That night, Ito did not sleep all night.

The next morning, something bad happened to Ito.

"Ito! What's wrong with you?"

Gwen, who had just gotten up, saw Ito looking haggard and asked in surprise and concern.

The dark circles around Ito's eyes were visible to the naked eye, and he looked listless.

Since he hardly closed his eyes last night, Ito's head was feeling groggy and the world in front of him even became blurry.

Gwen's worried words echoed in his ears like a trumpet.

"I, I, I'm fine..."

As soon as the stubborn Ito finished speaking, his head felt dizzy, his eyes closed, and he fainted.

"Ito?!"

......

When he opened his eyes again, it was already afternoon.

I was lying on the bed.

There was a rustling sound from the left, and Ito, who had just woken up, turned his head to look in confusion.

I found Gwen sitting on a chair with the dragon wings folded behind her. She seemed to be weaving something in her hands, and her movements seemed a little clumsy and unfamiliar.

Ito was a little confused. Perhaps because he had just woken up, his brain didn't think too much, so he asked directly:

"What are you doing?"

Gwen looked up when she heard the voice and happened to meet Ito's puzzled gaze.

She smiled and said softly:

"Can't you see? I'm knitting a sweater."

“Knitting a sweater?”

"Knitting a sweater for the unborn child is the first gift I give to the unborn child."

"..."

Ito opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

My brain started to work and I felt a bitter feeling in my heart.

Alas, he didn’t know whether it was right or wrong.

"Oh, I don't know if it's a girl or a boy."

Gwen muttered to herself as she knitted.

After recovering some strength, Ito sat up from the bed with difficulty.

"I feel a little unwell. Can I go to the toilet?"

"Okay, don't report this to me."

Ito was stunned.

In the past, I would report to Gwen when I went to the bathroom, and she would even want to monitor me.

Now not only did he allow me to move freely, he even changed the original "this king" to "I".

Maybe Gwen has taken on her identity as a mother.

Ito was the only one who knew that Gwen was pregnant. She had just gotten pregnant, so there were no particularly obvious signs.

Gwen didn't plan to tell anyone else about this.

Soon, Ito left the room.

He first came to the Millennium Book Pavilion, took out the light ball stored by the administrator Jasmine, and then came to an empty corner.

In a small corner of the back garden.

Looking at the ball of light in his hand, Ito swallowed nervously.

Take a deep breath and activate the ball of light in your hand.

After a while, the ball of light responded.

The phantom Xinlai appeared in front of Ito again.

"How does that go?"

When he saw Ito, Phantom Xinlai couldn't wait to ask.

Ito nodded somewhat dully.

Seeing this, Xin Lai continued:

"Well, there was a delay on the way. It will probably take another three days to reach Gwen's Demon King's Castle."

Originally, Xinlai planned to use the space wormhole to teleport the puppet to Gwen's Demon King's City or the surrounding alien areas.

But this will leave wormhole-like breath fluctuations on the puppet Ito's body, and this breath fluctuation cannot escape Gwen's eyes.

When the puppet Ito approaches Gwen, Gwen will definitely notice something is wrong at the first moment.

So Xin Lai used the safest method.

That is, if you start from Waiyi, it will take at least two weeks to reach Gwen Demon King City at normal speed.

However, with the Speedy Demon as a mount, it only takes three days to reach the Demon King Gwen's city.

Three days is neither long nor short, so Xin Lai used this method to be on the safe side.

After listening to Xin Lai's words, Ito nodded silently.

There was silence between the two for a while.

Phantom Xinlai let out a long breath, his tone slightly serious:

"Ito, I have something to tell you."

His thoughts were interrupted by Xin Lai. Ito looked up at Xin Lai with a serious expression, feeling a little confused.

"What's up?"

Xin Lai's eyes became gentle, and he took the initiative to walk forward, only half a meter away from Ito.

"Ito, wait for me to rescue you...can we stay together?"

The first sentence he said made Ito freeze in place, his mouth slightly open.

Xin Lai was a little nervous, she knew what her words meant.

She, a devil who committed all kinds of crimes, confessed her love to Ito, a brave hero.

She continued to tell Ito what she was thinking:

“I know this may be too sudden.

I really like you now. For you, I can give up my position as the Demon King immediately after rescuing you.

I can grant all your wishes.

We can go back to the human world and I can become an ordinary elf. I will treat you well for the rest of my life.

I have never really understood you. I want to truly understand you, your hobbies, your personality, and your heart.

I will treat you well and protect you forever.

Of course, I won't force you to be with me. If you don't like me... I can also watch you silently from behind. Because this is my atonement.

If you want to return to the Brave Squad, I can agree to that, and I won’t force your life on you anymore.”

Xin Lai's heartfelt and affectionate words made Ito fall silent.

The bitterness in my heart grows stronger.

He should know.

You should know how Xin Lai feels about you.

Maybe...the old Ito would be surprised.

But now there is only pain and desolation.

Gwen was pregnant because of herself.

He didn't dare tell Xin Lai about this.

Now he was a little afraid to face Xin Lai's sincere eyes.

Ito's hands clenched unconsciously and his head felt like it was about to explode at any moment.

The pain was excruciating.

He stood up, his throat a little dry:

"Three days later, Gwen said that the Demon King's Festival, a celebration held once every ten years in the Demon King's City, would last for a week."

These words made Xin Lai slightly stunned.

When she came to her senses, her face was full of joy:

"Oh, right! How could I have forgotten this!"

Xin Lai slapped his head.

"On the day of the Demon King's Festival, the Demon King will parade throughout the Demon King's City for seven days. During these seven days, the guards of the palace's demon soldiers will naturally become weak!

Then! It will be the best time to put the puppet Ito in!

Ito! Your information is very useful! "

Ito watched Xin Lai dancing silently and sighed silently in his heart.

He has already decided...

He stood up and exhaled a breath.

He said in a deep voice:

“I’m not going with you.”
