I woke up violently. When I raised my body I found myself back in bed. I examine myself closely to make sure nothing happened to me. The fatigue I felt in that dream like vision was gone. Technically I was ok. But I know that what I saw was real.

But even if it was real, I don't regret my actions. I got the revenge I wanted. But for the cycle to be complete, I needed to totally crumble the fake society those 3 established. It will take time. But if you are telling me that you plan to take the country and throne that I worked so hard for, of course I won't stay silent.

Regardless, for now I guess it's best if I talked to Zeshia. And if I'm at it, I might ask Rosalie too. She gave me permission to freely teleport in and out of Edenweld forest. So I guess talking to both of them would be the smartest move.

------

"Impossible! I'm a Goddess. For me to suffer such a defeat in front of a mortal… I can't believe this."

"Aren't you overreacting a bit?"

It's not what you think. Me and Rosalie did have a match, but… it was a gaming match. The moment I popped up she insisted we played a fighter type game. Needless to say my skills were superior and I mopped the floor with Rosalie. It was fun, but that's not what I'm here for.

"Anyway, can you gather yourself a bit? I played your game. How about helping me with my problem?"

Rosalie got up, composed herself and took a sip from her pipe.

"So, Delta is the one that's causing all this. I had a feeling it was her, but I was never sure. Listen, Yurishia, it's a good thing you turned her down. Her story version is twisted. She herself was twisted.

It's true that the Gods abandoned her world, but only because it was a violent one. The lifespan of the average mortal was barely 30. Wars after wars, violence and bloodshed were the true factors that led to that worlds' destruction."

Honestly, just because Rosalie's story is different, doesn't mean I trust it completely too. Gods should be beings that don't lie. Actually, the only Goddess I would believe would be Ariadne. Only because she's a complete idiot and isn't smart enough to lie.

"Delta was once different, but she changed drastically. Even back when I was the Goddess of Destruction she tried to approach me and ask for my help. But since her ideals didn't align with mine, I rejected her. But I was banished before her, so I can't confirm her story. She was a good person when I knew her, hence that's probably why she told you to ask me about her. But she didn't take your cautious nature into account."

Zeshia was right. Ever since my betrayal I tend to be strict with pretty much anything.

"Hey Rosalie, since I might be facing a God at some point, can't you grant me the divinity skill?"

"Sorry. I told you last time, but I won't do it."

"Then what can I do? She kicked my ass real hard in my dream."

"First, because it was a dream, it didn't reflect your true value. But, I will admit, Delta is strong. You probably can't even beat me, so I understand your concern. But making you a demi-goddess is still a big no. Think of it from my point of view.

If I do make you one and later you suddenly decide to change your mind and side with Delta… severe punishment will be bestowed on me because of what I did. I caused even more problems, so the Gods might ask for my head. Even if the chances of you siding with Delta are only 0.00001%, I simply can't take that chance."

"Okay. I get what you mean. I'd probably do the same in your shoes. But what can I do. I feel like physical training with Leona and mana control with Lumi-chan won't be enough."

"Don't worry. No matter what, a God can't directly kill a mortal. It's a rule engraved in our souls. We can't break it no matter what. So she can't make a move on you herself. Also, if you need a power boost to stand toe to toe with a God, then use Zeshia. In her staff form she can multiple your magic attacks 7-fold."

"Wait wait wait!! Back up a bit. Staff form?"

I turned towards Zeshia with an evil grin. If I didn't know better, I could have sworn that the sword was sweating. I grabbed Zeshia violently and started waving her around.

"Hey!! Stop. You're choking me! And I'm getting dizzy like this!"

"You're lucky that's the only thing I'm doing to you!! Staff form? Why didn't you tell about this before!?"

"You didn't ask. Neither you or the former Maou never tried asking. You both assumed that I was a sword. But I'm a staff-sword. I can also channel magic."

"One of these days I might put you in my storage and forget about you for a few years."

"Nooo! I'm sorry!! I'm sorry! I promise not to keep secrets from you again. Please, just don't put me back in the storage!"

For some reason, despite being affiliated with the demons and a former Goddess, Zeshia is still scared of the dark. I sometimes tease her, but right now threatening her with it was a fitting punishment. I guess it's time for a little shape shifting show.

Demi-humans. Part human part animal. Unlike the humans or the Mazoku, they didn't involve themselves with the great war. They mostly tend to themselves, and the strongest one have a great pride. They would rather die than ask for help.

The demi-humans are divided into 5 major tribes. You can think of them as small counties. Even with this division, they were ruled by one individual. The strongest amongst all the demi-humans. The Beast Emperor Regulus Rex. A tall, muscular man with a stern lion-like face, lion ears, tail, and sports a majestic mane that is reddish brown in color with eyes of the same color.

He is a charismatic leader who leads his troops with pride and increases their morale. He is often described as a muscle-head and battle-junkie, and sometimes he doesn't deny it either. He is also self-admittedly stubborn, never giving up in something once he takes in interest in it. And his physical power knows no boundaries. He is one level above Yurishia's mentor, Leona.

Before this majestic ruler, a lizardman was bowing and giving his report.

"Is it true?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Our spies have found her. The 2nd princess that has gone missing. Your adopted daughter, Princess Yarina, the minotaur has been enslaved by the new Maou."

"Tsk. I can't forgive such an act. But if I recall, not all the Mazoku have accepted this new Maou. Hmm…"

The Beast Emperor pondered for a while.

"Very well. We can avoid war. Send in the Alfa squad. Assassinate the Maou so that the slave contract will be undone. Bring my daughter back, no matter what!"

"Your wish is my command!"

"Anyone who messes with me will inevitably… be crushed."
