Is this a Give Me Your Daughter Situation?
When I woke up, I was in my room.
Sylvie was holding my hand and sleeping next to me on the bed. And on the other side was Ayako, who was asleep while sitting on a chair.
"Are you awake, Danna-sama?"
It was Maria who called out to me quietly. Maria gently stroked Sylvie's head, and then she stroked mine as well.
"How long did I sleep?"
"You collapsed this morning, and now it's just past dinner, so it's been about half a day.''
"What about the old man?"
"Mondo-sama is resting in the guest room. Anyway... the two of you should thank Sylvie-chan properly. It was Sylvie-chan's repeated [High Heal] that saved your life from a truly critical situation......"
I stared at Sylvie sleeping next to me. Apparently, she used [Recovery Magic] until she was on the verge of running out of mana, and although she was asleep, her face looked a little pale.
I gently stroked Sylvie's head and kissed her cheek.
"Thank you, Sylvie."
Maria quietly told me the details.
After old man Mondo and I stabbed each other, Midori and Hi, who were inside me, hurriedly carried me and old man Mondo and returned to the mansion.
Then Sylvie, who saw the condition of me and old man Mondo, hurriedly used [High Heal] on us.
My condition was worse than the old man, and it seemed like she was ready to use the [Saint]'s unique skill [Resurrection].
Oi, oi... [Resurrection] is for the dead.
I mean, I was in such a critical condition, but I never expected that the Demon King... no, now the Demon God, me, would be driven to that extent...
After all, that old man is not an ordinary person...
I first apologized to Maria for making her worry, and told her that I would apologize to everyone tomorrow morning, then went back to sleep.
When I woke up in the morning, Sylvie was already awake, so I first apologized and thanked her.
"I'm sorry for making you worry, Sylvie. Also, thank you for doing your best for me and the old man."
"Daddy's an idiot... everyone was worried..."
With a slightly swollen face, Sylvie said that and quickly ran towards the dining room. When I followed, the family was all there, and old man Mondo was also there.
Ayako was next to the old man Mondo. It seems like she's also keeping an eye on the old man to make sure he doesn't mess with the family.
"I'm sorry, everyone. It seems like I've caused you worry again..."
"I'm sorry for what I did, too. I too had blood rushing to my head and couldn't help myself. I'm really sorry. Also, thank you, Sylvie?"
Because I apologized, old man Mondo also apologized to the family.
"Light, are you seriously planning to marry my daughter?"
After the meal was over, the old man Mondo opened his mouth.
"I will. Ayako likes me, so I'll have to respond to that."
"You... How can you say that after having so many women..."
The old man rested his chin on his hand with an exasperated expression and let out a sigh.
"Since this is the time, I'll tell the old man everything openly. Old man, do you know what kind of Demon King I am?"
"Ah? Why all of a sudden? I'm not interested in the Demon King's second name, unfortunately.''
"My second name is [Lust]. And I'm not a human. I'm an incubus."
The old man made a face like he was biting a bitter bug.
"Keh! No wonder Ayako has become prettier. Does that mean you held my daughter?..."
The old man covered his face with both hands with an indescribable expression. Ayako was shivering in embarrassment next to him, but she too made up her mind and turned to the old man and called out to him.
"F-Father. I'm almost 40 now! Even without Father's permission, I intend to stay with Light-dono!"
Old man Mondo looked up and stared at Ayako's face, then let out another sigh.
"Keh... Half the people tend to skip things in advance. But... well... I guess it can't be helped if you marry before you turn into a hag. I don't know. Do whatever you like."
This old man usually hides his embarrassment when he curses. I know this from the days I spent training with this old man.
Ayako must have remembered that too. The words themselves don't make her happy, but they are an acknowledgment of our relationship. Ayako's face broke into tears when she realized this.
"Tsk… I can’t believe even your facial expressions are starting to resemble her…"
The old man looked at Ayako from the side and muttered, but his voice was drowned out by the cheers of the surrounding family members.
