"There's no need to apologize, it's great if you can come along." After speaking, Mu Hantian put his hands on Youxi's head.

Mu Hantian's gentle smile and concern moved Youxi so much that he held his hand—"Hantian—…"

"Wait for me."

As soon as Mio saw Youxi approaching Mu Hantian and brought her face closer, she immediately stopped her.

"Please... are you doing any kissing scenes on the main road?"

"Tsk."

"Tsk, you're tall! Do you think you have a chance!"

Mio grabbed Mu Hantian's hand and pulled Yuxi away.

"Everyone, please look over here~!"

Noye, who was watching all this, raised his hand and said, "That flower shop is very famous in the city of Verda, and many flowers and plants in the city come from here."

She flicked her raised hand down, pointing directly at the shop on the roadside ahead.

"Is that so - it turns out that the royal palace will also use this kind of neighborhood flower shop."

"That's right... because, the boss and His Majesty Wilbert seem to be old friends."

After hearing Mio's thoughts, Noye, who was sure the topic had been successfully changed, nodded in relief.

At this time-

"Huh? Isn't this Noye...Why, slipped out of the city to buy snacks again?"

A burly man wearing an apron walked out of the shop.

These words seemed to arouse Noye's dissatisfaction, and he pursed his lips sullenly and said, "That's not true, today I brought newcomers out to get familiar with the environment!"

"That's it, these few are indeed very good-looking... Unexpectedly, even you have started to bring in newcomers. It seems that the problem of insufficient manpower in the city is really serious." The male demon looked at Mu Hantian said several times.

"Boss, why are you so rude... Be careful, I will sue the person in charge of the purchase and kick you off the cooperation list! If you want to apologize, it is now, Mr. Ortega!"

"Ha...how do you have that kind of power?" The male demon named Ortiga smacked his lips.

"Don't be so serious about laughing! I'm really going to say it!"

After Ortiga "hummed" to the annoyed Noye, he looked at Mio and said, "By the way—this lady is Wilbert's daughter, right?"

"Thanks to Wilbert who spent so much effort sending him to the human world, why are those fools calling him back?"

Ortiga's words caused a breathless tension, and the surrounding atmosphere froze instantly.

For, why?Mio panicked for a moment.

In addition to Ramsas who wanted to draw Wilbert's power from Mio, and Klaus who wanted to make Mio the new Demon King, there were people like Ortega who thought like Mio and wanted her to keep her old life. exist.

That surprised her—but that wasn't the problem.In order to avoid commotion, most people would not know that Mio was invited to the Demon World.

Where did the news leak from?Mu Hantian and Youxi immediately took action, standing next to Mio one after the other, separating her from Ortiga.

"How do you know? I just heard from Noye that you are the one who has the opportunity to enter and leave the castle?"

Asked by Youxi's sharp eyes, Ortiga scratched the back of his neck impatiently and replied, "Don't be so cruel to the flower shop father, kid—don't worry, I didn't hear it."

"Then how do you know?"

Ortega narrowed her eyes and answered Mio, "That's right, you probably don't know what she looks like... You and Ms. Ya Xue really look alike."

"Ya Xue...means my mother?"

"Yeah. Not only do they look alike, but the color of their eyes is also the same as hers."

Mio always thought her adoptive parents were her real parents, and the time and memories she spent with them were too strong, so she never thought much about her real mother, only knowing her name, and——

"Did she die shortly after giving birth to me?"

Ortega nodded to Mio who said so in a low voice. "Yes, you already know that?"

"Well, Maria—that's what the girl who came to protect me told me about my real background."

"But boss, how do you know His Royal Highness Yaxue's appearance so well?"

Zest, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"Although Ya Xue-dono has the blood of demons, I heard that she grew up in the human world, and her human blood is strong; Mio-sama's appearance is similar to that of humans, it must be her inheritance. Ya Xue-ya is getting to know His Majesty Wilbert Later, she fell in love with him, became pregnant with Mio-sama, and settled down in this world."

"It is said that His Majesty Wilbert is a pure high-level demon, and his identity is too different from His Majesty Yaxue, who has a thin blood of the demons and grew up in the human world. Many people strongly oppose their marriage. In order not to disturb the radicals or conservatives To make excuses for trouble, she had to live in seclusion in the lonely tower of the castle. Not only did she not have any portraits, she didn’t even leave a single photo. Only a very few people in the city knew what she looked like—then, how did you know what she looked like? ?”

"Because that's the kind of life she lives."

Regarding Zester's question, Ortiga lowered his tone.

"Although Wilbert spends a lot of time with her every day, her life in the tower is no different from house arrest. For her, the flowers sent from our shop are probably the only fun One of them... So she asked me through Wilbert to teach her how to cultivate or care for beautiful flowers, and I went there often after that."

And she said to the sky as if looking into the distance: "She is really a good girl... Life is not free and she never complains, she always smiles brighter than the flowers I take care of carefully; even if she is not blessed by others, as long as she can be with you Willber is content to be with him, to be by his side, to be pregnant with his child, which is you."

"That's it."

Naruse Mio still doesn't feel that she is the daughter of the Demon King, so she doesn't know how to react when she is welcomed by servants and soldiers in the city.

Isn't it natural?For so many years, adoptive parents have kept the secret that they are not related by blood. It is normal to think that adoptive parents are closer than biological parents who have never met.
