WR – Chapter 296-297: Evil God appears

*Splash!*

Making a noisy splashing sound, what jumped out from the undiluted lifeforce was one lizard.

“Gyaaaaa!!” (Celestis)

“L-L-Lizard?! Noo, don’t come over here!” (Karen)

All girls hate slimy reptiles!!

And so, Celestis-chan and I were incredibly agitated.

At that time, *Gush!* the burning leg of Mirack-chan steps on the lizard-san.

Did she go through the trouble of stopping her fight with Gabriel?

“…What are you two doing?” (Mirack)

““I am sorry.””

Mirack-chan is manly as always!

“Look closely. This guy is not a real lizard. It is a monster.” (Mirack)

Mirack-chan lifts her leg, and there was nothing left of the lizard.

Once monsters die, they return to being pure divine power and don’t even leave a corpse.

(Good grief, what a rustic woman. Might be fitting for the hero of the muscle-headed Nova-san though.)

““Waaaa?!””

The lizard again! A lizard jumped out from the undiluted lifeforce?!

(I am not a lizard. This Crawling Devil is a newt water element monster. Well, girls like you that are filled with cotton inside their head wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between a newt and a lizard anyways.)

…What did it just say?

What’s with this monster? It is as if it can naturally piss off people.

In the first place, why is it that a monster other than the Demon Lords can speak human words? It is like Phalaris-san.

(Crawling Devil is a weak small monster, but its manufacturing cost is low, and it is perfect for a temporary body. Even if I get crushed like just now, I can soon come back.)

Is what the lizard says, or rather, the newt as it inflated and deflated around the chin. Is that the newt breathing or something?

“Geez, what’s with this?! Let’s ignore this little monster and continue the rescue! Each second is valuable!!” (Celestis)

(And I said I wouldn’t allow you, right?)

At the feet of Celestis-chan who was trying to head to the pool of undiluted lifeforce, the newt stood in her way.

(Celestis-san, since before, I have been tired of you not listening to me, but now I don’t even plan on playing along with you. You are already of no use to me after all.)

“What are you saying, you mere lizard monster! I don’t know about you!!” (Celestis)

Uhm…it is a newt.

(It is a matter of course that you wouldn’t notice. But I know you well. You broke the rules of the Church, and entered a frivolous act like being an idol, lowering the authority of a hero. A dirty girl that was born from the womb of a prostitute planted by the current Water Founder. In reality, you shouldn’t be worthy of shouldering the honour of being the water hero.)

*Bam!* a feet strongly stepped on it.

Celestis-chan trampled on the newt monster like Mirack-chan.

There was darkness I had never seen before in that expression.

(Fuhahahaha!! Did you get angry at being hit on the nail?! As expected of a brat, your emotional control is lacking!!)

The newt once again comes out from the pool.

What’s with this thing?! Unlimited newt works?!

(Let’s return to the main topic. It is my bad habit to derail. When I find the weakness of someone, I can’t just not praise it, you see.)

“You…!” (Celestis)

“Wait, Celestis-chan! Don’t get caught in his provocation!” (Karen)

If you go along with this lizard, we won’t be able to move forward at all!

(I said it before but, I can’t let you destroy this Ekhidna Spring. This is an important contract between her and I after all.)

““?!””

What does that mean?

There’s no doubt this Ekhidna Spring that this liza–newt is talking about is referring to the undiluted lifeforce pool.

I thought it was a matter of course that a monster would be protecting the undiluted lifeforce that the Lord of monsters has created, but the way this lizard acts, makes me feel like it is different.

This monster is the same as the others, but it has something that’s completely different from them.

“Celestis! Karen!! What are you two doing?! Is this the time to be distracted by such a small fry?!” (Mirack)

Mirack-chan reprimands us from the back.

(Seriously, it is as she says. To deal with me and forget about what you should be doing, a careless act fitting of a hero. Hohoho!)

The lizard mocks us.

The pressure that attacks us from our back made Celestis-chan and I turn back our heads.

There, a crisis was occurring.

“…Ara ara, so you have stopped those intruding girls. What a good boy, Lizard-san.” (Gabriel)

Gabriel had broken through the shadow beak of Doraha-san.

“Kugh!” (Doraha)

And Doraha-san, having her own attack broken, was hit with the recoil.

“The cooperation of many, using the power of nature; looks like you were lacking in energy to stop this Demon Lord.” (Gabriel)

“Not yet! [Flame Knuckle]!” (Mirack)

In order to stop this degrading situation, Mirack-chan released a Flame Knuckle.

It wasn’t a regular Flame Knuckle, it is a super high temperature Flame Knuckle powered up by the God Hero form.

However, Gabriel covered herself with the transparent wings growing from her back, and blocked that fire punch with it.

A fire attack of a God Hero was completely stopped.

“D—Damn it!!” (Mirack)

“Even between the Demon Lords and God Heroes, the elemental affinities apply. Water extinguishing fire still applies between you and me, you know?” (Gabriel)

The elemental affinities affected the battle!

“Too bad. If Raphael was the one here, you would have an overwhelming advantage.” (Gabriel)

(Being in ecstasy to the power of the God Hero, you ended up forgetting the basic principle of elemental affinity. As expected, humans are foolish. Humans holding the power of Gods is a waste of a treasure.)

At some point in time, the lizard monster had crawled up to the shoulder of Gabriel.

This may be obvious but, are they actually comrades?

(That’s why Gods abandon you people and the Gods decide to side with monsters. As the seed that will prosper the most in the surface world. You humans are already not needed. Please disappear obediently.)

“What are you saying?!” (Celestis)

Celestis-chan bites at the words of the lizard.

“You are a mere small monster, and yet, you are talking about the will of the Gods?! How disrespectful! There’s no way you would understand the thoughts of the Gods!!” (Celestis)

(No, I do.)

The lizard says.

(That’s because I am a God after all.)

“““Hah?”””

That statement took us three off guard.

What did that lizard say just now? Did our ears go crazy?

But that lizard said something hard to accept in a clear voice.

(I am the Water God, Coacervate.)

  • 297: The worst disclosure

The Water God Coacervate; one of the five bigs that created this world and the God that is worshipped by the Water Church.

It is the highest religious belief of Celestis-chan and the people of the Water nation, and the target to offer prayers.

That name has come out from such a small monster.

“…Don’t joke around.” (Celestis)

And of course, the water hero Celestis-chan’s voice trembled in anger.

She normally looks frivolous, but Celestis-chan is the water hero, the representative of the Water Church. Her devotion should also be higher than regular.

“Being an idol, I have heard many a joke from a lot of people, but this is the first time I hear such a bad joke. It was so bad that you would be dragged down in the middle of your performance and be forever forbidden to go air again.” (Celestis)

(Hohoh~, is that so.)

“The Water God Coacervate-sama is the holiest of existences for us Water Church! And yet, for you to insult it in this way! You are prepared to be shred to pieces, right?!” (Celestis)

Celestis-chan was serious.

She even forgot about the existence of Gabriel that had the lizard on her shoulder and takes a stance with her Miki-Moses.

“You are a God, you say?! You mere small lizard. If you are going to make stupid lies, make them when you have become a lot more majestic!!” (Celestis)

(And as I said, I am a newt… But you do have a point there. In order for us Gods to go to the surface world, there’s the need for us to use a temporary body. Just like that Nova-san over there.)

“WA?!” (Mirack)

The one who reacted to that was Mirack-chan.

She followed the gaze of the lizard and turns back to Phalaris-san who was behind us.

(…!)

“Then, he really is…?!” (Mirack)

Mirack-chan seems to have an inkling of what he said.

(I also wanted to prepare a more fitting body as a God, but lately, I have been involved with many bad people, you see. If I am going to have my body destroyed by them, it would be better to have a body that I wouldn’t mind it being destroyed.)

“Ara, I think it is a great body. It is small and cute.” (Gabriel)

Gabriel moves the lizard from her shoulder to her hands and plays around with it.

It looks like they have a good relationship.

“No matter what you say, I won’t believe it! There’s no way Coacervate-sama would be such a small lizard!” (Celestis)

Celestis-chan’s hostility was becoming obstinacy.

I at first was also adverse to this and couldn’t accept this talk at all, but little by little, I felt something that made me have no choice but to accept it coming from that lizard.

On top of that, as if reinforcing the statement of that lizard…

(Coacervate.) (Phalaris)

Phalaris-san faced the lizard and speaks.

(What is the meaning of this? Being so blunt about your existence towards the humans, isn’t that an action that breaks the rules of us Gods?) (Phalaris)

In response to that, the lizard answers with an attitude as if mocking it.

(Fuhohoho. The rules of Gods huh. You have become quite the good boy after living for a bit with the humans, Nova. If Entropy saw this, he would be moved to tears.)

(The Dark God has nothing to do with this. Gods revealing themselves to humans should be an inviolable rule, a taboo.) (Phalaris)

…!

Entropy, the Dark God?!

(When Gods reveal themselves to humans, the God and the humans will get too close that humans won’t be able to send prayers anymore. For the side of Entropy that protects the humans, the Gods being close to humans would mean that the humans would lose the strong spirit of trying to overcome problems by themselves. Thus, no matter what position you are in, the conclusion that we should ‘hide our existence’ was reached.) (Phalaris)

(Yeah, that’s exactly right. But that kind of consideration is already unneeded. That’s because the humans themselves are not needed anymore.)

The lizard says as if nothing; as if he were throwing a tool that he can’t use anymore.

(Nova, aren’t you the same? For what reason did you take that monster body?)

(……)

Maybe it hit a place where it hurt, the cow-san freezes.

His body trembles.

(Because civilization was developing, humans were forgetting their prayers towards Gods, and in order to punish them for that, you became the Fire Cow Phalaris, right? In order to bring divine punishment through the violence that a monster would bring about. Aren’t you one of the Gods that was already tired of the foolishness of humans?)

(That’s…true but…!!) (Phalaris)

Phalaris-san was searching for words to refute that, but as if saying he couldn’t, he lowered his head.

Phalaris-san was actually a monster that lived at the mountain range close to Muspelheim.

It controlled the place and should have moved in order to attack the monster, and yet, it didn’t; a mysterious monster.

At a moment in time, it moved straight to the city in order to destroy it.

If Haine-san hadn’t stopped him, Muspelheim would have been burned down without leaving even ashes.

What the lizard says fitted these points.

(And yet, you were defeated and are now basically a pet taken care of by humans. The heroic Fire God Nova has fallen so much.)

(W-Who is a pet?!) (Phalaris)

(Not only that, you even changed your own hero into a God Hero and are trying to save them from demise. Since when did the Fire God fall down to being a betrayer of his own beliefs? Being treated as a pet, was even your heart domesticated into a pet?)

Phalaris-san shouts.

(Are you insulting this Fire God?! Gods are the summit of this world! They don’t curry the favour of no one, and kneel to no one!! If humans are to pull a slight on me, my anger will become divine punishment, and I will burn those fools down!! …Ah.) (Phalaris)

As if Phalaris-san were saying ‘oh crap’, he looks at his surroundings.

There were three heroes here counting me who were dumbstruck by hearing the conversation of Phalaris-san.

(Now that I think about it, you people can hear my voice now……. No well, you see…!!) (Phalaris)

(Isn’t it fine? That testimony just now was the reality of the will between us Gods.)

The lizard laughed with its lizard face.

(You understand now, heroes? The Gods are already fed up with you humans. Being all high up with the ethereal, you stopped worshipping Gods and abandoned us. And so, the ones that were chosen as the replacement of humans by us Gods are…!)

The lizard crawls up the thin arm; the thin arm of the summit of Water monsters, Gabriel.

(The monsters. That’s why I am cooperating with her in destroying the humans.)

“Oh geez, I have received the seal of approval from a God.” (Gabriel)

Gabriel once again plays around with the lizard.

“That’s how it is, humans. You have already been abandoned by your Gods. Now that humanity has no use for the Gods, you have no choice but to disappear as an olden race. I will keep alive the culture you people have build up, so at least disappear uprightly at the end.” (Gabriel)

Is what the Demon Lord said as she held up a God.

  1. Thanks for the chapter!

    Hmm…as far as evil gods go, we have Coacervate, Nova, and Ates right? I’d say they’d go from most repulsive to least in that order as well. Ates just barely etches above Nova in my book because at least she has a more human motivation for genocide.

    1. Nova is not a true evil… he just got used by Coabitch because his brain is full of muscles….
      and now he already experienced to be loved by Humans… he protect them…
      it just he’s tsundere that don’t want to admit that.

      1. Well, of…course. That…was obviously…Coacervate intentionally provoking that exact…response…to prove…his…point…to the heroes…It’s been clear since…the Michael fight…that humans are really…growing on him. But none…of that…takes away the fact…that he was essentially…planning a massive genocide as a…temper tantrum…
        He hadn’t even…shown any remorse for it…before now in 297…in which it’s only barely…touched on. He’s…changing, but…the base is still…plenty “evil god” in my book…

        1. now tell me ~ what make someone “Evil”?
          if goes by your “Book”
          then Inflation is “Evil” too… since she do nothinig her citizens (underworld Country) to get massacred by 4 elements Gods, and force seal the Entropy.
          Nova is already prideful yet muscle brain God, its easy as deceiving brat for Coebitch to control him.
          he is just a Bad God, evil is someone who already wicked, Corrupt, vile to the core, just like this Coebitch who think allbeing life even his fellow Gods is just an entertainments.

          1. That’s exactly right, which is why I included Ates in the list. Inflation is evil too.

            Though it should be noted that I don’t consider the actions you listed to be why she’s evil-those are just “mistakes”, which is different. Inflation is evil because she’s more than happy to hurt people if it will get her what she wants, and she will feel no remorse doing so as long as she actually does get what she wanted.

            We could split hairs over the definition of evil for days, but I’ll give a quick rundown:

            The way I define evil is “acting with malice towards other people” with the bottom line being how much you feel and obey a moral code. There are a couple of modifiers to this, like how much you were justifiably provoked into it, how extreme the malice is, and how much remorse you express afterwards.
            Still, I think it’s fine to label everything that fits this definition the blanket term of “evil”, with the rest merely being a spectrum.

            As a side, according to Google-sensei, evil is defined as being amoral, malicious, and, in some uses, implies a supernatural force. We don’t even have to argue the third point, and until humans grew on them, all gods but Entropy felt like they could ignore moral standards as “superior beings” (meaning any god can fit the definition of amoral).
            By this definition, that just leaves malice as the determinant for an Evil God.

          2. Hee ~ so evil always evil huh

            Good to know there’s mindset like thiis…
            Ates and inflation is different though… Ates born from resentment inflation have toward humans and Gods, but she actually never intended to harms the humans directly, she even come to mortal world directly to understand humans.
            Ates is her own, not inflation, have her own ego and thought, just because she born from inflation doesn’t mean inflation is evil too, Gods have emotions too, they can get jealous, angry, sad… It just because she a goddess, her negative emotions “runaway” from her and born to the world as new independent being. If we humans can do same… The world would full with people like Ates…

          3. …What? That’s not what I said at all. Evil is not always evil. If you add remorse to the mix, acts of evil become a mistake.

            If you follow my blanket term and declare that even mistakes are evil, then pretty much everything in existence can be considered evil to some degree. From the way you’re talking about it, though, you’re thinking of evil as a “pure and absolute evil”, which is unjustified and nothing but abhorrent.
            To me, something like absolute evil pretty much doesn’t exist-it’s all a spectrum of greater and lesser evil.

            …Basically, you didn’t get what I was saying at all. Evil is not always evil because it can change over time, which is what’s going on with most of the gods.

            And regarding Inflation, Ates is Inflation. They’re different beings, but you can’t say that Ates isn’t part of the goddess. She wasn’t “born” as a new creation, she was “split off/expelled” as part of the original. The fact that Inflation has her own emotions and ego driving her doesn’t absolve her as an evil god-it just means she isn’t an “absolute evil”.
            You are right about the last thing though. If humans had the ability to expel the hateful parts of themselves, the world would be full of people like Ates. Because the world is full of people with evil desires they themselves don’t want.

          4. huh ~ i got that from your conclusion…
            you say Inflation is evil because what she do… now tell me when she hurt humans and peoples for someone she love and feel no remorse?
            don’t tell me its another Gods….
            just because she had intention doesn’t mean then she become EVIL…
            i have intention to punch you right in the face, but never do it, doesn’t mean that i am EVIL?
            acts from jealousy, rage, fear, and sorrow is not evil, but when they have calm mind, sane and can think straight but still think and “DOING” something vile and wicked while fully understand the consequence then that person is a “EVIL”

            and i never saying “Absolute Evil” either…
            i just say evil on my previous comments.
            absolute evil is not exist huh?
            tell that to “true Evil God” on another stories out there and “Satan, devil” that recorded in Real History or bible…..

            just because they from same source, doesn’t mean they’re same…
            they are like a twins, they come from same mother and share their memories together (in this case previous memories as goddess) but they are different being….
            Inflation is “give birth” to two of them… as “Yorishiro” and “Ates”, unconciously…
            “Ates” is more like “Demigod” since she has portion of goddess power (absurd divine power, since she can fight on par even owning for awhile against Yorisihiro and Karen without prayers energy) but doesn’t have Goddess authority (its still unknown if she can access prayers power).

          5. Intention to inflict harm for selfish motivations is evil. If you’re compelled to punch me in the face with no fair reason or justification, then it’s an evil thought. The fact that you don’t act on it means it ends there and doesn’t become an evil action.
            Being motivated by emotions doesn’t exonerate evil actions either. In fact, the worst crimes against humanity are probably motivated by negative emotions far more often than calm, sane calculation.

            Most of Inflation’s case is directed at the gods, yes.If you want an example for her harming humans for personal reasons, then the whole debacle with Dobbe could count as one.

            I would be the first to argue that Dobbe & Co. completely deserved everything they got and have no sympathy for any of them, but what Yorishiro did to them was decidedly not justice. She intentionally provoked them into a stupid hostage situation, allowed said hostages as well as the rescuing knights to put themselves in danger, and then set off a kill-switch to hide evidence of her involvement.
            These are not the actions of a good and just person, and her shame(fear of revealing this to Haine) shows that she knows this. It’s effective and beneficial in the long run, sure, but that fact doesn’t mean the act itself isn’t evil.

            Whether or not Ates/Yorishiro are demigods or whatever is purely speculation. Their status regarding that doesn’t even matter in this context anyway.
            They are both Inflation, but neither can define or be defined as Inflation alone. Ates is just as much Inflation as Yorishiro is, and you can’t say that her actions aren’t the goddess’s. Inflation is their source, but everything that she was now exists as either Yorishiro or Ates-there is no original Inflation body that’s still around after “giving birth” to the two of them.
            I don’t know how to put this any more plainly. If I magically divided my current ego into two split personalities that only act on my good/evil impulses, I’m as responsible for what my bad side does as my good side.

          6. Regarding “Absolute Evil”, I talk about that because you’re declaring actions as either evil or not, while I’m talking about a spectrum. Your examples of not-evil are simply lesser evils in my book, so it was important to explain why our definitions are somehow too strict for each other.

            And the Satan or Devil being an Absolute Evil is a whole other mess that deals with theological philosophy. The bottom line is that “Evil” in that context is defined by how much someone is opposed to God, with God being “Absolute Good” first. In Biblical teachings, Satan is evil simply because he hates God, who is absolute good and you must love to be good.

            I said “pretty much doesn’t exist” specifically to give wiggle room for unique belief systems like this.
            If you want to use this standard, then even Coacervate isn’t evil in the slightest because he’s the one that gets to define what’s good and evil, which is absurd.

            …Huh. Although…on this topic, it does loop back to the fact that Celestis refused to hate her god despite what he’s doing to her. That’s an interesting new angle to look at it.

          7. The part where said:

            “he’s the one that gets to define what’s good and evil”

            Makes me think of the so called talk Voldermort said to Harry in book 1 or movie. “That there is no good or evil only power and those who take it”. I think Coacervate fits this description. He is kind of crazy like Voldermort since he helped to destroy a civilization, tried to get a monster to attack the concert, and turn the people in to red water, but gets frustrated all the time when things do not go his way and gets angry like a child. I think he is just doing the attack because feels like he is at the end of rope.

          8. Yeah, Coacervate definitely is at the end of his rope, as shown in the scene he had with Yorishiro.

            Faith in him is waning, the Poles have plans to remove it completely, and if he tries anything excessive, Entropy has a way of actually bringing gods down.

            These three facts have pretty much sealed all the moves he could see, though most of it is his own fault for not considering the possibility of treating humans humanely.

          9. Actually, I might as well supplement with how the three gods I named fit into my own standards of evil.

            Yorishiro acts with malice if it’ll get her closer to Entropy, but she’s ashamed of it and does genuinely try to bring everyone as much benefit as possible. This all reflects a moral code that she’s simply struggling to keep to-thus they’re more “mistakes” than acts of evil.
            Despite that, she’s also more than willing to basically send the Base gods to their deaths over a personal grudge, so there’s plenty of “Evil” there.

            Nova wanted to kill basically all the humans for a selfish reason. Even when he lived as a cow, he only obeyed for selfish reasons at first. At that point, he’s very much evil. After a while though, he got attached to the humans and started to protect them. This doesn’t change his morality at all since it’s all still a selfish motivation; it’s nothing more than going from “Destructive Evil” to “Beneficial Evil”.
            But…in this release, Nova has begun to show something like shame at his actions in the past-even his current nature. That, is significant as a fundamental change to what he thinks is right and wrong. If the author digs into this more, Nova’s past actions can change from “Evil” into merely “a mistake”. Penance is the key ingredient here.

            Coavervate is a monster who cares nothing for anyone but himself. His “use anyone and wring value out of everyone” mentality is unapologetically evil, and moreover he definitely doesn’t hold himself to any standards he imposes on anyone else. An easy case.

          10. Didn’t know if we try to banish the injustice we become evil too, like you said to Yorisihiro, personal grudge? Her country and her beloved citizen get killed by them, its bs if she didn’t feel Anything.

            Nova is like deliquent child, he’s arrogant and have too much pride… But never intend to destroy all humanity, his intentions is just give them fear so they would cling to him more rather than to a machines. But he learned that humans love and prayes not only come from fear, but from hope and happiness, it just his pride make him tsundere to accept it.

            As for coabitch, no comment, that trash is not worth my time.

          11. That’s not my point. Banishing injustice isn’t evil, and what Yorishiro and Inflation have been doing isn’t simply banishing injustice.

            Getting emotionally invested or compromised isn’t evil, but acting with malice and trying to hurt another being is.
            If Inflation was only using Prayer Energy addiction to protect humans from the gods, then that would be fending off injustice. But because she was using it to punish-more or less murder, actually-the gods out of personal spite, she was performing evil. Mantle in particular had no ill-will towards humans at all, but she ended up being forced into the worst strain(not that what she herself did was entirely innocent).

            It’s not evil to feel emotions, but it is evil if you let them provoke you into acting with malice(which is different than self-defense).

            Your description of Nova is correct on all counts. But all that still makes him an Evil god-at least until now. The newly developing -dere feelings are putting him on a path of redemption and that evil is lessening, though still there for now.

            Incidentally, Quasar went down the exact same path as Nova, since he caused harm to Entropy out of pure selfishness, but gradually got better as he lived among humans and learned to adhere to their moral code.

            Mantle, meanwhile, caused great harm to her people but never actually expressed any malice or desire to harm anyone. So my judgement of her is that she’s barely shown any evil at all. The only counts against her is the fact that she caused objectively real harm and that she was willing to hurt the humans just because the others pressured her into it.

    1. I’m more curious about what the plan was if Haine happened to show up.

      No matter how smug Coacervate is, if humans are all concentrated in a single place then Haine can really sic his attack on him and Gabriel without worrying about collateral.

      You can’t exactly act like some mastermind if a single guy that everybody already knows about can undo your whole operation.

  2. Thanks for the chapters!

    No Nova, don’t go to the dark side! Overcome it with your fluffy tsundere cow powers!

    1. The problem was that he over-tsun’ed.

      If he’s going to make a save, he better swing into fluffy dere quickly. Either that or have Mirack “understand”.

  3. UUUWOOOOH! Coacervate may reside among the lowest branches of existence, but at least he finally broke that stupid masquerade that was being sustained by the Heroes’ willful ignorance. The best disclosure.
    He has my thanks for that, and nobody can ever take that one point away.

    Speaking of revelations, Celestis’s parentage is also quite fascinating. It had been touched on very briefly, but the illegitimate daughter of a whore, huh? That puts her diligence as an attention-seeking idol in a new light. And possibly her line about family after her match with Sarasa, but that one could’ve just been a gag.
    Either way, it’s another interesting addition to an already interesting character. Bonus points from me!

    You know what? I take it back. Coacervate actually gets several points in addition to his revealing the truth of gods. He’s surprisingly useful for creating good moments out of other characters.

    Provoking Celestis to add another layer of depth to her, provoking Nova to get him to self-destruct in a tsun, and, as a pleasant surprise, also creating an adorable image of Gabriel playing with a little newt.
    Now I wonder if all the Demon Lords are fond of lesser monsters like someone would dote on a pet.

    1. By virtue of being able to get a fun rise out of Nova that may or may not lead to him changing for the better, I’d say he’s still better.

      Him hanging over Gabriel’s shoulders is probably better exotic fanservice than trash brings too.

  4. Thanks for the chapter. The red water kind of reminds of the so called chemicals made to make those monsters in the anime “Ruin Explorer Louie.”. The foolish wizard teacher made a monster with it and was going to be use to take over the kingdom. MC (Louie) discover it and decided to pee in it which caused the destruction of the monster. Louie did think about and told the main villain he just had to pee. It kind of reminds of that so stupid hero would think of the same way of doing it just to stop these guys.
