I Misunderstood the Date and Saved the Demon King

27. He and She

Demon King Marmar is currently in a bad mood. It’s not just her.

Astaroth, Sitri, who are like her real sisters, and even El, who refrains from expressing emotions quite a bit. Everyone was showing off without even thinking about hiding the sign that they were ‘very annoying’.

The cause was the elf who was sitting on a bench in the distance and chatting with Lethe.

“….”

Marmar’s eyes are more desolate and cold than the cold wind blowing in midwinter. I’m suppressing it for now, but it keeps creeping up. And even the instinctive wriggling that wants to disturb the relationship between the two.

Just a while ago, I got a bunch of collectibles after a long time. So I felt very good.

From the students I saved, I heard that they were conspiring with each other, and that they were scheming, and finally had to accept the result of the academy’s closure order.

To be honest, it didn’t matter much to Marmar whether there were students or not, whether the academy closed or not. Rather, it can be said that it is refreshing to see that the flying flies that were bothering me are gone.

The problem is that Lethe has something to do with it. She is quite embarrassing for him as an academy instructor. When there are no students, there is an order to close the school, so what is there to do alone here?

She is Lette who said she wanted to stay quiet at the academy. The demon kings still remember her words.

I was sorry that things had gotten too big because of them. If I had known this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have been too greedy with collectibles. I’ll just pack one twenty and get the rest sorted out quickly.

Since he has been wasting too much time and only strange words are being circulated, Marmar can’t shake the feeling that he is pretty much to blame.

In the meantime, an elf named Lidice came. I was not in a good mood, but it was like pouring sh*t on it properly, so it was a natural result that the atmosphere was extremely hideous.

“City Tree.”

“Yes, Mar.”

“Did you say that blue-haired elf, E Lidike?”

“Right. Warrior of the Blue Moon Tribe. A comrade who fought alongside the master during the war.”

Comrades in arms, comrades. Woman and colleague. All in all, an elf. Marmar kooked and bit his lip.

Look at him sitting over there and chatting with Lethe. Oh god, i’m laughing He even smiles and is just paying the price.

Uh-

I feel like my eyes will go blind with jealousy. I want to take Lete away from that woman.

The other demon lords are with Lete, yes. I can’t concede, but I can understand. But other women never allow it. If you have any complaints, have you known Lete from before?

How much Lete treated them dearly. She cut down not only the demon hunters who tried to hunt her, but even the humans who came to know how to find them, who fell into the theory of hating demons.

I just want you to go straight ahead. Lethe’s words clearly remained in Marmar’s heart, as well as to Astaroth, Sitri, and El.

I did that. In order to approach him straight, without any twist. With the thought that we should give him the end of the war he wants and take his side.

Sure. That man is ours. It’s mine He cannot yield to anyone else. My uncle, my brother, my master, my Lete. Those thoughts filled the hearts of the demon lords.

Especially since they are demons who can’t be friendly with the Elf race!

“That comrade… It’s a title you got because you helped your brother a lot, right?”

“Perhaps. As far as I know, he said he also captured several demon lords.”

“Okay. Comrade. Colleague. My brother’s colleague….”

It’s really annoying. Students who keep tickling at them, nobles trying to find gaps. I was so annoyed that nothing compared to that.

“… Just kill the rats and birds later without knowing?”

It seems that Astaroth has already made up his mind towards elimination. Even that El is muttering in a small voice, ‘I’ll support you,’ as if he didn’t really want to stop it.

Marmar also felt similar to them. Other women can’t tolerate it. She is all just herself and her three sisters. Lethe doesn’t need more than that. It’s all cumbersome baggage!

“No, Ashu.”

But unlike those feelings, Marmar’s reason captured the Butcher and the Iron Witch.

“Right. No. Can’t you see that? The master is treating you as his own person. But do we think recklessly and act arbitrarily? How angry he must be.”

“Ugh! That, then cancel. I won’t kill that elf.”

“… Me too.”

The two demon lords take a step back from Sitri’s restraint. Even so, she couldn’t help feeling that Ly Dicke was going crazy because she didn’t like her.

“For now, let’s just watch.”

“But! Mar!”

“For now. Later, later really one in a while… That elf. No. It won’t hurt to chew on it, if the damned goblin tries to cross the line….”

The heart collector, Marmar, who told the hero, ‘Hearts of demons look like this!’, Continued as if declaring with flashing red eyes.

“I’m going to take out the heart and chew it carefully.”

Then Astaroth smiled as if he was satisfied.

“The head is mine. Sitri, are you not interested?”

“… If you really want to do that, drain all the blood.”

“Kill.”

It was the moment when the fate of the parties knew nothing about it.

*

“Aww.”

I suddenly get chills. Why are you doing this? I’ve never had anything like this before. Lydike checked her arm as she cradled her body. Oh so so goosebumps, it’s a bit strange.

“Lidike?”

There was no way that Lethe, who was sitting next to her, was unaware of such a change in Ridike.

“What’s up? Why all of a sudden Even your body trembles.”

“Oh, no. I suddenly get chills. Umm, are you trying to catch a cold?”

This is nonsense. Even elves don’t catch colds, let alone Lydike. A warrior from the Blue Moon Tribe has a cold? Rather, it would be faster for demons to fall into depression.

If the owner of the Steel Hand Blacksmith had heard this sound, he would have laughed and said, ‘Drink the f*ck, warrior chief!’

But the owner of the blacksmith, with whom Lidike was not on good terms, is not here. Instead he cut down her demons with her. Lethe, who was a trustworthy colleague to each other, is in place.

It doesn’t really matter if you can catch a cold from him, who has the mindset that he takes care of his people unconditionally. And it wasn’t even an issue to discuss.

“That’s why I told you to dress well.”

Lethe, who was tongue-tied at Ly Dicke’s thin dress, slung the robe she was wearing over her onto her shoulders.

She was the first and fastest woman to help herself out of the prideful elves. A comrade who somehow supported Lethe despite the checks and resistance of her own people.

Above all, the few comrades who made me laugh for a while on that desolate battlefield.

It can be said that the debt has been paid off by saving lives, but originally, the favor given for the first time is so precious that nothing can repay it. Because of her

, Lethe tried to be nice to her. As a bonus, she tried to be tolerant of the elves who kept scratching her, even if it was because she saw Ly Dicke’s face.

Of course, to a certain extent. If she crosses the line, she’ll break the heads of Lee Dicke and all her elves.

“Are you okay now?”

“Yes, yes. Okay… Same.”

It’s actually a lie. The moment Lethe’s clothes covered her shoulders, she felt a thicker chill.

This, this is like the demon lords I killed with my own eyes full of resentment. It feels like you’re staring at yourself in hell. Oh, it can’t be Lydike shook her head.

“….”

I look at the man sitting next to me with a sidelong glance. A war hero, a comrade in arms, a colleague, leaving all those things behind. Someone I once loved very much, and I still love the other person as much as I did back then.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“Yes?”

“You’re staring at me.”

“Oh, I… those devils From what I see, it really seems to follow you.”

“Did you not hear? I said I found those guys before and took them with me.”

“I heard. I heard of course. And….”

“You must have heard that I tried to side with the demons at first, right?”

Then, Ridike’s face is grotesquely distorted. I don’t know who said that, but it’s like I want to chase after you right away and show you.

“That is not even worth hearing. You know, Lethe.”

“I know. Even those who say that don’t really have any intention of calling me a traitor. They’re just grumbling like kids. Please take care of yourself too. They accuse a war hero of being a traitor just because it has been years since the end of the war. And then what if those heroes hold the sword upside down? Yes?”

It would not be an illusion that the smile drawn on Lethe’s lips felt creepy.

Ridike herself knows better than anyone else. Character of this man. First of all, he is infinitely generous to his people or to those who treat him well, but he never tolerates those who show hostility.

“I haven’t seen my face for a while. Have you been very busy?”

“Unlike the Empire, the Elves are still noisy. It’s not like there’s a strong political center called the imperial family.”

“I know. Tribes bickering every day. Are you still at odds with the Oak Lake bastards and the Red Vine?”

Indicating that, Ly Dicke nodded his head.

“If you don’t listen, you lose.”

“Les, Lethe?”

“You are good at that. Are you famous? I hope all of our children know. Eridike, an elf who killed more demons with bows than with arrows.”

In an instant, the woman’s face turns red. I’m embarrassed. She is ashamed to die! Pride as an elf is also pride, but more than that, the person I like is like that!

“Ooh, don’t laugh! Lethe! Do not laugh! Stop laughing!!”

If I had known this would happen, I would have held back and shot more arrows even if I didn’t get hit. I couldn’t overcome my temper, saying I couldn’t shoot anything that didn’t hit me anymore, so I killed it with a bow.

Even today, Lee Dike could not help but resent his past self.
