132 – Delinia – 6

“I’m tired… no matter how long we’ve been together, it’s like that. How can you hold onto a person like this… ugh…”

As soon as she returned to the mansion, Rosé leaned against the handrail of the stairs and stretched out.

The reason why I didn’t even call it a joke was because really, really many people rushed to say hello to Rosé.

What kind of life did people live in Delenia that people like so much?

“Hey… … . it’s hard… … .”

“sister! You can’t stretch out here! Wake up soon!”

“Ella~ Carry it on~”

“… … When did you say that you are the best power of the Euglia family? Now, are you faking it?”

“Chit. This is why I don’t like quick-witted elves.”

“Let’s go to sleep, hurry up and wash up and go to sleep!”

“yes… … .”

“Oh, Rosé, I will take you to your room and come back.”

“Yes, tequila. Please.”

Rosé slowly climbs the stairs with the help of tequila.

Seeing Rosé’s back, Ella sighed and shook her head.

“To think that the mansion became so noisy as soon as my sister came. After all, my sister is amazing.”

After confirming that the rosé had risen completely, I too. I noticed that the mansion was quieter than before we left.

“Are your parents away?”

“yes? Ah yes! It’s a festival after all. My parents are also the lords of Euglia, so they have to keep their place at the festival on days like this.”

“Right.”

Certainly, among the elves, they were the parents of Rosé and Ella, the lords of a large family, so it was strange that they were confined to the mansion.

“By the way, isn’t Gregory-sama also a lord? As far as I know, when it comes to demonic grand dukes, most of them have their own territories.”

“… … You mean my territory?”

right. there was something like that

To be honest, I completely forgot about it after stopping by once in the past.

When I reached 5 stars, I had to go, I had to go, and even though I went through all sorts of hardships, I still got 4 stars.

The last time I went to the territory, I realized that I was only able to go because of Paimon’s help, but I had never been there myself.

“… … Gregory?”

According to the setting, all the underground areas of the demon realm are my territory. However, what would happen if I nailed it here and said, ‘All the underground areas of the demon realm are my territory.’

To be honest, I didn’t know that I would be treated like a madman. In that case… … .

“It just has a decent territory. Now, I’m entrusting the duties of the lord to a retainer as proxy.”

“… … To be honest, I still can’t believe it. My sister’s summoned beast is the grand duke of the Demon Realm. Even two! When I think of my older sister before entering the academy, I wonder if it is really a dream.”

… … To be precise, I wanted to say that there will be three of us soon, but for now, we decided to stay still.

“Still, I think it’s really fortunate that unnie is still bright. What to say at first He seemed very anxious.”

“… … You mean Rose?”

“Yes, the repertoire of letters coming home was all the same. ‘I ate with my friend today’, ‘I played with my friend’, ‘I talked with my friend’, things like that. I wasn’t worried at first. I thought you were doing really well. But, at some point, I realized. The fact that none of my friends’ names were written in her letters.”

You knew roughly what Rose’s academy was about… … .

“But, one day, the letters started not coming. I was worried about what was going on. How many weeks have passed like that? A letter from my sister has arrived. By the way, do you know what was written there?”

“Something was written, but.”

“sorry! I forgot to play! There is something like this really! Do you know how worried I and my parents were!”

Ella stomps her feet while inflating her cheeks. Until now, I acted like a grown-up in front of Rosé, but when I saw her showing off her heartache as soon as her sister disappeared, she was really a younger sister. I thought.

“But, wasn’t it nice?”

“yes?”

At my question, Ella looks at me with a startled expression.

“After all, didn’t receiving that letter make you stop worrying?”

“Yeah, that’s right, but… … .”

“As Rosé said, you are a good younger brother.”

“Yes, four?! Tea, what a good younger brother!”

“Rosé used to tell me about you once in a while. A younger brother who is greater than himself. I mean, he’s such a good little brother.”

“Oh, did your sister say that?”

“But I hope you don’t tell me that I said this. If you do, you’ll be pissed off at me too.”

Ella, who only told a little of what she had heard from Rosé, but her face turned red.

For some reason, I felt the innocence in his appearance, and I smiled without even realizing it.

“I’ll be busy from tomorrow, so I’ll just go in.”

Leaving Ella behind, I also go up the stairs. Then a voice came from behind.

“I’ll see you tomorrow! Rest well!”

“okay.”

… … Ella also subtly resembles Rosé.

* * *

[Gregory! It’s Rosé! may I come in?]

As the sun shining through the thin curtains was tickling my cheeks, I heard Rosé’s voice through the door.

“Can you wait a minute?”

[Ah yes!]

I was lying on the bed with wheel foam, so Rose was surprised again. I canceled the transformation, got up from the bed, checked my clothes once, and shouted in the direction where Rose was standing.

“You may come in now.”

“yes! Excuse me!”

Rosé bursts open the door and enters the room.

however… … .

“Rosé.”

“yes?”

“What is that like?”

“Muh Ga-young?”

Rosé tilts her head while wearing a bunch of cross-shaped necklaces and bracelets worn by priests and nuns.

As soon as I saw her, I sighed.

“… … Rosé.”

“yes?”

“Leave it all and go.”

“Yeah?! Eh, all of this?! The villagers gave it to me as a present to beware of the undead… … ?! They said they had divine power and would protect them from the undead!”

Rosé shakes her wrist jingling jingle and explains the reason diligently to me.

It would be faster to show it than to say it.

I immediately grabbed Rose’s wrist.

“That, Mr. Gregory?”

“Rosé.”

“Yes, yes!”

“What is my race?”

“yes? uh, uh… … A demon?”

“yes. Then, what should happen if I touch this bracelet containing divine power?”

“… … Will it hurt?”

“Are you sick? By the way, how do I look now?”

“You don’t look sick?”

“Why aren’t you sick?”

“Isn’t it because Gregory-sama is a very strong demon?”

her… … . I didn’t expect an answer like this to come out.

“Yes, I am a fairly strong demon, but no demon in the world can ignore the divine power.”

“yes? Then it’s not that Gregory-sama is strong and doesn’t hurt… … .”

“Yes, I know the villagers gave it to you out of concern, but… … . That bracelet, I can’t feel the divine power at all.”

“yes?! You don’t have divine power! So, was it just an ordinary pretty bracelet?”

“… … I guess.”

“Huh… … .”

In the end, Rosé begins to take off her bracelet and necklace with a sullen face. how much did you expect The long, stiff ears were also drooping down.

hmm… … .

“A bracelet might be fine.”

“Really?!”

“Yes, isn’t it a pretty bracelet?”

“lol! Then I will wear the bracelet!”

Rosé caresses the bracelet with a bright smile in an instant, as if the bracelet that the villagers gave her as a gift was so precious.

however.

“Rosé. So why did you come here in the morning?”

“yes? Oh right! I almost forgot! Mom told me to bring Gregory over for breakfast!”

“… … ah. morning.”

I thought something had happened because I had been wearing jewelry since morning again, but fortunately it didn’t seem to be a big deal.

“Yes, my mother told me to take Gregory with me, saying that today is going to be pretty difficult, so you must eat breakfast.”

“Okay, go with me.”

“yes!”

As I was leaving the room with Rosé and heading towards the dining room, Rosé looked at me and opened her mouth.

“Gregory. I have a question for you.”

“what?”

“It was 1:00 PM when we decided to go to Lily-sama’s grave, right? By the way, does Halloween overtake us even if we go in broad daylight?”

“Oh, you said you hadn’t been through Halloween yet.”

“Yes, because the adults didn’t let us go out of town during Halloween.”

Hmmm, how should I explain this.

“Halloween is like a colony where the dead gather. And due to the nature of the colony, it exudes tremendous morale. And that condensed morale forms a kind of space that protects the Hive from the sun. We call this space ‘Eclipse’.”

In the game, the name of the dungeon was Eclipse, but given the setting, this is probably correct.

“So you’re saying it’s really dark inside?”

“yes. It forms an eclipse during the day and wanders around at night. And in this case, it can be seen that an eclipse was created near Lily’s grave. And, we will be fighting the undead horde there.”

No matter how perfect the operation is. It was obviously going to be a difficult fight.

“Because Gregory-sama is the strongest! There will be no problem!”

“okay.”

If Rosé thought of me that way, all I had to do was really become the ‘strongest’.

“Oh, you have arrived.”

When we arrived at the restaurant, Rosé’s mother, Mint, greeted the two of us with a bright smile.

“Are you going to do something big today? So I tried my best.”

“… … Certainly, what a table.”

If yesterday’s food was very good for the body, this time it could be said to be a table made with real elixirs.

Ingredients that were hard to find even at the imperial family festival were filling the table.

“Because you are going to a dangerous place. You can’t come because you’re hurt, right?”

Mint winked at me and sat down. Then, this time, Valentine, who was sitting next to her, opens his mouth.

“Rosé. Do you know what Eclipse is?”

“of course! It’s a space created by a combination of morale!”

Rosé snorted confidently as he looked at Valentine who suddenly asked him a question.

I didn’t know until just now, but now I’m really confident.

“Yeah, I’m glad you know. Rosé As you said, Eclipse is a space for the undead who are inactive during the day. So, if something dangerous happens, you just have to escape Eclipse. Got it?”

“The strongest power of the Euglia family. Just trust Rosé!”

Seeing Rosé shouting with confidence, Mint and Valentine look at me this time.

“Please take good care of Rosé and Ella.”

“I will only trust Prince Gregory.”

Yes. They were also parents. Even though she went to the academy and experienced countless battles, in their eyes, Rosé is just a weak daughter.

So, they were talking to me.

Make sure to protect your daughters.

Here, the answer I will give has already been decided.

“Stake your life.”

He declared to them that he would protect them.
