Vol 1 Chapter 2 (1/2)
Chapter 02: The Day the Majin Awoke
One week has passed since Lilian picked me up
A week that passed like a raging wave A wave so intense I could weep
Alfred cae But Alfred is Alfred and can only e of taking care of me
Being nursed by a beauty There’s nothing that could make me happier
When she changes itilossy black hair would stick to her smooth skin She put on display her full breasts and slender fraht, shapely bottom
Ahh, hoonderful, how fun, this is the best――
――I’
I’ll say it once more: that joyful description is an illusion
The week that passed like a violent, raging as Lilian’s fault
“■■■……”
“Uuu…uuu…uuee…”
At the sound of Lilian’s voice I began to cry
――Why is that you ask?
“■■、■■■……”
Because, using both hands, Lilian held out a dripping slab of [rawpiece of ainst my mouth
――Hey! Stop it!! Who’s going to eat that!?
S-save me Alfred onii-san!!
A squishy gross feeling was covering my mouth
Without paying attention to my refusal of that red, raw flesh, Lilian was determined to forcibly make me eat
I’lad you’re concerned, but, after all, I can’t eat it!!
“……?”
Even if you tilt your head in an adorable display of concern I won’t eat it!! Looking sad is not going to work either!!
――First of all can’t you at least cook it so that it’s sterilized?
I’m a baby you know? My lack of resistance is no joke ――As I fear, Lilian ht be a little off in the head
――Hey now, crying while stuffing your cheeks with rawa really surreal picture So please stop
She seems to be the type to not show her emotions on her face
Of course I’ve seen her look worried and her bright smile, but if you co
I’m held near her face every day so I should know, but ant assumption
I turn aze from the Lilian with her cheeks stuffed with raw
As I do I hear the door open with a clank
――He’s here! My savior!!
“Hahaha, was Lilian trying to force you to eat raw ain?”
It’s not soh about Alfred onii-san
While ss a nearby chair over and sets it down next to Lilian before taking a seat
“I thought it ht some food babies can eat with me”
After he says that Alfred opens his hand and shows me several small fruits
They seeive off a poisonous vibe Blue, black, purple…purple?
“Ah, you look somewhat concerned Do not fret! The poison has been properly removed”
Hm? ――Poison? You did say poison, didn’t you? So that ht?
“……”
I return his words with an incredibly grim face But it doesn’t see with his whole face Haha… damn you I’ve now seen the smile of the Devil
…well, you see, it seery at the moment I’ll eat those later Much later …yeah
While I was thinking this I again turned aze towards Alfred and found an unusual object was now in his hands
It was a bottle A poison-like, purple fluid-filled, bottle
――Alfred-san? What’s that bottle that you brought with those fruits? ――That isn’t, by any chance, the antidote?
…Did you really remove the poison from this stuff!?
With y than usual, out of true desperation, I rolled left three times No No No
With a ghastly vigor I cos of: absolutely not
“Really? Then later I will have Lilian feed it to you”
No!! Absolutely not!! That’s just raising , isn’t it!?
――As I thought I’ to be force fed Haha…it’s like I’ve beco on a cool pose that would go ith that state
“Oh, yes, today I a to introduce you to the family”
――Family?
At the sound of those words a question mark seems to float up, but it is soon cancelled and dispersed The word [faiven a forht
Fro ast themselves
Then――
“■■■!”
“■■!!”
“■■、■■■■”
――U-uwah…
A bunch of them have entered the room
Each and everyone, just like Alfred and Lilian, have porcelain white skin, and sparkling red eyes
“Sorry about all the fuss Babies are rare around here so everyone gathered to take a look”
Oho…
…But now that I think about it, soht my attention
――[Rare]
Specificially: [Babies are rare]
“Actually, most of us have never seen a baby Our race has incredibly low reproductive abilities so babies are rarely born But, tolives …I wonder as the last time a baby of our race was born?”
O-kay Sounds good
――yes?
“In any case, that is why, in normal cases, when a child of our same race is born infor deal But, it does not seem that you were born from someone in our community”
Oh dear That seeht to myself, as if it was someone else’s situation, and nodded
――But this conversation is definitely about me, isn’t it?
“You appear to be identical to our race: the Majin But as to where you caure out” Alfred stated with a bitter smile
I suddenly really want to borrow a mirror somehow
That reminds me, up until now I haven’t really been interested in my appearance
“But you know, even if you are a child of unknown origins, to us you are fains are not at all an issue The rest of the family cannot wait to be able to speak with you”
From nearby Alfred I can see around ten Majin who looked really interested in my person
I was somewhat taken aback by all this, but Alfred’s words e
After that Alfred sent the rest of the Majin back and the rooain just Lilian, Alfred, and I
“We will have a more difficult discussion when you are a bit older Until then ill protect you so just relax and let us raise you”
As expected of Alfred When he speaks to you with that beautiful face and love-filled expressions, even though he’s aa prisoner of his words
If you keep repeating those words that’s just what I’ll have to do Just watch row up peacefully
Hehehe, first up is sleeping!
Ah…but please give me a break with the raw meat, ok?
One month has passed
The tily slowly
Sleeping, eating, and sleeping again Every once and awhile having raw
Around the time I’d become very used to Lilian’s presence I became able to walk under my oer
I couldn’t believe how quickly I was growing up
Fro able to walk took enius
In the language department, because of Alfred’s super translation ability I was able to understand the main points
But e was fro as spoken around my by the Majin whose words I couldn’t understand, namely everyone besides Alfred and Lilian
My gait was a bit unsteady, but I had gained the ability and freedom to wander about the solemn castle
“[Sare] eats meat?”
“He seeht”
――Ahh…I bet they heard about that from Lilian
When Lilian offers me raw meat, I earnestly do as they just said
By the way [Sare] is ave it to me
My last naether it’s [Sare Satana] It seems to flow really well and I’ve become quite fond of it
“It’s good when you cook it” (Sare)
“It’s better raw” (Lilian)
――So argues the owner of that unfavorable opinion while stuffing her cheeks with raw meat
While giving a sidelong glance towards Lilian I let myself down from the bed
On unsteady feet I headed towards the room’s mirror and assessed my own reflection
As Alfred said, my appearance is near to their own
Not just white, but porcelain-like skin, red eyes like fresh blood, and black hair like the night of a new ht and darkness were distinct, and the contrast low
“I’o to Alfred’s place for a bit Lilian”
“Nn, off you go”
During our exchange I continued to observe my appearance and confirmed its validity while Lilian continued to stuff herto briefly reply to me
Alfred’s roohest level of the castle
The cli of it as training
I soe to make the cli a book
When Alfred notices me he shows a kind smile
“hello there Sare I see you have become able to climb up here on your own”
“But it’s still hard”
“You are growing up so quickly ――Now then, co at a round table in the corner of the room
Facing le empty crevice the bookshelves were cra room for the curious
“Nohat shall we discuss today…”
“Can I decide e talk about? It’ll help ether what I’ve learned”
“That is true; let us do that”
“Then, first let’s start with――”
My head was croith a bunch of questions, so I voiced one of them
“Where are we?”
“The country of the Majins: [Irudoe Empire] But rather than a country, it is more accurate to refer to us as a settlement”
“――Settlement?”
“The population of Majins this country once had have declined, so we are now just this settlement In the past we had many brethren at our borders Now the whole of the Irudoe nation are the hundred or so of us who live in this castle That is why it does not seeht to call this place a country We are not equal to foreign nations after all”
With a sad smile Alfred continued:
“Anyways, this castle―― [Sanctos Castle] is a remnant of the time when the Irudoe Empire ell known The Majin race now resides here”
“By the hy did the Majin decline?”
