Chapter 125 – God’s Gift
There was an uproar after Lennon’s sudden pregnancy announcement. Emil and Sio were in despair and their mouths hung open.
Aya and Erina were flapping their ears and unable to follow the situation, wondering if they had heard wrong.
Time passed, and before I knew it, it was time to go on a trip again. Lennon knew that he was no longer bare, so he wore civilian clothes without a sword or armor.
“Lanelle… Do you really have to be careful? “I want to go too, but…”
He was looking at me while holding his stomach that was about to swell.
After Rania, I am the second child… I am already a father of two children.
Rania, who was next to Lennon, slowly approached me and whispered something in my ear.
“I want to make my little brother myself, so I have to come back quickly, Dad?”
“Phew!?”
She looked at Rania with a surprised expression and saw that she was smiling and making strange shapes with her fingers. One is round, and the other has her two fingers together…
Swish, swish!
I tried putting it in the hole and pulling it out. The meaning of that movement is probably…
“I’ll be waiting for you, so come back quickly.”
“Ha… Okay, Rania.”
Rania smiled and made a heart with her fingers and held it to her lower abdomen. Were you so jealous that Lennon was pregnant?
Afterward, our party slowly packed up our belongings and made our way out of Leihart Street. The strange thing was that most of the time it felt like we were just eating rice cakes at this house instead of traveling and training, but anyway, we had to go to the imperial palace.
It was time to go meet Iris Berzerk, my biological mother and king of the kingdom. Last time, after Lennon announced that she was pregnant, she said she had to make plans again and passed away immediately, but we met again today.
They say they have weapons and armor to give us… The moment when we really have to go catch the demon lord may have arrived.
“Lanelle.”
“Shio?”
When I turned my head to the side when I heard a voice calling me, I saw Shio with a dark expression, clinging to me and looking at me.
It was gulping down its appetite like a wild beast with its prey right in front of it. What? Did I do something lame?
Even other than Shio, there were people who secretly looked at me.
Emil and Aya.
Both of them have eyes that make it difficult to see them as human.
No, right? We’re going to see the Queen, my biological mother, aren’t we? No matter how crazy a person is with their sexual desires, I don’t think they would stop by a motel here and then leave.
“Ranelle’s child… I wanted to have it.”
“Shio?”
“That’s right, we use contraception every day because of our mission to catch the devil…”
“This seems a little unfair.”
“Over there?”
I took a step back and moved back little by little because the party member was getting closer and closer to me. Don’t come close. No, we’re busy right now. What are you trying to do?
“Everyone stops moving.”
Suddenly, my still body felt like it was floating in the air, and I heard a cool voice from behind.
It wasn’t floating in the air, but someone had lifted it. White hair and red eyes.
Huge horns and tall stature that give off a scary atmosphere.
The (porter) of the warrior party and the daughter of the Demon King. Karina Deviluke.
“He killed my mother and took the child.”
“Aren’t you speaking too naturally?”
“Um… Kill the demon lord and take it. “If you get pregnant now, you might not be able to travel for a year.”
When I first saw Karina, I was scared of her because of her strength, but now that I see her acting as a mediator for the warrior party, I suddenly like her.
She’s really the perfect girl if she weren’t a little crazy at night…
The warrior party members couldn’t get any closer as Karina stopped them, clicking her tongue. After all, it is not for nothing that they say that strength is justice.
Instead of putting me down, Karina let me ride her horse on her neck. Huh?
“Karina? Please put me down.”
“Your body is very light. “From now on, when you eat, eat twice as much.”
“Hey? “I’m very embarrassed by this, right?”
“Anyway, you are tempting those women just by walking quietly, so stay still on me.”
I wanted to say something, but when I saw Theo and Emil wandering around like hyenas below, I suddenly felt like I didn’t want to go down.
I guess I should just stay like this. Anyway, in people’s eyes, it will look like we’re just playing around with each other.
[Ranell is a popular guy after all! Bapparapap! I am so proud that my owner is a popular man.]
‘That’s not something to be proud of, Nia.’
In her mind she was talking to Nia, and she responded negatively to that comment. It’s nice to be popular… But I think life becomes difficult.
Just now, they were frantically looking for an opportunity to try and fuck me. Should I just grab the devil and run away?
Then won’t they all regret it and become devastated?
“So what’s the schedule for today? Are we going straight to the royal family?”
“Maybe we can just keep going from now on. “I think the queen is probably waiting for us.”
“But can I go like this?”
No matter how I looked at Karina now, she looked like a full demon, not a half demon. Rather than the short horns that are characteristic of half-horses, her horns resembled those of a huge mountain goat.
“So… I can’t go back to Karen’s state?”
“If I could go back now, wouldn’t you have to walk?”
As soon as Karina heard the words, the party members’ eyes changed in an instant.
“Just keep going like this until you reach the kingdom.”
“I get it. Then let’s just leave it like this until then.”
Karina had a relaxed look on her face, as if carrying me around wasn’t difficult. Is it because he is strong? Or is there another reason?
Because she was riding a wooden horse, her body swayed from side to side, as if she would fall if she was shaken even a little, so it felt dangerous.
‘Is there nothing to catch?’
She looked around to see if she could grab something, and she found something good to use as a handle.
It is the source of power called the symbol of the demons. Horns!
Since ancient times, horns have been called handles.
Up!
“Huh!? Hey, hey…! “You can’t catch that!”
“Uh, huh? Float, fall!”
“Now, grab it!”
I almost fell because of Karina’s suddenly intense reaction, but fortunately, I was able to let go of her horn and grab both of Karina’s hands.
As soon as her hand left her horn, Karina immediately regained her composure, and her horse also regained his composure.
“I’ll say it again, never touch the horns.”
“Why?”
“If they tell you not to touch them, just don’t touch them.”
I definitely remember grabbing Karina’s horns once in the past… Even though she was in Karen’s state back then, wasn’t her reaction similar to now?
Since I knew one of Karina’s weaknesses, I felt like I knew how to deal with it in the future.
I don’t have the confidence to sleep in bed anymore.

“Welcome, warrior.”
“It’s only been two days, queen.”
When we arrived at the royal palace, we knelt in front of the queen to show our respect. No matter how powerful the warrior is in the country, in the end it is the queen who holds the power, so she must show the utmost courtesy.
That is why the queen must also show the utmost kindness and courtesy to the warrior.
The queen… No, Iris, slowly came down from the throne, looking down at us.
“Miss Linen… No, please release the lady-in-law, Mr. Ranel.”
“Now…?”
When I looked around, the hero party members, the queen, and the blonde-haired princesses who would take over the queen’s position in the future were watching us.
A situation where there is no security personnel.
In other words, even if my identity was discovered, only important people would know.
“Oh my… What do you mean? Ranel was already a long time ago.”
“I know, so please be quiet for a moment, Cyanelle.”
“Sister…”
When the two princesses, the queen’s daughters, mentioned my name, the mood changed, and they asked me to explain what this meant.
The two were almost identical in appearance and aura, perhaps because they were twins, but their pupil colors and hairstyles were opposite to each other.
It’s the same side tail, but is it left or right?
My eyes keep falling on something familiar.
“Lanelle-kun.”
“Ah, yes!”
The words of the queen who was looking at me eventually led me to take off the brooch on her head and show my true appearance.
“It’s true… It’s really Ranel, sister.”
“No, how…”
As soon as he saw me, his already large eyes opened even wider, perhaps because he was surprised, and his pupils began to tremble from side to side.
“Ranelle!”
“You were worried!”
Thump!
The two women who were sitting like princesses suddenly jumped out of their seats and started running towards me and hugging me. It was a bit uncomfortable to see the twin girls hugging each other from both sides, but it didn’t feel particularly unpleasant.
Why do my eyes keep itching? Did some dust get in?
“Do you remember us?”
“Do you remember playing chess with me all the time?”
I’m sorry, but I couldn’t remember anything.
