That Day I Became A Daughter Of The Demon Lord
Episode 6

Not long after I cried so loudly, the bodyguards and servants came straight to my room. Their faces looked shocked, fixated on the blood-soaked corpse of the man on the floor. Edgar looked at them with his cold eyes. Implied anger on his face which is always flat expression.

"What are you doing so that this lowly demon can enter the palace as he pleases?"

They just shut up, prepare to accept the worst. From what I've heard, Edgar never gave a playful punishment when his men made a mistake.

I squeezed the clothes Edgar was wearing, making his attention now focused on me. I looked into his eyes, hoping he understood that now was not the right time to be angry.

Face softened. There was a long breath coming from his mouth. "Tomorrow, at exactly 9am you must be at the Altair Palace."

Edgar turned around, walking towards the balcony with quick steps. The wide wings appeared black from behind his robe. The wing was exactly like a bat's wing, with a thin membrane-like shape and sharp nails in its joints. The wings start to flap

All right, it's kind of creepy to think he accidentally dropped me and I ended up dead silly (again).

I clenched my grip on his shirt, then closed my eyes. It has started flying. I felt the wind on my cheek. Aah, I hope his hand doesn't make a mistake so I don't fall.

Slowly, I opened my eyes. Ahh, that's great. I couldn't see anything because Edgar held me tight. Though I want to see the interesting scenery created from up here. In my previous life I had never been on a plane.

"All right, we're here."

Edgar landed in a room filled with shades of black and gold. This room is quite quiet for an emperor's room, filled only by a large bed, a sofa, a table, a wardrobe, bookshelves, and a closet containing a lot of swords.

So, where am I going to sleep?

"We have to take a shower first. You're stained with blood."

And this bloodstain came from you, yeah, it's good Edgar.

"Mahesa!"

The door quickly opened. There appeared a man in formal clothing all black, in contrast to his silver hair. The man knelt down, his right hand positioned to touch the heart. And again, his face is handsome.

"Evote the waiter to prepare warm water and toiletries for the baby. I'll be here in 10 minutes."

Really as good as jidat.

"Understand, Your Majesty."

The white-haired man got up, immediately doing what Edgar said. That's so sorry that handsome guy.

"You're gonna forget this, aren't you?"

Edgar began to speak. His tone sounded very serious, mixed with a worried tone.

"Don't get you involved with this."

Edgar took me into his arms to give me a sense of security. His embrace was not very comfortable. Well, reasonable. Edgar has carried me a few times. His hands are not used to it.

I was bathed by one of his servants. Name's Lina. The woman looks like a woman in her thirties if it is estimated with the age of humans. His hair is tanned, high dipole so as not to disturb. The touch is so soft. It seems Lina has experienced with this.

Edgar was right beside me, immersing himself in a pool of warm water with a sprinkling of roses and various fragrances. Her eyes were focused on me, watching closely how Lina treated me.

Lina simply smiled, as her hands cleaned the remaining soap in my body. "Your Majesty loves Princess Felice so much, huh?"

Edgar breathed a long breath. "We're just the two of us. Don't call me that, ma'am."

...wfy? WHAT'S?!

"Ahaha, okay, Ed. You love Felice so much, huh? And you were so eager to kill her while she was still in Princess Brezenska's womb."

Ah, surprising new facts.

"Somewhere, that desire is gone." Edgar's hand moved, rubbing my head very gently. He then added, "This creature is so innocent, I can't kill it. Not like her power-hungry mother."

Oh my god I was touched. It is not proper for those words to come out of the mouth of a demon. I questioned his devilishness.

"Will you take care of him? Giving her affection like mom took care of me first?"

I-i understand. Lina was not her mother, but her nanny.

Lina gave her sweet smile. "Honor to me, my king."
