This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!



Word was sent to most of the demons living in the form of a human around the country and even outside.

The lord of Apollon awaits his subjects. The word spread through the help of the wizard and the other demons in their hand. And many people started moving toward Apollon.

A land where they could be free.

I had discussed many matters for a long time with both the demons and Irina. She eventually joined in on the conversation herself and kept us all on the objective path. And so, the ones that were relocating first were the ones that could help in the production of the drugs. There weren't many questionable requirements to things, and there also wasn't much wrong with the operation itself.

Now with the workers on my end being volunteers, things were going to be even better.

The ones that couldn't relocate yet would still be dependent on it. And in that time, I would do my best to use bring them all to freedom.

While the drug trade was mostly figured out, there was one last thing left for us to do. And that was to completely crush the Fonias in that field.

The magician returned, and Bathym told me that he would be faking his death as the royal physician as soon as he can.

"My liege," he had said before he disappeared. "Forgive my stepping over my bounds, but I must say these words even if I offend you."

He was stuck up as fuck. But his words were worse.

"Balam was weak, just as I am amongst the demon lords. Even many normal demons could take us on."

"What are you getting at?" I had asked him.

"Just that, my liege. The ones that you have fought, have all been weak. Please, do not consider the Fonias to be the same and do anything rash."

With that… insult, he left.

And now, we found ourselves back in the northern half of the kingdom, where the Dark Moon's few agents were still afoot and doing their best to track the forces of Fonias that battled against the demons fighting against the production.

These demons were apparently once part of Bathym's gang but had moved away mainly because of power and not because they wanted to help their people. They did not split with troubles, but Bathym couldn't not call them Fonias' lapdog.

Now, we had to end this battle on our own by wiping both sides clean.

"He made sense though," Irina said, sitting across me on a chair in the deserted dining room of the inn we had found.

We reached the town of Jujuba deep into the night. This was the place where the next battle was to take place between the two sides.

It was a shame that there were none of our guys here, so we had no choice but to book an inn. The innkeeper was a real angel and let us use the inn's kitchen on top of the rooms.

Irina and I split up to take a bath and then returned here.

In a bathrobe that she made pink using her sorcery, the two of us finished cooking, which also involved a lot of her swinging the knife at me and my swinging a ladle at her.

And then, we were eating.

And she dared call Bathym right.

"I agree too," I said. My mind returned back to the time when I had met the old man Agares. Even if I had used World's End, I doubted I would be able to scratch him.

There were still too many powerful people out there. Ones that I had not known.

But still, I didn't think anyone in the Fonias could push me over to the edge.

Yet, being safe was never bad.

Biting into her food, Irina spoke up.

"I didn't think you'd drop a bomber like that."

"Eh, everyone loves a surprise."

"Oh, it was a surprise, alright?" Irina cussed under her breath, shaking her head. We ate in silence for a bit longer when she suddenly dropped her fork and looked at me.

"Still. I didn't think that something like that would have happened in Hell."

"I don't mind it, really," I said. "Like—"

"—Yes. You're right," Irina suddenly stood up.

She moved away from the chair and came next to me. With her hands on her sides, she spoke.

"I didn't expect you to have such intentions about people. Your actions are anything but naive, yet your ideals are righteous and lofty."

She suddenly lowered her head.

"I misunderstood you. I apologize."

What?

Whattttttttttt?

WHAAAAAAT!?!

"Oh my, did someone actually break Eugy?"

What!? Why did she apologize? I thought she was a total bitch, this wasn't fair!

"I understand your dislike for me, and I still hold it toward you. But I respect you too now."

She had no right to act cool at all. It's not like there was much harm done between us, even if she tagged along at first to be a menace, everything she did subsequently was to ensure our safety.

Her attacks at me were always slow, and verbal battles went both ways.

All in all, there was nothing between us that an apology COULDN'T solve.

She had become the bigger person by apologizing!

I slowly shook my head and fixed my thoughts. Sighing, I stood up too.

I had no idea why we were bowing, but I rolled with it.

"I apologize too. Though I have the excuse of being manipulated by the demon, my actions were what they were. I do still think you're insufferable, but I trust and respect you enough for it to not matter."

The two of us nodded and then looked back up.

I was dying from embarrassment, and there was no doubt that she was too.

In the end, we finished eating in silence and said our byes before moving into our rooms for the night.

As quick as I closed the door to my room, I opened the window and hopped straight outside into the dark skies.

"Let's go train Spirit Magic!"

"YAY!"

It was training time.
