I'm a little bit cute after transforming.

In a room at a manor in Oliver City, several people were sitting around a round table discussing something.

Adolf took a sip of tea and looked at the group of five young people sitting opposite him. They were dressed in luxurious clothes and carried luxurious weapons.

The handsome man with black hair who was leading the group spoke up.

"Dean Adolf, we have investigated and found out why the Demon King's army retreated!"

"Oh~"

Adolf sat up straighter and asked:

"Enoch (Hero), what have you discovered?"

The hero Enoch gathered his thoughts and slowly explained:

"Lucy infiltrated the Demon King's castle and discovered that the Demon King has been replaced!"

"what!"

Adolf was very surprised.

"What exactly happened? What were the details?"

Enoch the hero looked at Lucy, who was wearing a black bodysuit, standing to the side.

"Lucy, please tell me in detail the information you have gathered."

Lucy nodded.

"That night, I easily infiltrated the Demon King's castle and didn't encounter any patrolling guards."

"From afar, we can see that the Demon King's castle is now in ruins, and many demons are rebuilding it."

"I didn't dare to get closer to investigate, but I overheard some demons discussing how the newly born Demon King easily defeated the current Demon King!"

Adolf's expression was grave.

"This is troublesome. The new Demon King's strength is unfathomable, given that he could so easily defeat the current Demon King, Ariel!"

"Have you found out any information about the new Demon King?"

Lucy shook her head.

"I've only heard that the new Demon King is very strong and violent, and that the entire area around the Demon King's castle has been razed to the ground!"

"Oh right! The new Demon King seems to be still in her juvenile form, and her name seems to be—Diana!"

Adolf was a little taken aback.

"What? You said the new Demon King's name is?"

"Diana~"

Lucy responded.

Adolf wiped the cold sweat from his brow. 'It must be a coincidence of names, yes! It must be a coincidence of names!'

The heroes were somewhat bewildered by Adolf's strong reaction.

Just as Adolf was praying that the demon king wasn't Diana, the butler knocked on the door and came in.

"Sir! A soldier says he has something important to tell you!"

Adolf's eyes lit up, and he decided to change the subject.

"Let him in!"

The butler agreed and withdrew.

A moment later, a dusty-looking soldier entered the room.

Adolf glanced at the soldier and spoke.

"What do you want from me? Why are you in such a hurry?"

The soldier glanced at everyone in the room and couldn't help but swallow hard; the hero was here too.

"Lord Adolf, a little girl has come to the city wall. The commander asked me to ask if you have a student named Diana!"

······

The hero Enoch stood up abruptly.

"Diana!"

"Dean Adolf, what's going on?"

Adolf stroked his beard, feigning composure.

"I do have a student named Diana. There are too many people with the same name, so it must be a coincidence."

The soldiers didn't understand why they were so excited, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they heard what Lord Adolf said.

"Lord Adolf, Miss Diana wants you to go see her immediately!"

After saying this, he glanced at Adolf's expression and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Adolf did not seem angry.

After all, which apprentice would dare to order their master around like that!

Adolf couldn't help but laugh.

"This girl is still so disrespectful!"

"You lead the way, and I'll go with you."

It's been a while since I've seen her, and I really miss Diana.

"Dean Adolf, can we go take a look together?"

"How could such a coincidence happen?" asked the brave Enoch, still somewhat skeptical.

His four teammates next to him also stood up.

Adolf agreed after a brief hesitation.

The steward had already prepared the carriage; it was already dark outside.

If we travel through the night, we can reach the city wall by morning.

······

At this moment, Diana was sleeping soundly in a room at the foot of the city wall, while a general and a group of soldiers were guarding the room.

The general was still uneasy; he had to confirm Diana's identity before he dared to relax.

"Commander, you go and rest. We'll keep watch!"

One of the soldiers tried to persuade him.

"What? You think I'm so weak that I can't even keep watch at night?"

The soldier shrank back, not daring to offer any more advice. It seemed that losing to a child had been quite a blow to the regimental commander.

In the early morning, Diana woke up, pushed open the door, and went out.

The sudden noise startled the general guarding the door.

Diana was somewhat surprised as she looked at the general standing at the door with dark circles under his eyes.

"You didn't stay outside the door all night, did you?"

The general made a careless mistake.

"How could that be? I just got here and was about to call you to have breakfast."

Diana's lips twitched. This person was truly stubborn. 'Shouldn't you look in the mirror before saying that?'

Diana didn't expose him, giving him a way out.

"Oh, that's perfect, I'm a little hungry."

The general led Diana to the place where the fire was lit and the food was cooked.

It's a bit rudimentary here, and it's outdoors; it's just a simple shed.

There were piles of fire on the ground, with a large iron barrel hanging above them, where something was stewing.

Diana glanced at it and instantly lost her appetite. It was a bunch of mixed vegetables stewed together, without a single piece of meat.

"You're not going to eat this, are you?"

Diana pointed inside the iron tube and looked at the general.

The general forced an explanation.

"How could this be? There's even black bread!"

Diana felt some sympathy for them.

"You risk your lives to guard the border, and this is what you eat every day?"

Some soldiers were used to it, but when they heard Diana say that, they immediately felt indignant.

Yes, they risk their lives to guard the border, why do they eat this stuff every day?!

Seeing that the soldiers' emotions seemed to have changed, the general shouted loudly.

"It is our duty to guard the border. No matter how harsh the conditions are, can that shake your belief in protecting the country?"

Diana was somewhat displeased.

"Can't we apply for more military funding? Shouldn't such a high-risk profession have better living benefits?"

"You may not care, but should your subordinates suffer with you? As their leader, shouldn't you fight for their rightful rights?"

The general was somewhat speechless when asked the question. He glanced at the thin soldier, his eyes dimming.

He also wanted the soldiers to eat better, but unfortunately, military pay was limited, and by the time it reached him, too much had already been exploited.

The soldiers are now able to eat their fill, but that comes at the cost of his salary.

"We are willing to follow the commander!"

The soldiers responded enthusiastically.

Diana glanced at the indignant soldiers, who seemed to support their general, and sighed.

"Sigh~ I suppose you're not the one in the wrong~"

After saying that, Diana took out various kinds of raw meat from her bracelet and piled them up.

"I can't eat this kind of food. Let's use this meat to make something else."

Everyone swallowed hard as they looked at the pile of meat; they hadn't had any meat in a long time.

The general wanted to refuse.

Diana quickly interrupted.

"Make it all, I have a big appetite~"

The general's vision was somewhat blurry.

'There's so much meat! Even if you're a little kid with a big appetite, how much can you eat? This is clearly meant to be shared with the soldiers!'
