Chapter 288 "Dragon King" Is Not A Title That Can Be Taken Lightly!

—–

Lucifer took a little while, but came back with actual breakfast he cooked himself, he bought some breakfast from the Inn Lady, who sells breakfast for a person each day, there was a nice bechamel soup, it had small chunks of pork on it, and was very creamy and tasty, with small pieces of potatoes and carrot as well! Wow…

And then there was some bread, it was a bit hard, but not too hard, and it was pretty good if dipped into the bechamel stew, I loved it. They also gave a small piece of butter, a small block of cheese, and a cup of hot milk for breakfast, that was it, it wasn’t as much as in other places, as this was a very small Inn, but for the price of 7 coppers, it was a decent meal that would be fulfilling enough for anybody that would come to spend a night in this Inn and would feel hungry the next day in the morning.

“The lady was very nice, she said I was quite handsome and gave me an extra piece of bread and some strawberries jam.” Said Lucifer. “Do you want some, Maria?” Lucifer handsomely offered me jam and more bread, and I couldn’t help but accept.

?[0)??? “Thank you! I wanted something sweet…” I said happily, as I covered the piece of toast with some jam, and ate it up with some of the warm milk which had a small amount of honey on it to sweeten it a bit. The crunchiness of the toast, the delicious sweetness, and the citric flavor of the strawberries, all combined with the creamy and honey-sweetened milk which was very warm combined into a delicious breakfast.

“Wow, this is good…” I said.

“It is just some brad with jam…” Sighed Lucifer. “You really find everything delicious, don’t you?” He said as he looked at the two girls at me side eating up and conversing.

“A-Anyways, what did you two did to Maria?” He asked angrily. “I bet you did… a lot of lewd things while I was not here!”

Eh? He got all angry out of nowhere now! Are men just as confusing to understand as women? Wait, so both genders are confusing to understand?! Amazing, so this is the truth that a bisexual person is capable of comprehending without stupid gender bias!

“W-We were playing around, that’s it! Don’t get angry now…” Said Partner. “We did some stuff that girls do.” Partner seemed unwilling to reveal the truth.

“Don’t worry Lucifer, we didn’t do anything overboard!” Said Emeraldine while nodding and crossing her arms somewhat proudly. What did she even meant by this?

“Sigh…” Lucifer sighed as he decided to just ignore what happened. “Anyways, now that you two have calmed your horniness, it would be nice to discuss what’ll we do now, the Duchess must be waiting for us, isn’t it?”

“Yeah, I am planning in going there right away after we finish breakfast.” I said. “I owe her quite a lot, and she also could help me at finding more about my past when I was alive, alongside finding the location of my brother and my auntie, who is supposedly taking care of him somewhere…”

“Oh, I see… But what about the problems in this duchy? The drugged people are quite worrisome, are you ignoring that?” He asked.

“Of course not! She’ll probably ask me to help her resolve this stuff first, and if possible, we could find the ones behind it, I bet it is the same stupid Vampires, or some sort of organization that serves them, they’re really the mafia of this entire nation.” I sighed.

“Hm, okay… That’s better, I am glad you’re willing to help, because I also wanted to help and see what’s going on in here.” Said Lucifer. “I also got the bad feelings about this, the drugs are not normal, they’re probably using extracted materials from the Fragment of the Evil God they stole from your family, most likely…” Lucifer looked at me with a lot of conviction, he seemed to be ready to tackle down this problem and search for the one behind this with me.

“I think there might be some relation, yeah…” Said Emeraldine. “Ah, I feel like we should hurry up in that case… I didn’t like dhow clingy that Duchess was with Maria, but I guess there’s no helping it, she’s a good person that helped us out in there too…”

“Yeah, I guess she’s a nice person unlike the guy before her, her uncle or something.” Said Partner. “That guy really sucked.”

“Well, he maintained the entire duchy and was a hard worker, but yeah, that didn’t meant I wouldn’t kill him after the shit he did to me.” I said. “…And my family, of course. That’s unforgivable.”

“I agree. Now, let’s get going.” Said Lucifer, standing up. We were already done with the breakfast by now, so we brought back the things to the Inn Lady and made our way out of the Inn. Of course, we took a bath beforehand, individually! Even though the girls were trying to get inside of the bathroom when I was taking one.

As we were about to walk outside, I stopped Lucifer who seemed as serious as always, grabbing his coat tightly and looking at him while blushing a bit.

“Hm? W-What is it?” He asked.

“Where’s my kiss?” I asked while pouting.

“K-Kiss? Ah… W-Well…” Said Lucifer, as he seemed to force himself to ignore the two girls staring at him expressionlessly and grumpily, and he gave me a lovely kiss.

“Fufu, you got the title of my husband so you better give me one like this every morning~” I said rather cheekily.

“Y-You’re getting a bit cocky…” He said while blushing, trying to act as if he was fine, but he was really embarrassed. He’s so cute, hehe. “I-I am a Dragon after all, the Dragon King, in fact. So don’t get… ahead of yourself…”

“Alright, my king! Hahah.” I giggled.

“It is not a title that can be taken lightly…!” He complained while crossing his arms and getting grumpy again.
