142 - - The Brave Beats the Yakimochi by His Brother

After I reincarnated Dantalion.

I returned with Elise and the others to the royal encampment.

The Royalists are encamped at the back of the castle on the first floor.

"Elise!　Thank God, brother, you made it in time: ......"

Gaius, a beautiful blond boy, came running toward us.

But he stiffens on the way.

"Master Julius, ...... I can walk now. Please put me down.

In my arms, Dantalion is turning red.

I'm carrying him like a princess.

"But you can't use flight magic now that you've lost your demon powers, can you?

"Yes, that's true, but ...... if Gaius-sama sees me like this ...... oh."

"Oh, brother. I'm back."

"............"

Elise and I break the flight spell and head for my brother.

"But, Gaius... it's not like that. It's a misunderstanding."

Dantalion is panicking.

Gaius, on the other hand, remained frozen.

"Oh no, I think we're in for a fight!"

"...... Sakura, shut up."

Behind his brother, Sakura, who was defending the position, giggles.

Gaius looks at me and Dantalion.

"...... why is Dantalion here?"

"Oh, it's a long story, but Dantalion is now my wife."

"Yoo, Julius-sama!　Please choose your words more carefully!　You're hurting Master Gaius!"

"Well, where's the harm in that?　Hey, little brother."

The brother was gritting his teeth, but Gaius sighed deeply.

"But, Master Gaius, there is a deeper reason for this.

"Oh, yeah, ...... it's okay. I could almost tell something was wrong, and I know you're super insensitive.

"Huh?　I feel like my brother's dissing me.

"It's just your imagination."

Somewhat.

Inside the royal encampment.

The camp looks like a storehouse.

It is surrounded by layers of wards.

Sakura's demons were deployed for defense.

The following is a brief account of the battle between Dantalion and Historia.

"Dantalion has lost his demon power. We can't throw him out into the castle in this state. I'm going to leave him in the camp until he joins his friends.

Now that she has lost the power of the Great Demon, she is as good as an ordinary person who has had no training.

"I see... As expected of Julius-han. I see...you're a kind man who worries about his rivals."

Dantalion shrugs his shoulders and bows his head.

"I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you all. ......"

"Yeah. I'm glad you're okay."

"Really, really!　I'm so glad you're here now, Mr. Dantalion!"

"Both of you can go to ......."

Dantalion cries as he is comforted by the women's team.

Gaius, on the other hand, has a complicated look on his face.

"What's wrong, you look funny."

"......No, I want to be honestly happy, but I can't be honestly happy."

"You're so difficult to talk to sometimes..."

"So ...... brother. I know you helped her. But why is Dantalion your wife?"

My brother puffs out his cheeks.

He stomps on my foot and grinds on it.

"Yeah, because he asked me to be his wife when I'm born again.

"What's that? Do you say that to anyone?　If someone asked me to marry him, I would do it to anyone, right?"

"What, are you mad at me?"

"I'm not mad!　No way!"

I knew he was angry.

Well, I don't know what he's mad about.

"Anyway, why does your brother always bring new women so soon? You should take better care of the people closest to you.　

"I'm trying to take care of everybody."

"Then take better care of me too ......."

He puffs out his cheeks in a sulk.

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I reply.

"I care about you, too, you know.

What do you mean by "[also]"? You should take care of your own brother first and foremost, because he's your immediate family."

"Well, ......, of course. I'm sorry. I made a promise to marry you without your knowledge."

Maybe that's what he's upset about.

Marriage is not something you can just go ahead with without the approval of your family.

Then wait a minute. Dantalion!　What's wrong?"

A dark-haired beauty was lying sprawled out on the floor.

She was smiling sloppily and her nose was bleeding.

"What are you doing?　Are you all right, buddy?"

I rouse her and give her a little push.

"Ha!　I'm sorry, my brain crashed from all the intense flirting. ......"

"Flirting?　Did I do that?"

Both Elise and Sakura are giggling.

"Well, whatever. Come on, come on. Let me introduce you to my brother.

"Oh, wait a minute, you're not even wearing makeup ......."

"Oh, you don't need that. You're beautiful enough. Here we go."

I pull Dantalion's arm and head for my brother.

She is downcast, blushing to the tips of her ears.

"............"

Gaius is grinding his teeth.

"So, this is my wife, Dantalion. Nice to meet you."

"...... Yo!"

Gaius says with an inorganic expression.

"Oh, um, ...... Mr. Gaius. I have no intention of interfering in any way with your relationship. I'm sure you know what you're getting into."

Dantalion looks apologetic.

But Gaius sees this and sighs.

"Don't worry about the minutes."

"But ......"

"Now that we're here, you're my family too. You don't have to be so modest."

"Mr. Gaius. ......"

Gaius smiles and says to Dantalion.

"I'm happy for you," he says.

"Yes. ......"

Dantalion cries, "Gusugusugusugusugusugusugusugusugusugusugusu," Dantalion says.

"Brother!"

"Oh."

"Oh,oh...... congratulations,congratulations,congratulations......"

Gaius congratulated me with some kind of gnashing of teeth.

"Oh, thank you. I'm glad you approve."

"......Yes, yes. Well, yeah. That's great. Yeah. Huh. ........................"

Gaius crouches down on the spot as if he were suddenly overcome with exhaustion.

"Gaius-sama, don't worry. I will try to be an air-headed wife!

"Thanks, take good care of this super insensitive idiot brother of mine."

Yes, sir!　I will support Master Julius and Master Gaius until my last breath!"

I don't know, but I'm glad to hear that my brother approves.

I'll have to report this to my brother-in-law (Michael) later.
