Was Bought by the Demon King Right Before the Ending 156

Chapter 156 – Return of Gold

Rattle! Rattle!

It is already the third day since we left the capital.

As the carriage entered the country road in earnest, the inside of the carriage shook violently, probably because it was an unpaved road.

No matter how high-end wagons were made by the best shops in the capital, there seemed to be no business in front of the gravel fields.

Dorothea frowned and said, as if her butt hurt as the car continued to rattle.

“Hey. Kaldrash, is there any good way?”

“Wait a minute.”

I immediately used magic to create air cushions under everyone’s buttocks.

With this, no matter how rattled the inside of the carriage was, it was safe.

Perhaps it was only then that Dorothea stopped grumbling, and peace returned to the carriage.

While everyone was talking, Ozma, who was alone and blankly looking out the window, said.

“The scenery is beautiful.”

When I heard that, I shrugged my shoulders.

“Well, it’s only natural that this area hasn’t been developed at all.”

The Kingdom of Oz, which started out as a city-state about 300 years ago, is still underdeveloped in most of its territory, except for the capital.

This is partly due to frequent clashes with the demons, but also because most of the country’s talent and technology are concentrated in the capital city, and the polarization between rural areas and cities has intensified.

I don’t know if it’s because of this, but the further you go to the outskirts of the kingdom, the more difficult it is to come into contact with the conveniences of civilization.

While the capital side has an industrial revolution level of life due to magic engineering, the countryside side has a medieval feel.

Just then, Vanessa’s voice came from outside the carriage.

“Kaldrash! We’re almost there!”

“Yes?”

Hearing that, I sneaked out of the carriage window.

A cool breeze blows past my face, and soon I see a stretch of meadow and a rural village at its end.

Looking at the town’s famous windmill, I finally realized that I had returned to my hometown.

Since leaving Schwerin with Master at the age of 15, I don’t think I’ve returned home more than five times.

I sent money with letters to his father, but he was busy with work and never thought of coming.

Hee hee!

Eventually, the carriage, which had been running non-stop for three days and nights, stopped at the entrance of the village.

I immediately opened the carriage door and got out.

“Turn it off-“

My body is very tired, it seems to be a reaction to sitting for too long.

The rest of the party who got off the wagon following me stretched in their own way.

I approached Vanessa, who was sitting on the driver’s side, and spoke to her.

“I suffered alone. No matter how undead you are, you will feel mental fatigue.”

Vanessa then said, shaking his brown hair gently.

“It’s okay. A forced march like this is nothing. Rather, I’m more worried about your human body?”

I caught her worried gaze and emphasized the muscles on her forearms.

“Except for the fact that I feel a little stiff, I can’t help it.”

“Then I’m glad.”

Vanessa said that and showed her bright smile.

Really, who do you resemble to be so pretty?

After stroking her wonderful hair, I offered to sit in the coachman’s seat instead.

But Vanessa insisted on refusing to leave her seat, which led to a fight between us for a while over who was driving her carriage.

In the end, we compromised and sat down together.

Since it was close to the village anyway, we decided that those who would walk would walk and those who would ride in the carriage would ride.

Then Dorothea got into the carriage again, perhaps because walking was troublesome, but Ozma, Camilla, and Sophia followed on foot.

Dorothea, before, she even pretended to respect Ozma, but now she’s completely her master.

I was driving the carriage according to the pace of the other people walking, and I saw a person standing guard in the distance.

Perhaps the vigilantes chosen by the village youth association took turns standing guard, but when they saw us walking from afar, they reached out.

“Stop! Stop!”

We stopped at his restraint, and soon the young man, who looked to be about 20 years old, saw our group and talked to us, then gave a momentary blank expression.

“Uh… That… Where are you from?”

Looking at the bright red face, it must have fallen in love with the beauty of the women in my house.

Well, it’s not a face that everyone falls in love with.

I jumped out of the wagon and said.

“I’m from the capital. This is my hometown.”

Then the young man looked at me like it was new.

“You say our village is your hometown?”

“Well, I left 15 years ago and I’m busy with work so I rarely come, so I can’t help it even if I don’t recognize you.”

I shrugged and said that, then gave my father’s name, which I hadn’t heard before.

“Isn’t Schneizel among the elders living alone in the village?”

Then the young man became startled.

“Are you Mr. Schneizel, the richest man in town? Then the son you said was very successful in the capital!”

Now I feel like I can talk a little bit.

It would have been better if he hadn’t said ‘uncle’.

The vigilante youth who had stopped us opened the way for us to enter.

“By the way, what’s your relationship with these people?”

No matter where you look, it seems like you have a dark mind, so I said it clearly at this point.

“My wives. If others ask you, tell me the same.”

Then the young man looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“All five minutes?”

“Entire.”

“…You have good skills.”

“I’ve heard that a lot.”

Perhaps, if it were not for me who became a superhuman after reaching the 7th tier, no one would accept the overflowing sexual desires of these four people.

Recently, Sophia was added to that, and I was dealing with one person a day on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

At this rate, it may fill all Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

After patting the young man on the shoulder to remind him to wake up from his dream, I crossed the fence into the village.

A familiar landscape that makes you feel deja vu no matter where you look.

It felt a bit like coming home now.

***

My hometown, Schwerin, is a small village with no more than 200 households.

Most of the villagers are engaged in agriculture, and most of the goods were self-sufficient within the village.

Even if you say it’s the biggest store in town, it’s worse than the general store in the capital, but it’s called the general store by the villagers.

And I lived alone with my father in this village.

This is because my mother in this life gave birth to me and died of childbirth fever at a young age.

Perhaps it was because I gave birth in an unsanitary environment, but when I regained the memories of my previous life, it was long after he had passed away, so I couldn’t do anything about it.

Anyway, my father, who was nothing special, a farmer, raised me as a milkmaid, and at the age of 15, I became a magician at the sight of a passing teacher.

Now that I think about it, I can only say that I was really lucky.

It’s because there are few things that a nobleman like the tower owner of the Emerald Tower would come to such a rural village.

If I hadn’t met Master at that time, wouldn’t I have married a childhood friend who had taken my virginity by now and be farming?

While imagining such an If, I went back to my hometown, tracing old memories.

“What?”

Something feels different from what I remember before.

Apparently, my house was here, but in the place in my memory, there was a two-story house I had never seen before.

I looked around to see what was going on, grabbed a passing kid and asked.

“Little boy, is this Mr. Schneizel’s house?”

Then the little boy who took my question looked at me as if he was dumbfounded.

“Mister, are you a foreigner?”

Uncle again

I was momentarily furious, but I said it with a smile on my face as much as I could.

“I’m originally from this village, but it’s been a while since I came here.”

“Even so, how can you not know the house of Mr. Schneizel, the richest man in town?”

I was convinced after hearing the kid’s words.

This is our house

But being the richest man in the village, I remember sending pocket money to my father to spend it, but it wasn’t enough to be extravagant like this.

As I was thinking about it because I didn’t know how the alternative situation was going, the door to the two-story house, which was presumably my house, opened.

I thought it went well just in time, so I tried to ask my father himself.

However, it was not the father who came out of the room, but a young woman he had never seen before.

“??”

What the hell is this?

I couldn’t figure it out anymore, so I looked at the kid again, but the kid pretended to see me and greeted the young woman who came out of my house.

“Hello! Mrs. Schneizel!”

Then the young woman who came out of my house said, “Oh, what a cute little gentleman,” And she smiled brightly.

And I realized through a series of conversations between the two of them.

That while I was working my ass off in the capital, my father got married without contacting me.
