HeroxMaou Chapter 22

Chapter 22
Reciprocated Love (Misunderstanding): Second Half

What did she say!?——was the thoughts of Goblin who was peeking from the shadows.

He has been secretly watching since Cecilia jumped out there.

Resultingly Goblin has misunderstood that Cecilia likes the hero.

even goblin!

“It really was reciprocated……”

t isn’t!

Goblin’s small voice leaked out.

There should been quite a bit of distance between him and them, but it reached the ears of the hero, Oliver.

demon ears

——her subordinate Goblin is saying that, so there’s no mistake.

Cecilia has finally opened up to him. He was so happy that he couldn’t help it. Goblin might cook red rice for them tonight.

(T/N: for special occasions and stuff)

——But in that case, the problem would be this woman(Elna).

He wished she wouldn’t say something like him getting sick of Cecilia and make Cecilia uneasy. Even though she has finally started to open up to him recently, what is he to do if she closed up again.

Of course, Cecilia has not opened up at all though……

yesyes

“Elna, don’t say strange things to Cecilia like me getting sick of her.”

“……! But, even if Oliver gets along with girls, it never went on for long!”

“Hm? Never mind how long, I never went out with or liked anyone before though.”

all misunderstanding

He had acted in a way that might be misunderstood or gone out with them to somewhere. He had certainly done that, but that was just how the girls who approached Oliver interpreted it on their own.

Cecilia was the first partner that Oliver was aware of.

never your partner

“Ah, come to think of it——”

“…………?”

what now

As Oliver declared that it wasn’t like he liked those girls, he seemed to remember something and looked at Cecilia.

Cecilia was already wis.h.i.+ng that he wouldn’t do anymore damage, but she couldn’t escape once spoken to. After all, she is being carried by Oliver right now.

yeah a bit hard to escape

“——Cecilia was the first, that I said I love.”

“……!’

ah yeah, first love

Showing a smile that was like the sun, Oliver used his free right hand to pet Cecilia.

Cecilia unintentionally blushed and shrunk her body.

That was so cute and lovely that Oliver couldn’t stand it.

resist!

——Ah, she really, is cute.

Come to think of it, Goblin(her subordinate) officially recognised them as loving each other, so Oliver felt that he needed to think a little more about the house.

even more renovation?

Can we share the same room already? I need to renovate the bathroom quickly. I also need to find a place for the wedding ceremony. Oliver’s brain accelerated off on its own.

bye~

——I can’t wait anymore.

hold it in?

“Cecily, let’s go back in the house.”

“Eh……?”

“Wai, Oliver!?”

bye~

Of course Elna tried to stop Oliver who had spun around and started making his way back to the mansion, but he walked off as if he couldn’t hear her voice.

ignored

Watching the two of them disappear from sight, Sora let out a voice of regret, “aahah……”

wanted to steal cecilia right?

——I wanted to see demon lord-chan a little more.

Sora, who had come as the hero, could not call out ‘demon lord-chan’ in a friendly way.

If it was revealed that he was involved w

ith the demon lord, he couldn’t come here as work and receive his salary.

He wanted to avoid that as best as possible.

If after Oliver, even Sora became wanted for opposing a royal order, it wouldn’t be funny.

it would actually

“Well, we can just come again.”

“Sora. Acting like it’s someone else’s business……Elna too, just give up on Oliver and find another man.”

“………..”

yes do that

Seeing Sora already going back, Elna bit her lips hard.

Even though she had this unrequited love all this time. Her feelings did not reach Oliver. On the contrary, he even chose the demon lord right before her eyes.

——what, should I do from now.

Dark emotions welled up within Elna.

Shaking her head, she left Oliver’s mansion with tears streaming down her face.

pause

play

“E, er! Let me down……”

“Why?”

“……!”

bcos you’re a perv!

In place of the invading Sora’s party, it is now Cecilia who is facing her greatest crisis.

Oliver kept carrying her and refused to put her down, no matter what she said, it didn’t seem like he would listen.

usual thing

“Ah, oh yeah, Cecilia.”

“……?’

When Oliver called her name, she had a bad premonition.

…

“I’ll leave your room as it is, but it’s okay if we share the same room right?”

“!?”

no!

Cecilia did not even want to understand why he suddenly asked that.

But, even the dense Cecilia understood the reason. Her own actions just now were not very good.

very bad

——Is he mad because I interrupted? Wrong. It’s because, I grabbed his arm……

He might have felt danger because the demon lord, Cecilia grabbed his arm.

Cecilia thought he wanted to share a room to keep her under surveillance so she doesn’t attack him from behind.

…do you really understand?

“Don’t look at me with such a cute face. I won’t be able to restrain myself.”

“……nn”

don’t you dare do anything!

Seeing himself reflected in Cecilia’s wavering eyes, Oliver couldn’t restrain his exaltation.

Lifting Cecilia up, he buried his face in her neck and planted a kiss there.

so jealo——i mean, SHE’S MIN——no, I mean, stop!!

——her voice is cute, and she smells nice.

His dangerous thoughts, told Oliver that he would definitely be unable to let go of her anymore.

….

“Hey, Cecily.”

“…………it’s, Cecilia……”

….

Oliver’s happy voice as he called Cecilia Cecily.

But even as Cecilia reb.u.t.ted, she was red up to ears.

so jeal….

It doesn’t seem like, the hero would stop doting on the demon lord——……
