A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

Chapter 563.2

It was a comfortable journey in the sky.

Last time we were inside the airship for several days, but this time it was only for a few hours, so we basically stayed in our rooms.

To show Riou and Sakuya the view outside, I carried them once to the open glass enclosed deck at the back, but Riou was scared and cried, so I laughed and came back to the room with them.

Sakuya didn’t cry, but he seemed more interested in the other guests around him than the scenery, so he looked at them a lot. For him, it may be unusual and fun to see so many new people.

There were more people at the boarding area, but he was asleep during that time.

Sakuya’s hobby was observing people. I got the impression that he was more interested in people’s activities than toys. He also loved toys, though.

It had already been a few hours since we got on the train in the early afternoon, so the scenery outside was currently all dark.

In my previous life, I would probably have been able to see streetlights and other lights below me, but in this world, it was completely dark.

The darkness was not so bad because the starlight was beautiful.

Indeed, the sky was always full of stars. The splendor of this scene would be best felt by me, who had a previous life.

However, a change occurred to such a scene outside.

A pattern of lights started to appear on the ground.

They were gradually increasing, not as bright as in my previous life, but still quite bright, illuminating the darkness of the night as bright as the starry sky.

Perhaps it was the light leaking from the capital of the Erlin Confederation.

Heh… Amazing. I knew it from the fact that they developed airships, but the Erlin Confederation was really more advanced in this kind of technology than others.

“Wow! Look everyone, it’s beautiful.” (Illuna)

“Oh~…!” (Shii)

“…Nice night view.” (Enne)

The group of girls, who had been chatting earlier, noticed that the scenery outside had started to shift, and stuck to the window again.

Moreover, the Wraith girls were also glued to the scene outside in the same way.

A little later, the airship seemed to begin to lose altitude and the light below became closer.

Before long, we had landed at the landing site, and after the light vibration of landing on the ground, the crew started to guide us off the airship, so we followed them and got off the airship – a familiar figure was waving at us.

“Hey, Yuki-dono!” (Genaus)

“Oh! Captain!” (Yuki)

The man who called out to us was dressed in a military uniform.

Colonel Genaus Lorraine

He was a soldier of the Erlin Confederation, with whom we have had a close relationship ever since I saved his airship from being attacked by a ladybug-like monster when we were on our way to the Dragon’s Village.

When we went on a trip to the village of the Sheep Horn Clan before, we were taken on a ship captained by him, so he was acquainted with our family, and it appears that the Erlin Confederation took care of him and sent him as our guide.

“You went to the trouble of coming to meet us?” (Nell)

“Hmph, if you are coming, I will not fail to show you around. It’s been a long time, madams and ladies.” (Genaus)

After his bow, my household members also returned greetings in their own way.

The girls were cheerful. The adult group behaved like adults.

“Yuki’s family is as lively as ever. So, I heard that your wife was pregnant before… These children?” (Genaus)

“Ah, the one over here with her ears flicking is the big sister Riou, and the one over here looking at you with interest is the little brother Sakuya. Both of you, this uncle is Captain Genaus, who is an acquaintance of your father’s.” (Yuki)

“Haha, this is Uncle Genaus. Nice to meet you, boys… You’re so cute!” (Genaus)

“Right?” (Yuki)

I knew you were a good judge of character.

The captain was playing peek-a-boo with our children as if he were a relative. Soon enough, he returned to his senses when he noticed us looking warmly at him. He coughed once as if to tell us to forget about what happened.

“I’d love to continue chatting with you about all sorts of things, but it’s late, and you’re probably tired from your long journey. Let me show you to your hotel first.” (Genaus)

“Thank you, please.” (Yuki)

We followed his directions and entered the Erlin Confederation.
