Suzuki is Cute Even In A Savage World

"HEY! Are you going to work or what?"

In the Castle of Syness, occupied under the direct supervision of the special attack force of the Demon Lord's Army, the Thunder-Lance Charge, the angry voice of Nephira, the commander, roared out. The demon soldiers were working on repairing the castle, terrified of Nephira's scolding.

Like Suzukiland, Syness Castle had also suffered damages from the invasion of the Salvation Crusaders. Nephira reprimanded the bird-headed demon Pholus.

"You have not repaired anything at all!! What the hell have you been doing!?"

"I sincerely apologize!!"

There were two reasons for Nephira's irritation.

The first reason was that she had asked Pholus to repair the castle while she was in the imperial capital for the Demon Lords Army's campaign meeting, but he hadn't been able to do as well as she had hoped. And the other reason was…

(Geez! I can't believe Suzuki, we just came back, and he went off to Suzukiland!)

For some time now, Suzuki and she had not been able to spend time alone together. The true reason she accepted Suzuki's request to become a commander adjutant was because she wanted to keep him close by her side. For Nephira, the recent short excursion to the Demon Lord's Army's campaign meeting was supposed to be a honeymoon opportunity.

However, the Meru-Kiru sisters had come with them to the Imperial Capital under the pretense of being top-brass staff of the Thunder-Lance Charge. Nephira gritted her teeth as she recalled the dragoon carriage they had taken on the journey.

"Uh—. Rest time, not yet—?"

"Stay patient, Meru. We are almost at the Imperial Capital. Suzuki will be able to pee-pee in a little while, ya know!"

"No, I don't need to…"

"Really? Are you holding it in!? If you really need to do it, put it in this jar!"

"I'm telling you it's FINE! This pet treatment, I've had enough of it!"

"I'm worried you're going to die from bursting your bladder with pee-pee!"

"I'm not gonna hold it in until my bladder bursts."

"Uuhh—! Older Sister—!"

"W-What's wrong, Meru?"

"Sorry—! I peed my pants—!"

(No, why did you WET yourself!!)

Nephira's head ached as she recalled the top brass's failure. It wasn't just on the road. The Meru-Kiru sisters were constantly on both sides of Suzuki, arm-in-arm with him.

(What is it with you gals!? That's my role, isn't it?!)

She would not take the Meru-Kiru sisters anymore. Nephira thought about Suzuki while making a firm pledge in her heart.

(Suzuki… Why aren't you by my side even though you're the commander adjutant? I am your Lord, aren't I? I'm your Lord, I mean, your precious person, or rather, your lover, right?… Anyway, it's not that I'm lonely! Sigh–!)

Nephira was in tears for a moment, but when the bird-headed demon Pholus came running toward her, she immediately tightened her face, exuding the dignity of a commander.

"Lady Nephira. It appears that the crystal ball in your quarters is rumbling."

"I understand. I will be on my way. Now, you must make sure the demons hasten the repairs."

……

When Nephira opened the door to her quarters, she heard a sound like small winged insects. A large crystal ball on the desk showed the smiling face of Serphiano, the Demon Lord's Advisor.

"Yaho—. Hello—."

"Yes. Hello."

The three-eyed demon Serphiano, who boasted the greatest intelligence within the Demon Lord's army, had also succeeded in remote communication using a crystal ball powered by magical power.

"So Nephira. What is going on? How is Leirune?"

"Yes. Things are finally calming down."

"I'm glad to hear that. Really, it's been a bit of a mess over here too, ya know…"

"Could it be that the Salvation Crusaders are the Imperial City!?"

"No, no. That's not the reason. Currently, we are in the process of reorganizing the Imperial Capital into the Demon Capital."

"Ah, Indeed."

It was not a pleasant feeling to use a city built by humans without changing its name. In order to show the power of the Lord Demon Lord, the facilities in use should be reconstructed for demons as much as possible——at the recent Demon Lord's Army campaign meeting, such an opinion was expressed.

(I think I should change the name of Syness Castle too. Such as "Suzuki and Nephira's Love Castle"! Ufufu!)

"…Nephira. Are you listening?"

"I-I apologize. I was lost in thought."

"I mentioned that the Imperial Capital is in the middle of renovations, right? Currently, due to a combination of factors, we are now providing a place for education of new demons."

"Hou. That's a wonderful thing."

"Right? That's why, ya know. I would like to invite Suzuki to join us for a four-day, three-night demon induction course!"

"Hou Hou. That's wonderful… huh? S-Suzuki…? R-Right now, what did you say?"

"I said, we're inviting Suzuki to participate in the demon induction course."
