My home, back where I left off after a reasonable deal at the palace.

“No need to plan?”

Lily asked with her arms crossed.

Plan. Maybe you need it.

We are currently planning to enter the middle of the Demon Realm, where demons are swarming.

It would be best to prepare as thoroughly as possible.

I took out my pen and placed it on the paper I had prepared.

“Lily is right. Let’s organize the plans one by one first.”

“I’ll write it down.”

Athena immediately picked up a pen and began to write something on paper.

As she put down the pen with a quick movement of her hand, the following words were written on the paper.

Main objective. To take all the demons out of the Demon World.

1. The demons who surrender will be willingly spared so that they can coexist with humanity. However, the survival of the demons will be determined by Hera.

2. All those who refuse to cooperate and attack will be annihilated. In particular, those who attack Hera will be burned to the ground, leaving no bones behind.

3. When everything is over and peace has come, Hera and Athena get married and become a couple.

Athena looking at the paper with a pleased expression.

But soon, with a very small sound of the hem of a garment brushing against the paper, it was torn into several pieces.

“I can only agree to number 2?”

Lily’s infinitely quiet voice leaked out eerily into the room.

With that said, Lily also picked up a piece of paper and started writing something with a pen.

And then he handed me the paper, and there were a few things written down that had been corrected.

1. Those who surrender will be accepted.

2. Those who attack will be cut down. If there is anyone who touches my sister, I will make them regret being born.

3. When everything is over and peace comes, I will marry Hera first, as I love her more than anyone else.

The rest are willing to accept the warrior as concubines with great generosity.

This time Lily nodded as if she liked it.

As I was slowly reading what Lily had written, before I could finish reading, the paper was engulfed in sunlight and burned away without leaving behind even a trace of ash.

“Who do you think likes Hera the most?”

As Athena spoke in a cold voice, Lily shrugged her shoulders with a relaxed expression.

“The goddess said so. I am the one who loves you more than anyone else in this world.”

One of Athena’s eyebrows furrowed at Lily’s words.

“Goddess? Don’t lie.”

“Think whatever you want.”

As she said this, Lily approached Athena and spoke to her.

“I can readily give in for my sister’s true happiness. But my sister’s first priority must be me. Marriage. And…experience.”

“Ha.”

An unknown clash of energies occurred between their eyes.

But the first one to look away was Athena. She gave a sly laugh and spoke briefly.

“Well, I don’t know if you can take Hera’s first.”

At Athena’s words, Lily’s eyes instantly turned cold.

“You…what are you talking about-”

“Stop it!!”

Unable to bear their manly conversation any longer, I hurriedly squeezed my way between them.

No, these people are real.

What kind of embarrassing things are you saying when the person responsible is right next to you..!

I quickly took out a piece of paper and wrote it down with a pen.

1. Following the words of the Demon King, he chose peace. The demons gladly accepted.

2. All demons who wish to kill will be subjugated.

3. The persuaded demons will be managed by the Demon King Arbes in the new country.

4. Clean up the demon world so that the power of the demon god cannot reach anywhere.

“Let’s do it like this..!”

Athena and Lily looked at the paper I had written with uneasy expressions.

“4. If you ask the Emperor for help and receive manpower, it will be over quickly.”

I woke up, shaking my palms a few times.

And then I turned my head and looked at Arbes and Mari, who were looking at me from that side. Then I looked at Sephir and asked.

“Is there anything you would like to change?”

To my words, they each gave various answers.

“I will follow your words. I have no desire to be the first wife anyway.”

“Do whatever you want, Mom! Marie is fine. It’ll end up being Marie anyway!”

“..My opinion will be ignored anyway..so I’m not going to say anything..”

I felt a little sad for a moment when I heard Sephir’s words, but for some reason, I felt like I would really be ignored, so I decided not to say anything.

“Yeah..then I made a plan..”

I took a deep breath and looked at them.

“When should we go to the Demon World?”

“How about going right now?”

Athena’s reply comes back immediately.

I couldn’t help but be surprised at how quickly it happened.

“Right now? Isn’t it too fast?”

“It’s better to make peace as quickly as possible.”

And Athena looked down at me with a strange smile and said:

“And I feel like I can only do something when peace comes.. I’ve been really frustrated lately.”

Athena licked her lips and spoke, causing me to shiver for a moment.

“Yeah. Let’s do it as soon as possible. Then we can get married quickly.”

Lily’s firm words are heard next.

I felt like I had to reject something, but I couldn’t help but swallow dry saliva as their eyes burned so intensely.

[It is already very late, disciple. It is all your karma, so accept it.]

‘Ah… Master!’

The sound I hear in my head at that time.

I felt excited when I heard my teacher’s voice, which I hadn’t heard in a long time.

[…By the way, you really are good at seducing those monstrous beings.]

‘Ah… no. I never really tried to seduce you.’

The Demon King tried to seduce her, but… she returned in vain in less than a day.

In fact, it was as if I had never done anything.

[..Let’s stop talking.]

But all I can hear is the teacher’s cold words.

As I was about to ask why he was reacting that way, someone grabbed my shoulder and said,

“What should I do? If you want, I can open the door to the Demon King’s Castle anytime.”

The Demon King was looking down at me with passionate eyes.

..Everyone is pretty proactive.

Well, as they say, it would be good if peace came as soon as possible.

But even so, it seemed a bit hasty to set off right away.

Although it doesn’t seem like you’ll be in any great danger as long as you’re with them, wouldn’t it be better to be fully prepared?

“..Let’s rest for a day or so.”

Don’t they say that even Mt. Geumgang looks better after a meal?

‘I want to eat the food my sister makes before I go.’

My sister who always welcomes me warmly.

While I was laughing hysterically, thinking about the food my sister made for me.

Someone burst open the door and came rushing into the house.

One of them had pure white hair, like a sheet of paper.

Another one had purple hair, similar to Lily’s eyes.

“Huh…?”

I could only stare blankly at them.

Because they were people I knew so well.

“Iris..? Ariel..?”

Iris looked at me and spoke with a strangely different atmosphere.

“I heard everything. Please take us too.”

“Yeah. I will never send you to the Demon World alone.”

I was quite embarrassed by the girls who suddenly appeared and asked me to take them with me. But what I was most curious about was…

“How did you get here..?

My home located in a forest within the empire.

If you’ve ever been inside, it would be so easy to find.

Otherwise, Marie’s barrier would have completely hidden this house.

Even if Ariel was called a candidate for the Great Wizard, it would have been impossible to find her…?

Iris slowly approached me and smiled at my confused question.

“I prayed to the goddess. If she didn’t tell me where Hera was right now, I would really turn everything upside down.”

“Huh…..?”

Isn’t that… not a request..?

And Iris, you… weren’t you originally like that..?

While I was flustered by Iris’s rather unusual words, she took a step closer to me and shyly looked into my eyes with her cheeks slightly raised.

“Hera, you said you would take care of my lover… Please take responsibility for me until the end…”

“Ah..no, that’s just because you’re having a hard time..”

If he were a normal person, he would have been thrilled by the pure and beautiful words of Iris.

I couldn’t help but tremble slightly at the immense pressure I felt behind my back.

Soon someone grabbed my shoulder.

I turned my creaking head back and looked at her.

“Hera….Who have you seduced in the meantime…?

It was clearly Athena who was smiling, but her clenched teeth told her that she was in a bad situation.

And one person holding my other shoulder.

This time Lily was looking at me with cold, sullen eyes.

“Sister…is it possible that the person Iris is dating is…you…?”

“Hi.”

Why does this situation seem so much more hopeless than entering the dangerous demon world?

It seemed like it would be wrong to leave today.
