That Day I Became A Daughter Of The Demon Lord
Episode 46's

My feelings are not good.

Edgar was silent from now on, holding hands while looking at me. The delicious dish in front of him was completely untouched. Face flat. A little discomfort in his eyes. I can guess his mind. Must be about Reon visiting today.

"Papa why? Is something troubling papa's mind?" I keep asking, even though I can guess the answer.

"Is there any need for the Crown Prince of Alasca Kingdom to visit you today?" Edgar asked back.

Well, my guess is right. About Reon.

"Ahh," I put my spoon in the bowl, changed my sitting position and ready to tell a story. "Yesterday the princes hunted wild animals into the forest. But they instead met a herd of dragons. They were attacked and Prince Reon got a burn on his shoulder. He was allergic to some of the ingredients in the medicine made by the doctor. Princess Viona tells the salaf features commonly used by Prince Reon. It just so happens that Madam Amber once taught me how to make it."

"Then?"

"I made it, also put it in a box so that he could use it in his palace. But the box fell on the way home. And somehow his skin suddenly allergic to the salaf he used. So he came here again to ask me to make that salaf again" I explained.

Edgar's expression did not change. But he started touching his spoon. "Hmm, good approach. He has feelings for you."

"What?"

"You have feelings for her?" asked Edgar with a full face.

"No," I replied as I held back the spoon that had slipped out of my hand.

"Absolutely not?" ask again, make sure.

I'm nodding. "Yep."

"As it turned out. Only he has feelings of liking. It's one-sided love." Edgar mutters.

"I've only talked to him a few times, how could I like him?"

And that little test must have been very dangerous and life-threatening. I'm sure of it.

"I get. Papa was worried about me. But I really don't have feelings for her. Believe me, so far I only love papa," I smiled.

I could see his face starting to soften. It seems Edgar's worries are starting to subside. A spoonful of food had entered his mouth.

Honestly, Edgar worries me a little. When there's a guy who likes me, he gets like this. Then when I got mold poisoning, she was so frustrated. Not sleeping for a week, waiting for me to open my eyes. I can't imagine what he'll do when my time to leave has come. She must be very sad. But the fact that my life here is only 63 years old cannot be changed.

I want to be here forever.

Should I tell Edgar this?

"By the way next week is Princess Alleria's fifteenth birthday. The invitation from the Athelion Kingdom had come this afternoon." Edgar opened the conversation.

Alleria's daughter is Prince Arthur's sister and the twins.

I'm nodding. "Will papa attend the invitation?"

"It seems I can't. You want to come?"

I'm nodding. "Princess Alicia and Princess Aluna are my friends. Of course I'll come."

"alright. Don't forget to bring a dagger and wear your rose necklace. Ask Rekta to accompany you. If anything happens, never fight back. Prioritize to buy time. I'll come and beat up a creature that dares to mess with you" said Edgar with a face that looks terrible. But to me his face was very soothing.

"OK, papa. I get it."
