“Chapter 43: The Melancholy of the Shimmering Succubus Leader Mumuruu”
– Okay, first, let’s hear the whole story.
– Really!? Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ve been rejected by so many blacksmiths!
I still haven’t made a decision though. But she’s already jumping out of joy.
Where did the imposing aura of a high-level demon go?
– Uh, Grandmaster… Is this person really that powerful?
– As far as I know, she is. Or was, at least. “Mumuruu, the Shimmering Succubus Leader”, I’ve fought against her in the past. One of the 10 most powerful demons.
An elite among the elites.
Why did she come here, to this small guild in this town, out of all the places?
Let’s hear what she has to say.
– Mumuruu-san, could you please start from the beginning? Including whatever happened to this spear.
Needless to say, this spear is nothing normal. If it was, I would be able to make a replica in no time, but this looks like something out of my Level.
– Well, you see, it’s a long story.
Mumuruu told us everything up until before she arrived at Bay Road.

– Aaah~ We start working again in a month… I wanna rest more~.
In a world different to the humans’, the Succubus Leader Mumuruu was complaining in her room.
The demon world is divided into five areas, ruled by the Demon King and the five Four Fiendish Guardians.
No, that’s not a mistake.
The Four Fiendish Guardians are actually five.
The demon world is divided into northwest, northeast, southwest, and southeast. Each of the lords rotates every hundred years or so.
There are 5 guardians due to the millennial war with the humans.
The demon world is ruled by force. Only the strongest survive. The weaklings are loathed and killed. That’s just how it works.
So, what would happen if one of the Four Fiendish Guardians disappeared?
There would be a war between clans to replace the missing guardian. It would be chaotic, to put it mildly.
To prevent this, the Demon Lord at the time came up with a system. An extra guardian would be on standby to replace one of the guardians were they to disappear.
Mumuruu is currently the demon on standby.
By the way, all the guardians are doing just fine for now. Mumuruu temporarily assigned the northwest commander to her area so as to rest.
The cycle goes Northeast -> Southeast -> Southwest -> Northwest -> Standby -> Northeast
– I’ve rested enough, my powers are back to full… But I don’t wanna do anything~
This “resting period” has been quite long. Likely due to the peace the demon world has been experiencing lately. More than 200 years of nothing.
Honestly, Mumuruu didn’t want to work anymore.
Not all demons in the world want to fight. Some just want to spend all day lazing around.
And Mumuruu was definitely one of them.
– Mistress, I’m back- UGH, WHAT IS THAT SMELL!?
Letty was the one who entered Mumuruu’s room. Letty works as a maid, bodyguard, and pretty much anything. She’s also Mumuruu’s childhood friend.
– Hoi, Letty~ Welcome back, did you buy anything for me?
– I did. But please, I cleaned right before leaving. Why is your room such a mess again? Are you stupid? Do you have some sort of worm eating away your small brain?
Mumuruu’s room was full of filth and garbage except for her bed. Most of it was empty bottles of liquor and food leftovers.
– Ehh~ But it’s such a pain to clean~
– *Sigh*… Just so you know, you’re one of the Four Fiendish Guardians. And you’re going back to your duty soon.
– But I’ll be gone for hundreds of years. I want to spoil you with some work before that~
– You do know that I’ll be going with you, right? That’s not an excuse. Whatever. I’ll take care of the cleaning. Please go get the weapons in shape.
– Tch.
Letty pulled her out of the bed by force. Mumuruu sighed and picked up her “partner” from the bed.
– “The Demonic Spear, Trident of Darkness”… When was the last time I used this? I’ve just been throwing it around while at home~
A cursed spear that has been passed down from generation to generation in Mumuruu’s family, equivalent to Level VII or even VIII. Her go-to weapon before she took a break.
She would’ve liked to give it some more rest, but duty calls.
– Aah~ I’m so tired~ Hey, Letty, make some tea.
– Is your stamina non-existant!? I still haven’t finished cleaning. Get to polishing that thing already.
– Eh~ Why? I’ve had it since my Great Grandad’s generation and it doesn’t matter how rough I treat it, it doesn’t break or lose quality.
This spear has existed for countless centuries. It has seen an absurd amount of wars. Yet it was still as new as the first day.
So, even Mumuruu wasn’t able to explain:
*Crack*
– …Huh?
Such a legendary weapon, yet without prior signs, the spear broke in half.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
