Epilogue. Odelia (2) (Illustration)
Historically, there has never been a case in which all four iron gates leading to the royal castle were opened.
At least two doors were closed during the coronation of a new king or during a festival honoring a great hero. Because you don’t know when and where the enemy will invade, you continue to keep the minimum defense.
But today is a day that can’t be found even if you look through history.
Because it was the coronation ceremony of the king, two doors were opened to accommodate the people, and all the other doors were opened because it was a day of harmony between humans and demons.
Opening all the gates of the capital meant that Aeonia’s enemies no longer existed in this world.
Babam–!
The sound of the trumpet sounded from the walls of the city. Firecrackers made with magic bloomed in the sky, and pollen scattered brightly. The sun was also warm and it was a perfect day.
“The weather is good. Her Highness the Princess. no… … . Do I have to call you His Royal Highness now?”
“Then, we are His Highness’s handmaidens!?”
“I can just imagine… … !”
The ladies-in-waiting, who had been adorning Odelia, laughed at the pleasant imagination.
“Stop joking. I haven’t received the crown yet, so I’ll tremble later.”
Odelia forced the corners of her mouth down and pretended to be strict. Although the person who said the words had the most happy expression, the ladies-in-waiting only exchanged glances at each other, saying that even Odelia’s appearance was cute.
“By the way, what would it look like? Her Highness’s prince~”
When the younger maid got off her luck, the other two maids opened their mouths as if they had been waiting.
“Because he is the Demon King, his horns… … It must have run, right?”
“It will be scary.”
In fact, the ladies-in-waiting also chatted all night about Odelia’s coronation and wedding.
What about the face of the demon king, what about his personality, if he did something wrong to Her Highness, he would not stand still.
Anyone who saw it would have thought that the youngest brother was getting married. Actually, the way the ladies-in-waiting looked at Odelia was not very different from that.
“Well, it’s not that harsh… … .”
Odelia closed her eyes as if she was slightly embarrassed. Originally, I wasn’t nervous, but when it was time to face it, my heart started beating without my knowledge.
“Oh my, oh my.”
“Your Highness the Princess. Your face is red!”
“Even if you fell, you fell firmly. It’s a big deal.”
“Kuh, what’s the big deal! Stop teasing me!”
As Odelia felt embarrassed, the ladies-in-waiting intensified. Even after all this, since Odelia always laughed lightly at the ladies-in-waiting’s jokes, such a cute reaction broke the hearts of the ladies-in-waiting.
smart-
The maids, who had been shrieking at the sudden knocking sound, shut their mouths at the same time. Because there was only one person in Odelia’s room at this time.
Wow!
The ladies-in-waiting immediately activated the crisis detection sensor, exchanged glances, quickly tidied up the surroundings, and stood in their respective positions.
The mischievous appearances disappeared, and they were elegant ladies-in-waiting who served the princess.
“Hmmmm, come in.”
Odelia was also slightly nervous, clearing her throat a few times before calling for a guest. The door opened slowly.
A fragrant scent slipped through the door and tickled the nose of Odelia’s future husband. I soon realized that I was getting married.
“Oh.”
“… … !?”
“What, what?”
The eyes of the ladies-in-waiting were lost and wandered as they checked the face of the man who opened the door and entered. It was difficult to grasp the situation.
He didn’t have the horns that a demon king would have, and he didn’t have dark red skin. It didn’t even turn out badly. Rather, a man with a familiar face entered.
‘That person must be from the Blackfire family… … .’
‘Didn’t I come to the wrong place?’
‘No way. Where is this place?’
The ladies-in-waiting, who read each other’s thoughts even with their eyes, quickly came to a conclusion.
“Kheuk! Ah, is Duke Aren the marriage partner of Her Highness!?”
Since she had already seen it a few times, the oldest lady-in-waiting broke the awkward atmosphere and asked a question.
“That’s right.”
Aren, who wore his hair neatly combed, answered without hesitation. The shadows under her eyes looked particularly dark. It was a tired look, but it rather showed off Aren’s decadent beauty.
Even the ladies-in-waiting blushed, but soon came to a fact that brought them to their senses. Goosebumps ran down his spine.
“So, so, so.”
“Ah, the true identity of the duke is… … !?”
“It’s the Demon King.”
Odelia rose from her chair and took the place of Aren’s mouth. Then he walked briskly and lightly placed his hand on Aren’s arm. It was a fairly natural skinship like a married couple.
“And the man who will be my husband. haha! How is it, everyone is surprised!”
bomb!
An unimaginable identity!
The surprise that Odelia has been waiting for!
The second lady-in-waiting swallowed foam and collapsed.
* * *
eyes are not good
Murder and hostility spilled out among the public touches the skin. The delegation from the Demon Realm walked nervously.
I was preparing my mind because I heard it well, but it is not easy to act casually in front of the demons who killed my family and trampled on the ground.
Aren gave courage to Krakchar and the demon delegation.
“Straighten your shoulders. Don’t be intimidated, get over their stares.”
This is the first step towards clearing your karma.
The new demon king’s line was somewhat difficult to understand, and it was cruel from the point of view of the demons and demons, but there was no consultation.
The Demon King has declared an end to the war and dreams of reconciliation with humans. If the devil is black, he is black. Even if it is difficult and difficult, you have to go on that thorny path. Only then can it change.
The demon world was passing through a tough tunnel.
Through their efforts, humans will gradually change. It will take a long time, but what exists at the end of the long tunnel is love and hope.
In joy, Odelia inherited the crown. Previously, it was a temporary job because he was the only member of the royal family, but now he has officially inherited the throne.
All of the original heirs to the throne resigned after a political battle with Odelia.
It was a trivial fight that she could not compete with as long as she had achievements and brains. It was an overwhelming victory with no bloodshed.
Odelia lowered her head and smiled. He never thought he would ascend the throne, but his dream came true.
After all, it was all thanks to Aren. A man approached one day. This is where all these feats began.
‘I’ll have to make her look pretty today.’
Odelia had no choice but to die because Aren was pretty. Because of that, he took the throne and even made her husband.
After the coronation ceremony, there was Odelia’s speech.
Odelia’s speech was powerful, well-delivered, and had an appeal that touched people’s hearts. Unknowingly, even in the hearts of the demons, something warmed up.

Krakchar trembled at every word Odelia said. Thinking of his dead comrades and the innocent people he had killed, he was seized with a complicated state of mind.
Aren put his hand on Krakchar’s trembling shoulder. Although he did not say anything, the warm comfort of the new demon king is conveyed.

Kraktsar swallowed the tears inwardly. It’s a fresh start.
The monumental speech is over.
As soon as Odelia ascended the throne, she accomplished the greatest achievement in Aeonian history. The Pandemonium War ended, and the forum for dialogue was opened. It is an unprecedented feat in history.
A grand festival took place.
However, cold water soon poured.
“I will announce the marriage here.”
Odelia made a shocking announcement while wearing a crown. A marriage announcement made at the same time as the coronation. And that opponent was none other than the Demon King.
Odelia pointed out someone as the royal family’s sword, Gaitarner.
“my husband! Come up!”
It was a comment that could have caused a bit of laughter, but everyone agreed because it was Odelia with an erratic temperament. However, the man standing next to him was difficult to accept.
Aren stood by Odelia.
The fact that a young king gets married on the day of his coronation is also shocking, but it is difficult to accept that the other person is a demon king. A lot of people frowned at this alone.
But add to that.
“That person… … Isn’t it Blackfire?”
“I think it’s Duke Aren!?”
“What are you saying, the Demon King? why… … . uh, could it be?”
The fact that the demon lord was in fact Aren Blackfire was like dropping a nuclear bomb on this wide plaza.
“Starting today, I, Odelia Braveheart, the duke of the Dark Realm Blackfire Principality, the great leader of all monsters and demons, and now my husband—Aren Blackfire, I declare my marriage!”
――――!!!
There is peace and harmony.
There were also blessings.
However, it was a marriage that was too ahead of its time to accept everything.
It seemed to take some time, but somehow the conversation was happening.
* * *
Birds sing peacefully.
Aren and Odelia’s honeymoon destination was the lakeside in the middle of the southern elven forest. There was a small island in the middle of the lake, and the elves built a beautiful villa there and were conducting tourism.
After Thanatos died, the elves returned to the world and started their activities.
It was ironic that the first departure was to arrange a honeymoon destination for the King of Aeonia.
“I really like it. I feel peace in my heart Elves have been monopolizing places like this. It would be perfect for the tourism business.”
Still, it is an elven forest, and a villa built by elves. Not to mention the mystery and ethereal energy, and the aesthetic sense of the elves was the best on the continent.
It was such a beautiful lakeside, worthy of being a honeymoon destination for the beautiful Odelia.
There are only two here. Even the knights escorting them were only on duty outside the elven forest, but no one set foot on the island in the lake.
It was ridiculous to announce peace and put up guards, so it was Odelia who killed all the royal knights.
In fact, there is no need to spend money. The war is over in the first place, and the demon king is her husband, who will threaten her?
Even this is the forest of the elves. Seeing blood in the elven forest would require quite a bit of determination.
“Why are you not talking?”
Odelia, who was looking at the calm lake, turned and looked at Aren. Aren was also staring at the shore of the lake with his hands in his pockets.
“just… … . I want to be able to be this peaceful.”
It’s partly because it’s an elven forest, but it’s a peaceful and quiet place that gives goosebumps. When I think of the past days when I ran out of breath, it was an absurd extravagance.
Aren found it so awkward. It didn’t even feel like being here, married to Odelia.
Odelia, quick-witted, noticed Aren’s concerns right away. Even when Odelia was ignorant in the castle, Aren risked her life to fight to save the world.
Even if you have been resting for a year, your body and mind may not have been completely healed yet.
A strange uneasiness settled in his eyes that seemed to haunt him. The word ‘rest’ still seemed awkward to him.
Anyway, now he is my husband.
Although it was an arranged marriage, it was not without heart. I was thinking of doing my duty as a wife. If the husband is in trouble, the wife should comfort him.
Odelia got up from her seat and approached him. The fluttering silk clothes were like calm waves on the shore of a lake. It was a dress that suited her very well.
“Ugh. Aren. no… … What should I call it now?”
“Please feel free to call me.”
Aren responded with a smile to Odelia, who slipped her arms around her.
“Joe, that’s good. It’s just inconvenient to call them, so let’s call them by their first names. Oh, Aren… … ?”
“Yes.”
“Ugh! Shouldn’t you do the same! My, I am your wife! Don’t embarrass me!”
Odelia crossed her arms and got angry cutely. She wanted to create a newlywed atmosphere in her own way, but she resented Aren for ruining it from the beginning.
Odelia glared at him with a sigh. Still waiting for an answer. Aren understood her heart and struggled to open his mouth.
“… … Oh, Odelia.”
Aren also awkwardly scratched his cheek in the rapidly awkward atmosphere. The beauty of the new bride, Odelia, was enough to make even foolish worries run away.
It was awkward, but it seemed to have an effect. Odelia expressed satisfaction.
“Huh, hehe.”
“?”
“Ummm, Joe, would you like to lie down?”
Odelia lay down on the wide bed prepared in the villa. And I was amazed at its ridiculous softness.
“Oh oh. The elf’s technology is… … . I really like this.”
Aren burst out laughing as he watched all the circuits run toward business, politics, and economics.
“Why are you laughing?”
Odelia asked with a really curious face. Aren shook his head, saying it was nothing. Then, quite naturally, he climbed onto the bed on which she lay.
Somehow, Odelia was lying down and Aren was in a position to appreciate Odelia’s beautiful figure on top of it.
There was an awkward silence as her odd eye met Aren’s. Her golden hair, spread in a coveted manner, was very enchanting.
“… … .”
“… … .”
It is an arranged marriage. It had a clear purpose. Still, still, as long as you’ve made a couple’s kite, you have to do your duty. It was something that had already been agreed upon in advance.
A lewd demon whispered in Odelia’s head. Odelia suddenly closed her eyes and said.
“that… … . I’ll have to travel around the kingdom for a few years, and I’ll have to look at the reigns, so I won’t make a child. Mmm.”
Aren didn’t mean to do that, but Odelia started talking nonsense. Even Aren blushed in embarrassment at the sudden remark.
“No, Odelia? I am not like that.”
“Ha, but!”
Odelia turned her head shyly and said.
“Ah, hugging is allowed.”
Odelia spread her arms wide, still averting her gaze.
“Because we are a couple… … yo. this.”
