174 Daughter Of The Demon King, Going Home
174 Daughter Of The Demon King, Going Home
"By the way, we've generally talked about this situation, but why is Eina here after all?
Where the conversation had been chatting, Aina was holding her mouth reflexively to the words asked by Fujima.
Well, there's no way they wouldn't ask me, but I was a little alarmed because they didn't ask me this far.
It's not like I can say otherwise, though.
"Didn't you come here for no reason?
"... that's right. I mean, there's only one reason I'm here, right? It's for the so-called homecoming."
That is true for once.
Aina came to the Dimension to return to her home… to the Castle of the Demon King.
"Hmm... is that okay?
"Uh... what do you mean, it's okay? Homecoming, what is it?
"... I just heard a few things too, they have a lot going on?
Apparently, the Somas haven't told us anything about the area, either.
Still somehow imaginable, Felicia turns her worrying gaze toward us when she slightly clouds its face.
Is it because of the color of the hair that the eyes are similar to my own but I also feel completely different?
For the most part, hair and eyes are the same color, and even if they can be slightly different, it doesn't look familiar to Eina at least that they are clearly different so far.
Or maybe that's also something specific to witches...... well, but that's it.
It's nothing like that.
Sure, Felicia may be a witch, but it's the same thing with Eina in the situation.
Besides, as I mentioned earlier.
If Soma's with us, we don't have to worry about it in many ways.
No, in a different way, though I care.
Looks like we lived in the same house alone for about a month.
But it's not a situation I care about right now.
I shrugged my shoulders, including a minute for such a thought gone by.
"It's okay. It's not like they're going to do anything else back there.... maybe, but. Well, that's why I came back for confirmation."
"I know why for now... but I've thought of it quite a bit. You didn't say you weren't going back for a while, did you?
"... I didn't even say I had plans like that when I left college"
"Well, I honestly didn't mean that then. That's what bothered me since Sheila left the academy."
Sheila was also gone from the college, and Aina had quite some leisure time at the time.
There is much to do.
There is no end to magic arm drilling.
But still, there are limits to what you can do alone, and I'm just tired of doing all that alone.
My friends almost didn't stay in college, even as I changed my mood.
Although Lina was the only one left, she had a lot to do, too, and I barely saw her.
In the end, Eina was alone... so I thought I'd do what I could on my own because it was a corner.
And that was where Sheila was at the head.
Sheila also returned to her hometown, which she had not intended to return to for some time.
Then I thought I'd try that myself.
"Hmm... I mean, it was a half-onset behavior, right?
"Well, that's what happens."
"That's why you gave me permission."
"Yeah, I was a little worried about that, too, but I didn't feel comfortable down there, did I? I went to Mr. Sophia's to push half the way, but it was really light."
The Demon King's daughter returns to Demon King's Castle temporarily.
I think we should normally be more vigilant, and I would rather be suspicious.
But without exchanging pledges by skill, etc., they didn't even produce a written statement.
When I asked him if he could return home, he immediately returned the favor, and that was all.
To the extent that I accidentally asked if that was okay from here, it was easy.
"The easier you get permission, the more you're trusted, doesn't that mean?
"We spent about a year together, so maybe we could say that... well, that's why we made it pretty easy to come to Diment for now"
Then to get here, though it wasn't exactly easy, there wasn't even enough to talk about it like the Somas.
Exquisitely, when I used to do this a lot, I had the usual difficulty of being impressed with myself.
"... and came straight here?
"... that? Speaking of which, it must have been a homecoming, right?
"Yes, but... Yeah, you might wonder if you don't know the geography of Diment, but you need to go through this village to get to Demon King's Castle"
Sure, this neighborhood is on the edge of the dime, but in the first place, a place with the Demon King's Castle itself is close to the edge of the dime.
There is also something like a villa here, because it is the closest village to the place where the Demon King Castle is located, and you must always pass it to get out.
Although, I basically don't go outside, so I leave the management here to the village chief.
That's why I almost came out of the village chief's house when I was reunited with Soma and the others.
Even though it's in our own name, we can't just use it on our own without saying hello to those we manage.
"By the way, how long does it take to get to that Demon King's Castle from here?
"It won't take that long, will it? Well, unless you know the way, maybe you should leave here tomorrow morning and get there by evening."
"Is that so..."
When he muttered so, Soma turned her gaze to Sheila and the others.
That seems to be eye-catching...... no, I guess you were right in fact.
"Is it okay for us to follow?
Shortly afterwards, because I've said that.
"It's... well, I don't think you can do it, can you? I hardly had anyone to visit, but I shouldn't have made any restrictions or anything.... but weren't you going back to college?
"I'm still going to do that, but, well, wouldn't it be a problem to be slightly behind?
"... for now, I have no problem"
"Me, too."
"No, it's more about Soma than about you. I know you think you're alive, like Lina or the Dean of the Academy, but it's not like I have any certainty. I'm just gonna tell you I'm alive fast, aren't you happy?... At least if it were me, it would have been a candle"
"Yeah? No, at least Hildegard should have known... they haven't heard?
"Yes? What is that, my first ear? Well, I didn't get to see him very often in the first place..."
Anyway, he's the Dean of the Academy.
Yeah, not the kind of person I'd see, but still, I've seen him about a few times since Soma disappeared.
But I've never heard of it, and the dean seemed quite unwell.
"... I haven't heard it either"
"Is that strange... my life and Hildegard have some fringe, so if we can't find each other, we'll know. That's what he said, and that's what I would feel."
"I don't know the man very well, but I didn't let him know, thinking of the possibility that I would make him happy if I didn't know where he was?... Well, Mr. Soma, I have a question about whether they need to think about it."
"Well... maybe that's what this is all about. And I agree with you on the second half."
"... Mm, I agree"
"With? I haven't been suddenly dissed in my life, have I?
"That's not true, is it? Just a feeling."
"Well, even if Soma ever feels anything about it, it's a disagreement."
"... or a difference in values?
"Oh man, it's a terrible story"
Though you say that and shrug your shoulders, Soma doesn't seem to care much.
I'm not serious about this, either.
Regarding the content itself, anyway.
"Anyway, if that's the case, it certainly doesn't matter, but it doesn't mean someone dies where they didn't know my life or death. I think Eina's house is more concerned and important than that."
"I'm not going to die because we're just going home.... but thanks"
Though I think it's okay, I'm also sure I'm slightly anxious.
So it was quite a pleasure to meet the Somas here, to be honest, and to say that they would follow.
Well, that's just about it, although I don't say it... there's nothing I can do to loosen my mouth.
Either way, whatever happened with this, I'm sure you'll be fine.
Nothing is best, and although I think it is... even then Alberto grabbed me, I never thought that would happen.
Therefore, minimum vigilance is not neglected, while not forgetting the mindset of what if.
They wondered how well they would be and how Eina felt about those who had even come to think she missed them.
