My Wife Is The Demon King

The throne room of the demon king's castle can only be described by one word, amazing. The ceiling was so high and many chandeliers was hanging down from it. This make the room dimly illuminated by the candles which enhanced the mysterious aura of the hall. There's a red carpet decorated the path to the throne. My lovely wife walking in front of me calmly like a model walking down the catwalk. She is dazzlingly enchanting.

She walks towards the throne and was about to sit down. It was awkward for me because there's no other seat prepared in the room. Where should I sit? Should I just wait behind her like an obedient servant? No no no. I definitely hate that idea. But, if she ordered her subordinate to prepare another seat for me, I am afraid it will cause some more problem arises. While thinking on the best course of action to do, I suddenly think of a great idea.

"My wife, please wait a moment."

My lovely wife that is about to sit on the throne stopped on her tracks and look at me.

"What is it my dear?"

Honestly I can feel some pressure emanating from her. If she shows hostility towards someone, I believe just from her gaze pressure she can kill that person.

"Here, sit here."

I immediately sit down on the throne before she got the chance to do so and patted my l.a.p a couple times indicating the place where she should sit.

"W-w-w…"

Without letting her finished her sentence, I immediately pulled her down to sit on top of my l.a.p. Honestly the feeling of her bouncy rear on top of me makes my Excalibur unsheathed in the count of milliseconds. She also blushed a little noticing my hard weapon touching her but she tried to maintain her dignified posture. Kazuki on her arms also let out a small cry. I didn't know what he means by that, either a protest or an approval of my action maybe.

It didn't take that long before the first subordinate of my wife comes in. It was a demon with a crow head and he wear some kind of armour that looks like a ninja suit. His black wing is folded behind and he approached the throne.

I wonder why he looked familiar.

The moment he arrived in front of the throne, he kneeled down and make a report.

"Your humble servant of the 27th logistic division Barnas is here to report an urgent information."

What the...?

This crow demon is actually Barnas? The one responsible for buying daily necessities for our village.

"Raise up, now tell me about this urgent information."

My wife allowed him to raise from his kneeling position and he make some weird look when he saw us. The dignified demon king is sitting on a man's l.a.p on her throne. I don't know what he is thinking but I saw him gulped several times before lowering his head and doesn't dare to lift it again.

Is he afraid that he will laugh at our weird position? Or is he afraid that my wife will punish him? He looked like that he saw something he shouldn't see. What was it? Examining him slowly, I noticed the bulge on his pant.

God damit! This cawing crow dare to have weird fantasy about my wife! Truth be told, if someone saw me and my wife in this position it definitely looked like as if I was connected with my wife down there but the sight is blocked by Kazuki. However, sometimes imagination is even more wild than the truth and I guess that's what happened right now.

Just wait you damned crow, I will teach you a lesson later.

"W-w-when I was in the town y-yesterday, I-i-I heard some news t-that the Elderham kingdom is sending s-someone to investigate the r-recent phenomenon of the Sarton forest. The m-m-miasma is definitely some kind of d-d-demon poison b-b-but even my division haven't found out the main c-c-culprit of it."

Barnas haven't regained his composure and stuttering when talking. Although it was amusing, since I know the reason why he acts like that, I only think of it as disgusting. Should I pick his feather and make him a feather-less crow? I want to see if his little bird is black just like him or not. Maybe tie him n.a.k.e.d onto a pole on the field as a scarecrow works too. But, the issue he raises seem to be important. My wife is deep in her thoughts so I used this chance to ask Barnas.

"What's the issue with the Sarton forest?"

By this time, he already calmed down a little and stopped stuttering.

"Recently there's a suspicion of a demon that is deliberately creating trouble for us. In the Sarton forest, a demon poison has been found recently and it even alerted the humans. The human also has started taking action and since it was caused by a demon poison we're afraid that we will become the main suspect of this. This can lead to a war happening in the future if we didn't take care of this. Although we didn't need to clarify this to the human, we didn't like to be used as a scapegoat by whoever causing this."

Hmmm, demon poison at the Sarton forest? I wonder what is causing it. For this issue to make my wife frowned like that, this is unforgiveable.

"My wife, you shouldn't frown like that. Although it won't reduce your beauty, doing it on a long time will cause you too age faster."

My wife who is frowning earlier immediately looked shy and ashamed. Maybe it was because I was flirting with her in front of her subordinate? Barnas also tried to shift his gaze at the floor as if he saw nothing and hummed to indicates that he heard nothing.

"Why don't you take some sample of the demon poison first? Maybe we can identify the source of the demon poison?"

I suggested that to my wife and Barnas and got my reply from Barnas.

"Answering to you, demon king's husband, we already collect some sample but we still haven't found out the demon which produces this poison."

When Barnas called me demon king's husband, his expression turned weird and awkward as if he didn't know how to address me. Of course I didn't even know how he should address me since this is my first time here. I guess that kind of address work for now?

"Can I take a look at it?"

"Eh, are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Alright Barnas, show the sample of the demon poison to my husband."

Barnas then took out a small package from his back and hand it to me. My wife looked at me as if asking whether I know what am I doing or not. Giving her a reassuring smile, I opened it.

The instant I opened it, a foul smell immediately spread on the throne room. Just from the smell it can be see how poisonous it is if someone inhaled it. Strange, I never know about demon poison before but this smell familiar. Where have I smell this? Have I encounter some kind of demon that produce this kind of poison before?

Looking at the package in my hand, I tried to look around to help me think about it. Barnas looked confused, my wife looked worried, and Kazuki he looked as if he is making an awkward expression. Strange, when did Kazuki is able to make this kind of expression?

The more I looked at him, the more awkward he acts. He started to let out small drop of sweat, moving his hand around until finally he want to cry shown by his teary eyes. Eh, what is happening? It was as if he feels guilty.

I looked at him, then look at the package of the demon poison in my hand. I looked at him again, and I look at the package again. Until Kazuki's look turned as if giving me 'you know what' expression.

I think I let out some cold sweat and my voice is trembling when I asked the question.

"Um, my wife, where is the Sarton forest located from our village?"

"Eh, why do you ask that? The Sarton forest is at the west of our village about three weeks on foot."

I can feel my sweat pouring even harder.

"U-um, nothing."

Oh shit! I knew it! This is my son's poop! Although the smell is diluted and changed a bit but I knew it clearly because I am the one who changed his diaper every morning. I also threw it towards the west direction of the village but I didn't think that it will go that far! Oh shit, what should I do? Should I admit that it was my fault? Should I stop throwing Kazuki's diaper in that direction? But what if it cause even more damage to other's area? Won't it be like the demon is spreading demon poison all around the continent?

I need to do something about it. This is my son poop. This is what causing my wife to frown. To be the best father and husband, I need to resolve this with my own hand!
