Dark Elf Village Again
"Master. Since there is teleportation, once you go to the royal capital, you can come back right away, right? Why are we having such a farewell conversation?"
Ginko says it very calmly, but formally speaking, I won't be in the Frontier Count's territory for the three years I attend the academy. This means that officially, Rain and I will be living apart from Maria.
"I can come back soon, but for the time being I'll be living in the royal capital. That's the way it's going to be, isn't it?"
Lida seemed to notice at this point and asked me a question.
"Ah... Light. What should you do about your deal with McQueen-san? Are you going to stop doing business with him for the three years you attend the academy?"
I was torn there. I couldn't think of a better way, so I wanted to ask everyone's opinions.
"Actually, that's what I'm worried about. I don't want to stop doing business with McQueen-san. I don't think I'll be able to work properly for the three years I'll be at the academy. But I'd like to keep my business with McQueen-san as a source of income, if possible."
Everyone asked, tilting their heads slightly.
"Danna-sama? Are you still going to work? I think you've saved up a lot of money since we came to this city...?"
"Mother is right. It's strange to work while attending the academy even though you have enough money. I think it's better to take three years off from work."
"Come to think of it, McQueen-san said that the deal with Light is quite expensive. Even though you make money once a year, you also work elsewhere, right? How much money do you have?"
It's not about the money. I have a tendency to feel restless unless I'm doing something.
"I don't feel at ease unless I'm working. Besides, I want my family to have luxuries."
For some reason, Maria answered with a slightly puzzled look on her face.
"Danna-sama, we have enough luxury."
"That's right. Onii-sama is giving us too much."
"Certainly. If we're receiving something, how can I say...... his love is heavy? I feel like it's too heavy."
After Maria, Rain and Lida also started retorting at me.
Eh... I'm doing it for a good cause, but... love is heavy...
"I'm going to work! This is non-negotiable."
I sulked a little at the comments. The three of them looked at me with troubled faces that were saying, it couldn't be helped.
"I understand. But please don't push yourself too hard."
"Onii-sama… you really like work..."
"Why are you so serious...?"
After a lot of criticism, I decided to accept Lida's suggestion, I'll tell McQueen-san about the transfer magic and continue doing business with him.
The next day, after we had finished talking about the academy, I visited the dark elf village. I also brought Lida and Maria with me today for the purpose of meeting them.
"It's been a long time, Demon King-sama. What can I do for you today? With your companions..."
The village chief appeared with a big smile on his face. It's kind of scary.
"Ah... It's been a long time, village chief. These two are my family members, Lida and Maria. They're like my sister and mother. Also, I've come to talk to the village chief today. Is that okay?"
"I see. I understand. I will show you to my tent."
Then, I told the village chief that I wanted to protect the dark elves and that I wanted them to become residents of the dungeon.
The village chief was a little confused before speaking.
"Are you sure? Ah, no, we are very grateful for your protection. Besides, a dungeon is a luxurious environment for us. However, if you protect us, it means that we are enemies with one of the demon kings in the demon territory. Besides, we don't have enough to repay Light-sama."
At this point, Rain interjected.
"Onii-sama. There's something you haven't told him and something you'd like to ask them to do, right?"
No, that's... when I was about to say it, Ginko started to speak.
"Dark Elf Village Chief. Actually, I need to consult with you regarding Master. Please listen."
Ginko said that I was having trouble awakening as an incubus, and that she wanted him to lend me the help of the dark elves. Of course, she said I would be holding them...
"I see... That's what I wish for. In fact, ever since then, most of the people have asked to be held by the Demon King-sama... If that comes true, please use them as much as you like. But then, it's better for us. The blessing is too great... I don't know how I can repay you..."
"Ah, no, it's okay as long as I can hold a dark elf woman. Let's think about everything else later...?"
"How merciful... I, loyalty to Light-sama..."
This village chief is really too formal and I don't like it...
After finishing our conversation, I showed Lida and Maria around the village before heading home. I felt that everyone's faces seemed brighter than before. Well, we found Shiru-chan, and the number of orcs has decreased, so it's safer now. Yep.
"Actually, ever since Light-sama's teachings permeated the village, the relationships between the married couples in the village have improved. Everyone has become brighter. And every night, they confirm their love for each other. Just like that..."
When I looked at the tip of the village chief's finger, I could see a man and a woman writhing mysteriously in the shadow of a tree, albeit from a distance.
You are kidding... and, you, village chief! Even if you notice it, leave it alone! It lacked delicacy!
I held my head in my hands... Really, this village...
