The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken - Chapter 44
44 – The Demon King’s Daughter (Encounter) – 1
The princess I had just seen a few days ago, I was reunited with such a princess.
I don’t think we met through good things, but this reunion happened again.
But, I didn’t feel so heavy.
At that time, I was just about to kill him, but I didn’t have any intention of doing that now.
After all, I only came because I wanted to settle things peacefully with the princess.
‘Will it really be easily solved?’
But, I was worried about that for a while.
What if the princess just said she wouldn’t go back?
I expected that things would become complicated for no reason, and that I would be bothered by various things, but…
Fortunately, that didn’t appear to be the case.
“I’ll… go back…! It’s because Anastasia doesn’t seem to be here.”
As soon as she saw me, Lesia quickly gave orders to the army.
I was a little worried about conflict with her, but it didn’t seem like it would happen.
Unexpectedly, Lesia backed away so easily.
“Hmm…”
After the princess’s order was given, everything else went smoothly.
The troops quickly began to withdraw, they soon turned back the way they came and headed for the Empire.
As for me looking at such an empire…
“No really, why did you come to the deal?”
To be honest, it was so bland.
If this was going to happen, I’d rather not come, or something came and told me not to do anything and leave, so it was absurd.
But, well, for me, there are no useless disputes, so it must be fine.
Thinking that good is good, I headed home again.
“Hero. What happened outside?”
When I got home like that, I was able to see Anastasia, who had been waiting for me without sleeping.
Anastasia tilted her head and asked as if asking where she had been.
“No, no. Let’s go to sleep.”
I didn’t feel the need to explain to Anastasia, so I just tried to go home properly.
No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t feel the need to explain anything.
“Thank you. Warrior.”
As expected, there was no need for an explanation as I expected.
So this simple happening was finished.

And time passed, and already three days had passed.
Finally, the hour came when Anastasia decided to leave our house as promised.
‘Ehh. If I decided to go after a week, it would have been really annoying.’
And by this time, the events of three days had passed through my mind.
Anastasia, who doesn’t really get tired of it every day, and works hard next to me.
It was clear how annoying she was, that 3 days was a very tiring time for me.
So I felt like I was waiting for Anastasia to leave.
“Huang. Goodbye sister.”

My sister Lili didn’t seem to be like that.
Lili hugged Anastasia who was about to leave and shed a lot of tears.
When I heard that Anastasia was leaving, I was sad as if my real sister was leaving.
“Don’t be discouraged wherever you go, eat healthy and eat well.”
Seeing things like that, I couldn’t help but feel that Anastasia’s sociability was amazing.
The Lili I know is never the type to give affection to others easily.
There are only two people Lily gives affection to, me and my childhood friend Arne, but even in Arne’s case, I’m not that friendly, it feels like we’re fighting a little.
Ah… I suddenly thought of Arne. By the way, where is Arne?
When I came back, they said they went somewhere for a while, but I don’t know where it is.
Anyway, that’s why Lily is a really picky and hard-to-approach younger sister, and to be able to capture such a younger sister in three days…
I thought it was really scary.
“Brother, let’s just let Anastasia live in our house.”
No, it would be more accurate to say that it gives goosebumps beyond being scary.

My sister looking at me and begging me very earnestly.
No matter how you look at it, Lily’s words seemed so sincere.
“That’s not allowed.”
I had no choice but to refuse with a single knife.
Lili doesn’t realize at all how serious her words are.
No matter how earnestly he begged, he could never grant this request.
That was something that would never happen.
“Lily. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. But I also have a place to go. I’ll come visit you next time.”
“Huh…”
And fortunately, Anastasia didn’t seem to have much intention of being here either.
You said you were preparing to raise a rebellion centered on the western city right now, right?
I had heard of Anastasia’s plan to some extent.
It’s a busy time right now, but he said he came because he really wanted to come here for three days before he got busier.
“Then I’ll go.”
Anyway, when it was time to leave for real, Lili went into the house saying that she would not be able to see Anastasia leaving.
I was naturally left alone with Anastasia.
“I’ll see you with a more proper look next time, warrior. I will successfully recapture the empire.”
“Sure.”
Anastasia says that if someone hears it there, it will be a big deal.
She waved at me and left.
I also returned home after a while.
“Hmm… I’ll have to prepare myself soon.”
Thus, all three days of happenings came to an end.
The two princesses came to our village for a while and something big but not so big happened.
Now that these happenings are over, I can do my own thing.
The work to defeat the demon king, the work to obtain the holy sword.

“Is it three days from now?”
In fact, at first glance, you would think that I was resting leisurely in the village now that the Demon King was resurrected, but in fact, that was not the case.
Even now, I am always thinking about how I can win against the demon lord, and I wanted to prepare for it right away.
But, the reason why I am here inevitably.
It was actually close to what I was waiting for.
“The time for the fairyland to open.”
In order to get the holy sword, you have no choice but to go to the country of the fairies, but the country of the fairies is not a place you can go to anytime.
A place where you can go from a specific place on a specific day is the land of fairies.
I was waiting for the time to go there, and the time was just around the corner.
“I’ll have to leave soon for the land of fairies, too.
Go there and get the holy sword again.
The existence of a holy sword that is absolutely necessary to face the demon king.
With that holy sword, I defeat the demon lord.
That’s what I’m trying to do now…
I had to solve the biggest problem for him now.
“Huh… oppa, where are you going again?”
its biggest problem.
That was to convince my crying sister.
“Where are you going? Why are you going? Can I not go?”
From Liri’s point of view, who was tearing me apart and crying and crying, telling me not to go, it seemed so sad that I was going.
Well, I knew Lili’s heart better than anyone else.

My brother, who came back after a few years, said he was going somewhere again, and that he might come back sometime.
It wasn’t that I didn’t know.
but.
“Lily. I’ll be right back. Oppa promises. I’ll buy you lots of delicious food and lots of presents.”
Still, it was true that I had to go somehow.
I did everything I could to appease Lily.
As if it really couldn’t be helped, as if asking for a little understanding, he comforted Lili by saying that he would come back soon.
“Okay. But do I have to come back healthy?”
In the end, Lili had no choice but to understand.
Even so, it was an expression that I couldn’t understand while crying.
“Of course. I’ll come back healthy unconditionally.”
I should at least give Lili a face like telling her not to worry.
“Then I’ll go.”
Before it hurts any more, I decided to leave.
Leaving behind Lili waving her hand, I left my hometown again.
Headed to the World Tree, where there is a passage to the Fairy Land.
The village where the elves live, once you have to go there, you can go to the country where the fairies live.
That’s why I was on my way there.
“Why don’t you come out now?”
I could find a person, or a being, following me.
The existence that follows me from behind and watches over me all day long.
I paused and spoke to it.
“Since when did you know?”
“From the beginning.”
“…”
As expected, he said as he came down from behind a nearby tree.
The existence with demonic horns and tails didn’t seem very friendly to me.
“So who are you? I didn’t seem to have any hostility towards me, so I left it alone, but why did you come looking for me?”
However, there seemed to be no hostility.
If there was hostility, I would have applied the attack instead of calling it out like this, but it didn’t seem like there was any hostility, so I didn’t touch it.
But I didn’t mean to keep following him.
It wasn’t pleasant for me to keep following him like this.
So I had no choice but to ask.
About why the demons are following me now.
The demon woman thought about that question for a moment, then took a deep breath and answered the question.
“… My name is Trina.”
A demonic woman who reveals her name.
“The Demon King’s successor. The Demon Princess, the Demon King’s daughter, Trina.”
He also told me who he was.
“yes…?”
but what?
A demon king’s daughter?
