Chapter 480: Serafall's TV program explodes
While they were talking. From the dark cloud-covered sky, a magic bullet flew towards them again.
"Tsk!" Maou clicked his tongue. Unlike before, this time he was able to dodge the attack by jumping back.
Rias jumped in the other direction and...
*Boom!*
A small part of the terotar area was blown up again. However, the Demon Lord and Hero could feel that someone up in the sky seemed to intend to shoot again.
Not only the Demon Lord, it seemed like the other party didn't mind hurting the hero either.
"We have to run away from here!"
"Maou-kun, where are we going?"
"Just follow me... Wait, can you stop calling me casually?! You're a hero!"
Maou complained, but he kept running while telling the hero to follow him. Rias ignored the Demon Lord's scolding and happily followed him even though the road behind them was blasted repeatedly by magic bullets.
The viewers were feeling a little tense. They wondered who the person was who attacked the Demon Lord and the Hero?
Not long after.
Maou and Rias hid under the roof of the train station. Luckily they were still in the city so there were plenty of locations to hide from the snipers in the sky.
At least that's what Maou who was currently panting just from running 20 meters thought. If it was him in Ente Isla, he wouldn't be so miserable. But now? Just because of magic bullets and enemies hiding in the sky, a Demon Lord like himself had to hide.
He felt humiliated to the point that his expression became extremely cold.
Rias who was standing beside him was also panting, but there was also a blush on her cheeks when her gaze fell on Maou's cold face. That woman... Either she was panting because she was tired after running or she was panting because she was horny.
Maou thought it was the former.
The viewers fell silent. Demon Lord, aren't you thinking too positively about the hero?
"Has the other side given up and not chased us? No more shots." Asked Rias with her gaze still fixed on Maou's face.
Maou did not know to notice the hero's gaze on him, he was now still peering at the sky from behind the wall.
"I don't know either. But since it attacked us with magic... The other party must have known our true identity and probably came from Ente Isla."
Could it be because of the portal again that took so long to close? When Maou thought of this, he regretted making an escape portal on top of his castle even more.
Having the hero follow him into this world was already troublesome enough. Now there was someone else who seemed to want to kill him and Rias.
He was so unlucky.
"This is all your fault." Rias said with a cold expression. She seemed to pretend to be cold in certain situations.
The viewers didn't know why.
Maou was dumbfounded and looked at the woman in annoyance.
"You're blaming me?"
"Yes, who forgot to close the portal when he escaped so as to let a hero chase after him? The other party probably did the same thing as me."
Hearing Rias' sarcasm and the naturally contemptuous expression on her beautiful face, even Eiji couldn't help but be amazed.
[Now I understand more and more why Issei in the original work could be deceived and infatuated with Rias.]
Who's deceiving whom? We're acting here...
Rias complained in her heart and wondered if she was deceiving the protagonist in the original work? Hearing Issei's name again, a look of disgust was added to her expression that made the viewers praise her acting skills.
"I'm sure this has nothing to do with the portal to another dimension I created. You think only I can make that kind of portal?"
"Then who else? Even I can't."
"Heh, just because the hero can't do it, doesn't mean that someone other than the Demon Lord can't do it. It's an ancient magic that has been lost from 200 years ago. In the past, there were some talented people who could learn the spell and perhaps pass it on to others."
Maou looked proud when he said that and added. "So this must be your fault. You didn't choose a good time and place to talk to me."
By the way it was now evening. The sun had just set.
Rias puffed up her cheeks before saying, "It's not my fault that you got off work later than 5pm."
Maou knew he came home from work later than usual. The reason was because he was called by Mayumi to her office and they exercised together before he could go home.
There was no way Maou would tell Rias about this. Moreover, he felt that something bad would happen if he told her and Roygun!
He did not know why, but it was better to keep the things he had done with his manager a secret.
The male viewers nodded. If you tell, I'm sure the Rias hero will switch to yandere mode and use force to arrest you.
Roygun is the same way. Who knew what that woman would do at night after finding out her Demon Lord was no longer a virgin.
"Whatever. Now it should be-" Just now Maou wanted to say that he wanted to go home immediately and of course they had to part ways.
But before that happened, the familiar white light flew towards them again. However, it was not like before. This time the magic bullet flew over land.
Without saying anything, the Demon Lord and Hero immediately jumped away from their position.
*Boom!*
One of the platforms that supported the roof of the station shattered into pieces. Naturally, the incident made the people around panic and fear.
Maou and Rias naturally turned towards the direction the attack came from. Unfortunately, they didn't see anyone. The other party was still hiding in the darkness.
"It looks like I'll have to end this situation by force."
Maou said coldly. A dark aura also began to emanate from his body and the eyes glowed with red light.
Ordinary people could not see that. They only feel intimidated when they see a handsome man in a MgDonald's uniform until some faint from it.
However, Rias could see it! It was a natural oppression that the Demon Lord had! Looking at the people who fainted, she wanted to stop Maou.
After all, she was a hero. She had a sense of responsibility to prevent innocent people from being harmed. But, she understood Maou was doing it to deal with the person who attacked them.
Besides, it was too late to stop her because at this moment, the shadow under Maou's feet was widening.
The viewers were excited. What kind of power would the Demon Lord show them?!
In this scene, Eiji was actually free to use whatever abilities he had. He remembered the reward he had previously gotten from Miss System and smiled in his heart.
—Ten Shadows Technique.
He hadn't explained what kind of ability this was before and it was actually one of the strongest techniques derived from the franchise titled 'Jujutsu Kaisen'.
It is a technique that allows the user to summon ten different Shikigami by using shadows as an intermediary.
And because it was a product of the Miss System. Eiji didn't have to bother moving his hands to form the seal and could use it with any type of energy he had.
As expected of Miss System. She loved him very much.
[.....]
Miss System didn't say anything, she was as usual too lazy to respond to her host's narcissism.
From the viewers' point of view. Two dog-like and bird-like creatures measuring over five meters came out from the shadow of the Demon Lord that covered the station area in a radius of ten meters.
Each of them was black in color. The large dog even looked intimidating, reminding Odin of Fenrir.
The large bird with an owl-like face and wings that emitted purple electricity didn't help either, making the viewers gulp.
They were not the Shikigami called Divine Dog and Nue. Since it was summoned by Eiji, the power of the two was naturally stronger than the original work. If Eiji wanted, he could even make their size larger.
However, given Maou's little remaining magic. He adjusted the size of the two Shikigami he summoned.
"You two, go and capture that person for me."
After the Demon Lord said that, the two animals he summoned seemed to understand who he meant. The big dog ran forward and the big bird flew after him.
...
The scene then switched to the figure of a woman sitting on a tree branch 200 meters away from Maou and Rias.
She had shoulder-length pink hair with white skin and both hands that were joined together as if she was holding a gun. The previous magic bullet came from the fingertips of that woman.
He could see a dog and a large bird summoned by the Demon Lord rushing towards his location.
She gasped but before the viewers could see her face clearly-
"Cut!"
Behind the camera, Serafall shouted a cruel word in a cute voice.
The viewers: "...."
The screen they were using to watch the program suddenly went dark. It was as dark as their hearts falling to the bottom of a cliff until many of them fell silent.
There was also the words "To be continued" with Chibi Serafall flying around with a magic wand in her hand.
Seeing that, they were very upset!
Is this episode over already? How long has this been going on?
It was only 23 minutes...
Although that's a normal duration for an anime episode.
They... Ahh! Ahh!
Many of them wanted to go crazy and if possible urge Serafall to release the next episode immediately.
Zekram who had just broken his cup of tea because he was holding it too tightly wanted to do that. But when he remembered Serafall was Eiji's woman, he could only sigh.
There was a bitter smile on his wrinkled face.
"I wonder if Eiji could film more often in Serafall's program if I gave him more beautiful women in the underworld?"
...
Eiji had no idea what good things Zekram was thinking. He didn't even know an old man like Odin was interested in investing in the Serafall program.
Episode two of "Hataru Maou-sama!" went well. Or rather it went too well to the point that over a hundred million people watched the show. Of course, that number of people included devils in the underworld and even supernatural beings from other factions.
The ratings of Serafall's program, Leviathan TV exploded and became the hottest topic on the internet.
Serafall was undoubtedly so happy that she hugged Eiji like a koala released from the zoo.
"Yeay! Eiji-chan, Yeay! Did you see these amazing numbers?" The woman showed the cell phone screen that displayed the ratings of her TV show.
Eiji smiled and said, "I'm happy for you and who do you think the amazing acting is thanks to?"
"Fufu. Of course it's because of Eiji-chan and the others."
Muach~!
With a peck sound, Serafall kissed Eiji's cheek in front of Rias the other actors including Roygun who was silent. Mars looked like she wanted to join the two, but Diana held her shoulder with her hand.
Mars pouted and Diana glared at the blonde woman.
By the way, not all actors played in this episode. So women like Vulcan, Minerva and Mercury were only there to watch from the scene.
Among the Jupiters Sisters: only Mars, Diana and Apollo acted. Speaking of the latter, she...
"Eiji! Anyone! Can you stop these animals? They keep chasing me! Aahhh!"
Apollo who was still being chased by Divine Dog and Nue shouted for help. If the spectators out there saw this, they would definitely know that it was the woman who shot at Maou and Rias.
"Ah I forgot, sorry Apollo." Eiji who had just enjoyed a kiss from Serafall deactivated the Ten Shadows Technique. Immediately, the two Shikigami chasing Apollo exploded like ink that disappeared after hitting the ground.
Apollo breathed a sigh of relief, she could finally walk towards everyone and didn't forget to complain.
"This is the first time I've been chased by such terrifying dogs and birds. My divine power can't even hurt them. Those animals- no, what kind of monsters are they?"
Of course, she was looking at Eiji while saying that. That man was so handsome and strong, no wonder Mars wanted to marry him so badly.
Diana also seemed to like him. However, Apollo couldn't imagine that woman acting flirtatiously to seduce a man.
But hey~ it would be nice to see the always serious Diana look like... Ahem, Diana was so sensitive, she was now glaring at her.
Everyone's gaze, more precisely all the beautiful women were fixed on Eiji.
"They are Shikigami." Eiji said humbly.
"Shikigami?" The women looked a little surprised. Especially Apollo, she didn't expect the creatures that were able to block the magic bullets made from her divine power to be creatures from Japanese mythology.
Of course, she had not unleashed her full power as a Goddess. Otherwise, Apollo was worried that she would destroy Serafall's studio.
However, a Shikigami who was fine after being hit by an attack from a Goddess was definitely unusual.
Eiji nodded and continued his explanation that was somewhat arrogant in his heart.
[More precisely two of the ten Shikigami under my command. Although Apollo's divine power should be enough to defeat most Shikigami. But whose Shikigami are we talking about?]
The heroines: "...."
Jupiters Sisters: "...."
Isn't the Serafall event program over? Why do they think Eiji is still acting?
Oh wait, this is Eiji. They almost forgot, even without being told to act, every day he would always act!
He likes to pretend. On the surface he was humble but inside he really liked to show off.
In short, a two-faced man! Even so, instead of hating him, many of them like him.
It's hard to hate a handsome man. Especially when he was very strong because in the supernatural world, the strong were respected and preferred by the females.
The females included them. Hearing his inner voice was also like putting icing on the cake.
A few moments later.
"Diana and the other Jupiter Sisters. Thank you for your help today." Serafall thanked the Goddesses, even those who had not played in her TV program.
The reason why the Goddesses were here was also because she recruited them as actors when they visited Eiji's house a few days ago.
Of course, it was not for free.
"You're welcome Serafall-san. We're actually having fun on this show too." Diana said.
"Um, as long as Eiji is also there. I don't mind acting as his future wife." Mars said. She hugged Eiji's arm as soon as Serafall stopped hanging around the man's neck.
While Apollo laughed, and the other Jupiter Sisters fell silent. The eldest of the six Goddesses— the woman with crimson hair with a slender figure and a flat, doll-like expression— Vulkan said to Serafall.
"Don't forget the payment for us."
"Hehe don't worry, Vulkan. Actually, without it, I'm sure Eiji won't mind."
Serafall glanced at the man in question with a mischievous smile.
Eiji: "...?"
[What kind of payment is Serafall talking about with the Jupiter Sisters? And Serafall, you didn't tell me about this before.]
[What do you mean I won't mind? Just because Diana and the others, especially Vulkan in her original body are very beautiful and have the same hair color as Rias? Hey you misunderstood me!]
[I'm not the kind of guy who will always agree to anything as long as it has to do with beautiful women.]
[Serafall, you're wrong.]
After Eiji complained in his heart, Serafall immediately told what kind of payment Vulkan meant.
"Eiji-chan, you don't mind letting the Jupiter Sisters live in your house from now on, do you?"
"Of course, I don't mind. There are many empty bedrooms in my house."
Eiji said very quickly and it was different from what he said in his heart.
The heroines were silent. But the Jupiter Sisters, especially Vulkan blushed.
Serafall rolled her eyes. See? It was easy to persuade that guy.
With this, not only did she get free beautiful actors, she also got six new sisters! As for Roygun?
Looking at the woman who seemed to be able to hear Eiji's inner voice as well. Serafall wasn't worried at all.
It was only a matter of time.
