Chapter 262: A Rare Peace

"Ah~~ It's okay little love, you're so cute~

Mom loved it~"

"No, it's not! …… It's this skirt! …”

"Then ...... Well, this one, right? ”

Shenqi didn't argue much, but picked up a piece of clothing, and Ellie, who thought she would get a long dress, found that her mother had a shorter skirt in her hand, which was shorter than the current one.

I looked at it and barely covered my thighs.

"Nope! Mother-sama! Aren't there any pants or anything like that! ”

"Of course there is... However, they were all accidentally burned out by fire yesterday. ”

Looking at Erli, who was a little annoyed, Shenqi deliberately put her fist against her head, but in exchange for a resentful look from Erli.

“…… Staring..."

"Okay, let's go, little love~"

As a result, Shenqi directly ignored her eyes and hugged Erli directly.

……

……

……

"The wounds that can be inflicted by the creatures of the East... Hmm, looks like you've been through some hard fighting? ”

After cutting off the remaining part of Uther's severed arm, Shenqi observed the severed arm while Uther fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by Kessler, who was also injured.

The latter had completely lost his clothes, and in his cloudy body, the spark had been extinguished, but the black embers still swirled in his body.

"Specifically, it was given to the Messiah and him, Lord Shenqi.

It's just for the request of the eldest lady......"

"Little love, request?"

Shenqi turned his head slightly confused, but the cloud of turbid qi lowered his body.

"Yes, it seems that the eldest lady is preparing something."

"Really...... But you didn't tell me...

Probably something that doesn't matter, right? ”

Returning her gaze to the lying person, she just waved it slightly, and Uther's entire arm grew back like a rapid sprout, and Kessler's body instantly returned to its original turbidity, but the wreckage in Shenqi's hand disappeared somewhere.

"You go first, Kessler, I have something to ask Uther."

"Yes."

The wind only gently pushed the door open, and then gently closed it again, and the stone bed lay only the body of a half-sheep, in good health, with no obvious wounds.

After a while, Uther, who was lying on it, woke up, and tried to get out of bed and salute the gods, but found that he could only swing his head.

"Peace of mind, it's just a matter of a while, I just want to know, some details before you met Xiao Ai."

“…… Yes, Lady Shenqi. ”

He felt panic for no reason, because this is the place where life is created and the place where life is dissolved, and if he can't move now, then ......

If... Failure to prove, failure to fulfill obligations...... I'm worthless...

“…… You followed Ai's orders and went to find something, right? ”

"Yes."

Out of nowhere, Shenqi found a wooden chaise longue and lay down on it relaxed, looking at the clear ceiling above as if he was receiving psychotherapy from someone else.

"Those don't matter... I don't care, I know that Xiao Ai is not one of those human beings, she would choose to use power recklessly, so she naturally has her thoughts.

But, Uther, do you know a thing? ”

“…… Could you please point me out..."

He turned his head with difficulty, but Uther only saw Shenqi looking up unconcernedly, as if there was some wonderful world up there.

"Little Love is my daughter, whatever she once was, even if she is only a human now...... But for me, that's enough, understand? ”

“!!”

"I know what you suspect, and I understand the conflict between the Messiah and you.

But you are a being that I have created with my own hands, and you should know better than they do. ”

Ignoring the frightened expression, Shenqi smiled faintly and looked at Uther, who was unable to move.

"I'm in a good mood today, Uther, better than ever.

So that's why I'm willing to say this to you, because you've shown a tendency to be unfaithful. ”

"I ......"

Gently, Shen Qi put one of his fingers on his lips and put on a cute expression, but the voice of the demon on the other side stopped abruptly.

"Be quiet, Uther.

You're lucky, I'm just going to revise your memories because you helped Ai, and that's where she lives.

So, you have to thank her, although after that, you will forget about it. ”

……

……

……

"Hmm...... Where did you read it last time? ”

After announcing her return in full view, Ellie fled to the library, where she felt like she was being put on display in her clothes as if she were being executed in public.

Therefore, in this private library, except for Shenqi and those specific maids, no one will come to this place.

"Page 187, third paragraph, 'Angola Manuel and his enemies'."

"Huh? Do you remember that clearly? ”

Turning the page, she read it a little, and it was indeed the same as what Xiaobai said.

"As I said, I've inherited all your memories, so keep reading.

I'm interested in this paragraph. ”

Bai urged, and Erlie opened the book and continued to read.

It's been a long time since I've read like this, right? In the time of Yamato, there were really few times when I could spare time like this, and the surrounding environment was the same, so it was more comfortable for me to get used to it.

Maybe it's the nature of the demons.,With abundant magical power.,The demon world makes itself very comfortable mentally.,It's easy to settle down.。

In the already peaceful library, there was only the sound of Erli gently turning the pages, and the bookshelves suspended in the air did not emit the slightest sound of wind.

Occasionally, she would stand up, push the stool away slightly, then walk a few steps, take out a book, then flip a few pages at random, walk back again, gently pull back to her chair, and then the monotonous sound of turning pages.

"Thank you, Yumeko-san"

"It's my pleasure, Miss.

In addition, it is Yumeko. ”

He took the lemonade from Yumeko with both hands and took a slight sip. And the head maid naturally retreated, quietly, as when she came, not to disturb the other party's work.

Soon, however, Shenqi was in the library, and although the voice was soft, Erlie heard it, so she looked up.

"Mother?"

"Ah, I've found out."

Whispering, she floated to Ellie's side, then sat down softly, but out of nowhere, she pulled out some rolls of parchment and began to review them.

Strangely, there was no sound, but Erri didn't want to bother Shenqi, just as Shenqi didn't want to disturb herself.

So, the two of them sat in the library.
