Chương 233: Is this idiot also one of the oldest demon kings?

After several days of trekking, the group finally arrived at the so-called underground labyrinth and began their exploration with great enthusiasm.

However, on their journey, when they heard Kenya and the other children, including Ryota, say that they wanted to be Demon Kings in the future, rather than so-called heroes, Yosei and his group were completely stunned.

The trio of Ailian continued to pretend they hadn't heard and focused on their guard duties.

Good heavens, these kids with the potential to be heroes all want to be demon kings!

Is this something Lord Rimuru and his comrades did intentionally, deliberately educating these children to be like this?

Although they had a good relationship with Lord Rimuru, now that they knew about his plan, wouldn't they be silenced?

However, what the trio didn't know was that after hearing the children's wishes and dreams, Yosei and Rimuru were also dumbfounded.

They had no selfish motives and always taught these children in a righteous and upright way.

It's obvious that this teaching has gone astray. Even if they are disappointed with humanity because of their past experiences, they can't all aspire to become demon kings.

Rimuru, in particular, had turned completely gray at this moment because he felt that he had let Shizu down.

She entrusted these children to him, but he raised them into a bunch of devils. What the hell is he going to do?

"Children, that Demon King is actually a villain, a bad guy."

Besides, those who become demon lords are usually monsters or demon humans; you are humans, so you are not suitable to be demon lords or anything like that.

Rimuru, on the other hand, is trying to mend things and correct the children's values so that they don't go further down the path of becoming a demon king.

Chloe, the quietest of the children, took out the magic suppression mask that Rimuru had given her as a precious treasure, and looked at Rimuru seriously, saying, "But Rimuru-sensei isn't a bad person."

You, along with Teacher Yangcheng and Teacher Jing, are the best people we've ever met.

As if responding to Chloe, Alice, who was holding a plush doll beside him and had a somewhat arrogant personality, spoke up with her precociousness: "That's right, Mr. Yangcheng, you guys are a hundred times better than those bad guys before."

Furthermore, I've heard that as long as you become the Demon King, you can do whatever you want and get whatever you desire.

In other words, as long as I become the Demon King, I can become Mr. Yangcheng's wife!

Heroes and demon kings can't be together, right? That's why I don't want to be a hero at all.

Upon hearing Alice's words, Rimuru was no longer the only one whose body had turned gray; Yosuke was also paralyzed.

Especially when Akagami and Shuna heard the blonde girl's words, the way they looked at Yoshinori was as if they were looking at a scumbag who was obsessed with lolis, which made Yoshinori feel quite heartbroken.

"I didn't expect that the challengers who came to explore the underground labyrinth this time would be such insightful and knowledgeable people."

That's right, the Demon King is both powerful and handsome. Mere heroes are nothing compared to him.

As Yang Cheng and the others were speaking, a golden sphere of light, about the size of a tennis ball, suddenly appeared in front of them and seemed to highly approve of what the little girls had just said.

Upon closer inspection, one will discover that the true form of this golden orb is actually a golden-haired fairy with transparent wings on its back.

The other person was definitely no more than 20 centimeters tall, but he perfectly demonstrated what it means to be short but speak in a high-pitched manner.

As the creator of the underground labyrinth, Ramiris had already sensed it when Yang Cheng and his group entered it.

For her, who usually has almost no entertainment activities, observing the challengers who are going through the challenges is one of her few sources of amusement.

Because the title of the Ancient Demon King is so intimidating, very few people usually come to challenge the maze.

Ramiris was quite pleased to suddenly see so many challengers today, so she kept a close watch on them.

Normally, she would only reveal herself after the challenger had passed the test, but Ramiris, who had just heard the children's evaluation of the "Demon King" and was very impressed, couldn't help but reveal herself.

She felt that people today had far too deep a prejudice against things like "demon kings".

Who says that "Demon King" must be a villain? This is clearly a prejudice against them and an arbitrary addition of a setting.

It's utterly unreasonable to consider the "Demon King" as a villain simply because he is an invincible and powerful being.

Leaving aside the other demon kings, Ramiris was, after all, the "Elf Queen" who once saved the world.

If the "Demon King" was truly a villain, would she have sacrificed all her power to save the world?

And then there's Guy, who's also a mediator of the world. It was he who stopped the enraged Milim, thus preventing the world from being destroyed.

So when Ramiris heard Rimuru teaching these children that the Demon Lord was a villain and a bad guy, she couldn't help but jump out and refute him.

"What is this little thing? A fairy? Isn't it said that we have to go deep into the labyrinth to find the so-called fairy home?"

Seeing Ramiris suddenly jump out and start talking to herself, everyone present obviously regarded her as an ordinary fairy and did not think of her as a demon king.

After all, "Labyrinth Fairy" Ramiris is one of the three oldest demon kings, along with "Destruction Tyrant" and "Dark Emperor".

Even the inexperienced trio of Ai Lian felt that the oldest demon king should be a more majestic and powerful figure, certainly not the figurine in front of them.

"Hey, you are all extremely rude. I was originally going to let you skip the maze exploration stage and go straight to the final test, just because these children are very insightful."

And yet you've been so rude to me! Are you ready to face the Demon King's wrath?

Before Ramiris could finish speaking, her body was flicked away by Rimuru's finger.

Through the analysis of the "Great Sage," he was astonished to discover that the golden-haired fairy in front of him was indeed named "Ramilis," one of the oldest demon kings.

However, regardless of his magical power or personality, Rimuru found it very difficult to associate the Ramiris in front of him with the so-called oldest demon lord.

"She is indeed the Demon Queen Ramiris. The reason she doesn't seem strong now is because she lost the power of the 'Elf Queen' in order to save the world and became the Fairy Queen she is now."

Ramiris, who has lost her power, will be reborn and her power will be restored. She is probably in a period of weakness right now.

Otherwise, even as the Fairy Queen, Ramiris's power far surpasses that of an ordinary Demon Lord; this is what Milim and Frey told me.

Ramiris was initially taken aback, wondering how Yang Cheng knew so much, but when she heard the names Milim and Frey, Ramiris suddenly realized.
