Chapter 312 – Chapter 30 – What’s Coming
The owner of this mansion was a huge family that occupied a member of society with Belarus.
However, now it was clean, after all traces of it had been erased.
And now, it has become a kind of villa where the demon king resides for a while.
“I still can’t believe it. I really thought it would all be over in a matter of months, not years.”
“It wasn’t that they were strong, they just looked strong. I dug into the weak point and didn’t let it go, biting it off and waiting for the blood to flow.”
“Should I say cold? Still, they are all comrades who fought alongside you in the past.”
“My comrades will be with me, and those who have been wary of me will try to fight just like the human nobles. Who would be happy to hear that they are coming with demons who consider the one they have fared the most terrible? Thanks to that, I was able to organize everything without thinking.”
Actually, thanks to previous episodes, I knew which one was a burden and which one was a gift.
There was no need to mention that part, so it was Klaus who skipped it.
I had told the secret of regression several times before, but it never brought about good results, so I never said anything about it after that.
Climbing the stairs, Yulia took another look at her mansion.
Compared to the castle where human aristocrats stayed or the royal castle on the kingdom side, it was quite plain.
Did you say that you don’t particularly like things that are overly flashy or stand out?
In this aspect, it seemed that the fairies were better than the human nobles.
‘Although it was quite tiring trying to match his personality.’
If someone asked Klaus if he was better off being a human aristocrat or a fairy.
Still, if a fairy would be a hundred times better, Klaus intended to answer that.
At least the upper heads of the fairies did things with a basic idea.
It could be said that there were relatively few nonsense like nobles who were talkative and useless.
“Ha. I thought it would never happen, but it feels like my body has become strangely heavy.”
“It is natural. You’re not alone, Yulia.”
“Still, I thought I could fly. I never thought it would be this hard.”
In the beginning, it would have been barely noticeable, but now the child is fully established.
In other words, it is said that she has entered a period of stability, but from this point on, it is clearly revealed in her eyes, and her woman also clearly recognizes her change.
As soon as she entered her room, Yulia carefully sat down on a chair.
Then she slightly lowered her head and carefully stroked her bulging belly.
“You know what? What kind of guy dares to make a king like this and his nose is not reflected. Who the hell will be the father of the next demon king? No one asked.”
At Yulia’s words, Klaus unknowingly let out a big laugh.
Some might simply have kept her mouth shut for fear of asking the Demon King such a question.
Someone else would have thought that they would have to wait because their king would tell them someday.
Someone else already knew the answer, so I wouldn’t have felt the need to ask.
In particular, it would have been strange for the demons who had served Yulia to ask such a question.
Although it was Yulia who clearly drew a line from the others as a monarch and a subject.
She has been seen leaning on Klaus in a strange way, both privately and at public events.
After Yulia went to the academy, she was followed by a man called the kingdom’s shield, a war hero.
Just looking at this, I could tell that there was something between the two.
“Looks like everyone already knows the answer.”
“I think so too. Is that why it’s even weirder?”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s not that demons from other high-ranking families enter the Demon King’s family, it’s that humans come in. The issue of lineage is one of the areas that is always a problem no matter where you go. I honestly thought that my servants and the demons around me would be repulsed by the fact that I had a human man by my side and carried his child.”
“It certainly would have been. If that human being was an ordinary man, he would certainly have been.”
It was not for nothing that he built up his reputation by suffering all sorts of humiliation from the nobles.
He also doesn’t act as a near-perfect commander over countless episodes.
Even showing mercy to some demons while enduring all sorts of rubbish from the nobles.
It was never something I did just out of a sudden mindset.
Even though the demons looked at humans quite lightly and easily.
It made me unable to look at myself with the same gaze as those people.
Rather, they, who were enemies, set themselves up similarly to their utopia so that they first sent a favorable gaze to themselves and created an atmosphere of praise.
It wasn’t Klaus’s overconfidence in himself or anything like that.
Thoroughly targeting both humans and demons, he pretended to be a ‘made’ hero.
Don’t let anyone see you as someone who can be used and thrown away, who can treat you carelessly.
And to be able to recognize that you are never lacking no matter who you are in the world.
“But. From the 1st Continental War until this war, if you were a demon, Klaus, I can guarantee you that there would be more demons following you than loyal to me.”
“But I can never do that because I am human. It is possible to admire, but it is possible to respect. After all, as a monarch, there is someone else to whom you have to give your allegiance.”
Maybe not being able to choose a demon was a move from God.
Because he was not a demon, because he was a human, Klaus could not threaten the authority of the demon king.
In previous rounds, he misinterpreted that part, which caused him to take too much credit for it, and eventually fell due to the checks and vigilance of other demons.
Taking lessons from those episodes, Klaus minimized his role in the Second Continental War.
When it was necessary, he stepped forward, but when it was unnecessary, Yulia or others took the lead.
Although I would stand behind them and offer help or advice in times of need.
I refrained from standing in front of myself and attracting public attention.
He decides his own role only as the shadow of the demon king, or as the one who follows.
Don’t let others see you as trying to step out of the king’s shadow.
All glory, honor and merit goes to the Demon King and to others.
Anyway, as long as Yulia knew about her performance, everything would be okay.
Even if only she holds her tight, she can be comfortable until her later years, but she doesn’t need to be noticed by her.
“And now they must have noticed. Unlike fairies and beasts, demons and humans eventually have no choice but to mix with each other, whether they like it or not.”
“… That part was something I had been thinking about for a long time. Unlike the two races living at the edge of the west, humans are right next door to the demons and have been influenced a lot without knowing or knowing. Apart from the eye color, we honestly look the most similar.”
They didn’t have pointy ears like fairies or beast ears and tails like beasts.
Although they hate each other very much, if you look closely, there is probably no other race that is as similar and close as demons and humans.
“Above all, humans must be the most populous on this continent. Am I right?”
“Perhaps. If demons are average, fairies and beastmen are below average in number. Conversely, humans have an above-average population that is much larger than that.”
“Capturing the hearts of those humans would be a shortcut to ensuring the stability of the continent in the future. And how to capture the hearts of those people. A way to make them feel safe and faithful to their original work even after being conquered, and to be loyal to this demonic family.”
Whispering so, Yulia leaned back in her chair and gently pulled Klaus.
It’s been a long time since I put the man I’ve only seen in my dreams right in front of me.
Yulia whispered as she opened her lips to which the sweet smell was wafting in.
“Isn’t it simple? All you have to do is make it naturally blend into this demonic family. I, a demon, and you, a human, are intertwined to make the next demon king a person with both demon and human blood. That’s how you become the legitimate monarch of that vast land that extends over the eastern and western halves, and later completely absorbs all the fairies and beastmen.”
“…”
“Right now, the reality is that just stabilizing and absorbing humans is daunting. Fairies and beasts? It’s fortunate that you and others have made it this far. If they hadn’t bowed their heads to me until the end, I might have really killed them all without a twinge of regret.”
Those are absolutely not empty words. It’s not a passing word or a threatening remark.
In fact, Yulia had even committed a massacre, once on prisoners of war.
On another occasion, he had five castles obliterated for resisting in the midst of a war.
The most important thing to her is her Demon King family and her fellow demons.
It is right to regard the other parts as secondary parts chosen for their comfort.
Therefore, it would be correct to assume that Yulia can be anything and she can do anything if it harms the demon king family and her demons.
“But, fortunately, the fairy is Natasha, whom you wrote down beforehand. And the prisoners were taken over by Chief Kaela and finished the internal arrangements. Thanks to that, me and my heir can focus on the work of demons and humans for quite a long time.”
“Yes.”
“That’s why I don’t think my people or humans say anything about you being my companion. I know what would happen if someone tried to take issue with my lineage. In order for demons and humans to mix with each other, first of all, we have to show a suitable appearance from the top. And…”
She carefully placed Klaus’s hand on her own stomach.
Yulia laughed as if she were trying to feel the energy of a child who was soundly asleep inside of her.
“Because I know that after coming all the way here, there is no one better suited to me than you.”
Shortly after saying that, she grabs Klaus’s hand once again as Yulia grabs it.
She then grabs hold of the man’s body with both of her legs, as she makes him hold onto her top, saying that she can always pull on this cumbersome garment.
“Now it is stable. Do you know what I’m talking about?”
“Looks like you’ve put up with it a lot. Are you that hungry?”
“Isn’t that obvious? I think her heart is burning because she can’t do it for such a long time. And if I hug you soon, you’ll be able to approach other women a little more freely. Am I wrong?”
There is no way that this clever demon lord is unaware of the relationship between Klaus and the other women.
The reason why Yulia, who has a strong desire for monopoly and possessiveness, tries to condone it.
Because she knew it was for her sake, she was for her allegiance to the Demon King.
“Come on, so hurry up. There are still many things you want to do and things you have to do, so hurry up.”
To see you, to be embraced by you, don’t let yourself down.
Yulia whispered that while hugging Klaus tightly.
