HeroxMaou

Leaving Cecilia in the living room, Oliver stood in front of the mansion.

hi~

Outside the entrance way and past the garden, in front of the gate. As if to not allow any escape, a crowd of humans bearing weapons stood there. Good work on going to all that trouble to come with such a large number of people.

gokurousama

Wryly smiling at the faces he hasn’t seen in about a month, Oliver asked, ‘Do you need something?’ Oliver’s tone was very light, but he held the sword at his waist.

If anything happens, I won’t hold back——Oliver’s blue eyes were implying that.

Particularly to Cecilia

The party members he had gone to the demon lord’s castle with and soldiers dispatched from the castle have come to his mansion.

It seems it is common knowledge that Oliver has brought the demon lord——Cecilia into the mansion, everyone seemed to be glaring at Oliver.

It seems they really do not like the fact that he had brought Cecilia home.

guard her!

“What is the meaning of this, Oliver!!”

“That’s the demon lord right!?”

yes

The first one that raised his voice was Aorith. As someone with double the sense of justice as others, he is very angry that Oliver had not defeated the demon lord. Since he was tightly clenching his fists, blood was starting to ooze out.

Irina also raised her voice like Aorith, unable to believe it.

Why did he keep the demon lord alive, why did he bring her home. They questioned him and eventually Aorith demanded ‘bring out the demon lord’, but Oliver shook his head sideways.

Why must he let such a violent-looking angry man lay eyes on that cute Cecilia? He wants to just shut her in his mansion without showing her to anyone.

……yandere?

Seeing Oliver and the others glare at each other, Elena’s shoulders slumped, wondering why this happenned. As the princess, she had to mediate, so she opened her mouth to speak.

aren’t you the source

“Eer, Oliver. Right now, what is the demon lord doing?”

“I think she’s resting.”

waiting

While soothing Aorith, she carefully chose her words so as to not provoke Oliver and called out to him.

negotiation skills?

“……have you forgotten the task we received from Father, no, the king?”

“It’s not that I forgot.”

“Then, please hand over the demon lord to us.”

nein

Even when she tried saying that it’s because it’s an order, Oliver still shook his head, refusing to do it. Seeing that, Elena bit her lips tightly.

now what?

Having been constantly worried about Oliver who had suddenly kidnapped the demon lord, she felt uneasy that he was a.s.serting that he won’t hand her over. What exactly happened to Oliver?

When told that she is just resting, Elena could only be confused.

what else?

“Eer, Oliver, what do you intend to do with the demon lord?”

“What do I intend to do——?”

yes

Oliver was horribly shaken by Elena’s words.

…you didn’t think about it

What exactly does he want to do Cecilia? Until now he had not clearly thought about it. Right now, she was just cute, so cute that he couldn’t help it.

He wants her, to be by his side.

just keep her?

——what do I intend to do, huh.

In the morning, he wants to be the first to say good morning to her.

He wants to brush his teeth standing next to her in the washroom and also wants to prepare her breakfast.

When there is work, he wants her to see him off from the entrance way.

To make sure she definitely doesn’t get lonely, he will quickly finish his work and come home.

And then Cecilia who had been making dinner would come to greet him in the entrance way in an ap.r.o.n.

And then she would say ‘Do you want dinner? Do you want a bath? Or——“——

never

“——…….Aah, she’s too cute!!”

“O, Oliver?”

delusionary

Tightly clenching his fist, Oliver was knocked out by Cecilia’s cuteness.

Elena was worried about what was wrong with him, but that didn’t matter to Oliver. Right now, he mind was too full of Cecilia.

calm down

While the party members were bewildered, a low voice was directed at Oliver from among the soldiers.

“Excuse me. Oliver-sama, please hand over the demon lord.”

“Captain…….”

leader

One of the soldiers that were standing by stepped forward. His robust body seemed to display his position.

As the captain of the soldiers, he has been ordered by the king to capture the demon lord. He had thought that Oliver would immediately hand over the demon lord——-but the signs seemed strange.

He had decided that leaving it to Elena any further would take too much time. So he hastily stepped forward and said it directly.

won’t help

Elena backed off a little and yielded the front to the captain.

There was a tense air as they watched what Oliver would do. But without seeming to care, Oliver shook his head.

Even if it is from the captain or a royal order, Oliver will not nod.

good

“I cannot do that.”

“Why is that so?”

“Eeeeh? Why? Because Cecilia is my precious person.”

“…………huh?”

not yours

Everyone there raised their voice.

Is this what it means for eyes to become dots? Voices of ‘beloved?’ came from here and there. The dozens of soldiers all frowned, unable to hide their confusion.

And the most confused among them, was Elena.

accept it

“E, Er. Oliver, what does that mean?”

“What? Exactly as it means.”

“Exactly as……..”

yes

Does that mean, you like her?

Elena almost asked that, but stopped. She felt that if Oliver said yes, she wouldn’t be able to recover.

critical hit

Percious person. Even though he said that himself, Oliver couldn’t help smiling at those words.

Ah, I want to hurry up and go back inside. What is Cecilia doing right now. Those kind of thoughts kept going through his head.

pay attention

“——does that mean, you cannot hand over the demon lord to us?”

“Yes.”

yep

In response the captain’s question, Oliver answered instantly.

Hand over the demon lord? That’s ridiculous. There is no way I can let my cute Cecilia be brought to that fat king by these threatening soldiers. Impossible!

mmhm

“Oliver-sama. This is an order from his majesty. Do you intend to deny his majesty’s orders?”

“…………”

ofc

Once again, the captain asked to confirm it. But Oliver didn’t say anything. Because the answer would definitely be yes. No matter what the king says, or what G.o.d says, he has no intention of letting go of Cecilia.

good…..?

“Cecilia is more precious to me than the king, so it can’t be helped right?”

priorities

Hearing Oliver say that as if it was obvious, the captain’s face reddened with anger.

boom

“Were you not an excellent hero!?”

not really

Certainly, Oliver was excellent. His strength as the hero, his connections, there was nothing that could be criticised.

lack of gf?

The captain laid a hand on the sword at his waist. Oliver adjusted his grip on his sword. If they fought one on one, the captain would unmistakably lose.

But, since it was a royal order, the captain did not have the option of just going back. Just as the captain was about to draw his sword——Elena’s voice cut in.

stahp

“Please come to your senses, Oliver!!”

“I’m the same as usual though.”

no you aren’t

With both hands spread out, Elena stood between Oliver and the captain. She pleaded, we should not be fighting.

Elena thought that they must have been affected by the demon lord’s miasma or something. In that case, she might be able to heal it.

She tried to cast healing magic——but there was nothing strange. Oliver narrowed his eyes and looked at Elena.

*glare*

“…….Elena, I am most definitely sane.”

“But, but…….Oliver. It’s strange, for you to keep the demon lord in your home.”

mad with love

Isn’t it impossible that the hero is tricked by the demon lord? That was what Oliver was saying. Even so, Elena thought there must be something. Otherwise she couldn’t understand the reason Oliver would be this attached the demon lord.

ai da!

“——for today, could you all go home already?”

cecilia is waiting

Oliver said that and reached out to his sword.

He didn’t want any more of his time with Cecilia to be stolen.

Drawing his sword from its sheath, he swung it once. With just the wind from that, they all fell backwards and their stance crumbled. With pale faces, the soldiers’ legs trembled.

yep, he”s a monster

“Th, th th, this is the hero’s power!?”

“This is ridiculous, in too many ways!”

yep

Seeing multiple soldiers run away, Oliver opened his mouth.

more?

“Next time, I will swing seriously.”

“…….!”

…..okay

With narrowed eyes, he glared at them.

His voice that was a lot lower and colder than usual indicated that he was serious.

run~

“It can’t be, that’s a lie…….Oliver.”

“Elna, come here. Let’s go back for today?”

never come bck~

Irina supported Elna and backed off.

The other members also seemed vexed, but chose to back off for today. They understood that n.o.body could defeat Oliver once he got serious.

With tears in her eyes as she was dragged off by Irina, Elna left Oliver’s home.

They finally went back, with that thought, Oliver watched them leave.

bye~

“——wanting Cecilia, this is not funny.”

yandere?

If he handed her over, what would happen to her? Disgraced and killed? She would surely meet a worse fate than that.

After all, she is the demon lord.

she never did anything tho

Wanting to quickly see Cecilia’s face, Oliver hurried back to the living room.

He wondered what she was doing alone, but her presence was indeed there. He wanted to quickly see Cecilia’s face, be told ‘welcome back’.

not happening

“Cecily——……!”

shush

As he entered the living room, calling out her name, his legs froze.

While curled up on the soft sofa, her eyes were closed. Moving forward slowly so as to not wake her, he stared at Cecilia’s face.

And her white thighs entered his eyes. Since she was curled up, her skirt was slightly lifted and Cecilia’s white skin peeked through from that gap.

He involuntarily covered his face with his hand and averted his gaze.

….okay

And then felt the urge to play a small prank.

not okay

“——sleeping?”

“……I’m awake.”

“I see. That’s good…….”

very

——shame.

Cecilia’s ability to sense danger is probably quite high. While smiling, Oliver moved closer to Cecilia with a ‘I’m back.’

stay wai prv

“…………”

——It would be nice if she would say ‘welcome back’ one day.

While thinking that, Oliver smiled affectionately at Cecilia.
