Angry Hero; Apology
I am disqualified as Alex’s responsible G.o.ddess. Chris, the steel G.o.ddess who was in charge of Alex, blame herself.
Because the G.o.ddesses were not able to support Alex, Alex became a Demon Lord. And cornering “Eternal Hero” Shuto to the verge of death. Shuto now, unconscious and in critical state. G.o.ddesses with the power of recovery barely managed to keep him alive.
Shuto who was laughed by the G.o.ddesses that “his good point is his st.u.r.diness”, was in a state where his soul could escape anytime.
Chris’s junior G.o.ddess Rura, is depressed, that the Hero Shuto who was in her charge in the verge of death.
Rura closed herself in her room, never came out, cried alone.
「Shuto!
shutoo~!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!」
Crying voice can be heard from Rura’s room, it was enough to hurt Chris’s heart.
After all, Rura and Shuto’s reconnaissance in Hortegram was failed, and judged that the difficulty is unmeasurable.
In the first place, he suffered a tremendous damage rather than reconnaissance.
It was a so fast.
A hero who is constantly keeping his level, was less than 5 minutes.
It was miracle that he came home alive, but I can’t hide the shock that he retreats to Divine world.
I will do my best, let’s believe in Hero, let’s believe in Hero Alex. And this is the result from put all the burden to Alex.
Even I search the method to erase the disturbance for over 8 years without result, when I think the disturbance finally over, the presence of the Former Demon Lord was gone, and the born of new Demon Lord are the result.
The strongest Young Demon Lord, Alex Vlad.
Being Demon Lord means he become enemies of G.o.ds and Human being from the bottom of his heart.
It’s become like this was because of one careless and pride, The G.o.ddesses value for Alex was high when he was still a Hero.
Alex who was gentle and serious, change because he experienced something that make him like that.
He hates everything, because he experienced it.
And to make him experience such a thing was because the G.o.ddesses lack of experience.
From Hero to Demon Lord,
just how much he was suffered?
Chris can’t imagine that.
Human run away from experience like that in the ultimate direction of “Suicide” and “Murder”.
Therefore, there was no word in Dictionary that He became a Demon Lord.
I’m so sorry Alex.
If I were always beside you every day…
Actually, I had to do so…
That you’re separated from your parents.
So, I had to treat him as my family…
Chris repeatedly apologized in her heart a number of times.
She still remembers clearly when the G.o.ddesses separated Alex from his parents.
Alex’s parents were,
wishing to find Alex that nowhere to be found.
Shedding tears,
waiting until late at night whether Alex had come home everyday.
It was such a heart-breaking sight.
With that in mind, Chris was opposed to make Alex a Hero. To immediately return Alex to his former world.
As he is still a child, so better to stop it.
It won’t be good for Alex.
However, after all, just Chris that opposed, no other G.o.ddess that oppose it.
And she probably got accustomed to the G.o.ddess position and salvation,
since the difficulty level is the lowest rank,
it was easy to think that it is okay to salvation with Alex as a Hero.
She forgot the weight,
how much the burden it is to be a Hero.
After all, the mistake that the Divine world committed can’t be reversed.
What she can do now is to stop Alex.
That what she thought so.
Alex who know the relationship between the Hero and the G.o.ddess and then mechanism of the Divine world to some extend, has become a person who is cautioned for the Divine world.
If the divine world serious.
Alex absolutely loses.
No matter how strong they were, there is no precedent that the divine world will lose.
Even the Demon Lord Lafire,
Once said to be the strength of Dozens of heroes, was defeated by the Divine world.
Chris was impatience.
Alex can’t win.
Alex will be defeated.
Before that happen, I must stop Alex.
Even I have to save Alex exchange with my life,
I have the responsibility and sin that I have to repent.
Chris is determined and stand up.
She went to ask directly to s.p.a.ce-time G.o.ddess Martena. [TLN: in Chapter 1 is Mayter, but I think this is fit more than Mayter]
「Martena-sama…. Pease save Alex’s life」
As old age Martena who even can’t walking by herself has a difficult face.
「Chris.. we had decided to send nine Hero to Hortegram」
「What is the purpose it is?」
「After Alex destroyed the Great Temple in west,
flying to the Second Great Temple in the North,
and the remaining in the East, South, and Central.
When these three Great Temples fall,
the power of Darkness in Hortegram will Rise,
and Demon will infiltrate the Divine World.
Because of that, we send nine Hero to protect these three Temples」
「And the dialogue…. are they not do the dialogue? 」
「Before able to make dialogue with him, The Eternal hero Shuto was beaten to the verge of death.. so, we determined that we can’t do that anymore 」
「Why are you not trying to help him?
Do not try to talk to him?
Are you not going to investigate the reason why Alex became a Demon Lord?
Will you abandon Alex like that? 」
Hearing to Chris Question, Martena just shook her head.
That did not convince Chris.
Chris leave the room by complaining to Martena.
「Martena-sama is heartless, the decision that the Divine world is currently given to Alex, with what the Demon do to us what the difference?」
「Chris!? Wait! 」
Running toward the summon Gate, during summoning, you can teleport without much cost Divine power.
―― I have to go!
Go to Hortegram!
I have to see Alex!
It’s not duty.
He is the longest with me within all the Hero,
and because I am in charge of him! ――
「Come forth to me, the gate of the G.o.d」
Because Chris heading to the Hortegram, she call the Gate during the summoning,
At that time, a white hair girl was standing during the summoning, behind the girl was a big green man stood standing with his mouth open.
Chris who looked at then frown her brow.
「The G.o.ddess of Light Escalaine and the Angry Hero Brude」「ブルド」」
「Uu~…
A-!」
Angry Hero Brude speak an unspeakable world, *Dosun Dosun* shake the floor, walk to Chris and grab Her arm.
「Wha-!
What are you doing, Escalaine!」
「I’m going to stop you….from seeing Alex 」
「Are you asked by Martena?」
「No… with my own will」
From time to time, I can’t really read what Escalaine think, in this Divine world she is the one with many mysterious.
However, she is also famous and quite Intelligent, never do anything meaningless. For Chris, if she is cooperator or a non-cooperator she didn’t know, but Chris knew that Escalaine action is definitely with some meaning.
「Why did you stop me?」
「Alex is the Demon Lord…
Persuasion is… Impossible」
「I do not know if I don’t try.. No, its wrong, I have to do it」
「There are no Heroes who protect you anymore, are you being unrealistic?」
Escalaine speak it so light. can’t see undulation of her emotions.
「I have, I Have my Hero Alex, the Golden Hero」
「Rura and Shuto was on the verge of death just because they encounter him, even if it’s you it would be the same, it would be better to persuade him when the heroes restrain him」
「But they must fight him, he would lost trust to us even more」
「What have you seen up to now, did you not see the Demon Lord until now?」
「…..Demon Lord」
Demon Lord.
That’s right.
Alex Vlad is Demon Lord.
No matter how the G.o.ds persuade him, he still Demon Lord.
That will kill the G.o.ddesses no matter what.
In the first place, Demon Lord was impossible to persuade.
Demon keep Fighting.
If persuasion is possible, the fight has ended from long ago.
「Escalaine….
Even so, I have to meet and speak with him, if you restrain him, we will lose his trust forever」
「Chris is an idiot」
「Because he lost his faith that he became Demon Lord」
「I know Brude, take your hand off me」
The Angry Hero, exceeding height 2m 50 cm Brude was called “Buff….” even asked he will not take Chris hand.
Escalaine say.
「If you go you will die, if you go for die, you will killed by Brude」
「Are you really sure you want to go?」
「The G.o.ddess who killed by The Demon Lord, her Divine Power will taken by Demon Lord, even Brude can’t fight someone like that」
By killing the G.o.ddess, the Demon Lord robs the G.o.ddess Divine Power and is able to activate the Divine power.
He can use the “G.o.d Skill”. Then, the Demon Lord Lafire killed 20 G.o.ddess, and evolved into the Great Demon Lord, reigning the Demon World.
The G.o.ddess must not be killed by The Demon Lord. This is absolute, when killed, it gives power to Demon Lord, and unnecessary problem will increase.
Chris was determined even knowing that, so she make such a decision.
「Well then, let me quit as a G.o.ddess」
「Chris, you are really an idiot」
「In this past eight years…
In the past eight years, how I see the Hortegram with biting my finger, you will not understand, no one ever understand.
Alex is, when the s.p.a.ce – Time G.o.ddess Martena summon him here, with this hand I take him to this Divine world, directly with my hands, pull the hand of that little child that was still small」
「It is not your will that you bring him here, we discuss with the G.o.ddesses of the Divine World and more than ten G.o.ddesses are brought together on Agreement」
「So?
So, what?
Should I pretend that I don’t have any relation?
Just because everyone was agreed that it can’t be helped?
Escalaine.
I cannot divide it like that…
When the first time he was coming to Divine world, without crying to go back to his former world, but chewing his trembling lips is engraved in my memory… yes…
So, I tried to serve and be close to Alex, I tried to be his family.
Even after kidnaping him from his parent and want to be his family… It’s like what you say Escalaine, I’m an idiot」
「Chris…」
「Escalaine.. I’m an idiot」
「…. That’s right. you’re an idiot.
You have been disqualified as a G.o.ddess,
and leave your G.o.d name here」
Escalaine stretch her hand and say.
「I will keep your G.o.d name till you come back」
「Yes, please」
「I will tell Martena that the stupid Chris is smarter than we are」
「….. thank you」
Chris give her G.o.d name to Escalaine.
「I, the Steel G.o.ddess Chris will give this G.o.d name to Escalaine, I hope the will of Escalaine’s Steel Justice will remain healthy」
The dull white light that jumped out from her chest was floated in front of Escalaine.
Escalaine picked up the light as to scoop with both hand and put it in her own chest.
「The G.o.ddess of Light Escalaine, I indeed kept the G.o.d name of Steel」
「I’m sorry, but I leave the rest to you, Escalaine」
「How do you meet Alex?」
「Because the Great temples in the north and the west have been destroyed, I think that I will come to the nearest central temple, and waiting there」
「That’s right…
Chris…
Don’t forget to come home…
You will be a liar if you are not return, you will be killed by Brude」
「I’m already dead when I’m coming home, and at the same time, will you dirty your hands?」
「Rice to eat without working is tasty」
「Stop that kind of remark」
Chris who made a promise to return goes through the G.o.d’s gate with a smile.
But Chris never came back again.
The G.o.d name of Steel loses its light, scatter, escapes from Escalaine chest and disappears searching for the next host.
Escalaine holding her chest and mutters.
「Stupid Chris…」
Then she says to her responsible hero.
「Brude」
「Buu…!」
「We will also partic.i.p.ate in Alex subjugation」
「Buuuhaa…!」
