Chapter 142 – #141 the Aspirations of the 1st Demon Duke Felhound

“Thank you so much, everyone.”

A black-haired girl expresses her sincere gratitude to the women looking at her around the bed.

Because I saw with my own eyes how much he ran for her and devoted himself to her treatment during her week.

“Kindre said… That it would be best to lie still in bed until today. So just keep lying there.”

Satra looks back at her blue-haired woman.
Kindre then nodded her head, confirming that what the princess said was correct.

“That’s what the priests say. So, even if it hurts, stay in bed until today.”

“Thank you. I was quite rude… But everyone took care of me like this.”

Then Bela sat down next to Satra and said.

“Ah, thank you for everything! If Cale is your younger brother, he is just like our real younger brother~”

At that one word, the surrounding women raised their hands to their foreheads.

From the previous incident, everyone knew that this dark-haired girl had some special feelings for her brother.
But there you say something that feels like, ‘Please take good care of my brother-in-law!’

– Giggling. At best, it just pours cold water on the friendly atmosphere.

‘Hmm. It’s a big deal that Bella, who has such good instincts, makes such mistakes.’

– Even though Gwangnyeon has a good sense of humor, he often can’t control his talent. Actions are faster than words~

Well, that’s true.

Even the princess, who had given up her intelligence quite a bit to the size of her breasts, realized this and quickly took action to correct the situation.
But something astounding happened.

The girl smiled brightly without showing any sign of her displeasure.

“Hehe. Thank you. It makes me feel good that you think of me that way.”

“Eh…?”

While everyone else is dumbfounded, only the red-haired woman speaks more excitedly.

Bella said, reaching out and stroking her girl’s hair.

“For now, take a good rest today and think about what to do tomorrow. There are still about 5 days left until the vacation ends. Until then, let’s have fun! Well, if you’re bored, I’ll ask you to talk to me, so just tell me!”

“Yes. I will. Hehe.”

We were the ones who couldn’t adapt to the conversation between those two people.

Just when I was worried that there might be some kind of scheming, the girl who saw our expressions smiled again and spoke.

“But you all know that you can’t just ignore your brother, right? I will be watching from now on. I will see whether they are suitable for my brother or not.”

At those words, the faces of all the women in the room straightened.

Since coming down to the Cranberry Estate, everyone has been secretly paying close attention to her family, Satra.

She was completely at a loss and didn’t know what to do… But when she took the initiative and made a gesture of reconciliation, I couldn’t help but be thankful.
In that way, my brother’s relationship with women was able to improve drastically in just one week.

After leaving Satra to rest in peace, I take a leisurely walk outside.

I wanted to relax and have a cup of tea inside the house, but there was a high possibility that I would be caught by the women and have to beat them without even seeing them, so I hurried out.

– But. Even the younger sister that I was most concerned about has been resolved, so they can’t sit still!

‘Huh. If I get caught, I’ll probably have until the sun rises tomorrow morning. It’s clear.’

There is no reason to get caught and run for 24 hours.

As we looked at the villagers plowing the fields and exchanged greetings one by one, Kael’thas was suddenly spotted on the way.

He was sitting on a stump, quietly watching the villagers work.

‘Hmm? What are you doing?’

– Well. He must be thinking while looking at humans again. He’s been doing that for years in the demon world, and now he’s doing the same thing here. Ugh. Do you really know what fun you have?

I’m so focused, I’m trying to get out of the way in case I get in the way…

Suddenly he turns his head and stares at me.

In the end, our eyes met, and I approached him, saying hello lightly.

“What are you doing here so early in the morning?”

“I was observing what life assimilates between humans and nature is like in this high mountain area.”

“Isn’t that a common sight everywhere?”

“It’s the way of the world that you can see something new every time you look. And this is my first time visiting a village in the alpine region.”

And then Kael’thas holds out his hand.
There were two cups in his hands.

“Coffee powder is included.”

“Yes?”

What does it mean?

When I made an expression of not understanding, he added an explanation.

“Water is yours to ride.”

“Oh, yes.”

If you take a closer look, it seems that demons cannot summon water.

Can’t handle elemental magic?

“But when I looked at Beres and the other demons, I heard they were making urine too?”

When I gave him coffee using water + heating magic, Kael’thas said while savoring the taste.

“It only looks like urine, but in reality it’s not. It’s mana itself.”

“Yes?”

“Even though it appears to be a substance, when ingested or absorbed, it reverts to mana and disappears completely.”

Now that I think about it, it seemed like the demon bitch impersonating Beres also told a similar story.

After eating my own urine, I complained and asked what this was.

No, but I don’t understand.

“But why does Perez create something like that on purpose…”

– That’s right. We all want to contribute to improving the fertility and sexual fantasy of our demons…

However, Kael’thas thinks differently.

Perez interrupts while speaking and appeals his thoughts.

“The 4th Demon Realm Duke is a unique demon among demons. Whenever I have time, I observe other races and actively learn anything that I feel might be a little bit exciting.”

– Hey, fellhound. What do you mean by that?

What does it mean?

It means you are a born pervert.

I was just uncomfortable with Kael’thas’ refined verbal expressions, but after listening to the voice of my heart, Beres threw a tantrum.

– Where does this philosophy pervert!

My partner jumps out of my body, grabs the handsome blond man by the neck, and shakes him.

I didn’t want other people to see it, so I quickly pushed its head and pushed it back between my crotches.

“Let go! You can’t just go in like this… Eup!”

“Just go in. If you keep giving me trouble, I’ll skip today’s anus.”

Then it immediately becomes quiet.

More than anything else, the most important thing was whether I could eat today’s anus.

Well… If you look at it this way, it’s true that they are pervert demons.

– Hey!

I’m sorry.

I ignored the shouting Bereth and looked back at Kael’thas.

He was peacefully drinking tea and looking at the people working in the fields again.

“Uh… Kael’thas.”

“Why are you doing that?”

“You know what I’ve agreed to help you with? It’s to connect you with the 3rd or 4th Empress.”

He lowers his head saying he is listening.

I told him about something I had been thinking about for the past few days.

“In your opinion, Kael’thas, which force do you think would be better to absorb first in order to take control of the empire and enthrone the princess?”

Looking at the current succession structure of the empire, the 1st and 2nd princes are closely related.

It was originally a close match, but the 2nd Prince faction, which lost its garden due to the last Academy incident, was greatly pushed back…

Not only that, an incident of insulting the royal family occurred in Florian, making the situation even worse.

But then the demon commotion occurred.

It was revealed that the person who summoned the demon that caused an uproar in the capital was the 1st Prince faction.

The 1st Prince faction is in a hurry to cut off the tail… I don’t know. It won’t be easy.

From the 2nd Prince faction’s perspective, it is a golden opportunity to turn the current situation around.

The two biggest powers, the 1st Prince faction and the 2nd Prince faction, were still on equal footing, and that could be seen as the reality of the current empire.

In order to race against them, it was necessary to first sweep away all the forces of the 3rd and 4th empresses.

‘But the problem is…’

Is it from the 3rd Empress or the 4th Empress?

Kael’thas seemed to think for a moment, then asked softly.

“From Princess Reina’s point of view, it’s a matter of whether she absorbs what was originally her power first or later. What do you think, Cale?”

“I think the most ideal thing is to absorb the forces of the Four Empresses.”

“That’s right. If it can be done, that’s the best way.”

If you absorb the 4th Empress’s power first, there will be justification, and it will be very easy to absorb the 3rd Empress’s power, which is focused on the younger sibling.

In particular, as they began to defend the abandoned 3rd princess first, the 4th empress’s nobles may be able to prioritize both justification and utility over the 3rd empress’s forces.

“In politics, it is very important who extends his hand first. The later he extends his hand, the less reward he receives after the battle for the throne.”

In particular, Princess Reina is currently completely abandoned by the Third Empress nobles.

Simply put, if it is even slightly proven that it is a worthy vessel, the 4th Empress’s power will provide more solid support than the mother’s power.

“Nobles are all creatures greedy for positions and money. There is no way they would miss out on such a grand imperial succession party. Everyone will participate unconditionally, and Princess Reina, the daughter of the 3rd Empress, will accept the 4th Empress’s forces as close associates. If you let me in…”

“Others will also jump in without hesitation.”

“Yes. However, the problem is that it is almost impossible for the 3rd princess, Princess Reina, to absorb the 4th empress’s power.”

Kael’thas puts the coffee cup down on the floor.

The cup, which was made of wood, was soon covered with black magic energy and turned into black ash powder.

As I take a quick sip of the coffee in my hand, I can sense the pleasant scent of wood at the tip of my nose.

Apparently, when he sensed me coming in this direction, he cut down a nearby tree and made an impromptu one and was waiting.

-Anyway… The nobility of the world is so vulgar that if you look at it alone!

Bereth read my thoughts and immediately gossiped about Kael’thas.

The person who heard the story turned to look at me.

Ugh. I really can’t live because of this guy’s business partner. First, let’s clear up the misunderstanding.

“Hey, what did you just say about Perez…”

“Is there a method in mind?”

“… Yes?”

“A way to attract the forces of the Fourth Empress.”

“Well, I don’t know.”

I feel like it’s helping me somehow.

When I asked him, Kael’thas said.

“If you, who are friendly to the demon race, become a secret power ruling this empire, it would be a very good thing for me. It would be easier for me to operate.”

Well… You can think like that.

At the same time, the 1st Duke of Demon World spoke of his aspirations.

“I hope that humans and demons can have a friendly and positive relationship with each other. If you care, I am thinking of talking to the demon king and establishing diplomatic relations with this empire.”

“Eh…? State religion?”

“Yes. Right now, we don’t know much about each other and there are misconceptions, but I remember that if we interact and talk directly, there will come a day when we can understand and accept each other.”

“Hmm… I don’t know. From my perspective, even if we understand each other, if one side is too strong, it’s difficult to interact…”

It is natural for the strong to rise to the top.

Isn’t this true not only for humans but also for demons?

Of course, demons could be said to be fairer than humans because they were recognized for their positions purely based on their abilities.

However, humans are inherently weaker than demons.

Not only humans but most living creatures in this world.

If exchange occurs, soon the inhabitants of this world will become the lowest class, that is, slaves.

Felhound, the 1st Duke of Demon World, read my thoughts and shrugged his shoulders and said.

“What are you worried about? Your goal is to sow your seed to all the imperial family, royalty, and nobles. You are not human now. You are a god. Do you think the children born with your seed will be ordinary?”

Uh…? Well, after hearing it, that’s also true…?

“Children who will never be pushed aside by demons will be born. Then, other races will also covet your offspring. You, imbued with the desire of Beres, will also not reject the women who come rolling in. Then, naturally, if demons come to this world, it will be a big problem. Such wrong thoughts will disappear.”

After listening carefully to his story, Kael’thas seemed to have pride and pride in his own race, but there was no such thing as ostracizing other races.

The conclusion he reached after observing for a long time was that being together is the closest to the ideal utopia.

– Oh, oh. This is a world where you can legally interact with multiple races, right? If that’s the ideal, I agree! Should I go to the Demon King right now?

Perez was excited just by the thought of making rice cake.

Because I was screaming and running around, I couldn’t say a word about how to attack the 4th Empress.

In the end, Kael’thas and my story came to an end.

However, listening to his story gave me an opportunity to think seriously once again about the world my future generations will live in.

‘The races that know each other well live together and live freely…’

Close your eyes and imagine.

In the city streets, numerous people of similar races roam freely.

If different races mix and live together, wouldn’t we be closer to equality than before?

‘Hmm… I’m having a hard time imagining it.’

Still, I thought it wouldn’t be that difficult to achieve harmony between races.

When I see a co-worker chattering away in my head.

– Sisters around the world, wait! I’m going!!

Well, with kids like these, things will work out somehow.

In particular, isn’t sexual desire present in all races?

It was I who realized for the first time the usefulness of Beres, drinking coffee from a wooden cup in the high mountains.
