Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)

It's Machia.

We managed to rescue the First Prince safely and bring him to the Raymond camp.

Tonight's black salon is over, and the quiet is a little scary about midnight.

"... Brother Alfredo"

"... rurubette..."

Prince Alfredo entered Princess Rubette's waiting room, Lord Raymond's refraining room, and stopped when he saw her.

Princess Loulou also rises with tears in her eyes when she confirms Prince Alfredo's appearance.

We were just watching the two of us.

"Oh, brother... well done... you're safe... eh"

"... lulu bette..."

Prince Alfredo puts his hand on his shoulder somewhere hesitant in front of Princess Rubette, his real sister but with whom he has barely had a conversation before.

"I'm sorry...... you worried me. But I finally made up my mind. First time on my own......"

He was a tired looking Prince Alfredo, but he is still a noble prince.

I look at Sir Raymond with firm, strong eyes and bow my head.

"Uncle... I apologize for the inconvenience this time"

"Your Highness Alfredo... safe and above all. Besides, I didn't do anything. I thought I owed everything to the great magicians, who are lining up there."

Sir Raymond turns his gaze toward us.

To me, Thor, and to Sir Ulysses and Barrondot.

"Oh. Exactly. Especially... Tor Sagaram... I want to thank you"

Prince Alfredo nodded once, turning to Thor and offering his hand.

"You really took care of all of us, brothers and sisters. I think it's because of you that we met in this way and under the same decision."

"... I... nothing. Because until I heard Princess Lulu's wish. But Prince, I thought it might be hard from here."

You two shake hands and never break a tight look.

It's certainly from here that the prince is in trouble. Because he betrayed all his back shields.

No one thinks that the First Prince faction, which is already without him, will remain silent.

"We must uncover the conspiracy of our mothers and retreat from the devil's hand that we are about to bring to this country. I shall turn to Raymond's uncle's full support. Then the responsibility of my formerly faction, I intend to take"

"... you don't need to do that, Prince. Because you were being manipulated."

Sir Raymond is still looking sweet on his nephew.

But Prince Alfredo shook his head.

"At this age, being manipulated by my mother is a sin. I should have decided my own path with stronger will. Ulysses... you have the power to return the throne to the throne and surround yourself with your uncle's assistant."

"... brother"

Ulysses smiled somewhere happy, but calmly.

That expression was more soft than that of my brother, though it was like my grandfather watching over my grandson.

"And Machia Odileel...... You told me a lot, Gatsun, but that inspired me well. After all, I was right to leave the castle when I first thought of it. You guys are really, really strange magicians.......... Barondot, you felt something big about these people too, and you came over here, didn't you?

"... Prince Alfredo. I wanted to help you."

"Things are going so well again. You're the same."

Prince Alfredo smiled bitterly and turned again to Princess Loulou.

Princess Lulu put her hand on her chest and finally stayed at ease.

"Lulu...... we are going to have to make a lot of complicated choices. You... the..."

"Yeah, I know. But brother...... I, Lulu, believe in your brother's choice. Whatever decision your brother makes, I want to be there to help you. I've never been on your side... and now we're going to find a new place for both of us"

"... new, where..."

"Yeah. I'm sure it's not too late. You get involved with a lot of people, you see a lot of stuff, you look for what we really need to do. For the people of this country..."

Princess Lulu held Prince Alfredo's hand and gently placed it on her forehead.

I still find that to be a very beautiful act, somewhere similar to my brother and sister's.

They had one thing that inspired them to overcome their complicated birth and position and finally move on.

It must be the hardest thing for us to say that we've lived with the rails laid down.

But if there's someone to walk with, it's okay.

I have a strange certainty that this brother and sister will be fine.

"Ahhh... I'm sleepy ~"

It's midnight already. I'd like you to pay quite a few allowances for the last few days of intense duty.

I was trying to get back to my room, stretching my back.

I'm sure it's going to be a big deal tomorrow.

I want you to sleep and rest while you're at it.

"Hey, Machia"

"... hmm?

Thor is a more serious face than usual, and somehow he even followed me to my room.

"... a little, don't you want to talk"

"Huh? You're so energetic. I say I'm so sleepy...... Oh, rather talk about not sleeping because I was asleep earlier?

"... there's that too"

"Oh, that or you, you must still be freaking out because you say you had a scary dream!! Puppy, don't be shy."

………

……

That's kind of a nori bad Tor.

He remembers Tor, who I've been crying and clinging to earlier, and he's staring at me with a serious look on his face, even though he's making a fool of himself.

Something's wrong.

Something is wrong with Thor.

"It's good until you... fall asleep. Just hang out with me a little bit."

………

"I'm not going to sleep tonight."

"... Oh, you... that dialogue, if it wasn't for me, would be the wrong place. Well, come in for now. Something doesn't seem right. You must have hit him in the head hard..."

"I'm nothing..."

Thor tried to say something and somehow put his hand between his eyebrows and roared "hmm" into the room.

It's still weird.

"I didn't think you were that scared. I wonder what kind of trauma you were remembering. I can't believe the ex-black demon king couldn't sleep alone. I can't believe I told anyone..."

"... right"

………

This is what I've been doing just now.

I changed into a light room outfit and served tea to Thor, but Thor just kind of honestly accepts, no matter how much I incite, and doesn't say weird reasoning or disgust, as usual.

"What the hell is wrong with you, Thor? You weren't that big of a guy, were you? Isn't it also a fever?

I would accidentally touch his forehead and compare it to the heat on my forehead, but I was rather hotter and his forehead was cold.

"You're really... you're low temperature"

"... makia"

Thor looks at me with some worrying gaze and hesitates to say something.

"Duh, what's wrong with you? You're telling me there's something behind my back? I was looking forward to treats, eaten or something......??

That would be furious.

I put my elbow on the table, put my face on it and yawned.

It's not true anymore, if I go to sleep.

I'm going to fall asleep without even removing makeup like this.

"Machia... I was dreaming about the days of the Black Demon King"

"... I've been watching you before"

"That goes on. Until I die."

………

Flew, drowsiness flew away.

Because I see why Thor has such a mysterious face.

I also got a serious face, sipped a sip of tea and raised a shawl that was slipping off my shoulder.

"... I see. Well, you can't sleep, can you?... Have you seen Helena?

"... oh"

"As always, was he your cutie?

………

For Thor...... Helena is special for the Black Demon King.

I know that very well myself.

Thor's response, however, was unexpected.

"It's an indisputable fact that I loved Helena in those days. But now, I don't know why I thought of her so much... I don't know. What worries me more than that is Machia... it's about you. It's about the Red Witch."

………

"You... you had my sword after I died, didn't you?

The moment Thor said that, I was thrilled.

How does he know that? Already then, the Black Demon King should have died.

That's what I know best. How can you say that anyone but me knew about the sense of despair then?

"Hey, why you... because the Black Demon King was already... desperate then..."

"I could only see a little after that. Probably... because of your blood"

"... blood?

"You drank your own blood to wake me up, didn't you? Don't do anything dangerous, not at all... No, that's good now. In short, I caught a glimpse of your memory because you poured your own blood."

"... na"

Why...??

I grew bluer.

I never thought that would happen.

But it's not funny either. If you are a space magician like Thor, it would be easy to clearly embody that memory from my blood.

"Hey, hey, hey... oh, my God... how far..."

"A little. Don't worry, I didn't even peek into your personal life."

"But......"

I turned my face bright red somehow.

I remember well how disturbed I was when the Black Demon King died.

"You... what the hell happened after that"

………

"You used my sword to fight a brave man? I didn't ask you that."

"Well, yes. I didn't say anything. I'm sorry, your sword... use it on your own."

"I'm not saying that. Just... just you... you, maybe... about the Black Demon King..."

Thor said that, and I decided that I would never want to hear anything further.

Lower the chair rampantly and stand up.

"I'm going to bed now!!

I somehow know what Thor is trying to say.

But that was in the past. What the hell is it going to be now?

What do you say will change?

I go all the way to Stasta and Bette and circle myself in an exaggerated duvet.

"... makia"

"I've already slept!! I've already slept!!

I said that deliberately, and I rounded myself up and down anyway.

There's no face coming out of the futon, just small and small.

"It will be all right now, please go home, Thor. I'm sleepy..."

………

I said that with a bad attitude, but Tor never left and seemed to have sat beside my bet.

Xyli and his weight-minute bet sinks.

"... Machia, listen to me"

"No, I don't want to!!

"No matter how much I say I hate you, I dare ask!!

Tor said that strongly, not in an unpleasantly calm tone, until just now.

I'm a little surprised and I can't say anything back.

No, Thor.

Don't say anything from there. Don't ask...... Huh!!

"Machia... did the Red Witch love the Black Demon King..."

If they notice that, if they ask me myself, I must reveal the biggest secret of the Red Witch I've ever hidden and hidden through.

Never got paid, never tried to get paid, her thoughts.

And once we've uncovered it, we won't be able to stay in the relationship until now.

For me right now, that's the biggest fear.
