Maouyome

Continue straight south on the street leading from Demon King Castle.

Having left the castle before evening, we had scissored the boarding house on the way, spent the whole day, and before sundown we had reached the lodging town in front of our destination.

I'm going to pick up the inn here overnight and leave again first thing tomorrow morning.

Yes, Inn Town.

No matter what they say about the kingdom of demons, if you step outside, there were proper streets and towns, and there were people living there, and there were inns for people coming and going.

If they say what the demonic kingdom where the demons live, it makes me ashamed of myself for having the image of a demonic nest being gobbly and rolling without a basis.

It's only natural if you think about it, because food culture and lifestyle are not so different, so it's no wonder that their lives are pretty much the same.

I reflect that I have spent so much time surrounded by demonic people that I still had boring prejudices and assumptions somewhere in my mind, understanding that there was nothing different than appearance.

I'm sorry.

All right. Reflections are over.

The Inn we stay in is a common type of regular Inn where the first floor part is a dining room and the rooms on the second floor and third floor part are rented on a nightly basis, and the place was exactly the same as the human world.

Of course, I took two rooms.

Because this is still my pre-dowry biological daughter.

"I've come a long way, but you couldn't catch Farrat's guys on the back. If I could have chased him somewhere along the way, it would have been quick."

Gather in one room to talk after tomorrow.

Everyone peeked into the map that Mr. Carlisle had expanded.

"I can't help but think of survival from the beginning. It's only a matter of luck. That. Tomorrow we're going to get into their base as planned, so if you say so, it's on schedule."

"Dear Sir. This time the aim is not the extermination of Farrat, but the rescue of Master Beradne. Be careful not to lose sight of your purpose."

"I know. You don't have to make that mistake every time. Trust me, you."

"Of course I trust you deeply. But I also know how pigsty you are when the battle begins, so let me push as much as I can."

"... you are. You've come to say even more lately."

"I couldn't catch your back, but with the additional contact, it seems certain that you're definitely getting away with this one. Will the distance difference be weakened by half a day in time? They're desperate too."

Hmm.

"It seems that it is in something like a natural cave that is the base. I don't know the exact location, but it's in this forest... here or around here."

"Here, right? I can't say much because it's not a cut open forest, but I'm grateful it's not too deep."

"No, they're taking Master Beradne by carriage, so it's not weird if there's a lot of roads."

"I don't necessarily have to get rid of that carriage somewhere. Let's not think too conveniently."

Hmm. Hmm.

"Right. Sorry, I'll get more details about the woods when I hear from you."

"Any additional information from the guys we captured at the castle?

"I received a summary earlier, but there was nothing particularly novel about it. Please take a look at Carlisle and you."

Hmm.

As he nodded with his face, everyone accidentally pressed silently and gathered their gaze here.

"... Dear Lefia, what's wrong?

"Hmm?"

"It's creepy when you do that and just keep quiet. If you want to tell me something, why don't you?

"Dear Sir. No matter how much you say outside the castle, it's too much."

That you are as badly mouthed as ever.

What I'm trying to say.... is that what you want to say?

"For sneaking out of the castle, I thought I'd hear from a lot of places."

What are you talking about?

"To? That? Dear Lefia...... No way"

"... Dear Lefia"

That? What is this?

There's something about this air that only I don't seem to understand.

"Dear Lefia. Lephia is the only one who snuck out of the castle, and we won't do that..."

"Yes?"

"We are working properly on instructions from Lord Sel Azam. You too, and there's no reason to throw your job out and get out, but this idiot."

"Dear Sir...... Dear Lephia, we are an advance party to Lord Beradne's rescue unit. When a properly organized unit continues after us, I explained it properly on the road…, you listened."

……

... YABE.

I wasn't listening.

"Is that it?... that I'm the only one who snuck out of the castle, and that's totally obvious too?

"When you're scolded, just Master Lefia, please"

Mr. Carlisle blurs softly.

Gosh, you traitor!

At that time, I definitely decided to get Mr. Carlisle involved in something. I just made up my mind.

Just give me back my thanks for yesterday.

"... you look bad."

"It's rude to point to the lady's face and say it's bad. Mr. Carlisle is just looking bad. Fuhohohohoho."

"Don't laugh creepy, creepy"

"Oh dear."

"Well, if that's the case, isn't there anything in particular I should say or do now?

"What we need to do now is get some early rest in preparation for tomorrow, right? If you don't mind, Master Lephia can go downstairs and rest first."

Agoo.

Mr. Carlisle's casual out-of-power notice pierces him. You're absolutely right.

I shouldn't be here if I were you, it's like I'm forcing myself out, and I didn't think about anything else at all... No, sir.

Useless. Me. I'm sorry.

"I will. You're going down there first."

Leave the room behind so we don't get in the way of everyone's discussion.

Of course I didn't come here with a sense of play.

But I reflect that I've gone too far without thinking about the later.

I'm kind of just reflecting today.

All right!

Eat something delicious and change your mood!

I can't help but get this far.

Anyway, I had to stay in the castle and I was worried sick. I need to be positive just the minute I go into action.

Go down to the dining room on the ground floor and take a seat.

I'm in trouble because I feel depressed when I'm hungry.

View the menus stretched against the walls in turn.

Baked meat, boiled meat, fried meat, … raw meat.

Many meat dishes if done.

... I don't know what kind of meat it is.

"Ma'am, is it possible that you are alone?

He was called out by a pretense where his head was troubled by an incredible menu.

Lady, is that me? It's me, isn't it?

I feel like it's been a long time since I've been called.

"I'm alone now, but I think you'll be coming down soon, too, won't you?

"No, you don't have to be so vigilant. There's something I'd like you to tell me if you can."

The uncle, who looked like a pedestrian, sat subtly in the seat directly across from me, slightly lurking his voice.

The merchant over here also has a turban wrapped around his head. Doing so doesn't look like anything different from a human being.

If I took the turban, would I still have horns?

"Embarrassing story, I've been hiding in the human world because I was afraid of the Demon King. You look like this, don't you? It's just convenient for you to be hiding over there. But I still can't forget my hometown... Oh, let me buy you a drink. Hey, can I get a glass of fruit liquor over here?"

Even though I didn't reply, whether it was good or bad, when I got to my seat, my uncle started to get over me early in the arrow.

It's called Lean Shade, it's called this uncle, I just don't know, and I realize that there are quite a few demons hiding in the human world.

Well, your uncle's right, if you look like this, you don't know you're a demon at first sight.

"So I'm glad I snuck back, but I'm just trying to figure out what's going on here right now."

"Is that what you want me to tell you? But I'm sorry. I don't know that much either, so it might be quicker to ask someone else if I can."

"Well, I'm sorry about that.... hey, I heard that Sunra, the tyrannical demon king, is already dead, is that true?

...... that. This uncle, is that the level?

If this is the case, I might certainly know more about it.

"Uh, it's about the previous demon king, isn't it, Sunra? Sure, he was already dead 13 years ago. Haz. Uncle, you've been ignorant."

"13 years ago!?

"When you're over there, you can't tell me anything about the Land of Demons at all, as strange as it sounds. Maybe it's not weird not to know."

"Oh, did I? Thirteen years ago, was the Demon King of Atrocities already dead... Well, what do you say...... Yeah. My uncle's surprised too."

Yeah. My face is bright blue.

Looks like you were pretty shocked.

If the previous demon king was scared and he was running away, why not?

"Then they've been fighting all over the place for 10 years, and about three years ago, the current Demon King stood up and put the country together, and now he's rebuilding a rough country."

"The Demon King now...... Do you have a new demon king?"

"Yeah. I said Master Lee the Demon King,... he's pretty perverted there, but bad... he's not a person..., is he?

"Are you calling me Lee? The Demon King now."

Yeah. Master Lee the Demon.

He said so himself.

"So it was Lee, the demon king, who took the human daughter?

"Is that it? I know that. Yeah, but it's not like I'm gonna do something terrible or anything, it's like I just wanted you to be my daughter-in-law and I kidnapped you."

"Sounds familiar, but does your daughter know Lee, the demon king?

"Hmm. I don't know enough to say I do."

"I wonder if your daughter, who was abducted, will still be at Demon King's Castle?"

"Uh. Hmm. Hmm. Now......, not here, I guess."

I'm right in front of you now.

Exactly, you can't say that...

"Are you not there? Well, the lady seems to know a lot about it. I wonder if he was at Demon King's Castle."

"Oh, yeah. I came after Farrat and the others from Demon King's Castle."

"Get Farrat?

"Yes, uncle. If you'd come this way from the human world, wouldn't you have seen the furrats with their young daughters on their way here?

"Young daughter......, no, I didn't see it, but what kind of daughter are you? I want to hear it because I'll stop and put it down."

"Mm-hmm. She's about 17 years old. She's a pretty girl, and I think she's a little rough. I can't really say this out loud, but the Farrats attacked the Castle of the Demon King and took her away. We're after it now."

"Raid the Demon King's Castle... That's what you did again.... Could that child be the son of that demon king's bride?

"Bride......, did you hear he was a candidate"

Though I call myself the head.

"... right. Thanks for everything you've told me. This is just a thank you. Eat whatever you want."

"Thank you. My uncle may have a lot of trouble coming up, but good luck with that."

Placing some coins on the table, my uncle took a seat. Apparently, I just really wanted to know a lot about it, not drunk numbs or something.

... I hope it helped something.

I think everyone and he all live hard.

That is so much so that there are no humans or demons.

Okay, look at the menu again.

It was then that I realized a certain failure.

I can't believe the gravity of the mistakes I've made.

Right......

Why did you forget...

You'll regret it later, so say sorry.

"... I should have asked my uncle what kind of meat, the meat on the menu here"
