A Happy Occasion and an Unlucky Affair

I did it

Her still-innocent face was lovely, so he spent some time staring at it. However

But he failed.

Glasses were magical things to the last. Sitting up, Chris covered her chest and looked in Serges direction. [1] Fairly certain this is just saying that her putting on glasses turned him on again.

Yeah, Im alright now. Ah, but

Ill be heading back to my room for a few minutes, lets talk in the dining hall.

Still blushing and hiding her chest, Chris spoke.

She just got more and more cute!

Oh come on, shes just too cute, gaaah!

Yesterday was his first time, so he did it normally. But what about the next time?

Thinking over his memories of the previous night caused a reaction, so he wasnt able to leave for a while.

And for some reason, Guinevere was with her.

And Chris face was bright went.

Gofu

And so it was decided that the two would receive Guineveres assistance.

Having returned to Jaeburg, Ria and Carla were visiting the demon town during the day.

At first, the demons were bewildered when the two flew down from the sky, but began to act as though nothing had happened soon after.

Then they stopped and asked a passing demon, they found out that the government-ish building was the place Asuka lived.

And so the two accompanied each other as they strolled through the demon town.

Impressive.

First off, it felt like it was a countryside that was still under development. There were quite a number of buildings in the government and shopping districts a bit away from the government office that were bigger than those in Manesh.

Most of all, the various races were all on good relations.

Itll be evening soon. Guess its time to head there?

Carla agreed, so after the two finished eating a light meal, they headed to the government building.

Same as the one in Manesh, it was made out of brick.

Unusual for her, she looked rather exhausted.

This is temporary? Its plenty imposing already though.

The two were guided to a place that looked like a terrace. They could see the towns citizens moving about in the evening from where they stood.

There are lots of nocturnal races among demons after all. Our Nul Jaeburg is a city that never sleeps.

So, what do you want to talk about?

I want to see the Demon King.

Incidentally, it felt like Ria had been told that before.

The Demon King had actually returned to the demon territory to maintain his robots after using them in that tussle in Falsas though.

Geh, he didnt say anything weird right? Those people and His Majesty are like cats and dogs.

Carla explained everything that had happened.

Asuka sighed.

They hadnt found out anything new in the end. Even when they told her about the humans victory at Falsas, she didnt look like it was much of a shock to her. Perhaps she already knew? There was a possibility that the humans would become more bullish from winning the Battle at Falsas, so when she informed the residents of the city to not leave for a while, they easily accepted the order.

It made them all the more certain that demons and humans shouldnt fight one another.

The two returned to Manesh once again after paying a quick visit to Vargas in Jaeburg.

He would be marrying Chris.

Although it could like they were currently in an emergency, it was exactly because of that emergency that it would happen.

People didnt know when they might die, so they didnt want to ignore the ones they loved.

After nodding like she was just wanting to nod for the sake of it, Ria started asking questions with a big smile on her face.

Contrasting the ever-blushing Chris, Serge responded with a sulky expression.

You know, I hate to bring it up right now, but

Chris father is still alive, so we have to get permission from him too.

Umm, actually, Otou-sama told me to give myself to Serge

You have the queens approval though, isnt that alright? Queen-sama.

Ria was throwing a tantrum about something that no one in this world would understand in the least.

What in the world are you dissatisfied about?

I hate humans that get to be happy when Im so busy.

But that girls so cute!

How about it, Chris? When Serge cheats on you, come on over to me. Were both girls, it wouldnt be cheating.

N-no, thats well, its normal for aristocrats to have several concubines I think?

Everyone immediately gave Serge a cold glare.

During the time theyd originally scheduled Serges peerage ceremony, this time, they were told of the allied forces defeat at Falsas.

And that the northern part of the empire had become demon territory.

We have to be the mediators between demons and humans.

Carla muttered indifferently.

However, the ditch separating humans and demons would not be so easily filled. It surely wouldnt be filled through war.

A minor collision occurred even in the vicinity of Jaeburg.

There were many races among the demons whose staple food was meet, so they required as much prey as possible. Theyd collided with human hunting areas.

That is, they thought that demons werent that scary.

That the nearby monsters were more of a threat than demons. This thought started to spread.

But finally, a certain day arrived.

The cause of it was them scrambling for the same prey, but it could also be said that it was their arrogance as humans desiring too much.

Ria couldnt leave this problem to be handled by Jaeburgs self-governing body. She had to lay down the punishment personally.
