I only thought of it as surface-level; got intoxicated by the wholesomeness I guess (￣∇￣").
Perhaps Mephisto was actually hurt. If I think about it, his life purpose is on his title himself: Kingmaker.
He saw the makings of a king when he met Delkira by chance and perhaps was looking forward to the journey or the process of it, becoming part of it. Unfortunately, Delkira said he didn’t need a guide, aka Mephisto wasn’t needed, perhaps feeling discarded (word usage related to the latest chapter).
I don’t remember if he had set his eyes on making Iruma king but it felt more of a selection process, an interview if one is fit for the position of King, unlike Delkira’s “you are the one”. However, Iruma not only uncovered Mephisto’s worry(?) for the audience but also reinforced his sense of purpose. In their convo, it seemed like Iruma meant tour guide haha but nevertheless, Mephisto seems chipper, which is also endearing to watch. (▰˘◡˘▰)
(It’s so wholesome that my brain just wants to savor it rather than analyze or do a deep dive on the story and characters, even if it’s obvious. I’m just glad the execution was done well - evoked my thinking and observation skills whilst still remaining wholesome ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
