A Reincarnated Demon’s Life of Wonder

[Arc 1] Extra Chapter 3: Divine Headache



Realm of the Ultimate Gods: Celestial World, Nibiru

In the temple of the Ultimate Gods exists a meeting room in greek fashion, with a white marble table formed in a ring with twelve thrones going clockwise around the table.

Alvatria entered the meeting room with light steps and sat down on the throne made of jet-black materials, positioned where the number 6 would be on a clock. Chaos, sitting on the 12th throne that would not be strange to be called a throne worthy of a demon lord, figured out she was successful in annoying her Champion as she promised she would.

"Then, what's the result?" she asked one of the other two characters in the room.

Order, the blonde woman dressed in a white business suit stood up from her seat, which was decorated to the point of being worthy of a pope.

"With the defeat of the Disaster of Water, better known as the Water-Knot of Glavras Dungeon, the list over the twelve Ultimate Disasters will now be updated. And could the creators of the artificial Disasters please give us some more info-" - Order

"Nope~. Be happy that you got even the Disaster Rank~." - Alvatria

If stares could kill, then Terra Sol would be one Ultimate Goddess less due to Order right now. But she couldn't do anything but heave a sigh over it. None of the other Gods divulged much information about their artificial Disasters either, so having the two biggest troublemakers amongst them do so is a futile task.

"Then we all agree on having the Water Disaster's Disaster Rank at the current level?" said Order while projecting the list in the middle of the ring-shaped table, allowing all the gods present to take a look.

Chaos looked at the list, with a winch of regret that the Oracle that divined the titles of the Disasters couldn't have named his a little better.

"Fine with me~. That thing's strength was too based on its body mass to be considered B-Rank material there." said Lusalki, the adult woman dressed more for being on a tropical beach than a greek temple as she showed off her pale blue skin underneath her swimsuit.

The other Gods agreed with that, as the Water-Knot of Glavras would only be a threat if it had developed the Dungeon a little more before initiating its advent to godhood. The constant destruction and disturbances made by the Champion of Alvatria drastically weakened the Water-Knot before Glavras could activate the Disaster, resulting in it being way weaker than first expected.

"Moving on with the schedule is the proposal of ideas regarding the remaining three real Disasters. Anyone got a suggestion here?" - Order

"Sickin' the Beast at them~. Relax, it will only be the loss of three or so continents~." - Alvatria

"No way!!"  - Lusalki

"Ehh~? Why not~?! - Alvatria

"You have a reputation, that is why. And will you give us the information about... whatever that is already?" - Order

"Don't wanna~," said Alvatria, but even she wasn't going to unleash something like that... whatever the 'Beast' is supposed to be.

"Do we even know what these real Disasters are in the first place?" - Lusalki

"The Wind Disaster is at least a creature from outside the System, but it's too fast for us to observe it, let alone deal with it." - Order

"And the Order Disaster is just weird. Those invaders keep on popping up on the Superbia continent and even if one of them dies, they just respawn as if nothing happened." - Chaos

"And the Light one's a complete mystery except being worse for our PR than Glavras~." - Alvatria

All the gods heaved a *sigh*..., except Alvatria, who just played along. For her, even the Disasters were a source of amusement.

"Then, for a change of pace, let's go over the Champion rankings instead~!" - Alvatria

You just want to brag about yours, was the thought of all the remaining gods, but they had nothing better to do anyway, so Order retrieved the information about the Champions as a means to keep the Darkness Goddess' mood uplifted.

Along with the table came a list showing the rankings of the Champions based on the number of Proofs they had obtained.

  1. Champions of Agnir and Order (6 Proofs)
  2. Champion of Qulux (5 Proofs)
  3. Champion of Kishror (4 Proofs)
  4. Champions of Lusalki, Nirmer, Iksti, and Helphahatur (3 Proofs)
  5. Champions of Alvatria, Yrlanaya, and Tharos (2 Proofs)
  6. Champion of Chaos (1 Proof)

"Yeah, it seems that Chaos is still at last place." - Alvatria

"You don't have to rub it in..." - Chaos

"Yours is still alive, compared to Helph's and Kish's Champions." - Lusalki

"Speaking of which, is Helph's Champion dead? I never heard about his cause of death." - Chaos

"He's at least out of the competition~." - Alvatria

"Then, if that is all, shall we end this meeting?" - Order

"Already?" - Lusalki

"We can't call this a meeting in the purest sense with only one-third of the members assembled." - Chaos

"Then, dismissed!" - Alvatria

The Darkness Goddess then left her seat before Order could say her part. Chaos left his seat as well to follow the goddess into the corridor catching up to her just as they entered the gardens of the divine temple.

"Hey, Ria, got some time?" - Chaos

"Only for a price." - Alvatria

Without another word, Chaos produced something he knew the Darkness Goddess had a weakness for: sweets from a different world.

"Yay~. Chaos and Order are sure damn blessed, being able to get goods from other worlds like that~." - Alvatria

Alvatria sat down on the table produced by Chaos and started to munch on the sweets, looking no different from a regular girl of her apparent age, rather than a goddess of Darkness, fortune, and evil.

"Then, what's on your mind?" - Alvatria

"First off, I got to ask: is the Disaster of Darkness something you made?" - Chaos

"Eeh~? What are you talking about~? Of course, I did~." - Alvatria

Chaos sighed out in relief at this piece of news. Then in the worst case, Ria can stop the Disaster-

"But the thing is, that child only responds to 'start-up'. Even I cannot order it to stop~." - Alvatria

"Say what!?" - Chaos

"Aw, relax. I've made several countermeasures to prevent it from crushing the world. Even I will be sad if my playground gets destroyed." - Alvatria

But you wouldn't mind if the excitement overdid the loss of never being able to use that playground

Chaos couldn't do anything but hope that humanity would be able to use said countermeasures when the time comes for that Disaster to awaken. Not that he was any sure if the result would be a world better or worse after said Disaster ran through it.

"And let me guess: your next question is about which Disaster is 'black'?" - Alvatria

"...Just as you say." - Chaos

Alvatria had mentioned to her Champion that eight of the Disasters were made by the Ultimate Gods, but that number is a little off. Or rather, the Gods couldn't allow the humanoids to figure out that they could produce such threats on their own.

"Going according to the list, that 'Titan' is a mystery. But knowing Agnir, she's probably made that one herself. Or rather, she would have extinguished the Disaster beforehand and replaced it with her own that's several times worse." - Alvatria

"Ah, that's true. To the point where humanity is forced to call upon her again." - Chaos

The Ultimate Goddess of Fire would never turn away the opportunity to make havoc on the mortal realm after all.

"As for Glavras that my Champion crushed, he probably got the information by some slip-up from Lusalki, but she's trying to hide that fact." - Alvatria

What is she doing!? 

Chaos couldn't resist the headache coming from his older sister's troublesome personality. Even Ria's more responsible than that airhead.

"And for the Wind Disaster, since it's something completely unknown creature, the chance of it being from a different world is the most probable explanation, but you and Order are more knowledgable about the other worlds. Figure that out yourself." - Alvatria

Figured she would say something like that.

"And the Earth Disaster is probably something that evolved outside the limits of the System, but that Kishor decided to keep quiet about it because he felt bad for the little critter." - Alvatria

Its title and the old man's personality would make you believe that theory...

"The Light Disaster is natural. If that straight-laced idiot were to make something like a Disaster, then its Disaster Rank wouldn't be that low." - Alvatria

"True that. He would probably take his job too seriously and create something like a rank S+++." - Chaos

Chaos shuddered over the thought of what the Light Ultimate God would have made if he was given that job.

"And I've just explained my Disaster, so moving on to Iksti's-" - Alvatria

"Which is a challenge-type Disaster. I already know that." - Chaos

"We have to thank the emperor for defeating it so fast. Especially considering the continent it appeared on have seen better days." - Alvatria

"Then what about the 'Myth-Killing Armament'?" - Chaos

"Probably something that Helph made? It's not shown itself, so I'm not sure." - Alvatria

And Helph himself doesn't want to tell anything about it. Heck, is its Disaster Rank even real?

"The Sludge was artificial, as Yrla enhanced something similar that already existed." - Alvatria

She bragged about it in the first Disaster-related meeting, so that came as no surprise.

"As for the Death Disaster, it could be equally something that Tharos made or something that crawled up from the Netherworld on its own." - Alvatria

In other words, too little information...

"You know more than me about the Order- and Chaos Disasters, so I'll skip them." - Alvatria

"Sure, if you say so." - Chaos

"Then, for my reward: ten more of these!" - Alvatria

"Oi! They were the whole payment!" - Chaos

"Only for me listening to your request. The information I had about each Disaster costs just as much each, and that's family service to boot." - Alvatria

And like that, Chaos had to produce more sweets from the other worlds for the goddess that seemed to not know the fear of toothache or turning fat. Just another peaceful day in Nibiru...

Kigal-Note: The Twelve Ultimate Gods

The Twelve Ultimate Gods:

During the world-spanning battle against the Genesis God, twelve pieces of its power broke free from it, gained their own will, and turned into Elemental Gods, each governing a certain element of the world. They were later made chief gods of the new world created by the corpse of the Genesis God.

Powers, abilities, and Authorities:

The Twelve Ultimate Gods are creatures that live on a higher plane than the mortal realm. However, they live their lives on Terra Sol by creating Avatars based on the creatures registered in the World System.

The Ultimate Gods' powers are virtually limitless, but due to that fact, they cannot function in the mortal realm. Their powers while on Terra Sol are limited to that of their respective Avatars.

Alvatria's comment: It's a pain having so many responsibilities ~.
