Chapter 228 – Ep.16 – Unfair Relationship (2)
————————————
“Wow – it’s already our third child!”
“I heard that humans give birth quickly and grow very quickly. It seems to be true. Shouldn’t we also follow suit in that direction? ”
The two panelists, who appear to be friendly with each other, are smiling and talking the whole time. What’s so funny is that when one person finishes speaking, the other person laughs and even wipes away their tears.
“No, but if you’re Delrin, I’m confident I’ll give birth in a month, right?”
“Phew! What does that mean~!! If the father of the child is pretty, does the child grow up quickly?”
This may sound quite unpleasant, but it produces a sound effect that makes everyone from the audience to the staff laugh. It feels like they are nudging me in the side telling me to laugh at this part.
“Honestly, isn’t that right? No, aren’t you so jealous of humans? They take care of my wife well and take care of the kids… “He’s the type of husband that would only appear in a novel, right?”
“Well, these days, if you write a novel like that, you get criticized!”
Another stupid laugh.
There is one panel where people are holding back laughter and a camera zooming in to show it.
“Anyway, next week’s broadcast will likely feature quite a bit of Ms. Rika, the Dellins’ third daughter. “I think there are many viewers who are looking forward to seeing Mr. Delrin having a hard time with his child.”
“The viewership ratings go up inexplicably in that area, right? I really don’t know why it’s going up…”
“You really don’t know? “You know everything, but you don’t know that one?”
“Ai, let’s all refrain from negative thoughts! A married man, a married man… Get caught!”
“Honestly, it’s more because he’s a married man-”
“You’re going crazy.”
Riko, who is dissatisfied with her demons’ lewd remarks, gives her slightly more swollen breasts to her daughter to quietly nurse her before and after giving birth to Rika.
“… Since I usually don’t remember things when I was young, I guess it’s okay to swear now. Huh?”
The swearing has decreased a lot compared to before and the tone of voice has become quite soft, but the swearing that comes out frequently seems to be quite troublesome.
It’s not that I don’t like her own way of life, but I can’t tolerate her swearing when her daughter grows up, so she needs to stop swearing from now on.
Honestly, it’s close to impossible to quit swearing, smoking, and drinking all at the same time, so when I really can’t stand it (or when I spend a night alone with Delrin), I have a cheat day as a reward for holding in for so long…
Anyway, how is it?
The only thing reflected in the mirror is a thief with dreadlocks who doesn’t even remind her of her childhood, and whose back alley suits her perfectly,
Only unblemished innocence can be seen in the small, quiet child she is holding.
With that alone, Riko can boost her own will.
As if he were different from Rico himself,
I don’t cry often,
I don’t fuss much,
When she sees her daughter smiling like an angel just by looking at her, she can’t stop smoking or drinking.
“… But really, it’s difficult to say this, but honestly, I think Karin and Karen are so cute, so I wonder if there’s a moment for Rika~? I also want to.”
“Ahaha! “I understand.”
On TV, an entertainment program featuring demons talking about the Delrin family is still going on. It’s not a nice thing to say, but everyone responds with laughter even to that meaningless comment.
“They say it’s age-appropriate charm, right? After all, kids are cute when they talk and run around.”
“Can I call you an idiot? Combined with all the seemingly innocent things, it’s really… I think this is why I’m getting married. Imagine having daughters like Karin and Karen welcoming you when you get home from work. Even waving my ears and tail!”
Sound effects. The voices of women who are so cute that they sound like they’re dying. Empathy and response.
“Honestly, looking at Kaede… I’m worried that it will be like that when I grow up… ”
“Fuha! Oh, did this really cross the line? Is this right?”
Laugh again. And, a brief video of Kaede.
There’s a video of me hugging my daughters and rubbing their cheeks, then they both run away, and I chase after them and hit my little toe on the threshold. A broadcast that only shows the scene of rolling around in pain, edited a couple more times.
The sound of laughter echoed throughout the studio, and some of the panelists laughed with tears in their eyes…
“Humans are really… Should we call it unspoiled purity? Because there is such a thing. Honestly, when I look at Kaede, she seems like my daughter. I want to buy you delicious food and take you to the playground… “
“That’s the charm, right? Looks like it fell off a bit?”
“It’s mom!”
Karin and Karen point to the screen on TV and laugh. Do you like it when your mom appears on TV, or are you laughing because it’s funny to see her rolling around?
“It’s mom!”
“Mom, Mohae! Mom came out!”
The two girls are giggling and rolling their legs, with their mother between them. Still, she pats her cheeks and tail excitedly and waits for her mother’s answer.
However, the heart of the mother is not the same as usual. Kaede’s eyes are observing all the images of demons on TV, forgetting even to blink.
“… “
It seems. Demons whose names I don’t even know are laughing as they talk about Kaede and her daughters.
Why does it feel like I’m being teased like this?
“You feel like a big baby, right? I still envy that too. Wouldn’t you be happy? There is nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about… ”
I can hear it. Although Kaede is not the type of person to attach meaning to each word, Kaede is obsessed with a few words that refer to herself and can hardly escape them.
Words with negative connotations directed at her keep lingering in her head without even going through her filtering. Because she keeps thinking about it, Kaede can’t even find something to say in response to her daughters.
“Hey.”
“Keheng?”
What broke her immersion was Riko sitting next to her, who had even taken off her top and was breastfeeding her.
“What are you doing? Don’t you clean up after the kids?”
When she came to her senses, the two daughters who had been shaking Kaede’s arms were now clinging to Riko’s side, staring at her younger brother.
“Ah, I’m sorry. Karin! Karen! “Don’t disturb her younger brother while he’s eating, but stay with this mother!”
“It’s cold!!!”
“Have fun… “
She pulls herself together and quickly hugs her children back to sit on the sofa, but they are already in silent protest with their cheeks puffed out. They seem to be quite annoyed with Kaede for not focusing on them even though it is play time.
“I won’t watch TV anymore!”
“I want to go for a walk!”
As she tried to get out of her arms and twisted her body around, the sofa smashed to the beat, as if she were pounding a rice cake.
Riko’s breasts trembling up and down in rhythm make her dissatisfied, no matter how calm and gentle she may be.
“Ah.”
As soon as Rika noticed Rika clenching her fists and starting her engine to cry, Riko pushed Kaede to her feet,
“Ah! Oops! “Don’t kick it!”
“Walk!!”
Kaede, who doesn’t even have hands left to hold her buttocks, can’t even resist in any way and just whines and heads toward the yard.
“Are you taking a walk?”
“It’s a walk!”
As the cool wind blew into their ears and noses, the two daughters were so excited that they smiled brightly,
“I did as I asked, so from now on I will listen to my mother carefully…” “
She wanted to run a little faster, so she quickly let go of Kaede’s arms and crossed her garden in one month.
“… Good luck.”
In some ways, it is an ordinary day.
It’s a daily routine with nothing unusual, and I’m just a little tired from playing with my two daughters as usual…
Nevertheless, Kaede
She keeps feeling strange.
What is the source of the persistent anxiety and sense of lack that has continued for the past few days?
Sensitive. Her five senses, which have become unnecessarily sensitive, only cause her stress.
“… “
No, now is the time to face the source of the discomfort you are hiding.
Kaede narrows her eyes and thinks as she glances at the flowers.
‘… It’s because of you and the children.’
I sigh.
The true and pretty West,
Children who won’t get sick if they put it in their eyes.
I feel anxious because I have it all and live like a dream.
This is not it.
If you become the strongest and most awesome adventurer,
Originally, I was supposed to achieve everything I wanted and live happily for a long time.
I have nothing to envy others.
I’m really happy. I’m happy.
I don’t even want to have anything more.
Rather, that is why Kaede’s heart fester.
I felt more at ease during my days as an adventurer and a wandering mercenary. Every time you defeated a strong enemy, your reputation grew, and when you defeated a villain, you were given a delicious meal and a warm bed.
Everyone was thankful to Kaede,
There was nothing to worry about.
A luxurious life where you can wander around as you wish.
A free-spirited life that seemed to rule the world with just a sword and a strong body.
Unlike that life,
The static daily life expressed by the two irresponsible words ‘happily ever after’ is full of boredom.
Daily life with children is happy enough, but
The thrill and excitement of days that were like the wind do not exist.
There seems to be only one wolf here, dying quietly and very slowly.
Like a wolf that hurts its leg and can no longer hunt,
Kaede feels as if she has a leash on her and is weakening day by day…
“… It’s you!”
“… I’m talking about it. Sigh… “
… All of my sharply forged senses bristle. Because of the unfamiliar voice that came between her daughters’ voices, Kaede got goosebumps all over her body and straightened her tail.
“Don’t do that, take it. It’s so delicious! “I’m giving it to you because you’re like a daughter, so try eating it later without your mom knowing.”
“Drinking?”
“Do you use Masit?”
Two demons appear. The demons, who appear to be around 30 years old in human terms, are waving something by sticking their hands through the gate made of light iron bars.
That’s so annoying. That something…
A feeling of discomfort comes over me as if it’s scratching my nerves.
I have to endure it, but it is difficult to endure. My head is pounding. Kaede’s heart trembles at that one small particle that her demons are trying to give her.
What is that?
What on earth is so unpleasant?
It felt as if she was throwing dirty vomit at her own daughters…
“Okay~! All the kids like it. Her sister will come again later and give her one. Uh? Ah, it’s Kaede! Hello! It’s nothing else, just a new baby candy from our company, and I brought some as samples… “
“Please go back. Right now.”
With her two daughters hidden behind her, Kaede treats her demons with her cold voice.
Karin and Karen blink in shock at hearing their mother’s voice for the first time, and the two demons stand back as if embarrassed and continue talking.
“Uh, over there… ? Mr. Kaede? You don’t seem to be in a good mood, but I’ll come back later. But we made it by taking into consideration Karin and her nutritional status… ?”
“Please go back. Please.”
There is even a hint of life in Kaede’s eyes.
Because of her incredible life, the surrounding air seems to freeze for a moment…
“What the fuck… “
The expressions on the two demons’ faces as they leave are not good. Looking at him walking away while muttering something, he seems quite disappointed by Kaede’s sharp threat.
The attitude of the two daughters looking up at Kaede is also quite passive, unlike usual. The two of them couldn’t look at her mother’s face, and just watched her while dancing in her pants.
“… “
However, Kaede,
She just stares beyond her front door for a long time, unable to open her fists.
And she thinks.
Why did I do that?
