Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (WN)

151: Temporary respite

Everyone who was on the spot was listening breathlessly to the truth that Akwinas told them.

The same goes for the fact that he had an acquaintance with Adams, the first demon king, but he is being cordial with that Adams, and everyone is losing his word and just staring at Akwinas' face to the fact that he watched with that eye until her death.

Same faceless look as usual...... no, only Lillin could see the flame of regret swinging in those red eyes. What do you regret...... I was angry that I somehow understood.

Perhaps he regrets not being able to protect the [Chanjmon] she left behind. Because I was too confident in Adams' "nuclear" power to penetrate what I promised her to keep as a result.

A hidden treasure in [Chanjmon Cave]. It did not exist for anyone living in the world, it was just the power that Nucleus embodied its will to preserve Adams and the place of remembrance with his friends.

"... Akwinas, why have you been silent?

Yveam blames him slightly.

"... I thought the more those who knew the truth, the more those who were after the Nuclear"

"Oh no!

"And"

"Huh?"

"Besides... I could care less to talk about the fact that he suffered on purpose"

For Akwinas, he still seemed to be a man of respect.

The past that that opponent suffered. I guess you didn't even think it was like telling someone else the fact that you killed your friend with your own hands, just what you heard from her.

(He's the same disciplined guy in vain)

Lillin stares uncomfortably at Akwinas as she tongues inside. And Yveam was also enlightening his thoughts and stopping words.

Lillin thinks he probably wouldn't have talked if this hadn't happened.

"So..."

That's when I learn that anger is obviously leaking out of Akwinas. Even Yveam and Marione feel his atmosphere and drink solidly.

"So be sure to put on a bullet. That's what I had to do."

Whatever its wrath, it is directed at Avoros, the previous demon king who destroyed [Shanjmon]. And to myself... Lillin knows that's the kind of guy he is.

(Looks cool and doesn't seem to change, its hot and bitter)

But anyone knows that its strength is real and that it is undisputed and feared to be the "strongest of the demons". Although there will be not only awe there, but also envy, jealousy, vision, etc.

"Thanks for talking to me, Akwinas"

Suddenly Yveam uttered words to Akwynath, a little surprised Akwynath muttered "… princess".

"But trust me a little more."

…………

"Don't hide me."

…………

"I think it's hard to say or hard to say. But any heavy thing I carry with me. I am the Demon King of all!

Just because you're the Demon King, you have no obligation to tell me everything. Naturally. There's a past I don't want to talk to anyone about. If that's the thought entrusted to your loved ones, then forget it.

And Akwinas also suffers from the fact that he is to betray that thought. But she says we can share the pain together.

So no matter what the hard things are, he wants us to talk. He says he will walk as a sign to everyone, bearing everything and as the Demon King.

(Whatever. Well, I knew, but you're a stupid honest daughter.)

Lillin stares at Yveam with her straight eyes pointed at Akwinus without a single sway. Young enough to still stand as king to be too young.

You deserve to be responsible for what you say, but you should only be responsible to the extent that you can be sure. It is synonymous with irresponsibility to know your vessel and say words that contain responsibilities that are too overflowing to deal with.

There is no way I can be Yveam today, such as carrying all the thoughts of the 'Demon Nation'. When Lillin sighed that she was still just an idiot running around thinking she was only young.

"But having said that, I would also be shallow and equal to a child from the point of view of Akwinas and Marione"

Speak up in the way Yveam squeezes out regrettably.

"So I'm not saying I'm the only one who carries it. Like I said, I want you to let me carry it with you. I won't be impotent, but I won't be forced. That's what Hiiro taught me."

(Hey, what the hell!?

Be the first to react to the word Hiiro in Yveam.

"Let me carry as much as I can. I'm sorry. I just want to carry everything if it's true, but I need someone to carry me with me right now."

A softly Akwinus hand is placed on her shoulder saying sorry.

"Akwinas......"

"Princess...... No, Your Majesty............................ you've grown."

Not yet, though.

Akwinas and Marione were hard to understand, but they did overflow with a happy grin. I guess I'm glad she didn't just throw up irresponsible words.

But Lillin is more than that...

(Ku... Hiiro guy, is that him! It's still natural! Is it natural! Or is it still milk! Is that milk!

Abominably stare at Yveam with a breast far greater than his own.

"Nofofofo, lady, I am also in demand for milk. Guhafu!

Siuba played an unpleasant sound in her ear, so I gave her a back fist for now. Thankfully received, Siuba is lying on the ground bleeding from her nose.

Kuzel stares with such a bitter smile at Siuba, but he coughed one to draw everyone's attention.

"May I, gentlemen?"

Lillin also stares at him like everyone else by suppressing his frustration.

"As for the future, we need to put in place measures to figure out what more we are going to do in the future than our predecessors the Demon Sword Sacrifice got. Fortunately, he won't be able to move for the time being, so there's still time."

"Hmm? How do you know that? If you got a weapon like that, it could strike you right away, right?

Lillin asks but Kuzel shakes his head and denies it.

"No, there's a reason I can't do that"

"Why?"

"Yeah, by now he 's--"

"How's Your Majesty's receptacle, Number 05?

Asked was a man named Hyomi, one of Avoros' men.

A person who is facing him in response to the word answers.

"I can't say anything at the moment"

It was Kiria with her hair as bright as snow and her expression of inorganic emotion.

The number 05 is the identification number of Kyria, which is multiple in existence. The number 05 is also the person who was near the side of Eveam the Demon King.

Now in front of them was the sight of a large crystal embedded in the wall, with Avoros floating naked inside that crystal.

Bukubuku and blisters appear periodically as if there is even water in the crystal. Look at Avoros, who doesn't move like he's dead. No. 05 says.

"His Majesty was ready for this to happen."

"Is that sword called Sacrifice so debilitating to His Majesty?

"It seems so. Instead of gaining the power of destruction, they demand their lives."

"Were it not possible to obtain the Nucleus of the First Demon King..."

"Most parts of His Majesty's body that came home were dying. I didn't take care of it because I was so ready for treatment, but it would have been a dangerous bet for His Majesty."

"I wish the others could have done that, but I couldn't have pulled that sword out as one."

"That sword is part of the Demon God. It only returns a response to those recognized by the Demon God. And I was admitted, Your Majesty, that's all."

No. 05 quietly sends his gaze to Avoros.

"... Is Kainabi in jail?

"Yes, I ask you to be a little cautious"

"I don't even know how he feels, but he's just gonna turn his fangs on his comrade."

The girl who said Kainabi saw the worn out Avolos and told her why she couldn't protect Avolos to a person named Ishka.

So I should have explained Ishka exactly, too, but the words I said were "none of your business".

Forgot me in that word. It was Kainabi who decided this was what happened to Avoros because of Ishka and stuck his fist in it.

Whether or not they were in trouble when they stormed me, I threw her into a castle cell to make adultery of the Kainabi who was responsible for it.

No. 05 told her the story Avoros had been hearing, but she still decided to have her head chilled for a while because it seemed unlikely that she would be able to contain the anger directed at Ishka.

Ishka didn't even seem willing to solve the misunderstanding in Ishka, and said he had a mission and left somewhere.

"He's free."

Hiyomi exhales slightly with a mixed breath of fright. And turn your face to Avoros, who still doesn't even move Pickley, just like No. 05.

"... when will Your Majesty wake up?

"I don't know that's clear either. There's just one thing His Majesty said to me."

"What?"

"... when I wake up, that's when..."

The eyes of number 05 glow suspiciously and its thin lips tremble.

"... that it was the beginning of the battle"

Hiyomi's eyes narrow.

"Well, I hope your majesty is ready to wake up."

"I'll take care of it."

"You too, Your Majesty, do your best to wake up as soon as possible."

"I intend to."

Once again, Hiyomi left the scene when he glanced at Avoros.

The Lillins were discussing "The Nucleus of the First Demon King" and so on in the conference room where the Demon Nation is meeting at the request of the Demon King Yveam, but in the middle of this, Avoros, the former Demon King, who acquired the mighty power of "Nucleus", will still be attacking us.

But in Kuzel's explanation, knowing that Avoros would not be able to operate for a while due to the side effects of using Sacrifice, everyone, especially Yveam, had stroked his chest down in a ho.

But that's not a fundamental solution, just because we were able to postpone the war. Even if we get a respite of time, we need to put in place an Avoros measure within that time.

But in doing so, Lillin vomited her words feeling somewhat disinterested.

"Now you've passed on the information. Then we'll go back to our rooms, Siuba, Xel."

Lillin stood up from the chair, trying to leave the spot behind,

"Hey, wait a minute, Lord Lillin!

Yveam's hasty voice turned Lillin around.

"What?"

"Oh, no, that, I really appreciate the info. But if I could, could you... could you help me?

…………

"I also know very well that Lord Lillin and Hiiro are guests. I am also indebted to Hiiro in particular for not being able to pay him back. But right now, we need power."

…………

"I know you're asking for something out of the question. It's like you're telling me to risk my life for my country. Lord Lillin is a 'demon tribe', but he doesn't even live in this country, and you will have what you want to do."

"... I didn't know that much. Do you want to stop?

"Sorry! I've decided I don't mind defending my country anymore! I'm weak! So you have to get someone to support you! I'm sorry, but I'm still to that extent!

Lillin stares at Yveam, who vomits in regret.

(Koitsu...... Rumor has it that only ideals get ahead and you are sweet to speak plainly about what you can't...)

Learn that there is a slight difference between what you have heard and what you have heard.

"... please! Will you help us? You're right!

"............... you think it's okay for a king to bow his head that easily?

Lilyn puts it in a chilling way and tries to see how she reacts back.

"If it's going to do the country or the people any good at all, I'll lower my head and so on! I don't mind treating my life like dust!

Lillin just as unconsciously opened her eyes to Yveam, who says a hell of a thing with her head down.

"... I say too much of anything."

"Huh?"

"No matter how light-headed you are, look at them and think about lowering them."

"Oh..."

"Besides, while someone admires you, stop treating your own life like dust. I know your self-sacrifice comes from past experiences, but it still makes sense because you're alive. If you want to do something, remember to stick to raw, little girl."

Yveam is consolidated in Lillin's sermon as if he had been poked in the void.

"Well, if you'd heard from me earlier, would you turn to your majesty and say you're a little girl? Oh, and act like you're the first! And you, no, aren't you a little girl!

"What?

To Marione's point, Lillin floats a blue muscle on her forehead.

"Here, this is Marione! Lord Lillin is a guest!

"No, Your Majesty! Even though he's one of those kids, he's too polite to neglect! Couzel Gio was the one who gave the information in the first place, not this little girl!

The pikier and even bluer muscles deepen and the angry voltage rises. He also looks confused about how Kuzel can fit in this place. Siuba is staring at Lilyn, who is cramping her cheeks as Nico for some reason.

"Marione! You must be rude to Lord Lillin! And it's natural to keep your head down to ask for this one! I also know that there's no mistake in the words she said again! It was a bit of a shock that a little girl like Lord Lillin told me she was a little girl..."

"Look, little girl! Even Your Majesty thinks you're a little girl! No, you're obviously more of a toddler than a little girl!

"You're being rude with a toddler, Marione! Yes, Lord Lillin may look like that on the outside, but he's a 'demon tribe', so even the appearance of a toddler doesn't necessarily mean that her real age is a toddler!

"But Your Majesty! No matter how long you lived, it's rare to see a toddler so far! I mean, this little girl is a toddler, that's for sure!

"Ya, shouldn't I choose words, even if I'm a young girl!

"No, Your Majesty! If you're a toddler, you should make a statement where you stand as a toddler! Because she's a young girl!

It sounds like a petite, and Lillin's hair with burning red lotus hair starts to shake like a flame.

You just didn't think this was a good idea, Siuba...

"Oh, my lady! Lord Marione is here! Yes, mistake me. Come on! There's no way a lady can be just a toddler! She's a super toddler! No, it's not an exaggeration anymore to be a Miracle Toddler!

Suddenly the right upper struck out Siuba's jaw. Keep it up he pierced his head off the ceiling............ silenced.

"Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh..."

"Oh, that Lord Lillin...?

Yveam calls his name by the way he felt frightened by Lillin's unusual atmosphere,

"Huff, huff, huff..."

Lillin headed towards Marione with Yura Yura and a definite foothold. And when I think I stopped pitting my legs, I shook my face in small pieces and looked up with a buck of momentum.

"What's with the eagle?"

Look at that face. Everyone is goofy. Because he was obviously angry with his face turning bright red with tears.

Yet Yveam utters an unexpected word, bewildered by the sight of him.

"... cute"

Yveam muttered unconsciously that she felt adorable at the way the young girl was desperately defending herself. But that inspired Lillin's anger again.

"Uh-huh."

"Li, Mr. Lillin......?

Kuzel, who until then remained silent, accidentally calls out to Lillin, who roars like a beast, but Lillin suddenly,

"Kid, I hate you guys!

He runs out to the door of the room, and if he thinks he's stopped pitted, he points his finger at Yveam and the others.

"Remember, whoa, whoa!

That's all I said, I left the conference room.
