When Lasse and his friends return home to the village of the demon hunter, a demon called the sister of Lasse and his friends appears in front of them.
"Welcome back Rise and shine, didn't you miss me? Did you want to go home? Did you miss your sister?
The demon woman, called Scylla, entwines her octopus tentacles around Lasse's body and holds him with all her might.
"Hey, sis, we have a visitor. ......
Lasse pointed at Letty, barely moving his free wrist.
"You have a visitor?
Scylla looks in the direction that Lasse pointed, and her gaze turns to Letty.
"Oh, nice to meet you, I'm a former colleague of Lasse's, my name is Letty. ......
Letty tried to cheerfully greet Scylla when he turned around, but his eyes were not very friendly.
A look of murderous intent, to say the least.
If she wasn't modest, she was telling you to die.
Okay.
Letty shuddered at the killing intent, too raw to call it that.
No, she couldn't even shake.
If she moved, she died.
Letty's battle-hardened senses warn her fiercely to never move.
Sister! You're my former colleague, so don't be intimidated!
"......
Scylla, stopped by Lasse, slowly turns around in his direction.
"Hey, no matter how much you want to threaten me, I'm not afraid of threatening you!
But what he saw was not the cold, deadly look in his eyes, but the sweet, loose look he had given me earlier.
This is Letty, a colleague of mine from my military days, and now she helps me with a lot of things when I get into trouble at work.
Oh, my God. Miss Letty? My brother has always been a big help to me.
A smiling greeting. A graceful movement.
But it's only the voice.
Only the voice is that of a beautiful woman.
Only the gesture of a perfect lady.
But once again, Letty has the eyes of a hunter at the sight of a vermin.
(You're going to be killed. ......)
If you say something stupid, they'll kill you; if you show your back to escape, they'll kill you.
Whatever you do, they'll kill you.
I'm completely f*cked.
Letty's mind went blank from Scylla's killing intent.
Having experienced actual combat, Letty sensed Scylla's murderous intent.
That's why you can't threaten me! You're going to hate me, or you're going to hate me!
Obviously, Lasse, judging her sister to be threatening Letty, issues a final recommendation against her, the "big sister hate".
It's a good thing, or perhaps it's a good thing that Scylla smiled at Lise.
...... sister, I think you and Letty can become very good friends!
Then he walked over to Letty, pulled her into a hug and squared her shoulders.
"I know you feel the same way, Letty.
Cheerfully Scylla asks.
"......, haha.
To Scylla's question, Letty gives an immediate reply.
It's not because of her friendly demeanor.
It's because one of Scylla's eight toes is stuck diagonally behind Letty's flank, in the blind spot from Lasse.
Somehow the legs were hard, even though they were soft. Letty can't help but imagine her torso being pierced by the octopus' legs, creating a huge hole.
I wish I could go to .......
Of course I'm aware of the situation. But I came to the conclusion that it's not a good idea to scold her for it, so I accept the sham reconciliation, Lasse.
"Sorry Letty, my sister's a bit overprotective.
For now, though, Lasse apologizes, relieved that Letty's safety is secured.
......, we're family. It's normal to be a little bit worried about them, right?
But Letty's eyes are clearly not normal at all! And shouting.
But I dare you to ignore it.
Pointing it out here will only get you in trouble.
That's right, sister, I was so worried about the bad people who attacked the village for Lasse that I was so worried.
(Absolutely this person must have killed the attacker.)
Letty is convinced that she is the one who instinctively fought off the attackers to the village.
Well, I'll have to ask the elders for more information about that.
Let's just get this thing done and go home. If we don't, it's going to get worse and worse.
The
"Oh Lise! Nice to see you back! How's life in the city? Are you doing well?
Lasse was greeted by a large man with pure white hair as long as the mane of a lion's mane, who came to the mansion deep in the village.
It's good to see you, elder.
Lasse bows to an old man, whom he calls an elder.
Then Lamia bows and Letty bows as well.
"Hmm? You have an unfamiliar girl. Is that her? You mean your this? The daughter-in-law?
And so on," the elder holds up his little finger with a grin.
Hey, hey, hey, my wife...
Letty blushes and gets upset when she says it too straightforwardly.
"Oh my God!
Scylla steps forward from behind Lasse and holds the elder's head in his hands.
A treat! No, no, no!
Mischiri, Mischiri, the head of the elder makes a sound.
"Hey, isn't that right, Letty?
Hahahahaha!
Letty..." she struggles to pick up the words that are suddenly thrown at her.
Guys, enough with the jokes. But before that, would you mind telling me what you wanted to see me about?
Letty looks at Lasse in amazement as she sees Scylla, who is clearly going to kill the elder, and the elder, who is about to turn white in agony.
"Oh, oh, ...... that's right.
Feeling better about being side-swiped by Lasse, Scylla removes his hands from the elder's head.
Rubbing both sides of his head, the elder began to explain why he had called Lasse back.
"Well, our village was attacked a while ago.
"I read that in the letter,
Scylla was leading the charge, and he would rather not let the villains who came after you live, as he would have killed them all.
(still)
Letty nodded inwardly that her instincts were right after all.
I thought I'd get the details from the perpetrators, but I couldn't find anyone who could have a decent conversation, so I thought I'd ask you directly.
"That's why you called me.
Lasse lets out a sigh that he's been called out for something stupid.
"Hey, Lasse, I was worried about you so I sent you a letter. You can't talk to me like that!
Yes, you would think so!
When Letty got angry at Lasse's curt attitude, Lamia hugged her and agreed with her.
"She has always been cold to my affection.
"Huh? Ah, yes, yes.
Letty was instantly taken from behind and shivered for a moment, but she regained her composure and expressed her agreement with Scylla.
You will be able to get a better idea of what you are looking for.
That said, it's not unusual for people to come after people in your village.
Really? And when Letty looked at Lamia, Lamia nodded silently.
"Well, that's it. I just needed a reason to bring Lasse back.
Without asking who wanted to hear the elder's words, Letty understood who it was.
I was so worried about you!
"Okay, okay. We have a dragon at home, so don't worry about it.
I'm still worried about you!
Scylla expresses her affection with all her might by hugging Lasse with her arms and legs.
"You're hurting me, sister.
Well, that's what I'm talking about, and I'd appreciate it if you could tell me the details: ......
The elder asks for an explanation from Lasse, trying to undo the conversation that was nearly derailed.
"I don't know who the culprit is, either. It's either people who have a grudge against me because of my demonic connections or people who don't like the fact that I'm in a good business.
It doesn't matter," Lasse replied, as he was hugged by Scylla.
It's a good thing that we don't know who did it. The attacker is no longer in a state of mind to answer the questions.
"What the hell did I do? ......
But Lasse didn't want to ask for details.
I'm done with my business, so we'll be going home.
With that, Lasse tried to get up, but was unable to do so because of the overwhelming power of Scylla's hold on him.
Sis, let go.
"Yee-hah!
Scylla rubs his cheek against Lasse, purring like a child.
"He's got work to do. We've got some demons we left back in town.
"I'm back and you're heartless!
Scylla is not going to talk Lasse even with leverage and clings to Lasse.
...... sister.
Lasse's voice sinks coldly.
Seeing this, Lamia suddenly begins to panic.
"What is it, Lamia?
"No, I mean, as it is, ......
Lamia is too frazzled to get to the point.
(Will they have a sibling rivalry? (I mean, if that happens, can Rise win?)
Letty worries that a flesh-and-blood human, not so good at fighting, will not be able to defeat Scylla.
However, a voice assuaged Letty's concern.
We've come to your village. Stay here for one night.
It was the words of an elder.
"But I have a job to do. ......
When Lise heard that, she too can't seem to discard it with the words of an elder, and her words are muddled.
Good. Everyone in the village wants to hear your story. Nothing you have to do to get back to work right now, right?
That's right: ......
(The elder is good)
Lamia inwardly admires the elder's words.
(If you hear that Lasse-sama is so busy that he has to rush back, shouldn't he come back to the village? You wanted to prepare Lasse for the possibility that she might say something favorable to Scylla, which would be very embarrassing for her. (Lasse-sama would want to minimize the possibility of being called back by Scylla.
"Soooooooo! Elders sometimes say nice things!
Isn't that awful?
The elder looks hurt, but Scylla doesn't know.
So, if your work is going well, you can stay at least one night!
"...... haha
Having been told that by the elder and Scylla, Lasse let out a sigh and looked at Letty.
I'm sorry, but that's why I'm going to spend the night in the village.
"Oh, well, if that's the case, I guess we'll just have to do it: ......?
Letty agreed with Lasse's words, but she stiffened at the sight of Scylla staring at her with a straight face right beside her.
Those eyes, why are you being asked for Lasse's permission? It was obvious that the question was being asked.
"Oh, oh, ......
(Oops, I should have just asked them to leave first for a reason.
Letty smiles a twitching smile, and Lamia taps her shoulder.
"Good luck getting through it.
Letty's shoulders slumped in the face of this unsolicited comfort.
That night, the boy and the girl would spend the most thrilling night of their lives.
