...... a one-horned demon man, you say?"

　Elysian naturally looked at Mr. Leuke, who had suddenly appeared, with a quizzical look.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After giving us a slight bow, Leuke-san kneeled down in front of Elysian and said, "Nice to meet you, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nice to meet you. My name is Leuke. As you can see, I am a demon, just like you. I have something I really wanted to ask you, so I interrupted you. Therefore, would you mind if I took a moment of your time?

Before you do that, answer my question. Why are your horns missing?　If it is congenital, it is impossible for you to be a demon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am sure it is so. But I am proud of my horn. I am proud of this horn, for it is proof that I have inherited my parents' traits.

"...... what are you saying?"

　But Mr. Leuke smiled softly at Elysian and asked, "What are you talking about?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Do you have any idea who this woman named 'Ronea' is?"

"--?"

　At that moment, Elysian's face hardened in astonishment.

　And then he said, "......Why do you know that name? He glared at Mr. Leuke with a murderous look on his face.

"Because she is my mother," he said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What, ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was stunned by this unexpected fact.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, Leuke, like Tiruna, is "half-human, half-subhuman.

　That's why she's a one-horned woman, and that's why she's so distraught in Elysium.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps she is .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

How is that possible?　Ronea died before giving birth to her child!　That's bullshit!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, this is not bullshit. No, this is not a lie. It is true that my mother was attacked by demons and I was swallowed into their bellies, but she was dying. But even though she was dying, she did everything in her power to save my life until the very last moment of her own life. Therefore, I survived, and after you killed all the demons and humans, her mother, the woman who raised me, found me crying in a pool of blood.

That's ridiculous ......?　Then you are ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I was born between Elysium, the most powerful saint of the demon race, and Lonea, the daughter of a kind-hearted person. I am your daughter who was destined to die, father.

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The eyes of everyone present, including Elysian himself, widened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, she was the daughter of Elysian, who was thought to be dead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But if that was the case, why didn't he tell us when we first met?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, I did not intend to blame them, but if I had been able to tell them that she was alive, I might have been able to end the conflict before it turned into a situation like this.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it seems that Ms. Leuke was thinking the same way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She looked at us and said, "I'm sorry .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

All I had been told was my mother's name and that there had been such a sad incident. I was never told that I was half-Japanese, or that my father's name was my father's, or that my foster mother was my grandmother. But I was aware of things. I had always wondered if it might be possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. And you were convinced by Elysian's reaction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I was. The saints and goddesses are united, and you are even called the "savior", but the demon that you are chasing has become so hostile upon hearing my mother's name. If that is the case, there is no room for doubt, is there?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, that's right. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I nodded quietly, and Ms. Leuque turned to Elysian, who was once again in a state of abandonment, and gently wrapped her weathered right hand in both of hers, "What you did will never be forgiven.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then she smiled softly and said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am so happy that you loved us so much," she said, "and I am sure my mother feels the same way. I am sure my mother feels the same way. So please don't let your hatred hold you back any longer. ......It is enough, Father."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At that moment, Elysian's body suddenly relaxed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "I see,....... Is it enough now,......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes. I am very happy to have met you at last. My mother must have been waiting for you for a long time. Please take your time and enjoy your time together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. ....... I'll take some time off. ...... But I've killed too many ....... Perhaps I'll never get to Ronea. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, I'm fine. I'm sure my mother will come to you to make amends, no matter where your father went. ...... I believe so."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Well,....... That's going to be a pain in the ass,......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elysian's face softened somewhat happily, and Elysian's body collapsed in tatters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The last thing Elysian did was to gently place her hand on Leuke's cheek and gently say, "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry I couldn't protect you, ....... I'm really glad I met you too. ...... Thank you ...... for being alive. ...... Leu, Ke ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

......Yes, Father."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And so Elysian's entire body was reduced to dust and carried away by the wind.
