CH 61

The final battle against the Demon King.

Although it may sound like an incredibly large scale battle when I say it like that, ...... the actual battle took place on a very small scale.

The warriors who gathered at the so-called "Demon King's Castle," the site of the decisive battle, for the purpose of "destroying the world" numbered less than 100, including both demons and humans.

But the people who have gathered here are all capable of fighting a thousand battles, and you can never be too careful.......

The reason why this happened is...... well, it's my fault.

I was wounded by all kinds of attacks, and once I even took an attack that almost killed me, but...... somehow I managed to muster up the energy to get up...... I stood in front of my opponent, the demon king, who would never stand up again.

“My first and biggest mistake would be ...... sending the "Queen of Demon Dream" to you...... I thought that a young man would easily get caught in a honey trap...... In contrast, the power of dreams was taken away from her, ...... and all of our strength was destroyed, ...... and this is the result."

"Haha...... Don't underestimate a pure boy."

Even though he had already suffered a mortal blow ...... and was fighting to the death, his tone was easygoing, as if he were talking to a longtime friend.

To him, ...... Amane gently placed the body of the woman who was the secretary and mage of the Demon King, who had just been fighting to the death ...... as her opponent, and she was already drawing her last breath.

The Demon King quietly embraces the woman's body...... with a satisfied expression.

"...... I'm sorry, hero from another world...... Originally, it had nothing to do with you guys...... but I pushed you with the last troublesome thing......"

The last troublesome thing ...... I know that it refers to their work, the large-scale magic that will destroy the world. ...... I had a guess as to what he was thinking about doing this.

"It's really, really unfortunate...... There is not a single person in this castle who holds a grudge against you...... on the contrary...... They are even grateful...... including "me"...... If anything ...... I have killed your important ones......"

"Somehow ...... last night's dream was strangely hard ...... "

I've been enjoying lucid dreaming as a game recently, but yesterday's dream was like looking at a strange hard past record, or rather.......

I vaguely understand that it happened after the "One Week of Newlywed Life" that I had seen before.

With a yawn, I went down to the first floor and found the rest of my family ......, my parents and sister, already at the table.

Come to think of it, it's been a long time since my brother moved to Tokyo and stopped sitting at the dinner table. ......

As I was feeling a bit nostalgic, thinking that I must be getting used to the larger dining table, Yumeka suddenly said.

"Good morning~ Onii-chan. If you don't eat quickly, you'll be late, okay?"

"......Wha?"

I don't know what she was talking about, and I ask her back, but for some reason my mother agrees with Yumeka's opinion.

"She's right, I'm not really impressed with making a girl wait!"

"???"

The women were rushing me to eat quickly, though I couldn't understand what they were saying.

But I thought I was the only one who didn't understand the reason, and my father, who was reading the newspaper, also looked puzzled.

"Oi oi, don't rush him too much ...... Eating too fast is bad for the body ........"

"Dad, shut up! This is for onii-chan's sake!"

"Right! We're on the verge of realizing our long-cherished dream!!"

"Ah, yes...... I'm sorry...... "

The momentum of the ladies instantly raised Dad's white flag.

No, okay...... You don't have to make a face like "I'm sorry I can't help you".

At a time like this, you shouldn't go against a woman...... I felt a little sad about the lesson my father taught me.
