Chapter 909: The acceptance of Métis.

While dinner progressed with music that was pleasant to the ears, and a soft and very comfortable atmosphere.

The heavenly father, and Ariel internally can't help but think again that this is a completely different place than the old hell was.

In fact it would be an insult to compare the current hell with the old hell.

The lively climate, the well-developed society with its own economic power and influence, produces better entertainment than humans on Earth. Everything was completely different.

Instead of being in hell, they think they are on a completely different planet with beings that look like demons. Although this fleeting thought only appeared for a moment, after all, the miasma of hell could not be hidden from light beings like them.

Even though they were feeling quite complex about the current hell, they couldn't help but think that the current hell was completely self-sustaining.

Which means that the angel alliance has no political power for Victor, the heavenly father and Ariel completely understood if it weren't for the future threat from beings from a higher level sector than theirs, Victor wouldn't even have thought about accepting this alliance.

After all, let's be honest, what does Victor gain from this alliance? Influence? His very existence as the being who holds the divinity of Begin and Negativity already puts him with a lot of power of influence in his hands, the same could be said of his faction called The Dragon Nest.

A faction made up of several beings, the main ones being demons and dragons. And not just any type of ordinary dragon race, but real dragons controlled by the Progenitor of dragons.

The more Heavenly Father and Ariel learn about hell in this casual conversation, the more they realize they have nothing to offer Victor. In other words, their alliance was expendable...

'...Is that why he didn't readily accept the deal?' Ariel couldn't help but think about it.

After all, unlike Amaterasu, who he immediately accepted as an ally, the angels would be in a 50-year waiting period for Victor to 'organize' the house, words spoken by the man himself.

They would have to wait 50 years to have a deep alliance! And that was unacceptable!

Even though they wouldn't immediately become enemies due to the good relationship between the angels and demons, they couldn't rely on that feeling, they needed something concrete.

After all, what guarantees that tomorrow Victor's feelings will change, and he will decide to attack the angels? Even if they didn't want to think about it, the Show's presentation of Lilith openly talking about her 'hatred' for angels and her heavenly father left the thought that demons still harbored negative feelings towards angels.

...Which was obvious, even the angel himself had bad feelings towards the demons, such an old rivalry cannot be erased that easily.

The angels and demons are not warring now because their own leaders forbade it, if not for that, they were sure these two races would be at war.

And in this hypothetical war, they would be completely outmatched.

'We need to offer something meaningful to this alliance.' Ariel's thoughts, and the heavenly father were synchronized on this one point.

The heavenly father clearly knew that few could influence Victor. Women? They already had wives, and each of them was beautiful.

Despite having confidence in his daughters... He clearly knew the defect they had, how can he say... They were too 'robotic'? They didn't seem as interesting as a very obsessive vampire, or a dragon goddess like his 'daughter' now. Although his daughters' current state was due to his own fault, after all, he needed obedient soldiers who would follow his orders.

'The only significant thing I can offer in the short term is... The fruit of good and evil... But such a decision would be like giving even more pairs of wings to a tiger that is already flying high and at high speed.

Thinking about the fruit's hidden power, he couldn't help but shudder internally at the thought that this power would fall into the hands of someone already as powerful as Victor: 'If he could master the fruit's power, good and evil... He will truly become an even more unstoppable being.'

Therefore, giving such a relic was out of the question in the heavenly father's opinion. 'Maybe I should give away my creative projects? After all, he was a creation god in the making too...'

That thought quickly disappeared from his mind; as a creator, he didn't feel comfortable giving his designs to another creator.

The feeling of discomfort was the same feeling as if the engineer of a luxury building gave this project 'for free' to another beginning engineer.

Little did he know that Victor didn't really need any project from him, after all, his new ally would give him a gift of information on how to progress his deities.

During the conversation, despite trying to hide it, Victor could easily feel the feelings of the two beings in front of him, he didn't need an observant genius like Victor to understand what kind of thoughts they were having.

It is worth mentioning that he did not expect Lilith's presentation to have this type of effect on the angels.

'But isn't that good? This way, they will be even more committed to doing public relations.' At least with the current government, this was a reality, such a thing would hardly be repeated for other demons.

After all, all of this was only possible because Victor has strict control over all demons.

It may seem bad, but the angels really are not wrong in not wanting to negotiate with the demons or being cautious. History could not be erased, and demons could be worse than witches when it came to making contracts.

A reality that Victor has changed, and is making everyone see it... At the same time he says: 'We really don't need you'.

They were already strong and self-sufficient, in terms of civilization, they didn't need anything because they had beings like Victor in charge, beings capable of meeting any civilization's needs with a simple snap of their fingers.

[Master, everything is prepared.] Hearing Helena's voice in his mind, Victor displayed a small inward smile.

[Good work, Helana.]

[Mmm. All for you, Master.] satisfaction could be heard from Helena's voice.

Seeing that the group was finishing eating the feast, Victor spoke, "Once you're done, would you like to see the rise of my demonic commander?"

"...Sure." Caught by surprise by Victor's sudden question, the heavenly father responded positively, the more information he gathers on this trip, the better it will be for him, therefore, he did not refuse.

And if the heavenly father goes, Ariel as her bodyguard will also go, after all, she needs to protect this man... When she remembered this fact, she began to grumble internally.

'Because of his abrupt decision to quickly come to hell, we are without any protection.' If this man decided to do something, they would be completely helpless.

...Though with his current level of strength, he could do anything, and most beings would be completely powerless to stop him.

Victor was currently one of the strongest existences in this sector, and according to his personality, he wouldn't do something like that unless they provoked him first.

But Ariel wouldn't trust that, after all, she is a general, and she needs to protect her father, therefore, she prefers to play it safe.

In the midst of her thoughts of distrust, and of responsibility, she couldn't help but unconsciously say entirely when she put the food in her mouth: '...Ah, this food is really very good.' She never thought that she would genuinely like the food of the hell... Something is wrong with this situation.

In fact, something is completely wrong with the world, all common sense seems to have been thrown out the window because of the appearance of this abnormal being. Ariel narrows her angelic eyes at Victor, in response Victor just smiles naturally.

A smile that makes the Virtue of Generosity slightly ashamed of her inner thoughts, after all, while Victor was treating them with generosity, she was returning this attitude with distrust.

...

Following Victor towards the demon king's castle, the group couldn't help but look at the scenery with a distracted gaze.

Currently, they were floating above the city at a rather leisurely pace, despite having said that he had something to do regarding his commander, Victor did not rush as they expected, instead, he went quite slowly to show everyone your city.

A gesture that Ariel once again noticed, and it made her feel bad for having bad thoughts for Victor when he was such a perfect host.

When she compared his attitude and that of the demons, with the attitude of the angels...

...Compared to the splendid hospitality, good food, wonderful city, the angels just pointed the gun at Victor, she was lucky not to have the sky on fire right now.

After comparing the two, she couldn't help but wonder why the sky seemed like such a terrible place? Shouldn't it be the other way around!?

Due to her satisfied stomach, she simply forgot a single simple fact, Victor suddenly appeared in the sky thus warning everyone of a possible enemy, the angels' reaction was not wrong.

Such a reaction would also be likely if an angel invaded the demons' territory without warning. But due to her satisfied state, her thoughts towards Victor, she completely forgot about this fact.
