Chapter 304

I opened the second door and entered.

There's a reason why Uncle Luciferd recommended her.

With black hair and black eyes like Mom (Shizuko)... This might be what they mean by an unparalleled beauty.

"Um... My name is Serena."

"It's Daji!"

I feel like I've sensed this person's presence somewhere before.

Oh right, that time when she was hiding and watching me...

But...

"Um, did I do something?"

"You haven't done anything... but I'm not enthusiastic about this matchmaking!"

"I see... Am I disliked?"

"Why are you making that kind of face... In the first place, if you really wanted to, you could easily have a wild night with me. If you want beautiful women, you could say 'Give me all the beautiful women in this world, or else I'll destroy it' and every beautiful woman in the world would become yours. So why are you bothering with this foolish matchmaking... If you want me, I'll either have to become yours or be killed... Or is there any meaning in this matchmaking?"

Um, I don't understand what she's saying.

"Um... I'm just a kid, so I don't really understand. But is it fun?"

"Of course it's fun, isn't it? The country and the world are yours... There's nothing you can't do, it's truly a paradise on earth."

"Is that so? I see... I'm just a child, so I'm not good at explaining, please forgive me."

"What are you trying to say?"

"Certainly, I could threaten you, Daji-san and have you by my side, as well as gather beautiful women from all over the world to serve me... However, Daji-san by my side always looks sad and never smiles. The other women probably wouldn't smile either... Even if I obtain such things, it wouldn't be enjoyable, right?"

"If they don't smile, then kill them... Just make them smile forcibly!"

"But that would be a fake smile, right? I don't want that kind of thing."

"Well then, what are you planning to do? What will you do if I become your wife?"

"I see... First, I will make you feel good." Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

"Hmph, a perverted brat trying to act seductive, but in the end, you're just an ordinary person... I am experienced. But if you want to embrace me——"

"The bags contain a lot of meat, and since they are my homemade storage bags, time stops inside them. You can always have fresh meat! I obtained precious monster meat by defeating rebel forces in the demon country with permission from Uncle Luciferd. It's enough food to last for about a year, even for a dragon."

"W-W-What is this?"

"And, the candies are Blood Jewel Candies made from my blood... I'll give them to you as a present... This arranged marriage is a failure, right...? Am I scary? It's okay, I'll reject it myself..."

Scary... I can somehow sense that feeling.

"Wait... It's certainly scary, but is it okay if I don't return this?"

"Yes, it's a gift!"

"You're really too kind... Well, I guess I'll become your wife, pretending I'm marrying a demon!"

"Really?"

"If you keep asking, I might change my mind! I'll become your wife!"

"Thank you."

"Well then, from now on, I suppose you're my husband... But then, you should go, there must be something else waiting."

"Yes."

Even though she was scared... I don't really understand.

Daji's POV

He's truly a child, so innocent...

Even through force, even by trading that sacred artifact, it would have been easy for him to marry me...

But still, what can I do...

Sigh~ I couldn't possibly refuse after he lined up everything I wanted and said it's free...

Honestly, there's no other choice, because I'm not a beggar after all.

I don't want to be blessed... There's nothing I can use to trade for those things, except for myself.

Hello, we have a new project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord. However, for some reason, the human-demon war has resumed and will take place in the MC's original world. The MC, unaware of this, meets a Saint from that world and asks them to join the war. But what does the MC say? They refuse. Is it because their love was rejected by the princess when they adventured together in the past or are they simply fed up? And are the MC will join later?
