Volume 3 - Chapter 7: The encounter

At a faraway place, high above the clouds, away from any civilization, there existed a floating fortress. Within the floating fortress, there was the Ruler of the Universe that sat on his throne...

“What the hell is Mirao doing...he can't even handle something petty like controlling the Demon Realm...looks like I have to send in more people...” Garoth was contemplating on Mirao's failure and pointed to the three figures that kneeled in front of him.

“You three...go to the Demon Realm and make sure everything is settled! I don't want any more mistakes!” Garoth bellowed at the three and they nodded.

One of the figures immediately left and the remaining two were a bit hesitant on leaving but they eventually left.

Garoth looked to his side and saw his Queen, Lillith who was still angry that Asmodan was banished and Garoth was still clueless about Lillith's debauchery.

At a certain noblewoman's house, Lenia was sitting on a chair thinking...Lenia was thinking about Souma, the man that took care of her...

'I wonder what Souma is doing...did he leave Ethros...did he leave the capital...or did he follow me here...I wonder what he is doing now...'

Lenia was in deep thought and normally she wouldn't be like this but she wanted to know more about Souma and she also wanted to repay him back for taking care of her.

Lenia's mother was staring at her daughter and thought...

'I wonder...who Lenia is interested in...she has that womanly charm...it seems like she's found someone she likes...I want to meet this person...!!' Lenia's mother flared up and Lenia saw her...

“Ah! Mother! Can I go out into the city...I want to look around for a bit and go visit Se'thran and grandma Et'rie!” Lenia asked her mother politely as she loved her mother.

“Sure dear, just make sure you don't stay out too long and come back safely...” Lenia's mother agreed and Lenia immediately left the manor.

As she ran outside the gate, a board was spotted that had the words...

[Household of the noblewoman, Flora Landers]

At the Demon Realm, the demons were causing minor riots after their Demon King had descended. Many of which were loudly cheering at the destruction of the fake Demon King's palace. The demons were wandering the streets looking for their Demon King, hoping to restore him to his throne.

The Shidan was active throughout the areas because the demons were being active. The Shidan never received any orders after Mirao's disappearance and everyone thought that Mirao had died. The Shidan finally decided to guard the Human areas just in case anything were to happen. Although the Demons didn't like the humans, it was mainly that bastard, Mirao's fault. The Demons weren't going to kill humans for no reason, they never really had to but Mirao was a different story. The Shidan decided to protect the humans even if they were demons because they'd rather not spill pointless bloodshed.

The demons are a nice race if you're on their side but sometimes they are a bit bloodthirsty.

It was a new day in the Demon Realm...

In the Eastern District, the streets were busy as the appearance of the Demon King shocked the entire realm. Except for one place; The Inn.

The Inn was the only place where everything was totally quiet. Everyone was sleeping after last night's events with Souma and the guests were finally getting their rest.

At Rm. 10, Souma was sleeping peacefully between the three girls and Erika was hugging him tightly. Souma subconsciously activated his Restoration field and luckily for him, he didn't cast it on the girls otherwise they would've woken up too.

Souma was beginning to wake up and he opened his eyes and began to mumble...

“...I am never...going to do that again...this is the last time...” Souma was shaking his head slightly and then he turned his head over...

Souma was eyeing his work as the three girls were still sleeping peacefully and naked.

'Gah...I did a number on these girls...I AM NOT GOING TO DO THAT AGAIN!!! GAHHH!! I AM A CHEATER, AN ADULTERER NOOOOO!!!!'

Souma was feeling regretful after he recalled his memories from last night and the events were still vivid in his mind.

Ojii-chan: You...I don't know if I should stay linked with you boy...

Souma: REALLY OJII!...COME ON!!

Ojii-chan: I'm just kidding...but you need to hurry up and go visit Et'rie. She needs you to hurry and get there.

Souma: Alright..I am gonna go there.

Souma EX: Oh Souma, because of how you were a champ last night, I did something good for once. I reverted everyone back to normal and they should be alright.

Souma: Really...I don't want to remember last night...

Souma EX: KAKAKA!! You are a champ really! Those techniques...where'd you learn them from...I bet it was from Kami-sama!

Souma: SHUT IT!

Ojii-chan: Now now, you two...You, Souma's demon ego...you stop messing with Souma...and you Souma hurry up and get going!

Souma: Fine...let me get dressed and do a few things...

...

Souma looked at his body and saw that his pants were on but his shirt/robe was still off and Erika was hugging him real close.

Souma then used his wind magic and gently removed Erika's grasp from his chest. He then used his wind magic to gently remove his arms away from Lina and Eriko as they were using his arm as a pillow. After doing so, Souma created a wind field directly below him and levitated his body, away from the three and gently floated himself towards the edge of the bed.

He was feeling a bit refreshed thanks to his Restoration field but he was regretting last night's events. Souma created a wind volley and whisked his shirt/robe towards him and quickly donned his shirt. He wasn't feeling emotionally well as he committed adultery but it's too late to go back now. Souma saw his katana blades on the ground and picked the two and placed them on the nearby chair.

He quickly found the blanket and gently tucked the three girls on the bed. Souma gently rubbed their shoulders as they laid naked under the sheets.

As Souma was painfully regretting everything that had happened, little did he know...that he was going to break his oath once more...

Souma sat down on the other chair and began to write a letter for the three girls...

Dear Lina, Eriko and Erika,

I am going to go for a bit and leave you three. I will return later tonight so you don't have to worry and don't look for me. I am going to be busy and I'd like for you three to relax and rest a bit. Last night was good but I need to explain a few things...BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO DO SO LAST NIGHT...Anyways, you three rest easy in the inn and I'll bring some food up for you three. Also, Eriko and Erika, I am going to leave my weapon here...please take care of it and make sure no one sees it...and Lina, when I come back I want you to explain a few things on why you are in the capital.

Also...I couldn't say it back then because you three were sleep talking but I would like to marry you three also but when I come back, I am going to explain a few things...about marriage and stuff...there's going to be a lot of explaining to do and I want you three to listen...

Souma

Souma finished writing his letter and before he was about to leave, he tried to change his appearance but he couldn't...

Souma: Hey you! Why can't I change my appearance!

Souma EX: Well, I don't know...maybe because YOU ARE A DEMON KING!

Souma: AHHH SHUT UP AND LET ME CHANGE MYSELF!

Souma EX: KAKAKAH! Nope!

Souma: Dammit! THIS IS MY BODY YOU ASS!

Souma EX: Technically, this is my body too, dumbass!

Souma: FUUUUCK YOUUU!!!!

Souma was about to argue with his demonic ego but his ego already disappeared and Souma was stumped to do anything. Souma grabbed his cloak and went downstairs to find something to eat and make breakfast for the girls...

As he came to the lobby, the inn keeper was awake and standing behind the counter. The inn keeper smiled and Souma a thumbs up but Souma just signed and sat near the counter...

“Ahh...do you have a kitchen...I want to make some breakfast...and I want to make some for the girls..gah...I can't believe I did that!” Souma was reflecting on his actions and he was slapping himself and then the inn keeper spoke...

“Ahh...your majesty...I can cook for you and yesterday's payment...the gold piece was too much and the room is on me...please take your money back..” The inn keeper was giving Souma a different treatment as Souma was the Demon King..

Souma looked at the inn keeper and spoke...

“No...keep the money..I paid for the room and use the change as payment for disturbing the peace...and stop that! Don't treat me differently!” Souma was adamant on making the inn keeper to stop his royal treatment...

“But...I...at least let me cook for you...I don't want your majesty to cook his own food...” The inn keeper kept the money but decided to cook for Souma...

“Fine...can you make three more breakfast plates...I want food for the girls...and I said stop that! “ Souma was really keen on stopping the inn keeper from treating him differently.

The Inn keeper finished preparing the food and Souma took the three plates to the room where the girls were still sleeping. Souma placed the food on the table and quickly returned to the lobby.

The inn keeper prepared Souma a good breakfast with extra eggs and bacon, an orange and a glass of milk to replenish the proteins he lost last night. Souma was really hungry and he quickly devoured the good meal and gulped down the milk. The orange was eaten first before he devoured the eggs and bacon. Souma was full but then one of the demons in the street came into the lobby.

Souma quickly covered his face with his cloak/hood and the demon was talking to the inn keeper...

“Hey Inn keeper! Have you seen Maou-sama come here? Last night, they saw Maou-sama running in this direction!” The demon was looking for Souma and Souma was covering his face to avoid recognition.

Souma was sweating a bit as the inn keeper looked at Souma and then back at the demon..

“Uhh...I did not see a demon king come here...if I do...I will tell you guys...” The inn keeper was hesitantly speaking but it looks like it worked.

The demon left the lobby and Souma sighed in relief...

“Oh thank you! Thank you really! Ah! I must get going...I need to be somewhere...and here...” Souma shuffled a bit in his pocket and used his void skill to conjure 5 gold pieces..

“Here...this is for hiding me...please use it well and don't tell anyone that I am the demon king...please...” Souma quickly handed the 5 gold pieces to the inn keeper and got up.

Souma was heading outside and the inn keeper spoke...

“But...your majesty! This is too much!” The inn keeper was worried about the amount he received but then Souma turned around and spoke...

“Then just think of it as an insurance! And stop calling me that!” Souma left the inn and went towards the direction of Se'thran's house.

Before he left though, Souma stopped by the stable to meet Rai. Rai was happy to see his master and he began to make comments about Souma's nightly activities and how he heard the cat noises from all the way here. Souma was annoyed and told Rai that he was gonna go a bit and he would be back. Rai knew that Souma was going to return and just agreed. Souma patted Rai's forehead and quickly sped to Se'thran's.

Souma was completely cloaked and he began to run in the crowds of demons that were looking for him. As he ran, Souma produced afterimages and the demons saw Souma's afterimages but in a split second they were gone.

Souma had already arrived to Se'thran's house and knocked on the door. Se'thran opened the door and saw Souma but then he immediately bowed...

The demons saw Se'thran bowing to the cloaked man and they began to whisper. Souma immediately shoved Se'thran into the house and closed the door.

Souma glared at Se'thran and spoke...

“DUDE!! WHY DID YOU DO THAT! I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU NOT TO TREAT ME DIFFERENTLY! GOD!!” Souma scolded Se'thran's behavior...

“Now...where is your grandmother...I came here to see her...”

Souma looked around Se'thran's house and noticed that his parents were still asleep in their bedroom. He was glad that everything was back to normal and then Se'thran spoke...

“Well...she's in the room where you were in...she protecting your armor using her barrier...the armor probably would reveal your demonic energy so she's been sealing it this whole night...” Se'thran pointed to the room where Souma had transformed in.

Souma quickly went into the room and saw Et'rie who was continuously chanting her mantras as she was guarding his armors. As soon as he entered the room, the armor quickly converged into Souma's body and dissipated into black miasma. The armor was completely gone and Et'rie finally was done...

“Fin...fina..finally you've arrived...I made sure your armor wasn't releasing any energy...I am very tired...but I will tell you...a few things...you need to find the person that will help you...he is detained somewhere...and I do not know where...but you can start in the northern district...that is the only place I could...think of...” Et'rie was extremely exhausted and she was about to fall onto the floor but then Souma quickly caught her before she did.

Souma carried Et'rie and Se'thran guided the two to the Et'rie's bedroom. Souma gently placed her on her bed and turned to Se'thran...

“Okay...I am going to go now...I want you to take care of your grandmother...and do not reveal that I am the demon king...no matter what...you hear...” Souma was looking directly at Se'thran and he nodded in acceptance.

Souma quickly dashed out of the door and the demons saw him.

Souma's cloak completely covered his outfit but several parts revealed his noble clothes and the demons finally spotted their demon king. The Demons quickly chased after Souma but he was too fast and instead they began to hut outside Se'thran's house and go on strike.

Souma quickly left the eastern district but as he was going, he immediately passed Lenia.

Lenia saw Souma's face and she thought he looked a bit familiar. His face was similar to Souma's original appearance but he had more regal features and Souma quickly dashed away. Normally, no one could spot him at his speed but Lenia wasn't a normal person. Lenia was half-human, half-succubus. Her powers made her really strong and she could handle a weapon quite easily. Due to being a half-human, she wasn't affected by Asmodan's banishment and retained her magical abilities. Lenia was a strong woman and she was quite independent.

After Lenia was done looking at the cloaked man that sped away, she turned around and headed into the eastern district where her friend, Et'rie was at....

Souma found himself at the center of the city and found the same blood fountain with the gushing blood.

Souma was about to go ask someone where the northern district but he finally noticed that there were 4 directional districts and obviously the northern district was located in the north. Souma then headed into the north direction and made his way into the northern district.

As he entered the northern district, Souma saw multiple demons on the lookout for the Demon King. The demons spotted Souma's cloak but then they ignored him. They had more pressing issues to tend to, like finding the demon king.

The demons were really adamant on finding the Demon King because they wanted to restore him to the throne and they did not want a human for a king.

Souma quickly ran across the entire northern district looking for suspicious places that someone might be detained in. He was looking everywhere that had multiple guards but still nothing. The only thing he spotted was a large mansion in the northern part of the district.

Souma knew it wouldn't hurt just to ask and he simply walked to the front entrance. He saw the front gate and noticed the board that said...

[Household of the noblewoman, Flora Landers]

Souma stared at the board and thought...

'Mhm...Flora Landers....that last name seems so familiar...aha! Wait...Neiru couldn't be related to a demon noblewoman...nahhh It's not possible...let's just ask a few questions and see where we can go from there...'

Souma rang the doorbell at the front gate...

*ding ding * the bell rang in a simple tone and the front door opened...

A woman around the age of 30, came out the front door wearing a bathrobe. Her body was completely covered but she had a womanly charm that none of the girls he knew, had. Her hair was long and beautifully red, similar to girl he just met when he came to Maran. Her eyes were sharp but had a kind charm to it and her lips were very smooth-like. Her breasts were nearly sticking out of her bathrobe and she spoke...

“Mhmmm.. Hellllooo? Who is here so early in the morning?” The woman spoke with a mature yet elegant voice. Something you'd expect from a noblewoman.

“Ah..umm..My name is Souma and I wanted to ask a few questions...I am new to this city and I wanted to ask for help...” Souma spoke as the woman was asking for verification.

“Oh, okay! As long as you aren't a human male...you can come in...” The woman was awfully cautious towards Souma.

Well Souma was a demon...err half-human...half-demon...errr...Demon King...well Souma is a bit of everything and he was a demon so it was acceptable.

The woman pushed a button that was on the wall and the front gate opened without trouble.

Souma walked into the manor and came to the front door. The woman guided him inside and he saw the interior of the first floor...

The walls were decorated with fabulous paintings and along the walls were intricate designs. On corner short pillars, there were priceless pottery and on a stool there were beautiful objects that shined in the entire first floor. The room was really nice and the floor was completely spotless.

The woman guided Souma to the chair and spoke...

“You can wait here while I go get us something to drink and I need to get dressed...It is quite impolite to greet my guests while in a bathrobe.” The woman spoke to Souma and he noddingly agreed.

Souma looked around and the woman spoke once more before leaving...

“Oh...you can look at the stuff...just don't touch anything...everything here is probably worth more than your life! Hehe” The woman was playfully mocking Souma but he didn't mind.

The woman left and Souma removed his cloak and placed in on the chair and stood up to look at the first floor...

Souma's outfit was revealed and his gently brushed himself as he patted down his regal outfit.

Souma went to the window and saw the window pane designs and he saw the front garden. Souma noticed the garden when he entered but it looked even more beautiful from this direction. Souma then was eyeing the wall designs and began to look at the portraits that hanged on the wall...

“Hmm...these walls...and paintings...seems familiar...like the fortress...” Souma mumbled to himself but then...

“What fortress...?” The woman spoke as she quickly placed the cup of tea on the table.

“Oh uh...nothing...” Souma was shocked that the woman already finished and stared at her outfit...

Her choice of clothes were perfect as they greatly enhanced her body figure and her shirt was easily boasting her breasts. The woman looked really young in that outfit and Souma finally snapped back to reality as he recalled the memories from last night...

'Oh god...! I don't want that happening again...'

But it was already too late...

The woman spoke...

“I don't know..when I saw your face...something started to draw me closer to you...” The woman was slowly closing the gap between her and Souma.

Souma was backing up as she tried to close in...

“Err..umm..I am just here to ask a few questions...” Souma was trying to create distance between her and him.

The woman spoke as she closed in...

“Well...what kind of questions are you going to ask...I am waiting...” The woman was eyeing Souma's entire body and she noticed his regal outfit and she wondered who Souma really was...

“Umm...Miss Landers...” Souma was about to speak but then she interrupted...

“My name is Flora Landers...you can call me Flora...” Flora crept closer and closer.

“Well..I am here...to find Asmodan's apostle...I need his help...” Souma finally spoke the reason why he was there and Flora immediately stopped and backed away.

She looked at Souma and then...

“I know where he is...but I cannot tell you where...I rescued him from that underground place...I don't even know who you are...I don't know but there's something about you...I am drawn towards you...but you look like a human male...” Flora began to glare at Souma...

“Wait!! I am a demon...I cannot prove it now...but after I talk to Asmodan's apostle...I can prove it to you!!” Souma didn't want to fight anyone and he especially did not want to die.

Flora bared her long claw-like nails and her sharp fangs. She then sprouted her succubus wings and glared at Souma...

“You liar! You are a human man! I WILL DEVOUR YOU!! Grrr!!” The succubus/Flora began to levitate and she was about to attack Souma but then...

“Aunt Flora! We're here!” A familiar voice echoed at the front door and the woman immediately paused right in front of Souma who was cowering. Souma could've fought back but he'd rather not fight someone right now and especially if the person was a female....

The voices were familiar and she glared at Souma to sit down at the chair and to not leave. Souma immediately ran and sat on the chair where his cloak was. Flora opened the door and she was being greeted by two girls...

“Ahh! You two! You arrived so early! I've missed you two so much! Both of you have grown so much! Ah! Where are the other girls? Is it just you two?” She hid her wings and fangs as she greeting the two females.

“Aunt Flora! I missed you too! And yeah...Neena and Shina are busy with their studies and we met Leia! She is the sister of the King of Algarun! She's a bit prickly but she's really nice inside! You'll really love her when you meet her!” One of the familiar voices was speaking to Flora...

“Ahh! I can't wait then!” Flora was ecstatic and then the girl spoke...

“Alina! Why don't you greet Aunt Flora! Stop hiding!”

“Fine...Hi Aunt Flora...I missed you too..” The other voice spoke and then it finally clicked in...

Souma clutched his cloak and he was peaking at the side of the chair...

'Gah! It's Neiru and Alina...What do I do...I don't think they'll recognize me...I don't think I can explain things without changing back to Rain...WHAT DO I DO!?...wait...I look different...they probably won't recognize me...probably...'

Souma gripped his cloak and was cowering behind the chair.

“Awww, I missed you too, Alina...I miss all of my nieces...!! but Alina...your breasts...you need to drink more milk...become busty like mine...” Flora was mocking Alina's breasts and she grumbled.

The woman hugged her two nieces as she was glad to meet them and then...

“Well..we will continue talk later...I have a guest and I have to escort him out...” Flora looked in the direction of Souma and he felt her gaze.

Neiru and Alina spoke together...

“Okay!”

Souma got up from his chair and held his cloak. Neiru and Alina were heading towards the other chairs and Neiru saw Souma, who looked eerily similar to Rain but his features were a bit noble-like...

Neiru stopped and spoke to Souma and he immediately stopped...

“Ummm...Have we met before...you look familiar...” Neiru was confused but she wanted to ask.

Souma couldn't explain things because he couldn't even change his appearance so he decided to lie...

“Umm..I think you are mistaking me for someone else..” As Souma spoke...something happened...

Souma EX: Hey...Why did you lie!

Souma: WELL IT'S NOT MY FUCKING FAULT THAT I CAN'T PROVE THAT I AM THE PERSON THEY ARE LOOKING FOR!?

Souma EX: Yeah but still! You liar!

Souma: Shut up!

Souma ignored his ego and Ojii-chan began to talk to Souma's demon ego..

Ojii-chan: Really...why can't you just let him do his own thing...

Souma EX: Well, He is the Demon King! He's going to learn somehow!

Ojii-chan: Yeah! But let him choose on his own! Even if he is the demon king, you cannot force him!

Souma EX: FINE! I'll stop...for now...but after this...

Ojii-chan: Wait...what do you mean...

Souma EX: You'll see...

As Souma ignored his demonic ego, his body was enveloped in a blinding light and his appearance had changed. His hair grew shorter but more spikier. The color of his hair changed to a blonde color and his height stayed the same. His face returned to his normal look and his body was forced to revert to Rain.

The girls shielded their eyes as Souma was covered in the light and they finally saw Rain...

Neiru was the first to speak and run at Souma...

“Hubby!!” Neiru screamed as she ran at Souma

“RAIN!! I MISSED YOU!!” Alina screamed and ran too.

But what stopped them was Aunt Flora...

“Wait!! He's a liar and he's a bad man! Why are you two going after him!” Flora wasn't convinced as Souma changed completely in front of them...

“No! Aunt Flora! Rain isn't a bad person! HE DEFENDED ME! When these guys were after me, Rain fought for me! He isn't bad! Aunt flora!” Neiru screamed as Aunt Flora blocked their path.

Then Alina spoke and it really shocked Flora...

“Yeah! RAIN ISN'T LIKE UNCLE! HE'S A GOOD PERSON! Even when he had memory loss...he took care of us and he was really special to us! DON'T TALK BAD ABOUT HIM!” Alina's words really shocked Flora.

Flora was confused and then Neiru and Alina finally tackled Souma to the ground. Neiru and Alina were crying as they finally found Rain...

*thud *

*slam *

All three of them landed on the floor and the girls were hugging him tightly...

Flora was surprised and she was tapping her foot, waiting for an explanation. Although she still couldn't keep her eyes off of Souma, she wanted an explanation...

Neiru and Alina were sobbing and Souma gently patted their heads.

“Now now...you two..I am sorry I couldn't return back to Evercliff...but I had no choice...I will explain things...stop crying...remember I don't like it when girls cry...it really hurts me...” Souma riffled through Neiru's and Alina's hair as he spoke...

“And...Miss Flora wants an explanation too..”

Flora was astonished that Souma knew the name of the city where her nieces were staying at and then everything clicked in. The girls really knew Souma but she was wondering why they were calling him Rain instead of Souma...

Souma looked at Flora, who continued to eye him but she just couldn't keep her eyes off of Souma.

“*sob sob * Fin...fine...I am just happy that you're alive...I really missed you...” Neiru was sobbing as she spoke...

“I am so glad you are alive..Rain!! *sniffle *” Alina gripped Souma really tightly and the two didn't want to let go...

“Okay...you two...it's time to get up...I am going to explain a few things...” Souma patted their shoulders and they quickly got up.

Souma sat on the couch and Neiru and Alina were clutching his arms on his side. Flora sat on the chair and was patiently waiting for Souma's explanation...

“Okay...my name is Souma Kurogane-- I am the descendant of Ryuu Kurogane...and when I disappeared...that was when I met my great great grandfather and he told me to come here to the Demon Realm...” Souma was explaining his story but left out the major parts that concerned his real identity of being Kami-sama's apostle and being from another planet.

Of course he couldn't just reveal that he was Kami-sama's apostle because it would've caused a great deal of commotion and also he couldn't reveal that he was the Demon King because it would've just caused more trouble...

Neiru and Alina were still confused but Flora was astonished...

“Wait...Kurogane...THE KUROGANE...YOU ARE RELATED TO THAT MONSTER!! THE SAME GUY WHO DESTROYED THE PLANETARY BELT AND NEARLY DESTROYED THE DEMON REALM!!! WOW...” Flora was pretty shaken up and Souma nodded at everything she said...

Neiru and Alina were confused but then Neiru remembered something...

“So...at the tournament...when you defeated the black magician...that lightning...it was because of this Kurogane person...?” Neiru remembered the tournament where Souma had dominated the skies.

“Yes..that was because of my ancestor...and when I found out about a few things...I couldn't return to Evercliff...I had to help my great great grandfather...I am very sorry that I couldn't return...I was really glad that you gave me a new name when I couldn't remember my own...and also a home to live in even though I couldn't remember anything...I am willing to pay for causing you all trouble...” Souma looked at Neiru and Alina and they had flustered faces and they were clearly mad...

Alina then slapped Souma and spoke...

“You think we did that for something simple like a reward...we really enjoyed your company Rain...we really missed you and we all love you...Please...please don't say something like paying us...you don't know how much you've done for us...we love you very much...no matter if you are Rain or Souma...or even if your face changes....we will still love you no matter what...” Alina was sobbing and Neiru was clutching onto Souma's arm.

Souma then hugged the girls and kissed them on the cheek...

“I am sorry...I shouldn't have said that...I missed you all very much...I am glad I am able to meet you again...I will have to meet the others later for now...but I am so happy that you two are here...”

Neiru and Alina blushed as Souma gave them a reward and Flora was looking at them.

“Ahem...well...you still haven't explained why you are here...” Flora was expecting an answer but she also wanted to stop the flirtatious atmosphere because she was getting jealous...

“Ahh...I cannot say...if I were...it would endanger you all...so I must keep it a secret...” Souma was adamant on keeping his and Ojii-chan's and Kami-sama's plans a secret.

“Fine...” Flora turned away but she was still eyeing Souma's body...

Neiru was puzzled and she finally asked...

“Oh yeah...why were you here at Aunt Flora's, Rain?” Neiru wondered why Souma was at Flora's estate.

“Well, I was going to ask--” Before Souma could even finish, Flora interrupted him...

“He came here to meet someone and I was just about to introduce him to that person...” Flora basically agreed on letting him see Asmodan's apostle..

“Now you two...go to your rooms...you should remember where they are...I will go guide Souma...you two hurry along now...” Flora told Neiru and Alina to head to their rooms but she also wanted to spend a little time with Souma. Even if he was a human man, Flora was oddly attracted towards Souma...

“Okay..” Neiru and Alina reluctantly left and went up the stairs...

Neiru stopped as she was half-way to the top of the stairs and looked at Souma...

“Don't take too long, Rain...we got a lot to catch up on...*smooch *” Neiru blew a kiss at Souma and Flora was glaring at Souma...

“Yeah...we'll be waiting for you Rain... *smooch *” Alina winked and blew a kiss at Souma and then Flora was furiously glaring at Souma.

“Ha...ha...take care you....two...” Souma was hesitant on responding as Flora was glaring at him.

The two girls went to the second floor and entered their rooms. Flora was glaring at Souma and spoke...

“What was that!? WHAT DID SHE MEAN BY HUBBY EARLIER!? AND WHAT WAS WITH THOSE KISSES! Those two are my nieces and I want you to take care of them! Don't you dare mistreat them and...” Flora was scolding Souma and she felt extremely jealous...

“Take care of me too...” Flora blushed as she whispered those few wordsand she immediately turned around and walked away..

'Wait...What!? What does she mean by that...?'

Souma was confused as Flora spoke those words...

“Now...hurry along Souma...we're going to see Asmodan's Apostle—Toru” Flora was pointing at Souma and gestured him to hurry up.

As Souma was walking....he was having a different conversation with Ojii-chan...

Ojii-chan: I am so glad my wife isn't here...

Souma: ….Why??

Ojii-chan: Because she might fall for you too!

Souma: REALLY OJII!! COME ON REALLY!?

Souma EX: KAKAKAH! You are such a lady killer, Souma!

Souma: SHUT UP!

Souma EX: You know...I don't think you need my demonic powers...you could simply conquer the world with your harem ship of women! Maybe even the universe!! KAKAKAH!!

Souma: GAAAH!! YOU ASSHOLE!!!

Ojii-chan: ….Souma...you are the pervert king...you are certainly becoming like Kami-sama...

Souma: NOOOO!!!!! GAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

Souma EX: Kakakah! Face it, Souma! SLOWLY BUT SURELY!! YOU WILL BECOME ME!!!

Souma: SHUT YOUR MOUTH YOU EGOTISTICAL BASTARD!!

Souma EX: KAKAKAKAA!! Get mad for all I care! You are just arguing with yourself!

Souma: FUCK YOU!

Souma EX: No thanks, but I think those girls would rather want you to instead!

Souma: GAHH SHUT UP!

Ojii-chan: Now now you two! Shut up! Everything is going according to plan...let's just hope no one else interferes in the plan...

Souma: Yeah...I mean just recently this asshole over here revealed that I was the Demon King...

Souma EX: What! You need to establish your status so everyone can praise you! That is the fastest way to take over the Maran Kingdom! Technically, you own the whole entire Demon Realm because Asmodan was banished recently...

Souma: BUT DESTROYING AN ENTIRE PALACE IS COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY AND WHAT IF THEY SEND MORE APOSTLES TO COME HERE!?

Souma EX: Pfft, just kill them! You may be limited by Kami-sama's god powers but as a Demon King, you have unlimited power !! You aren't bound by some stupid thing like a curse/limiter!

Souma: EVEN SO! I DO NOT WANT TO KILL!!

Souma EX: Hahaha! You already did! Don't fight it Souma...slowly but surely you will become the embodiment of evil...the bane of everything good...The ultimate womanizer...women will beg for you and your demon cannon...you are the bringer of chaos and destruction, the true ruler of the world...THE DEMON KING!!

Souma: SHUT UP! NO I WILL REFUSE!

Souma EX: Oh, but it is already too late...

Souma's demonic ego disappeared along with Ojii-chan and his words echoed deep within Souma's mind...

'It is already too late...'

Souma snapped back to reality and he was following Flora down several steps and stairs and they arrived at a room that had a mysterious feel. Souma could sense someone behind the door and Flora unlocked the door and the door finally opened, which revealed Toru...
