It's so convenient to work for the Demon King.

This is Ira's idea. Imagine if a nobleman in the empire were to implement some policy, he would first have to deal with disobedient and hypocritical subjects, as well as serfs who were completely illiterate and could not understand commands.

Then there were the subordinates who would trip him up from time to time, the nobles' own sycophants who constantly boasted about how well the policies were implemented and how effective they were, and finally, the noble colleagues who squeezed out this whimsical nobleman at every turn.

Then the policy just rotted away, either being completely forgotten or abandoned without any chance of being revised.

If it weren't for Yuther's endorsement throughout Ira's journey, and Isabella's unconditional support after Yuther's death, he would certainly have faced obstacles at every turn within the Empire.

Although Isabella rebelled a little in the end.

...

On the other hand, it's much simpler for the Demon King to do what he wants: obedient monsters who have a sense of belonging to him, clever and capable fairies who don't lie, and a small number of intelligent colleagues.

Having brains is a tremendous advantage, because many nobles lack brains. This is not a joke, but rather Ira's experience from working in the Empire for many years.

*Knock knock knock~*

"Lord Ira."

Shirina gently knocked on the door, and her voice came from outside. She had started addressing Ira as "Madam" at some point, and said, "If possible, we can settle the payment for the fertilizer."

Yes, Ira had previously informed them about the fertilizer's process and formula... Although it's a very simple logic, often it's precisely this kind of simple logic that makes things go smoothly.

Therefore, intelligence on Iraq is valuable and should indeed be compensated.

Even though it's not explicitly stated now, Ira has practically joined the Demon King's camp. But even if it's stated explicitly, she still needs a reward, one called a compensation and the other a reward.

If the emperor thinks highly of you, he will personally bestow such a reward or award you in court. If he does not want your status to be elevated too much or to make you a target of public criticism, he will send a servant to bestow the reward privately.

But Satan Yeh probably didn't have that thought, and he didn't understand the art of reward at all.

So Ira wouldn't think about such a question, nor would he care. He only hoped that Shirina wouldn't actually take Vera's nonsense seriously and bring two loli maids with her.

"Please come in, the door is not locked."

As she said this, Ira turned the book she hadn't finished reading upside down on the table, then looked at the loli succubus following behind Sirina as she pushed open the door. She was quite cute and looked very respectful.

"..."

Ira guessed correctly, but only half right. He did bring a loli, but not two, and she was from the same race, not a maid.

"Greetings, Lord Ira."

The little girl greeted us like that.

Under Ira's questioning gaze, Shilina introduced him, saying, "He is not a reward, but a servant assigned to you... He is the most powerful of the succubi, who once beat three goblins to death when he was young."

"cough……"

Hearing this, Ira couldn't hold back anymore. To be honest, his impression of succubi was that they were monsters who killed people with illusions and whips, and spies who used improper means to bewitch nobles and steal information. Now, the sudden change in the image was a bit hard for him to accept.

But such a succubus is clearly an anomaly among succubi.

"Thank you for your concern, but I don't need it."

Ira shook his head as he refused, still not believing he needed a maid to serve him. Except for children... no modern person would be used to having someone help them change clothes.

The loli succubus seemed somewhat disappointed by this.

Shirina nodded to indicate that she understood, but still smiled and explained, "He won't affect your life, but he can run errands for you. For example, last night, I didn't have to ask Lady Ira if you wanted hot water for a bath."

That makes sense. Last night, Ira originally planned to sleep fully clothed, but after Shirina came over and suggested it, Ira thought taking a shower would be a good idea.

"If you had your own servant, you wouldn't need to personally inform Miss Vera if your clothes were torn, and you wouldn't need to personally go to the fairies to send things over... By the way, the pudding is delicious."

That seems to make sense, but...

Ira thought for a moment, then gently shook his head, looking apologetically at the loli succubus and Sirina, and said, "But I'm not used to having maids following me around."

"But I am a male servant."

The loli succubus interrupted, saying this...

"..."

Ira: "???"

"Yes, his name is Tikkap, you can call him Little Tikkap, he is a rare male succubus."

As she said this, Sirina agreed with the loli succubus's words, saying, "Lord Ira doesn't need to worry about feeling uncomfortable. He will stay in the training ground to train and practice combat as usual. You can just tell him what to do."

Ira looked at the cute and petite "loli" in front of her, her gaze sweeping over his handsome face. Looking at his heart-shaped succubus tail, she couldn't tell that he was male no matter how she looked at him.

"So, I need to go to the training ground to find... him?"

Ira asked this while rubbing his temples. Before he transmigrated, the term "crossdresser" hadn't become popular online, so his current worldview had some minor issues.
