I Became the Burden of a Conscienceless Party

209 – Side Story 2. The Story After and What If (Complete)

And the story of what if (end)

After the relationship ended.

Jim was lying on his back with a blanket over his naked body.

“Sniff… … .”

It was one-sided.

It was to the point where you could call her Yurin.

Esmeralda was left exhausted both physically and mentally, and could only hide her tears in secret.

I was a victim of this incident.

“Well, it’s a shame.”

And Esmeralda, who could be called the perpetrator of this incident, was sitting next to Jim, eating the mushrooms she had left behind.

Since I had used up quite a bit of energy, I needed to replenish my nutrition.

It seems like he has no intention of hiding it anymore.

“But what can I do? It’s already happened.”

Esmeralda was shameless.

There was no need to fool myself since I had already gone as far as I could.

“You’re a married couple, right?”

“… … .”

Jim was speechless at that shameless sight. He must have said something like that.

I also agreed to what Jim had initially suggested, even if only as an idea.

But something is different.

Before I felt cheated, I felt robbed.

Did other people who were exposed to Jim’s s*xual harassment feel this way?

Jim was able to realize his actions belatedly and reflect on them.

“And I hope Mr. Jim enjoyed it too.”

“How shameless.”

“I guess you take after your husband.”

“I miss the old warrior.”

“Now that the warrior has retired, I guess you can call me Esmeralda.”

“Yes, Esmeralda.”

“Hi-Hi.”

Of course, Jim doesn’t truly resent Esmeralda.

He just grumbled. Jim quickly returned to his old self.

“It’s already humid, but it’s also humid in another way, which makes it difficult.”

“I wonder what that means. Should I check it out?”

“… … I will decline.”

Experience, you know.

Technology, you know.

I realized that such things mean nothing in the face of overwhelming power.

The demon king is defeated by the warrior.

Jim, who became the Demon King of the Night, was eventually defeated by the Warrior of the Night.

“By the way, Mr. Jim, aren’t you hungry?”

Esmeralda turned from her munching on mushrooms and asked Jim.

“Whose fault is it… … .”

Hungry? I can’t help but be hungry.

It wasn’t just that I stayed up all night, I didn’t even know if it was day or night.

Even if I had marched 40km, I would have been less tired than this.

Esmeralda responded to the discontented gaze with such a meaning with a sinister smile and said:

“Were you scared at first?”

“No.”

She was a beast from the start.

Didn’t you start by covering the luggage and knocking it over?

However, Esmeralda grumbled and denied Jim’s words again.

“It was scary, yes. But when I tried it, it turned out that it wasn’t something I needed to be that scared of.”

“… … .”

“It’s mutual fault, isn’t it? It was Mr. Jim who told me that mushrooms were okay.”

“You knew what that mushroom was from the beginning.”

“Me? I never said anything like that. Am I mistaken?”

“This is so shameless… … !”

“I can show you what real shamelessness is.”

Jim never imagined that he would be helpless in this situation.

However, as Jim, who had suffered his first defeat in that direction, and a crushing defeat at that, he could not help but be cautious.

Finally, Jim sighed.

If you think about it carefully, it won’t make much of a difference. Has it only been a day or two since he’s been watching Esmeralda’s every move?

As long as you don’t make things uncomfortable, nothing will happen.

“But, Mr. Jim.”

“Yes, Esmeralda.”

“When will the rain stop?”

“Well, it’s also the rainy season, so it might rain for quite a long time.”

“Yes?”

“Huh? Oh, yes… … .”

Jim felt a sense of unease at the sight of Esmeralda responding with a sparkling smile.

And that’s it.

“But Mr. Jim, do you know that this is all we have for food?”

“… … .”

It soon became clear what it meant.

Esmeralda’s eyes sparkle.

It was the bright smile of someone who became interested in and enjoyed experiencing something new for the first time.

“There must be something else.”

“I don’t think so?”

“No, but… … .”

“It’s not like you’ll die from eating it, and Jim said it’s his favorite food, so it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“It’s only embarrassing if you insist on such ridiculous excuses.”

“Haha, are you being unreasonable?”

Esmeralda slowly approached Jim, lying face down, avoiding him.

“Survival is important. So there’s no need to be unreasonable.”

In her hand she held the mushroom she had been eating a moment ago.

The rain didn’t stop.

The air was still humid.

And that moisture.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

It was expected to continue for some time.

***

After the rain stopped and the two found their way back to the Demon King’s Castle based on their original plan.

The appearances of the two people who returned that way looked extremely contrasting.

“Was it a rough journey…?”

Irina is disgusted by the sight of the two people who have returned.

She had a rough idea of ​​what had happened to Esmeralda, who had become shiny and shiny, and Jim, who had turned into spinach that looked like it had been rescued from hell.

“As expected, you are a warrior.”

Irina, who had been thoroughly toyed with by the Demon King, was able to respect the existence of a hero for the first time in her life.

That never happened even when I was in the warrior party.

However, we cannot help but pay tribute to Esmeralda’s power, which achieved the feat of defeating the Demon King.

“Then let’s go in. Wouldn’t it be better to wash up and eat first?”

“Is that so?”

“… … Ah, yes.”

Esmeralda answered with a smile so bright it reminded her of the sun, while Jim answered with a desolate expression, like someone who had lost the world.

And so ended Demon King Jim’s brief escape.

The Demon King who had worried everyone paid a harsh price, and the hero defeated the Demon King and brought peace.

“I’m having dinner tonight with pine mushrooms… … .”

“Kuaaah!”

“Wh-what is it, Mr. Jim? Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

“No, mushrooms are not allowed.”

“yes?”

In the midst of a small incident, Jim’s journey of hardship began.

The story after (end)

***

Jim’s escape is over.

He returned to his daily life and was able to quietly go about his daily routine of doing what needed to be done at the Demon King’s Castle.

The wives who used to always be at each other’s throats now acknowledge each other and share the burdens together… no, they live together supporting each other.

so that.

“Lord Robeno.”

“Huh? Oh, yes. Your Majesty the Demon King.”

“Don’t you plan on becoming the Demon King?”

Jim felt like he was going to die.

Esmeralda alone would be hard to bear, but with the addition of others, it would be physically unbearable.

Moreover, since the Demon King’s work was not easy, Jim spent his days sleeping with his eyes open.

The first thought that came to mind was, of course, escape… … .

I know now. I have experienced what kind of ending escape brings.

So a second option was needed, and that was to eliminate one of the causes of Jim’s fatigue: his workload.

At such a solemn offer, Robeno closed his eyes tightly and took out what was hidden in his bosom.

“Resignation”

Jim burst into laughter with a pale face at the sight of Robeno, who was showing a great example of a social person by always carrying a resignation letter in his arms without any answer.

“No, I was joking. Haha!”

Jim eventually gave up everything.

I decided to adapt to reality.

A daily routine where you have to handle the Demon King’s business during the day and become a Demon King of another meaning at night.

No, what’s more, even if there’s just a little bit of a gap, the wives’ seduction begins.

And there was one thing that started to change in that regular routine.

“… … .”

The former Demon King Belphegor still resides in the Demon King’s castle.

No, rather, due to various political reasons, he had no choice but to remain in the Demon King’s Castle.

In fact, the current Belphegor is one that has no excuses even if he is locked up in an underground prison.

How could she possibly dare complain?

Yeah, you shouldn’t complain.

however…….

“What the fuck.”

Belphegor, who was lying in his room, buried his face in the pillow and covered his ears.

This damn beast -like beasts do not cover day and night.

“Do you think I live here alone…?”

And Belphegor has such great physical abilities that it’s ridiculous to compare him to the warrior Esmeralda.

That means she had hearing that allowed her to hear everything that was happening in the Demon King’s castle.

And because of that hearing, she had to listen to the whining sound day and night.

And that too with his own nephew involved.

“This won’t do.”

Belphegor, who had been burying his face in the pillow, raised his head.

It doesn’t work in many ways.

I can’t stand it like this.

It’s like Jim’s been feeling physically tired lately.

She was already lazy. There was a reason why she couldn’t help but be lazy, so the noises she heard day and night were enough to disturb her sleep.

So she made up her mind.

“To solve the fundamental problem… … .”

Belphegor raised his head, his face flushed red with shame. After suffering for nearly a month, he finally made up his mind.

And that resolution is… … .

“I have to drop the guy.”

It was completed in the form of dropping luggage at the Demon King’s Castle.

And for that too… … .

“The former Demon King Belphegor kidnapped His Majesty and escaped to the human world!”

The Demon King Belphegor kidnapped Jim and escaped to the human world.

It was a moment when perhaps a new story might begin.
