearances that mimic humans."
Tohru: "It's not hard to imagine such biological diversity, but why are they kneeling to Rei Ao? Aren't you all planning to exterminate the demon race?"
Shiba Miyuki: "Well, we're all rather curious about that, too."
Shiba Miyuki: "Probably because Rei Ao brought us to this Demon King's castle, killed the Demon King, and became the new Demon King—something like that."
Sakurajima Mai: "???"
Hiiragi Shinoa: "That's so like him."
Kato Megumi: "This... certainly seems like something Rei Ao would find amusing."
Busujima Saeko: "So, does Rei Ao plan on wiping them out here?"
Rei Ao: "Of course it's not that simple."
He glanced at Toudou Touka.
"You want to fight the strong ones here?"
"That's right," Toudou Touka replied, eyes burning with anticipation. She could already sense the powerful aura emanating from these demons. The seven among them, known collectively as the 'Seven Sages of Destructions,' did possess something formidable. Their levels ranged from about 20 to 25.
"In that case, let's put them to good use. You lot—have a match with her," Rei Ao ordered.
" ... "
Schlacht and the Seven Sages of Destructions glanced at one another. Among them, the demon Macht, nicknamed the 'Macht of the Golden Land,' voiced his doubts: "My Lord, Demon King, but they are humans."
The other Seven Sages of Destructions also showed killing intent in their eyes. After all, in this world, no intelligent creature wasn't an enemy or prey to demons.
Rei Ao merely cast him a sidelong glance without saying a word. Then he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Boom!
Flames erupted along the walls, burning the top of the castle to ashes. With the view no longer obstructed, the Demon King's castle in its entirety lay visible from this high vantage point.
Demons packed every inch of the castle. They, too, saw Rei Ao.
"We greet the Demon King!"
Their first reaction was the same as that of the Seven Sages of Destructions: they respectfully knelt, their voices booming so loudly they shook the air.
Yet Rei Ao felt nothing. He had no intention of actually becoming this world's lowly Demon King.
He stood up, swept his gaze over the demons, and said coldly, "All demons who pledge loyalty to me—commit suicide."
"!!!"
At that, Schlacht and the Seven Sages of Destructions exchanged puzzled looks. The demons commanded to take their own lives were even more at a loss. None of them obeyed, because a demon's instinct is to survive by any means necessary; how could they possibly kill themselves, even under the Demon King's orders?
"As expected, demons in this world have no such thing as absolute loyalty," Rei Ao remarked with disappointment, shaking his head. "So be it; just die, then."

Snap!
With another snap of his fingers—
Boom!
A tidal wave of flame swept across every demon except Schlacht and the Seven Sages of Destructions. They were burned in an instant without even the chance to scream, becoming fleeting fireworks within the Demon King's castle.
In just a moment, where once there had been a massive crowd in the castle, nothing remained.
"!!!"
The Seven Sages of Destructions were dumbstruck, and even Shiba Miyuki and Toudou Touka looked on in shock. So many demons died in a single instant—it was inconceivable. Especially since many of them looked human.
Shiba Miyuki gazed at Rei Ao with a profound sense of awe. Frieren, on the other hand, felt more surprise than horror—and then joy. Wiping out so many demons at once thrilled her. Before, she had to pretend to be weak to lure out clever demons just to kill them; it was so time-consuming that new demons were born faster than she could eliminate them.
"My Lord Demon King..."
At this point, Schlacht and the Seven Sages of Destructions realized something was terribly wrong. The Demon King was rebelling against them!
All of them instinctively prepared to run for their lives. The death of their comrades did not sadden them; as demons, they had little empathy—only the desire to survive at all costs.
However—
An overwhelming ocean of magical power descended upon them.
"Ugh!"
All eight demons froze in place, staring at Rei Ao in horror. His bottomless magical power far surpassed that of the former Demon King. Where in the world had this Demon King come from?!
One of them, a pink-haired female demon with two horns on her head and keen sensitivity to magical energy, was so overwhelmed that she collapsed, trembling. A trickle of fluid spread beneath her where she had lost control in fear.
"I never said you could leave," Rei Ao remarked. Pointing to the weakest among the Seven Sages of Destructions, the level 20 demon, he said coldly, "You can start by having a match with her. Amuse me, and perhaps I'll spare you."
Toudou Touka stepped forward, drawing her long blade. "Come."
" ... "
The Seven Sages of Destructions realized they couldn't escape. The chosen demon charged Toudou Touka at once. The rest stood aside, having given up on fleeing. In their hearts, they hoped the one currently fighting would be killed, thus giving them a chance to take the stage and earn some slim chance of survival.
At that moment, Frieren tugged on Rei Ao's sleeve and asked, "You're not really going to let them live, are you?"
She was already gripping her staff. Exterminating these few demons would effectively eradicate the demon race—she didn't want to lose this perfect opportunity.
Rei Ao patted her hand to calm her. "Spare them? It's not impossible."
But unfortunately for them, it wasn't their performance in battle he cared about. That was only for Toudou Touka's sake. He had no interest in watching a pointless fight; if anything, he'd rather enjoy a bit of beauty. Like that demon woman who'd just wet herself in fear.
Even now, she kept throwing timid glances Rei Ao's way, her eyes filled with indescribable terror.
"!!!"
Meeting his gaze was like a small animal shrinking back in fright.
