The Soul You Don't Need Can Be Replaced with a Stainless Steel Basin

The king offered his soul to the devil in exchange for forbidden knowledge. —— Such rumors began to spread in the royal city. Taking a bath will cause the devil to take advantage of it, but the king ordered that everyone who meets him must take a bath; the witches bow their heads to the devil, but the king prohibits burning any witch and sends them to the royal city. Not even the cardinal could stop the king's determination, and his soul had apparently fallen completely into the hands of the devil. However, a few years have passed, but the country has not declined because of this, but... Seems to be better? Later, everyone slowly realized: Even if the royal city will be shrouded in the shadow of the devil, it seems that it is not impossible if His Majesty just sacrifices his own soul and does not affect others? At the same time, the devil, who had actually caught nothing, finally decided to do something. >>> "When will you make up your mind and hand your soul into my hands? Everyone thinks I deserve something." "Relax, my friend, it's Thursday, and it's fried chicken day in my faraway hometown." Intention: take a firm stand
