Lord Demon is behind you

Different from the guilty touch before, this time the touch is finally no longer casual.

The brave were frightened.The other party bit his lips repeatedly, his attitude could almost be called fierce, but when he actually mouthed, the strength suddenly became very gentle.The sharp canine teeth slid across the surface, leaving a mark with just the right amount of force without hurting, and then carefully confirmed with the slippery and soft tip of the tongue——

The way of kissing is very instinctive, it can't be called any skill, it's basically just gnawing at one's breath.Because the distance was too close, the brave man couldn't see his expression clearly; but it didn't matter.From the movement, breath and body temperature, it is enough to perceive the other party's excitement.

No matter the other person or his own breathing is very rapid.The breath was exchanged nearby, making his face, which was already scorching hot, even hotter.

Probably the brain crashed due to overheating.It wasn't until he realized that the other party was trying to pry open his teeth that the brave man suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed the back of the demon king's collar with his backhand, and pulled him back away.

"Wait...wait a minute," he said, covering his lips, "now, at least not yet...there's no time to focus on this kind of thing. You understand?"

"..."

After he let go of his hand, the other party still didn't speak for a while.The brave man looked at the other party anxiously, and then jumped in shock.

"Are... are you crying?"

——This time it was definitely not a hallucination or misreading.Two lines of tears were streaming down that beautiful cheek, and the Demon King himself was staring at the brave man with wide eyes, the expression on his face was closer to bewilderment than joy and happiness.

What's the matter, this guy.Just now, when he jumped up to bite someone, he seemed to be very excited and active, why did he become like this once they separated?

He looked more bullied than confessed.

"—I..." He moved his lips, but said nothing.

Seeing his pitiful appearance, all the embarrassment and shame from before dissipated; the brave man only felt a little distressed, so he raised his hand to touch his face and wiped away his tears.

"Why are you crying?"

The Demon King followed his movements in a daze, and raised his hand to touch his face.

"I... did I cry?"

He looked at the clear liquid on his fingertips.

"I'm sorry, Brave. I must be... so happy. I'm so happy that I can't control my tears; I'm so happy... I can't help but suspect that all this is a dream."

He said lightly as if he was in a hallucination, and then grabbed the brave man's hand, "I, I shouldn't be dreaming, right? I can actually hear... Brave man, you said 'like' to me yourself, and Still willing to take the initiative to kiss and get close to me... You, are you annoyed by my stalking, and you just said that to satisfy me?"

"...How is that possible?"

Speaking of which, a brave man is not the type who can compromise his feelings after being stalked.Otherwise, I have been confessed to by so many girls before, and I can agree to whoever I want, how could I have waited until now.

——What's more, there's that kiss... If it's just to deal with the other party, you won't kiss the other party actively, even if it's just lightly touching the lips.

"But, but..." the Demon King stammered, "With your personality, at this time... I thought I would definitely not say anything... I couldn't help asking you when I was on the seventh floor. , I feel that it has caused you a lot of trouble..."

He held the brave man's hand firmly, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and at the same time slowly leaned forward until his forehead rested on the brave man's chest.

"You, can you... say it again? Please, I just... listen to it again. If it doesn't work, it's okay..."

--This guy.

Is it such an incredible thing to be liked by him?The brave thought that the hints he made before were enough.Whether it is allowing physical contact, or agreeing to the other party's invitation to go to the devil world in the future, at least the other party should have a bottom line in his heart.

However, the fact that "the confession was accepted" seemed to make the Demon King feel more unreal than he imagined.It wasn't until this time that the brave man vaguely realized how uneasy the other party felt when he was by his side.

"Yeah. No matter how many times you say it, I like you too. Just like you treat me. Moreover, the reason why I say this is purely because of my own will, and I have never received any influence from you or me. Interference with anything else."

Probably confession is a matter of first familiarity and second familiarity. The lines are similar, but this time they can be spoken very fluently.It may also be that the other party's relationship is too cramped; when facing someone who is far more nervous than himself, he almost instinctively wants to be more reliable.

"I also know that the timing is terrible now," the brave man took a few deep breaths, and forced himself to continue, "Obviously shouldering the responsibility of saving mankind, you should focus on your mission wholeheartedly, and there is no room to discuss these things. Personal matter... But, I can't lie to myself."

He put his arm around the other's shoulder and patted him lightly.

"I'm not the kind of strong person who can perfectly restrain my feelings. If I don't say it, it's me who really can't let go-I always think about you over and over in my heart, and I can't concentrate on thinking about the next step battle. That’s why I must tell you, so that I can feel at ease.”

"Brave..."

The Demon King was trembling from his voice to his body, and he grabbed the brave man's front.

"No, I, can I call your name?" He raised his head and looked at the brave man with hope, "Can I always call your name in the future?"

"—"

The brave man was suddenly hit by the perspective of him looking up in his arms.

How, how should I put it...

No matter how long they have known each other and how familiar they are with each other, they must admit that this face of the Demon King is completely worthy of a surprise from any angle.Usually, the two are about the same height, and it is rare to be able to see each other's face from a bird's-eye view. I didn't expect the lethality to be so strong.

Should it be said that this is the inferiority of male creatures... No, speaking of it, the Demon King probably did it on purpose.It is really hard to imagine that a person can use the advantages of appearance so skillfully to confuse people unintentionally.

The face that had cooled down became hot again.He turned his head slightly flustered.

"Yes, yes...Of course."

——For a high-ranking demon of his level, the name is a taboo, and only relatives and partners can directly address it.However, from the very beginning, the opponent allowed the brave man to call him by his name; does this mean that he has long regarded the brave man as his only object?

Now that his mood has overlapped with the other party's, the brave man is of course willing to let him call him by his name.

"—Ah... Arthur."

While chanting the brave man's name with great care, he threw himself into the brave man's arms again, and hugged him tightly with open arms.

"I like you. I love you, I love you more than everything in the world... The only thing I want in this world is your love. So," he shook his head, as if trying to endure the choked voice, his hair was falling The brave man rubbed his neck, "So now my wish has been fully realized. I feel that I have no regrets in my life."

The brave man felt his neck itching, and couldn't help shrinking back.He suddenly felt a little subtly bad; it really didn't feel good to be rubbed around by his sweetheart.

"Don't say that," he patted the other party's shoulder again, trying to calm himself and the other party, and get his thinking back on track, "Now is not the time, I still have important things to do, but wait for the strategy of the Demon King City After the end, maybe the future..."

"I'm, I feel, very happy now," he said staccatoly, "so happy that it doesn't matter if life ends at once—well."

Unbearable, the brave pinched the back of the opponent's neck again and pulled it away, then gagged his mouth again.

After a while, he turned his head as if burning, only to feel that the feeling was getting worse.

After confessing, he actually immediately developed the habit of subconsciously using kisses to block the other party's words, and he didn't even think of using hands—this speed of adaptation is simply terrifying.

"No... don't plant flags for yourself."

He said in a concealed manner, and at the same time quickly separated the two bodies that were stuck together.

"It's almost time to get back to the topic." He hurriedly turned around and stood back in front of the door again, "You, you understand, right? Now that I've made it clear, then...you can't be distracted no matter what. Definitely You must defeat the enemy as soon as possible. You must concentrate on facing the enemy!"

He didn't know whether he was emphasizing it repeatedly to himself or to his companions.

"Ah, wait a minute!"

The demon king seemed to want to say something as if he had suddenly woken up.

The brave man shook his hand slightly, and accidentally used some strength; the double door opened smoothly inward with a creak under his touch.

Even the brave man himself was surprised.Fortunately, it was quiet inside the door, and there were no monsters or witches directly launching a face-to-face attack, otherwise they would probably be in danger.

"This is……"

The Demon King also temporarily put aside the previous matter, poked his head from behind the brave man, and looked over the brave man's shoulders at the scene on the eighth floor in front of him.

"This...is really a bit powerful."

After a while, he sighed with great emotion.

As far as the eye can see, the entire huge scene looks like a very standard maze.On the transparent ground, walls of translucent materials rise from the ground, forming complex roads in a mysterious way; from time to time, huge holes or half-collapsed walls lie in the middle of the road, becoming an excellent obstacle to progress.Firewalls and ground thorns visible to the naked eye are scattered, protruding from the ground from time to time...

"Well," the brave also sighed, "I haven't seen such a standard maze for a long time."

Ever since they entered the Demon King's City, the behavior of the witches has become more and more strange.Except for a little bit of preparation by Stella, most of them were designed according to their own preferences-by the standard of the devil, it is undoubtedly not conscientious enough.

The eighth floor in front of me is completely different.Even when the Demon King was still the Demon King, he probably never designed such a perfect standard maze.All the designs aim to create difficulties for the challengers, wear down the challengers' patience and life as much as possible, but not let them die before reaching the boss—the design is so reasonable.

"As expected of Miss Sylvia." The brave man said sincerely, "No matter what she does, she is so serious, even being a witch."

"I was very serious back then," the Demon King immediately protested, "and I am very serious now."

He squeezed to the side of the brave man.

Now he seems to have adjusted his mood almost.Although there are still tears on the face that haven't dried completely, it has returned to its normal appearance on the whole.

The brave man unconsciously raised his hand and wiped his face, wiping away the tears.

"Brave, no, Arthur," the devil took the opportunity to grab his hand and put it on his cheek, watching him seriously, "I remember, you asked me before, right? I got your response, what will happen after that. Now, I will do what I promised at the time; I will definitely do my best to help you—because this is my obligation as a marriage partner."

"..." Why did you get married right from the start?

Well, forget it.Although I can't fully agree with the other party's logic that "rounding up the confession is equal to getting married", the facts are not much different.

For the first time, the brave man let go of all his mental burdens and frankly agreed.

"Then, I'll be counting on you next time."
