Reincarnated into a Werewolf, the Demon Lord Servants

And so it was decided that Glenstadt Castle was to hold a coronation for the succession of the name of Demon Lord. We could not proceed without any ceremony, and it would at least clear things up once and for all. It also had the purpose of being a memorial to the late Demon Lord.

Master had also decided to make Ryun Height her base after succeeding to the throne.

As far as public events held at Glenstadt, this looked to be the final one.

The night before the coronation.

In a room in Glenstadt Castle, I listened to Master as she spoke

Being the Demon Lord is not about simply being the strongest demon. You must possess god-like power; transcend.

You can say that, but even you cant be like the late Demon Lord.

There is no doubt that the Masters magical ability is world-class, but that is only when compared to humans and monsters.

She is not like the Demon Lord, whose power was like that of a god.

Master nodded at my words and continues.

That is right. But as long as I take on the name of Demon Lord, it wont do for me to be fainting every time I use some magic in succession.

You dont even get that far in the best of times

Even when she does try to use magic consecutively, not being able to gather the needed types of power prevents her. There is a need for her to wait a while.

It is very similar to cooldowns for magic and special attacks in games.

The truth is, there is something I can do about this problem of running out of magic power.

The words were so unexpected that it surprised me.

There is something you can do?

Yes. If I succeed in this, I too will gain powers equal to that of the Demon Lord

Gain?

maybe.

Thats certainly vague.

In truth, I should have tested it a long time ago, but the ever-worrying Demon Lord had long forbidden it.

Im lost.

In the first place, I do not understand the need for Master to become stronger.

Master, it is not as if you were chosen to be the Demon Lord due to your promising strength.

For the First Division; it was you and the late Demon Lords long and unyielding relationship of trust.

For the Second Division; it was your kindness that saved them twice.

For the Third Division; it was your character.

The reasons vary, but they all accepted you as Lord for factors other than strength. If anything, I think they do not care too much in regards to your strength.

If that is indeed so, then it might be the first time in the history of monsters.

However, Master just shook her head.

I understand that well. But I also understand that I cannot allow myself to be accidentally killed, either.

Master cleared her throat; suddenly a far away look came to her eyes.

Every time a Lord dies, the subjects are shaken. If the second Demon Lord were to die right after the loss of the late Demon Lord, then do you not think, that we would be moving even further from the Demon Lords will?

Thats, wellthats true.

If Master were to somehow die, it would certainly cause all of us who are already dispirited to become even more so.

Master cracked a smile and continued.

Dont worry. I have no intention of taking reckless chances. Theoretically, there is no real imminent danger to it.

Um, that actually has a very worrying ring to it.

Master gave a forced laugh.
