Chapter 158 – Chapter 152 – Until the New Queen Comes (4)

The nursery after lunch and quite a while.
It’s hard to know the exact time because the sun isn’t visible here, but I think it’s roughly halfway between lunch and dinner.

Then it’s time for the kids to find snacks.

“Mom. My cookie.”

“Me too.”

The silver-haired twin brother and sister approached Karine.
Her brother and sister, her ever-present, looked up at her own mother with her eyes full of anticipation.

Carine stroked the boys’ heads, and she called the others.

“Ella!”

As Carine called, grabbing her basket of her cookies, Ella turned her head towards Carine.
Before long, the child let her black hair fly and smiled brightly.

“Huh!”

Just call Ella and she will bring all her other children.
To be honest, I can’t help but have good feelings for the demon king, but I like that kid quite a bit.

He follows adults well and is mature enough for his age.
Besides, she cares for her half-brothers very much.

I can’t help but like it from the position of suffering from parenting.

“It’s one per person. Don’t take away the person next to you.”

Carine lined her children up and handed out colorfully baked cookies.

After a while, when Ella’s turn arrived at the very end, Carine took out the chocolate cookies left on the bottom of her basket.

Cookies that Potty’s children shouldn’t eat.
And the cookies that Sharpie’s kids really like.

Carine passed the snack she prepared for Ella to her child.

“Doesn’t Karine’s mother eat?”

Ella didn’t eat it right away.
She instead split her cookie in half and handed it to Karine.

“Eat together because it’s delicious!”

The sweet scent of chocolate that oozes out.
It is an exotic and enchanting smell that has never been smelled in the kingdom.

“I don’t like chocolate…”

And the scent tended to make Carine feel down.
Of course, it wasn’t as outrageous as her mint, but anyway, chocolate wasn’t a food that gave Karine a very fond memory.

“Then eat here.”

Sharpie’s daughter didn’t give up and took off the unchocolate part of her.

“Really, really delicious!”

I don’t think I’ll ever give up if this side doesn’t accept it.

“… Okay.”

Eventually Karine took it and put it in her mouth, and the child backed away with a lively laugh.
Karine walked over to her twin and watched Ella talk to her, munching on her cookies.

“It is delicious.”

“Okay?”

At the same time as the door burst open, Sharpie’s voice hit Carine’s back.

“I’ll bake one for you later.”

“I was surprised…”

The hero swallowed the cookie that was hanging in his throat with difficulty.

“Demon King, just eat what comes out during your meal. Anyway, I slept with Hernan yesterday, so your favorite things will come out throughout the day.”

“Don’t do that!”

The Demon King sat down in front of Karine with a friendly attitude.
Around her, her children approached one by one.

Sharpie greeted them one by one and opened her mouth again.

“This body wants to eat what Karine cooks for me.”

“Why do I have to eat what I made?”

Karine felt that this damn cookie would disturb her every time she tried.

“I’m still busy feeding the kids.”

“Hmm, if you don’t feel like it, bake it later when you want to bake it.”

I expected it to get tangled up a bit more, but surprisingly, Sharpie gave up quickly.
She laughed and played pranks on the children who approached her, especially Carine’s children.

The warrior who looked at it blankly opened his mouth after a while.

“What about Hernan? You two went out together.”

The Demon King and Hernán were away for a while to cast a healing spell on Marina’s body.
But now it’s only a Sharpie that has returned.

He wondered if he had stopped by the bathroom, but even now, after quite a while, only the demon king and himself were in the room.

“You, who actually used the magic, are coming back, why isn’t Hernan coming?”

“Well?”

The demon king shrugged his shoulders.

“I heard you have something to discuss with the saintess? Maybe it’s because of Sylnia?”

“Sylnia? Is it because of soothing Lenny?”

In fact, it is because of Lenny that the elf, who had been agreed to be released from confinement, is still in the room.

If Marina, the child’s mother, helps her, it will be easier for her child to accept Silnia again, so she may be discussing her countermeasures with Hernán.

However, the Demon King brought out another reason.

“No. It’s probably because of Silnia’s pregnancy.”

“Pregnancy? Why are you discussing that with the saintess?”

Even though Marina is a medical professional, shouldn’t her pregnancy itself require further discussion with her party?

As she thought about her pregnancy, Karine felt that her lower abdomen was aching.
Keeping her expression normal, she ignored it as best she could.

Sharpie didn’t even notice the change in Carrie’s expression, so she continued the conversation without any reaction.

“Since Silnia is an elf, you know that getting pregnant isn’t easy for her, right?”

“Know. Despite her monstrous health, her pregnancy did not go well.”

“Maybe it’s because of the long pregnancy cycle? Health and fertility are not necessarily proportional.”

Sharpie stroked her lower belly, where women had once tattooed their wombs.
And she had a very serious smile on her face.

“To make our elf-sama queen, we have to impregnate her before anyone else. For that, Hernan will need help.”

Karine realized what the Demon King was guessing.

“A fertility drug?”

“Huh. Ovulation triggers.”

The demon king smiled even thicker and nodded his head.

“But there was a warning to use it carefully. As Hernán, he would be reluctant to use it as easily.”

“So she went to question the saintess, a medical expert?”

Karine continued her speech, hugging her twin, who had now approached her.

“You get the healing magic for this body as a bonus!”

The smile on Sharpie’s lips turned into a pleasant big smile.

“Thanks to that, the marina room became as hot as a sauna!”

Healing magic is magic that speeds up the regeneration of the body.
Because it activates the activity itself inside the body, the body temperature naturally rises.

Marina would even have healing magic all over her body, so she would be radiating heat all over.

Then it will be hot and you will sweat a lot.
Her clothes would stick to her and make her feel bad.

The two of them, taking off their cumbersome everyday clothes, might not be able to overcome the heat rising from their bodies and slowly approach each other.

“Hmm… Carine? Why are you suddenly silent?”

It’s not like you’ll get better right away, so it must be difficult for Marina to have sex.
Still, only the parties concerned would know what the two would do in the heat.

And she was very sorry that she was not among those involved.
If she and Hernán had been in a hot state alone…

“Wow!”

“Kyaaak!”

Carine was startled to see Ella suddenly appearing in front of her eyes.
The child giggled and went to her bed and her mother’s arms.

“Are you good at it, my daughter?”

“Fun!”

Sharpie turned her head to Karine, who still had a dazed face on her.

“What was on your mind, did you get lost in the middle of the conversation?”

She is delusional in front of the demon king and no one else.
Karine felt that she herself did not believe it, and she tried to gloss over it.

“Bye, it’s nothing. Whatever you say, keep going…”

“Your face is red, and your breathing is rough.”

Sharpie cut off Karine, wagging her tail.

“Her eyes widened, and she keeps wiggling her ass?”

Karine clenched her fists as she watched the demon lord stripping naked with just her gaze.

“So what are you saying?”

“Are you excited?”

“It is very beneficial to say such things in front of the children…”

“Your skirt is wet! Even the floor?”

Karine stood still in a dazed state for a while.
But when she realized what she meant by wet, she freaked out and bent over.

“Oh no! This is so, while cooking in the kitchen…”

Karine hurriedly groped her skirt between her legs.

“Uh?”

Even though she runs her fingers through her skirt, she doesn’t feel any dampness.

Rather, she just felt her underwear getting slightly damp.

“Did you have a dirty imagination?”

The demon king covered his mouth with his tail as if he was having fun and giggled.
Only then did the warrior redden his face with anger.

“Dream year…”

“Shh! You can’t use harsh words in front of the kids!”

A lot of sparkling eyes.
Not a few children were watching the conversations of the adults here.

The hero trembled with only his fists clenched, then opened his mouth with a calm face.

“You be careful too.”

The children obviously wouldn’t understand what I was talking about, and the demon king brought out obscene words first.
However, the hero shoved the curse that was about to come out deep into his chest.

The Demon King looked at such a hero with interest and nodded his head.

“Sorry. I’ll be careful with this one too.”

Sharpie apologized and softened her face.
And put Ella down in her arms.

“I have something to give you as an apology!”

Seeing the demon lord put his hand in her pocket, Karine was automatically wary.
For some reason, I felt like I was going to play a joke on this side again.

“I should have just told you to be careful.”

“I’m afraid this body will make fun of our hero again?”

But to dispel Carine’s doubts, Sharpie really pulled out her gift.

“Is that the magic stone you recommended last time?”

“That’s right.”

The bluish-white mana stone that the demon king was obsessed with until he collided with Hernan yesterday.
Strangely, the demon king tried to hand it to the hero.

“How is it?”

The demon king passed the children reaching for the shining jewel and placed it directly into the hero’s hand.
When Karine took her magic stone, she realized that it made her look slightly different from last time.

“Did you process it into a necklace?”

“El did it. He said he would give it to you, so he looked at it himself.”

Carine shuddered at the sound of her name coming out of her sharpie.
And she felt both displeased and thrilled at the same time.

Her displeasure is because Mongma dared to put Hernán’s nickname in her mouth, and her excitement is because ‘L’ made this for herself.

“L… Did Hernan make it himself?”

“Huh. Would you like to wear it around your neck?”

Carine, who immediately put her necklace around her neck, stopped her hand for an instant.

Hernan made it himself, so why does the demon lord hand it over?
Was this really made by Hernán himself?

Could it be that Hernan just made this without thinking and gave it to Sharpie?

When Karine struggled with her doubts and displeasure, the Demon King invited her back with her coy voice.

“Come on, put it on. It will suit you! From the color and the atmosphere emitted by the mana stone itself… Does everyone get along so well with Carine?”

Carine, who hesitated even after hearing her words, immediately closed her eyes tightly.

Even if that demon king’s words were all lies.
Now, I wanted to enjoy the thrill of receiving a gift from Hernan.

“Ah…”

Sharpie looked at the warrior wearing her magic stone necklace and murmured in admiration.

“It really suits you. As if we were one body from the beginning.”

It’s the demon king’s words that always felt like he had an ulterior motive, but now it’s like a pure compliment.
Maybe the demon lord really wanted to give this to us?

Karine opened her mouth, feeling a little confused.

“This is well received. Then let’s get the kids ready to take a nap. I have to prepare dinner soon.”

“Huh? We haven’t finished talking yet.”

Sharpie’s expression returned to the face Karine was familiar with, that of the Demon King.

“We were talking about Silnia being her queen.”

“So what? Even if you get pregnant first, so we’ll take her place as queen? If Hernan didn’t cooperate, it wouldn’t be possible anyway.”

Carine asked a question while fiddling with her magic stone.
Sharpie was silent for a moment and watched it.

However, she soon opened her mouth with a smile on her face.

“No. This body wants to talk about the new queen.”

“Okay. She is talking about Silnia.”

The demon king leaned towards Karine with her red eyes shining.

“There is no such thing as an eternal queen. Just like Potty did.”
