Demon Girl ~Tale of a Lax Demon~

-chan led us into the mansion.
The servants had gone in first before us, they must have hurried to inform mother and Viscount Carrow.
On the way there, I had a conversation with her and she mentioned that about half of the female escort knights had retired in the past two years, and now there were only eight of them left, including Bri and Sarah.
That means that the remaining kids may not even have a boyfriend, and I may have to find a groom for all of them.

’

We continued down the corridor in a vaguely excited mood and soon arrived at a gorgeous door.

“Yuru!”

“Mother!”

When we opened the door, we quickly ran to each other and we hugged each other tightly yearningly.
Mother is still fluffy and smells good just like in my memories.

“I’m glad you’re back.
I was worried about you.”

“I am sorry for making you worry……..
I am back.”

Well, people normally worried about me anyhow………

“Welcome back, Yuru-sama”

“Vio, I’m home.”

Vio was also present in the room.
She’s wearing a maid’s uniform as usual, but her belly is now big enough to be obvious even from a distance.

“You don’t seem to be surprised….
Did you hear from those three? Hmm, I’ll have to reprimand them later for going out without permission.”

“I really wanted to tell you myself that Yuru has a little brother now.”

“Ah! Oh, yes, please let me see my brother!”

When I said this with great excitement, Mom and Vio looked at each other expectedly, chuckled, and led me to the next room.

“Aa……”

“Babu!”

There was an adorable baby with blonde hair and pinkish gold eyes, just like me, slowly crawling in the crib.

“Aa?”

The baby sees me for the first time and tries to grab onto the bed grate, but fails and rolls over in a heap.

“This is your brother…… Cyril”

“Cyril”

Mother picked Cyril up and let me hold him in my arms.

’

“Aaaa..”

I don’t know if he’s just not afraid of things and strangers, but when I held him, he was curious and playfully pulling my sparkly gold hair.

It hurts, but it doesn’t hurt! I shouted with a high pitched voice as I did my best to hold down my excitement as much as I could because Cyril was just so cute.

“Wonderful! He’s going to be the most beautiful boy in the world!”

“……..Yuru”

For some reason, mother wore a distressed look.

“Yuru-sama, may I have a word with you?”

“Yes?”

After loving Cyril for a moment, Vio called out to me when I had finally calmed down.
I leave my mother and Cyril and go back to the first room, and Vio makes me a cup of tea.

Incidentally, my subordinates are in the hallway waiting for me to call upon them.
Rinne and the others were unaware of what happened because Fel and the others had led them towards the reception room.

“Once again, welcome back, Yuru-sama.
I’m so glad you’re safe and sound.”

“Yes.
Thank you”

All of a sudden, Vio makes a serious face.

“Yuru-sama, what I am about to tell you now is known to only a few in the duke’s household.
But I’ve decided to tell Yuru-sama about it.”

“…Yes, tell me about it.”

What happened I wonder? It must have been a big deal for Vio to say so much.

“The rebellion is thought to be led by the Southern Army and its supporters, including the Duke of Belrose.
However behind the rebellion, there are hints of a “royal member” “

Royal member…….

“………Who is it?”

“……………..”

At my querying words, Vio blinked once and slowly rubbed her brow.

“He is the younger brother of His Majesty the King and the fifth in line of succession to the throne.
He’s Yuru-sama’s great-uncle.”

’

“A,aah…”

It’s the first time I’m hearing about this.
But, if you actually think about it, there’s no way my grandfather was an only child.
Even my uncle, the first in line of succession to the throne, has been told that two sons are too few.

Come to think of it, I had a claim to the throne too.
I did wonder why I was sixth, but that royal great-uncle was actually the fifth?

“So you’re telling me that the king’s brother rebelled to take the throne away from my grandfather?”

“That’s what I think at least.
But we don’t know if it was the will of the King’s brother himself or the Duke of Bellrose is the one who instigated it.”

“I see…….”

I don’t know what his intentions are, but he has caused my father a lot of trouble.
Not only did he put a heavy burden on my mother who was still holding my little brother in her arms, he even made Vio, who is currently in her late pregnancy, come to faraway a place like this.

Fufufufufu.
I’ll let you know what happens when you mess with my family.

“Yu- Yuru-sama?”

“Hm? What is it?”

I guess I have been holding a vague and expressionless countenance so when I give Vio a wide smile she instantly looks relieved.

“As for Yuru-sama, I know you wouldn’t be quiet even if I tell you to not do anything.
But please don’t do anything reckless.
And…….if you could, please save my husband and the father of this child….”

As Vio was saying that, she was stroking her belly and her expression became affectionate and motherly.
As expected, Vio knows exactly what she’s doing.

“It’s okay.
Leave it to me.”

“………Normally I would have to reprimand you, but Yuru-sama’s words are more reassuring than anything else.
We look forward to your safe return.
…….
Would Yuru-sama like to name this child?”

“Oooo~”

Godmother! I’m getting a little excited.
