Butcher Demon

Chapter 106: Three Wishes

『N...No, you're misunderstanding~ ahahaha....』

Tiriel broke the silence with a laugh.

『h...hump sorry~ I think I made you confused, Gevaudan.』

She she bring her hand up and make an "oppsie" pose

『It's...a slang, a slang』

『a slang?』

『Yes, slang, you see, Gevaudan ...... resurrection means .......』

Tiriel's eyes lit up sharply. She even made a gesture of adjusting her glasses.

『It is about beauty surgery.』

『beauty surgery.』

Tiriel nodded approvingly.

『You see, Titania had injuries on her face and her body, right? It means that Ferris has to healed her nicely. ---- right? Arshella?』

『......Oh right! I've done that too, the resurrection. You see, I used to get injured in training ....... I even resurrected the fangs and horns that were broken by your punch. If I hadn't resurrected them, I'd be in a lot of trouble right now with a crooked face. I'm glad I did it!』

『Hey, Ferris?』

『...... Yeah. It's a little awkward for people to say I got beauty surgery, so people say I'm resurrected!! instead』

『Wow, I didn't know there was such slang. I hope you can resurrect me too, Ferris.』

『Eh』

Tiriel leaned forward with a smile on her face instead of Ferris, who got nervous.

『Well! It's a really demanding task for Ferris, isn't she? I don't know if she can do it that often. Maybe after that, she got a headache, lost her appetite, or some other similar symptoms ......?』

So she can't

She looked very weak and her head was in pain back then. I was so worried. So that's what this was all about. I didn't know that beauty revival was such a tought treatment with such a high price to pay. So, it would be terrible to ask Ferris for help too casually.

『Is that what you want to ask me? Lydia.』

In response to my question, she swam her eyes for a moment and then said.

『...... Thank you for taking care of Ferris when she was so weak! I love you!』

She hugged me with a smile.

What a surprise, Ferris had gone so far as to fix Titania's look .......

『It's nice to have Titania's beautiful face back. I own you for this.』

At my words, the four girls put their hands on their chests and breathed out a sigh of relief.

『Now I owe you two.』

『ummm....... I need you to listen to me for a little while longer. ...... is this too much.....?』

Lydia sent me an upward glance as she tweaked the index fingers of both hands in front of her chest.

『There's more?』

『You see, you kind of penetrated Urshela before, you know? That put her in a dubious position right now, but she said she was okay with that.』

There was such a thing?

I nodded my head.

『and, Tiriel also said that it's okay to let go of the matter of what happened with her brother.』

『Tulyal used Titania as a plaything, so therefore it was right fr you to kill him.』

Lydia giggled.

Tiriel quickly intervenes.

『Oh, yeah. It's okay. Don't worry about my brother, Gevaudan. I don't care about him at all. Rather, thank you very much Yeah. It's not about owing anymore. My brother brought it on himself. It's almost suicide. Oh, what a stupid brother. I'm sure he's regretting his life in hell. So forget it. My brother's memory has gone into oblivion. So, five seconds from now, Gevaudan won't even need to remember a single speck of my brother's life. ......five....four....three.....two....oneee!』

Tiriel clapped her hands in front of her chest.

I don't mind that you've already felt better, but that sounds like a terrible thing to say. I've heard that you don't like Tulyal, but I didn't know it was this bad.

『Oh, and Lydia too, you know, she's under house arrest for a while now. Although it's only a minor thing, there's a part of it that has to do with Gevaudan's naughtiness??』

Tiriel's smug appeal was followed by Arshella speech.

『How about it, Gevaudan? Anyway, don't worry about the details, just lump them all together, but that's means you owe us some favors hmm?』

With a wry grin, Arshella point at me

『Hmmm』

If it were a stranger, I'd ignore it, but these are Lydia's friends.......

My throat rumbled.

『Please, Jibodan.』

Ferris folded her both hands in a pleading pose.

I don't feel good about being forced to pay a debt, but I have no choice. Let's make Lydia feel happy.

『I owe you three, then.』

『Yay! Yay! I love you! please hug me!』

Lydia hugged me. As I wrapped my arms around her slim waist, I asked the important question.

『So, how do I repay these three debts?』

『Well, for starters, .......』

Lydia licked her tongue in my arms.

『You can't increase the number of wishes.』

She stiffened at my stabbing tone.

Maybe it's because I'm so close to Lydia that I can kind of understand what she's thinking. I think she's trying to play me as a genie in the lamp. But the truth is, I'm a butcher genie. I'm all white and slimy.

『No killing, no making people falling in love, no resurrection, no wishing for more wishes, no wish revocation....... Oh, but killing is fine I guess. I'll take care of it. I'll wipe them off the face of the earth. 』

『Oh, ha-ha. Of course, I know.』

Lydia scratched her cheek.

『All joking aside. Unfortunately, I don't have any money or anything, so it would be nice if I could pay you back with just my body.』

『...... hmmm ...... okay! We'd like to talk about it then.』

I said a few words to Lydia, and they were about to take another timeout.

『I want to go home, so can I ask you next time?』

『Oh, really? You can come again?』

『Yes. I think I can make it in time for the next one.』

『What do you mean, "in time"?』

Arshella asked doubtfully.

『Next time I come, I'm going to destroy Faymbaum. I'll ask you girls before I start.

*Pan-pan-pan!* Tiriel and Arshella slapped both of Lydia's shoulders. They both shake her face and her hair.

『...... Hey, hey, hey, can you wait for me, please? Don't leave? Never leave, okey? You're not busy, are you? You can use this pendant as long as you don't take it out of the house.』

Lydia stood and put the pendant around my neck.

『Since you're here, why don't you take some time and have a chat with the spider? ...... Stay! Stay here, Gevaudan!』

And then Lydia ran into the circle on the other side. I feel a little alienated.

--Can we talk now?

The circle becomes heated up, leaving me behind. While watching the girls, I talk to the diamond on my shoulder.

『Diamond, can you hear me?』

『Hey, Master(Husband)! Come on, let's go home! the young lady is waiting for you, she's lonely with her head hung low right now!』

Yes ?????

『It's too cramped for Master's big body in this uncomfortable place. Ah, it doesn't suit you, it doesn't suit you at all! What suits you is the young lady. Under the blue sky. He'd be better off lying in the river on his special spider silk bed.』

『Uh, yeah, .......』

It's very ...... chatty ......

『And most of all, these girls are just kids, isn't it? I'm in charge of taking care of the master for my lady. I don't want him to be here too much, or anything like that. Well, I don't complain about what master want. But we mustn't forget that we're in the middle of enemy territory! He may have a big heart, but the truth is, I'm already starting to feel like I'm gonna piss my pants!』

...

『It's almost winter, so let's go home early and sleep. Ah, winter is coming. I'm so cold, I can't wait to sleep! I'm sure the Old man Inceptiona is waiting for you with a warm bed and a place to sleep!』

...

I stretched out my tongue and cupped the tail of Ferris, who was making an impassioned speech in the center of the circle.

"――〓〒●★△●★☆Hyaaaaaaaaaa!?"

I can feel a wave of ripples run down her back.

『Hey, hey.』

『Jibodan!? What's wrong?』

『Come here.』

Ferris came running in front of me.

I flicked her brooch - a ladybug just above her nipple - with my finger.

『ngh?』

『Hey, hey, ladybug. Answer me if you can hear me.』

『boss?』

Oh ...... so all of you guys are calling me like that, huh?

『Leave this concubine to me boss! I've been entrusted with this task by lord godmother!』

What is concubine or lord godmother? The words are too old to understand. .......

『However, if I may say, It might be too much, but please give me a name! If I get a name, I'll be more useful than I already am!』

This is .......

This is so fun......!

I definitely want this pendant!

『So can I call you Namiten?』

『Namiten! My name is Namiten! Nice to meet you, little miss?.』

『Nice to meet you......』

Ferris confusedly reply to Namiten, who flashed open both wings with seven stars floating on her chest.

While enjoying such an introduction, the other side had developed into a heated debate.

Arshella got real angry. I think she's saying, "I'm going to kill you."

Tiriel is squeezing her eyes and shaking her head with a deep sigh.

Lydia also seems to be saying something in return.

『What are they talking about, Ferris?』

『What!? Uh......』

She wandered her gaze in a troubled manner and said, 『They're talking about bath.....I think』

『Bath?』

How can they get into such a heated argument over a bath? I still don't get the feeling of alien girls after all......
