Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son
Chapter 63: Little Picnic [Bonus chapter]

Bartrem, Mareona, Joseph, Jeffery, and the other soldiers from both Platoon charged at the hideous beast. Its scorpion tail stabbed forward almost hitting Bartrem as he dodged to the side.

Bartrem grimaced and slashed its face, angering the beast. "Attack its sides!"

The soldiers swarmed the beast in all directions, slashing at its skin, and creating wounds of all sizes. The beast roared and attacked back, but what it fought against were proper soldiers who were used in teamwork, so when the beast attacked, all the soldiers backed off and dodged at the same time.

Bartrem pummeled the beast's face with his sword. One time he even uppercut the beast on the chin, disorienting it. His fighting style made him look like a powerful and brave warrior.

On the other hand, Mareona moved like an agile snake. Precise yet deadly as her sword stabbed through the monster's neck.

"Nice job!" Bartrem punched the monster in the face, bringing it down to the ground. He raised his sword and stabbed its head. "Kill it!"

The soldiers quickly rushed at the beast from the sides and dealt horrendous damage to its body. A large wound opened up with blood pouring out.

Eventually, The monster died, and at that moment, Bartrem and Mareona glowed in a powerful life force. Some of the soldiers glowed as well. They reached Silver Rank while Bartrem and Mareona broke through the Gold Rank.

Bartrem raised his sword and roared. "Hiyaaa!"

"Hiyaaa!" the others followed.

Aldred raised an eyebrow. "Bartrem never roared when he won a battle before."

"Maybe it's because he reached Gold Rank," Mira said.

Aldred nodded. "That makes sense. Anyway." He grabbed Pongo by the shoulder. "Remember our bet."

Pongo crossed his arms and pouted. "Pongo pongo (I guess I have to steal her underwear again)."

"What do you mean again?"

"Pongo (Nothing)."

Mary walked to the field and lay out a mat on the grass. "Aldred, come here and sit with me."

Aldred obeyed and sat on her lap. His head rested on her breast. "What's the occasion?"

"Well, the weather is nice and we have traveled for quite a bit, so I decided to have a little picnic. The soldiers also needed some rest after they fought the wolves."

"That is true. They must be very tired."

Smokes bellowed from the side. Aldred turned his head and noticed Sophia was creating a fire. Mira moved her hands gracefully, and a blob of water floated from a nearby creek. There were three fish within that blob of water. Sophia stabbed the fish through the mouth with a stick and she cooked it above the fire.

Sophia looked at the boy and smiled. "Wait for a minute, Aldred. The fish will be cooked soon."

Aldred laughed. "Mary, let's help them cook the fish. We can also cook for the others as well."

Mary agreed and they both stood up to catch fish in the creek. Aldred summoned his undead.

Milet knelt in his undead form. "Your command, master?"

"Catch some fish for my friends."

Milet blinked as if he couldn't believe he was summoned just to catch some fish.

"What are you waiting for? Go catch some fish or I might start eating you instead."

"Yes, yes, master."

Milet raised his spear and slashed at the water. The water splashed violently and dozens of fish flew into the sky.

"Hey! Do it calmly. Don't destroy the environment, okay?"

"I apologize, master." Milet stabbed the fish one by one very carefully.

Aldred approached Sophia. "Let me help you with the fire." He fired a bunch of fire javelins on the ground. "Now you can just put the javelin into the fish and let it cook from the inside."

Sophia's eyes lit up. "That's very smart." She hugged him and kissed his cheek. "Thank you mas—Aldred."

Aldred giggled and kissed her back. "No need to thank me."

Sophia's eyes widened when Aldred kissed her back. Her cheeks blushed as she scrambled to grab some fish and put their mouth into the fire javelin. Pharder had never kissed her back before. He always kicked or hit her. She glanced at the boy, her red face intensified. 'He's a good boy. I should get his love.'

"Aldred," Sophia called.

"Yes?"

Sophia undressed "Do you want to do it here?"

Aldred blinked. "Sophia what are you doing?"

"I am giving you love."

"You don't have to do this to show me love."

Sophia showed a confused expression. "Then what should I do?"

"Just be with me, and have fun."

"I can do that?"

"Of course. You can do whatever you want."

"Whatever I want… Can I touch you?"

"Sure."

"Kiss you?"

"Why not."

"Suck your d—"

"Okay, let's not talk about that yet."

Sophia smiled with red cheeks. "Thank you."

"Huh? For what?"

"For everything." Sophia looked away from the boy and continued to stick the fish onto the fire javelin.

Aldred stood there scratching the back of his head. 'What did she thank me for?'

Mareona, Bartrem, and the others came to the carriages and smelled a nice crisp scent.

Aldred waved his hand at them. "We're cooking fish for you guys!"

Bartrem smiled. "Prepare the mat!"

Mareona ran up to Aldred and knocked his head. "I am Gold Rank like you now. Hahaha."

"Good for you, but why did you hit my head?"

"Humph. I will hit you whenever I want."

"Why are you so unreasonable."

She hit his head again.

"Ouch."

"That's for questioning me." She glanced at the fish on the fire javelin and frowned. "You cook them just like that?"

"How else should we cook them?"

Mareona hit his head again which made Aldred's head throb in pain.

"In a situation like this, flowers are the best." She reached deep in her pants and pulled out a handful of flowers.

"Seriously. Did you store flowers in your underwear?"

"It's a secret."

"You did it a bunch of times before. I don't think it's a secret anymore."

"What? You want to see?" Mareona asked.

"Oh uh… sure."

"In your dream!" She knocked his head again.

Aldred rubbed his head and pitifully looked at her. 'Pongo will steal your underwear tonight. We'll see what you hid down there all this time."
