****(Scene change table attached separately)

There were other reasons why they were able to defeat the Demon King as a party rather than a guild or army, but the main reason was that each individual’s abilities were outstanding.

As befitting the title of a party of warriors, all party members are renowned for their skills.

Let me point out something awkward here: everyone except me was a woman. So, I was quite embarrassed and honestly couldn’t even laugh.

I am the only one-.

Before I got married, I had fantasized about having a harem, but when the time came to take care of my own safety, I quickly abandoned that idea.

A warrior who will save the world, a hero who will defeat the Demon King. Looking back, it all seems like an unfamiliar and childish adjective, and I have a wife who is like a lioness and a child who is like a rabbit that I left behind on Earth.

Even with my colleagues who had been with me up until this point, I drew a line because I was an outsider summoned by contract. Furthermore, as time passed, the attitude of the party members towards me became more and more sticky, and before any unexpected situation could occur, I confessed that I was married.

Princess Miocchi was slightly surprised by this, and the wise Mille said, “It is strange that such a brave man has no wife.” When she heard that he had a child, Saint Kio smiled brightly and said that she would like to see him once.

The shaman’s expressionless face made me think, “Oh, that’s right.”

Even though he revealed that he was married, the party members continued to court him.

Maybe because it’s serious.

To be honest, I don’t mind being wooed by attractive women, but it’s scary to imagine what would happen if a married man with a child didn’t come to his senses from the beginning.

By comparison.

When I went on a business trip to a partner company, the partner company representative tried to seduce me by saying that it was okay even if he was married. If I were single, it would be different, but it’s very awkward to get attached to him when you know you’ll have to say goodbye after work is over.

Apart from that, I had a colleague who approached me gently even though I had built such an iron wall around me.

“… Kio.”

Especially, when I see Kio, who hasn’t met the terms, I get lost in the thought that maybe my daughter will grow up like that someday.

Actually, I had a bit more of a desire to have it grow up like this.

I treated Kio a little better as a preview of the future, but it was more like kindness that I couldn’t help but be careful of since he was not an adult. In a world where bloodshed was a given, the faith and sincerity that the youngest Kio showed despite the attacks of demons and beasts day and night was the best among the believers I’ve ever seen.

Moreover, it was admirable and admirable that she did her job firmly without showing any weakness, but I also felt sorry for her because it was not something that a girl of that age should be able to endure.

Swish

Among the party members who fell for that reason, I took special care of them and protected them.

“After-.”

Aside from dealing with the rascals who had approached the castle earlier, it was fortunate that there was no major danger. I thought about this right before I defeated the Demon King, but if at least one person had woken up, it wouldn’t have been this difficult.

I thought about forcibly waking him up, but since that would be extremely dangerous while he was unconscious from the curse, I decided to just wait quietly.

He remained alert and constant vigilance until the party members regained consciousness.

“Hmm… Sir?”

“Kio.”

Kio opened his eyes at a time that seemed to be a little over two hours later. Even though they were still young, judging by the time Kio woke up, he thought that the party members might have found him.

“You’re up, are you okay? How’s your body? How’s your head? Does it hurt?”

He approached the awakened Kio and carefully placed his back on the ground so that he could sit comfortably.

“Ah, thank you, warrior.”

The way he answered softly with an animal-like expression looked just like he had just woken up from sleep.

It was like that in reality. In fact, all the party members went through even more ordeals, but Kio still treated them like children.

She has a slender body and looks more like a younger sister than a daughter, so she naturally makes you want to protect her, but she is a saint by profession and tries to be dignified and set an example no matter how difficult the task may be.

So even though I try to keep my distance, I get yelled at for favoritism because I openly and indifferently take care of them like a neighborhood uncle.

In reality, since he was the youngest, it was inevitable that I would feel special and proud the more I went to dangerous places with him.

“I’m okay, warrior. Are you okay, warrior? ”

The way she cared for others before herself while being cursed and passed out is truly the epitome of a saint.

“I’m okay. I’m a warrior.”

A question that he asked even though he knew he was immune to abnormal status thanks to the warrior privilege. This kind of attitude of Kio was close to his nature.

It’s a body that doesn’t even show any vitality even when attacked by most people, so it’s natural to be surprised if you stab its skin with a knife.

Kio’s worries will be no different.

“Hehehe, thank goodness… .”

Hot

“… Kio?”

Her face relaxed at the answer that it was okay, but her previous shyness was gone and she leaned against my chest without hesitation and was embarrassed.

“U-Ugh. Please call me Amizel. I’m a warrior.”

Instead of building a wall like other party members, Kio, who was usually shy, suddenly started acting cute when he was pushed hard. He even had a nasal voice.

“Oh, yeah. Amijel… .”

Yeah, it’s a light curse, but a curse is a curse.

I thought maybe I was under an abnormal status, but since I thought the Demon King’s curse had taken effect, it wasn’t that strange.

Since you said you were letting out your desires, it’s not so bad since Kio, who had been suffering inside, is like this. It’s good to hold back, but if you have a wish to do something, you should do it. It’s not good to be too restrained either.

“I’m not good at releasing desires.”

For a moment, a line from a gambling cartoon came to mind.

It is difficult to see her as such an innocent and sincere girl.

“Hehehe-. Yes! Warrior!”

Unlike the other party members, Kio’s expression is truly innocent as he takes advantage of the gap to rub up to his heart’s content.

Still, I think it would be better to ask them to exercise some self-restraint.

It’s embarrassing that a child who is not an adult but is more developed than an adult does this without hesitation.

“… Anyway, I’m glad you look okay.”

It would be meaningless to tell her straight out that she’s whining to me because she’s under a curse.

Recognizing the curse and enduring it was a separate matter.

I’m planning on letting you know when everyone wakes up anyway.

“More than that. I’m sorry for asking you this so soon after you woke up.”

“If it’s a request from the warrior, I’m ready to do anything!”

It was so embarrassing that I was scared to say sorry and he came right up to me and asked me to hurry up and do something.

Look at me intently with your eyes shining brightly, so that my hesitation that I would wake up soon and be tired disappears.

“Uh-, then. Could you wake up the other kids?”

Rather than shaking them awake without a plan, it would be much better to exercise your skills, such as using a healer’s buff.

I’ve already done things that weren’t burdensome before.

Moreover, since Kio was a saint, there was some expectation that she would be able to remove the Demon King’s curse.

“Ah-, that’s… .”

Kio looked around at the fallen party members around him only to see if he understood what I said.

“Can you do it?”

Contrary to expectations that he would act right away, he avoided eye contact and showed a hint of discomfort.

Besides, I wonder if the momentary loss of focus was just my imagination.

Normally, he would have been the first to cling to the party member who had fallen and recited a healing spell, but something was fishy about the current situation.

“I’m sorry, warrior. I think I lack the power to heal others after being defeated by the Demon King.”

At that moment of doubt, he looks embarrassed and apologetic as if it were an illusion.

“Is that so.”

“Yes.”

As soon as you put aside your doubts and accept it, you immediately give a firm yes.

If that’s Kio, then that’s what it must be. But… .

“Then, I know it’ll be hard, but when you recover, can you write about resurrection right away?”

The best option is given late, when you are surprised by the party members’ sudden fainting and cannot figure out which is more important: reviving them or reviving them.

“Yes! I understand, warrior!”

The most amazing thing in this world was the resurrection of the lion.

A miracle that only those chosen by God among the clergy can use.

You have to accept things like lowered abilities, but you can actually revive the dead.

I died and came back to life, so how can that small decrease in ability be a big deal? Of course, I defeated the Demon King without receiving such a miracle.

“May those who sacrificed themselves for us be resurrected! I will pray hard!”

“Okay. It’ll be hard, but I’ll ask you.”

I’m glad I can use resurrection, I feel relieved now.

Even though I usually thought that it would be easier to just do it.

“Hehehehe.”

I stroked Kio’s head, who clasped both hands tightly in front of his large chest as if to pray, and continued to check on the other party members. I was curious why Kio, the weakest of the group, got up first, but I figured it was probably because he was armed with curses and the power of the Holy Spirit.

“Me, warrior?”

“Huh? Why are you like that, Kio?”

At the moment when I was concluding my thoughts, Kio’s gaze and voice calling me were unusual.

“U-…Please call me Amizel.”

Where did her previous shyness go, and where were her restless fingers that clasped their hands together and her thighs and hips that squirmed in embarrassment?

Why is he like this? Is the curse so blatant?

“Oh, right. Amijel.”

Aside from the fact that it came out of nowhere, I was used to always being called Kio, so it felt a little awkward to call him Kio again.

“Do you need anything? Or are you hungry?”

It’s not that I don’t like your unusually proactive attitude, since you wouldn’t have asked me to do it first unless it was urgent.

“No, that’s not it-no. That, ehehe. The warrior’s help is needed… .”

The shy little girl who follows me around like a younger sister blushes and squirms, and for some reason, it feels strange.

It’s not quite a feeling of rejection, but more like an ominous feeling of foreboding.

But Kio, who had been hesitant to even ask for help before… was curious about what could happen when Amijel asked for help.

“Help? How can I help you?”

If it’s nothing special, I’ll listen.

“Your stamina will recover faster if you stay calm. Hehe. So, if the warrior hugs me… affectionately, I think I’ll be able to recover faster… ”

I was wondering what was going on because he was acting so confident but then became shy again like before, and it turned out to be this kind of story.

It’s cute.

“If that’s the case, then what? Just hug me?”

I guess it’ll be okay if you treat him like your own younger sibling. Even though he’s an only child.

“Yes!? Nyehe… LOL-.”

Warak

“What-.”

“Hehehehehe, it’s Yongshani.”

As soon as permission was granted, Amizel came and hugged me, saying, “It’s good.”

*(Table with time changes attached separately)

We took a break for about 20 minutes, tolerating Amijel’s somewhat more relaxed antics. It felt awkward for us to be the only ones doing this after the party members were laid down in a safe place.

In addition, there are a few people who have died. If we find the bodies, it would be a great success, with all the people who participated in the operation to infiltrate the Demon King’s Castle returning safely, so we can’t help but get impatient.

… I got dyed too.

I tried my best not to do that, but now that resurrection was possible, I suddenly felt disgusted at myself for prioritizing my major over my life.

“Please pat me, Yongsanim.”

Phew.

At least, I felt at peace with myself after accepting Kio’s pleas.

“Hmm. Amijel?”

“Yeah-hey!”

“When can I wake up the party members? If it’s difficult, should I just wake them up?”

There is nothing more troublesome than touching someone while they are sleeping under a curse and making the situation worse.

So, for now, all we have to do is wait for Amizel’s power to recover.

But since resurrection was the priority, if that didn’t work out, I had no choice but to forcefully wake up the sleeping party members.

Well, if you do that, Kio will help you with his power.

“That-! Just a little bit more. I think it’ll be okay if you wait… .”

Normally, I would have recovered while meditating calmly, but Amizel made me sit on the table legs and climbed on me like a child. I wondered if I could properly recover my sexual power like this, but I had to believe that he was doing it.

Even though it was a bit subtle to completely trust.

I feel complacent because I think it’s because of the curse cast by the Demon King. To be honest, even if it’s just a curse that causes desires to burst out, it’s clear that our party members will be able to shake it off without me having to do anything.

Because it was one of the weaker curses.

“… Really?”

I wanted to ask exactly how long it would take, but since the curse that caused the desire to burst seemed like a tantrum to Amijel, I decided to accept it knowingly and in the hopes of lessening the burden on Amijel, who had been suffering inside.

“So-. Like this, can you hold me a little more?”

Four-part work, four-part work

He asked me to hug him, but he pressed himself against him. He ignored the distance and sniffed at her, telling her to focus on recovering. The reason she was able to maintain her cleanliness despite going through all that chaos together might have been because Amijel was a saint.

It’s a cleansing magic that Millet can use, but for Amizel, cleansing is almost like a passive ability.

Thinking about it again, I’m telling you that the magic of cleanliness is a total scam.

“The warrior’s embrace… It’s warm and sturdy, I like it.”

Amijel’s cute little head leaned against my chest and tickled my chin as she tilted her head.

“It’s so warm I feel like I’m going to fall asleep… In this situation, this kind of thinking would be very selfish, right?”

At first, he would answer to some extent, but now he talks to himself like a monologue, so much so that it’s a bit difficult to answer.

“We’ve defeated the Demon King, but I know there’s still a lot of work left to do. But now that we’ve destroyed the Demon King, many things will be easier, right?”

Considering Amizel’s age, this kind of tantrum isn’t strange, but since she’s usually shy, it’d be a lie to say she doesn’t feel uncomfortable.

“It would be nice if I could go to the world where the warrior lives together.”

A voice that is dripping with regret. Unlike Amizel, he is active and chatters diligently.

“Warrior. This is just for my recovery, so don’t worry. Do you not like me doing this? ”

It’s a speech and action that makes me feel like he’s belatedly noticing my reaction.

“No.”

It was said to be a curse that causes desire to erupt.

Thinking back to the curse that kept repeating itself in his mind, I realized that even Amizel, who was very strict about self-management, had a desire to do this.

They say that men remain children no matter how old they get, but don’t women want to let go of the pressure?

“Not at all.”

I love it when a kid acts like a kid.

“Hehehe, hug me more!”

“Huh? Really… .”

I just wish they would do something about my tongue-twisting pronunciation.

Is he intentionally trying to babble like a baby? His behavior is so embarrassing that I worry he might be experiencing infantile regression.

Tsdam tsdam

“Hehehehe-.”

It was awkward for a grown woman to hug me and whine like this.

Even if it’s not necessarily Amizel, I’m paying attention to other places.

He was paying attention to the hidden remnants inside the Demon King’s Castle that he had not noticed, as well as the remnants that had already been swept away, as well as the returning Demon King’s army.

Even if you took care of the leftovers outside the castle earlier, there’s no guarantee that more won’t come.

No, I will definitely come.

Before that, you have to wake up the party members and revive the dead ones.

“… Huh, warrior?”

“Millet? Are you awake!?”

The voice of Millet, who had just regained consciousness, calmed down my nerves, which had been on edge while I was alert to my surroundings.

-Extra-

This was the first completed illustration, but I did not properly inform the illustrator of the specifications for the illustration, so it was created well but not used.

I feel it would be a shame to keep it hidden, so I am making it public.
