A Demon Lord’s Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

Chapter 564.1

The Erlin Confederation as a Country (1)

The Captain led us to check into a luxurious hotel that was just a few minutes’ walk from the depot.

It was very nicely decorated and furnished. It would be classified as a luxury hotel even in a previous life. Seeing it, the members of my family were quite excited.

To be frank, it might be more comfortable than the Imperial Palace in the Rogard Empire.

Because…. every single item reminded me of my previous life.

Convenience was pursued to the utmost, waste was eliminated, and consideration for the users was felt in every little detail.

It could be the shape of the handrails, the service of the waiting staff, or the amenity goods placed in the room.

No, I think the hotel I was guided to was probably one of the best in the country, but I could feel the spirit of the Erlin Confederation, which started with the invention of the airship.

–I heard that this country was founded when several autonomous cities formed a federation to oppose other countries.

Therefore, the country was not under a monarchy, but was run by a council system, and the head of the government was decided through elections.

It was a form of government that was as close as possible to democracy, but how could a country be run in such a way in this world?

I think the reason most of the nations in this world have monarchies was not because this world was behind in terms of science, but rather because there were more dangers in this world than my previous one.

For example, in an event where a powerful monster appeared, and an army was needed to be dispatched, the number of people needed to decide on what action to take would be much smaller in a monarchy.

Well, I was not an expert in politics, so of course there must be a system to compensate for such a situation, but perhaps that was the reason why this hotel somehow reminded me of a hotel in my previous life.

As a group of self-governing cities, they were originally founded with a strong emphasis on business, and the competition that happened between businesses was probably what led to the improvement of their technology.

“Riou, Sakuya, how are you doing? This is the hotel.” (Yuki)

“Awww…” (Riou)

“Ugh?” (Sakuya)

“Haha, oh, they are always so cute, these kids. By the way, it’s a beautiful and very nice hotel! The people working here also seem very friendly!” (Lyuu)

“It’s very cozy, this hotel. Every item and piece of furniture seems to have been thoughtfully designed with the guests in mind.” (Layla)

“Yes, that’s what I wanted to say!” (Lyuu)

“Really?” (Layla)

“Yes, it’s true!” (Lyuu)

“Look, you guys, it’s fine to get excited about the hotels, but it’s late at night. It’s time to sleep, you know?” (Yuki)

“Well, let’s take a bath one by one and go to bed. The bathrooms here seem to be large, so Illuna, Shii, and Enne, you three go in first. Ray, Rui, and Ro, don’t leave the room like you usually do. There are other guests here.” (Nell)

“”Yes!”” (Illuna and Shii)

“…Yes!” (Enne)

The Illuna and the other girls all replied energetically while the Wraith Girls expressed their disagreement with me with their movements, as if to say, “We know…”

No, I know they wouldn’t do anything naughty to a stranger, but I’m still a little nervous about taking my eyes off them…

[Hotel Lobby]

The next day, morning.

“Did you rest well last night?” (Captain)

“Yeah, thanks for your recommendation. It’s a nice hotel. No, seriously. Everyone in the family was all excited. I think it’s a good hotel, very clean, very friendly.” (Yuki)

I talked to the captain in the lobby of the hotel.

By the way, the other family members were already away. The captain told us a lot about the city, so they had already set out to sight see the city.

We planned to stay here for three days and two nights. So, for today, we decided to spend the day sightseeing in the capital city. I was going to join them later.

I could see some security guards following us, but it couldn’t be helped that the country could not just let my family wander off on their own.

Well, with Lefi and Nell with them, I didn’t think there was even any need for the guards, but the country probably wanted to prevent any strange interference with my family instead.
