Chapter 15: Peaceful sleep
2138 Words
“Hayami Mayu welcome to Elesis.” Said Captain Yuri, and after that Rin brought me in, to spend the night with her.
“Welcome to my home Mayu.”
Rin gives me warm welcome to her home.
Looking around the room, I feel like I can sleep here well. It's clean and tidy. More importantly, there is the bed. Inside the dungeon, I just sleep in thick moss and some monster fur.
“Is this your room?”
I asked.
“Yes, the Elesis fort has female knights too so this is a residence for women.”
“Ehh…”
Rin then gets something from her closet and presented it to me.
“Mayu this…”
“What? Clothes!”
“They’re clothes for you to wear now. As a girl wearing that dull-looking clothes is not good for you. A girl must always look cute. Not to mention you were naked when we found you floating in the sea.”
Said Rin.
My face started to become red because of embarrassment.
My body grows up, I guess my clothes and equipment were destroyed during the process.
Rin gets more clothes and gives them to me.
“I have dresses and underwear… Is this enough.”
“Yes, it’s enough.”
Rin is really kind and treating me well.
“There’s so much thank you. Are they your old… not right…”
“Mello made them.”
Said Rin.
Mello, the silent guy beside her earlier.
Speaking of making. A guy makes these cute clothes?! he made all of this!?
I’m in a state of shock. I never think a man can tailor such cute clothes and underwear. Is he a bisexual? Judging the book by its cover is wrong but my imagination.
“Mello tailored it when he heard there was a lost child. Because Mello is that great! Is a shy type and rarely speaks, but he is very kind. Mello is really skillful! He also made the cushion in this room too!”
“That’s great.”
I started to wonder what level his tailoring skill is?
There are many skills related to real life. Like my smith skill, I use it before in forging my weapon and armor.
“He’s a swordsman and support magic-user this clothes he makes was forged with runes of resistance against magic and physical attacks... This fits perfectly doesn’t it?”
Rin said as she dresses me up like a child.
“This clothes has runes.”
I guess I can use a status-check.
[Sleeping pajama: Magic resistance +10% Physical resistance +20.]
So support magic-user can do this.
“What’s a support magic user?”
“You don’t know? Basically, they’re people that can attach magic rune to the equipment. They can attach physical attacks up to weapons and physical defense and resistance to defensive equipment. But not a lot of people can attach two kinds of magic… Mello is a special one of these few support magic users that can do that!! It’s so amazing!”
Eh…
Rin is fired up for some reason.
“He is also a great swordsman, he can tailor and cook. He would be a best boyfriend.”
She reminds me of Kuroe. She’s really praising her a lot, but she has a real “Maiden in love” Feeling right now.
“You really love your boyfriend don’t you, He really sounds great.”
I said.
Rin suddenly slams her hand to the bed and with a shocking sound.
“That’s right! He can become a great boyfriend. No, he doesn’t pay attention to me. I try to talk to him or send letters almost every day before, but I gave up after realizing that he likes men. He's a bisexual, I can’t believe it at first. Months later I accepted it.”
Said Rin while crying.
My judgment is right.
“But still, I’m in love with him I will do my best to get his attention… But that’s not important right now. Try them on!”
Rin pushed me to the bed and dress me up.
“You're so cute Mayu! Wow… It’s soft and frilly. It suits you well! It’s so cute!”
“Thank you very much.”
My cuteness makes her excited and hugged me tightly.
She is very nice to me, but still, Retto tries to kill me before after knowing I’m an elf. I’m very curious I have to tell her.
“Miss Rin, I have something to tell to you.”
“What is it?”
“I’m not a human, I’m an elf.”
“An elf… That’s the reason you have pointy ears.”
“You're not afraid?”
“Why? You so cute, elf is not rare in this country. There are many elves here and they are in the noble class. Some countries serve them as gods. That is one of the reasons Captain Yuri thinks you’re a noble.”
“Eh?”
That’s a relief, Retto’s country must be a country of savages. They don’t have fair rights in every creature, unlike this country.
“Did you know, in my home is full of boys? So I always wanted to have a little sister like you.”
“You’re a big sister?”
“Yes!”
I’m already 17 years old, looking at her appearance maybe we’re just the same age.
Still, is this really alright? Being comfortable in this place. Retto and others might be in trouble. Also why the Crystal dungeon was destroyed? I have too many questions in my head I can’t understand a thing and I’m really confused.
The way she’s hugging me is so nice and comfortable. Rin is so nice. Everyone in this fort is nice.
Is it really okay to have a peaceful sleep? I didn't do anything today but I still feel tired for some reason.
I don’t know but this comfy feeling makes my eyes fall.
“Goodnight.”
Said Rin and cover my body with a blanket.
...
After the destruction of the Crystal dungeon. The demon king whose wondering the Crystal dungeon before came back to her demon castle.
Welcome by two maids they bow their heads and greeted.
“Welcome, my king.”
Then they opened the door for the demon king and entering the room. Waiting for 8 demon generals, these demon generals are the creatures personally picked by the demon king to protect her castle and also to attack her enemies.
Eriko, the demon girl that uses unique magic called blood manipulation. Is one of the generals. Currently looking happy smiling at the demon king.
“Why so happy?”
Asked demon army commander of 7th Dullan. He is a Dullahan, a fallen knight with his head chopped off.
“Nothing…”
Replied demon army commander of 6th Eriko.
“I’m always wondering how a headless rider able to see us. I mean you don’t have any eyes.”
Said the demon lord commander 3rd Silva. She’s a demon and one of the most dangerous ones. Currently while in the meeting room Silva was a basket of human hearts places at her table. Taking one heart and biting it like an ordinary snack.
“Eating while in a meeting is unacceptable!”
Said the demon lord Aid Pandora.
“The demon king never mentions that kind of rule. Is that a demon king decision or yours?”
Silva asked Pandora. Pandora remained silent and look eye to eye toward Silva.
The demon king arrived and huge pressure of dark magic is been released.
All of the demon army commanders became silent and behave themselves.
“What is the commotion about? I’m quite mad about the action of the Grandellia. To think that they will destroy that dungeon with the Pleiades is not expected. I didn’t acquire the power to destroy the world.”
Said the demon king.
“Even though you don’t acquire it, I believe your still the most powerful creature in this world.”
Said an elderly-looking man with a melancholic expression. His demon army commander 5th Drag.
“Even though your mad, you’re smiling my majesty.”
Said Pandora and serve tea to her majesty.
“Well, I have something to look forward to in the future…”
Said the demon king.
Everyone in the meeting room was shocked and surprised.
“Don’t tell me.”
“That’s right, a hero is already chosen. Finally, I will have some fun time on the battlefield once again. Soon a demon war will occur.”
Said Azalea the current demon king of the demon realm.
“Grandellia uses their Pleiades means that half of their magical power is been sacrificed. This may be the right time to invade that huge country. Demon king this is the right time to attack them!”
The one talking is the demon army commander of 8th Kuro. He is a man previously a human and joins the demon king arm to become the strongest but there is something that he can’t accept. He can’t accept the fact that his bowing his head to a woman. His sense of pride is so high and he always thinks his almighty.
The only reason the demon king appointed him is because of his destructing ability. He also has a unique ability only selected people to have.
“Don’t give me orders Kuro. You're just here to fulfill your task not to order me around.”
“Grrrr… I’m just thinking about the future of the demon realm.”
“Future of demon realm? Puff… Hahahahahaha… I never think that you like that. Don’t lie to your self you just want to gather attention. Besides you only good in defense skill, that’s the only reason your here. I’m reminding you, I have your heart and I can kill you anytime. Are you still going to oppose my way?”
The demon king said.
“Stop Kuro! Being angry with the demon king is useless just let her. It’s been many years and he never betrayed my expectation. She killed many heroes already many times and exceeded the previous demon king.”
Said Drag.
“That’s right Master Azalea is the best.”
Pandora said.
“It’s wrong, I’m the demon ling son why she became the demon king and not me. I inherited the blood and power of my father. Why She is the one crowned as the demon king?!”
Asked Kuro as he slams the table with his hand.
Demon king Azalea finished drinking her tea, she turns her gaze toward Kuro.
She snapped her hand and made Kuro explode. His blood and flesh in small pieces were scattered on the floor.
“Gross…”
Said, Pandora.
Azalea then revived Kuro with her magic.
“Cough! Cough! I’m alive…”
“Did you learn your lesson now?”
Asked Drag.
“This is unfair… The demon realm should be ruled by me.”
“Demon king is a title crown to the strongest. Demon king Azalea is crown as the demon king because she is the strongest. The strongest demon in the demon realm.”
“I’m quite kind today. I not going to do anything. Now let just go to our bed and sleep. I want to sleep straight three days.”
Said the demon king and stretched her body.
Pandora blushed and said:
“Can I sleep with you?”
“Definitely not.”
“Eh… I just want to do some checking…”
“Still not.”
“Eriko is happy.”
“Well, I got a new pet. I already tamed the crystal dragon from the crystal dungeon I wonder how many cities it can wipe with its power. Demon king can I do something. I wanted to attack a town near the pacific islands. I wanted to experiment Elesis Fort.”
Said Eriko and look toward the starry night.
An upcoming disaster for Mayu and her new friends.
