"Once the hero defeats the Demon King, the world will be at peace, and he can marry the princess and reach the pinnacle of life!"
That's the plot of a proper, classic shonen manga. But what is the Demon King supposed to do?
The hero destroyed her castle, and she almost lost herself along with it. Now she doesn't even have the money to rebuild.
The Demon King, left in rags after her defeat, tries to figure out where she can earn money to repair her castle.
"Why don't we just make the heroes work for us and earn money?"
The human alchemist who had come from another world to serve the Demon King, Lai Catherine, offered her suggestion with a kind smile.
"For example, we could infiltrate the enemy's ranks and get them to buy low-cost healing potions from our shop at inflated prices?"
Looking at her innocent-faced subordinate, the Demon King fell silent in thought.
Once the castle is rebuilt, should I put up a pretty streetlamp for this adorable alchemist?
