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

I can hear the pussy and the comfort.

I can see the fireplace flames burning and shaking.

Warm.

I'm hungry and very sleepy.

"Machia...... Hey Machia, hold on"

"No, Mr. Thor. Maki is really depleting her health. It was a tough fight."

The voices of Thor and Ulysses sound vague.

Very calm. I feel comfortable and in the nostalgic air.

There was a time when I finally got what I once wanted and couldn't wait to get.

It's about Earth.

I wanted peace of mind and stability in the relationship between the three of us.

There's no one missing, we can understand each other, we can help each other, that kind of relationship.

I'm not a lover, I'm not just a friend.

We shared sin, secret pain with each other in our previous lives, back then.

You call it bad friends, you call it companionship, you call it corruption.

But I trust you more than anyone.

Yes, the air I created when I was on Earth, this is...

"Are you okay, Machia... what the hell happened"

Thor is in a hurry.

Put your hand on my cheek as it rested, seemed worried.

"In the meantime, let me put you to sleep. I didn't run out of magic. There's nothing else in my life."

"But..."

Ulysses was calm.

Thor holds me and puts me to bed in a warm room.

He futon me as much as this. Oh, warm, warm.

"Tor ~... Ulysses ~..."

When I called my name to roar, they both spoke to me, like, "What is it," or "is it okay?"

Rest assured, I, uh, exhale.

I knew my body wouldn't move.

After seeing how calm I was, Tor and Ulysses seemed to sit each other down on the carpet in front of the fireplace.

Even with my eyes closed, I can hear the conversation between the two of them, and I can somehow see how it's going.

"But Ulysses... you've come this far so well. I never thought we'd meet in a place like that."

"Yeah. Perselis pushed my back like he was going to help both of us. I've been telling myself not to leave the southern continent, but my brother-in-law Esca told me that he would protect the Perselis. I have a lot of allies right now... so glad to hear it."

"Heh... Eska's totally on your side"

"I think Brother Eska has always been on your side from the start. He's a great guy... I think. Some things seem to be visible because we are objectifying in many ways"

Tor boiled water in a pan that was hooked to an iron bar on the fireplace and seemed to make cocoa.

It smells good.

"Oh, with that said, you, you had a daughter between you and Perselis, right? How are you growing up? How's Suzuma doing?

"My daughter says opera. Suzuma is doing well, and that's what Eska, as your brother-in-law's apprentice, is learning white magic. He's a talented kid.... Perselis looks happy surrounded by two of my children. Though I thought it was a child, when I was a mother, women are strong. She's been holding on a lot, and sometimes they think I'm a better kid. Although the world is unstable, the southern continent is at peace today thanks to the finished green curtain."

"... well. You're all well."

I can hear you sipping cocoa.

I began to care more about the smell of cocoa than about the conversation between the pale men.

Oh cocoa...... I want to drink cocoa but I'm tired and my body can't move.

"But I'm glad you came. Me and Machia have a lot of inconveniences."

"Say it well. You didn't let me know about Maki. Since when do you remember Maki and be with her?"

"Oh, oh... if you say so... I remember Makia on the western continent."

Thor was briefly describing where he met me and what had happened on the western continent.

"But don't you think it's a terrible story? Even Brother Eska knew about Maki's resurrection."

"... sorry. I don't think it's time."

Tor who seems sincerely sorry.

You made me apologize to Thor for stopping me...

"Absolutely. Anyway, you two were left alone, and you totally forgot about me. I get it. It's like a room for a carefree young couple.... There's only one bed."

To Ulysses' insignificant words, Thor seemed to have blown out cocoa.

"Oh, you, don't be weird. That's because Machia says it's cold, so I'm trying to be thorough in the hot tub...!

"You didn't say anything. That's okay. If you two are doing well, that's what I'm looking forward to. I've always wanted to... by the way, are you already in love with each other?

"... my fiancée"

Thor says in a squeezing voice for some reason.

Why. Why, I say it in such a regrettable voice, Thor.

I want to inquire, but my body doesn't move, and I don't have a voice.

"That's good. If only we'd just gotten married. Marriage is good. The family is great. It's a tight thought if you can have kids, and no matter what you say, my kids are cute."

"You guys got married so fast... But you can't do it right now. I want to take Machia to the Kingdom of Ruskia, and I want permission from your palace then. I'm sure Machia is not the former Machia Odileel... but I'd like to report it to your pavilion before we get married."

"You're as serious as ever, Thor. Harlem, I don't think that's the word of the Demon King."

"... don't bring out that once glorious"

No...... and a toil sipping cocoa in the way of a bunch of bad looks.

"Oh, you want something to eat? You're hungry, aren't you? Aren't you tired?"

"... I'm tired. My body is in pain."

"Oh, my God."

Tor stood up, and every day, I heard a cupboard of food that I would never let touch open.

"Let's pinch some salami in the bread"

"That's good. I'm totally hungry."

"We also have dried fruit. Pickles too."

The mess and the sound of taking something out.

I drank saliva. My nose reacts to the good smell.

Those guys... they are going to eat and drink in my sleeping gap!!

I can't stay or stand, and I'm, yeah, starting to roar, rushing the magic of automatic healing in my body to recover my strength on my own.

I get up gabbling, resenting the two of them sitting on the carpet and doing all sorts of stuffing.

"Oh, this guy's awake."

Thor's, surprising and frightening voice.

"What are you guys eating on your own when people are sleeping! Even I'm hungry."

"'Cause you looked terribly tired. Sleep or eat."

As if to tell the child, Tor stopped by and tried to lay me down again.

"I said it's okay now. I choose to eat."

"Is that true? You know, it was pretty bad fatigue to look at."

"Well, I fought awesome."

All right, I got out of bed, and I sat up on the carpet in front of the fireplace.

"I'll give you this, Maki."

Ulysses gave me his own salami sandwich, which I had not yet laid hands on.

I can't believe you're sharing your own food. The same lily as your mother.

"Wow."

Wearing it, he wore it and I was trying to fill an unfulfilled hunger.

Thor followed the warm cocoa out of the pan. The usual mug.

Eat slowly.

"I know."

While I say it, I also pick the pickle and put it in my mouth. It's a pickle of radish.

When I chew through the crust, my mouth fills with sweet and sour flavors. Flush it with cocoa. Strange combination.

But it's not enough at all. It really seems to have drained a lot of power.

"I don't know, Maki seems to be enough."

"Ugh, um..."

Ulysses subtly told Tor.

Thor probably brings all the food he had hidden in the cupboard.

He sliced the roasted meat, which he always eats a little bit at a time, from the edge with a small knife and served it on a plate.

I'm "wow wow," and I cheek the meat.

He also rewarmed the leftover minestrone.

I ate all the way and was satisfied.

"Hehe, it's no different. Hey, Maki is"

"... Ulysses"

Look at my eating, Ulysses impresses. Do, miss.

"Ulysses, you've changed something. Yeah, it hasn't changed, but maybe it's a little closer to the White Sage."

"Well, how many years do you think it's been since then?"

Ulysses looked worried and smiled.

And seriously, look at me.

"Maki, your hair is bright red, but I associate you with Maki on Earth. After all, did you come here with the flesh of Earth?

"... you know what?

"Somehow, I was just thinking about it. When I found out you were back, it was indisputable that I could make that possible, that collector... I thought nothing more than General Cannon. He manipulated our death and rebirth intentionally. When I thought about it, I wondered, then, why did you let us go through reincarnation in a completely different world called Earth?... for times like this in the end, I wonder if it was"

"... General Cannon said it was to stock the flesh."

"Stock of flesh......"

Thor seems complicated. Ulysses, too, puts his hand on his chin and thinks of something.

"Oh, by the way, they buried your flesh right after they killed you"

"Are you serious?"

Then we're not gonna die.

They were strangely shocked by the light exposure.

Well, well.

"But it was good.... No, I still have deep regrets that Maki died once. Because you didn't tell me anything. But we're the ones who didn't. I didn't even realize you were weird."

"... lily"

Ulysses pounded and revealed his former thoughts.

I feel sorry for myself. Whenever they thought of me, they chose to die on their own.

I can fully understand just how painful everyone felt when they themselves were in their shoes.

"Sorry, Ulysses"

I honestly apologized.

"... and one more thing. Why didn't you tell me right away when you came back here? That's terrible."

"Oh, I'm sorry......"

Ulysses smiled but felt quiet and fiercely angry.

I feel like I see an ice Asura statue behind him!!

"Sort of."

"Thor, you're Thor, too. You said you two had fun traveling that way? The western continent? Was it the Demon Nation? Build your own country and be king. Then why didn't you call me?"

"... sorry"

Thor can't argue with what Ulysses said either.

"Everybody didn't tell me anything. Thanks to my brother-in-law Eska for his simplicity, I could tell because he leaked information easily..."

Eska. Did Eska spoil it? That bastard.

Though I think he looks like him, pale me and Thor.

Ulysses just doesn't seem seriously angry, and at the end of the day, she laughs cuckoo.

"Do you mind? Maki just came back for me, that's enough. I know you didn't think about me or Perselis or the southern continent. I've always been lost getting out of that continent."

And he stared at me again.

It's like I miss you, but it's like enduring something painful, but after all, it's like saying I'm happy.

"Welcome back, Maki. I've always wanted to see you."

……

And Ulysses, who shed a glimmer of tears.

Thoughtful. How much my death was tormenting him.

I knew full well the suffering of those who would be left behind, but I left him with all my memories and all that was heavy, and he died.

I couldn't wait to hug Ulysses with all the food just like that.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Ulysses."

Tears flood me.

I made Ulysses cry. My chest hurts.

"... maki"

"I've always missed you, too. I've always wanted you to be happy."

"I know. Me too, yeah. If you're alive, now is the time to do everything in your power to protect your happiness. Just like you protected us..."

Ulysses gave me a hug back so that I could wrap it up gently.

His kindness is an infinite sense of security.

Not like Tor, not like anyone else, just Ulysses.

There is absolutely something in us that says Ulysses alone stands.

Would Thor have thought the same thing again?

He stared silently at me and Ulysses.

Far back in the day, two thousand years before now.

There were three demon kings, who were fighting over triplets on the northern continent.

And I'm still here.

Dead and uncut bonds have brought us back to this land.
