Chapter 538.3
I was able to realize once again that these leisurely days were more important to me than anything else in the world, in contrast to when I was busy.
I was convinced that this was what I was living for.
Lyuu said, “Well…now that I look back on it again, the Magic Festa was a lot of fun. I was very excited to see the world that my husband was aiming for in an easy-to-understand form. I wonder if there will be more tournaments like that in the future?”
“Something as large-scale as Magic Festa will probably be held once every few years or so, but the competition itself was well received, and I hope there will be more amateur competitions in the future. I trust that the respective Ruler’s of each country will build on the success of this year’s event.” (Yuki)
I was having a chat with Lyuu at my home.
Magic Festa was also well received, especially the latter one, which was easy to understand, flashy, and could make even the bloodthirsty go crazy, and it was simply a money-maker.
The latter event earned so much money that there were quite a few people who wanted to hold it regularly in the future, and all the expenses for the Magic Festa had already been recovered.
In addition to the huge stadium [Atvoini Dominus], which was capable of drawing 100,000 spectators, the construction costs of hotels, parks, and other facilities in the area have not only been recouped, but have even turned into a profit.
Well, this was a good trend. I hope a Pro-League and similar events would be established and become a lot of fun.
“I would appreciate it if sports could be played in every country in this way. I’d be pleased to see the idea of race fade away in the future!” (Lyuu)“Yes…I hope that happens.” (Yuki)
Even by the standards of my previous life, that was very difficult to achieve…but well, if they could reach a point that it would be as good as my previous life, then all the better.
This world had not yet reached a point where races stopped trying to kill each other.
Lyuu added, “I think Husband would enjoy participating in the competition himself.”
“I enjoy playing sports, but I prefer to watch from the sidelines. Besides, to be honest, if I were to participate…I’m sure I’d win.” (Yuki)
“Oh, yeah. If your opponent was not on the same level as Lefi or something, you’re not going to be able to play equally against them, right?” (Lyuu)
“That’s what I mean.” (Yuki)
If I were to participate in the Magic Festa, I would simply destroy everyone.
No matter what kind of magic they shot at me, no matter how many people tackled me, I would not be stopped and get points just for running lightly. That would be how the event would end.
That would not be fun to watch or do.
“Well, I’m fine with playing [Extreme Sports] with Lefi. When she can move to her heart’s content again, why don’t you join us!” (Yuki)
“Sure. Lyuu and Lefi will be the pair, and Husband will be solo. I’ll be happy to play with you!” (Lyuu)
“…Well, then, we’ll invite Nell to join me, and it’ll be two against two! And…yes, I think we can win.” (Yuki)
“Then we’ll add Layla and Illuna to our team! Well, my husband, can you really compete with Layla and Illuna on our team?” (Lyuu)
“That’s not fair!?” (Yuki)
Lyuu smirked at me, and I chided her. Why did she assume that there would be a difference just based on the number of people in the group?
…I suppose it would be impossible for us to play right now when Lefi and Lyuu were still pregnant. But then again, we were just fooling around as usual, so it’s nothing serious.
Being an Emperor was a good experience, but enough was enough. Next time, if someone asked me to become emperor, I wouldn’t do it.
Well, it would be difficult to resist the opportunity to be an Emperor, an event that could only happen once in a while.
“…Speaking of which, now that you mention it, what should I tell the (newborn) kids when they ask me what my job is?” (Yuki)
“Eh, uh…a Demon Lord?” (Lyuu)
“Well, I mean, I guess that is true… but wouldn’t it be easier for them to understand if I told them that their father was an Emperor than mentioning being a Demon Lord?” (Yuki)
“It’s certainly difficult to explain, isn’t it?” (Lyuu)
I certainly agree that it would be difficult to explain what a Demon Lord was.
If I told my kids, “Dad is a Demon Lord!” I’m sure they would ask, “What is that?”.
Well, to begin with…
“Can I tell them what my work being a Demon Lord is like? …Well, I can’t say. In other words, I am a NEET in the broad sense of the word…? Oh, come on, Lyuu, what are we going to do? I can’t even answer a child’s question about my occupation…?” (Yuki)
Lyuu looked at me, who was starting to get slightly flustered, and smiled wryly.
“Calm down, it’s okay. Thanks to my husband, we are all able to live our lives freely. It is true that he is staying at home, but he is protecting us with the power of the dungeon. So the husband is not jobless…he is a home guard!” (Lyuu)
“That’s synonymous with being jobless.” (Yuki)
In a way, it was an exquisite word choice.
We continued chit chatting and laughing.
Lyuu’s expression, which had been smiling happily, suddenly became contorted.
Then, she held her stomach with both hands.
“? What’s wrong?” (Yuki)
“Uh…” (Lyuu)
“Uh?” (Yuki)
Lyuu said, “It’s coming out…”
“…wait what, it’s going to be born!” (Yuki)
I froze like a fool, and Lyuu’s words made me extremely nervous, even though I had already known that it was about time.
“Uh, uh… right, Layla!” (Yuki)
I went to call Layla in a panic.
Then, our house was gone in an uproar like a beehive being poked.
