<h4>Chapter 272: Intimidating the protagonist''s father</h4>


    "I became a Demon Lord?"


    Eiji knew the reason, he wasn''t surprised, but still ― he was curious if Ramusas was really willing to nominate himself as the new Demon Lord of the Moderate Faction?


    Ramusas thought Eiji and the others were confused, after all unlike Mio who was Wilbert''s daughter and the heir to the Moderate Faction from the start. Eiji was his future son-inw who hadn''t even married his daughter yet, nor was he a native of Demon Realm.


    Even so.


    "That''s what the Demons who have seen your power and were saved by you, Eiji, are saying. One of them and shouting the loudest are the women in the garden belonging to Belphegor and the Demon Council, the number of women stored in that ce actually reaches 5% of the female poption in Demon Realm."


    The girls in the room had a look of disgust when they heard this. This meant that the old men in the Demon Council were stallions in lust regardless of their age. No need to ask, they knew those women must not have done it voluntarily, they must have been forced by those old men.


    They could not help but remember Belphegor who was said to have two penises. Just thinking about it, Mio and the others got goosebumps. Of course, they were happy that those women were now free after the Demon Council was destroyed and the one who did it was Eiji.


    As expected of Eiji!


    [Huh? I thought it was only because I had repaired the city and the people who died in the Chaos incident... But this is also one of them? To be honest when I saved the women who had been victimized by Belphegor and the old people in Demon Council ― it was just a small episode, I didn''t think much of it.]


    [At that time I happened to witness when Leohart and Belphegor fought and died together. I sensed a lot of women in miserable conditions in Belphegor''s mansion... There was also the time I rescued La from the Demon Council headquarters, and the female protagonist yuri.]


    [After the Castle exploded with its contents due to our fight, before leaving to p Chaos. I was able to repair and revive those women with my time magic.]


    [Just because of this, those people want me to be the new Demon Lord leading the Demon Realm? Girls, your stares are starting to make me a little embarrassed.]


    Embarrassed? You don''t look embarrassed at all. Even so those who heard his inner voice ate up this set and liked it.


    Especially a beautiful and mature woman who was currently drinking tea on the balcony of Eiji''s house.


    Her hair was brown in color.


    "Oh my~ My son-inw is doing great things out there. I wonder when he, Rias and the others wille home? I miss them."


    "Venna, I''m sure they''ll be home soon. The things that happened in the ce called Demon Realm seem to have reached a climax."


    "Hm... You''re right, Grayfia. I''m looking forward to it."


    "Want more tea?"


    "Sure, your tea is delicious as always Grayfia. Too bad you no longer live in Gremory Castle."


    Venna sighed, ever since Eiji and his daughter left for the Demon Realm. In the past three days she often visited Eiji''s house to gossip with women like Grayfia, Yasaka, Serafall and Shuri. Sometimes she also had conversations with Tearju and other girls.


    No one knew if Venna was trying to establish a good rtionship with the women in Eiji''s harem as a good mother-inw or if she was actually doing it for another purpose.


    Grayfia narrowed her eyes slightly at her former mother-inw. She refilled the teacup of Venna who still had a husband but often yed at other men''s houses.


    Grayfia could not help but think Zeoticus was pathetic...


    "You cane here anytime. Going back and forth using teleportation magic is not a difficult thing for you."


    "Fufu, that''s exactly what I''m doing~"


    While his beautiful mother-inw wasughing and talking with Grayfia in his house, Eiji didn''t know this. If he knew, he might rush home because he missed his mother-inw quite a bit too.


    .... Eiji looked at Ramusas and said.


    "I see, sorry, Ramusas-san. I also refused."


    "As Mio said, I''m also still young. Bing the leader of all the demons in Demon Realm is too much for me. Me, Mio and the others still have to go back to school as high school students."


    [Who wants the hassle of being the Demon Lord of a country... No, the world? Not me. I was a little interested at first, but hey without that I''m already a Demon Lord! Should I take out my own Demon Lord castle from my storage? Forget it, it''s not time yet.]


    [There are still many things waiting for me out there. For example like the plot and...]


    Pretty sure it''s about beautiful women, pping the protagonist and viin.


    The girls in the room were not surprised by Eiji''s rejection. Still some of the girls like Rias and the others remembered that Eiji had once said that he himself was a Demon Lord! Precisely shortly after mentioning that he was also a Human Saint-Gxy.


    No wonder he refused Ramusas'' offer.


    Ramusas only knew that his future son-inw would definitely not be so interested in bing a Demon Lord and would rather have fun as a young man.


    After saying all that, Ramusas naturally thanked the others for helping the Moderate Faction so much. He offered each of them a gift, but since he didn''t know what they wanted, he asked questions for that. However, none of them were interested in the wealth and things of the Demon Realm.


    This made Ramusas wonder if Demon Realm was so uninteresting in the eyes of his daughter''s group? If it was anyone else, they would at least be greedy for something.


    Ramusas seemed to have forgotten, but if it was about Eiji. He had taken some of the things he wanted. Compared to other things in Demon Realm, women like Zest, She, Lucia, Noel, and La were the best souvenirs he brought back from Demon Realm.


    In fact the main reason Eiji went to Demon Realm... In addition topleting Mio''s plot, he also did it for these women. In the original work some of them were pitiful because they were neglected by the protagonist Basara. As a flower collector― cough, I mean a man who has no other choice but to be the protagonist of a harem ― you should at least give them a warm home.


    Right, Miss System?


    ?{That sounds like something you would do, host.}


    ?{Put that aside! Let''s go home! There are still plenty of girls who need you! Some of them just need you to transform into your form and you''ll finish the plot!}


    Miss System was excited, but was it just him or was the woman sick of the air in Demon Realm?


    Eiji thought Ramusas had finished saying everything she wanted to say, he was about to say goodbye to her and bid adios to Demon Realm while bringing his daughter and the others.


    But damn―


    "You guys, wait a minute."


    "Uncle, what else do you need?"


    Before Eiji opened his mouth, Mio did so first and looked at Ramusas with slight annoyance.


    "....."


    Ramusas'' lips twitched, wasn''t he Mio''s father? His own daughter didn''t want to stay longer with her father. And not only that, Ramusas knew She, Lucia and Noel had also packed their things because as per the agreement ― they would being with Eiji from now on.


    Before gathering everyone here, She and the other two had even said their goodbyes to him. It would be a lie if Ramusas was feeling fine. Unlike the other women in the Castle, those three women were actually the closest to him and had helped him the most.


    However, these women did not hesitate to leave him.


    "Ramusas, is this about peace talks with the Demon Lord Faction?"


    The one who said that was She. That woman knew enough about the political situation in Demon Realm after the Demon Council ceased to exist and the Demon Lord Faction lost their leader, Leohart.


    Eiji and the others fell silent. What? What else? ording to the plot he had requested from Be before the woman was taken away to Alpha training. At this point there shouldn''t be any more problems, Ramusas would certainly still have some problems, but he should be able to solve them himself as the strongest Demon Lord, Wilbert.


    Especially Leohart''s ''Eight Demon Generals'' who should have been recalled from the border by Balflear. Wait, isn''t that―


    "Yes it''s about that. I just wanted to remind you guys to be on your guard because not everyone in the Demon Lord Faction defected to the Moderate Faction. There are also those who are still loyal to Leohart, especially his ''Eight Demon Generals'' who ording to thetest news have already returned to Lundvall."


    "They already knew Leohart died with Belphegor because the two fought each other when the tournament started. But they still suspect something is wrong and think Leohart''s death has something to do with the Moderate Faction."


    Basara frowned. "Of all the people, our group is the most suspected, right? There''s a chance they might ambush uster."


    Ramusas nodded at what Basara said. The two looked at the others, especially Eiji and were stunned because instead of seeing serious expressions, their expressions looked dull.


    "Eiji, those people..."


    Basara wanted to say something because the title ''Eight Demon Generals'' from Ramusas'' mouth sounded like a pretty troublesome group of people.


    [Basara, are you really intimidated by a group of Demons called ''Eight Demon Generals''? You''re the protagonist! Ramusas is just exaggerating the group''s name to make them sound really powerful!]


    [I suspect this old man Ramusas is actually just lonely from being left alone, he''s saying this to make us stay longer? Mio, your father is quite funny.]


    "Pffft!"


    Several girlsughed, even She did too. She looked at Ramusas and shook her head. Of course as a Subus who had survived the Great War in the past and was titled the Strongest Subus by the people.


    She knew the group Ramusas was referring to was indeed strong. They were all high-ss Demons. Just like her, Wilbert and Leohart. They were also demons who had participated in the Great War and survived with great achievements. Their strength was not as strong as Wilbert who was known as the strongest Demon Lord ― but they also actually had varying levels of Demon Lord strength each.


    So many years had passed since then, now She wasn''t sure how strong they were. Those eight people were extremely loyal to Leohart and would definitely not remain silent after learning of Leohart''s death and since the party that benefited the most from this was the Moderate Faction―


    Those eight people were definitely after them.


    If this was a normal situation, She would also be wearing a serious expression at this moment. But ― precisely because she knew how powerful the ''Eight Demon Generals'' were, she knew they did not need to be so wary because...


    Either Ramusas forgot or he was just pretending to forget.


    Eiji didn''t need to be said, but the power of Mio and the girls was something that even Wilbert in his prime would find it difficult to win a battle between them.


    "....." Basara did not finish his words because of the girls''ughter.


    Ramusas'' expression was not good.


    Eiji patted the protagonist''s shoulder while looking at his father-inw. At this point, Mio was clearly his and they had done things that shouldn''t be done before marriage.


    Those girls were bad, how could theyugh at his father-inw? The old man just wanted them to apany him for a while in this huge castle.


    As a good son-inw...


    "It''s alright, Ramusas-san. Since you said that, shouldn''t we leave immediately? It''s not good to continue staying in the Demon Realm."


    "If those ''Eight Demon Generals''e to find trouble with us, don''t worry."


    "Mio and the others aren''t that weak. I will also protect them of course. Ramusas-san, is that good?"


    ...


    In the end because Ramusas was his father-inw. Eiji and the others decided to stay at least one more day. They had just finished eating lunch together ― this time Ramusas also ate with them. The man tried to talk more with Mio, although it was a bit awkward, Mio did not resist talking to her father and telling him about her school life in the human world.


    Ramusas was happy although he didn''t show it on his face.


    Speaking of which before dinner, that afternoon they had met Basara''s father, Jin Toujou. Jin had a pretty good rtionship with Wilbert because of the rtionship he had with his younger sister. ―So it was no problem for that man to enter the Castle casually and suddenly greet them in the living room.


    "Yo Basara, you guys too. Nice to meet you, I''m Basara''s father."


    "Dad! What''s wrong with your hand?"


    At that moment Basara looked at his father in surprise as one of the man''s arms was bandaged as if it was broken.


    Jin smiled wryly, he looked at Eiji who was sitting with the pretty girls before turning his gaze to his son who was previously busy talking to old man us and Ramusas.


    Jin sighed and felt sad for his son.


    "It''s nothing, it''s my fault for looking down on a certain girl while you and the others were busy defeating Chaos."


    "You became like that because of a girl?!"


    Basara was surprised, Ramusas too. Putting thetter aside― Basara never imagined his father would lose to someone even though he knew if his father fought with Eiji, the man would lose.


    But still


    His father became like this because of a girl? Who?


    Jin did not answer immediately, he nced at Eiji who was smiling and looking at him curiously.


    He told everyone a short story. Yesterday, when he helped destroy the Heroic Spirits summoned by Chaos in Wilbert City. At that time, he had a fight with a girl dressed in all ck who was also doing the same thing as him. It was just because he was curious and asked about her identity. The other party attacked her like a beast, her physical strength more terrifying than a dragon.


    His right hand became like this due to the sh of his sword and the girl''srge sword.


    Jin did not mention any other details as he actually suspected that the girl had something to do with Flo ― the girl he kidnapped from the Demon Lord Faction and used as his informant, and was now dead after he told her to infiltrate Wildart to get information about Eiji and his group before meeting them face to face.


    It was actually because he was a little pushy that made the wolf-eared girl stare at him with killing intent. Her terrifying physical strength was able to break through his Banishing Shift technique and break one of his hands. If he did not immediately get serious and escape ― Jin was sure they would fight to the death.


    "..."


    As Basara and the others were stunned after hearing the story from Jin.


    Jin walked up to Eiji with a serious expression. No idea why, but She suddenly teleported and blocked his path.


    "Jin, what do you want to do?"


    The gazes of Rias, Sona and the other girls also stared at the protagonist''s father sharply because they felt that this man wanted to hurt their lovers. Putting the others aside, but if it was Rias, Sona and Akeno ― they would not hesitate to attack Jin if he dared to attack Eiji in front of them.


    The air in the room became very cold and heavy.


    Basara looked nervously at his father. What did his father want to do?! Don''t tell me he wants to seek justice for his son? Although Basara was happy, after seeing Eiji''s power so far, he felt his father was seeking death!


    "Hey girls... Isn''t your reaction too much? I just want to have a little talk with Basara''s friend. Eiji Seiya, right?"


    "Jin, I hope that''s what you''re saying."


    "Huh? She, you seem to have a good rtionship with that boy."


    "I''m now one of his women."


    "....."


    If Jin was smoking, right now his cigarette would have fallen to the floor. He didn''t expect that She who used to be Wilbert''s ex-lover was now Eiji''s woman! How did that boy seduce a woman like She? Moreover, She agreed.


    He and She certainly knew each other because of things in the past.


    If only his son had such abilities...


    But put that aside.


    It was true that Jin originally wanted to do a little violence by releasing a bit of his aura to see how strong the boy named Eiji Seiya who stole his son''s wedding dress was.


    Jin knew Eiji was strong, but he still wanted to see if it was impossible for him to defeat that boy?


    "Girls, calm down. This is Basara''s father, Jin Toujou, right? Jin-san, you don''t have the wrong person."


    "What did you want to talk to me about? Should we move somewhere else?"


    While saying that casually, unbeknownst to anyone but Jin, Eiji released his spiritual pressure ― Jin seemed to want to check how strong he was to see what his winning percentage would be if they fought, he didn''t mind giving the man what he wanted.


    Eiji''s invisible reiatsu exploded and fell on Jin''s body. In the original work, the protagonist''s father was strong. After drinking the blood of the ancient dragon Fafnir that he had defeated in the past, his power had secretly grown and many people did not know how strong he currently was.


    But Eiji knew, Jin''s current strength had even surpassed Ramusas. When fighting with Delta too, this man did not unleash all his power and chose to run away which made his pretty wolf girl upset when reporting this to him. Eiji had told Delta to return to the base, otherwise the girl would try to kill Jin again right now.


    "!!!"


    Jin froze, he stared at Eiji as if he saw a real monster. Right now Jin knew Eiji was deliberately telling him how big the power gap between them was just from the pressure they released.


    He was not physically hurt because Eiji did not n to do so, but right now Jin felt his soul that had even been strengthened by Fafnir''s blood shiver. His instincts that had been honed through many battles told him the number ''0%''.


    This was a number that indicated how likely it was that he could win against Eiji if the two decided to fight seriously.


    Knowing his son, Basara lost to Eiji. Now Jin felt it was a natural thing. It seemed like he could only look for other beautiful girls for Basara. It would be bad if Basara became Eiji''s enemy.


    Jin sighed


    "No need. I''ve got the answer now."


    "That''s fast."


    "Yes, I hope you be good friends with Basara, Eiji."


    "Isn''t that what I''m doing now?"


    "That''s good. Then..." Jin nced at his son.


    Basara was confused, what conversation were Eiji and his father actually having? The two suddenly reached an understanding.


    "Basara,e with me for a moment. I need to tell you a few things before I go again."


    "It''s about your mother."
