“Whew, that was a close one,”
The next day, at the finals venue for the Singer Contest, the Chanmio Dome, the Lustful Berserker from the Seven Great Demon Lords’ realm, ‘Kimano=Kiyoni,’ who appeared as a special seed, ended up in fourth place, with Furin in first, Otuha in second, and Kyuuka (29) in third.
“Everyone, you all did so well.”
Demon Lord Kimano was truly strong, and the Chanmio Dome shook violently.
Indeed, this place was structured like a Colosseum with a hastily added roof.
Regardless, our great alliance of ‘Nina Starlights,’ ‘Next New Kama Generations,’ and ‘Little Lyric’ had emerged victorious.
(And there’s Nina, standing with barely a leg to stand on… I can’t believe she’s so battered.)
“Nina, Healing Magic, please!”
“Ah, thank you. It’s most healing to receive it from Derus.”
“Your equipment, and even your inner clothes, are all tattered. Your underwear is showing.”
Just like Ric the other day.
Of course, Nina didn’t do it on purpose.
“It’s fine, no problem. In my case, Derus will take care of me as his wife.”
And so, the ‘Lustful Berserker Meister Summit Battle’ concluded with Nina’s victory.
If I think about it calmly, it was 9 + 3 + 3 = 15 people against one Demon Lord.
Well, that’s to be expected at this point. Even without any casualties on our side, it was a close match, how dangerous.
“If it weren’t for Iwamoto’s sasumata, there would have been casualties.”
“Indeed, it was a truly ‘otherworldly’ battle.”
“Hah.”
“It’s also thanks to Hait’s defensive magic.”
“Not at all. MAINA’s physical attacks and Niizuma’s singing skills also played a role.”
“Everyone, you’ve all worked hard!”
The members of Ne-JeNe are grateful to Helen.
First, from Furin, the winner of the Singer Contest, with her dignified demeanor.
“You were a strong Succubus. Thank you for saving me.”
“You saved me several times. Thank you! *Buii!*”
“I-I… I’m glad I continued being a singer! Thank you, everyone!!”
Myesha, who kept saying she’d quit being a singer, is already acting like this after winning.
I worry she’ll end up drawing hate.
The producer, Tin=Tokita, who is sitting in the front row with his arms crossed and nodding, seems satisfied with the victory.
(There’s something I personally want to discuss with that person.)
And then there were the surprisingly strong three from Little Lyric.
Their coordination was excellent, and I was impressed to hear they were also skilled adventurers, but now they’re all captivated by the fluffy spherical Baird that Otuha brought.
“What is this? It feels so good~”
“It’s so soothing, so fluffy!”
“I want to keep this! Hey, how much is it?”
No, no, you paid so many Platinum Coins at the auction…
“Hey, hey, don’t hold onto someone else’s husband so tightly!”
“I love you.”
“Ah, I love you too, Baird… I love you.”
His wife, Diamond Golem, is keeping an eye on him to make sure he doesn’t go too far.
She also shattered once during the battle, as is customary, and had to be restored.
“Now, Nina, there’s only…”
“Ah, only one more of the Seven Great Demon Lords left.”
“Once that’s done…”
“It’s the wedding!”
The defeated Demon Lord, Kimano whatever-his-name-was, is carried away.
My wives, battered and bruised, gather before me one by one.
I go to each of them, offering words of appreciation and comfort. First…
(It’s Eighth Wife, Nare.)
Last night, despite it being the eve of the Demon Lord battle, we three had a good time together with Mariu.
Perhaps it’s because of that bond, but she was a great help with her long-range physical attacks.
“Nare, in a way, this was our party’s first battle against a Seven Great Demon Lord.”
“Yes, I was helped by everyone.”
“No, no, you did wonderfully.”
“If it makes Derus just a little happy, I’ll be glad!”
“Yes, Nare, thank you.”
Impressive, isn’t it? Her attacks, tossing cards with both hands and flicking coins on her chest, were groundbreaking.
And with her busty physique, she could move so quickly. I’m truly looking forward to what she’ll do next. Next is…
(It’s Seventh Wife, Otuha.)
With her Bard skills, she boosts everyone, increasing the effects of both offense and defense, and she also attacks with magical arrows. She’s a wonderful woman with Elf blood.
A little clumsiness doesn’t matter; she’s an indispensable wife to me now.
“Otuha, since you came, our overall strength has truly increased!”
“I can’t believe it myself. I just did my best, but to be able to help this much…”
“Thank you. Just one more, and after that…”
“Yes, let me sing a song of victory and blessing!”
She’s the runner-up in the Singer Contest, after all.
In that sense, even after defeating all the Seven Great Demon Lords, Otuha seems like she’ll be busy… And next is…
(Sixth Wife, Nataira, has returned.)
She seemed to be sharing in the joy with her sister, Lyra, in the audience.
But seeing the wives gathering around me, she seemed to have hurried back in a panic.
“Nataira’s dance and magic drew cheers from the audience.”
“Yes, more importantly, we were able to defeat the Demon Lord, and everyone did it without a scratch!”
“That’s right, it’s good. It’s the last one, let’s defeat it together again.”
“Yes!”
Immediately after replying,
She started a joyful dance with fans in both hands… this strong and wonderful dancer is also my wife!
(Next is Fifth Wife, ah, Nastasia is gazing at the night sky!)
She’s staring intently at the vast expanse of the night sky visible through the large opening between the top of the Colosseum seating and the roof, her eyes welling up with tears.
What’s wrong? She seems very emotional.
“Nastasia?!”
“Yes, Master.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Well, when I think that we’re just one step away from the wedding ceremony…”
“And so…”
“I can’t let my guard down, but for now…”
“That’s right, let’s rejoice for now.”
She’s so serious.
With her unique profession of Hero Assassin…
But for the wedding, I’ll prepare a wonderful dress for her, and then…
(Fourth Wife, Helen, is truly cool!)
She’s been showing more of her wicked side lately, to match my preferences.
It’s hard to tell if the mantle or robe she’s wearing is clothing or underwear these days.
Even the way she’s wiping her glasses now looks wicked. Yes, she smiles at me with a wicked grin.
“Master, we’ve somehow pushed through.”
“Indeed, Helen’s Succubus can wage war.”
“Then, where shall we go to destroy?”
“Of course, it’s the last of the Seven Great Demon Lords. Did you look into it?”
“Yes, the location has been identified. It’s an incredibly deep Dungeon, but with our strength…”
“Yes, we can do it.”
At this point, no matter how difficult the challenge,
No matter how formidable the enemy, we should be able to overcome it.
Helen, of course, is thankful to the Succubi…
(Third Wife, Anju, descended from the ceiling.)
She’s graduated school now, so she’s always with me.
She’s the strongest adventurer in our Nina Starlights,
And yet, she’s a cute gal-type Illusionist.
“Anju, you’ve worked hard.”
“Something like a ball was stuck.”
“On the ceiling?”
“Yes, here you go.”
“Thank you, Anju. There’s just one more.”
“After we defeat one more, it’s a happy wedding!”
“That’s right.”
“That’s! Wedding bells!!”
Her four summoned beings, well, four individuals, were also a great help.
It’s a bit much to explain incomprehensible things from another world…
Truly, Anju needs to be made happy, and of course, everyone else too.
(And Second Wife, Clarice, with her dazzling smile, is beaming.)
Even after such an intense battle,
As the Saint of the Church of the Goddess, she is, in a sense, a true goddess.
Even though it was a religious war, it’s as if she’s atoning for past assassinations.
“Clarice, it’s finally the last one.”
“Yes, let’s defeat it and receive the Goddess’s blessings!”
“For me, Clarice is…”
“Then I will bless you wholeheartedly.”
She’s no longer just a goddess, but a holy mother.
In this harem, not just me,
But everyone must adore her… For Clarice’s sake too!!
(Now, the Main Wife, who guided me this far… Nina.)
Just looking at her is intimidating.
Above all, her aura is incredible; I feel like I could be swallowed just by getting close.
No, I’m already completely consumed by Nina, body and soul.
“Nina, we’re just one step away from our promise.”
“Indeed. Defeating the Seven Great Demon Lords and a happy kiss with the morning sun, wasn’t it?”
“That’s the happy ending I’ve been dreaming of.”
“I promise, we will.”
Truly wonderful fiancées and wives…
To welcome true happiness after defeating the Seven Great Demon Lords,
We just need to work together a little longer.
“Alright everyone, let’s go defeat the last of the Seven Great Demon Lords!!!”
“OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH!!!!”
Thus, I, who achieved “Payback,”
Head towards the final battle to become a happy Hero.
“So, Helen, what’s the name of this last Seven Great Demon Lord?”
“Yes… The Green Demon, the Money-grubbing Female Demon Lord, her name is… ‘Queen Chichy’!!”
To be continued in the final chapter, where the terrifying Final Boss awaits.
