I Was Reincarnated Chapter 42

Sei side

It's my first time having a meal with the demon G.o.d

However the demon G.o.d didn't open his mouth at all

Up to now I haven't seen him open his mouth at all, even for a drink

Could it be he doesn't have an appet.i.te?

Will he be fine even if he doesn't eat?

However I don't want to be teleported like Doyle-sama for saying too much

While silently having the meal I watch the demon G.o.d ( + beastman ) sitting in front of me

He sat the beastman down on top of his lap and is feeding him like a child

Today he hasn't taken off his veil

Although he's a s.e.x slave, he's [quite] pampered

There's probably no other master who does such things

The demon G.o.d feeds him without paying any mind to my presence for a while

I notice that his movements seemed to suddenly stop and he stands up and seats the beastman in the chair

"Rune, wait here"

"Eh-!?"

At his sudden actions, the beastman lets out a surprised voice

"You, if anything happens to Rune, I will erase humanity"

This is a threat

However for a guy who has the demon G.o.d's divine protection, in what way can he be attacked?

Even just doing it [attacking] is futile

"What's wro―"

"Shin-sama!? Me too―"

My voice overlaps with the beastman's

I tried to ask what happened, but the beastman spoke like he wanted to come with him

"It seems something happened over at the castle, if you're worried wrap yourself in this"

Only answering towards the beastman, he covered him with a considerably fine cloak

"If a guy aside from me touches you, their arm will be blown off so rest easy, okay"

(What, that BS power)

Does this cloak have divine protection on it as well?

The beastman nodded with an uneasy expression

He was tightly gripping the cloak

"I return soon so wait for me"

The demon G.o.d disappeared

As soon as that happened the Beastman seemed to feel afraid and despite being in the middle of eating he did not move

(Isn't this, a chance?)

The demon G.o.d completely never talks about himself

That demon G.o.d's slave, is alone in front of me, a tailor-made chance [perfect opportunity made for me]

I will gather information about the demon G.o.d from him

Information about that demon G.o.d

(However, he seems to be extremely vigilant)

He completely won't look this way

For beastmen to fear humans can't be helped

Moreover, if it's a knight, there's nearly no chance of winning for a beastman

Knights, like beastmen, excel in swordsmanship, while also being able to use magic

Beastmen are absurdly weak in magic

For that reason, there are many that could be captured as slaves

"…….Where did you get that sword?"

As expected this should be a safe topic to start from

"…..Shin-sama gave it to me"

He nervously replied

Is his fear not fading?

However, when he was on top of the demon G.o.d's lap, he wasn't in such a state of fear

As I thought, I understood that no one could match the demon G.o.d [in his eyes]

He seems to hold admiration for that demon G.o.d

"Are there any other weapons?"

"Eh…..don't know"

Saying it like that, should I not ask?

"Why, are you together with the demon G.o.d? Did he buy you as a slave?"

Is that why he pampers you so much

Not seeing him buy a large quant.i.ty of slaves before [that time in town], as expected just this beastman and the others are special

"My village was attacked by demons, and only me and Rau are left. Everyone else in the village was eaten by the demon king……"

The beastman's expression twisted in bitterness

(Their village was attacked, huh)

Such things like that aren't rare

There being survivors is more unusual

"How did you survive?"

There's little chance of a beastman beating a demon

Moreover, if a demon king comes out there's no chance

"Uh,m……..since I had Shin-sama's divine protection, even though I fell down a cliff I didn't die. Rau was hidden inside a wall and they didn't find her"

"Divine protection? When did you meet the demon G.o.d?"

Only this beastman, fit his taste?

"The first time I met Shin-sama, more than half a year ago……. The day after Shin-sama was born"

(Hah?)

Even from such an early time, you received his divine protection?

"You became his slave after that time?"

The beastman shook his head at my words, there's too much I don't understand

"Shin-sama…..probably because of his power when he asked my name it came out, but he didn't do anything with it. Even after I was subordinated, I kept living in the village"

That's surprising

Was he not interested in him?

Then for what purpose did he subordinate him?

"Why did the demon G.o.d subordinate you?"

"……..no idea"

He's still covered, but he takes and eats some food

Did it become clear that I wouldn't do anything and so he lowered his vigilance?

That'll make it more convenient

The talk will be easier

However I was stuck on one thing

"You said the demons took you and you fell from a cliff, right? So how did you come to live together with the demon G.o.d?"

If he lived in the village even after he was subordinated, how did they come to live together?

Did he [Shin] know that the village was attacked?

"I sought his help……in the end, I wasn't in time and got there after everyone was eaten, but Shin-sama defeated the demon king for me. Because of that, I was going to go to another beastman village together with Rau, but since it was dangerous he told us we should come to the castle……"

"The demon G.o.d said that!?"

The beastman nodded

This is not something to be just surprised about

He was gentle to this beastman from the start?

The demon G.o.d showed compa.s.sion and helped him?

For this beastman, the demon G.o.d killed?

This information [he's told me] is beyond my expectations and I'm terribly confused

That demon G.o.d, was actually gentle?

"He told me and Rau that we weren't slaves. This, is something we're wearing just as a preventative measure"

The beastman said while touching the slave collar

The image I had of the demon G.o.d up to now crumbled to pieces

(……Nn? Wait)

The two beastmen I understand

But in that case, what about that elf and spirit?

"Did the demon G.o.d save the other slaves too?"

I already know about the group that he bought, but how did those two become the demon G.o.d's slaves?

"Uhm,…. those two that we're always together with, he told us he bought them"

That elf and spirit are bought slaves?

In that case, he actually really did come invade the castle just to recover a slave's item?

"The other slaves?"

"The other people aren't slaves he said, they freely live in the garden"

"Hah?"

I let out my voice without thinking

I mean, in that case, there are two slave, two that he dotes on, a group of guys that he let's live [in his garden], is what he's saying?

The demon G.o.d's thinking, I seriously completely don't understand

"That demon G.o.d, is he really 0 years old?"

He seriously doesn't give off such an atmosphere

"Yeah,……however, Shin-sama said he had memories from his previous existence….."

For some reason the beastman had a gloomy expression

Did something happen?

"Previous existence?"

"Shin-sama, said that he was in a different world…..though he died when he was 17"

(17!?)

Isn't that even before becoming an adult!

Humans rarely die before reaching adulthood

It's just children of parents who've dyed their hands in crime, or orphans without parents

Even for other races, there aren't many that die before adulthood

They won't die unless it's to the point of getting devoured by demons or getting an incurable illness

Even if they're captured by humans, children are valuable slaves

Aside from guys who are on in years, they [slaves] won't be killed

"How did he die?"

"………….."

There was no reply

I don't know whether or not he knows, but since he's making such a pained expression he probably knows

Did he die in an unspeakable way?

Or rather how did he die?

At that time, the demon G.o.d returned

"Shin-sama, what happened?"

The beastman made a relieved expression

Is it really that unpleasant to be together with me

Even so, if he's not a slave, then why does he call him with 'Shin-sama' I wonder?

"There was a demon king"

"Eh-!?"

The beastman let's out a surprised voice at the demon G.o.d indifferently saying so

(Demon king?)

Is he saying he defeated him in such a short time

"I sent the corpse to that king's castle"

"Huh? Doyle-sama's place?"

That is still, as expected, surprising

(It seems complaints will be coming my way)

The demon G.o.d often sends corpses to the kings' castle, but since dealing with them afterwards is always terrible I wish he would stop

It's that Doyle-sama

He'll absolutely come

That is for certain

The demon G.o.d sat beside the beastman and pat the head of the beastman who was eating

He didn't even glance my way

After a while, when he finished eating, he properly paid the bill

"Does the demon G.o.d have no appet.i.te?"

Today, he didn't eat anything

He only fed the beastman……

Like usual he didn't reply to my question

It's rare that he returns a reply

Together along with the me who rode an agony, he teleported us until in front of the demon G.o.d's castle

The two soon disappeared, and I returned home from there

Arrow-sama with me and Nina, us three, left from Gudoudotelia, it's probably fine I didn't report it

What I heard from that beastman today, it should be fine to just tell them tomorrow

Today, since I'm worn out, I'll return and quickly go to sleep

Of the information I heard today, the most surprising one was, as expected, that the demon G.o.d has the memories of his previous existence

It seems he died at 17, but what kind of guy was he I wonder?

I heard that he's now undying

In that case he probably wasn't a demon G.o.d

The demon G.o.d of a different world

That different world, what kind of world was it I wonder?

I'd like to try asking about it, about the demon G.o.d

It's highly likely he wouldn't reply though
