Demon King & Hero Chapter 7.2

“Grrr… Now, how do I find them?”

The Demon G.o.d, who had actually arrived in the human world, grit her teeth while looking out over the plains of the wasteland.

Normally, she had information to do with anything and everything relating to demon kind, from the lowest minion to the demon emperor. But when the Demon King abandoned her blessing and accepted one from another G.o.d, she could no longer track him.

“Of all the countless years I’ve been a G.o.d, something as ridiculous as this, is a first…”

Thinking about that Demon King, an endless rage surged through her again, but her anger quickly turned to curiosity.

“Playing around with a hero, does things like this happen when heros meet demon kings?” (1)

Thousands? Tens of thousands?

She couldn’t even remember how long she’d lived.

The only really special thing that had happened in her life was the Heaven-Demon wars after all. But even among the multiple wars, she had never been shocked to the extent she was now.

“It was the capital of some empire… Urgh…”

Because she could see anyone with her blessing, the times where she remembered something exactly was rare.

It was then.

“Oi, you crazy b.i.t.c.h!”

With a flash of light, the G.o.ddess of Light, Raelle, appeared and started yelling at her.

“Hmph. I knew you’d show up if I did.”

Looking on her enraged counterpart, the demon G.o.ddess simply made a neutral expression as if nothing was wrong at all.

“Are you insane? The Demon G.o.d coming over to the human world?”

Just as Raelle spat those words out, from another light identical to the one she had come out of herself, the Sermir, G.o.ddess of Love and Benevolence, appeared.

“Perfect timing!”

The Demon G.o.d, who cared not one whit about Raelle’s words, rushed over upon seeing Sermir appear.

“Oh, h.e.l.lo-kyak!”

Our innocent Sermir politely greeted the Demon G.o.d, knowing she was of a superior rank… And the Demon G.o.d promptly grabbed her head and shook her about.

“This b.i.t.c.h! You dare lay a hand on my demon king!”

“Kyak! It hurts, it hurts!”

It looked like just a catfight with one side being shaken around by the hair, but it was important to note that one of those involved was the Demon G.o.d.

“Oi, what are you doing to my daughter!”

“Daughter! If that’s how you want it, then your daughter was the one that wagged her tail at my son!”

Looking on at Sermir taking a beating, Raelle also grabbed a fistful of the Demon G.o.d’s hair, and at that, the demon G.o.d let go of Sermir to concentrate on the new foe and grabbed Raelle’s hair in turn.

“Let go!”

“Says the one that grabbed first!”

“Iiieet?!”

“Fight me!”

As the two highest G.o.ddesses in this world began their incredible combat(?) Sermir managed to speak, holding onto her still-hurting head.

“Um, um,”

“Shut up! I need to trample this thing first!”

“Hmph! It’s your funeral!”

And then, Sermir saw.

The incredible shockwaves emanating from the two G.o.ddesses’ fight.

And the world about to be destroyed.

And the Chief G.o.d descending.

Masculine, yet feminine.

Childlike, but also mature.

n.o.ble, yet plain.

Looking on the Chief G.o.d’s figure, Sermir marvelled.

‘Tha, that’s the Chief G.o.d!’

And when the Chief G.o.d opened his mouth, Sermir understood.

“You wanna die?”

Just where the two sisters’ disgusting personalities came from.

“No.”

“Sorry…”

Looking at the two G.o.ddesses forced to sit in seiza under the incredible force exerted by the Chief G.o.d, Sermir couldn’t help but think,

‘This world… Is it alright like this?’

Having heard the reason why the two were fighting, the Chief G.o.d also thought,

“What is this, this hilarious setting?”

The Demon King had entered a covenant. Furthermore, not even to the G.o.ddess of Light, but her daughter.

“Isn’t this too much! A demon king is my direct follower as well as someone like my own son! But, that little vixen stole him away!!!”

“Hauuuuuu….”

At the Demon G.o.d’s rage-filled glare, Sermir could do nothing but shut her mouth and make a face like she was about to cry.

“Don’t you dare act cute!”

But apparently, even that pitiful position was one liable to incite the Demon G.o.d’s wrath.

“Yeah, that’s pathetic!”

“Sob…”

Sermir was genuinely sad. Sure, she understood why the Demon G.o.d would be mad, but to think that the G.o.ddess of Light, Raelle, who called her a daughter, would also be angry!

“Sob… Lady Raelle… Lady Raelle too… If you’re a mother, you should help your daughter!”

At Sermir’s words, Raelle averted her gaze ever so slightly and muttered,

“Don’t call me mother…”

“Why?!”

“I’m not your mother…”

“You are! You told me to call you ‘mother’ yourself!”

“No, you’re… Slightly awkward. More mature than me.”

“Hnnnng!”

Looking on Sermir who was about to cry and Raelle who was trying to avoid her, the Chief G.o.d thought,

‘Just how did the G.o.ds become such a bean flour family?’(2)

The most senior G.o.d, according to the geneology, said he couldn’t understand where this bean flour had come from and clicked his tongue.

“Anyways. Don’t you just have to follow that demon king?”

“But my blessing’s been undone so I can’t find him!”

“In that case, wouldn’t that child know?”

Looking at Sermir, who the Chief G.o.d had pointed at, the Demon G.o.d yelled,

“Find them right now!”

The end result.

“EEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?”

Yuria’s mental collapse(3) had begun.
