Chapter 7 : Trouble [Incoming] (4)

I've had it now haven't I?

Screaming at the demon lord is not the best thing I did, but with that shit eating grin, I think I've had. Provoking people with JOJO? fuckin hell I wouldn't be that evil.

"No. There's no problem with him. He just needs... adjustments, yes?"

"Thank you anyhow Maou-sama."

He just raised his hands.

"No need for that. the family must stick together, do they not?"

"... Family huh... you young ones sure got a way with words..."

"It's just your generation that likes to communicate with their fists more than Rodin."

TRUE! THAT'S SO TRUE! YOU TELL THEM SENPAI!

"If that's all I shall excuse myself first. But... Feel free to contact me when you're free... Liam."

"Of course."

"I hope you guys enjoy the party, and I'm sorry, my little girl's out with Nobi... So things will get a bit... late... if you don't mind..."

"Of course we don't mind! Hell even if there's a bomb here we'll wait for the big G to get come back."

"Funny how you mention a bomb..."

"Because there is!"

"Figures... mundane or..."

"Mundane."

"Ah... No wonder I didn't detect anything. thanks for the heads up."

"No problem... any special commands?"

"Nothing. Just let me know where I need to snap some necks. They seem to forget that a demon lord's still a demon lord even though he settled down."

"Mind if I tag along?"

"The more the merrier Rodin."

and then THEY DISAPPEARED!?!? NO.. THEY MOVED SO FAST THAT THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY A MESS!

The waiters came and tidied up... by tidy up I meant they were wounded time... neat...

"*sigh*... Boys..."

It seems that Jeanne sounds her complaint.

"Yeah... Even though he stole my heart, he could've asked me if I wanted to hunt. A bit of maneuvering every now and then is always welcome."

"Speaking of hunts, you could join us with ours!"

"Yes. We must have our own personal outing. killing angels is a joy... their blood tastes like honey."

suddenly the angels started sweating and stuttering

"No. not you cuties, she meant those paradiso bastards..."

the angels stopped shaking... and then quickly scrambled to each their own direction. Nice save mother Cereza. and then they started talking about parenthood, Maria talked about being an adoptive mother and whatnot. It seems that Cereza is taking notes.

After a few moments, a blue spatial tear grows wide in the middle of the stage... and out comes the nahabino... wait... didn't I see the nahabino sitting there when I came in?

===

The party started when Alice came back. She's wearing a blue dress, she has a pale complexion, and blonde short hair... precisely like the alice I knew....

Not long afterward, Maou-sama and Rodin came back.

"Papa!"

the girl ran towards Maou... and gave him a hug...

"You went killing without me!"

... Yep Dysfunctional family.

"What did Papa say about killing?"

"Only if no one's watching... or I can kill everyone..."

OI oi oi what are you thinking about when you teach your kid that?

"Good. now run along and greet your mothers... Grandma is on her way here with your cake."

"Yes Papa."

"Taking her to see the solar system huh Nobi? that's a gift I cannot one up."

Nobi nods proudly.

"Of-course, without a proper way of breathing and traveling, one cannot traverse space Maou-sama."

and is that... protofiend? Why are you here? and are you translating for that nahabino?

"So tell me how you did it?"

"Oh that's simple, we jump from Tokyo tower, and then open up a portal during our terminal velocity."

... that's one way to do it...

"And that's enough to fly through the universe?"

"No, we did use a bit of mana to move about and accelerate."

"... fine... you win Nobi."

===

and so the birthday girl went around and greeted everyone. when she arrived at my table though.

"Aunt Cereza, Aunt Jeanne, Please bring me hunting with you! classes are so boring..."

"Well of course dear."

"Yay! hear that Liam! I'll go hunting!"

"Of course Alice."

"HEIEIE!?!? YOU CAN TALK!? EHHHH!"

she suddenly grabbed my shirt and shook me hard!

"Alice, please behave yourself... treat this as a formal party."

"But! Mother Maria! Isn't it shocking!?"

"A lady must be calm no matter the circumstance. only then --"

"Only then can you find a perfect opportunity to strike. I get it mother!"

And then immediately, she let me go. My world is spinning... help...

"But mother, since when does he... get cured?"

"You should ask that to Aunt Jeanne."

I sat down as I stared at the ceiling.

"Aunt Jeanne! How can you not tell me? I mean I practically told all my secrets to him! what if he blurts it all out!"

"Don't worry sweetie he won't say a thing."

I don't even remember meeting you.

"Promise?"

She looked at me expectantly.

"Promise."

"Yay! come with me, we better greet the rest!"

she immediately dragged me off... and now I've been introduced to everyone. I'll say it's quite nice being introduced to the characters that you grew up with... like Kazuma kiryu... and the investigation team of persona 4... and then there's also Nanko and Haruka; they're precious.

But then there's also some... more scary tables... like the tables of old men and women... they're the heads of clans of the old... It seems that they're the in-laws of Maou-sama.

and then there's also ... them... those deities... Khonshu is a cool dude... well he's green... and then there's shiva, who's all blue... and then Zeus... I don't know what he's supposed to be... but he's half and half.

Yeah it seems that they're the Nahobino's underlings... after getting repeatedly beaten up. go figure. Although with everyone here there's one that's missing... the demi fiend... but i'm also glad he's not here... wait.. I just made a flag didn't I?

===

After a while we're finally done with greeting everyone... AND I WAS ASKED TO SIT WITH HER FAMILY!

"So, Liam. which school did you go to?"

"Shujin."

"Oh, has it started yet?"

"Not yet."

"Which grade are you?"

"2nd Grade..."

"... So you're going to be his senior?"

"Yup..."

"Any plans?"

"Yup. Not getting involved at all."

"Good plan. good luck on plan B."

!?!? DID YOU JUST... JINX ME?

"Oh and one other thing... this world... is not as what we had experienced before... they're real living people... there are... consequences..."

"... consequences huh..."

"How did you live with it?"

"Oh me? I've made up my mind when I killed my first 40 humans... It's my proposal--"

wait wait wait... Did you just kill 40 people, get soaked in their blood, and then propose to your god girlfriend...? That's so Metal.

"... Nice."

That's all I can say...

"Papa! Papa!"

"Yes, dear?"

"I wanna go to school!"

"No."

NO HESITATION!

"but... but..."

Is that PUPPY EYES!? UGH.... Even I'm moved.

"... No."

"UWAAA!!!!"

and Alice cried...

"Dear."

"Yes?"

"Why not?"

"Killing off a whole school is the least of my worries if she goes to school."

"... true, then what worries you?"

"The horny boys."

"..."

WTF!?

"Dear."

"Yeah?"

"Either you let her go to Shujin, or you'll sleep alone starting today."

"..."

"..."

"... Fine. BUT!"

A hand landed on my shoulder.

"You. Keep her out of trouble."

"I reject."

I tried to get up and run away!

"I reject your rejection."

A shadow appears behind me as I somehow find myself back in my seat. And so, that's how you got to be a babysitter.

Going home...
