The Demon Lord’s Bride (BL)

Getting transmigrated inside a novel is not really a bad thing—you know the story, you have the power of the future in your hand, you know all the hidden keys. You might as well end up as the most powerful and omniscient being in that world. That is, if you don’t wake up during the epilogue. And yet I find myself in the body of a fallen priest at the end of the novel, a tragic hero who had his mana circuit broken in the last war, being shunned, drown in debt, and destined to die not long after. Fortunately, I know just the cure. Unfortunately, the cure was in the hand of one of the Demon Lords—you know, the race that my kingdom just wage war with. Would he give me the cure if I asked him politely? There’s no harm in trying, right? I’d die if I didn’t get the cure, anyway. “Sure, but you have to be my bride as the price,” the Demon Lord said. ...huh? Sir, you know I’m (technically) a priest, right?

The Lord is a demon wolf of the financial street

"About this…" I paused as I suddenly felt perplexed, and looked at the chest again.

Now, how should I ask about this? I couldn't straightly ask 'why is there an imitation of Earth's modern tools here' without revealing about my origin in the process. Would it fly if I just framed it like I was curious about this stuff?

I put my hand on the opened chest and spoke while rummaging through the content to avoid looking at his eyes—in case I sucked at pretending. "Umm…why is this hidden in the pillar? I…kind of want this, but…is it there because it shouldn't be seen?"

"Not really," I heard him reply. "But why do you want them?"

Yeah, why? What kind of reason should I give? Valmeier—or any original dweller of this world, for that matter—shouldn't know what they were. They would look at this stuff and think they were just garbage. What might be a good enough reason so he didn't end up suspecting me?
