Chapter 989 – Afterword ─ Please Take Care of the Demon God!
“If you were joking, tell me you were joking right now.”
Venus spoke somewhat seriously, but the expression of Eve Terra, who was sitting in front of her, did not change at all.
“Would I joke about such an important matter? Unfortunately, contrary to VIP’s wishes, it is true.”
“No matter how much you say it… Isn’t it true? Al?!”
Venus pointed with her finger to the egg that Eve had said was ‘the demon’s first childhood.’
“To be honest, if you hadn’t heard Eve’s explanation, it’s so small that you would think it was just an ordinary egg.”
“That’s exactly what I said! Isn’t this egg a very, very ordinary egg no matter how you look at it? Is it really the demon god’s first childhood?”
Venus and Hedone’s eyes were not wrong, nor were their images distorted.
In their eyes, the egg in front of them was clearly an egg, nothing more or less than that.
What was a little special about it was that it was very white, and the shape was not elongated but rather like a complete sphere, but in the end it looked like an egg.
“I’m speaking from the heart. This is the Demon God’s first childhood.”
“Tell me what Ceres said.”
Ceres shook his head from side to side sadly.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know much about demons.”
“Such…”
“It can’t be helped. I am the only one in Pandemonium and Nectar who has seriously studied demon gods and met demon gods.”
Eve spoke as if she were boasting, slightly pushing her chest forward, and Venus finally looked like she had given up.
“Okay… Then I guess we have to admit that this pure white egg is a demon god.”
“Well, if you really played a prank on us with the eggs, you can scold us later.”
Eve burst into laughter at Hedone’s words.
“It will never happen, but what kind of punishment do you plan on giving me?”
“Since you played with eggs… That’s right. I’m going to put eggs in Ms. Eve’s pussy.”
“Pfft… I don’t know if that will be punishment, but unfortunately, I don’t think I will ever be punished like that.”
Eve shrugged her shoulders, and Venus, seeing her say this, sighed and rested her chin.
“In the end… I came to admit that this pure white egg was really the Demon God’s childhood…”
“It doesn’t end with just admitting it, does it?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Since it is clearly the first childhood, there must be something… Something we have to do, right?”
Venus naturally looked at Eve and spoke.
Of course, Eve also waited for Venus to say that, so she nodded while sipping the coffee Ceres had given her.
“As Mr. VIP thinks, since this is the Demon God’s first childhood, there is quite a lot we need to do.”
“I would like to tell you in advance that I have no intention of exploiting the wishes of the people of the empire where the sun never sets using devices made by demons.”
“I didn’t even think about it that far. Wouldn’t it be obvious what would happen if you resurrect the Demon God in such a twisted way in the first place?”
Eve put down the cup containing coffee and made eye contact with Venus.
“Please raise the Demon God as normally as possible.”
“I want you to raise me…”
“The Armonia I drank so far was someone’s… Well, I’ll be honest with you. Me and my past self… Honestly, I gave some pretty bad wishes as food with the intention of taking advantage of the Demon God.”
Eve’s expression was serious.
“The devil…”
Venus remembered something and crossed his arms and gently closed his eyes.
“Yes… The demon god was clearly just a wish-granting god.”
“That’s correct. I think he is fundamentally a very kind god. Well, I don’t know if he may have a bit of a mischievous personality.”
“The important thing is that the wishes accepted were very violent and bad.”
Hedone gently lifted the demon’s egg with his gloveless hand.
“Even though it has the appearance of an egg… When I listen to Eve’s story, I think that in the end, it’s not much different from raising a child.”
“As expected, you have good understanding.”
“Children learn a lot from their parents’ actions, and they also learn a lot from the place where they are born and raised, right? I think it’s the same. If you teach the Demon God Armonia the right environment, normal knowledge, and common sense, it will become a Demon God who only wants to destroy this world. Wouldn’t it be possible to escape fate?”
Venus very slowly opened her eyes and nodded.
“It seems like the demon Armonia certainly wants that kind of future.”
“Oh my, do you have any basis for this?”
In response to Eve’s question, Venus smiled and tapped her chest with her finger.
“It is His Majesty’s persimmon.”
Hehe… Normally, I would say this is an unscientific story, but Mr. VIP is omniscient and omnipotent and has even become the only god. In that regard, I think there is something I cannot help but know.”
Venus smiled cheerfully and looked at the egg placed on the palm of her hand along with Hedone.
The tiny, pure white egg didn’t emit light or roll around, but it felt a very slight warmth.
This warmth, which may be said to be insignificant, was proof that there was life in the egg, and gave me hope that I could make the smallest spark burn bigger.
“But… What should I do with this egg from now on?”
“Now that I think about it, I see. Didn’t Hedone make a joke earlier about putting an egg in her vagina? It’s not like she has to carry an egg around like that, right?”
At Venus’s words, Eve blinked her eyes once and then covered her mouth with her right hand and laughed.
“Oh my… Wow… There… What…”
“Woah, don’t laugh! After all, don’t you know?!”
“Ah, no matter what, huh… Huh, huh…”
Eve was shaking her shoulders and laughing, making Venus’ face turn red with embarrassment.
“No way… I have to hold it in my heart like a bird, right?”
Hedone carefully brought her egg to her chest.
“Oh, my God… Ugh… Hehe… Haha, you two are calling me now…”
“No, it’s not a joke. There’s no way we could know what to do with the Demon God’s egg, right?”
Hedone and Venus looked at Eve urgently. In the end, after laughing for nearly five minutes, Eve wiped away her tears with her hands and let out a deep breath.
“Hehe… Hehe… I’ll be serious.”
“Don’t laugh too much.”
“There is absolutely no need to keep them warm by holding them in the chest or putting them in the genitals. When I tested those eggs, they stayed warm even when placed in the freezer.”
Hedone naturally pulled the egg in his palm toward his body.
“No matter what, isn’t the freezer too big?”
“At that time, it was something I had no choice but to do for the sake of an experiment. In fact, it was a time when there was no exact certainty that it was a demon egg.”
“I think I might know a little about why the Demon God has such a twisted personality.”
Ceres, who was standing behind Venus’ joke, faintly raised an eyebrow.
“Anyway… There’s really nothing special you can do for that egg.”
“You’re talking as if there’s no problem with putting it on the desk?”
“Of course. It’s the devil’s egg. Even if you try to break it, it doesn’t break and always stays intact. It gets a little bigger as time goes by, but that’s all.”
“I guess it’s not the Demon God’s first childhood for nothing.”
Hedone looked at her egg preciously, placing it in her palm.
“Then there’s nothing special for us to do?”
Eve blinked briefly at Venus’ words.
‘Mr. VIP is thinking of taking responsibility for Armonia’s childhood, which he drank very naturally.’
If you think about it, as soon as Venus found out that it was the devil’s egg, she didn’t say anything about crushing it or sealing it.
‘… You’re even thinking about hatching it healthy.’
Swallowing her saliva, Eve sipped her coffee without speaking for a moment to think.
“Is there nothing special we need to do?”
“Oh, I was just thinking for a moment. You don’t have to do anything very special.”
Eve snapped her fingers as she spoke.
“Special things referred to here include human sacrifice for the demon god, offering enormous amounts of gold and silver treasure as a sacrifice, or preparing a huge amount of food that one cannot eat all by oneself.”
“Well, you’re literally talking about offering up a sacrifice to an evil spirit?”
“An egg is an egg. Please recognize that clearly. However, there is no need to carry it around warmly.”
“Then how about dusting, wiping, or saying nice things?”
At Hedoneh’s words, Eve twitched her fingers slightly.
“That’s… It’s like prenatal education.”
“This egg is ultimately the Demon God’s first childhood, right? I think you’re hearing everything we’re talking about right now.”
“It’s not a wrong idea. That’s why injecting wishes was meaningful.”
“I think it’s okay to just save it on a regular basis. What do you think? Is that okay?”
As soon as he heard Hedone’s words, Venus snapped his fingers.
“I guess it would be okay to put it on a soft cushion and protect it with a glass tube. Wouldn’t it be okay to read a book until the egg hatches properly?”
“Ah… That’s good! Your Majesty. If I read a lot of children’s favorite fairy tales, wouldn’t I become a pretty upright god?”
Eve looked at the couple with an indescribable expression as they talked as if they were really raising a child.
“The two of you are so… I think of actions that I would be too embarrassed to do, as if they were natural.”
“Shouldn’t we give demons a chance too?”
“That’s right. We can create an environment where one can be born properly and become a proper god.”
Eve eventually nodded her head at the couple’s courageous words.
“Good. Rather than being taken to Pandemonium, it would be better for you to spend your childhood on a land full of hope. Instead, if you encounter any unimaginable problems, please contact me. I may have already experienced it.”
With a smile, Eve decided to entrust Venus and Hedone with a task she had not originally planned.
‘With the two of you, we can truly make a proper demon god be born on this earth. It would be nice to have pure expectations.’
