Chapter 5: coronation 

The following day, the entire Demon Kingdom buzzed with preparations for the Demon King's coronation. The palace was adorned with red demon roses and elegant red carpets. The ceiling sparkled with red and white crystals, and the throne room was adorned in a manner befitting a king.

The maids attended to Itachi as usual, but this time was different. He was dressed in regal attire, donning a king's robe with a flowing red cape and a sword secured at his waist. His black high boots were adorned with red laces, and he wore black gloves with diamond buttons, completing the royal ensemble.

Yuki walked into the room and began to explain Itachi's schedule for the day.

"First, you'll be escorted to the Coronation Room, also known as the Throne Room," she began. "There, you'll be crowned as the Demon King by the Dark Priestess. Afterward, you'll be escorted to meet and greet all the Demon Generals and nobles. Then, you'll be taken on a tour around the Demon Capital to wave at all the people who live here."

She continued, "The next day, you'll be traveling to Duke Dragan's palace for demon king business purposes."

"Can't I just send a clone?" Itachi proposed to Yuki.

Yuki looked surprised and replied, "You can clone yourself?"

"Yes, I can," Itachi replied.

Yuki cleared her throat and firmly stated, "Nevertheless, you need to go in person, my lord."

Itachi let out a groan of reluctance as Yuki clapped her hands, summoning a group of knights. "It's time to go, my lord," Yuki informed him.

A few minutes later, Itachi arrived at the Coronation Room, accompanied by his escorts. Yuki instructed one of the knights to announce their arrival.

The Throne Room buzzed with nobles engaged in conversation. The knight cleared his throat and announced with a booming voice, "I welcome to you the great and powerful Demon King, the 879th Demon King, Itachi. Joining him will be Lady Yuki Dé Lauren."

The grand doors protecting the Demon King's Throne Room slowly swung open, revealing Itachi. He stepped onto the red carpet that had been laid out for him, signaling Yuki to join him. Yuki hurried to his side, and together they walked side by side until they reached the Dark Priestess.

Yuki stepped aside, allowing Itachi to approach the Dark Priestess. She lifted the Demon Crown and chanted in an unknown language, then gently placed the crown on Itachi's head.

"Long live the Demon King!" the Priestess shouted, and the entire room erupted into a chorus of cheers, with everyone chanting, "Long live the Demon King! Long live the Demon King!"

After a few minutes of the enthusiastic celebration, Itachi took his seat on the Throne. As he settled into the regal chair, he couldn't help but think, "Who knew that being a Demon King would be this tiring?"

A young lady approached Itachi and bowed respectfully.

"You may lift your head," Itachi said.

The lady introduced herself, saying, "My name is Rosemarie. It's a pleasure to meet you, Demon King."

"likewise," Itachi replied to Rosemarie's greeting.

Suddenly, a man interrupted their conversation. "There you are, Rosemarie. I've been looking everywhere for you." The man then caught sight of Itachi and immediately bowed, apologizing, "Sorry, my lord, I didn't know that you two were talking. I am Elvis."

Itachi, feeling a bit weary, stood up and let out a yawn.

"Miss Rosemarie, join me for a dance."

The nobles quickly cleared the floor to make way for Itachi and Rosemarie. Itachi took her hand, and the two began to dance gracefully. Their dance continued until the song came to an end, and they stopped, receiving applause from the crowd.

Yuki then walked over to Itachi and Rosemarie,

"It's been a while since I saw you, Rosemarie," Yuki remarked.

"I was just greeting the Demon King, Lady Yuki," Rosemarie replied.

"Let's go, my lord." The two of them left the throne room and headed outside to the Demon King's garden.

As they strolled, Itachi asked Yuki, "Are you alright?"

"I'm alright, my lord," Yuki replied.

"It's the first time I'm seeing this place," Itachi commented.

Yuki giggled and smiled warmly, saying, "Well, you can come here anytime. It's yours. I had it renovated just for you."

"When did you find the time to do this renovation?" Itachi asked happily.

Yuki replied with a smile, "The same way I find time to take you to the garden."

However, her expression quickly changed as she checked her bracelet. "Oh, crap," she exclaimed. "I forgot that you have to meet and greet the nobles. Let's go."

Itachi and Yuki hurried to the conference room, where all the great nobles and generals were waiting. Yuki apologized to the guard and instructed, "Now, announce that Lord Itachi has arrived."

The knights announced Itachi's arrival to the assembled nobles, and he and Yuki entered the room. Itachi took his seat, and Yuki stood at his side.

 "Sorry for my late arrival. I was busy."

 The Duke of the South, replied, "It's okay, my lord."

After the nobles had introduced themselves, they departed.

Itachi asked Yuki, "Are we done?"

Yuki shook her head and said, "No, you have one last thing to do."

Itachi let out a sigh.
