The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring

400 – 380.Epilogue-13

After spending a warm and intimate time with Ernia for the first time in 9 years.

She and I lay side by side on the bed and continued our pillow talk.

“By the way, when did Nena become pregnant and when did she give birth?”

“Do you remember the day you mixed Ignit’s body with Breeze to instill despair in her?”

“Is it really that time?”

“Yes! “I didn’t know it at the time, but she succeeded in getting pregnant right away.”

“Wait a minute, aren’t you saying you fought the gods while pregnant? Was it okay?”

“Fortunately, the curse of God did not reach it, and even though it suffered serious injuries, the egg it laid was very clean, without any cracks.”

Considering the humiliation Ernia had endured, her birth of Nena was close to a miracle.

Considering the physical damage inflicted on her pregnant mother and the psychological pain she suffered afterwards, it was not at all strange that she had miscarried.

The reason they are strong because they are dragons does not apply to hatchlings, which are not adults.

Isn’t it an ambiguous fetus to even call it a hatchling?

Nevertheless, Nena persevered and came out into the world.

“Nena is truly a great child. Not only was she spawned fine, but even after she hatched, she grew up as a lively child under my depressed self.”

“Even though she is still young, she is very brave and proud.”

“So I wanted to receive a lot of love on my behalf.”

“I’m saying this again, but I… ….”

“I know, no matter how much you are, you can’t replace me. “He loved me with all his heart even though he was embarrassed to show it to me, but if he still couldn’t come to his senses, it would be beyond salvation.”

“It’s good to know.”

“Woohuhu! From now on, I will never have doubts.”

Ernia blushes as she gently rubs her face against my shoulder.

The moment I reached out to her again in an act of affection, I heard her footsteps coming from beyond her bedroom.

I was able to tell who the owner of the footsteps was because the footsteps were unstoppable.

I quickly picked up the clothes I had thrown away and put them on.

“That’s right! Did I tear your clothes? Even my coat…….”

“Yes?”

Unlike me, who moves in a hurry, Ernia made her dress out of her own scales.

She decorated her empty right eye with a flower-shaped eyepatch.

Then she tilted her head as if there was some problem.

It was a sad part because I was human.

“Mom! Dad!”

I managed to get dressed in time and greeted Nena who came back with a bright smile.

After playing outside, she was much more smiley than when we first met.

“What did Nena bring?”

“Well? “What did you bring?”

“hehehe! Ta-a-an!”

Nena took her hand out from behind her back and showed us a wreath made of woven flowers and boasted.

There were a total of 3 wreaths, and each one had a different weaving technique, showing that Nena, Mary, and Zeke were also made together.

It was because of Meryl’s consideration that Nena brought all the flower crowns made by other children.

This is a street that was given over so that me, Ernia, and Nena could have a good time.

“First, Dad!”

Nena runs towards me with a bright smile.

Nena jumped up and landed on my forearm and placed a wreath on my head.

“Next, Mom!”

Yes, I jumped down from her forearm without any hesitation, and this time she ran towards Ernia.

She was held in her mother’s arms the same way as when I was with her. I approached her and placed a wreath on her head.

“The last one is Nena!”

The remaining wreath, of course, belongs to Nena.

After putting the wreath on her head, Nena came down from Ernia’s arms.

Instead, she grabbed Ernia’s hand with her cute hand and dragged her towards me.

Then, as if it were her natural thing to do, she held onto my hand with her other hand and smiled.

“Hee hee! “Dad, Mom, and even Nena are all here!”

It was a family that had finally come together as one after 9 years.

To put it another way, it means that he never came to see his wife and daughter for 9 years.

Yes, it wasn’t strange that she hated me like this, but she didn’t care at all and accepted me with a smile.

As the two emotions, joy and guilt, came and went, my mind became complicated in many ways.

But I couldn’t keep a gloomy expression in front of my daughter who was so happy, so I continued to say the words I had hesitated to say.

“You know, Ernia. “Would you like to leave here and live at my house in the snowy mountains?”

“But the north is Breeze’s territory, right?”

“That’s right, but there’s no particular problem with two dragons coexisting, right? It’s not like we’re fighting over territory. And for my part, I hope Nena gets along well with her other siblings.”

“Nena’s younger brothers… ….”

According to Ernia’s words, she will be the first to become pregnant among the relationships between her and mine.

Although Nena’s age is the same as her eldest daughter, Ruri, she was born a little earlier.

Therefore, all the children in our house, including the eldest child, become her younger siblings.

“It’s not coercion. I just thought it would be better for them to stay together, seeing Nena outside playing with her younger siblings like now. And there might be someone who knows how to remove the curse on your body.”

“I see. We shouldn’t let Nena experience loneliness forever just because she’s afraid to reveal herself. “I will move the nest to the north.”

“Really?”

“Not really. “You decided not to hesitate anymore, right?”

With Ernia’s great determination, I think she will finally be able to stay with me too.

For those at home, it may be a bit awkward to suddenly have a new family member, but that’s okay.

Except for her children, everyone is different from Ernia, and in Nena’s case, she has a good personality, so she will be able to quickly adapt and become friends with others.

As I was smiling in anticipation of her future, Ernia suddenly whispered to me softly.

“Instead, you should love me as much as you did today♡ Did you know?”

“Ah!”

Pleasant responsibilities have increased again.

***

She decided to live with Ernia, but of course no preparations were made for the move.

So she told him to go back first so that she could pack up her belongings and then pick him up separately, so Meryl said she would stay behind and help her pack up.

She offered to help me too, but Meryl stubbornly refused, saying one person was enough.

The kids were so upset that they wanted to play more with Nena, whom they had just become friends with, that I ended up leaving alone.

‘I still have time, so I should go see what he’s up to.’

Even if I don’t pay much attention to it, he will be eating well and living well.

But just like Ernia’s case, I don’t know how he may have changed.

To see it with my own eyes, I left for the forest twisted with chaos.

“It’s been a long time since I came here.”

“Wow?”

“What is this forest doing? “It’s complicated to explain, but as the name suggests, it’s a twisted forest.”

Chaos tilted his head as if he was even more uncertain.

I didn’t want to explain it in detail because it was complicated.

But Chaos, who was very curious, grabbed the leg of my pants and wouldn’t let go.

It means explain properly and then leave.

“It is called a twisted forest because it is a forest that creates twisted s*xual desires. To put it simply, it is a forest where heterogeneous species are common.”

“King!”

He snorted as if chaos was not that big of a deal.

Contrary to expectations, it was noticed that the s*xual desire was not distorted.

“Our love also tends to fall into the axis of twisted s*xual desire?”

“Awaken?!”

Chaos was shocked, thinking that it was not pure love.

For me, the chaotic behavior that I took for granted was a little shocking.

“It is difficult to say that the love between humans and evil spirits is pure in the world.”

“Kwiuung… !”

“Don’t be too upset. “That doesn’t mean I don’t love you.”

“Wow! Wow! Wow!”

Now that I have realized that it is a twisted s*xual desire, the confusion that tempts me to think about making a fourth child in the forest.

Unfortunately, since there was work to do from now on and it was not a full moon, Chaos was unable to become pregnant.

Postponing the fourth until next time, I entered the forest with chaos and proceeded to the lake.

“It must be near this lake…….”

“Wow?”

“Huh? “Where is it?”

“King!”

Where Chaos’ cute paw is pointing.

There, I saw a young man chopping wood as hard as ever today.

Of course, it’s not like cutting down a tree with an axe. He was drilling a hole in the tree with a pole between his crotches.

“I can’t believe there was so much water hidden inside the stiff stem! “As soon as I shake my back, water comes pouring out!”

“… ….”

“Lustful tree b*tch! Give birth to a human child!”

“Oh my God.”

What on earth turned Kang Jun-hyuk into such a monster?

At least I could understand it if it meant mixing with the tree spirit Dryad.

But now, he was a debaucher who played wildly with trees without any tofu.

“Okay, let’s go back.”

“Wow… ….”

That was when Kang Jun-hyuk, who had turned into a crazy person, started to get scared and was about to go back.

As luck would have it, he ended up making eye contact with him.

“hehehe, hehehe…” ! hahahahaha!”

Kang Jun-hyuk suddenly starts laughing like a crazy person.

There was a smile on his face that seemed to be mocking me.

“It’s too late, you idiot! I have already eaten all the trees here! “They’re all non-virgins!”

“Uh… “Yeah, really?”

“They are all b*tches who have fallen in love with my masterpiece! What I am saying is that there is no tree anywhere that would give you your first experience!”

“I see.”

My tears were salty.

I’ve hit swords and undead before, but they were all human beings.

On the other hand, the trees that were intertwined with Kang Jun-hyuk had no personality, let alone speech.

But in his eyes, she seemed to be a woman with a dark side, so it was obvious that even if I told her the reality, he would turn a blind eye.

My eyes widened at Kang Jun-hyuk’s situation, but he mistakenly thought I was crying because the tree was taken away.

“hahahahaha! You are so angry! “If you kneel down in front of me and pray right now, I can give you at least an old, uneaten tree, right?”

“No, that’s enough. “I’ll just go now.”

“You coward! If you come out like that, the trees will be taken from me! Ha ha ha!”

I came out of the forest, leaving Kang Jun-hyuk behind.

I felt truly fortunate that I did not face such an end.

If the time comes for me to die, I will at least do so with integrity.

***

The VIP room of the Demon King’s Castle.

Four women were discussing the country and the situation in this place, where only those with permission could enter.

They have ridiculous titles such as the Queen of the Holden Kingdom, Jinjo, Demon King, and Orharkon Queen Ant.

We gathered together, had a serious meeting, discussed, and came up with a plan.

“Is this the extent of today’s agenda?”

“Yes, I think this will continue the relationship between the Holden Kingdom and the Demon Spirit. “Thank you for the other two comments as well.”

“Jim just drank his tea and said what came into his head.”

“I’m also unfamiliar with politics, so it probably wouldn’t have been of much help.”

“There is no need for either of you to be humble. “By adding additional elements to their solution, I was able to completely strengthen it.”

The girls chatter and laugh in a friendly atmosphere.

The change in the atmosphere started with just one word.

“Well, now that we’ve finished today’s meeting without incident, shall we go and meet Lord Bern?”

“””Wow~!”””

Bern was also destined to die gracefully.
