I woke in a shock. My heart racing. Palms sweating. My eyes darted around in a frenzy. That's until I figured out where I was. Relax. No need to act all up over nothing. Let's start again. I lay on my throne once again bored. Day in and day out here I am with nothing to do. Being the Demon King's own personal general to his treasures and hidden secrets sure is a boring job. To make matters worse no one has ever stood a chance against me. Each and every fight ends the same. I completely annihilated the foe. It's like I have a constant cheat code activated making the game easy. What most people don't know is that also makes this shit boring as fuck.

One of the goblins ran in panicking "My grace the castle has been breached by a group of people. They broke through every defence we have."

I sigh lying back down yawning "That's nice." I groan I curl up into a ball and begin to close my eyes "Is that everything?"

"Your grace please this is important they could kill us all!" The goblin shouts.

I scoff rolling over trying to get into a good sleeping position "Doesn't that sound fun. Let's see how that goes"

The door to my chambers swings open as four random nobodies rushes in wielding swords and rods "It's over you Demon king general the rule of Y/N is over!"

I roll over and stare at me completely dead "cool story." I pick up a book holding it with one hand turning the pages not exactly reading it "Boring!"

One of the swordsman charges at me yelling as loudly as possible. I look over at him before rolling my eyes and shooting a beam of dark energy at him disintegrating him instantly. The others look on devastated and dazed by what just happened. I shrugged my shoulders "If you lot want to run away I won't judge you. Saves me killing you. I can't be bothered for that really"

The party drop their weapons and run as fast as they can making me deflate "And here I was wanting a fight." I stand up and pat myself down "Guess I'll go for a walk"

Timeskip

I walked around my castle's courtyard questioning what to do today "Hmm doing nothing all do. Or doing nothing all day" I stop and tap my foot on the ground "Hmm I don't know. You know what I'll do nothing and figure out then whether I should do nothing or nothing" I continued to walk down the courtyard before seeing what seemed to be a young girl wearing a weird hat holding a rod walking into my domain. I sighed rubbing my face. Another person dares challenge me. Let's get this over and done with. I walk over to her and stop a few steps away from her. I tap my foot and sigh "Well?"

The girl holds her rod up in the air and yells "EXPLOSION!"

A giant explosion struck me sending me flying through multiple walls destroying half of the castle. I fell back onto the rubble coughing. A smile crept over my face as I jumped out of the rubble "Finally a challenge! I teleported towards the courtyard "Oh fair mage! Come at thee for the devil general Y/N L/N will show no mercy! May we dance the battle of death as we rid away at each other's defences showing our raw strength and power! Only one will be left standing at the end of the battle and I am not ready to go ... what are you doing?" I stand up straight and deflate staring at this girl lying on the floor powerless. I took one long sigh as I walk over to her. I tapped her head with my foot "You Can't be serious! One mage comes alone to fall down defeated after you use one explosion magic?"

I kneel down and go through her pockets. I pull out one of those adventure card things. So her name is Megumin? Strange name. Arch Wizard shit she's not messing around. How can someone so young be an archwizard? To be fair look at me. I pick up her rod and spin it around. And here I was hoping this fight would last longer than three seconds "... ... ... please give that back ... ... ... ..."

I kneel down and lift her head up "So your still alive huh? Why would you use a spell like that if you're just going to fall down powerless after don't you have any other spells?"

Megumin shakes her head "Explosion magic is the only magic I need"

I drop her head hearing a little Oww "Stupid girl. Do you have a death wish or something? Whatever I'll make this quick"

Megumin speaks up "... please don't mister ... I would rather not die"

I smirk before turning around "Ok Megumin tell me why would you come here all by yourself to try and fight a devil king's general when many other adventurers have fallen?"

"... if I take you down mister maybe some party will finally accept me" she mutters

I sit down next to her and nod "So no one will let you in their party huh? I wonder why" I sarcastically say "I'm sure you will find someone stays strong Megumin. You know what for such determination and pure stupidity I'll let you live. Anywho I have nothing to get back to So farewell"

"Wait ... Wait! ... Wait! Join a party with me!" Megumin yells

I turn to her and raise an eyebrow "Are you out of your mind? A devil king's general join a party with you?"

"Yes, please. With you on my team, anyone would join. We would make lots of money and defeat the devil king getting my wish." Megumin states

"Oh yeah, what would you wish for if you magically managed to kill my boss?" I ask

"Big boobs," She blankly says.

We both stay dead silent before I burst into laughter "That's it! You would risk your life for a pair of racks?! I have never laughed so much in years. Wow." I look once more at Megumin's ticket "You know what fuck it I'm in."

"Really!" Megumin yells "You would join a party with me?!"

"Sure what not you seem like a nice enough girl and hell it's better than this dump I call home." I state "Hey it could be fun."

Megumin laughs before staying dead silent "Umm ... carry me I can't move."

I laugh picking her up "Nice to meet you Megumin I'm Y/N I guess I'm looking forward to working with you"
