Chapter 100 – Chapter 97 – Elf Who Wants to Get Pregnant (6)
A promise to let the demon king use the right to wish.
Instead of helping her get pregnant, she said she would.
“Ha, but…”
However, I had already decided to write a chapter for Silnia.
No matter how much Sylnia’s wish was adjusted in favor of her side, it was written for the benefit of others anyway.
She intended to write the remaining chapter entirely for herself.
“Why? Do you hate to keep your promise?”
Of course, there was no reason for the demon king to consider such a thing.
Because she came to receive the price of the promise.
After all, she did the dangerous thing of impregnating her champion, so she’ll want to make sure she gets what she pays for.
“You’re not going to break your promise, are you sure?”
Sharpie spoke softly with her smile on her face.
Besides, she carries a newborn baby on her back, and her tail wags nonstop.
It’s a pretty funny scene if you don’t know the context at all.
However, to Karine, it was as if robbers had attacked her with a knife.
In reality, it was close to a creditor who came to the debtor.
Carine, too, was implicitly aware of the reality, and she brought out the traditional words of debtors.
“What if I don’t keep my promise?”
Upon hearing the word about the broken promise, the demon king did not say anything.
He just blinks slowly and looks at Karine.
It wasn’t a big deal, but Karine even broke out in a cold sweat.
She opened her mouth again, barely suppressing her wild breathing.
“Yes, I can’t easily tell anyone that you helped me get pregnant anyway! Even if you try to blackmail me.”
“Yep.”
Sharpie listened, giving her a kind nod.
The response left Karine a little speechless.
But she continued on with her words.
“So, I’m going to pretend I didn’t have a promise with you, Demon King. Thank you for helping me get pregnant, but isn’t it too harsh to take the right to wish?”
“That nonsense?”
“Yes indeed! The right to wish is completely mine…”
“No.”
The demon king stretched out his legs without losing his composure and laughter.
As if this was her own room, she was in a comfortable position, and she soon spoke behind her back.
“Do you really think this body won’t tell our traders?”
“Yeah, yeah, of course I can’t say… ?”
The warrior’s words, which were quite confident at first, became smaller and smaller towards the end of the sentence.
Sharpie’s words similarly shrunk, changing similarly to her whispers.
“Really? How can you be so sure?”
“You explained… You don’t want that to go into other people’s ears.”
“Then, Karine, you shouldn’t let that story go into other people’s ears, right?”
The heart beats slowly but vigorously.
Carine nodded her head as she unconsciously held her babies to her chest.
Of course, if the story leaks out, she will lose herself too.
But isn’t the demon king more damaging?
“Still, you have to lose more than me. I have nothing to lose, but you have a lot, right?”
“Our warrior has nothing to lose? Really?”
Again, she hits back with a question.
As this type of conversation progresses, Karine’s thoughts keep getting dragged by the devil’s words.
The hero, who had often had conversations with political aristocrats, felt it subconsciously, but could not afford to look back on that feeling due to the strong psychological pressure.
“What will I lose?”
“If you truly felt you had nothing to lose, wouldn’t you have tried to tell this before your body? Then, is this an opportunity to cool off the evil demon king who is harassing the hero?”
The demon king’s words were more like explanations from friends or kind teachers than threats.
In reality, Carine’s head was quickly absorbing that explanation.
“What I will lose…”
Karine muttered nonchalantly, and she looked at her children now in her arms.
She’s given birth to these twins, so she’s got tons of things.
Hernan’s attention that he barely managed to get.
Even to see his children, he comes to his room every day.
Also, since she is recuperating now, she does not eat outside, but when she goes out, she will occupy the seat next to Hernan as a concubine.
And wishful thinking.
Almost the only chance to reverse one’s predicament.
You have more than you think.
It’s also full of things that can be easily taken away by others.
As Karine’s eyes quivered, Sharpie wrapped her tail around Karine’s shoulder and said.
“Come to think of it, isn’t it a little? But what if I or you expose the help that was between us?”
Then everyone knows that her own pregnancy was not the result of sex with Hernán.
A secret that Hernan tried to keep at all costs.
Hernan’s intention to package the birth of children as normal, even if it means being criticized by all the women, is completely ignored.
I was terrified and had goosebumps on my arms.
When that happens, it really is all over.
Perhaps all the right to wish would be confiscated, and Hernan might personally take the child with him, except when breastfeeding.
No, since she has a saint with a lot of milk, she won’t even give her a chance to breastfeed.
Besides, if the right to wish is taken away, cooperation with Silnia will be catastrophic.
Silnia, who was furious at not being able to use her wish ticket, would be willing to reveal the truth about the cookie incident that she was hiding even if she took some swear words from her.
If things go that way, really…
“Eh, Demon King! Okay, can we negotiate?”
Karine shouted like someone who had just woken up from sleep.
As if startled by the cry, the Sharpie raised and then lowered his eyebrows.
“Negotiation?”
“Huh! My, I will help you hard.”
Making the original promise invalid by threatening the demon king was out of the question.
However, it was still difficult for her to give up her right to wish.
If you give away the right to wish here, there will be no chance for something to turn around.
Either way, it’s like the end of a cliff.
So Karine desperately grabbed Sharpie’s arm and begged.
“What can I do? Can I play the role of a maid? I’m good at cooking, and I’m good at doing laundry and cleaning. I’ll clean your room every day, and I’ll cook your favorite dishes!”
Unlike the begging hero, the demon king didn’t say a word.
She just quietly listened to Carine’s words.
Of course, the more this happened, the more Karine became impatient.
“No, that’s right! You know I’m good with my hands, right? I’m putting together my pre-expressed milk and devising a tool to help with feeding the kids. If I make it, I’ll give it to you first.”
She went on to mention the baby bottle she had planned to gift to Hernán.
“I’ll make Ella new clothes too. There are a lot of fabrics, so I can make them all just by talking to you!”
Karine frantically leaned over to the demon lord.
Thanks to her, her head was about to be thrown behind her to the point that the child in her arms was endangered.
Seeing this, Sharpie gently supported her slanted baby, but she said nothing to the mother.
Instead, she winked at her twin and let the warrior take care of them.
Seeing that, Carine barely managed to get her children back together and wept.
“Please… Leave me a wish ticket.”
As tears began to form in the hero’s eyes little by little, the demon king paused for a moment and sighed.
“Under… Even though this side helped me so much, can’t I just give you one?”
Are you feeling a bit weak?
Carine sees that the sharpie might be able to take a step back from her, and she says more pitifully.
“Please. As you know, this is really hard earned. I’ll do everything else, so just write a wish…”
“But a warrior.”
The demon king cut off his words and smiled.
The curved eye area feels sharp.
Karine, involuntarily nervous, met her eyes with hers.
“Is there anyone other than this person who has decided to write the Hero’s wish ticket?”
“… What?”
The warrior froze as it was.
In contrast, the demon king poured out his words so quickly that the silence from earlier felt like a lie.
“There are two tickets for your wish this time, right? Then, just because this body uses one, it doesn’t mean that you can’t make a wish at all, but it’s too overreacting.”
“That, uh… Of course, if someone else uses mine…”
Sharpie stroked Carine’s cheek with her tail.
“You acted like a person who could never use a wish ticket again? Didn’t I just ask if it would be a waste of me to give you one? At that time, if you took it, you couldn’t make a wish at all.”
Carine felt fear.
But at the same time she quickly admitted to herself that she had made a mistake.
Now is not the time to idly fall into frustration, but now is the moment to make amends.
“That was because I lost my temper for a moment and misunderstood it. I understood it to mean that you take it all.”
“Hmm. But in that case, why don’t you first beg me to write one instead of taking both?”
Her breath chokes her throat.
I’ve never felt this way even when I was in the political world where all kinds of scheming was rampant in the capital.
Ah, back then, Hernán was always there to help.
Carine retorted, forcing herself to hold back the tears that were trying to squeeze out of her tear ducts.
“I… It’s because I’m not calm enough to make such a judgment. The more you come here and talk, the more you go crazy!”
Karine quickly grabbed her strands with a strategy to scare away this uninvited guest.
She clenched her teeth as she pushed her demon lord away.
“Stop getting out! I will sleep with my kids.”
“Aww! Against violence!”
Sharpie fell away from Karine’s side as she flinched at her exaggerated gestures.
Karine realized that even though her god-blood power was gone, she could still defeat this dream demon with brute strength, and tried to give strength to her arm.
However, she stopped moving at the words of the demon king that came out soon after.
“Forties? No. I have no reason to do that at all. Then a saint? Well, if the saintess needs a wish ticket, she just needs to ask Potty. She even lent her share for her forties and her life.”
“Stop it and get out!”
“Ah… Then there is only one woman left.”
Karine, trying to hide her expression somehow, met her eyes with the demon king.
In her all-red eyes, her own image, with her pale blue face, appeared in her mind.
“This is our cute elf Silnia.”
“Ugh…”
Karine finally felt the urge to kill.
Since the opponent is a demon tribe that is always the target of slaughter in human society, the desire came up more easily.
However, this place is isolated from human society.
It is a space where the rules of the Demon God rule anew.
Killing opponents is absolutely forbidden here, so no matter how much you want to kill someone, you can’t inflict more violence than that.
“It’s all demon lord, it’s your delusion, go away.”
That’s why the warrior had no choice but to ask the demon king to leave while biting down on her molars.
Perhaps impressed by her kind request, Sharpie robbed her of her seat and stood up.
“It’s late today, so I’ll stop. It’s the same for you and me, not feeling well right after having a baby.”
She should be glad that her worries went away on their own, but Karine felt her anxiety amplify.
“Are you going straight to your room?”
“You know the rules, right? A woman must sleep in her room, and a meal will be served the next day.”
The demon king winked at his one eye and supported the bottom of the baby on his back.
“So, of course, I will go to my room and sleep. By the way, Hernan is sleeping in the Potty room today.”
Are you saying you don’t intend to tell anyone about this right now?
The Sharpie nodded her head, as if reading her hero’s thoughts.
“Huh. Good night then!”
The demon king left the room.
Karine was relieved, but at the same time felt miserable.
“Huh…”
Thinking she probably won’t sleep today, she held her babies in her arms.
* * *
“Hey El, no Hernan.”
Looking at Silnia, who has been making frequent mistakes in her name lately, Hernán wiped her face with her warm water.
“Is there anything you want to ask of me?”
“Uh? Uh, how did you know?”
Silnia blushed her ears as she immersed herself in her warm water.
All the while she kept her eyes on her son playing with her in a large bowl of water.
Hernando opened her mouth to see the child without the use of her legs at all.
“Isn’t it only natural that the elf who would have been twitching her hands since a while ago and would have been humming a song in a good mood would just quietly talk?”
“Okay…”
Silnia sank her in the water up to her ears and spit out her air bubbles.
Hernan laughed at the elf’s actions, which he wouldn’t have even attempted, fearing that Potty would get water in her ears.
“Come on, tell me. There will be someone to wash after us, so we can’t stay here indefinitely.”
At those words, Silnia’s face floated out of the water again.
“Actually, I have something to confess.”
At those words, Hernán tensed her underwater muscles.
Of course, her face remained calm.
“Confession? I’m already looking forward to it.”
Hernán looked at Silnia, trembling at her smirk.
Lately, she’s been trying to quietly interrogate Silnia about Cookie, but surprisingly, she doesn’t reveal anything.
She couldn’t even hide that she was hiding something, but for Silnia’s straightforward personality, this was a big deal.
That’s why she was regretting the lack of progress in the Cookie case investigation, but she says that Silnia has something to confess with such a serious face.
As for Hernan, I can only expect a lot.
“So, um…”
Sylnia paused a bit more.
Hernan was not in a hurry and wrapped his arms around Silnia’s shoulder.
She murmured, leaning her head against Hernán’s chest.
“I think my pregnancy is harder than I thought.”
“… Okay?”
“No? I don’t know much about medicine, but I know that elves are less fertile than humans!”
Hernan scratched his cheek, thinking that her story went completely differently than expected.
“I think I know that too. But is that enough to confess?”
Thinking that Silnia might get angry, Ernan waited for her words.
But the elf hesitated and spared her words.
Eventually, after Hernan urged that time was running out, she opened her mouth.
“Right of Wish… Can’t we pray for a successful pregnancy with that?”
“Is there a right of wish?”
“Huh. What is it, I heard there’s a drug that helps you get pregnant? Is it to make the childbearing period come right away?”
“Where did you hear that?”
Silnia looked at the water in her bath and hid her expression.
“Bar, when adventuring outside? I think I heard it in a bar.”
“It’s not cheap enough to be talked about in bars.”
It is a very expensive medicine that only high-ranking nobles eat.
Even so, the effect comes and goes, so I don’t use it much.
Did the saintess or Karine tell you?
Or, since it can be used in the demon society, it may be what Sharpie said.
In any case, it was clear that Silnia had an affair with a drug that made it easier for her to conceive.
“Uh, anyway, can I try some of it? I want to get the right to wish soon and treat my child.”
“But you don’t have the right to wish right now.”
Hernán asked a question, counting the realm of wish he had now.
No matter how much I thought about it, there was no right of wish that Silnia could borrow.
At least it’s about a sharpie, but her right to wish will be saved in preparation for a painful pregnancy and difficult delivery that may occur in the future.
Contrary to Hernan’s concerns, Silnia spoke calmly.
“Karine. The hero has two wish tickets.”
The moment he heard her words, Hernán received a strong intuition.
“Carine?”
“Huh. He’ll probably lend you a wish ticket. It’s better to write like this than to write that, and that bitch is useless.”
Why did Karine give Silnia the right to wish?
Considering the relationship between the two, she had no reason to speak of such cooperation as Silnia assures her.
Did Carine do something, and gave Sylnia the right to wish to silence her?
Hernan guessed so and said.
“Good… Let’s talk to Karine for now.”
