The spirit world resides within the spirit.

This statement sounds convoluted and strange, making it hard to understand... but that's the truth...

This might sound like a marketing ploy... So what exactly is this about "the spirit world inside the body"? I'm sure everyone is familiar with it, but let's find out together.

The spirit world resides within the spirit body; in fact, the spirit world is hidden within the spirit body. This may surprise you, but it is the truth...

Whatever.

...

To put it a little more seriously... it's actually very simple for a spirit like Youyou to go to the spirit world, but for a living person like Ira to go, they need a certificate and a coordinate.

It sounds mysterious, but it's really just... having Youyou and Ira stand in the center of the magic circle at the same time, and then quietly wait for the teleportation. That's one of the charms of the magic circle.

Users don't need to carefully study the specific function of each magic rune within the magic circle, whether it's used to save mana consumption or is the main component of the magic circle's activation... They don't need to understand these things, but they can still use it by simply copying the magic circle.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Satan Ye shouted happily. Recently, she had made great progress in combat... Under Ira's tutelage, coupled with her own powerful bloodline, she had already stepped one foot into the legendary realm.

Although I don't know when it started, it seems that the legendary level is no longer considered powerful.

Of course, Ira only taught her about combat. As for the basics of governance... he told Shirina about them. Both of them were quite helpless about the current situation, but they really couldn't have any expectations for Satan Ye's domestic affairs abilities.

Fortunately, what monsters need most of the time is a demon king who shouts, "Awooooo, everyone, follow me!"

Standing blankly in the center of the magic circle, Youyou nodded as Xilina instructed her to "take good care of Prince Satan Ye." She really hadn't finished her own work yet... and now she was being dragged around like this.

While being taken to the world of the evil god's followers by Ira, Yuuyu was collecting data on population and income in the Demon King's territory. After returning, she was busy compiling statistics on material consumption after the relocation and working with Senata to plan new offering routes and messages for other territories.

I've been really busy with work lately...

"Sernata, I'm entrusting the task of informing the others about the search for the [Ruins of the Evil God] to you."

As Ira gave these instructions, he looked at Xiao Gang, who had also come to see him off, and said, "Regarding the cement road issue, my previous arrangements were somewhat flawed. I forgot to tell you that we should prioritize areas far from the sea to avoid the cement being affected by calamities related to the [sea]."

"Temporarily join the logistics work with Taran and the other orcs. Wolf, you can teach them some basics and let them do some assisting work. The main craftsmen are still you and the werewolves."

"Furthermore, taking advantage of the activation of the magic circle, I'd like to reiterate the arrangements I made for Xiao Hei, Lotia, and Hong Ke... Although there haven't been any major changes... I remember I said before that..."

"..."

"Teleportation activated! Passengers, please remain silent, or I'll slap you across the face!"

Vera interrupted Ira with her shout, and looking at everyone who was giving her grateful looks, she quickly channeled her magic under Ira's "you're awesome" expression, preventing Ira from continuing her incessant chatter.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

Satan Ye laughed happily... obviously because Vera said, "I'll slap you across the face." Normally, this would have earned him a beating from Ira, but now Ira was inside the teleportation array.

To be honest, in a situation where he could be teleported away at any moment, he didn't dare to move around too much... just like when you're cleaning your ears, you don't dare to move around too much.

Although half of their bodies are outside the magic circle, it's unlikely that they'll be completely severed, but it's very possible that the teleportation target location will be off... The three of them might get separated, which would make it difficult for them to reunite.

"Yay! Let's go on an adventure with Mr. Ira!"

As Satanye said this, it had been a while since she had gone on adventures with Ira... For her, adventuring with Ira was really quite fun, at least more fun than being a proper king.

(Favignon: Hey hey hey, just like my daughter, great minds think alike!)

The reason Ira brought Satan Leaf with her this time was because of her race and identity... It's true that Ira went to the Spirit Realm to find an unclaimed body, but she also wanted to find the "soul dragon left in the Spirit Realm" that Ernie mentioned, and ask about the location of the Dragon Realm.

Satan Leaf is, after all, a dragon, a dragon species. Perhaps if we bring Satan Leaf along, the other party will be more agreeable...

While using violence to obtain information is acceptable, Ira has no intention of doing so unless necessary; he is not one to abuse power.

At least, Ira didn't define himself as that kind of person... It's just that this world worships strength too much, and strength itself is too useful, which has nothing to do with his own personality.

"But Mr. Ira, are you not going to continue assigning work?"

All the leaders' faces turned sour at Satan Ye's words... Although it wasn't bad, and it was hard to call it "long-winded," listening to Ira really required a lot of hard thinking while listening.

I'm just too tired...

"No need, we can talk about it when we get back... It's nothing particularly important."

As Ira said this, he couldn't possibly say anything very important when he could be teleported away at any moment... Everyone knew this, which is why Vera interrupted him so abruptly.

If it were something urgent, they wouldn't have waited until now; they would have appeared in each leader's room immediately to start assigning tasks... This is the trust everyone has in Ira.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ira, Satan Ye, and Youyou disappeared into the portal... Before leaving, Ira gave Vera a look, leaving her to interpret it herself.

"..."

"Gurgle~"

Vera could be clearly heard swallowing.

"Miss Lich..."

The elven girl, whose name Ira still doesn't know, was rescued by Ira, Satan, and Wolf on their way back to the Demon King's territory from the Orc Kingdom and has been serving as a ranger mentor to the Orc girls. She spoke of this, then kindly reminded Vera—

"Lord Ira's eyes seemed to say, 'You want to slap me? You wait, when I get back, I'll show you what a real slap is.'"

The elven girl said this.

Vera: "Stop talking, I'm breaking out in a cold sweat! Aren't you being a little too specific?!"
