Shake the Carrot if You Are Caught by the Devil chapter 36

36 - Children's Book (1)

36 – Children’s Book (1)

It’s not yet dawn.

“… What are you doing?”

Today, for some reason, I woke up early in the morning. She held the doorknob and opened it, fearing that the sound of the door opening might wake her.

But isn’t the demon king squatting in front of my door? Seeing me, she was clearly surprised.

Isn’t it right that I should be more surprised to see a red-eyed demon sitting in front of the door?

“Uh…? What? Why are you already awake…?”

Even at this late hour there was no drowsiness in her voice. She seemed as alive as when she heard it before bed. As if she hadn’t slept at all.

“…I think it was because I went to bed early yesterday. It’s snowing. More than that, you… were you waiting for me?”

“Oh no? I just… Stopped by while passing by. You just came. Just now.”

‘That’s a b*tch.’

If there was one flaw in her transcendent specs, it was that she couldn’t lie. A demon king who averts his eyes and smokes other things. Even without looking, it was obvious that he had been in front of the door for a long time.

‘It was like that when I saw it as a monitoring marble before.’

Even then, I sat in front of the door until I fell asleep. Of course she doesn’t know that I know that…

Anyway, she really is a sleepless woman.

“…Why? What are you going to do?”

“… Over there. That… Do you have any potatoes for me…? 50”

Unlike her, she took a break.

…!

‘…No way! This bastard! My golden hoe I bought the other day!’

The golden hoe is a hoe with almost one-top performance in Little Farm. I barely lived through potato farming and Ryuk nogada. Are you asking me to give you my treasure instead of the royal potato?

‘It’s not even going to happen.’

At that time, I was the Demon King, and I had no friends or anything.

“You know… That…”

“… That?”

“That’s 50 king potatoes. Because I can’t give…”

“…..?”

“Can you read me a children’s book?”

*

A demon king who makes ordinary demands for some reason. There was nothing very difficult.

“Yes.”

“What? Gee, really? Are you reading?”

“Uh.”

“…”

“…”

“Ba, wait in the room! I’ll bring the book right away.”

-Tadat!

After I accepted, I was excited and ran to the end of the dark hallway. If you run like that in the dark dawn on Earth, there will be a dispute because of the noise between floors, but no one except the demon king lives in this huge tower anymore.

– Knocked up.

-Jeobeok, Jeobeok

I closed the door, came in, and sat down on the bed again.

‘Now I’m not surprised to see him like that.’

If you go outside and say that there is an innocent demon king who whines at the top of the tower to read you a fairy tale at dawn, he will probably be chained to the plaza and stoned to death.

– Knock!

After a while. The Demon King roughly opens my door. I’m gasping for breath as if I didn’t rest and ran.

“This, this.”

She held out her five children’s books. Fortunately, it was a language I knew.

“What should I read first?”

Then, the demon king took out a picture book with a blond boy wearing a green suit inside out and holding an axe.

“This! This first! It’s a children’s book called !”

‘It’s plagiarism, no matter who sees it.’

At the bottom of the cover, the author’s name is written. He’s probably the guy from Earth. This plagiarist must have been the one who had troubled me all this time. In the future, if I ever see an asshole named James writing in front of my eyes, I’ll tear them apart.

“Come here.”

Before I knew it, she climbed onto my bed and sat on her bedside, tapping the seat next to her.

“…You want to sit there and read?”

“Yes! Originally, reading books here is the national rule!”

‘National rule…’

I don’t like it when the beautiful language that resembles her beauty is covered with cheap language like national rules. The demon king tends to be like a child who unknowingly picks up candy that has fallen on the street. Should I be more careful in the future?

“Okay. Get out of the way for a bit.”

A place where only the head is laid down during normal sleep. When I sat next to the demon king sitting there, he pulled the blanket over her as if she had waited. Me and her white legs were covered with the blanket.

“…hehehehe.”

She leaned against me laughing broadly. The wind touched my arm with soft, cool forearm flesh.

‘… This is the first time we’re together at this time.’

In the past, ‘f*ck b*tch! Now I can do whatever I want until it’s time to sleep! I should have said, “I’m going to get sick and die!”, But I didn’t feel so bad right now.

‘… Soft.’

From the touch of the arm, the touch of the cheek meat that had been rubbed a few days ago was revived.

“You know.”

“Yes. Why?”

Her neat face is still smiling. It’s about two fists away from my face.

“… Can I pinch your cheeks just once?”

“… Huh?”

Although I was aware that I was talking like an asshole, I strangely couldn’t stand it. It was not an emotion that could be rationally suppressed. How to say Like a crouching furry cat or a hot pack in the middle of winter, the feeling of irresistibly wanting to touch it.

‘What are you doing? Me.’

Like her demon lord, I too ask her for absurd things. How does this help you survive?

“Yes. It doesn’t for a moment.”

As she raised the hand opposite my arm, a magic circle appeared layer by layer under the bed we were on. Sure enough, even when I saw it, there were some kind of apocalyptic defense buffs lined up.

“Now, even if you pull my cheeks, the devil from hell won’t come and eat your arm.”

‘Sell it off! Who wears something like that on their cheeks!’

If I pretended to be crazy and tugged while I was bubbling yesterday, I would have been taken by the devil of hell.

“You can do it now. Hee hee.”

The demon king pushed his face with a smile revealing all his crooked teeth. The wind brought the already close face closer.

“…”

-Sueuk.

-Joo Woo-wook

White cheeks that stretch like glutinous rice cakes.

!!!!!

‘Wow.’

Crazy.

‘Crazy tenderness!’

I will no longer be sick with the third-class people who say that cotton candy, silken tofu, and slime are soft. Right now at this moment. In my mind, the standard for softness has been greatly elevated.

“…Then why are you going there?”

The king of the demon tribe, whose cheeks were being pulled by a mere punching bag porter, asked.

“Oh, no. Thanks for letting me touch you.”

-Sleep

I let go of my fingers holding the ball. That’s enough. After working at the warehouse before, for some reason, my eyes kept going on her cheeks… With this, I’ve reached Buddhahood.

“Read now! Lol.”

Sweet rice cake… No, the demon king tapped the cover of the book with his white hand and polished it.

“Oh, yes.”

With her hand barely freed from her tenderness, she picked up a children’s book.

‘It’s old.’

A very old book. How many times have you seen it? There were tears, crumpled, and burnt hands all over the place. How many times has she read this here?

“…Is this something precious?”

“Yes. Very.”

‘… I’ll have to be careful not to tear it.’

Slowly… I opened it very carefully. Afraid her treasure will be torn apart.

“Open quickly! Anyway, because of Gaia’s protection, it must be burned or torn!”

Yes. That’s like four years. Looking at the origami crane hanging around her neck, all the emotions of dawn were completely dissipated.

*

“”

-Gulp.

She is immersed with her mouth open, even though it is a book she has obviously read countless times. As if there were real Captain Hook and Peter Pan next to me.

“”

“No!!!”

The demon king suddenly rushed out and shouted. I was startled by the ferocious force, as if Truk Makto had jumped out of the elevator that was opening.

“Why, why? What is not?”

“Lee Ik! You just didn’t look like Captain Hook at all! Again!”

!!!

‘What is Captain Hook like? These glutinous rice cakes.’

“…<’Hey Peter Pan. It’s time to go to hell Take it…’>”

“No! This is not it!”

“…<’Hey! Peter Pan! It’s time to go to hell Take it…’>”

“Umm. No. This doesn’t look like a pirate either.”

After that, she continued to feed NGs like a demanding PD at the dubbing site. Unbeknownst to him, the evil gradually rose up. The rage that had been boiling inside seeped into his voice. Eventually.

“f*ck!! <’Hey! Peter Pan! Now it’s time to go off to hell! Take it! Buster A Call!!!!’>”

“Oh! Oh! This is it! This!”

The Demon King claps his seals and is overjoyed. When he shouted so loudly, his eyes lit up with a very satisfied expression.

“Excellent! He was like a pirate captain!”

“Collock… Kuh… Thank you.”

A fussy b*tch. The most annoying part of Captain Hook disappeared only after he was eaten by a clockwork crocodile. Well followed damn criminal bastard.

“It was so much fun…”

After Peter Pan and the Beanstalk ended, small dewdrops formed in the corners of her eyes. And she took out the next book.

*

The next book is Pinocchio and the 40 thieves. The real James I can’t be a copycat. The shamelessness has gone too far.

A story about 40 thieves dumping Pinocchio and Nepetto into the sea after they heard the code for ‘Open Sesame’. They escape from the drum, but are eaten intact by the whale. But here Pinocchio showed his wit. Lying to Nepeto that they were eaten together, he gets injured and stretches his nose, which he then pierces through the belly of the whale and escapes.

‘f*ck… Children in this world grow up watching magic books like this.’

I was grateful for the good and charming heart of the demon king even though I lived to see this. It’s good that he didn’t become a human idiot like the previous party members.

“You know.”

The demon king, who was soaked in books, spoke.

“Huh?”

“You’re not lying to me, are you?”

Suddenly, her nervous gaze turned to the tip of her nose.

“… I won’t.”

I’m not going to… There’s no way this kind of relationship can be maintained without lies.

“…Don’t lie.”

“Yes.”

“You can’t do it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

“Uh.”

“You must keep everything you promised me.”

“… Uh.”

The demon lord who had said that far groaned like a person who was grasping something. You look troubled.

Looks like he’s made up his mind. She closes her eyes tightly.

“…Me.”

“…”

“I lied earlier too. It’s true that I waited in front of your door.”

“…Ah, uh.”

As expected.

“… I told you a lie too. If you lied in the past, tell me now.”

…Will you tell me?

“No.”

“I’m glad… Then you’re here with me all the time, right?”

“… Uh.”

She took out her hand, which she had tucked under her blanket. Then she pinched my nose with her index finger and thumb and pulled it gently. Unlike her usual, she didn’t feel the cold at her fingertips.

“You can’t lie from now on.”

“… I won’t.”

“You don’t like me, do you?”

“Uh.”

“… I’m not lying. Hee hee.”

Relieved, the Demon King let go of my nose. My last answer. One was false, the other was not.
