Child Rearing Hero and Children of the Demon King - Chapter 46

Chapter 46

One month after staying in the castle, I began thinking .




The mature beauty the King married has got all the power .
Well, that’s all good . Her politics are honest, so let’s deem that acceptable .
The problem is using that power as a shield .

“It’s quite an honest demand, is it not?”

The current queen, the succubus Sivilla said while smiling .

“You are a bachelor . I am married . I have both the power and assets to raise children, and my partner is His Majesty who is a broad-minded person that didn’t even mind that I am a monster . You need not to worry about anything . ”

Even though things appeared this way, I felt that she was pressing me .

…… To hand her over the Demon King’s twins .

“You……! Certainly, Yuuya-san didn’t have a girlfriend for an eternity, and he has never raised children before, but can’t you see that the twins are attached to him!? In the first place, do you think a promiscuous woman who quickly changed her thoughts for a rich person is qualified to raise children!?”

The Sage’s Egg Aura counterattacked . I secretly felt hurt . I don’t have a girlfriend, yes . Sorry about that .

“Besides, Yuuya-san has many future prospects! It’s very likely that he will marry and build a happy family from now on! Therefore, he has the right, or rather the prospects of looking after the twins!」

Aura shouted while stealing glances at Yuuya . Her glances most likely had many meanings behind them, but Yuuya did not notice them, as expected .

“No, it’s not written anywhere that a bachelor cannot look after children, right? I might not have a girlfriend just yet, but it’s possible for me to look for a partner from now on . Aura said so too . ”

Aura’s expression suddenly lit up . The sulking twins started smiling after hearing Yuuya’s words .

“Well, my life has just begun . I am still young . Rather than a marriage, I would like to properly look after these children . Sivilla-san, you have just married His Majesty too . You have many things you have to get accustomed to as well, no? The Demon King’s case is still under investigation too . His Majesty also shouldn’t be talking about adopting children just yet . ”

Aura dropped her shoulders in dejection . (I clearly understand that he’s a person like that…… As I thought, do I have to be straightforward about it……? Ahh, geez……) Yuuya didn’t hear her mutterings .

“Ahh, we are fine with it?”

We continued talking while ignoring both the mature beauty and the Sage’s Egg .

“My daughter approves of it too . ”

My body suddenly stiffened .
Sivilla’s daughter . His Majesty’s child . Princess .
…… The shotacon who fell in love with Iric .

“I shall decline with all of my might . ”

Iric would be in danger if I nodded here . In various ways .
The children were clinging to my legs . The two were looking up to me with puppy eyes . Their anxious gazes stirred my paternal feelings .
I have to protect them .
I don’t think they would do anything bad, but should we escape at night?
I feel that Iric might encounter danger if he stays at the castle any longer .




The princess has yet to give up and she already tried making Iric her husband in various ways .
Did she think that he won’t be able to escape if he becomes her little brother?
Scary . Even though she wouldn’t be able to marry him if they are siblings, even step-siblings at that .

“How stubborn . I loved that about you, too . But, I already have a dear husband . And, I would love to have adorable children too ufufufufu . ”

I quickly lifted the twins in my arms after hearing Sivilla’s words that sounded like from another world .

“Let’s pretend this conversation has never happened! Well then, we will excuse ourselves!! I’d like to teach the children more letters in my room!!”

I left the scene at a high speed .

“I feel at ease with Onii~san as always . You have easing powers . ”
“You are incredible, Nii~chan . We want to be able to ignore various things like you . ”
“? I don’t know what you mean, but I will protect both of you, alright!”

I declared to the twins who looked at me with reliance .

“Yes . I trust you . I trust you more than Otousan . ”
“Ou! I trust you more than Tou~chan, Nii~chan! That princess is scary and I don’t want her to approach me!”

They treat the Demon King somewhat terribly, but rather than that .

“…… I thought so…… should we escape at night after all……?”

Hearing my mutter, Iric laughed cheerfully .

“Good idea! Let’s bring along『only』Pochi and escape!”
“True! Pochi『Only』is good!”

Why did they emphasize “only” ? Pochi is resting at the stables and he must be quite lonely . Though he’s treated quite roughly, they do seem to miss him after all .
Anyhow, it looks that I will have to escape from the castle with the children first .
