Chapter 104 – Hey, humans are really cunning!
Chapter 102
Is this guy betraying the demon lord and saying he’ll help me?
…You’re talking nonsense.
I was about to strike the holy sword. Then Mother shrugged and shouted.
“Gee, for real! Really don’t tell me everything! You can take me with you, I won’t even build a nest for you! So save me!!”
…A bit tempting?
“…Are you sure that is true?”
“That, yes…”
“By the way, the first order implanted in your head by your mouth earlier is the breeding and childbirth of monsters. Can you refuse that order?”
“I-I can’t deny it, but it can’t be helped if there is no nest…”
“Hmm.”
But it’s still a monster. What if you get hit in the back?
“Sometimes my father directly orders me to catch you, and then I will tell you everything in advance! So buy it, save it!”
…Will you be my bio alarm?
Mother bowed his head and fell flat on the floor. It was the kind of posture that I used to call ‘Dogeza’ where I was.
The gap with the North Queen I saw last time is too big, so I can’t get used to it. Is he really mother?
I quietly watched Mother’s behavior. It’s like the way I looked earlier, I don’t think I’m lying. Do you really just want to live?
“Do you still want to live like that?”
“Who would want to die? I am also a life. It is natural for a living being to have a desire to survive…”
“That’s right.”
However, I never thought that would apply to a monster like Mother.
What should I do? If you take it alive like this, it will definitely help. If I’m dragging around, I won’t be able to build a nest anywhere. Mother itself’s fighting power is remarkably low, so it’s not even a threat to me.
“I need a guarantee that you won’t be stabbed.”
“…Bo, guaranteed?”
“Yes. I am human and you are a monster. Trust between each other isn’t that easy, is it? In order for trust to arise between us, of course we need something to guarantee it, right?”
“Yes, it is. I understand.”
Mother nodded to him and then suddenly slammed him on the chest. Like someone trying to vomit.
“…What are you doing?”
“Keck, cool, ki, wait.”
“What are you waiting for?”
“Wow.”
“Yai-san, dirty!… Huh?”
Mother, who was hitting her chest, vomited something of her own. She had a new red round thing rolling down from her mouth.
“Me, I don’t eat anything, so there is no vomit. So it’s not dirty…”
“What is this?”
“My heart…”
“What? Heart?”
This is Mother’s heart? More like a bead than a heart.
“Wait a minute, how are you alive when you don’t have a heart?”
From noble mtl dot com.
“Don’t listen until the end. I was trying to explain that it is an object connected to the heart, but you stopped talking.”
“Um…”
That’s not wrong. But I don’t like talking back.
As I slowly lifted the Holy Sword, Mother crouched down, covering my head.
“Hee, hee!! Why, why are you doing this! If you have it, you can kill me if you want!”
“Really? Then you can’t fool me?”
“Yeah, that’s right…”
“But how do I believe that this bead is connected to your heart?”
“…You, why don’t you believe in people’s words? In case you lived only being betrayed…”
Swipe.
“Hey! Oh no! I think I misunderstood something!!”
“Well, I knew it once. This will be a guarantee that you will not betray me.”
“So, are you going to save me?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you! Thank you so much!”
Mother bowed her head and thanked me.
If it had been Mother who had harmed people, he would have killed them mercilessly, but he says he has never gone out of the forest and never done any harm…
I should take it with me and use it as a bio alarm and informant.
“Hmm, but…”
“Why, why?”
“I can’t take you with me in that state.”
“Ah, ah… You mean this. This is fine It’s just a protective outer upper, so you can take it off.”
“Huh?”
Outer upper?
“You can take it off? Was it something like clothes?”
“Yes, yes. So stay back a bit. I am ashamed to show my body to humans.”
“Hmm, then what about your eyes? It’s a reverse idea.”
“This, this is also an outer upper to protect the sclera…”
…What’s with the outer upper? Come to think of it, these gray uppers of the mothers were also hanging down like hair for something that looked hard and solid.
Uh, then…
“Then what did you look like inside?”
“Hmm?…I think he looks similar to a human.”
“What?”
…What did I just hear?
#
While Mother took off her uppers, I waited, fiddling with the orb connected to her heart in her hand.
“All, all done.”
“…Really.”
Mother, who took off all of her uppers…Just like she said, looks very much like a human, no, just looks the same. Not knowing that it was Mother, it was a small human girl with her light blue hair hanging down. Her body is covered in clothes that look like matting.
The internal structure is completely different, but the exterior is so similar.
Why did it look like this in the first place? There are humanoid monsters, but those that look like Goliaths or Orcs are completely different. However, the fact that the mother who gave birth to such monsters resembled a human was puzzling.
“Do all your mothers look like that?”
“Yes, everyone is different. There are no humans who look the same.”
“Then they all look like humans? What if you take off the outer upper?”
“Yes, yes.”
…Suddenly I feel uneasy. If my ben mothers were not wearing outer uppers and looked like this, I might have hesitated to cut them. It was so human-like in appearance.
“Why do you resemble a human?”
“I don’t know that…Only the Father who created us knows…”
“…Well.”
I don’t think Estelle knows that Mother resembles a human.
“You have to pretend to be human somewhere else.”
“Oh, I got it.”
“But I have my colleagues. I will tell them.”
“Ugh, huh?”
“If my comrades object to taking you, I could kill you right away. Are you okay though?”
“Now, wait a minute. Didn’t you say you would save me?”
“You saved me. But if my girlfriends don’t want it, I’ll have to kill them.”
“Woah, as expected, humans are so cunning! To give me hope and to give me despair…!”
Mother shouted loudly at the warning that he might kill him. However, I dealt with Mother who ran amok.
Sereung.
“Hee, hee!!! Now, I was wrong! I can’t speak…!”
…This is kind of funny.
“Abel, what are you doing? I heard something outside.”
Perhaps it was because I hadn’t been out for a long time, Estelle and Celine walked into the nest.
“Ah, Estelle. Are you here?”
“Mother took care of… Wait, what else is that b*tch?”
“Oh, boy? Mother.”
“…Yes?”
Estel had a puzzled look on her face. And Celine, who followed, asked the same question, and I gave the same answer.
“…Mother? No matter how you look at it, it can’t be just a person… Right? It must be strange that there are people in a nest like this.”
The last time he said it calmly and rationally, but Celine still looked confused.
Honestly, it deserves it. Well, I’ve been possessed in this world for about five months now, but the two people here have lived here all their lives. It must feel like their common sense has been broken.
“They said the previous look was the outer upper.”
“…But why are you doing this with Mother? Aren’t you going to kill me?”
“Hick!”
At Estelle’s words, Mother held her head. Estelle and Celine’s expressions hardened at the same time. It was as if a question mark had popped up over my head.
“It’s a bit long to explain…”
I explained to Estelle and Celine the stories I had with MOTHER. Of course, except for the story that the demon king is targeting me. When we talked about being able to get information about monster attacks and orders from the demon lord while taking Mother along, Estelle said firmly.
“It’s fine. Do we need that information enough to take the risk of taking the monster with us?”
“Wouldn’t it help subdue the demon lord?”
“…Do you know where the Demon King is?”
“Yes?”
What are you talking about? One of the reasons there are heroes is to subdue the demon lord.
However, Estelle gave a completely different answer than I expected.
“Nobody knows exactly where the Demon King is staying. Because he never found it.”
“…Yes?”
“If you had discovered the Demon King, wouldn’t it be natural for all of humanity to make every effort to subdue it? I can’t put my hands on it because I don’t know. That’s why the warriors keep going here and there.”
…That’s right. If you know the location of the demon king, you can go straight there, but no hero does that. I thought it was simply because of my lack of skills, but it seems that wasn’t the case.
“Hey, don’t you know where you are?”
“Ugh, huh? No… I don’t know Only a few people know where my father is…”
What should I do? It’s already useless.
…Kill?
“Who is in the minority?”
“Kyu, older sisters with large nests must know…”
Celine listened to Mother’s answer and narrowed her eyes.
“Then, in the end, this mother doesn’t even know where the Demon King is. It’s useless, hero?”
“Yeah, but if there is anything dangerous about this guy, I can let you know!”
“…Yes?”
You idiot, what should I say about that!
“…It sounds like you can tell me when there is a monster attack.”
“Ah.”
I showed Mother the way she fidgeted with the holy sword. It meant talking in moderation. Then Mother trembled and covered his head.
“Hee, hee!”
“…Why are you doing this?”
“They were afraid of me. Is it because I cut my hair?”
Looking at it now, the long, light blue hair was cut irregularly. Some strands are long, some strands are short… And sh*t. Who would have made that?
“…Do you want to take Abel with you?”
“Wouldn’t it be useful? And I’m holding this guy’s life. This is connected to Mother’s heart, and if you break it, she will die too.”
“…You want to live that far?”
“I think it’s a bit peculiar, too. I’m sure I have a lifeline anyway, so wouldn’t it be better to use it if I can use it?”
Because I’ve never seen a reaction like this from another mother. Estelle looked at Mother quietly and let out a sigh.
“It’s a woman again. Not even human this time…”
“Yes?”
“…No.”
Estel looked over at Mother and said.
“Yes, if what Abel is saying is true, she doesn’t seem to have ever harmed a human being… She must be of some use.”
“Oh, do you understand?”
“…If I don’t understand Abel, who will?”
“hehehe… Huh?”
…Wait a minute, that sounds like I’m a very peculiar person.
“By the way… It’s easy to get misunderstood if you take him around like that. Just by looking at her appearance like this, she’s a girl who’s perfect.”
“Um.”
It certainly is. Should I put my clothes on straight? Don’t be fooled like that.
“I should buy some clothes.”
“I also need a name. If we take them around, there won’t be a problem with their status, but there will still be times when we need to introduce ourselves.”
“Oh, I see.”
I asked Mother.
“What is your name?”
“This, your name? There is no such thing…”
“No, didn’t your dad build it for you?”
“Oh, I can’t believe my father will build something like that… My father is a very busy man. In the first place, how many entities like me are under my father’s command, so can you name them one by one?”
Since you say that with that look, you feel like an orphan without a name…
“Why, why are you looking at me like that!? I have never been uncomfortable with not having a name!”
“…Yes, I guess.”
“Really!”
“Then, is there a name you want?”
“…Well, well. I never thought about it.”
Hmm. Blue hair, yellow eyes…
“Skygold.”
“…I don’t know the names of the humans, but I know they’re strange names.”
“What?”
Sereung.
“Hey! Oh no! What a wonderful name! mmm!”
“Abel, don’t play around and decide properly.”
…That’s right.
I clutched my chin and closed my eyes, contemplating. It’s really hard to come up with a name. First of all, the name of the world in this novel was a Western name…
“… Let’s call it ‘Alicia’.”
“Not too bad. Abel’s sense is quite good♡”
“Isn’t it? It seemed like a good name to me too.”
I said to Mother.
“I will call you Alicia from now on. Should I react properly and naturally? When I have something to introduce you, I just need to say this name.”
“Oh, I got it.”
Alicia nodded her head a couple of times. I smiled with satisfaction and put her Holy Sword back on my back.
“Then let’s go soon. We have about a week left, right?”
“Yes. Now you have to enter the country so you can arrive at Bonaparte City.”
Wouldn’t it be nice to buy some presents on the way? For now, it would be better to return to the Kingdom of Vesta.
“Then let’s go!”
