A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

"- A holy knight, you do that, too. It seems like a lot of work is going on inside."

"Well, uh, the arbitration was about the time I was on the scene, and even if I was called in, it was the guards who were on their way, and it's not uncommon. I may have had this experience a few times since I became a saint."

I thought you were used to it.

"Carotta taught me how to handle things."

Oh...... if you're that lady knight, you sure seem to be a good responder to that.

- What was happening at the end of the anger I heard was nothing, it was just that the drunk was drunk, and there was a grudge with the clever shopkeeper.

Nell calmed each other down, and the drunkenness broke the store's merchandise compensation, so the story came to an end, and one settled down.

We decided to do something about the rest between ourselves, and we were back for another walk in the flea market.

"... I was more surprised that you were short tempered as far as I was concerned. You were both turning bright blue because of your anger. I told you I was used to it, but if I was that obedient, everyone would be able to fit right in."

"Hey, hey, haha..."

I smile deceptively at Nell, who looks up at me with his eyes.

Well, "you little ass blue girl, don't squeak out of the side!!" or "hehe, lady, you're cute. What do you say we raise the pennies?" Or if I hadn't tried to turn my hand around Nell's waist, I'd have kept my mouth shut.

In front of me, if they imitate me licking that much, I'll be on a boulder... hey?

"I'm glad you're mad at me. But just to be clear, it's usual for me to be insulted by my looks, and I'm used to it. Don't take matters seriously."

"I'm sorry. But, well, even if you're used to it, I'm not. Besides, I don't plan on getting used to it in the future. So give it up when you're with me."

"... that's a cowardly way of saying it, oh dear."

"Oh, I don't think you can get any angrier if you say so."

"... already"

I laugh and pull her hand at Nell, who sighs like trouble and smiles bitterly.

"Sa, see, let's go. I've been looking around a little longer."

"Yes, yes, I got it."

- Around the evening, when the area came dark.

"- Well, then..."

Shall we do what we do for our lovely daughter-in-law?

"Nell, I'm just gonna go."

"Yeah, there you go. Be careful. En, you have to protect her."

"... I'll take care of it"

"No, Mr. Nell. Isn't that the other way around?"

"What are you talking about? It's natural for you to protect En, right? But En is also your most trusted weapon, so I think it's En who can support you where you're a little worried."

"... it's okay. The Lord protects."

"Yeah, please, En"

Nico laughs and gently strokes En's head, Nell.

Let's smile bitterly at the two words and then put the mask on our own faces.

"Okay, En, I'm sorry, it's time to get some sleep, but please"

"... ok"

Snorted cocklessly, unanthropomorphizing and holding En back in the knife body in one hand, I jumped out the royal castle window to the outside of the castle with Nell's drop-off sideways.

Slip through the side of the night police soldier, over the walls of the royal castle, and let yourself into the darkness of the alley behind the king's capital.

Because they've already activated their covert skills, they won't even notice if I walk past them. You won't find out if you do a super boiling one-shot show right in front of you. I won't do it though.

In the darkness of the bright night sky and the only light that leaks slightly from the surrounding house, I speak to En on my shoulders as I walk.

"How was it, en. For a day with the princess. Did you have a good time?

'... it was fun. The castle was amazing, too. Ilyl looks a little like Iruna. "

"Oh, well, you're both healthy. Sure, the type could be similar."

"... the name, too, is similar"

"Ooh. Well, yeah."

Sure, although they both start with "a" and have a bit of similarity in their language.

"... did the Lord have fun with Nell?

"Oh, wow. That was fun. Thanks, En. You took care of me so we could be together, didn't you?

'... okay. I had fun with Ilil, and En, I can always stay with the Lord. But Nell can't stay. "

"... right"

'... So, Lord, stay with Nell all the time?

"Whoa. Whatever you can, I will."

The pattern of En in the sheath was stroked as two.

- I'm stalking (...) the daytime stalker bastard the other way now (...).

The shadow that was stealing about me and Nell seemed to have been watching the area for some time after we got back to the Royal Castle to see the map and Evil Eye footage, but seeing that there was no movement here, I left earlier.

Perhaps he went back to reporting to the Lord.

They're not going to get their hands on it right now because they're going to get rid of Nell, but I'm interested in who the watchman is and what the report says.

I want you to know what was stalking us for, and if you're checking my face under the mask.

In short, you're gathering information for the future.

I'm taking En for what if. Even if we get into enemy territory, we can't fit in without weapons.

- No, actually, I don't even get in.

"Okay, I found it. Come on."

That said, I release the ebill ear I took out of the item box toward the man walking early in the front.

The maximum-charged Evil Year disappeared into darkness as soon as he left my hand, silently winging his ear feathers, and headed toward the target man I had designated, the stalker bastard.

Now you'll know what you want to know, even if I don't go directly and listen.

Well, when I released Evil Eye during the day, if I had let Evil Eye go with me, I wouldn't have bothered to come out like this now and stalk the stalker bastard.

I had no idea that I would need an ebill year later as well. Yes.

... I just wanted to see and check with my own eyes where the enemy is living as well as on the map and ebill-eye footage, and since it's time to run the free ebill-eye since daylight is the limit, I should have stayed as close as possible to make it easier to collect, so I would have ended up going outside.

Yeah. That's what we'll do.

And, within that thought, apparently the watchman reached his destination, entering the interior of a single building -.

"... ah?

That voice leaks out of my mouth.

... What's this all about?

Where the man arrived.

It was the Church headquarters in Wangdu (...), where Nell and I also recently went.

After all, I was wondering if you were going to a fucking nobleman like Argos or some of his men's mansions... to a boulder. This is unexpected.

Why would the Church spy on us?

… for any reason, wouldn't it be a pleasant imagination, no matter what you think, for an organization to keep a close watch on its people?

After all, I was right to come outside myself.

If I had just peeked out of the royal castle, I might have been supposed to let Nell hear stories I didn't want him to hear much about.

Before I came out earlier, I was glad I wanted to follow you by saying, "I'm not going to make a big deal out of it, I'll be right back."

- Fair enough. Anyway, let me ask you something very carefully about what the Church thought was tailing us.
