A Demon Lord’s Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

"Hey, what is this..."

Sole was stunned by the sight that spread in front of him.

"Why is this happening..."

He glances around and squeals unexpectedly.

What you see in Sole's sight is - miserable.

In a burnt house, a vandalized field. A windmill that breaks and falls.

The rubble is scattered all over the place, and the rubble swarm fills a ditch drawn to the side of the road, which seems to have been originally an aqueduct, blocking the flow.

And the greens are starting to erode the whole thing as far as I can see, a little after this place has happened, and I have an extra strong impression of the devastation.

- What was there was the appearance of a doomed village (...) where not a single sign of a person could be felt.

"... this is the remnants of human magic."

Lightly touch the burn marks that are dark and carbide.

What can be felt from it is the characteristics of the magic of those who created this tragedy - those who (...).

Humans, it would also be an act by more than one person because the remnants of magic are each subtly different.

War... No, to observe from the lack of information that there was such a war in this neighborhood, perhaps a kind of slave hunt.

'I didn't know you were going to die so ugly of that beautiful village... you humans. Difficult'

In the boiling chest, anger rises against those who created this tragedy... but Sole consciously (...) detaches (...) emotions and calms the mood.

However, despite all this misery, not a single wreck has been rolled in the village.

Perhaps the dead are already buried by the survivors.

Yes, survival is there.

That fact calms the consciousness.

- Above all, Sole has something to do, before retaliation.

'... where did the young man go, whom my colleague granted protection?

Not talking to anyone, but at the same time as the sole whines alone - suddenly, a pop of light appears around the sole.

Its light is colorful, and as if the light itself is willing, it begins to circle around the sole in a pale and luminous manner.

"... Has the young been taken away by man?"

Sole determines the priorities to be given before searching for the village's survival.

"If you have to look, it won't be. He should be alive more than he still feels the wavelength of his protection... '

And Sole followed the doomed village with a firm resolve.

"Bye, King. You sure about this? If you'll allow me, I'll leave Ilil with us for a couple of days..."

"Um, if you guys are attached, it would be safe to go anywhere. Besides, if you over-protect it, your late wife will get mad at you."

Shoulder to shoulder, the king who says so.

"Oh... that's scary"

"Right?

Cook and I and the king laugh at each other.

"Good for you, En. Master Ilil, he said he could come."

"...... hmm. I'm happy to invite you to my house."

To Nell's words, Cochlear snorts en.

As usual, it's faceless, but this is your face when you're pretty happy inside.

Huff, I'm En's faceless sommelier, so at first glance you'll know what this kid's thinking behind his faceless face.

"Thank you, Mr. Zayen, for making out with our daughter"

"... a friend, naturally"

"Well... as long as I'm happy as I'm a parent, a good girl like you will be my friend to that girl who didn't have many good friends because of her position as a princess."

A king with a smiling look on his face and saying so.

... Well, as far as Ilil's usual, she only looks like an energetic, normal girl, but she's a princess of Gatimon.

Even if I take one friendship, I guess it's a lot of trouble.

And I was just thinking about her, then.

"Master Ma, Master Yusha, En! Thanks for waiting!

It's the princess and Ilil who come in fine in the reception room where we were.

He's ready to stay, and Nico looks so happy, he just comes under us with his shoulder bag.

I don't have a lot of luggage for a stay, but I guess it fits to that extent because the most tense dressing is decided to lend us what we have.

By the way, Nell's back in the dungeon with us again.

She decided to continue with the brave men in this country, but she told everyone in the dungeon about the neighborhood and decided to come home with her once.

"Oh, here you are, Ilil"

"Yes, thank you!

"Ilil, I don't mind going to stay, but don't bother. Like listening to them very carefully."

"Yes, Father!

"Um, good. - Then, Lord Yuki. My daughter, please."

"Oh, let me take care of it responsibly"

That's what I told the king, and I turned my face to the three of them.

"Well, then, gentlemen. Let's just say I'm going home. Spread the magic on the guy I just gave you."

"Yeah, okay"

"... n"

"That's this necklace!

As soon as each responded, the safe dungeon return device seemed to have been activated, wrapped in light and their appearance invisible.

"All right... then, king. You've taken care of everything. I'll see you."

"Hello, there."

I lifted my hand gently to finish my farewell greeting, and I activated the dungeon return device again.

"... no? Are you home?"

The first person to welcome us was Leffi.

He was just as messed up as usual, and he wakes up and greets us.

Now, it's about noon, so maybe the toddler girls are going to visit the meadow area, and Lew and Leila are also going that way to take in the laundry.

And, Refi first stops near Nell and En and pounds their shoulders.

"Welcome back, Nell, En. Thank you for your hard work, admirer. What did this idiot do to you? Did you do something stupid?

"It's okay, Refi. Because I was careful where I needed to be, as I was told!

"... it's okay"

"No, you guys..."

When I can't say anything and I'm just smiling bitterly, the next thing I know, Refi turns to me and smiles niggly.

"Welcome back, Yuki"

"... I'm home"

... I kind of regret that he said "welcome back" and made me feel a little at ease.

"So... your Lord also has no sexual punishment..."

With a frightened look on his face, what Leffi sees ahead is Ilil.

"Where did this girl come from? The Lord will look away."

"Hey, wait a minute, Refi. Ilil is a friend of En's, and we just came to see him because we're getting along. I know exactly what you're thinking, but that's a misunderstanding."

"Hung, what do you think?"

Yes, when we were having a conversation, Ilil, who had read the air and been quiet so far, thanked Leffi beautifully as a queen.

"I say, Ilil-Glorio-Alicia! Call me Ilil! With your generosity, we are only going to let you stay for a little while! Please, thank you!

"Well, you're not a courteous girl. Non says Lefisios. Call me Refi. There he is, Azumi's wife."

"Daughter-in-law, is it? But isn't your daughter-in-law Yusha-sama?

"Oh, because the guy is a man of good color. I don't have more than one wife. I'll leave you alone."

I don't mean to be special or better colored, but as far as I'm concerned, I just like women very normally, generally, but... I didn't seem to be able to argue much with having three daughters, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

"You have multiple daughters? Great, then, when you grow up as promised, you can also be your daughter-in-law about Ilil!

"... well. Really? When the Lord grew up, to be his daughter-in-law, this guy?

"Yes!

Very happy, Ilil nodded.

Refi bends his neck and looks at me with a smiling smile.

Very, very good smile. So much so that the young man can see it embodied in the back.

And when I'm frightened by the overwhelming pressure that Refi unleashes, Ilil starts to look around me like a jerk.

"Wow... this is Demon King Castle, is it? This is some very lifelike room!

This is the living room.

It's got a throne or something, and it's a terrific decoration overall, but it's a basic living space place.

"... it's more amazing out there. Guide."

"Please!

So Leffi opens his mouth, anticipating that En and Ilil left the room.

"- Okay, Yuki. Let me talk to you in detail."

"... so, because I told the little one, 'Make me your daughter-in-law!' You can't say no too much, can you? Oh, and, uh, it's okay. Because there's nothing that's going to change later than the" likes "of little kids."

I'm sure that when Ilil grows up and grows up, he'll totally forget about me. That's what it is.

To me in a hurry to say the words, often Leffi listens and then eventually sighs small, leaking a frightened voice.

"... I guess that's how the Lord crushes his escape route himself. Whew, Nell."

"I wonder if I agree. Honestly, you have to watch out for bad women, don't you? Perhaps when you get hurt, it's when a woman tries to impress you."

"Hey, hey, I'll be careful..."

"Um, yeah. The neighborhood still needs to be protected. 'Cause when a woman is dealing with him, this guy's pretty much always sweet."

"I know. I know. Oh-ho is resolute in saying he's a man's man, but a woman's man is a bluff. Even when I was over there, Ronia ended up showing me her wings."

"Well, that's nothing, there was no reason to say no..."

The silent court mage asked me to be so enthusiastic and I felt bad saying no...

"Hmm... I'll have to have a meeting later. Let's call the guy from Lew and do the Fifth Daughter-in-law Conference."

"Oh, actually, I had something to say to you both, too. Just for the future..."

"Okay, so what if we focus on the Lord this time"

... Let me just say one thing.

Has that meeting already been held four times….
