Cronpis deliberately summoned a primitive demon that would cause most people to have a nervous breakdown just by seeing and knowing its true identity, but it seemed to have no effect on Mishra, who was used to Rudra and Velgrendo.
Misra seemed to say casually: "Let the demons under Demon King Qi compete with Yu in this area. If Yu loses, will his soul be taken away?"
"If you want, it's not impossible. In fact, all it will take away is your time to paint." Cronpis said with a smile.
Even so, Mishra didn't particularly want to choose, what kind of devil's contract takes away the time for painting? He could see that the monster princess was messing around, anyway, she just wanted him to come out and rule the faction for Masayuki's use, and the investigation revealed that he liked it
Painting, would taking away this time allow him to use the extra time to assist Masayuki?
Sure enough, monsters are similar to humans, and the drama is so publicized that you can't watch it with your brain.
But in fact, rejection is also very problematic——
Last time, other important officials from the empire came to lobby him. This time, they went directly to the monster princess and the devil. Next time, Velgrendo would personally look for trouble. She would definitely be burned to ashes if he offended her.
"Well, if you keep showing an attitude of being uncooperative and not staying away from the political arena, and letting your family members misunderstand that you want to go against Masayuki and take action, I think Velgryndo will definitely burn you."
Lawnpis reminded kindly.
Mishra secretly thought that this threat was too explicit, but he felt relieved after saying this.
Isn't it just painting? Will he still lose to those demons who spend all their time thinking about how to improve their realm in internal fighting?
"Anyway, give me a painting that combines my temperament with my public deeds and legends. How about this? Or like this? Or is it better to combine some of my own imagination and creation?" Crownpis changed several poses one after another,
ask.
About an hour later——
"Leyin, you draw quickly, but this... how should I put it, is too inhumane?" Crounpis looked at Leyin's painting and commented.
"Humph, this is my style."
"No... I didn't seem to praise you just now. You must think I'm inhumane after seeing this painting?"
"Do you have any humanity?"
"Okay, you won the argument on this point. I think Diavolo will like it with his personality... Well, maybe it will be popular if it is circulated in the Demon King's territory. Hey, it's the cake you want."
Crownpis took out a large eight-inch cake made of Zhu Cai.
This is a black forest cherry cream cake. Zhu Na even added strawberry slices as decoration on her own initiative. It had been cut in advance, and Crounpisi picked out a piece and handed it to her.
Lei Yin forked a piece and began to review various aspects: "The appearance seems to be no different from ordinary chocolate fruit cake. I imprisoned the chef of a super first-class hotel and forced him to teach all his skills to me, so my taste is also super first-class.
This...is delicious...eh? Super delicious?! The appearance of the mezzanine obviously looks very simple, but the taste of each layer is different, so many flavors can be coordinated so beautifully, no matter where you eat it
The different aspects are amazing, the position and proportion of this material are all under absolute control!"
"Let me state it first, although there are indeed many types of butter, there are not many types of raw materials. It is all made by arrangement and combination in different proportions. There are no particularly expensive and troublesome ingredients that directly give diners pleasure. The so-called super-class chefs,
Many of them are obtained by obtaining expensive materials and means - with money... Ah, if you say that chocolate can be considered a luxury product, then I didn't say so."
Cocoa beans, the raw material of chocolate, were originally relatively rare, but the Demon Kingdom, which is located in the Jura Forest and has a considerable proportion of tree fairies under its rule, has turned many common sense luxury crops and materials into everyday items.
"If the chef you imprisoned was before the era when [Summon from Another World] was spread by the Demon King Leon, I think it is natural that your skills are not as good as that of others." Cronpis continued to strike.
"...I'm willing to give in. Is this a technology from another world?"
"It's not enough to learn techniques from people from another world who are good at cooking. Shuna's skills and craftsmanship are genuine."
"It turned out to be Shuna-sama. During the cooking competition at the second half of the Demon King's Feast, I, the perfect maid, could tell that she was extraordinary in both craftsmanship and service. Even the cake that served as a supporting role in the feast was
Such a state."
"Zhu Na's class is lower than yours, right? Doesn't it matter if you call me "sir"?
"No, I don't think it matters at all! However, after evolving into the Demon Queen, we never evolved again."
"The conditions for evolving into the Demon King are not high, right? Even with Qi Yi here, it would be ten times more difficult, just kill a hundred thousand people and spread the fear. No idiot anywhere has agreed with you in so many years.
A devil’s contract with a price of 100,000 people?”
"Who would dare to do that kind of thing after Mr. Qiyi came here once? Junbai still broke the contract that time."
"Hmm, humans have longer memories than imagined, right?"
While talking, Lei Yin ate more than half of the eight-inch cake alone.
Kroenpisi was already used to Zhu Cai's food, so he didn't care about it. He came to Mishra's drawing board to look at it, clasped his hands together and said happily: "Oh, oh, yes, although it is a bit different from my taste.
, but this is the style of this world that not only fits the noble style of the aristocracy, but also can be appreciated by the people. It is better than my comic style."
"I haven't finished this painting yet," Misra said.
"I know, I still know this kind of thing. It's just that I took a peek at the future. I would be happier if you could break through the future I saw and become more outstanding. You are qualified. If you are interested, come and give
"Four Demon Sages" paint?" Crowenpis asked, clapping his hands.
"Are you referring to dark transactions?"
Misra knows that there are many such transactions in the country, because the empire does not recognize any foreign policy, which has brought a lot of trouble to the circulation of goods. Dark transactions are also beneficial to trade and people's livelihood in special periods. Of course, because of the convenience of making profits, sometimes it is enough
There are many nobles participating in the game to challenge power, but Kondo has always turned a blind eye to the non-evil parts.
"If Masayuki is willing to open it to the outside world, it won't be considered a dark deal. Well, to be precise, this is a dark deal only for Demon King Rimuru personally. So people with no influential status are really not qualified, hehehe."
Cronpis smiled.
"It's really hard for me to understand."
From a common sense perspective, how can an emperor or a great man not have his portraits, sculptures and other works of art circulated?
Like Rimuru, his image as a work of art has to live and die, which is definitely weird.
