Chapter 109: Later Talk 1 Drinking with Yukurishisu
One summer night, when the sun went down for about an hour, I was having a spree celebrating for the success of obtaining diplomatic ties with Yukurishisu in her private room. However, the main onus is to talk about various stories.
“Well then, congratulations on your conclusion of diplomatic relations." Tsuchio
“Thank you very much. Cheers." Yukurishisu
We hit our glasses against each other. It seems to be a bad manner, but it\'s good at times like this.
“Tsuchio is the father of three more children.... Do you have plans to increase them in the future?" Yukurishisu
“Uhh, I don\'t understand. Is it just like everyone else? Yukurishisu, did you get married?" Tsuchio
“I am thinking that I have to do it soon… no matter how bad it is. Until now, I have been busy with work and I have no time for such things." Yukurishisu
“Then, are you looking for it from now on? Please invite me to the ceremony." Tsuchio (TL: Wrong answer:/ )
“I will think about it. By the way, when we first met after you decided to join my diplomatic plan, I was surprised that you suddenly became a national guy. What\'s the reason for that?" Yukurishisu
“Ah, that is..." Tsuchio
<Tsuchio, deciding his course>
“Principal, how do I become a diplomat?" Tsuchio
“...What\'s wrong, so suddenly." Principal
We came back to the academy after the summer vacation. Everyone\'s injury has healed and I decided what I have to do. I have limited time, so I must move now.
“No, I decided to be a diplomat in the future." Tsuchio
“That\'s a good thing, but it\'s not going to be easy. You have to pass an exam first, and even if you pass it, it will be many years..." Principal
“That\'s no good! It\'s about a year or two, and it must not be like going to another country..." Tsuchio
“You are not supposed to be spoiled. A young man who does not know anything suddenly can not accept such a big role. If it’s Tsuchio, I think that it won\'t take ten years. Don\'t be impatient, do it step by step." Principal
“...Then, it is useless. It\'s too late.” Tsuchio
“What\'s wrong, Tsuchio? It does not seem like you. Do you have any circumstances?" Principal
“...Actually.” Tsuchio
I explain my intention that I want to tie diplomatic relations with a country of another continent. It seems like Yukurishsu wants to join the other side as well. The principal who heard it said,
“...It is a terrible story. Tsuchio went to another continent during summer vacation...How?" Principal
“Through teleportation, I was picked up by someone over there." Tsuchio
“Haa...it doesn\'t seem like you are joking." Principal
“I don\'t think a lie can be passed on to the principal.” Tsuchio
When I met her for the first time, it felt like as if she can see through everything.... Nostalgic.
“I understand the circumstances. But if it\'s going to be normal, there\'s only one way.” Principal
“Therefore, I should take a method that is not ordinary. That\'s why I came to talk to you, principal." Tsuchio
“...No way, you guys are not using my influence!?" Principal
I do not think it\'s a false claim though… I have to use what I can use, or it will be impossible to conclude diplomatic ties in ten years.
“How impudent, you..." Principal
“I know. I am doing this knowingly. Won\'t you lend me your strength?" Tsuchio
“...It is useless. If you do not do it with your own power, it will collapse after a while. For Tsuchio, I can not lend my power." Principal
“Is that so..." Tsuchio
That\'s right. Because the principal said it is impossible, I have to take the exam normally. I wonder how long it will take...I have to come from as soon as possible....
“However.” Principal
“...However?” Tsuchio
“Wouldn\'t it be okay to use the influence you got with your own power? Look, I have work to do now. Go, Go.” Principal
I\'m driven out of the principal\'s office. The influence I got myself… I have to go to the capital this time.
“So, as a result of consulting with the military minister, the secretary, and the knight commander, I took over the department about the empire which was just established." Tsuchio
“That\'s what it was.... I never thought they\'ll leave it to a guy who just came in." Yukurishisu
“Because it was the department that worked with your empire, there were no applicants. In such a way, because I was the only man who wanted to do the work myself, I pushed a bit even if I was a little unreasonable." Tsuchio
“I see." Yukurishisu
We bring food that look like dumplings to our mouths. If anything, it is likely boiled dumplings, because they seem to be in a soup.
“First, we started by changing the impression of demons." Tsuchio
“How did you do that? It was quite deep rooted, or not?" Yukurishisu
“Well, I have subjugated magical beasts and pirates. Together with my familiars." Tsuchio
“Magical Beasts and pirates? That\'s the work of the knight order, right?" Yukurishisu
“That\'s right, but there are guys who can not deal with them inside. I beat them like this from one end. People who saw it would have to watch Ruu and the others and think that demons are not enemies. I tried to destroy the roots of it." Tsuchio
It takes time to call strong tamers and others who are skilled. That way, we can move quickly with teleportation. There were also some knights that were connected to the pirates. They were really rotten guys. Even though there are some fine knights like Kisato....
“At that time, I got acquainted with the current king." Tsuchio
“The king is a great and mature man with a beard. I understood at a glance that he trains his body." Yukurishisu
“Yes, we fought together when we killed a big demon beast. When the former king had fallen ill, we had to decide a new king, so we proposed him as the new king. The military minister and the knight commander were also involved." Tsuchio
“If it weren\'t for him, we wouldn\'t have tied diplomatic relations. I really appreciate it.” Yukurishisu
Well, the new king′s power was originally large, so it was not difficult. He just cut off the forces of opposing aristocrats.
“Just around that time, Ruu and the others gave birth. Somehow, everyone gave birth at about the same time.... It was strange." Tsuchio
“I was surprised that there was a child between a human and a demon. How did you do it?” Yukurishisu
“It seems they were not much different from humans." Tsuchio
<Tsuchio′s first child birth>
Ruu was busy giving birth for a fair amount of time. A midwife helped her and now she likely gave birth. Because I′m not allowed to enter, I just have to wait.
『Tsuchio, why are you aimlessly wandering around? You are a husband and not a coward』Tsuchino
“Th, that\'s right." Tsuchio
I\'m being squeezed by Tsuchino and sitting on the sofa. In the spacious living room, there is only me now. No way, Ruu will be giving birth just as I bought a house.... Well, is it better than a narrow executive dormitory? Although it was nice to have sat down, it is very uncomfortable; therefore, I stand up and roam around the room. Tsuchino sighed, "No, it\'s useless," but I don’t stop wandering around. After all, a woman is calm at such times....
“Are you alright, Ruu...because your body is sturdy, you won\'t be accustomed to pain. The first birth is the highest even with the probability of miscarriage..." Tsuchio
『She is okay, she doesn\'t have a midwife. Rin and Lime are also pregnant, you know what to do in such a situation.』
“I know.... Haaa, I\'m calm." Tsuchio
Honestly, I am as tense as was when I first met Hellfire-san or encountered Grannir. I managed to empathize myself because there was terror, but this time it is not. I have to be nervous.
Suddenly, the cries of Ruu and others are heard from the room which is the operation room. Along with that, the midwife and Nichrome \'s encouraging voices are heard. Lime and Rin moved to an acquaintance’s house because it would not be good to see these before giving birth themselves.
“Ruu!?” Tsuchio
『That\'s why I told you not to enter!』Tsuchino
“Let me go, Tsuchino! I\'m going to Ruu\'s side!" Tsuchio
『Even for Ruu, I can not let you go!』Tsuchino
Tsuchino holds me down in a hurry. Even though she should be my shadow, why can\'t I move normally? Tsuchino let go of me!
『Just today, you are denied to enter! If you\'re a man, shut up and wait!』Tsuchino
“Then I will stop being a man!!!" Tsuchio
『You′re really hopeless!』Tsuchino
Tsuchino is a spirit, so her power is not that strong. It is heavy to be hooked up, but I can move while dragging. Together with the resistant Tsuchino, I approach the door. The moment when I tried to put a hand on the knob, the door gently pushed open towards me and I was blown away due to it hitting my face quite well.
“Ah, master, were you there? I didn\'t notice you." Nichrome
“No, Nichrome knew absolutely! You did it on purpose!" Tsuchio
“Good grief, I told Tsuchino to keep master away by all means..." Nichrome
『Unlike everyone, I am ineffective!? I′m a spirit! You guys are demons!』Tsuchino
“I\'m not a demon, I\'m a mechanical human." Nichrome
『Don\'t flame someone! It\'s something similar!』Tsuchino
“Until I mentioned the facts, it\'s much different." Nichrome
“I do not care about such a thing! Nichrome, what is with Ruu and the baby!?" Tsuchio
“Both are perfectly fine. It\'s about time you hear the lively voice.” Nichrome
Immediately after that, crying comes from inside the room. The proof that the baby began to breathe; the first voice after receiving life in this world. Released from my tension, I sit on the spot.
“Haa, that\'s good..." Tsuchio
『It\'s quite a hassle, master.』Tsuchino
“From now on this way, you can think ahead.... It seems like you can enter already. Please go to Ruu." Nichrome
“Ou.” Tsuchio
When I enter the room, Ruu is sleeping in the bed in the center and the midwife is doing something in the back.
“Ruu, glad I could make it. Give your best.” Tsuchio
“...Tsuchio.” Ruu
Ruu wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me. Sweat is permeating from her body, which shows that it was serious.
“I have given birth a baby. Our child..." Ruu
“Yes, you gave birth. Where is the baby?" Tsuchio
“The midwife is bathing the baby in hot water for the first time." Ruu
While stroking the head of Ruu, I look at the midwife in the back. She has something in her hands wrapped in a big towel. She handed something to Ruu. What was being enveloped was the baby that was just born earlier and was a little red baby. Although it was crying until a while ago, it slept now. According to the report, the baby seems to be a girl.
“Waaa..." Baby
“Was she tired from crying?" Tsuchio
“It looks like that...but it\'s a funny face. It\'s crumpled." Ruu
“All the children who have just been born are like this. But she\'s pretty.” Tsuchio
“Yes, very much. Her hair is the same as me, it is red; I don\'t know her eyes, but her face is also like me, right?" Ruu
“Because it is a girl, it would be nice if she looks like Ruu. Becoming a beauty." Tsuchio
“Thanks! Ah, look Tsuchio!" Ruu
The baby holds Ruu′s finger with its small hand. I wonder if she understood that it\'s her mother\'s hand.
“Her power is so strong...where does it come from?" Ruu
“Because it is Ruu′s child, its power may be strong." Tsuchio
“I have to tell her how to use it properly." Ruu
“Ah. Well, have you decided her name already? What\'s her name?" Tsuchio
I asked Ruu to decide it by herself without interfering. I will change it if it\'s too bad a name....
“Because it is a girl, taking the first letter from Tsuchio′s and my name, we get Tsuru! How about that?" Ruu
“...Tsuru? Yeah, it\'s good, isn\'t it? It\'s like a little bird and it’s a cute name." Tsuchio
“Then, this girl\'s name is Tsuru! Nice to meet you, Tsuru..." Ruu
Ruu strokes the head of Tsuru while smiling. She also gently grasped my finger when I stroked her cheek and touched the other hand.
“Roughly, it is like this. After that, Lime and Rin also gave birth, but I was able to respond calmly!” Tsuchio
“After all, when you give birth to a baby, it hurts..." Yukurishisu
“Well, since it comes out of the crotch, it is determined to hurt. I don\'t quite understand it though as a man." Tsuchio
“I thought it was somebody else. Speaking of which, what is the name and gender of the childs of Lime and Rin?” Yukurishisu
“Rin\'s is a boy, and his name is Rio. Lime\'s child\'s name is Lychee, gender is...maybe a boy." Tsuchio
“What is maybe!? You checked it!?" Yukurishisu
“I confirmed it! Firmly! But...the more it grows, the more girl-like it becomes...! I\'m losing my confidence." Tsuchio
“Ah, it\'s complicated as a father. What is it like?" Yukurishisu
“Emm..." Tsuchio
<Tsuchio′s day off>
On a certain holiday morning, I woke up at the usual time. The sun is still low and not completely risen. Ruu, sleeping next door, is still asleep. I wonder if such a good adjustment.... Even from the top of the futon, her body didn’t collapse after childbirth. Because her waist is thin and her chest is big, it is a really great figure.... How can she maintain this? Well, I\'m not a little brat from this morning. Today is my free day, at that time I tried to go to sleep again, but the door was slammed open! Then something jumped onto my belly very well. The little body shakes to the light shock.
“Papa, get up! It\'s already morning!"
“Father..."
“Get up!!!”
“Guys...Papa is still sleepy, so I′m going to sleep a little longer. You too, please go to bed a little longer." Tsuchio
The ones who came to my belly were my children Tsuru, Lychee and Rio. They all look like their mothers and don\'t have much of me. Tsuru is red haired with a small horn, tail and wings, Lychee also has silver purple-hair and can also liquefy a little. Rio is blonde with a small horn and a horse tail hanging from his waist. What everyone has in common is that everyone has black eyes. Only this, I know, is my inheritance....
“Eh, nooo. Today is your long awaited day off and papa promised to play a lot with us! Therefore get up!!"
“There is a book I want to read."
“Get up!!!”
Muu, no matter how often my children ask, it\'s a little hard not to sleep again.... I\'d like to go to sleep once more.
“Horaa, I\'m coming with a futon!" Tsuchio
“Wapu!?”
“Huwa..."
“Ugh, Black! What is this!?"
“Let\'s sleep together." Tsuchio
My children who are wrapped in the futon are being hugged. They had resisted noisily for a while, but they are still only children. It was hard to get up early in the morning, and soon they started to sleep on my chest. Well, I\'m going to fall asleep, too.
“Hey, Rio. Don\'t spill your mouth, eat properly. I told you yesterday, right?” Rin
“I\'m sorry." Rio
“I wonder if you really understood..." Rin
“Mother, can I leave this vegetable? It\'s bitter..." Lychee
“No, Lychee. If you\'re picky, you can\'t be like your father, do you?" Lime
“Uu, then I\'ll eat..." Lychee
“Mom, Refill!" Tsuru
“Yes yes, Tsuru eats well. Is not it too much to eat so much?" Ruu
“Yes!” Tsuru
The scenery of the table in the house is quite noisy. Well, I\'m not a hater. It\'s fun to eat in a lively surrounding.
“Dad, what are we doing today?" Rio
“Play with me! You promised me that before!" Tsuru
“No, he is reading books with me. Tsuru is afterwards." Lychee
“It is different, I am first!" Tsuru
“I\'m first! I\'m going to have dad and mom teach me martial arts!” Rio
“It\'s me!" Tsuru
“It\'s me!" Lychee
“It′s me!” Rio
All three children stare at me. Even so, I only have one body. I can not play with all three at the same time.
“Don\'t quarrel. Papa is staying home all the time, so may you play in turn?" Tsuchio
“However..."
“Let\'s decide the order with stone paper scissor. No complains?" Tsuchio
“””Rock, paper, scissors””” 3 children
“Then, let\'s start. Are you doing what I am saying?" Tsuchio
“I\'m doing it properly! What is important in martial arts is your physical strength!" Rio
“Me too! I\'m doing it too!" Tsuru
“I\'m working hard too!" Lychee
The first thing Rio wanted to do was martial arts training. Well, everyone has come along. The place is the garden of our house, which is quite wide to move around. It is not thinkable in Japan.
“Yeah, that\'s good. Well then, let\'s get out of the swing first!"
“””Yes!”””
~One hour later~
“””Thank you for your hard work..."”” 3 children
“Thanks. You must rest your body properly?" Tsuchio
“””Yes..."”” 3 children
Even if they are demon children, they are still my children. The impossible training is to break the body, and to increase the amount gradually.
“If you wash your hands, mommy will make you some juice."
“Really!? I\'ll wash it now!"
The three of them ran at a speed that they don\'t think is tiring. It\'s been a while, and it\'s changed. I really don\'t think they′re children.
“So, which book does Lychee want to read?"
“This."
Partly break, I read a book. It is a fairy tale of the Royal Road which is the origin of the novel that the nickel had read in old times that Lychee brought. The children gather on my knees while I sit cross-legged. It seems that Lychee took the middle today.
“Read it. Read it."
“Let\'s start reading it. This is a story from a long time ago..."
Lychee, who still is small and possesses the remnants of Lime, is pretty girly. His figure that looked up me from the bottom, especially. Not only his appearance, but also his gesture is something like a girl.... What would that be? While reading the story, Tsuru and Rio began to paddle with their bodies and began to sleep immediately. Lychee, on the other hand, is so absorbed that his eyes shine with glitter.
“...Then, the princess lived with the knight forever together. Happy ending."
“Waaa!”
Lychee claps with his small hands.
“Was it interesting?" Tsuchio
“Yes, now read another!" Lychee
“Another time. Does Lychee also want to be a knight?" Tsuchio
I was saying what Rio would want to be. Well, for a boy you are longing for a knight.
“No, Princess!" Lychee
“...What?” Tsuchio
“My favorite person will come to help!" Lychee
Oh, well. Can such a view be done? From such a thing, he is said that he wants to become a princess first of all and I am a little anxious about the future.
“Dad, would you come and help me if I got caught?" Lychee
“Of course, whatever the demon king is, I will come to rescue you." Tsuchio
“Ehehe, I love you father.” Lychee
After a while, Lychee fell asleep and I headed to the place of Lime. She was just about to fold the laundry.
“Hey, Lime.” Tsuchio
“What is it, father?” Lime
“Do Slimes have a gender?" Tsuchio
“What do you think? Until one possesses a certain ego, I think there is no difference between the sexes. I think he will become a boy properly if he grows." Lime
“I see..." Tsuchio
If Lime says so, it will be okay. Let\'s watch it closely.
“Papa, Play!"
“All right, what do we play?"
After having a nap and having lunch, we all play in the garden. What I\'m addicted to recently is the soccer battle I taught. Even if I say soccer, it is a play to take the ball from me.
“Ryaaa!”
“Tou.”
“Daa!”
“Look, I\'m going to be avoided in such a roundhouse."
I dodge Tsuru′s slide and avoid Lychee and Rio who are attacking from front and back. I have played soccer only as a play, but I am good enough to take on my children. Of course, I do not plan to hold back.
“I\'m going to take it today! Lychee and Rio, we\'re going to get together!”
“Yes!”
“If you take it from dad, you\'ll get what you like! Let\'s take it!"
“Mou, Tsuchio.... I wish I could take a little."
“You should not be too spoiled, I guess that is just right."
“That\'s right. Ruu is a little too sweet. Even if you\'re a little tougher, it\'s okay."
“I guess so?"
『Mothers are tough, is not it.』
And when the sun sets and dinner is eaten, it\'s time for the children to go to bed. In the bedroom, three children are together, it is different from us. Sometimes we sleep together, because they are my children.
“I couldn\'t get it today..."
“I\'ll definitely take it next time!"
“That\'s right, let\'s do it again next time."
“Father, do you work tomorrow?"
“I can not wait to play again… I\'m sorry."
“Uuh, alright. Good luck with your work."
“It\'s hard, huh? I want to be of help as soon as possible!"
“On days off, please read the book."
“Ah. Well, I will turn off the lights."
The room becomes dark when the candle light is turned off. I quietly left the room and closed the door quietly.
“It was like that." Tsuchio
“He certainly seems like a little girl to admire princesses..." Yukurishisu
“Lime is also saying that, but I am not worried so heavy though. Because there is a feminine man among my acquaintances..." Tsuchio
I\'m not saying that Rio doesn\'t want to be like Lucas, but...well, I wish he grows up without incidents, that\'s all I need.
“Then, please let me hear the story of Yukurishisu this time. It\'s useless to let me talk all the time." Tsuchio
“I know that. What shall I talk about..." Yukurishisu
Yukurishisu and I talked about our lives while listening until we felt sick.
