Chapter 80 – Confessions of an Ex-Girlfriend

Episode 80 Confession of an Ex-Girlfriend

“The bathroom is over there.
It’s dusty because I came on horseback.
Just wash up.”

“You’re trying to prepare dinner by yourself while I wash, right?
Don’t be fooled
I want to eat and wash up.”

“… You are quick to notice.”

“Sure.
So tell me the menu and wash first.
I will prepare the ingredients.”

Take off your jacket and hang it on a hanger.

“I can take it off by myself.”

“Treatment to guests is always the utmost.”

Lie.

I’ve never seen Master take off someone’s coat besides me in the past two hundred years.

Even the former demon king was no exception.

“What the hell is this?”

“Oh. It was given to me by Balak.”

A wine-colored liquid in a bottle the size of a thumb.

Berserker’s berserk potion.

I took it out of my luggage and put it in my jacket because I was worried that I might shake it and drop it…

“This is confiscated.”

“Yes?! No!!”

“This is what berserkers use.
You learned Blood Overdrive before, so it’s more dangerous.
You are not a berserk
Do you know how serious this side effect is?”

Oh no, not even my mother.

Master is almost paranoid when it comes to my safety.

“There is no need to use medicine and technology at the same time.
I also don’t use it because I’m afraid of the side effects.
So please give it back.”

“No.
Instead, tomorrow I will teach you the magic to replace it.”

Replacement magic?

You’re not teaching me how to do mad magic, are you?

That’s medicine or magic, that’s where it’s at…

Yea, that would be different

“All right.”

After he nodded, Master took the medicine bottle and went to the bathroom.

“You wash in the bathroom over there.
It’s for guests.
Let’s all wash up and come out and get ready.”

“Yes.”

Sorry, Ballack.
It was stolen right away without a chance to try it.

Well, don’t worry, we won’t fight because of the atmosphere.

You’ll never be my executioner again.

It is full of dust and sweat from riding a horse for several days and staying homeless.

I need to wash my bra and yoga clothes again.

I’m so sorry.

Wash thoroughly and wash your hair.

Wipe behind the ears too.

I sneak out of the hanging gown, and as before, my clothes are hanging on the doorknob in the guest bathroom.

I skillfully pick up the clothes and head to the guest room.

Well, since before, when I came, I always used room number 1.

The door opens when I touch the purple beads that I am accustomed to.

My luggage is placed on the desk in the room, and clothes to change are placed on the bed.

Be meticulous as always.

Master does all of these things himself.

No matter how hypnotized he is, he hates strangers entering his house.

“Let’s go cook now.”

Change your clothes and go to the kitchen.

I’m roughly checking the condition of knives, tools, and seasonings, so Master changes into comfortable clothes and comes out.

Beige sleeveless neck tee with white cotton pants.

Ah, that’s too good

Even when Marianne wears baggy clothes, her curves show through.

By the way, Master has more volume than Marianne, but she wears it according to the fit.

… Body is foul

The completion of fashion is the face, and the root of fashion is the body.

Even if they fit well, they are all beautiful and sexy.

Besides, the underwear inside the white cotton pants is black, so you can see the panty line and color from the back.

… No nosebleeds
No way.

“Could you shred the carrot there?”

“Yes. Can I chop the onion too?”

“Yes, and… What!”

Clink!

“Don’t move.
The slippers are thin, and you could get hurt if you step on them.”

“Ugh, sorry.”

“No.
Get it sorted out soon.”

Master gave me a luxurious-looking porcelain plate, but I missed it.

Wipe it clean with magic.

“Whew…”

Today’s menu is lasagna.
And whole salted white fish.

Master likes seafood, so let’s cook with fish from the ice storage.

The wine is a white wine from Southern Fortezza that goes well with fish.

As an appetizer, wrap soft vegetables in thin hamong and eat with refreshing orange sauce.

“What about dessert?”

“There is sherbet in the ice storage.
Here’s the special plate I just brought in…”

Clink!

“Oh! What should I do…
I never wrote that…”

Weird.
Master always prepares his own meals, so he’s good at it.

Van Dark also spoke.
There have been three recent assassination attempts.

You heard about it when we met on the way to the refugee camp, so you must have made it yourself?

Instinctively, as she tried to pick up the pieces of the plate, she saw Master’s hand tremble slightly.

Nervous.
Unrest.
Fret.

“… Just lasagna, please.
I will do the rest.”

“No, no. Even though you are a guest…”

“You are so nervous right now.
Look at this.
Even my shoulders are stiff.”

Gently kneading Master’s shoulder made it completely hard.

… What are you so nervous about talking about?

I push Master’s back and send him to make lasagna sauce.

I trim the white fish and bury it in the salt.

And put it in the oven in a tin.

After breaking off the salt on the outside and eating the flesh on the inside, it’s done.

Prepare the sauce for dipping separately.

“Wow, there is also refined rock salt.
I have to write this.”

Abu Bakr, the family of Sir Thomas, the commander of the paladin escort, is located close to the desert trade route with the East.

This kind of rock salt accounts for an important part of the Abu Bakr family’s trade income.

“Hmmmm~”

A hum comes out.

“You look good.”

“It reminds me of the old days.”

[If we get married, we cook together like now.]

[What am I going to do for you?]

[Ah, if I don’t do it, my cooking skills will deteriorate.
Then, if Master has a baby, someone will feed it.]

[… That’s it too.
Please take good care of me.]

After cooking is finished, the food is delivered to the dining area.

“Today we are going to eat outside.”

“Do you take it to the top terrace?
Or the courtyard?”

“No.
Aerial Terrace.”

Unbelievable.
Scale is different.

A wide flat table and dining table are floating in the air.

Magic that rearranges natural forces can’t be that permanent or last that long.

An aerial terrace created by pouring mana literally.

“A lot of cool things happened while I wasn’t there.”

“Oh.
Did you see anything else?”

“Yes.
Like the orange tree in the yard.
Oh, and there was also a blue door in the basement.”

When I said the blue door, Master’s eyebrows twitched slightly, so I didn’t miss it.

* * *

“Thank you for this food.”

“I’ll eat well too.”

Jingle.

The sound of wine glasses filled with fortezza white wine clinking lightly.

As we ate on the air terrace on top of the hill, the view was clear.

Thanks to you, it’s so cool to see the sunset beside us.

“Aren’t you dazzling?”

“Huh. Because the hair here is long.”

Because of the parting, the hair blocks the sun in the setting sun.

Sararak.

It is very beautiful to see Master tucking his hair behind his ears.

Moon to Moon.

Eat quietly but deliciously.

After breaking the salt, Master ate the fish dish in admiration.

“… It tastes good.
Happy.”

When I smiled happily and supported one cheek with my hand, I laughed a lot too.

Appetizers too.
Main road.
Sherbet for dessert.
Everything was so delicious.

Beyond that, the sunset that illuminates the world in a gradation is also beautiful.

A sumptuous dinner.

“Lasagna, you make it well.”

“I eat it often these days.”

“Didn’t you like pasta?
It’s flour, right?”

“… Because you like it.”

“Ah.”

An unexpected answer pops in.

I am speechless.

Master puts down the sherbet and wipes her mouth with a napkin, then looks straight at me.

“I fed rice through Eva, but you secretly made it and ate it.”

“Oh, I heard you.”

No wonder.
It’s strange that an old maid who has lived only in the kingdom of Amitie all her life suddenly learns to cook the imperial cuisine of the Far East.

If you are a master who has a wide range of knowledge and enjoys rice dishes, this can be explained.

“Kamu, my disciple.
I’ve been watching you for nearly two hundred years.
So I pride myself on knowing you really well.”

“That’s right.
You know that.”

“No, I know better than you think.
So, I know you will be disappointed in what I am about to tell you.”

Master’s hand trembled as he put down the napkin.

“Don’t tremble.
Please speak slowly.”

“Ha, but… You will be angry
So, you have to listen to everything I have to say.”

“All right.
Calm down.”

Master grabbed the shaking hand under the table with his other hand.

Dreuk.

I got up and put the shawl I had prepared in advance over Master’s shoulders.

Then, get down on one knee next to Master and bring him to eye level.

I hold the trembling hand tightly with both hands.

Master is trying hard to avoid my eyes.

“If you find it difficult to talk, start with the easiest one.”

“… There is nothing easy about it.”

“From a personal point of view.
For example… Why did you suddenly ask to break up with me a hundred years ago?”

Master’s face suddenly turned blue.

Nene bit her lower lip and bowed her head.

“… You have always wanted a baby very much.”

“It was.
Because your girlfriend is so pretty.”

[Yes, yes, I hope to have a daughter who looks like you in the future.
Don’t you think it would be too cute to raise one as a mini-me version of Nene?]

Master and I talk about who we will have a baby that looks like.

[Wow, those baby shoes are so cute.]

When I saw cute baby shoes, I went to look at them together.

[Hehe, if you have a baby, you should have sex while breastfeeding~~]

Isn’t this?

Anyway, I think I said a lot of similar things.

The lifespan of demons is about a thousand years, and the average lifespan is 700 to 800 years, considering diseases and accidents, excluding war.

However, the population of demons is much smaller.

Because?
Because fertility is low in the first place.

Well, leaving aside socio-economic issues such as rising real estate prices, it is.

I also have only one younger brother.

So I wanted to have many babies with the woman I love.

“And I… I had a baby once.”

“… Did you?”

It’s the first time you hear it.

I heard that she had no children with her ex-husband.

As the strength in my hand loosened, Master’s hand trembled even more.

Tight.

When I tried to hold it back, Master struggled to control her voice.

“We were really happy.
But the times were bad.
It was the first year when humans gathered around the Sun God Church and attacked in droves as a holy war.”

The year of the 1st War to Defend the Fatherland.

“The general mobilization order was issued and everyone was conscripted.
He is a fighting force, and I am a wizard.
I didn’t even know I had a baby at first.
So I went on as usual…
I found out later and informed my husband.
He was really happy too.”

My legs are shaking now.

It must be because he is recalling the painful memories of that day.

“Since the conscription order was lifted, the pregnant woman was tested at the rear and was on standby.
At that time… He died in battle, and I… I don’t remember much after that.
… The baby in my belly had miscarried.”

Ah…
The image of the day is vividly drawn.

The 1st War to Defend the Fatherland is the event in which the Sun God of Humans declared the first ‘Holy War’.

At that time, it was not the kingdom of Amity, but anyway, a shocking day when a large-scale human force self-destructed and invaded.

A time when indiscriminate massacres were committed because of different races.

Many large-scale war crimes were committed.

“Magicians are still a rare human resource.
You have to have talent, and it takes a long time to nurture it.
So… I was also re-conscripted.”

“… You suffered.
Your heart and body must have hurt…”

Tight.

Now Master’s hand trembled and grabbed my hand.

Even if he lowers his head, he looks up slightly as I get down on one knee.

Master’s miserable expression was clearly visible.

“Thank you…
So… Mobilized in battle after battle, I had no time to rest.
If I rest, the people next to me will die.
So I didn’t rest
I thought it was okay though.
Because I was young then.
I was less than fifty years old.
So I didn’t think to look back at my body separately.
After the war, he devoted himself to magic research.”

“… Calm down.
Come on, have a little drink here.”

Klopp.

Master barely swallowed a sip of water.

Everything I see is breathtaking.

… The day I went to a bid for a supplier of restorative herbs.

I wonder if Master Rumika and Master felt like this when they saw me collapsed?

“Haha.
So I met you, I liked you, I loved you.
I also wanted a baby that looked like you so much.
I wanted to hold a small child like you in my arms.
I missed seeing you happy too.
By the way…”

[I will never have a baby.]

[… What are you talking about, Desdemona?
Say it again.]

[It would be difficult to have a baby.
Maybe you won’t have it at all
… The body organs necessary for conception are damaged.]

[… What?]

[You couldn’t take care of yourself after the miscarriage.
The wound that occurred at that time did not recover, so it seems that it did not recover well.]

[… There’s no way!!
Check again!!
Try again!!]

[I’m sorry, yes.
… I’m really sorry.]

“It’s what Desdymona told me, so it’s accurate.”

“So from then on… So with me…”

“Huh…
I tried harder because I wanted to deny it…”

From a certain moment on, Master, no, my lover, Nene, induced me to ejaculate inside whenever I made love.

We fought quite a lot while almost morbidly rushing in and wrapping around our waists…

At that time, I always insisted on external vaginal ejaculation because the premarital pregnancy was not to die.

There were already many people who badmouthed the love between priests and priests, but if she got pregnant before marriage, it would put a strain on the honor of Master, the Four Heavenly Kings.

He couldn’t have been pointed at more because of me.

… I never imagined there would be such a background.

“I’m sorry, you fought a lot because of me.”

“Are you okay.
You apologized for my mistake earlier.”

“Sorry, uh… So I… Hey, I deserve to be by your side as a woman…”

Prison.

I hugged her

And gently patted her on the back.

“I’ve never thought about what you deserve to be by my side.
For me, just being by your side is enough.
Because I’m happy.
So that’s it.
Don’t think like that.”

“But…
Black… I’m black… I am…”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

She sits in her chair and holds her tightly in her arms.

While she was comforting her in her arms, the sun set before she knew it.

The distant horizon disappears leaving only a very sharp line.

“… Have you calmed down?”

“Yeah, yes… Sniff… Little…”

“I wouldn’t have been disappointed or hated Master just because I couldn’t have a baby.
I didn’t love the baby, I loved you.”

Seriously.

At that time, even if I had heard this confession a hundred years ago, my heart would not have changed.

“Thank you…
Really… Heck, thank you… “

“Are you okay.
Really.”

Pat Pat.

“Kamu… I’m really sorry, but I’m just starting to confess and ask for forgiveness.
In fact…”

“I’ll hear from you later.
It’s cold.
Let’s go in and warm ourselves up.
Calm down.”

Now, if the story continues, I really think what will become of Master.

The moment when the arrogant master’s eyes turned black and died.

My heart sank.

I’m a little better now because I’ve been calmed down, but if I continue here again, Master will be in danger.

Let’s calm down somehow.
