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

32: Machia, I don't want to leave Tor behind.

"Kaya, are you leaving already?

in the underground garden “Tomb of Truth”.

Perselis says to General Cannon, "I wish I were here a little longer," without fear or hesitation.

It is interesting that General Kanon is frowning at her like he is in a little trouble because he can't handle her under the rocks either.

It's a sight that would hold a head if Ulysses were here. Interesting what happened to White Sage Side 2,000 years ago.

"It's still the same, isn't it, Kaya?"

……

Not to mention Perselis pointed his lips.

General Cannon picks his military hat and just says "bye" and leaves to run away.

"Well, it's time for me to go."

"Um, your brother's going, too?

"The witch also has a role to play. Rest a little while now.... Red Witch, don't take up too much of your precious time."

Eska left early as she pressed me.

I said, "I know."

"I'm already... sorry, Machia. Brother, always like that."

"No, it's good, already. I feel like“ esca. "

Even if Eska treats me more politely now, I'm just scared.

I dropped off General Cannon, who was no longer going to be visible from the exit, and Esca's back in his little rocking bishop's clothes.

Perselis was busy, but he made some time to talk to me.

Turn around to the back of the tree and you and I will sit at its root.

"Still, Machia, are you feeling all right now?

"Hmmm... I don't know if it's okay or impossible."

"That's not a good idea. I need to rest."

"Haha, it's okay. I kind of wanted to talk to Perselis a little bit."

"... makia"

Perselis delighted to draw an arc on his mouth. Honest and very cute, I guess Ulysses is healed by what Perselis said.

Ulysses seems fine. Because there's a Pericellis.

Pfft, I thought so.

"You're a newlywed, but you seem very busy at the Episcopal Festival."

"Well, I am. But when the Episcopal Festival is over, we'll be together all the time. I can stand a week."

"That's right, it's something you can scatter after this."

"If I'm Machia already!!

Perselis pounding my back with Shiitake. I dye my cheeks happily.

Ugh, I envy you......

"Lily was happy, too. With his wife in his previous life, he was bonded again."

"... even Machia, there must be Tor, right?

"Beh, it's nothing. We're not in that relationship..."

Why is everyone finding out......

Perselis is laughing, "That's a lie -"

"I don't care about me or Thor. It's just... I wanted to say hello again to Perselis about Ulysses... I'm sorry, I kind of smell like an aunt."

"Fine. Because Machia's been dating Ulysses a lot longer than I am. So did the Red Witch, and" where I was born before, "right? Ulysses really feels like a family about Machia."

"... Perselis"

I kind of wanted to cry, and I held my knee.

Again, it brought up thoughts that took care of my relationship with Ulysses and Tor.

I've really taken care of these three relationships. Until now, it was all I had.

But the relationship changes. This is inevitable and there is nothing we can do about it.

Though lonely, it should also be a pleasure.

"Perselis... about Ulysses, please. Stay with him the whole time. Because Ulysses is a solid person who can afford it, but doesn't rely much on it for that matter. … I'm sure you're the only one who shows true weakness"

"... yeah"

"With you, Ulysses will be fine..."

"... Machia?

I couldn't stand it, and I spilled a polo of tears.

Ulysses is fine... what Perselis is.

But what about Thor?

What happens to Thor if I'm gone?

When I thought about it, it became sexually painful.

That loneliness, I might be left alone. A long life will await you, take that man.

That scare, this red witch who knows best.

"... Machia, what's wrong? After all, are you not feeling well?

"No, I'm sorry.... No. I have a few thoughts..."

Perselis held my shoulder crying. I'm sure you don't quite understand the circumstances, but this encapsulating tenderness of hers is still something special about the green witch.

"Machia, if there's anything you're carrying, talk to me..."

That's what Perselis has been talking about, you've guessed there's something going on.

I never wanted to talk to anyone who cared about me, but I wanted to be in that hand that I could reach out to my weakness.

"... Perselis... me... eh"

I want to talk to you.

When I thought so, I heard a terrible mourning coming from the front of this great tree.

Surprised by that painful cry, me and Perselis got up and headed over there.

"... Lena"

There was Lena lying and crying in the earth.

Why is she here, before I think, I understand. In her present there was the coffin of the Black Demon King.

"Lena... you remind me"

I ran over to her and held that back.

A year ago, I found out everything in this place. Me and her overlap.

"... Machia... I, I... killed the Black Demon King... with this hand... eh"

"Lena, stay with me."

Lena looked confused by the memory she suddenly remembered.

Pathetically, shake my shoulder so much.

She was just a high school girl, and all of a sudden she remembered her memories, so I can't help it.

A year ago, I was so damaged. Especially the memory of sin, something that keeps you blaming yourself, even if you redo the raw.

"Stay with me, Lena. Your... your beloved Black Demon King, isn't it? Remember that. You and... I loved... eh"

Goodness, put your strength into the arms that hold her.

If the sin part is so painful, I'm sure Helena loved the Black Demon King, too.

Why, you killed him. That is not something to ask right now.

It's just a memory before it that I'm aware of.

It's supposed to be that memory you were loved, Lena.

"Calm down... Lena. Everything you remember is the truth about Mayday 2000 years ago."

"... 2000 years... ago?

"Yes, you were the queen of the Black Demon King who sleeps here under the name“ Helena ”. You were so, so loved. That's what I've seen on the side. That's what I'm saying."

……

Lena was just a little calm, looking up and staring at the coffin.

"... Black Demon King..."

And there is no need to hold back the tears that overflow with wrinkles.

She fell into my arms, unconscious.

"Lena......!!

I support her back and make sure her heart beats.

It just seemed to pass out. I can't even do it. Suddenly a huge amount of memories poured into me.

I guess I'll just have to accept this one by one.

"Me, I'll get people"

Perselis sees this situation and tries to find someone who makes sense, but suddenly stops.

At the entrance to the tomb of truth, there was a breathless toil. I noticed that too.

"... Tor"

Thor grabs his fist and comes here early enough.

I went too far through Perselis and looked down at Lena in my arms.

"... makia, this is..."

He had a terribly complicated look.

Here comes Lena, who was falling in front of the coffin of his former self, the Black Demon King.

That's all, I guessed this situation.

"Yeah... I remember. When I was Helena. It's terrible, it's disturbing. He said he killed the Black Demon King.... Sounds cute, confused and fallen."

I stroked her cheek with my thumb and wiped the tears that tell.

"... damn"

Thor fisted his forehead and exhaled for a long time.

I myself push the emotions in the back of my mind that were zawazawa, biting my lower lip once, and dropping my shoulders.

"Look, you're his escort, so take him somewhere he can rest."

"... no, but"

"Because maybe not. Look, it's your job."

I instructed Thor to take Lena.

Thor holds Lena, frowning.

"You... you can't just run away. When Lena wakes up, face Lena properly and talk to her. After that, you should decide for yourselves. You don't resent me, do you? About her."

"Now I have nothing to resent."

"Then you'll be fine. Hold on tight."

I put my hand on his shoulder, with a pom pom.

I encouraged him with the same attitude as usual.

"Will I be ready, then?"

"... ready? Of what?

"That, didn't I tell you? I, Princess Vine, will take care of the seventh Valkyrian ship in the sky for a little while."

"... what? That's the first time you've heard that."

That should be it, too. That's what General Cannon told me earlier.

I went on without a big deal.

"Something to cure my illness. I have the latest equipment. Something to fix the magic disturbance. Then they say they'll treat you to something delicious, so that's it."

"... that's kind of frigid. 'Cause there are brave men out there."

"Oh, my God, you're suspicious. He won't be able to get his hands on me until I make a big deal out of it. It's safer than Esca so far."

"How long are you staying?"

"... well, maybe during the ecclesiastical festival. I'm picking you up tonight."

How flat, in a stubborn way.

I am stunned by my own acting.

Thor nodded, "Okay," after thinking a little about his eyes.

"But I'll send it. Don't go on your own."

"You are... overprotective again."

"We still have something to talk about. As soon as possible."

……

Thor stares at me and says so clearly.

With a very powerful gaze, I turned away unexpectedly.

"... okay. I'll be waiting in my room...... come on, come back. Otherwise, I'm gonna leave you."

Hands on chest, dyeing cheeks.

Come on, come back.

Unintentionally, that word came out.

It was also my weakness, my genuine desire to still be with Thor, to be by my side.
