Funeral, what should I do if I reincarnate as a demon?

The Buried Frillian·The Journey Officially Begins: Chapter 29 Cony’s Way of Repaying the Gratitude·The Unlucky Yubel Duncan’s Last Stand

Instead of the friend who suddenly appeared to save him in his fantasy, it was the uncle who cheated on him at noon, replacing his imaginary best friend, and just standing next to the corpse baiting bird.

Even before she was surprised...

boom--! ! !

"——Ugh!?"

As Ash stood firm, the horrifying sonic boom exploded a beat later, causing her to instinctively cover her ears, close her eyes and scream in surprise.

But when he opened his eyes again, the pressure on his body had disappeared.

The corpse baiting bird that was oppressing him had fallen to the side and lost its heart. Its huge body was turning into magic particles and gradually dissipating.

But what happened during the whole process... She couldn't understand it at all, and she didn't see it clearly.

But the figure that appeared like a gust of wind, the moment it appeared in front of her and the threat was driven away, the real feeling of being liberated from despair was so strong that she stared blankly at the figure that she should have resisted.

"Um...I'm sorry, you're late?" Noticing the tears flashing in her eyes, and probably understanding that the child was frightened, Ash shook his head helplessly, then smiled apologetically and faced her He stretched out his hand: "...Can you get up?"

"Of course..."

Kang Ni wiped his tearful eyes hard, hesitated for a moment but then carefully grabbed his hand and used his strength to stand up.

But even though she grabbed his hand, the girl still had a look of shock on her face, which troubled Ash for a moment, then he reached out and touched the smooth orange hair: "So good, so good~"

"...As I said, I'm not a pet..." The strange treatment made Kang Ni suddenly look awkward.

"Don't worry about the details, I just want you to calm down."

"Thank you...but that's not the detail."

Although the conversation overlapped with the one at noon, the dissatisfaction on Kang Ni's face was not as strong as before. She didn't even push his hand away, but tried hard to refute, and just sat there with a frustrated expression. The edge of the forest, the edge of a prominent cliff.

After sighing helplessly, the girl muttered to herself:

"Uncle... he is indeed very powerful, right?"

"It's not bad." He hesitated for a moment, then sat next to Kang Ni. Thinking of the name she had mentioned before, he couldn't help but sigh: "But no matter how many fights there are, the relationship between you and Labine has always been good. Great."

"...Because I have always been timid and always unable to do anything at critical moments...Although Rabigne is very rough, he has always guided me."

Perhaps it was because he was not present, or perhaps it was because he had unconsciously called out the name of his friend who was always fighting. The name had been exposed clearly, so Kang Ni did not hide it and said bluntly:

"...It was also thanks to Rabigne that I realized that as long as we move forward bravely, no matter how terrible things are, there will always be a way to solve them."

"Not bad~ It's such an enviable friendship."

"...Isn't the relationship between uncle and Fulilian also very good?"

"Because I've known him for a long time. Although he is a troublesome guy, he is sometimes cute...but he is a little too vindictive, which is very troublesome."

"Hey~ Isn't Fulilian very mature?" Kang Ni turned his head to look in surprise, but he shook his head with a sneer:

"What are you thinking? She is much more childish than you think. If you call her uncle, I will rub your belly at most, but if you call her uncle three times, she will cry for you for three days and three nights, and she will bore you to death. "

"You're lying, right? Uncle is definitely lying!"

"Why did I lie to you? And haven't I told you before? I am already gentle and kind, and Fulian is the real troublemaker."

He mercilessly said bad things about Fulilian behind her back... which may not be considered bad words, but can only be regarded as the unknown truth.

But when Kang Ni completely forgot about her previous troubles and showed a curious smile, he couldn't help but grab her ponytail:

"Speaking of which...you were in a bad state just now. I don't care about you, but now you are calling me an uncle again, right?"

"Uncle, that's too much! No one would grab a girl's hair casually!"

"It's okay, I didn't exert any force."

"It doesn't hurt, but it's very strange! The mood is also very strange!" The constant strange treatment made Kang Ni couldn't help but doubt: "Uncle...don't you really treat me as a pet?"

"Nothing like that, it's just fun..." He mumbled and looked away.

This attitude made Kang Ni distressed for a while, but she couldn't help shaking her head and laughing: "Now that I think about it, uncle is really surprisingly interesting~"

"....Don't call me uncle."

"Speaking of which, uncle..." Kang Ni's eyes circled around him a few times, then searched around him, and couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Where is your cage?"

"Cage? Uh...?" He was also reminded, and then he touched his waist and found that the thing that should have been hanging on the side was not there. He couldn't help but cover his mouth and muttered: "Oops... It was a bit too hasty and I forgot all about this?"

"——Can you forget this kind of thing?! Go back and look for it quickly?" Kang Ni was about to get up eagerly, but Ash held her shoulders and pushed her down again:

"Forget it, it's dark and there's nowhere to go; you don't have anything to do now anyway, so this is acceptable."

"... Can this kind of thing be let go like this?"

"I don't care."

"This is a first-level magician exam! What on earth are you doing here?" Although he was a little speechless about his attitude, facing that warm gaze and thinking of his words, Connie couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart.

But in his sight, he turned his face away unconsciously and said softly: "But... no matter what, I have to thank you, uncle."

"No... Before that, you should apologize to me first, right? Aren't you calling me uncle again?"

"Yes, yes, then..."

Connie couldn't help shaking his head and laughing at his strange concern, but he grabbed his hand on his shoulder.

After a while of worry, he supported himself with both hands and leaned back slightly.

Under Ash's puzzled gaze, she shyly turned her face to the side, her voice as thin as a mosquito:

"...If it's just a light touch, it's not...completely unacceptable..."

"??? What do you mean?"

"You, you always...always wanted to touch my belly? So, so..."

"Huh? Is it really okay?"

Although this was indeed the idea he proposed at noon, after all, rubbing the belly when teasing a pet is nothing more than common...

But he never thought that Connie would actually agree to it, because even just now, Connie was still opposing the treatment of pets.

Now not only willing to expose the belly to apologize? Even....can you touch it?

"After all...didn't the uncle save me? So, so...it's better to repay that favor quickly...otherwise, who knows if you will make any strange requests?"

Ash was disheveled in the wind, while Connie closed his eyes tightly, his heart beating like a drum, nervous for the upcoming intimate contact.

Her cheeks had quietly turned red, and this shyness revealed a pure beauty that was hard to resist.

The girl's red cheeks looked even more charming in the moonlight.

It was this unexpected cuteness that made Ash reach out his hand, which he wanted to refuse.

One of his hands gently fell on her flat and warm belly, and his fingertips felt the delicate and smooth touch, while the other hand could not help but stroke her head along her soft orange hair.

Although he was very happy and novel to touch her, and felt that the door to a new world was about to be opened, he could even feel her body trembling slightly.

But... the girl whose belly was touched, her breathing became rapid and subtle.

Connie tried to restrain the fluctuations in her heart and tried to make herself look calmer.

However, behind those closed eyes, there was an indescribable strong sense of shame.

She could feel the warmth of Ash's palm, and that warmth seemed to penetrate her skin and reach her heart, making her heart beat more violently.

....To be honest, although it was her own proposal, it was more of a polite feeling. She thought they should give in to each other and then laugh it off.

But she really didn't expect that Ash would actually do it? There was no feeling of refusing or being polite, which made her feel a little bit trapped.

..............................

..............................

The air around them seemed to become more subtle as time passed.

Just as Connie was ashamed and wanted to find a place to hide, Ash also found that he seemed to have touched a little too much.

Although it was indeed someone else's invitation, he should not have any responsibility? Maybe... is that the case? - To be honest, he himself was a little unconfident.

Just as Ash was thinking about how to peacefully end the strange situation at the scene, a sudden voice broke the delicate balance at the scene:

".... I say, it's really a bit strange for you to do this in the middle of the night. It's almost time to go to bed, right?"

"——?!"

They were startled at the same time and turned around.

But Fulilian appeared behind them at some point, squatting not far away with her hands on her knees, observing them expressionlessly.

That look was just like when she watched Zain sink into the swamp that day, but compared to the indifference of that day, now there seemed to be a faint smile at the corner of her mouth - a malicious smile.

This made Connie's cheeks instantly red to her ears, and she sat up straight, hurriedly pulling the corners of her clothes with both hands, trying to cover up her shyness.

And Ash also quickly withdrew his hand, stood up, with a slightly embarrassed smile on his face, trying to ease the sudden strange atmosphere.

"Ah.... Ahem, Fulilian, the weather is good tonight, and tomorrow will definitely be good weather!" Ash took the lead in breaking the silence, trying to change the subject with a small talk.

But Connie, who instinctively hid behind him, couldn't help but gently tug at his sleeves and whispered: "Uncle, it's raining outside the barrier now...!"

"....It doesn't matter what the reality is like at this time, what matters is to change the subject!" Ash looked back with a feeling of disappointment, whispered a warning, and then looked back at the girl who was sitting there with her knees hugged and motionless.

He was still thinking about what to say, but Fulilian, with a headache expression, spoke first: "Don't guess it yourself, how many times have I heard you say this?"

"...Really? A lot?"

"My ears are calloused from hearing it."

"I'm so sorry...I'll think of a better one next time, but it's getting late now, so I'd better go back to sleep first!"

Think of a better one? Why should I think of a better one? Isn't this a successful change of subject? As long as I'm complained about, it's a success! ——He said this calmly, and planned to bypass Fulilian who was watching the show and go to the forest.

Connie lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Fulilian's eyes. She quietly used his shield to avoid the gaze that seemed to burn her, but...

"I say, normally at this time, shouldn't you ask me when I started watching?"

Before the two of them walked far, Fulilian's voice suddenly came from behind, causing Ash to stop unconsciously: "It still doesn't work? But... when did you appear?"

"At the beginning."

"Ha, ha?"

"Don't know? I mean, I saw it from beginning to end."

"——Then you should speak up quickly!" He finally couldn't help but turned around and glared at Fulilian behind him.

But Fulilian just tilted her head slightly, with the corners of her mouth raised as if silently asking: Is it really okay to talk to me like this now?

After he understood this, his momentum instantly declined, and he couldn't help but sigh: "............What do you want to do? Just say it."

"The exam is over, I want to eat something delicious, you have to treat me to a big meal, plus three servings of Mercury Pudding."

"...I understand, I'll treat..."

"Very good, then..." Fulilian stood up with satisfaction, patted her buttocks and looked at Connie again, solemnly reminding:

"Generally speaking, then showing your belly is a sign of submission, or inviting the master to interact, and you are like this... In the future, Ash will definitely treat him as an interesting pet."

"No, no, no, no, Connie is Fren's friend, I won't mess around!"

"....You mean you played with me? We grew up together, and you also took care of the belly of the girl's friend who traveled with us. Isn't this considered messing around?"

".......The prefix is ​​a bit long."

"Do you have anything to say to defend yourself? Or do you have any feelings?"

"Well...it's quite exciting to think about it?"

Some complicated relationships make Connie's identity a bit special, so he unconsciously touched his chin and tentatively expressed his thoughts.

This made Fulilian turn around and walk towards the forest without saying anything: "I'll tell Fren when we go back."

"Wait a minute! Don't complain for no reason, I was just joking! I'm not that kind of weird person!"

Fearing that his reputation would be lost, he quickly held Fulilian's shoulders and explained it in a good way...he used the extra three desserts and drinks to bribe her and make her keep it secret for him.
