Capítulo 118: A New And Unexpected Familiar

-----

I suddenly realized something as I saw Furoh's memories. The Demon King had used money to lure the demons into battle.

One of the "royal demons" as they called them, who were from families of high society and strength compared to the "lesser demons" like Furoh and the other demons from the slums, had come to offer money in exchange for anyone that became a soldier for the Demon King.

This was something new I didn't even know about. Furoh, who was barely living on scraps and hunting little monsters to sell their magic cores, suddenly found a golden opportunity to show off his strength. Plus, he was even being paid ten coins upfront.

He immediately went to take the job but… it ended up going badly.

The other soldiers always ridiculed him and laughed at him. Many bullied him and even sometimes stepped on his long worm-like tail. Whenever he tried to fight back against them, they would gang up on him and leave him within an inch of death.
