[Day 455]
It has been a few little days since I had gone to Hell and all of that crap. It was a fun experience, and I guess I might later on visit the other Layers. I left a clone there, well, more like just a second body there, where I am with Mammon and Plutus, my family goes there periodically- Ah, right, Rimuru's also there and here too, so I am not without her.
As nothing much is going on in there, I had decided to move into more important matter such as Genesis. I had discovered a few couple of things that had transpired here, such as that everyone knows what I did in Hell and even know my alliance with Mammon.
Due to that, today in the morning aside from enjoying a wonderful morning with my wives, I was being harassed by a million of messages coming from various sources.
Most of them were from a single person actually.
It was Flora.
…
Sigh, here we go.
I opened my portal and let her and Aura inside my Divine Realm.
Good thing I had finished breakfast today.
Interesting enough Yiksukesh had asked me when we were going to Helheim, as she wanted to meet her grandfather.
She melted my heart.
I remember having promised her that too…
I told her that as soon as we possibly could, and she nodded calmly. At least she got a lot of patience.
I wonder how Jormungandr is doing with Hel and all of this… I remember that eh was actually a pretty chill guy.
I cannot contact him anymore for some reason-
"KIREINAAAAA!"
Flora roared back at me, rushing towards me while riding what seemed to be a deer-shaped wood-made divine beast.
"Flora! How are you doing? GYAA!"
BOOM!!!
The massive deer fell over me, and pushed me down into the ground.
"You're going crazy! Stop this!" I said.
"Kireina! Tell me the truth! You were not brainwashed by the demons?! I think I could heal you if I dissect your brain!" she said, pointing a spear made of sharp wood at me.
"You crazy bitch, stop this!" I said.
"Bitch?! You're clearly not Kireina! She would never be so rude! You were easily brainwashed!" said Flora.
"Flora stop this nonsense! Kireina can't be easily brainwashed, she's a being of chaos… Those that attempt to brainwash her may end up brainwashed themselves." Said Aura.
"Aura do you really intend to protect and defend this demon spawn now?!" asked Flora.
"She's not a demon spawn, she simply allied one in good terms, right, Kireina?" asked Aura with a gentle smile.
Aura! My savior!
"That's right! I just allied Mammon, I am not going to become his spawn or something… Cut it off and let me explain properly." I said.
"It can't be. Mammon is a demon of pure greed; he would never ally someone without benefits. Kireina, I thought you were more intelligent but you're going to let him backstab you in the future when someone offers more money?" asked Flora.
"Of course not! And you're the idiot here for acting so reckless out of nowhere!" I said, I quickly slid out of her grasp and reformed myself from the slime-like state I was before.
"R-Reckless?! I am just preventing all our plans to go down the drain." Said Flora.
"You're just being a biased idiot." I said.
"Take that back!" said Flora.
"Flora, Kireina, please calm down! Let's settle thing with a conversation, how about we drink some tea? Here, I got the one you like!" said Aura.
Flora squinted her eyes as she glared back at me.
"Okay." She sighed, sitting down.
Gaia and Ova had showed up that moment, so she seems to have cut it off when she saw them rather than thanks to Aura, but I still appreciated his effort.
We finally sat down, with Aura, Gaia, and Ova acting as middlemen of our conflict.
"Kireina explain me at once why did you do this?" asked Flora.
"There are many reasons, but I will go with the most basic of them all, don't interrupt me until I finish it all, alright?" I asked.
"…Fine." She said.
And then, I explained her about how I ended parasitizing Mammon's soul, and how the parasite fused with his soul as both devoured one another, forming the new Mammon, with my memories and a large part of my personality mixed into him, which also changed his nature and ended making it possible to become my ally instead of an enemy.
Everyone present was left speechless.
"You can do such a thing?!" asked Aura.
"I-I knew that she had done something like this… I think. But I never expected it would end up half-working." Said Gaia.
"Kireina you're way too insane." Said Ova.
"Y-You… fused a clone of your soul with Mammon?! This made Mammon's personality and nature change into a girl-like, friendly, and feminine… young boy?" asked Flora.
"Yes…" I said.
"Unbelievable…" said Flora.
"You got videos of it already going around, you can see that he changed a lot." I said.
"Wait, what? That girl was Mammon? I thought Mammon just sent a servant!" said Flora.
"No, that's Mammon." I said.
"GEH…! T-That's so weird! What the heck? What is wrong with your soul to make people that fuse with it end up becoming something like that?" asked Flora.
"I don't know and don't ask me anymore! The thing is, he became very friendly after that, well, a bit. I also had to gain some merit, but at the end, we forged an alliance out of mutual interests." I said.
"I-I see… So you really did it in good terms at the end… So strange… Archdemons of his caliber would never do such a thing to begin with! This is indeed a very bizarre situation." She said.
"Okay you already said it like a thousand times already." I sighed.
"Hahh… Well, whatever's the case, you still have to explain to me a few things." Said Flora.
"Ugh… Okay." I sighed.
