Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)
fin 1: Machia, go home with Thor.
In the life of Machia Odileel, it can certainly be called home.
But now I'm just Machia.
I don't have Odileel's name.
The smell of a wheat field flows through an open carriage window.
The aroma of that wheat hoe, which I would say harvest in a few moments, whispered "Welcome Back" every time I tickled my nose.
Our carriage was already on the trail in Delierfield.
"... and a little bit more, Machia"
"Tor"
Tor, who was sitting next to him, also peeks out the window.
Looking at the view of the idyllic wheat fields, that giant soldier war that struck the king's capital, Miladrid, seems like a lie.
Peace is everywhere here.
"Ah, Odileel's Mansion"
I began to see the biggest hall here, far beyond the wheat fields.
When I see it, I get nostalgia all at once.
When I was young, I laughed softly, remembering the days when I felt bored and bored wanting to get out of here.
It's an irreplaceable, distant day, though I'll never be back in those days.
At the same time, anxiety is rising.
"Father and mother... do you understand me?"
"... why are you so worried?"
"'Cause already, how many years ago? I've changed my appearance..."
"... do you?
"Well, I don't know what to say."
……
My anxiety seems to be well conveyed to Thor.
Only he is calm and kelloggy to say he is not worried.
"It's not that hard.... I can tell you right now"
"... I'm home?
"That's right. You're just going home."
"... I wonder if so"
A long time ago, wearing a red nobleman's dress, I took a seat.
I wonder why Tor is so calm.
I can't help but be nervous.
In doing so, we finally arrived at the Odileel family.
……
Stand in front of the Mansion Gate.
Thor pulled my hand and opened the gate and walked in.
There was a gatekeeper, but he's a gatekeeper I don't know.
Thor showed me his royal palace certificate, surprisingly looking at this one, but he let it pass lightly.
"There was no gatekeeper until now."
"... the Odileels are now sheltering His Royal Highness Alfredo and Princess Rubette."
"I miss you... name."
The story of the prince and princess explores the kingship of Ruskia, a long time ago.
I mean, you two are here now.
I told him to wait in front of the door of the house, and the gatekeeper went to get the Miyagi.
The gatekeeper seems to think of us as just guests.
"... of the two young people... it seems to be the royal palace..."
I heard that voice coming through the door.
Shortly afterwards, the door opened and an old man from an elegant stand came out.
……
"... Long time no see, Master Miyagi"
"... Tor...?
The old man noticed Tor and was very surprised.
I couldn't get out from behind Tor, but it was there that I peeked and watched the old man.
My hair is already bright white and I have a lean body.
Could your father have been so old...
Would it have been three years since we stopped seeing each other?
When I think of the long months I've never seen him, I can also convince you that your father is old.
But I guess there are more different reasons why he got so fucked up.
Because I'm... I'm dead...
"Thor, you've been splendid. I've heard stories that the Wang capital has had a lot of trouble.... good, you made it back safely...!
"... Dear Hall"
"Good, really..."
Take Thor's hand and hold it tight.
There, I could feel your father's love for Thor.
"Dear Hall. I'm here to report today."
"... report?
"Yeah. I... I'm getting married"
……
Your father looked a little lonely, hazy, but I see.
"Right.... You made a good man, Thor."
"Yes."
"... well... good"
A father who smiled, saying it was good, but dropped his gaze just a little bit.
What kind of mood is it?
Tor had told me before such a father, "Here," and encouraged him to come out.
But I couldn't get out of Thor's back.
I can't push my face against his back and get away from it.
"Here, here... you, what are you so shy of"
"... haha. A good Tor seems very shy. Must be a boxed lady."
"... Hey, no, it's not that quiet"
I felt Tor ridiculed me and I looked up unexpectedly.
"Hey, what does that mean!
……
"... ah"
After the silence as if the air had stopped, I saw your father.
Your father stares at me with his eyes open.
I don't even blink.
"Oh, oh, um... um... me"
……
"I.................. oops..."
I couldn't get a proper word out as I dropped or raised my gaze.
There are so many girls with red hair.
I was born and raised as Machia Odileel, not as I am.
May I call this man your father...
"Machia...?
……
"That's Machia. Machia... I wonder why Machia..."
At the same time as the confusion, your father couldn't stand the overflowing tears, shook his head several times and kept his mouth shut.
As soon as I saw your father's tears, I couldn't bear them, either.
"Oh, Father...... Me"
"Machia...... Machia, why"
"Me, me..."
My legs were dull and I couldn't move.
I've never seen my father cry so hard before.
I just have a hand that pushes a ton of my back and I'll be in the shape of jumping on your father as it is.
Your father was surprised, but I couldn't help but hug him to that nostalgic scent.
"Father... Father, I'm home..."
"... makia"
"That's right.... I'm back."
……
"I... am Machia... father... eh"
There wasn't enough room in my mind to talk about it here.
I just want you to believe that I'm Machia, and I just sued your father.
Your father couldn't say anything for a while, he just opened his eyes and kept crying, but eventually he hugged me and collapsed on the spot.
"Machia...... Eh, it's Machia. I can see that... you are Machia. She's my sweet little girl......"
"... father"
"Machia...... Huh!
He called me by name over and over again, and I thought I'd finally come back to where I was supposed to go.
"I'm home. I'm home, Dad"
I'm home...
I thought a little more, a little more. It's almost time for me to say this word.
Sometimes I say I've been working hard to get back here.
My chest hurts because I'm happy.
I can also call your father your father.
Thor watched over us, tenderly.
The gatekeeper was naturally confused, wondering what had happened.
Hearing the noise, the maids of the mansion and the servants came out.
And your mother.
Mother also seemed to see this sight and immediately decided that I was Machia.
He rushed over and shouted at me.
Both Prince Alfredo and Princess Rubette were surprised to say that we were here, and wept again.
Everyone rejoiced in our return.
Rebirth to Mayday, the first place I got off.
That was the Odileel family in Delierfield.
There was so much kindness in this place that brought us up.
The warmth of the flesh parents who love me for free is special, giving me, unlimited relief.
Second, I remembered what your father once said.
'Even if everything doesn't work out anymore, you're desperate for everything, and you think of everything as an enemy, you must never forget to say that the place for you to rest is indeed in Delia Field'
Words are power.
The word was, indeed, my stronghold.
After a long journey, I finally came back.
For me, a place of peace.
Nostalgia, to our hometown (Delierfield).
Again, I became Machia Odileel.
At about the same time, Tor became Tor Odileel.
Me and Thor filed marriage papers with the bureau and got married.
And Thor was adopted by the Odileel family's son-in-law.
I have a few questions about Rayline, and I asked her if she was okay with it, but she replied that she was perfectly okay or something.
Still, Tor Odileel sounds weird, doesn't it?
Your father and mother were very, very happy with our marriage.
Prince Alfredo and Princess Louvette, who live in this mansion, also gave me words of celebration.
Every night, every night, we had a Delierfield-style feast and a family meal.
I've told you a lot about what I've been through.
About the past life, about this world. Various...
Had I been in such a hurry, I would have come back to Delierfield and it had been about a week.
"Huh..."
I woke up very early but I feel very comfortable waking up.
Because this is my home in Delia Field, where I was in love.
He stood up swollen and stared blurry at the lemon tree on his mother's knitted bed cover.
I tremble all the time in the coolness of autumn, twitching that I might just fall asleep again, and then I hack.
There's no Tor next door I should have slept with.
"Oh, that... Tor ~?
Even if you peek into the bed, you're not there.
I got kind of anxious and I slept with my messy hair and curled myself up and hurried out of the room.
It is early in the morning.
That's before dawn, like the maids aren't up yet.
"Tor...... Tor ~"
I ran down the hallway of your mansion and searched for him.
On the descending stairs, find Thor's back.
"Thor!"
I follow him, I go down.
"Tor. Tor."
But Thor's footsteps are fast and hard to keep up.
Where the hell is Tor going?
Once, he looked back at me and moved his mouth, "Come quick".
Thor put his hand on the door knob at the mansion's exit and walked out of there.
What the hell are you going to do?
I followed him, out of the mansion.
"Thor, Thor...... where the hell are you going?
……
He waited outside, looking to the east, where the morning sun was about to rise.
I have a big basket in my hand.
"Thought we'd go for a morning picnic too... you wanna go too?
"A morning picnic?
"Oh.... you woke up because the air was so bright. When I went to the kitchen, I had something nice."
Ni and Tor laughed childish.
I didn't know what it was, but Thor put his jacket on my shoulder saying, "Here," so I put it on.
It's a warm thick cardigan.
Thor has reached out, so I took that hand of his.
"Your hands are small..."
"... what. Are you making fun of me?
"No. How could I have ever used such amazing magic with such a small hand?"
"... although I can't use magic anymore"
……
I walked through a quiet morning Delia Field in conversation with Pompous.
The surroundings are still a little dark.
of the gap in the wheat fields, walking down a small road, we eventually went out on a trail to a loose hill.
When you were little, on this hill, you played with your friends.
There was a large tree on the hill, and there was also a small tree on its side, so being a lady, we had a picnic at the root of a large tree and Tor was watching us at the root of a small tree.
Back then, you were really peaceful...
In various memorable places, he came to the top of the hill in a way where his legs were tending to stop but were pulled by Tor.
"The view from here is still the same."
"... oh, really"
From that hill overlooking Delia Field, you can worship just the east sky and a wheat field stretching out on one side.
And the Odileel family mansion.
Under the gentle dawn sky, Delia Field was surrounded by a sober tranquility.
"With that said, you also saw the dawn sky on the layline...... I wonder why dawn makes me feel so, so disconnected."
"... but it won't be around dusk. I won't hang up, but I have a sense of anticipation that the day is about to start."
Coming up...
I do think that is a word with anticipation for the future.
Dawn is exactly the time to celebrate the day.
In the gentle light purple and orange mixed skies you can still see the thin white moon.
"Machia, I have something good for you."
Thor sat up at the root of a large tree, fishing for the basket he was bringing.
"Also, maybe food? Breakfast??
"Bye. It was lemon cake -"
"Les..."
Lemon cake.
When I hear the name, my body trembles.
Even though I came back to Delia Field and had a scattered feast, only lemon cake didn't come out all the time.
Why? Because Barnabas, the pastry chef, finally came back last night to work at a hotel in another city for training.
To what Thor said, Barnabas, who came home last night, was making lemon cakes for me all night.
On a plate removed from the basket is a beautiful lemon cake figure, decorated in white and smooth lemon cream.
I don't know how many times I've dreamed of it, that cake is in front of me now...
"Les, lemon cake, lemon cake!!
"Seriously. You're like a cat with a matter-off..."
"Lemon cake!!
Since I only say "lemon cake" anymore, Tor slowly takes out the fork and gives me a go sign saying "eat in the hall".
When I took the fork from Tor, I stuck with the lemon cake as it was.
Take a bite and harden.
But I restarted it again, and now I kept eating without stopping.
Thor sees me smiling and uncommon eating lemon cake selflessly.
"Delicious?
"Yes! I'm sure you can only make this sweet, sour and smooth cream in Barnabas, wherever you look in Mayday. Fluffy sponges are even more powerful! This lemon cake is the best in the world!!
"... Ha, ha, ha"
"Do you want a toil, too?
"Hmm? Hem splitting is unusual for you............ Grr"
I wanted to sympathize this flavor with Tor and stuck a big bite in Tor's mouth.
Thor moves his mouth all the way, only with an enlightened look, "This is it, this flavor".
Nothing I miss more than a hometown treat.
I opened my big mouth again and cheeked the lemon cake.
"Oh, happiness."
"... happy, Machia"
"Then I'm happy. When you're as happy as you are right now, you won't find it in retrospect."
……
Thor said "heh," which is a subtle reaction.
It was kind of awkward, so I stopped eating the cake and peeked into his face.
"Hey, you know what? I'm your wife now."
"... ha. You won't get away with it anymore."
"What are you, saying I'm your daughter-in-law and you have some complaints!?
A little angry, on the swell, Tor laughed out loud.
"What are you talking about? There's no reason to complain.... I say I look forward to seeing what tyrannical daughter-in-law you will be..."
"... oh, me, I think you're still a little calm."
"Really? It's not your fault."
……
Muck again.
Thor pinched my swollen cheek with his hand and held it down.
A large plate of missing lemon cake.
Instead, the morning sun had already risen completely and the brightness of the morning burn began to illuminate this Delia field.
"Look, look, Machia. Looks like wheat ho's on fire."
"... wow"
The wheat ears glow golden and are so beautiful.
……
Because of my breaking the laws of the world, from now on, it's still an unknown future to see what happens to this Mayday.
But the world is still, so beautiful, and I still feel the pulse of life.
It's not the beginning of the end, it's the beginning because it's over.
At that time, Kanon said this was hope.
Looking at the beautiful view of Wheat Ho, expectations filled my chest.
At the same time, I thought of this golden colour indefinitely.
"Guys...... how are you"
As soon as I did, I missed my corrupt companions, who are now separated.
"After a break in Delia Field, let's go see each one of them. We're not supposed to be resting forever. There are still mountains of things to do."
"... right"
"But well... rest a little longer, you are"
……
He stroked his head with a pom pom, so he put his head on the shoulder of Tor sitting next to him and gave himself up.
"Tor.................."
And recently became my husband, loving calling his name.
The man who promised to stay with me for the rest of his life called me by my name, "What the hell, Machia?"
"Tor...... I love you"
"... so am I. Machia...... I love you"
I love you.
Just saying those words made me feel so happy that I wanted to cry.
I'll probably never be able to use magic again.
But magic is something I don't need anymore.
Because even witches who could have used vicious magic to destroy the world didn't know the magic to be happy.
Living with the people you love...
That may have been a lot harder than magic.
To say that he was reincarnated more than once and would continue to chase people he loved more than once was very cute and painful.
"... but still, Thor... there are times when I still think that it might have been a lot more miraculous to be able to meet you again and again than to be bound."
"... Machia?
"I, I... have broken the laws of the world... we, already, in this world... eh"
Afraid to put words ahead of me, I pressed my face against Thor's shoulder.
What I'm trying to say is, I'm sure Thor is thinking about it.
But Thor held my head back and said:
"It's okay, Machia.... this is not the last time in the world"
"... Tor"
"Even if there is a next world, we will surely see each other. There's no law of the world... there's no bond like that, I'm sure I'll find you"
……
"So let's live to be happy."
Thor's serious eyes and calm voice were enough to make him believe the word.
I wipe the tears in my eyes and nod loudly.
Compared to the amount of memory I've had so far, what a really short time it could be for the rest of my life.
But still, we are young people awaiting a glorious future.
We talked to each other softly, clamped our foreheads, and held each other's hands.
I have no intention of letting go of that warmth.
Mayday's Morning Burn was sparingly illuminating the world as it blessed us finally bound.
The story of a long memory ends here once and for all.
And then we take a new stage from here, and we draw a new story.
Is that just a happy story without any glitch or suffering?
No, that won't happen.
A man is only alive, a creature who hits the pain of that time and fights every time.
Even me and Thor won't have anything to say well because we're a couple.
But if we remember the lives of the people we've met, the future we've won because of suffering...
From now on, no matter what difficulties you encounter, they may give you tips on how to get over it.
Someday we may be able to reach out to ourselves softly.
I can't forget the past.
But from here on out, it's really an unknown future yet.
If I could live a future full of anticipation and hope with Thor, I would have gotten what I always wanted.
It must be a once-in-a-lifetime without regret, going beyond eternal one-sidedness.
The road continues.
Our story is about to come.
