In the blink of an eye, she landed smoothly in front of everyone. "I'm here! Demon Lord Girl Ariel, making a sparkling debut!"
Appearing before them was a small girl with black hair. Her face wore a lively, cheerful smile, yet her eyes held a flippant, cold killing intent!
Upon closer inspection, this was indeed the Demon Lord who had been chasing Elliot: Ariel.
To escape Body Brain, she had undergone a rebirth, changing her form. But even after this transformation, Body Brain's soul remained stubbornly fused with hers.
This infuriated Ariel.
Why is that spider's soul so damn persistent?!
When she transford into a small girl, she imdiately slled Potimas's disgusting scent and followed it straight here.
"Oh, you're here too," the Demon Lord glanced coolly at Elliot, then turned her attention to Potimas. "But I'm sorry, I have no interest in you right now." Her eyes, however, were filled with murderous intent towards Potimas.
"Ariel? What in the world happened to you?" Potimas looked confused, a smirk playing on his lips.
The Demon Lord turning into a little girl? This was a joke of cosmic proportions! And not only that, her personality had changed too. The once cold and ruthless Demon Lord had beco a bit of a goofball.
Hahaha... it was hilarious! Potimas couldn't help but chuckle, but Ariel didn't seem to care.
"Hmph! Does a fake like you have any right to laugh at ? Speaking of which, why are you here?"
"Well, about that... I don't really know why myself..."
"Speak!" The Demon Lord stomped her foot on the ground. Don't be fooled by her small, cute appearance; that stomp caused a small earthquake!
"My business is none of your concern," Potimas had no intention of explaining. Ariel was once his creation, but unexpectedly, she ended up becoming his enemy. And in this world, the person who wanted to kill him most wasn't just anyone; it was this very experintal subject he had personally created!
"Fine. I didn't expect you to confess willingly anyway," the Demon Lord sneered.
Then, she raised her fist and threw a punch. It looked like a very casual attack. But just like that, the previously arrogant Potimas was sent flying, his body shattering.
Circuit boards spilled out from his broken form, the sound of short-circuiting electricity crackling incessantly.
"You're nothing but an experintal subject..." Only Potimas's head, from the neck up, could still move. He turned to look at Ariel, his face contorted with venomous hatred.
"Shut up! One day, I'll make your main body suffer the sa fate!" the Demon Lord retorted without hesitation. She lifted her foot and directly crushed Potimas's chanical head. But Potimas's voice emitter still managed to utter his last words, "...Damn brat..."
Defeating Potimas so easily, and then crushing his head underfoot... Elliot knew very well: this Demon Lord was an even more terrifying existence than Potimas.
And he and Kumoko had already offended her! Facing this Demon Lord, even if he unleashed his divine power, the chances of victory were slim, though not entirely nonexistent.
But Elliot was currently keeping a distance from the Demon Lord. The mont she made a move, he would quickly flee... oh no, strategically retreat.
"Hey, little Earth Dragon over there." Elliot didn't move but turned around. Even though his dragon form was much larger than Demon Lord Ariel's current girl form, Elliot had no doubt that one of her cute little fists could easily shatter any of his defenses.
"As you can see, I've been reborn once," the Demon Lord said nonchalantly, arms crossed. "But unfortunately, even after this rebirth, the soul of that little spider you're with hasn't disappeared from my mind. In fact, it has fused even more tightly with my main soul."
Elliot nodded slightly. After all, Kumoko's soul possessed [Heresy Nullification], making it virtually immortal.
Body Brain's soul was now completely rged with the Demon Lord's; the two were inseparable.
It was like a drop of ink poured into a bucket of water once it spread, it was nearly impossible to extract the ink again. The "rebirth" had only changed the bucket holding the water.
"I think... even if I completely eliminated you and that little spider, it probably wouldn't be possible to erase all traces of her soul. I already have many enemies; two more won't make much difference.
So, I can choose not to hunt you down. However, I hold a grudge. You killed the Queen Taratect. I will rember that forever," the Demon Lord said with a serious expression.
"Of course, if you want to eliminate my hostility, it's very simple. Co to the capital of the Sariella Kingdom. I'll be waiting for you there." After saying this, she indeed showed no intention of attacking Elliot.
Firstly, if she even thought about attacking, Elliot would imdiately take to the skies, and she wouldn't be able to reach him.
Secondly, realizing Kumoko's soul couldn't be completely eradicated, Ariel had sowhat resigned herself to the situation.
After that annoying little spider's soul fused with her own consciousness, because she now possessed so of Kumoko's mories and personality traits, it beca very difficult for her to truly hate Elliot and Kumoko.
In fact, a strange, inexplicable feeling had even begun to surface in her heart. This feeling made her very uncomfortable because it didn't feel like her own.
It was like a human who received a ghoul's heart suddenly finding human flesh delicious.
But regardless, this consciousness was now a permanent part of her mind. She could no longer bring herself to attack Elliot and Kumoko.
Elliot nodded, agreeing. A truce with the Demon Lord was a good thing.
After all, being an ally with a violent one who could stomp Potimas flat was, by any asure, far better than having an enemy made of steel and muscle with an evil disposition.
Yes, even gods appreciate good looks... or at least, less trouble.
….
The giant dragon soared above the clouds. ra, holding Sophia, sat on Elliot's back, looking down at the thick cloud layer below, feeling a little terrified.
He had no idea where this dragon was taking them. The dragon offered no explanation either, just kept flying. Since this being had saved him and the young miss, he probably ant them no harm.
However, ra could sense that this dragon was rather disdainful of him. If he wasn't holding Sophia, the dragon would probably have just tossed him off from this high altitude.
Recalling everything that had happened, ra felt like he was in a dream. From the outbreak of war, to Flabright City being breached, to the death of the Lord and Lady, and finally, the Demon Lord, the Elf King, and this Dragon King before him the top figures of this world, all gathered in a small lord's castle, practically playing mahjong.
The more ra thought about it, the more unbelievable it seed. He could vaguely guess so things: his young mistress, Sophia, as the True Ancestor of vampires, the first vampire in this world, was incredibly significant.
That Elf King had even said that if the young miss were allowed to grow, she would likely beco one of this world's major powers.
Perhaps that was why these world-class figures had gathered here to fight over the young miss's power! ra thought. He held Sophia a little tighter, becoming more vigilant.
But what ra didn't know was that Sophia, whom he held in his arms, was not only the Vampire True Ancestor but also a reincarnator.
"We're here." Elliot unceremoniously dropped ra and Sophia from the sky. The high-speed descent made ra think he was about to die.
But Elliot, descending even faster, transford mid-air and caught the master and servant just before they hit the ground, then casually tossed them onto the earth.
Throughout it all, ra had clung tightly to the young miss, never once letting go.
"Such a loyal servant," Elliot shook his head. Then, he spoke to Sophia in ra's arms, "Like you, I am also a reincarnator. Hello, Negishi Shouko."
ra's eyes widened. Negishi Shouko? He had never heard that na before.
Just then, the young miss in his arms reacted. She looked at Elliot with an icy glare. ra's jaw dropped. He never would have imagined that his young miss was soone reincarnated from another world!
Sophia's reaction wasn't surprising. In her past life, she had been ek and weak, subjected to everyone's ridicule and abuse.
In any class, there are pretty girls and ugly girls; that's normal. And she was one of the ugly ones. In Japan, girls who were too ugly or too beautiful were often ostracized.
Those who were too beautiful attracted too much male attention, becoming a focal point wherever they went, threatening other girls with their looks, naturally leading to rejection.
Boys, if they couldn't have her, would often want to destroy her. Rumors and slander could instantly drown the prettiest girl in class. Wakaba Hiiro was like that.
As for being ugly? That was even easier to explain. Everyone could bully you without any restraint, and there were no consequences.
Especially since Negishi Shouko had a very timid personality and didn't dare to fight back against her torntors.
Because of this, Sophia was extrely sensitive about her forr na. She absolutely didn't want to hear it spoken by anyone else.
That was her dark past; she was ashad of it! Now, she was Sophia Keren!
The Vampire True Ancestor of this world! Whether in terms of looks or growth potential, she was a one-in-a-million existence! She didn't want anyone to ntion her old na again.
But the current Sophia didn't have the [Telepathy] ability yet, so she could only babble/gurgle in protest!
"My na is Elliot. As you can see, I was reincarnated as an Earth Dragon," Elliot said with a smile. "Of course, I'm not the only one reincarnated as a dragon. There's also a girl nad Mirei Shinohara. You should have heard of her, right?"
Mirei Shinohara!
