Chapter 16: 16

“Gresis, for the sake of friendship, I will have you marry the princess of Seiran.”

The King’s, my father’s, orders must be obeyed absolutely unless there is a very good reason or an alternative.

“Understood.”
Having said that, my heart is not convinced.

The neighboring kingdom of Seiran is a country ruled by humans.
When it comes to appearance, except for the animal ears and tail, it is almost the same as human beings, but for people of the human race regardless of age or gender, there was a strong sense of discrimination as barbarians just from saying the word beastman, and the unreasonable words and actions were too much.

Marry such a person. To be told so is nothing but torture.
And I’m also not good with women.
Women approach because of the title of prince.
I don’t want to be involved in the succession to the throne. When I say as much, women suddenly lose interest.
A woman joined the royal knights to help the king and my brother, and as soon as she became the unit commander, she approached as if snuggling up to me.

People around me told me to get married, so I reluctantly got engaged to a woman from a marquis family who was recommended to me, but in the end, she was unfaithful and wasteful with money.

In the Tenar Kingdom, cheating is considered a crime, so it was fortunate that I was able to easily break the engagement.

“Captain Gresis, I am sorry for your loss.”
“Marriage with a human is the end, isn’t it?”
I was pitied by my subordinates.

It’s not a thing to say to someone whose marriage has been decided, but it’s true, so there’s nothing to say back. I banged my tail and scared my subordinates.

“I am honored to meet you. I am Lilith, the princess of the Seiran Kingdom.”

I heard that she was 18 years old, with pink hair and eyes, cherry lips and cheeks, but perhaps because she was short, or because of her smile, I felt the innocence of a young girl.

Beastmen are sensitive to other people’s emotions. Humans often feel negative emotions, but I couldn’t feel them.

However, the true nature may come out in the future.
I won’t harass her or do anything childish, but I decided to keep my distance.

After the wedding ceremony, Lilith moved from the guest room to a room that was connected to my bedroom by a single door.
It would be troublesome for her to have unnecessary expectations, so I visited Lilith’s room the night we got married.

“I don’t intend to love a human, but I guarantee your life, so you should spend your time as you like.”
I clearly convey my intention not to get involved.

“Is that so? Well then, I’ll take your word for it and spend my time as I please.”
I was greeted with an unexpected smile.

“Yes, then.”
Feeling uncomfortable, I quickly return to my room.
“Good night.”

When I was about to close the door, I heard a refreshing voice behind me. However, I didn’t have time to turn around and reply.
I was confused by the type of person I had never met before.

“So, how was your first night?”
Agar, a classmate from the military academy and an assistant unit commander, asks out of curiosity.

“Don’t ask when you already know.”
There can’t be anything. If it’s a beastman, anyone can predict it.

“It seems to be humiliating for a human woman not to be touched on the first night.”
“It didn’t feel that way at all.”

“Then she probably simply dislikes beastmen. After all, the other party is a human.”
“Maybe so.”

I suddenly remembered what happened last night.
Lilith was covered with a blanket, but there was no cloth around her neck and shoulders.

Would you wear something like that if you didn’t like it? I’m the one who refused, but what am I remembering. . .?
Let’s work.

Come to think of it, I heard there was an epidemic going on. If you look closely, there are some people resting, so let’s be careful.
Just when I was thinking that, it’s a pity that I was already infected.

I was still good when I arrived at the mansion, but my body was heavy, it became difficult to breathe, and I couldn’t move.
In the end, I couldn’t keep my human form and became a beast, and I ended up experiencing an unprecedented suffering.

“It’s alright, it’s alright.”
I had a dream that a gentle voice was stroking my body.
Hearing that voice healed me, and being stroked was comfortable, and I wanted it to be like that all the time.

Every time I was stroked, the heaviness of my body softened, and I felt that my breathing became easier.
What is this dream. . .

In the morning, when I opened my eyes, Lilith’s hand was attached to my body, and she was sleeping peacefully beside me.
Surprised, when I was about to say, ‘what the heck is going on?’, the butler Dolph spoke to me in a low voice.

“Your Highness, please be quiet. Until recently, Princess Lilith has been taking care of Your Highness, whose life was in danger. I’m sure she was tired and fell asleep. Please let her rest a little more.”

Why Lilith? That question and, until just now, all night long? Surprised by that, I looked at Lilith and Dolph alternately.

“Most of the chamberlains in the mansion were infected with an infectious disease and turned into beasts, and humans are not infected. Her Highness Princess Lilith took the initiative in taking care of everyone. We hate humans. However, I think that Her Highness Princess Lilith is different from other humans.”

It must have been a big deal for Dolph, who has been serving the royal family even before my father became the king, to admit it.
I see Lilith’s hand on my back.

Was that not a dream, but Lilith’s hand?
To think that there are humans who can fall asleep next to those who have turned into beasts, Lilith might certainly be different from other humans.

I stare at her sleeping face.
Well, it might look cute.

After a while, Lilith’s eyes opened. When I thought that, she looked surprised and she got off the bed in a hurry.
Are you still afraid?

“How are you feeling?”
Unexpectedly worried.
It became easier. When I said that, she looked relieved.

After that, due to Dolph’s unwillingness, I ended up being helped by Lilith with meals.
I don’t like it, let’s say no.

“There’s no need to act like a chamberlain.”
“You said I could do as I please.”

I never thought that the words I said on the first night would be brought up now.
Regret overwhelms me.

“Ah.”
When Lilith said that, she brought a spoon of porridge to my mouth with a big smile.

Maybe she doesn’t have any sense of shame, or maybe she misunderstands that I’m a pet or something.

Even so, I can’t do anything because I can’t use my hands because of beastification.
I’m hungry, so I eat reluctantly.

“Cute.”
Was it a pet certified person?
For the time being, I told her to eat her own food as well.

“I’m fine because it’s fun.”
Fun, what are you looking forward to?

Ah, she’s preparing to feed me again. . . she’s looking at me with a big smile on her face.
I had no choice, so I gave up and finished the meal.

I felt better and I tried to leave this place. It is immediately knocked down.

I didn’t know that a human would appear who would try to push down me, a fierce man who is far stronger than a human as the commander of the royal knights’ monster subjugation unit.
What’s more, it’s the weakest-looking woman who falls into the small category even among humans.

Lilith just surprised me. But she was even more surprised.

She helped me recover with Healer, but if I moved, I would return to normal, so I have to rest until I regain my strength. That’s what I was told.

When I asked about Healer, she clearly tried to deceive me.

“Beastmen can see through lies.”
When I said that, she took it upon herself to speak.

The power that heals those who she touches, which is a top secret in Lilith’s homeland, that’s what Healer seems to be.
It’s hard to believe, but I don’t think she’s lying.

In fact, my body has become more comfortable, so apart from my strength, I have no choice but to thank Lilith, who saved my life, for being human.

I decided to rest for the time being so as not to worry about it.
I do not refuse food assistance and accept it.

Surprisingly, it’s getting more and more comfortable to be told “ahhh” every time.
When she smiles at me, it makes me happy.
I want to watch it all the time.

After the meal, she went to do other errands, so I started to feel a little lonely.
I got curious and asked her what she was doing today at dinner.

Day by day, I felt like I wanted to feel closer to Lilith.
She didn’t mind if I entwined my tail with her, but rather she happily stroked it.

Even though Lilith is a princess, she works like a maid. She looks like she’s having fun.
Even if she doesn’t get the contagious disease, isn’t she overworked?

I thought I’d let her rest for a while, so I pulled down Lilith who was sitting on the bed.
It was easier than I thought.

She tried to escape, so I lightly put my hand on her stomach. With just that, Lilith couldn’t move.
He seems to have regained a lot of strength.

“I’ll fall asleep when it’s so comfortable.”
Looking at her with a troubled face made me want to annoy her even more.

“If you don’t like it, you won’t sleep.”
I thought it was quiet for a while, but I guess she was tired after all.
She fell asleep immediately. She looks comfortable. . .

What is it like to sleep so defenselessly in a man’s bed?
While I was happy to know the comfort of being accepted, I was dissatisfied with being treated as a pet.

However, the dissatisfaction was soon resolved.

It was good that when I woke up in the morning, I had returned to human form.
I noticed, however, that I was holding Lilith naked, as I was wearing nothing.

Moreover, Lilith seemed to have already woken up, and her face was blushing and frozen.
Oh my God!!

I pretended to still be asleep and slowly loosened my hand, Lilith quickly got off the bed and went back to her room as is she had been waiting.

After confirming the sound of the door closing, I quickly put on the clothes in the closet.
Dolph brought the food, so I had him prepare it as usual and went to call Lilith.

Unfortunately, I no longer need help.
We faced each other and ate together, but Lilith looked restless.
I have an idea as to why. But I still dare to ask.

“I’m just unfamiliar with it.”
She averted her gaze, her cheeks were dyed red and she was clearly shy.
It was such a cute reaction.

This is considered a man, not a pet.
I was convinced of that and rejoiced in my heart.

It’s unbelievable to have such feelings for a human woman. However, I clearly realized it.

Ah, I love Lilith.
