Chapter 208 – Chapter 201 – Family Planning Is Made With the Future in Mind (2)

The stone pen took a picture of the right side of the blackboard with a click.
Hernán brushed off the dripping white powder and spoke his words.

“So you all think we have no choice but to go here?”

On the blackboard was a very simplified drawing of the world.

Where they are supposed to be in the center.
There was a painting showing the vast wilderness where it rarely rained, and to the left of it was a crown depicting the human kingdom from which the party of warriors had come.

On the right side of the Great Wilderness, a sharp horn was drawn to signify that the demon king Shafikara is the land of the demons.

“Are you really out there? Where can we go?”

Silnia touched her forehead with a groan.
It seemed that he did not like the conclusion that he had to go to the land of the demons.

“Fortya has rabbit ears, and it has been revealed that he is a demon, so say yes.”

Potty’s ears perked up at the elf’s words.
Then, the children around her who were eating strawberry pies also raised and lowered her ears one after another.

Hernán listened to Silnia continue with his eyes averted from the cute yet insane scene.

“But what about me, Marina, and the hero? Besides, you too, Hernan! We are not demons. Can you go to the land of demons and live properly?”

“Sylnia. I asked him to lower his voice because he was in front of the kids several times…”

“You even have kids… !”

The elf gritted his teeth and managed to lower his voice, but he couldn’t stop the force from entering the tip of the horse.

“If I go outside, I can even use spirit magic. It might be all right if the brave man regains the power of that god or something. But what about Marina?”

The silent Marina was only braiding the hair of her own daughters.

“Isn’t it hard for her to protect herself and her children? Even if you say that Ernan fights quite a bit, can you protect all the children from the demons?”

Sylnia’s expression gradually becomes grim.
If you leave me alone, I’ll curse you.

Hernan approached the elf, who instantly heated up the atmosphere.
And, restraining the other women from raising her objection, she held out her stone pen to Silnia.

“Why is this?”

“Then you explain.”

“What… ?”

Her mouth asked what she was explaining, but already Silnia shrugged her shoulders and averted her gaze.

Hernán tugged at her hand, realizing that she was improving her elf-management skills.

“Ruler. You explain If it wasn’t the land of demons, where would you go after you left here? We haven’t come to a conclusion yet, so opinions are always welcome.”

This is the topic we’ve been discussing so far, and it’s the core of what to do after the imminent escape.

Where will you stay

There has been a conversation going on between adults about it.
And during the meeting, no productive comments ever came from Sylnia’s lips.

“Uh…”

When Silnia stood in front of her blackboard and got everyone’s attention, her ears burned bright red.
However, she might not be able to do anything if a mat was laid on her, so she immediately put her stone pen down on the blackboard.

“Look! Where we are right now is rhubarb, isn’t it?”

“Huh! Look at the altitude of the sun or the amount of precipitation.”

Only the sharpie answered the elf’s question with her eyes twinkling.
Sylnia was the only student in her class who drew her circles with a very unwilling face.

“Right now, it is difficult for us to return to the kingdom because of the human gods, and even to the land of demons…”

“What are the bitches?”

At Ella’s question, Silnia hurriedly turned her gaze to Hernán.
Of course, Hernan was looking at Silnia with bloody eyes.

The elf, now completely red from his ears to his neck, pulled out his words as if squeezing them out.

“Eh, it’s a word only used in the elven forest. It’s not a human horse, so you can ignore Nin.”

“Teach Ella the language of Sylnia’s mother later. I’ve already learned most of her mother’s Asmodian language!”

“Wow, our Ella will be really smart when we go later, right? I must be a diplomat!”

While Sharpie praised Ella and drew her attention, Hernán put a finger on her lips to warn her to watch her mouth.

“Queen. Keep your dignity.”

Her queen Silnia pointed to her blackboard again, her lips pursed.

“Anyway, isn’t it difficult for humans and elves to go and live in the land of demons?”

“So? Are you even going to tell me to just stay here? Or should we go back to the kingdom and be chased for the rest of our lives?”

Words mixed with faint annoyance flowed from Karine.
She had her twins on her lap playing with a piece of wood in the shape of a building.

The wooden pieces of various building shapes were quite worn, so it didn’t seem like there was any danger of harming children playing with them.

Okay.
Old

At first, Hernan, who had no expectations from Silnia’s opinion, looked at the pieces Karine made during her first year here.

The wooden sculptures depicting buildings in the capital that are now fading from memory.
I feel a strange sensation.

For him and Karine, the capital city described by those wooden pieces was their hometown and the place they believed they would return to.
However, for his children, it would be an unfamiliar place that they encountered only as toys.

The land of mankind must be as unfamiliar to them as the land of demons.

“That’s exactly what I want to say!”

The inside of Hernán’s head, which had changed a little emotionally, was washed clean by Silnia’s continued shouts.

“Let’s just stay here!”

Silnia hit the very center of her blackboard with a stone pen.
While Hernan hesitated as he felt his head stop for a moment, someone else opened his mouth first.

“Are you serious?”

Marina asked curiously as she finished her second daughter’s braid.

“You want to stay here?”

“No! So I don’t mean that. Then it’s not an escape!”

What are you talking about?

To be honest, I brought her to the blackboard with the goal of making Silnia shut up, but with such a dignified expression, I became interested.

“Can you see this?”

The elf Sylnia rummaged in her pocket and pulled out her red berries.
She was the fruit of attention growing inside Silnia’s special room.

“Isn’t that attention fruit? Didn’t you throw it all away because it was dangerous?”

“This is open today. I took it to throw away.”

The flesh is safe, but the seeds are poisonous, so all the yew berries would be collected and discarded by Silnia ahead of time.

She was taking out one of them and showing it to everyone.

“As you all know, there is a divine tree in the center of the elven forest, right?”

“A tree that could not grow in the climate of the land. It was a note in the forest of Silnia.”

Silnia nodded and crushed her fruit.
A light sweet scent flowed out, and a very small seed emerged from it.

“When we get out of here, let’s plant a divine tree.”

“What?”

“When we go outside this house, let’s plant a sacred tree in front of it.”

Silence reigned between the adults.
And the atmosphere in the silence was not favourable.

“Let’s make a forest!”

Silnia waved her hand as if to dispel her undesirable air.

“Originally, when a sacred tree is planted, a forest grows around it very quickly. So, as long as the divine tree is alive, no matter how much the forest is destroyed, it’s okay. It would be the same even if it was rhubarb here.”

A look of absurdity appeared on the faces of the women from the warrior party.
Hernan also came up with countless objections, so his face was not that different from the girls.

However, Sharpie, who did not know the details of the divine tree, asked a plain question instead of a counterargument.

“Hmm. If the divine tree burns down, will the forest be destroyed?”

It would not have been said with any other intention.

But the word burnt torch, paired with her signature smirk, was enough to turn her question into a provocation.

“What?”

Looking at Sylnia, who had a blank expression, Sharpie answered indifferently.

“If it were rhubarb, it would be very dry. Of course, the risk of fire is also high. Of course, the forest expert is Silnia, an elf, so are you saying that considering that?”

In fact, Hernan didn’t take it too seriously.
Silnia, who was not good at her words, would easily harden her expression when asked a question that caught her off guard in this way.

But at that moment, Ernan’s eyes caught Silnia’s body, not her face.

The stone pen in her hand trembled slightly, and blood vessels protruded on the back of her hand.
The muscles in her shoulders and back were also pulled tight, and she felt like they were going to jump out at any moment.

In contrast, the expression on her face did not change at all.

Attack.
It was the process of preparing the body before attacking someone.

Sharpie, who had lived her whole life without a fight, seemed oblivious to the signs of violence that Silnia’s body was now fervently sending.

Well, from Sharpie’s point of view, it’s only natural that she raised an issue worth taking out, so it’s understandable that she doesn’t feel the sense of crisis.

The problem, of course, was that it was something that really stimulated Silnia.

“Sylnia!”

Unlike the demon king, Hernan, who is accustomed to violence, quickly called Silnia.
She only turned her green eyes to Hernán.

Only then did Carine or Marina feel the harbinger of violence and swallowed her breath.
Hernán gently leaned over her so that Silnia could not see them.

If you see a nervous expression, you can be more stimulated.

“There aren’t many of those stone pens left.”

Hernán pointed at Silnia’s hand, where her strength went into, feeling as relaxed as she could.
Silnia also lowered her eyes and looked at the stone pen with the tip of her body shaking.

Even though it was made of stone, stone dust was falling little by little, probably because of excessive force.

“If you break it, I will cut a tree from your forest to make charcoal. You know how much kids draw and write these days, right?”

With her easy-going smile, Silnia placed her hand on her son’s blue hair, which she had left at her place.

“Aren’t the trees going to disappear at this rate?”

“No trees? I like the forest.”

As Ethan bounced her leg, Hernan spoke to Silnia once again.

“Aren’t you going to continue talking? Everyone is looking at you.”

In addition to her son, the man she loves looks on.
The elf silently looked at the two.

“Ehh.”

Sylnia sighed deeply.

“My personality died a lot too.”

Hernán looked at her sharpie with relief.

Perhaps sensing her bloody aura, she glanced sideways at Hernán, completely erasing the expression on her face.
She only shook her head slightly, meaning that she would tell her later.

She let go of her smirk of understanding and nodded her head.

Maybe she didn’t know the exact situation, but she seemed to notice that this side helped her from the atmosphere.
So it must have been a smile and a nod as a sign of gratitude.

“Whoa…”

She sighed involuntarily, and Hernán laughed.

In an old story, how did kings with multiple wives survive this mayhem?

He has no intention of leaving the women he is already close to or his children, but it is not easy to have a relationship with women who are uncomfortable with affection.

“Ethan.”

Hernán, who was in a daze for a moment, inadvertently called his son next to him.

“Why?”

The child turned his dark green eyes to his father.

Perhaps because he inherited the blood of an elf, he has a very pretty appearance even though he is a boy.
Unlike his older brother Una, his personality is lively.

Maybe when he grows up as an adult, he will grow up to be a great handsome man.
Even if you stay still, women will be twisted one after another.

“Don’t copy your father when you grow up.”

“Hey? What?”

Hernán focused on Silnia’s explanation about the child who did not understand at all.

Regardless of how many people his son meets later, that will be after he gets out of here safely.

“You know I’m stupid? I didn’t bring up the sacred tree out of the blue, you guys!”

“Isn’t that smart too?”

“What? Marina, are you talking harsh these days?”

And it’s only possible to settle down peacefully after leaving.

“It tickles!”

Hernan entered the conversation between Silnia and the other women, tickling his son’s leg.
