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

I'm Machia.

Right now, on the western continent, in a small woodland.

I'm here to scout Thor and the western continent.

But we got stuck. Because Tor suddenly had a high fever and collapsed.

Without Thor's help, we can't go back to the rayline, nor can we take out our luggage.

"Well, if you use artifacts in a while, your body won't follow you. That's what happened to me too..."

I dragged Tor, searched for a place to rest, and finally put him to sleep in the rock hole I found.

"The ground, it hurts a little bit, but be patient, Thor"

Fold the robe you were wearing and make it his pillow.

I sat down on the side for a moment and stared at the toll being done.

Pay for his forehead and somehow stroke his head.

But Thor is sweating on his forehead, and he's about to suffer. His breath is rough and his face is red.

What should I do?

You won't be able to move from here for a while.

"Ugh... Thor, it looks painful. At a time like this, if Ulysses was here... I would have used white magic... I should have studied it seriously."

"... you can't handle this with healing magic..."

"Oh, Thor, you're awake."

Before I repented, Thor opened his eyes.

I think I stopped trying to wake up my body. You're still impotent.

"You can't move, Thor. I need to get some rest. You've been working too much lately. The use of artifacts was hurting my body even more."

"... because of the artifact, the risk of the Magic Fortress has been reduced."

"It's magic. I'm going to ask for consideration somewhere... you shouldn't use magic for a while"

……

Tor says "water" in a plundering voice.

I hurried, woke his head up, pillowed his knee, and made him drink the water from the water bottle.

Thor looks just a little relieved and exhales.

"Are you all right, Thor?"

"... what are you worried about? It's normal for me to fall or get hurt."

"Well, that's common because you're pitiful... but I'm worried. I don't know what I'd do if it just passed away."

"Don't say anything nasty."

I hold his head on my lap, pointlessly and gently.

Thor's body is unusual and hot.

"... hot"

Tor is blurry.

"Thor, Thor, hold on tight."

"Okay... get off me, Machia, I'm hot. Don't hug me because I'm not a bear stuffed animal."

"Ugh, ugh, if that's what Thor says, let go..."

If I hadn't grabbed it somehow, I'd really go somewhere, and I don't feel like it.

Always, that's my hobby to be selfish and get Thor in trouble, but if Thor falls, I'm really worried.

"You... you've been that way for a long time, haven't you? Usually it's normal for you to bother me, you look angry like... if you get sick or something, you're worried enough to cry..."

"Ugh... think of it as a kind of tundelle... eh"

"Don't say it yourself."

Seriously, I cried three seconds ago.

Thor seems spicier...... Ah, Thor is frightened.

"It's okay. It's going to take a night like this. I can see that my body is handling things... and it will be over soon."

"True? Thor, will you be well soon?

"Oh......"

Thor nodded powerlessly.

Keep your eyes closed.

"... why don't you just die?

"I'm not dying."

But with one of my ominous words, I open my eyes and show the same clingy temperament.

The boulder is Thor.

I thought there must have been a river on the side and I left the rock hole with a water bottle.

I wish I could find something nutritious...

"... maybe Tor didn't fall because I always sidetracked his rice, did I? That's not what you call undernourishment..."

To my mind, I got anxious as soon as I could.

Oh, it seems possible, it doesn't matter at all...

But, look, he always served me dinner.

With a stuffy anxiety, he puts water in the river to see if there are any fish, or climbs a tree and sees if there are any birds around.

It's just that we won't be able to find them anytime soon.

"Oh... I knew I had a comfortable journey thanks to Thor's convenient space. When you first came to the western continent, I fell on a reckless journey. I'm a survivor..."

Explore the woods more, whining bumps.

Thor said it would work in a day, but you wish there was something delicious.

"... ah!

There's only one apple in the tree in front of me!!

I took the artifact in the form of a long spear, with its apple on it. I didn't know you were going to use the artifact this way... it would be a disgrace if General Kanon saw you give this to me.

"Wow wow!! Apples!!

It's like a crimson ripe apple... Could it be a little longer than an apple?

But it smells good, and it looks very tasty.

……

Gu...... and my own stomach rattled.

But no. This is Thor's.

"Don't eat, don't eat, Machia"

I shook my neck and tried to get back to the rock hole where I had left Tor.

……

Pompous, Shizuku falling from the sky. When I looked up, it pounded and rained.

If you think you got out, you suddenly sneak off.

"Oh, no, it's heavy rain."

I hurried back to Thor as I kicked the wet ground.

"Ha... ha..."

My appearance on my return must have been a muddy mess and very ugly.

As soon as you enter the rock hole, squeeze your hair and flush it to one side, squeezing the edge of your skirt.

"Tor......?

Looking at Thor, he looked blue and white and lay quietly.

I was kind of worried, I tried to cover him up and put my ear on his chest.

"Dead and gone."

Thor opens his eyes slightly and clings to it at his usual rate.

"Good, I thought you were dead, I was in a hurry"

"Do you want to kill me so bad?"

"That's not true. If you're dead, I'm dead too."

"Don't say horrible things in the face"

Thor sighed small and had a small, difficult look that frowned.

After all, it's still hard.

"Thor, wait... I'll make you something delicious right now"

I was fishing for the luggage I have now.

Put the apple over my mug I had in my bag and slash my finger a little with a knife.

Apple a little blood on the skin of the apple.

"Be a rubber apple, be a rubber apple..."

Order whispered.

Then the apple instantly crashes.

Splashed skin and pulp snapped into my face, but, well, it's a mild explosion to make it my magic.

With my spoon, stir the apples wrapped down in the mug.

Smells like fresh apple juice...... looks delicious.

"No, no, this is Thor's."

I sift and shake my head and take it to Thor's.

"Look, Tor. This is a rubber apple.... It's delicious. Maybe."

"... what, where are you apples from?"

"I found only one. Maybe an unlimited amount of apple fruit."

"Well, that's appropriate..."

"But you should eat properly. You're short on vitamins, I'm sure."

……

Thor gets up slowly. I'll help you with that, then I'll make you back the wall.

I spooned the rubbed apple from the mug for a bite.

"Yes, Thor. Ahem."

……

Thor looked kind of subtle, but after seeing Chilali and me, he mouths a rubbed apple.

I get kind of happy.

"Delicious?"

"... don't stain your body"

"Have another bite, eat"

……

"I just need to be able to eat"

From then on, kind of silent work for us.

I haven't had much trouble taking care of Thor before, so this kind of thing feels strange.

Thor usually complained and honestly ate it today.

Eating, yet he glances at me, groaning, gleaming.

"Hey... you, dry your clothes properly. It must have rained on you."

"... heh heh heh heh?

"No. Even if I get better, if you catch a cold, it doesn't make sense. With your help, you could dry your own clothes... but there's a magic spark in your luggage. Use that, too."

"So, but... after you eat this"

"No. Dry it now... and I'll eat it myself."

……

"Thank you, Machia. Delicious."

After being able to say a tight word, Tor smiled a little and thanked him.

The boulder I blush too, as a mound, face down.

"Ugh, yeah...... ok"

If they say it like this, we'll have to listen.

As Tor told me, take the magic spark out of his luggage and set it on fire in a rock hole.

Magic sparks are an excellent way to light a steady fire for a while, even without firewood.

Well, the exit is there, and the cold streets are raining a lot, so there won't be any air cages.

I wonder if it's a little damp. But I caught fire.

"Thor, don't look at me"

"Huh? Oh... Yes, yes"

I made sure Tor turned the other way before taking off my clothes.

Thin inner piece, jacket, or skirt. Thick tights. Shoes...... line it up on the ground, just a little blood on it, orders.

"... dry"

Then, the garment spits out a bah and a Shizuku to refuse water, as if after spraying it on the dryer.

Well, that's a little good, but you can't help it.

Dry your body and hair on the side of the fire.

Thor had turned his back on discipline, but he kind of fluttered and fell pounding in the meantime.

"Ah, Tor!

I wore only a thin piece and stopped by his side.

The contents of the mug that was placed on the side are a tease.

"Thor, it's time for you to go to bed. I'm flustered."

"... mmm"

"You should sleep by the fire."

Tor was strained from behind and allowed to lie flat on the side of the fire.

Put a wet handkerchief on your forehead and keep watching. Looks like the fever's coming up again a little.

Swinging flames on your back.

I forgot I was hungry and stared at Tor for a while.

Rain keeps falling, and it's getting dark outside if you notice.

Only the limp air came in through the entrance to the rock hole.

"Thor... get well soon"

Though the grown-up and stylish Tor is also adorable, I still want it to go back to its usual vigorous Tor.

I complain all the time, but I want you to go back to the reluctant Tor.

And we'll travel together again.

I feel like I've been watching Thor sleep all day that day.

Sometimes I lie down, sometimes I get up.

I guess the only reason I couldn't sleep was because I was hungry.

But only then did I completely forget about it.

……

The next day, I woke up with a good smell of blushing my nose.

"Hey, get up, Machia. It's breakfast."

I get slapped in the cheek with a petite.

"Mmm."

When I woke up with blurred eyes, it was a thin blanket that slipped all the way down from my body.

"You scared me because you slept in such thin clothes."

"... Ha, Tor's up"

"I'm perfectly fine now.... I wonder if rubbed apples would have been nice."

Ni and Tor with an invincible grin. Oh, it's the usual Tor...

I round my eyes, gradually opening wide and jumping up wacky.

I held onto Thor as it was.

"It's Tor. Oh!! Thor is getting better!!

"Hey, get a hug in that outfit"

"Ugh... Ugh... I thought you'd be dead by now. If a giant soldier doesn't kill you at all, but dies of his own artifact, that's the asshole, but you also think he sounds like Tor..."

"So I'm telling you I'm not dying. Don't kill people on your own!

Unlike yesterday's weak voice, Tor today is the usual clear voice.

I flank Thor without meaning.

"I'm talking about being careful... because Tor is quiet"

……

"Great..."

After a moment of silence, Thor put his hand on my hips and pulled away a long time. A little out of sight.

"You, you're not sticking around dressed like that. Where did Mr. Machia go when he was eating more than the colour? Where did that wither go?"

"... hey, what, you're happy!

I didn't expect you to say that, it swells muchly.

I was going to be much more honest than before.

"That's not what I meant.... Ha, whoever says you at all. Please, get dressed."

"... rice before that..."

"Clothes before that!! Foreword withdrawn, you're a foodie after all."

Thor goes out of his way to bring my thick jacket and cover it.

It's as if your mother would do it to your child.

Weird Tor.

Until now, don't hesitate, if there's a gap, you've been looking at me over there.

"Wow, it's meat and vegetable soup!!

But this morning's breakfast was a soup made by Tor, filled with meat and vegetables, so I'm obsessed with a more sumptuous meal than usual.

It's just a salty soup, but I ate a dish with lots of ingredients a while back.

"Yummy yummy"

"You've been ringing my belly. Thanks to you, I woke up early in the morning. So..."

"So you made it for me. Thor's got a crush on the boulder."

"... eat as much as you like."

Thor was rarely sweet to me as I watched how I kept eating guts.

He put it in as soon as I gave him the vessel, and there was nothing to stop him from eating as many cups as he could.

I forgot I was hungry yesterday because of all my anxiety, but I knew you were hungry.

I flattened this pan full of soup.
