The Contractor of the New Sister Devil

"Don't laugh so seriously! I really want to say it!"

The man named Ortiga "snorted" the annoyed Noye, looked at Miao and said:

"By the way-this young lady, is Wilbert's daughter?"

"——Thanks to Wilbert's effort to send people to the human world, how come those fools call people back."

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

...Why, why?

Naruse Mio was panicked for a while.In addition to Ramsay, who wants to draw Wilbert’s power from Mio, and Klaus, who hopes to make Mio the new demon king, there are people who originally thought Ortiga was similar to Mio and expected her to keep her original life. in.This surprised her-but the problem was not there.In order to avoid the commotion, most people would not know about Mio being invited to the Demon World.

Where did the news leak?Bladegen and Yuxi took immediate action and stood beside Mio one after another, separating her from Ortiga.

"—How did you know. Just heard that Noye said, do you have a chance to enter and leave the castle?"

When asked sharply by the blade, Ortiga scratched the back of his neck impatiently and replied:

"Don't be so fierce to the florist father, kid-don't worry, I didn't hear it."

"...Then how do you know?"

Ortigia squinted and replied:

"Yeah, you probably don't know what she looks like... You and Miss Yaxue really look alike."

"Yaxue... is it my mother?"

"Yes. Not only does it look alike, but the eye color is the same as hers."

Mio always thought that her adoptive parents were her biological parents. The time and memories she spent with them were so strong that she never thought about her biological mother much, only knew the name, and—

"...She died soon after giving birth to me, right?"

Ortiga nodded to the whispered Min.

"Yes, you already know this?"

"Well, Wan Liya—that girl who came to protect me told me my real life experience together."

"..." "..."

After listening to Mio's words, I already knew the fact that the blade was not a word from Yuxi; but that was different from the previous silent, it was the mood of worrying Mio.This made Mio thankful at the same time--

... the biological mother...

The parents so far are actually adoptive parents, and the biological father is still the devil——

After her adoptive parents were killed by Zokir and escaped the danger, Mio learned of these facts from many explanations of Valeria.At that time, Miao's questions naturally included her biological mother.

And she also learned that it was not just her father Wilbert who had passed away, but her mother died earlier-soon after giving birth to Mio.

"——But boss, how can you know how your Royal Highness Yaxue looks?"

Jeste, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

"Although His Royal Highness Yaxue has the blood of the Demon race, I heard that she grew up in the human world and has a strong human blood. Master Miao will look the same as humans, so it is her inheritance. His Highness Yaxue is getting to know His Majesty Wilbert Later, I fell in love with him, became pregnant with Master Miao, and later settled in this world."

but--

"It is said that His Majesty Wilbert is a pure high-ranking demon, and the identity of His Majesty Yaxue, who has a thin blood line and grew up in the human world, is too far away. Many people strongly oppose their marriage. In order not to give radicals or conservatives As an excuse to find the ballast, she had to hide her in the lone tower of the castle. Not only was there no portrait, but there was no photo left. Only a few people in the city knew what she looked like—then, how did you know her look? ?"

"—Because she lives that kind of life."

Regarding Jeste’s question, Ortiga put down his tone--

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

And said to the sky as if looking into the distance:

"She is really a good girl... She is not free and never complains. She always smiles brighter than the flowers I take care of; even if she is not blessed by others, as long as she can be with Wilbert and stay with him Beside, pregnant with his child--that is, you, I'm satisfied."

"......This way."

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

Isn't it of course?For so many years, adoptive parents have kept the secret that they are not related to each other. It is normal for adoptive parents to think that adoptive parents are closer than their biological parents who have never met.

——And Mio himself thinks that there is nothing wrong with it.

Because there is no need to change your mind.As the devil’s biological father adopted his power to Mio before his death, Mio would become the target of competition, leading to the tragic death of his adoptive parents. The person who directly took away Mio’s stable daily life was Zokir, yes, but Wilbay Te also has indirect responsibility, and can't complain to him who has passed away.The matter between him and his wife really made Miao feel nothing.Revenge for the adoptive parents-before I met Tojo Rage, that was everything about Naruse Mio. Besides, now I come to the Demon World to solve the power of Wilbert in Mio's body, so even after hearing the story of the birth mother, there is no Arouse any special feelings, but she still--

"...Thank you for telling my mother."

"Although she doesn't know what she looks like, does it make you happy to know that she looks a lot like her mother?"

Ortiga’s question made Miao, who lowered her head slightly, said with a bitter smile:

"I don't know whether Gao is happy or not... After all, for this biological mother, I don't know anything except the name-at least, it's a good thing to know more."

After hearing Mio's thoughts, Ortiga replied in a low voice, "That's it." At this time--

"That, Mr. Ortiga... Please keep the matter of Mio-sama secret."

Noye interrupted after watching the end of the dialogue:

"If people know that things are spreading from your side, the incident that I brought Mio-sama and them to this store will be exposed. From my standpoint, it will definitely die ugly."

Ortiga hummed after hearing it——

"Don't bear this kind of unnecessary heart, which way to cool down-staying any longer will prevent me from doing business."

Then he turned around as if he had finished the conversation, and disappeared in the shop.

Now-after Noye led the crowd around the town.

"—Okay, in the end, you have to have a cup of tea in this shop to be complete."

She returned to Yadbie Square again and came to a cafe.There is an open-air observatory with a panoramic view of the plaza, and it is a famous shop that is popular with men, women and children, and crowded with customers.When the swordsmen followed Noyer in line at the counter, Jeste scanned the store.

"What's the matter, Just?"

"...Mr. Bladegen, please use it slowly, I'll just wait outside."

After paying a respect to the blade, Jeste turned and left the cafe.

Then she walked to the dark alley behind the shop.
