Demiserf

Our schedule's still undecided! So that's why our guest this time is Demon Servant. He made his debut in Madou Monogatari ARS but hasn't appeared much since then. Regardless, there were fans who requested his appearance here. (Clap, clap, clap, clap).

"One of many demonic henchmen."

Suddenly, Runelord Appears...

...(Ahem).

Runelord

Yes?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

What are you doing here?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Whatever do you mean? I'm the interviewer's assistant.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Did you get permission for that?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Did I need permission?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Obviously. I'm the interviewer. You need my permission to show up at all.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

I mean... Last time I asked you, you just said "Give me a bit to think about it" and then you never said a word to me!

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

...You seem a bit different than usual.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Ah, you noticed?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

I can't put my finger on it, but it's something about the way you're talking and your build...

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Then try touching me and see for yourself.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

...Huh?! There are things that shouldn't be here, and you're missing some things that should be there...

Runelord Icon
Runelord

As requested, I changed my sex.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

H-how?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

It's an ancient magic from long ago. It's no problem for me to pull off.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

I wonder how well it works...

The uninvited assistant, Runelord.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Hehehehe... Would you like to try it for yourself?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Well, you're basically the same inside even if your body's changed. It's kind of creepy.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

You're so selfish, you know~

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Hey, I'm the guest here. Why are you two messing around?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Oh, I completely forgot.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Come on, come on, let's start the interview already!

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Fine. I'll just deal with Runelord later.

Finally to the Guest Introduction

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Now then, our guest this time is Demiserf.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Welcome in~

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

What's with this casual introduction?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

You're basically a nobody, so you don't need to be so sulky about it.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Well I'm sorry that I'm such a nobody!

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Are you really~?

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Wh-what do you mean?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Once a nobody, always a nobody. If you were really born a man, you should've grown into a proper final boss. Ah, though I'm a woman now.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

You smartass... Are you asking to be put down?

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Hehe... Do you think that you can become a final boss if you beat me?

Demiserf ...Tch.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

The hierarchy in this business is pretty strict, isn't it? Incidentally, I created you guys, so I'm probably at the top of the list here.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Damn... Am I seriously the guest here?

A Thing For Little Boys?!

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Let's see... What kind of demon is he, anyway?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

In English it's written as "Demon Servant". As the subtitle of this article says it means that he's a demon assistant or demon helper.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

That's right. I'm part of a lower class of demons. We are summoned by mages to this world and we carry out their orders. ...Honestly, it sounds pretty pathetic when I put it into words.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

So in Madou Monogatari R, the last boss who was a vampire count summoned him, right?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Yes.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

My orders usually consist of acting like a guardian or patrolling a dungeon.

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

Even though you're a lower class demon, you seem to be about as strong as other average-level monsters.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

His kind are exceedingly cunning. You never know when they'll catch you off guard and strike.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Our philosophy is "High risk, high reward". If we can get a big reward, we'll put in just as much effort to acquire it.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Even though you look so cute, your mentality is still that of a demon's, isn't it?

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

My appearance is mostly dictated by the tastes of whoever summons me.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

So, what was Count's preference?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

I can't say for certain, but I wouldn't say that he had a thing for little boys.

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

Obviously not! If that was the case, I would've killed him on sight. I couldn't care less if he was my summoner.

Runelord Icon
Runelord

So does that mean that the one who actually has a thing for little boys is Mr. Uemizo?

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

That ain't true!!

Will He Fly Off the Shelves?!

Interviewer Icon
Interviewer

So, do you have any last comments for our readers?

Demiserf Icon
Demiserf

All you need is one magic circle to summon me. Whether its curses, spying, or rubbing your shoulders, I excel at it all! A handy demon for any household!

Runelord Icon
Runelord

Doesn't seem like he'll sell well~...
