The Demon King of Lust's Cheating Slow Life in Another World (WN): Chapter 92

 

Things Remembered from Feeling Unwell

I've been feeling unwell lately.

No, I don't mean physical condition, but my magical condition. It's kind of... hard to describe, but I'd say it's tingling... or it's itching...

Seriously, I have an unpleasant feeling.

The release of mana fluctuates wildly along with it. This seemed to be happening without me noticing it, and I was asked by Rain, [Today's Onii-sama is leaking a tremendous amount of light magic. What's wrong?] I didn't realize it until Rain asked me.

No wonder Maria and Rain's skin is so smooth and shiny these days. My light magic is definitely affecting them.

And they know why I release light magic. So, they try to honey-trap me at every opportunity.

Yes, when I try to suppress my sexual excitement, it seems like a large amount of light magic is released...

I haven't been showing up at the Adventurer's Guild recently, thinking it must be mental exhaustion from goblin hell.

The guild master asked me to join the expeditionary force to support other territories, but I declined.

I don't want to have anything to do with goblins anymore. Besides, if it was an expedition, there was a possibility that Maria would be left alone.

Rain and I want to heal the emotional wounds we suffered from the goblins. I want to be completely pampered by Maria. Goblins had already become a trauma for me.

When I told the guild master about this, he grudgingly admitted it.

Although we didn't show our faces, we know a lot about the city and from conversations with our neighbors.

The city was deserted because adventurers and knights had gone out in large numbers. Those who remained in the city were adventurers and knights who had gone to the goblin's nest earlier, a party of adventurers recognized by the guild master as a defensive force, and low-ranked adventurers who were not suited for expeditions.

It is said that it has become much quieter outside the city, and the goblin hordes have not been seen recently. The only thing that seems to be happening now is that there are requests to take down goblins who have escaped to other territories. I heard all this from my neighbors.

I didn't show my face to the Adventurer's Guild, but I did show my face to other guilds.

I was making items for selling at the Alchemy and Apothecary Guilds, and I was also making items requested by the Blacksmith Guild, since it was about time for McQueen-san to come, I was also making items to sell to others.

However, perhaps because of my health condition, I was not able to produce stable products.

It was not that the quality of the products declined, but the quality was not consistent, with some products being too high quality and others being niche items.

I was in a cold sweat when I was told that there was a high-potion mixed in with the items I brought to the Apothecary Guild.

I had never had such a hard time with magic before, so I was in a panic. In order to calm down a little, I decided to take a moderate break from my non-adventuring work.

In such a way, I worked moderately and was in good shape, but……

Before I knew it, the time had passed when McQueen-san, who visits every year, had come.

"Onii-sama, I understand that you are worried, but a large amount of mana is leaking out. Are you thinking about Lida Onee-sama when it occasionally turns into light magic?"

It seems that my mana speaks eloquently...

I never thought that my mana would change depending on my feelings...

Two weeks after spending such days, McQueen-san finally visited the city.

Apparently, it was delayed this year due to a change in route.

"We had talked about it since last year and we decided that the road from the Baron's territory along the [Demon Forest] was too dangerous, so we took a safer route, albeit a long way around."

That's what Lida told me.

This year I was able to spend some time with Lida.

At that time, Maria and Rain were telling Lida about my recent symptoms.

"It's a reaction to the growth spurt. It's a symptom that is often seen in people who have strong mana or have a lot of mana. But it is more common in elves and demons than in humans."

She said this jokingly.

"I was born and raised human."

I tried to say so, but......

Huh? Am I human?

Ah! I'm an incubus!
