Broken Sword's
Ch. 18: Mouth Full of Lies

"Do you want to hear the summary or the whole story?"

Baramun was astonished. "What difference?"

Fang held a forehead. The missing horn seems to affect Baramun's IQ.

"When did your horn grow back?" It's always sad to look stupid.

"Maybe two years to three years. But the shape won't be as good as it's gone." Baramun said sadly, touching the cut horn cut into oblique marks. Even if it grows beautifully, its size will not be as large as it used to be.

"Hey, don't switch the subject. Quickly tell me about a human named Albert and how we demons can coexist with you humans."

A series of stories are said. Baramun's expression changed many times, from strange, worried to unbelief.

Albert is a swordsman in his thirties. In reality this guy did enter the Droid valley, but did not manage to steal anything. More than a hundred people died from injuries, poisoning and murder.

The news of the death of the treasure-seeking group in the Droid valley reached all corners of the Gollum plain. Instead of pointing to the stupidity of the group that Albert brought, selfish humans mentioned that the devil was too cruel and slaughtered them all.

Fang told lies after lies. Baramun who was suspicious at the beginning was even brainwashed.

"Albert found your place. A throne is seen when they go inside, the devil cannot win against."

"You yourself became a real handicap. Next to your eyes is broken and you demons live in seclusion to hide from the chase."

Baramun's hands were open and clenched. We are a race of hundreds or even thousands of years old lost in a single battle?!

"We really lost?"

"You guys really lost."

Baramun's figure withered. "My king, what will happen to him?"

Fang's tongue was almost bitten. Demon lords.What version does it seem natural to tell as the losing side? Fang lowered his head, hiding his thinking expression. But Baramun misunderstood.

"My king's dead?!!"

Fang surprised. Baramun was crying like a boy. "Hey, why are you crying. Now your king is alive and kicking, what are you crying for!"

"But my king will die!"

Closing ears. Baramun's roar frightened the rabbits and some animals that were looking for food. The villagers who heard the frightening sound thought that a tiger had descended and rushed back home to hide.

"Where is the boy?!" Gana who locked the door of the new house realized that her son was not home. "Fang!!!!!"

"Don't wail anymore! People in the village will misunderstand that the wild beast has gone down the mountain."

Baramun who will howl stopped. "Where does Albert live? I'll find him and kill the man first."

"You won't be able to. Albert's residence was very close to the royal palace of the upper region. You want to defeat the enemy or kill yourself?"

"Forget it then." Baramun then remembered something else. "About demons and humans can coexist, how?"

"Married to each other. Have children together, spend old age watching children grow up."

"You fooled me!"

Fang jumped back to escape Baramun's blow. "Do I look like I'm kidding? I'm serious! Humans and demons can marry and have children together."

This case often happens in the future. The demon race in disguise is occasionally recalcitrant and abducts humans to marry. Having children, the devil who cannot let go of their children locks the man to stay until his son grows up.

More like actual prostitution, humans who saw their lives better after living with the devil became obedient and continued to give birth.

"You don't think the devil can fall in love with a human? You forgot that your king Kuro was born from a human father?"

Baramun. Di, he didn't know that his king still had a human father. "Seriously?"

Ck, Fang is now more like a history teacher. Telling all the news that is genuine or that he corals.

"Nine months later Kuro was born. The demon lord who got word of her daughter giving birth to a half-human baby did not accept and killed Kuro's father. Too sad, Kuro's mother also killed herself on the same day."

Baramun. So this is the reason why the previous king did not say anything when bringing Kuro came to the Droid's softness.

"Your king doesn't know he's half human. You don't have to tell her either. Sometimes it's better to be quiet."

***

Baramun's wounds healed and he was able to restore his disguise. Midnight blind Fang escorted Baramun away. In front of the village entrance, little Fang told Baramun to slightly bow.

"I know you're still worried. Humans and demons sound weird, right? You'll understand later, hehehe"

After seizing the underworld, Baramun falls in love with a human and kidnaps him. The ending is not very good. The woman bit her tongue to death on their wedding night.

Baramun quickly left. The longer he stays, the more trusting he is.

***

"You're wiping what?"

Gana picked up the thing that Fang kept swiping. "What kind of rock is this?"

Fang tried to retake. Jumping around to grab but his dwarf body could not surpass. "Dad give me back my stone!"

"Squeezer. Take this too."

Handing over the new green, Gana also gave the yellow stone that had long been stored.

???

Fang looked at his two palms that were holding two stones. Great!!!

Fang hugged Gana's spoiled leg. "Dad, have I ever praised you handsome?"

Pleased feels.

Three stones he had already obtained.

There is a blue stone to look for. Fang, who put two stones into a cloth wallet, woke up from a daydream. "Where?"

Gana and Aira were discussing which school Fang should attend. "Do you want to go to school in the next village or district town?"

"I don't want to go to school!!" Fang's pair of small legs wanted to escape but his collar was caught. Gana hit Fang's ass once.

"What do you mean you don't want to go to school! You have to go."

"don't want. I don't want to! Ibuuuu, buuuu"

Aira looked the other way. Father and son always make a scene. "I'll cook. You guys just keep going."

"No, ibuuuu. Your baby's molested!!! Buuu"

"Who are you calling a baby?! Almost five years old, shame on me!"

"It's still a long time for me to be five years old! Just a month ago I celebrated my fourth birthday. Dad, you let go!"

***

Baramun who came out from the lower region was picked up by two of his subordinates.

"Boss!" Two pairs of eyes looked anxious. Baramun who released his human disguise revealed a missing horn.

"Did the child you were looking for hurt you?!"

"Don't talk here. Go back to it."
