The Boy Who Swore Revenge On The World - Chapter 38
Demon Country Estekia
Good grief, the Holy Kingdom is a bother
It truly is
I talk to the butler of this castle before my eyes who came to pa.s.s a letter to me, Lulsch. Perhaps Lulsch also feels the same way as I do, he showed a bitter smile like me.
I wonder what part of us cant they stomach? Is it the physical appearance? Indeed, we possess horn that humans dont and our eyes are red. There are also those amongst us who not human. However, our way of thinking doesnt differ from humans. Like the Human Race, we also have emotions. We rejoice when theres something happy, we grieve when theres something sad. We also fall in love, we can also dream. If thats the case, is it the strength? We possess magic power above the Human Race, and we have physical strength as well. There are also those who possess unique abilitiesbut, thats not all there is to it. There are also those in the Human Race who can win us, the difference in our number is evident. No matter how strong we are said to be, we cant win against the difference in number
I think no answer will come up even if you think about that matter, Your Majesty. It is a matter that the previous generation, the generation before that, and the Demon Kings-sama even before that have continuously thought about. Even so, it was something that was not able to be resolved
Thats true butwe shouldnt be unable to understand each other. Currently, multiple races are living in our country. Naturally, Human Race as well.
That is probably also an eyesore from the Holy Kingdoms perspective. It is the Holy Kingdom that touts a Human Race supremacy doctrine and talks about us as Devils and so forth even at the best of times. And yet, we who are of a different race is accepting the others without questioning the races, for the Holy Kingdom, it is probably something unacceptable
Its troublesome
I sit back into the chair. It has already been 10 years since I ascended to this seat, even though Im still inexperienced, Im a King who leads a country. No matter what it takes, I have to at least avoid losing the country.
That is right, it is not something to worry about by yourself, Greis-bocchama1. I will give you advice
Dont suddenly return to being a teacher
Lulsch who speaks to me like when he taught me studies in the past. Im no match for this person.
And, the ones who have their eyes on this castlethe Hero and company, what do we do about them? If you wish to exterminate them then I will send one of the Seven Demon Generals. Otherwise myse
No, its fine to just be vigilant for the time being. They still only just entered the forest. That place, they wont be able to easily leave it even if its the Hero. Furthermore,Lightningis also amongst them. Theres no need to attack forcefully
The one who is said to be the closest to the Twelve Holy Devas2huh. He is close toPurple Lightning, the Hero from 400 years ago, or something like that according to the rumours
Aa, I dont think the Seven Demon Generals will lose to anybody who isnt the Twelve Holy Devas but, theres also no need to push ourselves and sustain an injury. If it comes down to it, Ill come forth as well
Holy Kingdoms Twelve Holy Devas. Its the 12 strongest people of the Holy Kingdom made using the 12 astrological signs as its foundation. If we were to lose to someone who isnt them, itll be harsh even for our country. However, the Holy Kingdom excels in talents in proportion to having a large number of people. That aspect is something rather harsh.
Mu?
Nn?
Lulsch and I are talking about the Hero and company and, there are presences of people running over from the corridor. Running is basically not allowed in the corridor in front of my office unless its an emergency. However, the presences are those that are running over in small steps. These presences are
Batann!
, a loud sound along with the opened door. And then, two small silhouettes entered from the door.
Otou-sama!
Oto-chama!
They were my beloved son and daughter. Lucus whos turning 7 years old this year and, Silune who turns 4 years old this year. Both of them run to the front of my desk as they shake their silver hair that is identical to mine.
And then, the one who entered the room afterwards is the knight whos being left with the two childrens babysitting and escort, Sera. A female ogre with white hair and two horns growing on her head. Her age is about slightly over 20.
These kids mother, in other words, my wife, is currently away from the castle. Perhaps because her name was originally well known as the Military Commander before she married me, it seems shes working outside, going around the streets by the castles vicinity doing security-like things.
Besides, because she comes home once every other day for the kids, I also gave my permission.
M, my apologies, Your Majesty!
What, it doesnt matter. These kids also wont enter the room without any reason
I gently pat the childrens head as I smile to Sera. Shes working with all her might for the sake of these kids. I only have my grat.i.tude, theres nothing to be angry about.
Well then, whats the matter, Lucas, Silune? Did something happen?
Ha! That is right! We came with a request for Otou-sama!
Desu!
Lucas who was feeling good from my patting returns to his senses and says that to me. And then as though learning that, Silune looks up at me as wellaa, they are making the comfortable looks again. Adorable.
A request for me? What is it?
This, desu!
The moment I asked, Silune raises her both her hands above her head and brought something out suddenly. What she brought out above her hands was an egg thats about 30 cm in diameter. Perhaps it was heavy, Silune staggers the moment she carried it in her hands but, Lucas who has expected that supports her. Its a pleasant sight but more importantly
Silune, the magic just now
Silune transported the egg over to an empty spot. This, I dont know whether it is Summon Magic that summoned the egg from a different placeor s.p.a.ce Magic that transports it from another s.p.a.ce though
I look at Sera but Sera shakes her head. It doesnt seem like shes the one who taught it.
This is what they call a genius. As expected of Your Majestys child
Lulsch, dont cry like a grandfather who is seeing his grandchild. The kids are looking at you all surprised.
I cough and look at Silune with a smile. I know what she wants to say from this egg but, Ill confirm it just in case.
What is that egg?
I picked it up in the forest! I want to raise it!
Umu, its great that shes energetic. Its great butwhat kind of egg is this? I dont feel anything sinister about it so I think its not something dangerous though.
Because Sera and Lulsch are also making a difficult look when I look at them, they probably dont know as well.
Is it fine to raise it?
Silune who looks up at me with sparkling eyes. Mumu, what should I do. I am thinking and
It is fine, is it not?
Lulsch?
Ouji-sama3and Oujo-sama4, responsibility comes along with raising a living thing. Will you be able to raise it until the end?
Lulsch, I will do my best!
Lulsc, I will also do my best!
Is that so. Well then, I shall a.s.sist you as well. I will also have Beluce help out so it will be fine, Your Majesty
If Monster Tamer Beluce is also around then its fine huh. Furthermore, Lulsch is around. There is probably no chance of a worst-case scenario.
The two of you, I wont forgive you if you give up midway, okay?
Yes!
When I give my approval, the two of them raise the egg while going around the place singing some weird song. The adorable pair, Lulsch and Sera as well as I, naturally soften our expression.
I wish this moment can continue on.
