Chapter 12 - Volume 2 (2/2)
“Mefi…”
A girl-like name. It’s probably a nickname, I think. After Mefi has a sip of a crimson tea I don’t recognize, he finally cuts to the chase.
“Tonight, I have come to have a conversation with Yurushia.”
“With me…?”
“Yes. You’re a very interesting thing to me. With all my traveling between worlds, you can’t possibly appreciate the [Luck] you have for me to meet with you.”
“What is this world…?”
“As far as I can tell, this world is, as I said, a dream world made in a single night.”
“Then, is this dream made by me? Or by you?”
“I have no idea. I’ve been traveling for so long I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.”
A long journey, huh. I wonder if he gets lonely during the incredibly long travels.
Finding me by chance, coincidentally speaking with me…
“Yurushia. Your very existence is facinating. To create something like you, a lot of luck and time were necessary.”
“Even if you say that…”
“It’s not your fault. There’s no way this could be anything other than an impressive cheat.”
Mefi said with narrowed eyes as he laughed.
“…Cheat… hey.”
I say without thinking. I guess I’m the product of chance, then.
More and more, his speech made my cat head tired.
“One piece of advice… a word? Make sure not to drown in your power. Don’t get overconfident…”
Why is he saying such a scary thing? I haven’t beaten nearly enough demons that I’d overestimate myself.
“I hope that when I see you again, you’re still [You].”
“…Y, yup”
I didn’t understand why he said that, but nodded my head anyways. Staying me was my intention from the start.
He stood up from the table, and, approaching slowly, he rested his hand on my forehead.
“Soon, it will be time to say farewell. Thank you for your company, Yurushia.”
He said…
“…!?”
Mefi gently kissed my forehead, and slowly moved back.
Wh, What was that so suddenly…
“I do not know when we will meet again… Yurushia.”
As Mefi slowly takes a graceful, noble-like bow, on his back, three pairs of bat-like wings, the same pale indigo color as his hair, spread out, dancing before the moon of the night sky.
“… In my thousands of years, I’ve never come upon a girl of the same [Species] as me…”
*
“… What was that?”
As I wake up in the soft morning sun, those words spilled out of my mouth
I’m in my new, unfamiliar room; I’m still not accustomed to such a large bed.
After I check that my appearance is still the same, I give out a breath of relief.
For some reason, that dream felt important.
I remember a little, but the [Shocking] part almost were overwrote the important parts in my head.
I can still [Feel] his remains when I touch that spot. I murmured.
“Pedophile.”
As usual, a peaceful day begins for this demon.
TL Notes:
And so, we have our demon’s second harem member. Hooray! (No guarantees, of course)
