Chapter 128 – Chapter 122 – Confinement (1)

Hernán saw a life guide that would not fade or wear out no matter how much time passed.
The guide was inscribed with new rules, as if he would never let himself be forgotten.

[Hernan is prohibited from sleeping alone in the lowermost cell. If Hernán ignores this and goes to sleep in a solitary cell, food will be stopped the next day.]

“Also… Yesterday, Ernan slept alone in Silnia’s room, so no meal was served.”

Sharpie looked at the phrase and nodded her head.

Hernán thought that if that were the case, it wouldn’t make sense for him to give notice of this rule in the first place and stop eating.
However, since grasping the new rules first, he read the following.

“However, an adult woman continues to provide her meals even when sleeping alone in a solitary cell. And even if Hernán and the woman sleep together in solitary confinement, meals are still paid.”

“Sir, are you going to sleep with Silnia?”

When Potty heard the contents, he slightly frowned.
Hernán didn’t answer, but read the rules that were being added.

“If a woman uses a solitary cell and Hernan sleeps alone in an empty room, she also stops providing her food.”

Having finished reading the additions to the Rules of Life, he placed his handbook on his table.

“No matter what, I’m talking about sleeping with women.”

This time Karine nodded her head without saying anything.
And there was no woman who could respond to Hernan’s words.

One was in solitary confinement, and the other was bedridden with injuries.

“I’ll go see Silnia.”

Ernan slowly rose from his seat.
Seeing this, Potty hurriedly grabbed his hand.

“L! Your back hurts too, don’t overdo it! Tea, I’d rather go!”

“Only I can open that solitary cell.”

Hernan fixed the tightly wrapped belly band around the waist where he felt pain.
The belly band that Shapi and Carine made by combining various materials according to the saintess’ instructions was on the side of reducing the burden on the waist considerably.

“And what if Forty you go and buy something?”

“Eww…”

Forty twitched his ears for a moment.
He must have imagined being hit by Silnia.

For her, who had already had a similar experience with Karine, it would be terrifying for her to have a similar situation.

However, Potty spoke in a surprisingly courageous voice.

“Hey, can’t you open it with a key? And Sylnia won’t hit anyone anymore. If so, really…”

“Take this, Hernan!”

Sharpie interrupted Potty and placed a basket of food in Hernan’s hand.
Since today’s meal service had been suspended since morning, the food that Karine and Hernan had made hastily in the morning was included.

“Even the demon god is too hasty. If possible, notify the rules first and stop eating. Still, it’s a relief that there are a lot of food materials downstairs, right?”

The Demon King spoke lively and held Potty’s hand with his tail.
It seemed to mean that he was sorry for interrupting.

“We will be feeding Marina and the children. Come on!”

Hernán listened to it silently.
And she looked where the kids were for a while.

Silnia’s son, Ethan, was still sobbing.
At least Ella seemed to be holding back her tears as she worked hard to soothe her and put each of her sweets into her mouth.

And Lenny was just staring at her table with her somber eyes.

The moment I thought it would be a difficult sight to look at further, I heard Sharpie’s voice again.

“Hernan.”

Eyes with a calm atmosphere that don’t go well with heart eyes.

“Sylnia must be starving. I’m full-term, shouldn’t I hurry up and take care of it?”

After looking at those red eyes for a moment, he turned around and started off.

“I’ll take care of the kids.”

As Hernan walked down the aisle, he felt the situation was bizarre.

The situation where the demon king that the warrior party came to kill is now the most reliable person.

The party of warriors was on the verge of collapse due to a terrible internal conflict, and a symbolic incident about that state occurred just a few days ago.

It is a completely different development from the story of the warrior party that I have been hearing and growing up since I was young.
Originally, isn’t it standard for a warrior’s party to kill the demon king and live happily while everyone achieves their dreams?

However, the party of warriors here is living according to the rules set by the demon god, locked up with the demon king.
Even though the demon god didn’t specifically order it, they were gradually leaving each other with severe wounds.

Lost in thought, he entered Carine’s special room before he knew it.
Just before going down to where Silnia was, Hernan stopped for a moment.

After a while, the door he opened was not a door going down, but a door going up.
Climbing the stairs with a slight back pain, I soon reached a beautiful garden.

Perhaps it was because no one had visited the place in the past few days, the horrors of that time remained.
He followed the blackened bloodstain across the field of flowers.

“There is no blood.”

Hernan came to the middle of the garden.
The last time he came, he was stained everywhere with Marina’s blood.

But now it was clean.
As if nothing had happened, only the smooth stone flagstones were shining in the sunlight.

Did Sharpie and Karine, who came to help Marina, clean up after themselves?
However, to say that, the bloodstains from the entrance to the center are still the same.

And this one is also scattered around just as it was then thrown away.

“After…”

Hernán picked up a crutch that had fallen among the flowers.
The crutch, which Silnia often carried, fell out of everyone’s attention when she was confined by her owner.

Thanks to that, I had been smelling the flowers in the warm sunlight for several days, so the bloody appearance from a few days ago had disappeared.
Rather, it seemed to be waiting for the original role, that is, the role of assisting a sore leg.

After slamming his crutches on the floor a few times, he held onto his crutches like a cane with his empty hands.
As Karine already used after being injured by Silnia, Ernan herself was also injured by Silnia, so it seemed okay to use her crutches.

Now it’s time to go back to the owner of this thing.
Hernán began to slowly descend, carving the sensation of hard wood into his hands.

* * *

After opening the cell with her key and entering, Silnia rose from the sofa.
When she saw Hernan enter on her crutches, she closed her eyes.

“… How is your back?”

“Sylnia, you should never punish the child if he does something wrong later.”

Hernán set her crutches against the wall and spread her food out on the table.

A simple sandwich and water with fruit juice.
There was a lot of meat in the sandwich, so Silnia deserves to like it.

“Lunch was also made by Karine and I. I’ll wait for you until you’re done, so go ahead and eat.”

“Let me go.”

He’s calmer than before, but he still doesn’t give up and asks to be let out.

Hernán sighed and brought her sandwich directly in front of Silnia.
Silnia said with her head bowed.

“Isn’t Ethan looking for me? Please let me out I will be quiet.”

“Eat first.”

She handed out food to Hernán himself, but he just stayed still.

“You can’t keep a pregnant woman in her full term here. Are you sure you want your child to be born here?”

“When the due date approaches, I will send it to your room.”

It would be good to upload it after about 2 weeks.
She had already explained that to the other women in the morning.

Silnia also raised her head at the sudden good news.

“Really?”

“Okay.”

“Thank you!”

Silnia took her sandwich and put it beside her and reached out her hand to Hernán.
She tried to hug him, making a sound of her emotions.

“After I go out and have a child, I make a wish and practice walking with my child right away…”

“Sylnia.”

Hernán shook her hand and picked up the sandwich lying on her couch.
He held it in her hand and said coldly.

“You’ll come down here after you give birth and take a break.”

Silence fell in the solitary cell.
It felt more dry as the stillness flowed into the already somewhat desolate space.

After a while Silnia asked, nervously twisting her hair.

“Really?”

“Okay.”

“Fuck why!”

The elf pushed away the sandwich Hernán had been pushing.
Of course, since it was a sandwich, the bread disintegrated in the air.

When the sandwiches that were originally one were scattered, Hernán let out a light sigh.

“It’s fortunate that it’s an easy dish to make.”

“Hey!”

Silnia, ignoring Hernán’s murmurs, let out her furious roar.

“I wish I was stuck here! How could you do this to me?”

Hernán felt her eyes twitch, and she continued to listen to Silnia.

“It’s because I really love you and my son… That bastard Karine killed forty-and-a-half of them just out of jealousy and got along without any problems!”

“Then treat you like Karine too?”

Sylnia’s mouth was closed.

“You really think Karine didn’t pay anything? And do you think I’ll lock you up simply because you’re wrong?”

Hernán watched Silnia wagging her hair, clenched her fist, and repeated her piggy.

“When Lenny talks about you, she freaks out. Did you come back?”

“Ah…”

Silnia, who showed her angry feelings without filtering, opened her mouth blankly when the topic of Lenny came up.

“Until the kid thinks you’re okay. No, you shouldn’t be in the same environment as a child, at least until you calm down.”

Hernán continued his words while sweeping up the food scattered on the floor.

“I’ll do whatever I can to reconcile with him after he’s calmed down a bit, so stay still here in the meantime.”

Silnia looked at Hernan with her blank eyes.
And soon tears welled up in her eyes.

“Even Ethan… Can’t we let our son stay with us?”

“You want to keep your child with you?”

“I don’t mean that…”

“You need to get away from the kid for a while and cool off.”

It wasn’t much of a pleasure to have Silnia, whose feelings were fluctuating, with her now-her child.
She sees the kid and she may rationalize her self behavior again and again.

“Huh… Sorry. Because I was wrong…”

Hernán didn’t listen to her to the end and took her crutches.

“I’ll bring you food again, so wait.”

“L! Hey, Hernan!”

Silnia hugged Hernán’s back as he opened the door with her key again.

“I really wanted to fix my son! I had to stop the saintess immediately before she did anything!”

“You still don’t understand?”

Hernán opened the door, taking Silnia’s hand away.

“You did it first before anyone else did it. Whatever the saintess’ intentions are, I can’t defend you right now!”

“But…”

“You should have at least consulted me. No matter how much it is about my son, you can’t turn your eyes and beat me like you’re going to kill my little brother’s mother.”

Silnia cried silently as she saw Hernán standing outside her door.
Looking at her like that, Hernán gritted his teeth.

“Get out of the door now. I’m going to close it.”

But Silnia continued to stand at her door, looking at Hernan with her teary eyes.
Hernán eventually snapped her crutches menacingly to the floor in front of her.

Only then did the elf startle and backed away.

When she backed away, she promptly shut the door and put her key in.

“Hernan!”

Silnia was heard knocking on her door.

“Sorry! I’m sorry please…”

After turning the key and taking it out, Hernan turned around.
He left behind Silnia’s entreaties and entreaties, and headed to her kitchen.
