Chapter 1 - The Demon God

I, Azaroth the Demon god, was finally defeated by the Hero herself, Lillia, and she is my ex-girlfriend too.

"Azaroth!! It's over!!" She exclaimed,, "Today is the new era! Era of peace!

 After your death!"

"HAHAHA! Thank you." I said and of course I'm sad

"What do you mean thank you?"

"Thank you for killing me, and you all just misunderstood me. I just want to do good I don't control my soldiers, they move on their own, and me Azaroth is trying to stop them, Thank you I now have my peace."

The hero, and her army and the king heard my speech and they all saddened...

"No no no no." The hero said "W-What I have done?"

5 years ago, me and Lillia are engaged we were happy back then and no misunderstanding. We loved each other, but then one day, I've been framed by my brother. He told my Lillia that I was with another woman.

Lillia is devastated...

"What does this mean, Zar?" she asked

Zar, is my real name Zar von Alina

"No, you got it wro-" then she slapped me

Lillia von Valeria is the second princess of the Valeria empire and I'm just a baron the greatest knight of the empire and also the greatest mage, I have all attributes but my powerful attribute is Shadow.

"Zar, I'm disappointed in you, I loved you, but why?" The look in her face I know she was sad and this is all just a misunderstanding.

"No, Lillia I-"

"No, explanation! Take him out! To the depths of the abyss!" My brother said

My brother is high ranking than me because he married the duke's daughter.

Lillia cried and she is hugging my brother and I saw my brothers face smirking. I know this is all part of his plan, he wants to dispose of me because I'm strong, more reliable than him.

As a kid we promised to be strong and maybe get a higher rank in nobility, but my brother suddenly got married with the duke's daughter and I'm happy, and one day me and the princess are engaged, he was I think envious.

But I just shrugged it off and I know my brother won't do such a thing...

As my brother framed me he brought another woman...

"Princess, Zar raped me!" She exclaimed

"What!?" I shouted "I didn't-"

The princess punched me and I was angry but I didn't plan to get revenge, I was just mad, mad that my brother betrayed me, mad that my future wife believed them...

I was thrown in the depths of the abyss I fell down body injured, destroyed...

And that's when I awakened my true power, I was actually the Demon God and the Upper Gods knew that...

My father knew that too, my mother and father can't have another son so they took my mother to the Demon Gods temple to bless her.

The Demon God's name feels evil, but he is not, he is misunderstood, his ability is just to give blessings to the humans and what they desire, but they call him the curropt god. The destroyer, the Evil.

But he is actually not he is the husband of Marian the goddess of life, then one day the previous hero killed the Demon God and Marian is devasted. She started a 3 years of continuos storm and almost all the people been wiped out.

But the Demon God begged to Marian before he died to not hurt people. Because he loved and adore humans.

To the present...

"Zar, w-why did you not said so..." Lillia

"You didn't even hear me out, you just slapped and punch me. But I never seek revenge upon you people I don't even actually have an army." I said then continue "Now! Kill me! This what you want right! Right!!"

"RIGHT! RIGHT! RIGHT! RIGHT!"

I don't know why I shouted here and I don't know I want to die even though I want to live.

Lillia cried "Sorry Zar, we've misunderstood you we never knew."

"Where is Zil!!" The king shouted the name of my brother

"Y-Yes sir?" My brother approached him because he also joined the fight

"Is it true that you framed him!? Don't lie!!"

He knew his plan is destroyed but he lied again

"It's true my lord" He said

"Then how about we do the Truth detection and the Lie Punishment skill then!"

The Lie punishment and Truth detection, if you are telling the truth your safe if your telling a lie your body will be shocked by a powerful thunder bolt and there is a 50% chance the you die.

"N-No my lord! Everything I said is the truth! AHHH!!!" he got hit by the bolt

"Now, is it true that you framed him?" the King asked

"No, my l- AHHHHH!!!" He got hit again

And the soldiers gasped they are devastated they've adored Zil they even trusted him.

"NO! NO! NO!" Lillia "S-Sorry! Nooo!"

Lillia shouted as my body has been lifted to the heavens and they taught I was dead I was actually being healed by Marian the goddess of life.

"I can't let my husbands child die!" She said

I woke up 3 days later but in earth its been 3 years...

"My child! You have to go down to earth now and down there it's already been 3 years, and your ex-fiance is devastated and looking for you, I will bring you down now good luck!"

As soon as I woke up she bring me down back to earth.

Then I woke up again I'm in a forest, I have a new outfit I'm wearing all black, with a necklace that cannot be removed and a black coat too. I have a sword with the crest of the Goddess of life.

I'm in a forest and I think I'm in the elven forest and I'm 3000 Kilometers away from Valeria kingdom.

I walked for a few miles now and hunting monsters I finally arrived at the elven Kingdom.

As soon as I walked in the gate many people is looking at me I don't know why. I plan to joining on a adventurers guild to earn funds.

I asked a stranger "Hey ma'am, do you know where is the adventurer's guild here?" 

She kept on staring at me and not answering.

"Ma'am? Are you alright?"

"O-Oh, its just a few blocks near that pastry over there!" She is startled

"Thank you," I smiled and left

I finally arrived at the Elven's Adventurers guild, I went in and many people is inside. And staring at me, I went to the receptionist.

"Hey miss, I would like to register please." I said

"Yes sir, all you have to do is fill up this form."

"Okay!"

I filled up the form and gave it to her "Here I'm done."

After filling the form she finally came back.

"Before we start, we need to test you sir!"

"Okay" I said

I followed her we went to this training ground and I saw a strange man there standing and he also looks muscular.

"So this is the newly registered?" He said

"Yes sir!" The receptionist said

We faced off each other and I looked at him using my Identity skill I know he is strong but I'm still stronger.

He dashed towards me and threw a punch on my face. It hit me but it doesn't hurt.

"What?" He said nervous

I punched him back and he was thrown across the training grounds and the wall was destroyed.

"I'm sure I held back there." I said

"W-What?" The receptionist said

She approached the man and he was knocked out.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-"

"No! It's okay its part of the test."

"We will give you an A-rank because your still a new adventurer we cant just give you S-Rank immediately, and here is your card."

I received my card. I can be receive a quest.

I picked up a quest Eliminate 5 Great wolves for 10 Golds.

I went to venture up in the forest, the descriptions said that it was near the small Elven village, near the deep forest and it has been causing chaos there and many children and adults died.

And of course, I accepted the quest.

I venture out, then 2 days later I finally arrived to the small village, and always many people is looking at me, I don't know why, As soon as I've arrive Great Wolves arrived too and there are exactly 5 of them.

They are not really ordinary wolves, they tall and big, they are growling preparing to attack.

I ran towards it and used the sword the Goddess of Life gave me, I slashed it to the monster and it feels like slicing a butter and its body is torn half pieces.

And I slashed every one of them it ended just a few seconds.

"Phew, that was easy!"

"T-Thank you so much sir! You are our savior!" The elder of this village said "I am Kira, the Eldest of this village, I may look like this but I'm already 134 years old."

Yes she is young, she doesn't look like as it's age.

"Your welcome, I just accepted this quest on the guild. I will take the corpses do you have any bags?" I asked

"Hey you, bring some bag make sure its big to fit this 5 big monster."

A few minutes later I finally received the bag it was big, I put the monster inside and this monster is very light it supposed to be heavy.

But I shrugged it off thinking it was normal.

I carried the monster going inside the elven kingdom and many people is looking at me as soon as I got in the adventurers guild and put down the corpses.

"WHAAATTT!!" They shouted

"What the hell!! 5 Great Elven Wolves? Not even 10 A-Rank adventurer can easily kill that! And 2 S-ranks too!"

Since I perfectly done my job in just 4 days I received 40 gold coins instead and now I could finally go to the duchy of Elven kingdom, the duchy of Elena, its just 100 Kilometers away from here. It's a pretty big duchy, but in order to go there it takes 2 weeks to go to there.

And good thing there is a quest, escort quest for a merchant name Marlon. I accepted the quest this time I have a party.

Since the quest will start in 5 days I will stay on an inn for a while.

I went to an inn near the academy of the elves and as soon as I got there, there are a lot of students staring at me.

"Isn't he handsome?"

"I don't care if his a human I will marry him!"

I heard them murmuring, I went inside the inn, and goes to the receptionist.

"Hey, ma'am I would like to stay for 5 days!"

"It would be 50 Silver coins."

I handed her 1 gold coin and have a change of 50 Silver coins.

I went to the room it was big luxurious as expected of the Elven kingdom.

It's already been 5 days, and taking quest's and I already earned 500 Gold coins, I'm already rich. And now the escort quest will now begin.

I went to the gate it's where we met up as I got there they are already there just waiting for me there, the Escorts are all girls? But they are not ordinary girls they B-ranks.

"Hello!" I said

They looked at me in awe "Hello!!" a cheerful girl said "My name is Aria!"

"Hello, name is Eliona"

Wow she is beautiful, she is an elf, with huge boobs, and wearing a green and white suit, she has gold flowy hair and an bow in his backs.
