Volume 1 - CH 2.14

Part 14

They had returned to the inn.

When they reported to the Adventurer’s Guild and had dinner, once everything was over, it was completely night.

Diablo sat in the room where only the light of the candles were swaying.

In truth, he was tired enough that he wanted to lie down on the bed but……

Since there was only one bed, he sat on the floor.

The only other person in the room was Shera.

She had sat down on the bed, and sometimes, she would intermittently look his way.

——What the heck is this?

He couldn’t handle being alone with a girl.

He was troubled.

Rem, who he could rely on at times like this, was called by a messenger from the Magician’s Guild and had gone to where Celes is.

It was probably about the matter with Galak.

Diablo’s group did not mention Galak’s name in their report but……To begin with, the receptionist knew that the one that commissioned the quest was Galak.

If the Magician’s Guild’s name was used without notifying the organization, it would naturally become a serious problem. There was probably an apology from Celes in regards to that.

How Rem would be the only one to go was a consideration from Diablo’s side.

If Diablo were to go, it would only make the other party needlessly afraid. How he had thrust away Warrior Emil and was judged to be outside of evaluation standards by the Adventurer’s Guild’s Guildmaster was already very well-known.

On top of that, there was his appearance and his speech and conduct.

Making an extremely apologetic face that looked like she were going to cry, Rem——

「Um……Since it seems like Celes would deeply apologize more than she would need to if Diablo were to go……I will go alone.」

went and said this to him.

——Well, since I’m poor with communication, that actually saves me.

However, Shera is acting weird. Please hurry up and come back, Rem.

Again, she looked at him.

Unable to endure it, Diablo raised his voice.

「Do you need something?」

「Hyah!? U, um……The snake was huge, wasn’t it!」

「Hn?」

Thinking for a bit, he realized.

「Ahh, the 《Spotted Snake》.」

「If the quest wasn’t a trap, we would have had to fight with that, right?」

「Luring it out with Rem’s Summoned Beast and bringing it down with my magic wasn’t that bad of a plan. Well, there was also the option of just freezing that area.」

The game’s Freezia wasn’t given a range of effect as vast as that.

Maybe it was because when he used magic, he imagined it using scientific knowledge. Or maybe it was because the game presented it in a moderated way.

By the time he noticed, Shera had come down from the bed and gotten closer.

「Yeah, yeah, Diablo, your magic sure was amazing!」

「Well, of course it was……There is something I learned a bit regarding levels. The people of this world live so that they won’t die. Without any pointless troubles, and as safe as possible.」

「Isn’t that how it normally is?」

「I made efficiency the maximum priority in order to quickly level up even if I died. That was the kind of world I was in.」

「Is that about the other world that Diablo came from?」

「Umu. That’s why a level difference has opened up. I still don’t know if it’s just the races that are weak, or if the monsters are also weak but……from the impression of when I tried using Freezia.」

Munyon.

Diablo’s hand pressed down on her pair of spheres.

You’ve got it wrong.

This was, when he tried to push Shera away……no, he was pushing Shera but, her shoulder……

That’s right, he had tried to push her shoulder.

Shera’s face went bright red.

「Ah……uah……!?」

「L, listen, you! Listen to me!」

「Yeah!?」

「I am a Demon King! Because of that, I don’t have, anything like companions!」

It would have been best to remove his hand as he was talking but……

The time from this morning was from above as she was lying down. Nevertheless, even though it was earth-shattering, right now it was from below. By going against gravity and lifting the bulge, the power of the sensation increased by two or three times and boasted an overwhelming presence.

In other words, his fingers were buried in flesh!

Even if it was from above the clothes!

「Fuahn.」

Shera’s nasal voice resounded in his brain.

——Ah, not good, not good! We were having a talk about companions!

「Are, are you listening? I have not chosen Rem!」

「Really!?」

「Of course it is! Don’t think that a Demon King will come under your will so easily!」

While he was saying that, he played with the bulge that was in his hand.

When he moved his fingers, the sensation also changed.

And then, Shera reacted with a twitch.

She didn’t get mad with a “You can’t, you can’t” like she did this morning.

「Ah……Nn……Yaa……」

「Err……Because I’m a Demon King……」

「Nku, fuan, sto……If, if you, touch there, I’ll get a……weird feeling……even though you shouldn’t do this……」

「W, weird feeling, you say!?」

「Yup……It kinda……feels heartrending.」

There was a grinding stimulus on his abdomen.

When he unintentionally lowered his gaze from the bulge that he was grabbing hold of, Shera was shaking her waist.

She was grinding as if to rub up against Diablo.

「Uoh!?」

「Hyau……If, if you do it that so strongly……ッ……Nku……Y, you can’t……」

「Sh, shoot! Did it hurt?」

He had intended to take out a considerable amount of strength but, his current self was level 150. He needed to pay scrupulous attention towards her sensitive parts.

——No, isn’t this different? To begin with, isn’t it bad of me to be stimulating her sensitive parts?

Shera wiped the tears that rose to the corner of her eye with her fingertip.

「U-un, it doesn’t hurt……It kind of, just made me feel a jolt……H, hey, could it be, Diablo, do you also like boobs?」

Suddenly, he felt a ice cold gaze.

It was a dreadful presence that he didn’t even feel from the monsters of the Man-Eating Forest.

Slowly, Diablo moved his eyes.

At the edge of his field of vision, there was an opened door.

「Ah……Uh……」

The air was intimidating enough that it was impossible for him to do his Demon King role play.

Still with a blank and spaced out facial expression, Shera also turned her head.

「Ah, it’s Rem~」

Near the single opened door, Rem, who for some reason had equipped hand covers furnished with claws on both hands, was standing there.

「……After all……I am……small!」

So she heard starting from that conversation.

After this, both Diablo and Shera earnestly apologized to Rem.
