"Grandpa, talk to me all the time."
I can't help it.
I sat down on my chair and smiled at the young Pione lying on the bed.
My story that I tell and hear every night.
The history of the fight against this demon hero, Mugen's hero.
◇
More than 200 years ago, I was with Demon King News.
News was young and wise.
He never discriminated on the basis of race, and any person was given a position as long as he had the strength.
Though thoughts were not very praised.
News was wondering if he could get in touch with humans and elves.
I looked up to him from the bottom of my heart, but I couldn't agree with the idea just because I was young.
Human beings are ugly creatures to hate.
Weak, wiser, and greedier than the Demons.
Certainly, our demon tribe is an aggressive race that likes to fight.I can't deny that.
But there is a virtue to be honest with oneself.
On the other hand, human beings always lie in some way.
There is nothing right about it.Justice is the funniest joke.If you believe in fairness, you'll be stabbed to death from behind.
We cannot leave the world to human beings.That's the general idea of the demon tribe.
There are people of various personalities in the demon tribe.I don't think it's a good idea to look at it alone with human beings. "
"But, News, they're not tired of sending heroes in.No matter how much you set up a meeting, they won't even give you a chance.Demon King is determined by evil and evil. "
"He who expresses the Demon King's Job is certainly greedy.But what people want is different.Recognition is different. Sad. "
News has a strong desire for peace.
I was never to be praised as a demon, but I liked his unusual place.
Apart from ideas.
And I was one of those found by him.
I was a weak demon.
A man who didn't know how to use his power, who was stupid, stupid and could only cling to the mighty.
He gave me knowledge, technology, and bragging as a warrior.
No Lord is more trustworthy than he is.
At this time I was full of joy as a servant.
"Your Majesty, please leave this to me!"
Stand back.
"But!"
"Piss off."
His Majesty opposes the hero holding the sword without removing his weapon.
I have never repented more than this time.
It was I who kept that brave man alive.
The brave man was still a sad boy.
I beat him, and I missed him by his appearance.
Stupid. How stupid.
Even as a young man, it is a blade to defeat the Demon King.
A poison arrow fired by a precise archer.
"Brave man, let's discuss this properly. The rest will build peace with them..."
"Die, Demon King! Evil will be destroyed!"
"Hehhhhhhhhh!"
The brave man poked an unarmed king.
The sword-drafted man slashes me, but he jumps backwards quickly and takes his friends with him to escape.
How dare you, Your Majesty.
Human. I won't forgive you.
I embraced His Majesty.
I can't stop bleeding. It sprays out from the wound even if it is pressed.
Somebody give me a healing pill.
Your Majesty will die if you do not hurry.
"... Mugen, don't hate me.I'm sure the rest of the way was wrong.There must have been a better way.Peace can always be built. "
"Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe.
"One day, you will know, live forever, and know, love."
I continued to give my tears to His Majesty, who had become cold.
◇
A hundred years passed, and I served the demon king Quor.
After the death of Master News, I became a warrior known to everyone.
It's because I've been wandering through dark space and training.
Quor is a demon king from his hometown of Asmodeu.
And it came to pass, that I loved him from the first encounter, and I liked him, so I served him.
Unlike Mr. News, Mr. Quor was ruthless.
However, he always asked the unsuccessful for a translation and gave them a chance to recover.
In addition, there was an object, and there was a king's vessel that was rational but only emotional.
News was a wonderful demon king, but I felt that Master Quor would not draw.
One day I meet a terribly powerful human being.
"Well, you're a brave man."
"Is that what you say? Are you under the Devil?"
"His name is Mugen, and he's Quor's kaiseki."
There's no shortage!
The opponent was a woman.
The most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Unconsciously, in the course of the battle, he lost his eyes several times.
The hero's name is Delica.
The humans did not get tired of sending in again.
The battle lasted several hours.
By the time I decided to win or lose, the sun had set.
Kill him.
"Let me do that."
I had decided I would never make that mistake again.
I'll kill you here.
"... what's the matter, kill me now?"
"I have a thorn in me."
"What about it?"
"News, peace is the thorn."
I was reminded of his dying words.
Maybe I can make my way to peace.
When I hear his last words, I must accomplish it.
I have decided to embrace the woman in an untold place.
◇
Months passed, and I was holding my head.
In the room, Deorica strokes her stomach happily.
I've done it.
All men go their way, but in my case it was a fatal mistake.
Within a moment, Deorica was in my favor.
I was also interested in her as a heterosexual.
No other woman was as attractive as her.
How dare you open your mouth to Quor?
I tremble just imagining.
You can't escape more than you've sworn allegiance.
I can't kill her or the child in her belly.
Stuck.
And she gave birth to a boy.
◇
Dad, look, I've been hunting rabbits.
"Big deal."
The boy grew up fast.
But there is no Delica in this house.
After giving birth to the baby, she traveled somewhere.
I was too busy raising children to see Quor.
After all, I only reported that I wanted to have a child for a while because I had one.
However, I also feel it stinks here.
It seems that Quor has begun preparations for war.
Thinking again?
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry. I think I have something to say."
I got dizzy at dinner.
I often get caught up in things here.
You know, where's Mom?
"Mom... is traveling.I told you so many times. "
"But you won't even tell me your name. Even your face."
"Face, if only I had the talent to paint."
Daddy's such a jerk.
I tickle the side of my son who says extra things.
Delica.
Where are you doing what?
My son wants to see you.
◇
I hate rainy days.
I was looking out the window.
"... is that a person?"
In the dust I saw the shadow.
It was a bloody delicacy when I got out.
"Mugen, oh, Mugen, I've missed you so much."
"Where have you been!?This blood!? "
Hold her down.
Delica was exhausted and had countless scars on her body.
Her skin, which should be warm and soft, is stiff and cold.
I had a bad feeling.
"I'm sorry, I took down Quor."
"What is it!?"
"I went back to my country to find a way other than to fight.But nobody listened, and I managed to get him to sit at the negotiating table. "
…………
"Almost there, if the Demon King wasn't ready for war."
"You've always been my word."
Mr. Quor is reasonable.Perhaps it was the people of the devil tribe who wanted war.
Demons are afraid of human beings.
It's not on the front page, but I'm afraid it will always be eradicated.
That's why I wanted to become a demon king.
"There's one thing I won."
"Is that...?"
"Interaction with the demons.My country is Greyfield, but His Majesty the King allowed me to interact with you on a promise I would not make public.Someday we'll see each other. "
"Hey, Delica!?"
Her consciousness is broken, and she's afraid from the bottom of her heart.
"How's he doing?"
"I'm too well. I'm in trouble."
"Fufu, it's you and me, because she looks like you, she can be brought up nicely here."
"Wait, don't die. I won't let you go."
"Life expectancy is different, so it's just early or late."
"Still, I won't forgive you! You're not going without seeing her!"
"I'll live forever, love you."
All of a sudden, I couldn't hear a sound.
I cry in a silent world.
This is the first time I've seen the death of someone I love.
It was painful and sad, and it felt like a hole in my chest.
I'm dying, I want to die, it's heavy and cold.
I love you, Deorica, forever.
"Mom, you were human."
I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.
"Fine, because it was the last time I saw you."
Say hello to your son at the makeshift tomb.
I'm going to put it in a decent grave eventually, but hold on here for now.
Master Quor, I think you've been defeated.
"Well, now I'm unemployed again."
"Then why don't you serve the king of this country?"
"Hmm, that's not bad either. This is my home. Your Majesty has invited me once."
"My dad has to build a statue of Quor."
I burst into the thickness of my son.
Yes, I must take the initiative to honor Quor's accomplishments so that my son will not be questioned strangely.
Fortunately, Deorica is mistaken for a man.
It must have been for my son, and she was dressed as a man when I met her again.
The beauty hasn't changed a bit.
Did I know love, News?
Have I and my wife been able to walk the path to your ideal world?
Let's go, Dad.
Hmm.
My son and I walked together.
◇
"And I won the Medal of Army, and became a hero in this land."
Pione was breathing.
Am I obsessed with the story again?
It may still be difficult for this child.
I wonder why you want to hear about it every night.
Is it often used to introduce the body to sleep?
Pione had a faint but delicate appearance of Delica.
Kiii, the door can be opened.
It is my son who peeks.
"Dad, can I get you a drink?"
Would you like some?
I got up from my chair and left the room.
