Chapter 74: Like Darkling

Like Darkling

Hah.

When I woke up, I had already been lying down in my bed.

When I looked at the closed window, I saw the sunlight passing by the curtain.

It seems I woke up at noon.

Something like this happened before

It happened once before When I killed those human soldiers as my first kill. I tend to wake up around this time when I fall asleep due to exhaustion.

Five skulls were enshrined on the shelf at the corner of the room. They were sent to me on my request since I didn't want them to be used by the demon race as undead even after their death.

And to watch me from hell after their death. I offered a prayer again to their bones that became material for my spear which leaned on the wall beside my bed.

Thank you And my deepest apologies!

Kuu~ Kuu~

Liliana was breathing calmly as she slept by my side. Moreover, even Ante, who transformed into her human form, was also sleeping beside Liliana while scratching her stomach.

Maybe she wanted to indulge herself like a lower life form without returning inside my body. This fella really knows how to enjoy the human body to the fullest.

I slipped out quietly from the bed to not awaken both of them. Liliana wriggled around, maybe searching for my warmth before nesting on Ante's body and breathing calmly as if she found her safe haven again. Ante groaned in pain before she went to sleep again as Liliana embraced her like some sort of hug pillow.

Uhm. They're getting along beautifully

Liliana was sleeping peacefully. It was as if she felt relieved in my presence. Her current figure was completely unbelievable considering their treatment so far.

Even if this peace was the result of sealing her true ego, the temporary peace she attained only after she was treated like a pet I could only pray that her broken heart would get its' deserved respite.

Have you woke up?

When I left the room, Sofia, who was sitting in the chair beside the door of my room while reading the book in her hand, called out to me.

Yeah. Can you prepare a light meal and some beverage for me? Well, just prepare sandwich for the light meal.

Understood.

Sofia shut her book with a snap and went to order the low-rank employee to prepare my snack.

Ah right. Please prepare a basket to bring them too. Let's eat them somewhere outside of the castle.

In this broad daylight? Okay, I understand.

Sofia seems to be puzzled upon hearing my request. You might not understand this but, I love basking under the sunlight

And this was a rare opportunity to stroll during the day. I couldn't bear to wake up the two girls who were still fast asleep in my room, so I might as well have a stroll for a bit and had a light meal like a picnic.

Sofia returned after I waited for a while.

She brought Lyla, clad in maid uniform, with her.

Ah Ehehe Here you go, the beverage and sandwich

Said Lyla as she offered the basket with her usual forced smile pasted on her face.

Are you okay? Aren't you supposed to sleep around this time?

Slightly startled, I received the basket from her. I mean, why was Lyla working as a maid in this time slot?

Yes, it's, okay Uhm, rather, my condition is at its peak Thanks to my light attribute.

Lyla replied while lowering her face a bit, smiling a masochistic smile.

She's added into the day time slot since she often suffered from insomnia during the day. And since the person herself wished for it, she felt restless unless she was doing something after all

Sofia replied while shrugging her shoulders lightly.

I see Well you don't actually have to do anything, all you need to do is studying properly you know?

A, hi! Uhm, I also Doing my best in my study, and I'm really grateful for it, but as expected, studying non-stop without doing anything is a bit

Lyla shook her head while talking rapidly as if she was in a hurry.

Aah, come to think of it No matter how important it was, no one liked studying around the clock I understood her feelings, so I really couldn't say anything about that.

The boss of the undead, Enma the lich.

Aah! So you remember me, what a relief. I'm was going to cry for real if you forgot about me you know.

Enma wiggled around and sat quietly by my side. Sofia, who guessed Enma's identity lowered her stance immediately.

Lyla's face was still twitching non-stop. From her perspective as a dragon with light attribute, a lump of muddy, cursed darkness attribute like Enma might be something akin to shi*t Yup, a walking shi*t.

Not to mention that this very same boss of the undead was the one who guarded the incubation place of the dragon race.

Do you have a business with me?

Eh. Aren't you the one who should've business with me for coming to this place at this time!?

Said Enma as her eyes locked into mine.

Dammit, I had no idea if she was joking or telling the truth I couldn't deal with her, she was all over the place.

No, it's just a coincidence that I came to this place

You won't take my bait eh. Still, I'm still glad to be able to meet you even for no reason, Jil-kun.

Jil-kun?

Jilbagias is too long after all. Can I just shorten it?

No way, rather, since when did we become that intimate?

Uhm, this person is the demon prince though.

Sofia offered candid advice to Enma who acted overly familiar with me.

Even if he's a demon prince, he's still a viscount you know? And I, am a cou~nt. Just barely above him in terms of status.

Enma pouted ergo, her doll-like head turned around before smiling at me.

Oh right, congratulation on your appointment as a viscount!

Ah, yeah, you're welcome

Stop! Please don't say that in front of the girl who became the reason for my promotion!!

Shall I give you some sort of gift? Ah, I'll kneel before you and lick your feet once your peerage surpasses mine.

Stop, no one wished for that!!

Stop!! This kind of conversation was bad for Lyla's education!!

Noo, don't look at me with such eyes! Please don't destroy the relationship of trust that just began you damn lich!! I'm gonna purify you one of these days for sure!!!

Ahaha, just kidding. That matter aside, I've noticed it just now but Jil-kun, your magical power should be that of darkness attribute.

Ah, yes

I nodded due to her overwhelming pressure. Seriously, how could this woman act overly familiar with me Even though this was our second time meeting by coincidence?

Then I've a suitable gift to celebrate your promotion.

Said Enma With a huge grin pasted on her face.

It's a rare chance after all, that's why I'm willing to teach you.

And whispered into my ears.

My necromancy.
