Chapter 235 Resurrecting the Demon King
"That scumbag, Kuya, she's too scared to take responsibility."
Following Darkness, Megumin also stepped forward and spat on the ground.
"Master Aqua, if you really are a goddess, and the story of that lonely hero is true, then you are truly in the wrong."
Youyou also stepped forward and said something.
"Miss Aqua..."
When it was Wiz's turn, Aqua's eyes were already brimming with tears as she glared at her: "Even you, a lich, are going to criticize me?"
"Sigh~"
Wiz sighed, shook his head, and said nothing, but the respect he once held for Aqua's status as a goddess was gone from his eyes.
"Broly~"
Aqua pursed her lips and looked at the boy. Broly comforted her, "It's not a big deal. Even if Master Aqua is wrong, it's not Master Aqua's fault, it's the world's fault."
Broly's biased attitude made Aqua feel much better. Even though everyone else looked down on her, her beloved disciple was still willing to stand by her side.
"Alright, Master Aqua, I'm going to collect that old demon king's corpse~"
After comforting Aqua, Broly walked towards the old Demon King's corpse. Although the old Demon King had attacked Aqua without permission, Broly could understand his actions and wasn't particularly angry.
Of course, the reason I'm not angry is because Aqua is fine, and it's the other person who's lying dead on the ground.
May your resentment be soothed.
Broly casually dug a hole and then used the funeral rites taught by Axis to perform a pre-burial ritual for the old demon king.
The demon girl's face was contorted with pain as she looked at her dead father. But when she looked up at Broly, her eyes were filled with hatred.
The same was true for the other members of the Demon King's army who were still conscious. To them, the old Demon King was not just a dignified leader, but also an elder who cared for them.
The death of the old demon king fueled hatred in the hearts of these demon king's army members.
Broly also sensed these hateful gazes.
He met the hateful gaze of the Demon King's daughter and the angry stares of the Demon King's army members.
Broly frowned, thought for a moment, and then slowly raised his hand.
If he were alone, he might not care about the hatred of these individuals, but since he would be leaving this world later, eliminating these hostile individuals would be a simple choice in order to avoid bringing any additional risks to his wife.
The few moral concepts that have already formed will not affect the choices Broly will make after simple consideration.
Even if the root of the problem might be Aqua's fault, so what? Broly will not only not blame Aqua, who is both his wife and his mentor, but will even help Aqua clean up the mess.
However, as the party in the wrong, Broly would ensure that the deaths of these demon kings would not be too painful.
Just as Broly was preparing to deliver the energy blasts that would end the lives of the Demon King's army, Aqua was first subjected to contemptuous looks and condemnatory words from Darkness and Megumin beside her.
"Look, even Broly is more sensible than you. How can you be considered a good teacher? From now on, I think you should stay away from Broly to prevent him from being led astray by you."
Darkness's words were sharp, but the wives around her nodded in agreement.
"Ugh, you all say that about me?! I... I... Fine, I'll just resurrect that guy!"
Resurrection!
A dazzling light was thrown directly at the dead Demon King by Aqua. The goddess's power appeared before the power of destruction, and the Demon King, who was in a charred state, recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Kyoichi Yasaka opened his eyes in confusion, looked at the sky above, and subconsciously asked, "Is there a blue sky in the afterlife?"
Broly lowered his hand, and the demon girl's gaze changed from hatred to joy. After some explanation, the old demon king finally understood who had resurrected him.
"In this way, the grudges between me and your clan will be settled."
Aqua, hands on her hips, said that she was prepared to use the grace of resurrection to offset the resentment of the Demon King's clan.
The Old Demon King: "..."
To be honest, he didn't hate the goddess Aqua that much, after all, he wasn't the hero ancestor from back then.
The reason he attacked Aqua was simply because he was old and didn't have much time left to live.
Rather than dying somewhere in the future, I'd rather challenge a god-like being, launch a retaliatory attack on behalf of my ancestors, and then die a spectacular death.
His death was indeed as spectacular as he had predicted, but after being resurrected and seeing his daughter crying joyfully on his body, the old demon king regretted his impulsiveness.
Fortunately, all of this was saved by a resurrection spell: "Alright, Lady Aqua, our feud is over."
The Demon King agreed to Aqua's proposal.
"On the other hand, is the story of the so-called lone hero really true? No one can verify such a thing, right?"
After receiving the agreement to reconcile, Aqua started muttering to herself, questioning the authenticity of the story of the Lone Hero. Clearly, she didn't want to admit that it was her own dereliction of duty as a goddess that caused this outcome.
"If Mr. Barnier were here, that would be great. He should know that hero demon king from three hundred years ago."
Wiz said.
And as the saying goes, "Speak of Cao Cao and he shall appear."
Some clay swelled up on the ground, and Barnier, wearing a black and white mask, made a dazzling appearance.
"Indeed, we know that lonely boy. Although he eventually married the beautiful Demon King's daughter and his life wasn't too miserable, there is a fact that he was forgotten in this world by some irresponsible goddess."
Barnier said, pointing at Aqua, "That's right, I'm talking about a certain irresponsible goddess, you're the one!"
"You despicable demon, what evidence do you have to say that? Even if you know the other person, the words of a demon are completely unreliable!"
Aqua immediately denied it.
"Hmph, I knew you, you unscrupulous goddess, would say that. So, after predicting the fate of the Demon King's army's defeat, I specially returned to Hell and used the memory stone to bring back some memories of my time with that lonely boy from my original body."
Banir took out the memory stone and activated it with magic, playing the recorded memories. These memories were of the lone hero who had successfully defeated the Demon King in the past, facing the scene of being unable to return and question the goddess, but no one responded to him at all.
Even at the moment of death, the other party still wants to know the answer.
"Ahhh..."
Aqua yelled and went to snatch the evidence of the dark history, while Barnier just laughed without caring at all.
"We can have as many of these things as we want. And afterwards, we must take this truth buried in history, the dark history of the water goddess Aqua, to the headquarters of the Axis Cult, to Acanletia, and play it for your followers, so that their faith in you will crumble."
Barnier dodged Aqua's attacks, but uttered some truly demonic words.
"Broly, please, help me kill that demon! I don't want to be abandoned by my followers!"
Aqua started crying again and turned to Broly for help.
"Mr. Barnier, let's make a deal. I want what you have about my master."
Broly looked at Barnier and spoke to the great demon.
"What price are you willing to pay? Things like a goddess's embarrassing past are very expensive."
Barnier played with the photographic stone in his hand and asked with a smile.
"My anger."
"At least ten portions."
"make a deal!"
And so, Broly and Barnier reached a deal.
The Demon King's army and Princess Alice, among others, were all somewhat dumbfounded.
"Where am I...?"
As time passed, the unconscious soldiers of the Demon King's army gradually awoke.
Upon waking up, they immediately learned that the Demon King's army was to be disbanded.
"The Demon King's army has been disbanded! How can this be?"
Some soldiers were unwilling to accept the outcome, but after learning that the old demon king had also died once, they were speechless in the face of the Saiyan boy who had easily defeated them.
If you don't want to disband, you have to die; there's no third option.
"My Lord Demon King, I wish to follow you, even if only as your servant."
Some of the Demon King's soldiers, feeling confused, expressed their opinions on this matter.
"I am no longer the Demon King; you should all pursue your own lives."
The old demon king waved his hand, directly refusing these followers. He had spent most of his early life managing the demon army and ruling the demon race.
Having died once and been reborn, the old demon king now only wants to take his daughter to experience a life different from that of the demon king.
The world is vast, and Yasaka Kyoichi has long wanted to see it, but he was previously bound to the Demon King's Castle by his identity as the Demon King.
But now, the Demon King's army has been defeated, and he no longer holds the title of Demon King. He can finally do what he wants.
However, before relinquishing his identity as the Demon King, there are some things he must explain to his subordinates: "After the Demon King's army is disbanded, humans will definitely try to exterminate us. In the days to come, you should try to hide in places where humans can't find you."
This was the last thing he had to do. The Demon King's army officers were fine; even without the Demon King's army, the officers themselves were strong enough that they weren't afraid of being hunted down by humans. But the other demons were different; they had to hide before humans could react.
The chimera Sylvia led the goblin band away, preparing to hide in the dangerous ruins, while the headless knight Beldia, with his undead band, planned to return to the dark dungeon filled with the dead...
The fallen angel lamented the loss of his former home, but was stopped by Aqua as he was about to leave. Aqua inquired about the reason for his fall.
The answer was that this fallen angel, a cadre of the Demon King's army, couldn't stand the 007 work environment in Heaven where there were no holidays all year round. So, after the Demon King appeared in this world, he took on a mission to descend to the mortal realm, not to solve the Demon King's problem, but to escape the life of a corporate slave in Heaven.
In response, Aqua felt a strange sense of empathy for this fallen angel, thinking that after solving the Demon King problem of this world, she would have to return to the Heavenly Realm and start a life of endless work.
"Come on, as a goddess, you can still dump your work on us angels, while we angels are the ones who truly have no holidays."
However, the fallen angels scoffed at Aqua's empathy, believing that Aqua, as a goddess, was completely incapable of understanding the situation of them angels.
The two got into an argument, which quickly escalated to the point where Aqua, feeling somewhat embarrassed and angry, threw a Holy Purification spell directly at the fallen angel's head.
"No, I don't want to go back to Heaven, I don't want to work year-round without a break!"
After the fallen angel's wings were purified and turned white, the rules of the celestial realm sensed His presence in the lower realm and directly opened the gates of the celestial realm to pull Him back.
Before leaving, the angel's struggle and despair were so real that it made viewers think he was going to hell rather than returning to heaven.
Is the Celestial Realm really that terrifying?
Wiz asked the question.
Upon hearing this, Aqua didn't know how to respond.
For her, the celestial realm was alright.
Although it's not as exciting as the mortal world, staying in the celestial realm as a goddess allows her divine power to continuously increase.
"Wait, why haven't I received the call from Heaven yet?"
Aqua suddenly realized something and looked puzzled.
"Could it be that the girl who brought me here wants to replace me?"
Aqua, who understood conspiracy theories, quickly came up with a possibility.
"Isn't this great? The Celestial Realm doesn't sound like a good place either. This way, you can stay in this world."
Darkness said.
"That's terrible! If an angel usurps my divine position, my divine power will gradually disappear. Once it disappears, I'll become a mortal again, and I might not even have my current strength anymore. Without my current strength, I'll be a useless person. Waaah, I don't want to be a useless person!"
Aqua burst into tears, her awareness of her loss of divine power crystal clear.
"It's okay, Aqua, I'll take care of you!"
Megumin patted Aqua on the shoulder and said something that surprised Aqua.
"Huihui, I never expected you to be such a good person."
Just as Aqua was beginning to feel touched, Megumin revealed a malicious smile.
"Of course, but I'll definitely call you Parasite Aya then."
She revealed her true intentions, showing that this genius girl from the Crimson Demon Clan was not shrewd at all.
Aqua: "..."
He looked at Broly: "Broly, you won't let this happen, will you?"
Aqua realized that, at this moment, it seemed that Broly was the only person she could rely on.
"Master Aqua, I will be returning to my own world in two days."
Broly scratched his head, but then said something that made Aqua feel desperate.
"Hey, Broly, where are you planning to go?"
"Youyou asked curiously."
"Go home."
Broly answered.
"But isn't our home in Axel?"
"I'm talking about Wanpaxing's home."
Youyou remained silent for a moment, then her eyes widened: "So, what you said in the village about coming from Planet Wanpa was all true!?"
