A Demon Lord's Tale: Dungeons, Monster Girls, and Heartwarming Bliss

Night.

The day had passed, and it was about time for everyone to go to sleep.

Recently, Riou seemed to be gradually distinguishing between day and night, perhaps due to her growth, and she woke up less often in the middle of the night, but Sakuya still often woke up at night and cried.

However, in those cases, Yuki, who rarely required much sleep as long as he was in the dungeon, and Lefi, who was the strongest of the physical beings because she was the Dragon, often took care of them, so thanks to them, the nights were rarely difficult.

The two of them took care of the babies when they were awakened by their cries in the middle of the night. They were often asleep side by side with the babies in the morning.

Those two really haven’t changed.

Seeing them still getting along so well and even fighting with each other just as they did when they first met made her a little envious.

Because she couldn’t be their equal.

It was not often that you saw a couple who were so well-matched.

After she finished writing her daily diary and closed her notebook, Layla stretched.

She still felt like putting the finishing touches to her thoughts, but if she didn’t stop now, it would carry over into tomorrow.

And she was not a morning person. If she stayed up too late, she would probably be teased by Lyuu when she woke her up again.

Looking over, she could see Lyuu already asleep, breathing softly and looking comfortable.

After smiling at her cute figure, Layla went to the living room, being careful not to wake Lyuu, as she was a little thirsty.

It was already late at night, so the family members were all asleep.

It was dark, and she could barely see anything, but she made her way to the kitchen with her usual gait and made herself a cup of tea to quench her thirst.

After finishing her drink, she rinsed the glass out and placed it in the draining basket for dishes, and then returned to the living room. As her eyes became accustomed to the darkness, she noticed that Lefi’s futon had flipped up quite a bit.

It was a rather bad sleeping posture, so Layla covered her with a blanket again with a smile to prevent Lefi from feeling cold.

“Hmm… Layla?” (Yuki)

“Oh, I’m sorry, I must have woken you up.” (Layla)

Yuki woke up because he felt the presence of someone.

It was Yuki, who was sleeping in the futon next to Lefi, who called out to her.

“Are you also on your way to sleep now?” (Yuki)

“Yes, I just finished writing my daily routine and such.” (Layla)

“I see. So… shall we sleep together?” (Yuki)

Smiling, Yuki shifted his futon to one side to make it easier for her to get in.

“Yes.” (Layla)

Layla, feeling a little embarrassed, but not refusing Yuki’s invitation, got down on her knees.

Then, she got into his futon and wrapped herself in his arms.

The warmth.

His body odor.

The act of being spoiled.

Even though she felt that it wasn’t right for her to do this, she convinced herself to do so… it was because being his wife had already become a part of her.

She had already changed. There was no going back.

“…Yuki-san.” (Layla)

“Hm?” (Yuki)

“No, good night.” (Layla)

“Good night, Layla.” (Yuki)

As Yuki held me lightly in his arms, I was surprised at how quickly my eyelids grew heavy…
