The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

On the way down White Twilight to my parents' garden, I saw Senior Lily and Sham in the garden.

He sat side by side on the bench in the garden on the south side, seemed to be in the sun, but stood up surprised to see the eagle descend.

Is it coming to visit?

A maid apprentice girl, previously known as Riche, rushes through the front door with momentum.

I ran all the way within the eagle feather range and was amazed at the feathers I was about to bump into, "CAR!," he shouted and butted.

I got off the restraint in a hurry and stepped down to the ground.

"Carol Ha!?

"Damn, I didn't wake up this morning... because it's dangerous..."

said as the girl was about to cry.

It was true what Tyreto was saying.

I ran out of nowhere, through the doors of the open doors, straight up to the second floor.

Open the door to Carol's room so she can break it.

"Carol!"

Shouting his name, he looks at the bed.

There was Carol in sick clothes.

He keeps his upper body in a big cushion, looks at this one and smiles.

Instead of being in a coma, I was well awake.

"- Oh, ha... what the hell"

I mean, he's alive, isn't he?

I assumed the worst.

It's okay.

What the hell, you're exaggerating.

"Lord"

The maid chief standing beside me stopped by me.

"When I heard the sound of your Lord coming, I woke up. Please, you two stay together."

The maid chief, when he said so and put his hand on my shoulder for a moment, immediately left the room.

I walked to the round chair next to the bed and sat down.

"Oh boy -"

"Yuri"

"Damn, you're exaggerating. Let's do Tyreto's."

"Yuri"

Carol shook something in her arms, smiling proudly with her skinny blue and white face.

Something like a wrap wrapped in a cloth, supported on my stomach, from which I see something with a skin tone.

"What the hell..."

"What do you think? I did it."

When I looked at my belly, where it was swollen, it was gone and back to normal.

"Did you give birth? Awesome. Well done."

Really? Did you give birth?

"Aren't you happy...?

Carol looked anxious.

"No, I'm glad. I'd be happier if you were alive."

Oh, is it bad that I thought you were dead?

"Tileto comes and tells me to go back because you're dying. She looked fine and relieved..."

Well, if you were able to give birth safely, you're just on your way to recovery already.

The child seems to be asleep.

It would be fine if you were born alive.

"... so the battle... won?

"Of course I won. A great victory. We're supposed to be in pursuit by now."

When I make that report, Carol...

"Ah......"

And he shrugged, weakened, as the load on his shoulder had fallen.

Originally deposited in a large cushion, the body seemed to sink further.

"Right...... good. Good......"

The thread I was straining broke off, and it was a way to lose power like it would collapse.

"Are you so relieved? Well, that's a relief anyway."

"Hey, I'm a girl. The weight is light... but it seems to be all right in the midwife's story..."

Carol looked at the baby, placed over her belly, with her mother's eyes, rather than being able to hold her.

Really?

Well, I wish I was healthy.

"My milk may be mixed with poison, so I can't give it to you. But I have a nanny..."

"Right. Well, I think it's gonna be okay."

If you want to be ready, you can use as many nannies as you want.

"Now this country will stabilize..."

"Nothing, if you get better, we'll have a crowning ceremony and you'll be queen."

"Unfortunately, I can't do that..."

"Why not? Be weak."

When I say that, Carol...

"Ha-ha-ha..."

and exhaled like a long, leaking breath.

It was such a deep exhalation that my soul was about to come out of my mouth.

"Hey, you okay?

Unexpectedly pull over and pull over nearby.

"Good... I did my job..."

What?

"I didn't accomplish it. We're going to have a crowning ceremony and we're going to be queens."

"That's... I'm going to tickle this kid..."

What? What?

When I saw it, Carol looked at me a little bit in the wrong direction.

Looks like you're looking at me, not at me.

I keep looking at the subtle deviations.

What, dude?

"Hey, take care! What's the matter!

I got up from my chair unexpectedly and held Carol's shoulder tightly.

I loosened my powers reflexively.

Because it was a surprisingly thin shoulder, like grabbing even the back of a luxurious chair.

"Listen..."

Carol spoke a thin voice.

It was a terrible billion-dollar voice.

"What's wrong, does it hurt anywhere?

"... don't blame Lily and Sham for doing this... I asked you not to..."

Talking hard about something.

I don't like it.

It's like saying that finishing this is the last job of your life.

It's like I'm finally refusing to fall into deep sleep, grabbing a thin thread.

"Stop talking. I'll ask you later..."

When I said that, Carol attached the hand that wasn't supporting the baby to my hand grabbing my shoulder.

It was like making sure I was where I was.

"Tam... listen... I need another favor..."

The thin voice had a truthful sound.

"... what? I'll make everything happen."

Any hope.

"Myalo and all the others, come with me one day... and send me away..."

... what?

What are you talking about?

You're my wife.

Don't recommend cheating.

What kind of favor is that?

"That's okay... let me leave you..."

I didn't know what that meant.

"I thought Myalo would be taken... oh, I'm sorry. Sorry..............."

Finally, I have begun to say things that are unintelligible and repentant.

Myalo's letter......?

"Until you, if you follow me, I will... don't be afraid..."

I learned a strange feeling as Carol and I lay hands on each other up close.

Carol's going somewhere.

When the thinly stretched line broke like a spider's yarn, Carol felt like she was going somewhere she'd never see her again.

"Whoa! Don't go -!"

I shook my shoulder into my hand and shook it small.

"Ha-ha."

So, Carol breathed oddly hard twice.

It was a powerful exhalation that could be heard to the point of breathing, unlike the breath that exhaled until then.

Your eyes are suddenly focused and you look straight at me.

"Come on... can you kiss me...?

"Ah."

I put my face close and mouthed Carol's lips.

The sparkling lip without water leaves.

Carol let go of her layered hands and stroked my cheek.

"... I'm sorry I slapped you on the cheek then"

For a moment, I didn't know what it was about.

When you were at the entrance ceremony?

"Idiot, when the fuck are you talking about..."

"Ha... Oh, it's good to meet you..."

Carol laughed lightly before losing focus on her eyes again.

My eyes were close, so I could clearly see my pupils open.

"Manju..."

That said, Carol closed her eyes and dropped her head like she'd let go of the doll's thread.

"Hey - Whoa!

Hold Carol's neck with your fingers and check for pulses.

There was no pulse whatsoever.

Put your hands on your mouth and nose, but don't feel your breath.

"Bullshit!! Let them!!

I put the baby, who cried out in surprise at the anger, on the table for now, and I took the cushion Carol had kept her back and laid her down on her back.

I only made him tear his clothes open and tried to start a heart massage.

But what popped into my eyes at that time was a belly-bound bandage.

Oh.

I felt something connected in my head.

Caesarean section?

Shit, dude. Always this guy.

"Damn -!"

I don't have time to think.

"Hey! Somebody come!!!

I need to move my heart first.

I put my hands on Carol's chest and started a heart massage.

- An hour later.

"... Enough"

I stopped breathing the next time.

The maid length, who was doing a heart massage, also stopped her hand.

No more attempts, no more sense.

I gently put my hand on Carol's skinny cheek.

"Good luck... rest well..."

When I spoke while I knew it didn't make sense, while I was once Carol, voidness filled my mind.

What did I fight for...

"I asked for the rest"

When I said that with no one, I walked away.

"Yuri, uh..."

Out in the hallway, a girl showed me a baby in her hand.

A monkey-like baby with blonde hair looks at this one with crushed eyes.

I wasn't amazingly attached myself.

"Ah."

As I passed by avoiding the girl, I went down the stairs and went outside.

It's already evening outside, and the night book is about to fall.

Senior Lily, who was waiting outside, spoke to me.

"... Yuri, you know, the..."

―――

I didn't feel like responding.

I thought there would be anger at Carol for ripping his belly off, but nothing came of it.

Maybe if it hadn't been for that, I wouldn't have been able to talk to Carol today.

I suppose he secretly asked for a surgical ceremony, thinking I couldn't hear him, and that both mother and child would die.

But I didn't even feel like returning my thanks and thanks.

"Yuri, come on..."

Pass next to Senior Lily.

I was turning my legs naturally toward my parents' graves, like a beast guided by homecoming instincts.

Walk the moonlighted night lane and enter the woods.

Anyway, I wanted to be alone.

But from behind, there was a figure of someone who would follow the trail all the time.

When I reached the top of the hill without a word of conversation, there was my buried parents' grave.

I sit back at the base of the tree.

Then someone who was following me from behind sat at the root of the tree right next to me.

- Go home.

I said to Sham.

I wanted to be alone.

"Because it's my family"

Sham gives an unintelligible response.

"So what?"

"I'm sitting next to you because I'm family"

Go home, I tried to say it again, but it stopped at my throat.

Because Sham's words felt some determination, and I didn't think he was going home as he was told.

I wasn't in the mood to ask questions, I wasn't in the mood to beat him up or let him go home.

I was sitting at the roots of a tree and looking at a tomb lit by moonlight against a starry sky.

Beyond that, through the window of the private house, there was a thin light of fire burning all over the house, as if nothing had happened.

It was quiet.

Occasionally, I hear a fuzzy voice.

Around here, beasts that do harm to humans are hunted.

Tens of thousands of wrecks will still be thrown down on the battlefield in Sibyak.

Where will Carol's soul be now?

Sham didn't hang around, didn't give a single voice, just sat next to me.

I kept looking at the grave.

Sham, next to it, just sat me down the whole time.
