Chapter Prologue
Prologue: Test of Strength, Dungeon’s creation
“When a demon becomes 20, he creates a dungeon in the Demon Lord’s castle, it is a traditional custom . ”
I was muttering such words at the saloon in the basement of the demon lord’s castle . A huge quartz crystal is placed in the center of the room, dozens of men and women are standing around . Some of them have dragon scales and fangs in their bodies, and they are separated from each other .
…… Because it is a demon group, so it’s natural, right?
Everyone besides me looked severe . I look like a human being except for the small horns that grew in my head .
…… I should be the same age, though .
More than 100 people here are the devils who reached the age of 20 this year . The demons are long-lived and have a small number of children, but this year it is said that it is relatively large .
…… It seems that only one digit gathered in the Demon Lord’s castle in the past .
When the demons are 20 years old, they go to the Demon’s lord’s Castle and create a dungeon . So while living in the dungeon we made, we will learn how to use power as a demon and how to extend the dungeons at the school that was attached to the castle .
In other words, the Demon Lord’s castle is a kind of educational institution .
“Let’s start the class selection and dungeon creation test!”
The education was just about to begin .
Standing next to a giant crystal placed in the center of the room, the school’s professor began to call the incoming students of the year while looking at the roster in hand .
“Sophia Grave of the Vampire Family! At the front!”
“Oh, it’s me . ”
The first one called was a girl with thin, long ears and black wings .
Height is not that tall, but she looks like a bewitching vampire, with a lot of exposure and some sexy white skin .
“Sophia, you are …… I see you are from the prestigious Grave family, a noble vampire family, I’m expecting much from you . ”
“Thank you…So, should I touch this crystal?
“That’s right, if you touch this mother core crystal, a dungeon will be created depending on your ability and will be registered in the core . ”
“Um …While you are at the school, you live in that registered dungeon, right?”
“Yes . However, it is a life-long dwelling that can be used even after leaving school . So make sure you imagine your own castle . ”
While being told by the Professor, The Vampire touched the Crystal . At that moment, the crystal shines with a red light . And the red light reflects the map of the dungeon on the surface of the crystal .
“Oh, this is amazing . You made an A + class dungeon with ten levels this early, the Vampire is an excellent family, but you are awesome . ”
“Because I got the appropriate training at home . ”
“Hmm, then you’ll go to a special class . ”
Everyone in the room rustles at the professor’s words .
“Suddenly you are going to a special class, is it going to be amazing this year?”
“Oh, I come from a prestigious family, but I will make a Class A dungeon for the first time, so I’ll do not be shy …”

In the noise, I was looking at the map of the dungeon floating in the crystal . Dungeon creation is a kind of power test . If You are strong, you can do something wide and deep, and if weak, we get something small and narrow .
So, even among the demons, aristocrats, and royalty who have strong power, can make a dungeon of great evaluation like A or A +, ordinary devils make D and C or so on with a rating of moderate .
Depending on the abilities shown by this result, we would be divided into a special class and ordinary class, and it seems that the contents to be taught will also change .
…… But it is a place to live normally, so it should be narrow .
I think that it is enough if there is sufficient space for a four rooms floor of four tatamis per room . If it is too wide, it will be difficult to move .
While living peacefully in a dungeon the size of a single house, learn how to use power properly, in an ordinary class of the school .
And I thought that I should go back to the countryside and take over as a pharmacist in the family business
“Next . Chrono Alcon of the Devil race . ”
Second, my name was called, so I came forward .
Then, the professor looked at my face and was puzzled a little .
“Chrono is … … Uh, you’re from the devil race, it seems like the demon features are very thin…… . Half or something?”
“No, I am a normal devil”
I am a devil who was born and raised in an ordinary rural village .
“Is that so? … … Well, it was a rude question . ”

“Well, I do not care because I’m used to it, unlike other tribes, the devils do not have extreme characteristics either . ”
What is different from people is the horns that grow in the head . There is no way to be mistaken .
“Thank you for saying so . Well, I’m sorry to have taken your time . Well then, it’s a dungeon creation . While lightly imagine your own castle, try to touch this mother core”
Even if it is said that it is a castle, you can be satisfied enough if you have four and a half tatami mats room .
If it is luxury, a slightly wider one room is fine .
…Well, if I can live a leisurely life, I don’t care what I can do . I am not strong enough, but I will be able to do something decent . I am looking forward to seeing what I can do in the ordinary class .
With such a light feeling, I touched the Crystal . At that moment
“-!”
Crystal turned black at once .
“What?”
Then a black light emanates from the dull black crystal . It is a huge map that is drawn . That is filling the whole crystal . However, not only the crystal was filled with the map .
“Oh no! This black light!”
The black light spread enough to fill the entire room, and the whole map of the dungeon was displayed .
“Well, a natural disaster!? It is scary… …!”

As a result, suddenly those who were around the crystal exposed surprises .
“This is… what is going on !?”
Even the teacher who was in front of me was panicking .
I am looking at the Crystal here and there while I am sweating cold .
And after a few seconds, the professor spoke in a breath, with a pale face .
“100 levels ……? What is this vastness? Class A or class S… . . It’s not . This is a dungeon in the legendary demon lord class…… . !”
“Yes?”
I don’t understand what the professor is saying . What are you talking about?
What is he saying the Demon Lord’s Class?
“Come on, what kind of power do you have? Or rather, what did you imagine!”
“No, I mean, I am just a mediocre demon of the countryside . ”
And what I imagined was a dungeon that could be an ordinary house . I have no idea what’s going on .
“Anyway, Chrono-kun, please come here! And let’s go to the Demon Lord’s office!”
“Err … …?”
It seems that it was a little off the schedule of me calmly living comfortably in a four rooms, four and a half tatami mats house .
