This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!

Chapter 375 367: Pandemonium

"Quack, I kid you not, Quack. These streets haven't been this lively in the last seven hundred and forty-nine years."

The old antler demon in the shop kept waving his antlers around as he spoke.

As he mentioned, all around, demons had gathered like housewives on a clearance sale. Everywhere one turned, demons demons, and demons walked.

The stone architecture with details and intricate carvings all over the place, the lamps with a blazing blue flame, and the red skies unchanging as ever.

"What's got them running?" I asked, pointing at the monster meat sandwich the shopkeep was selling.

"Quack, it's all about, quack." He shook his head and started picking stuff out of the freezer. I nudged my companion as well to pick something but he only shook his head. Not my loss.

"All these, about thirty whole demon lords quack. They have all gone under a single person and are planning to pull something big. Quack. After so many years, everyone will be present for the Walpurgis Nacht. Even lord Bael—Ah, here you go."

I took the sandwich from him and eyed it carefully first.

"Are you sure it's edible?" My companion asked.

"I'll have to taste it first, sir. Don't worry, I won't feed you disagreeable stuff."

I slowly bit into the meat.

Hm.

Not human.

"I wonder who this new demon lord is, truly. People say he walks around with a human who can tell everyone trustable from anything with just a glance."

"Right?" I asked the shopkeep.

"By the way, young customer, is that a human next to you?"

I looked to my side and nodded.

"It is."

"Oh, how curious. How very curious, how are people not getting after you already?"

"What demon can speak against a demon lord? It's a hierarchy thing."

The man widened his eyes and stepped back.

"You're a demon lord?"

I bit into the sandwich once more and nodded. God, damn hell sandwiches. Why were they so damn good? They were probably using something crazy for it, right?

I had heard of a ramyeon store that may have been using cat meat in their meals once. It was a pretty enigmatic place.

"Do you use cat meat, keep?"

"Ahem, ahem ahem!"

My companion started coughing.

The shopkeeper looked at him.

"Human, demon lord… oh my god! You're the demon lord who has gathered thirty others under his thumb!!!"

"That's me."

Two weeks had passed since the end of the East Unification War.

And now, I was in hell.

Coming straight in from Apollon, I first made a permanent gate in the Ediab forest and connected it with the City of Dantalian. Then, I took over said city and brought my entire gang over to hell as well.

It was strange how things turned into me getting a whole gang.

That said. Just taking over hell without much of a plan was risky, hell itself was very risky.

So I had little choice but to bring a wise sage along with me. He was initially going to read the star for our fate, but I needed the wisdom and insight of the person who could easily tell I had turned into a demon when even Titania couldn't.

Maybe Kai would have been able to, but if that was the case, then it was safe to assume that this enigmatic person, the grand wise sage who was currently being dragged around by me was almost as strong as him.

That he would stick around at all was already pretty much a big deal on its own.

What happened next was pretty easy, to be honest. Ranked 11, Sitri herself was already a big shot and also the highest-ranked demon lord that was involved in this vocal majority that wanted to take over the human realm and get rid of all people like some edgy teens on some serious hormones.

They all were easily swayed when Sitri, who was more geared toward battle and less toward brains, easily accepted my proposal.

As I stood now, I was stronger than even Sitri, a berserker that could easily kill hundreds and hundreds on the battlefield.

They all easily swayed over to my side, there was no swaying to do in the first place, we were all going to do the same thing anyway.

"I-I did not put anything strange, great human sage!"

"Of course, you didn't," I said. "The sage here would have figured it out ages ago if you did anything funny with my food."

The sage with me nodded.

He was brought over by Keith and that he would be so useful was already a shocker.

"S-s-sir demon lord…" The shopkeep asked.

"What is it?"

"A-a-are you going to join the Walpurgis today?"

I looked to my side. Past the walls and buildings, through the streets of the grandest, greatest city of hell, was the giant, enormous mountain that stretched to the red skies.

Its sides were covered with blood-like secretions while monsters of all kinds danced on it.

Of course, all this stuff wasn't really visible to many others with normal eyesight. It took some demonic viewing to figure it out.

I ran my hand through my hair and smiled.

That was the grandest dungeon of Hell.

Just like Elysium Tower in the Mortal Realm. And just like the sanctuary in heaven.

This was Pandemonium.

"Of course," I said. "That's what I am here for."

"W-what are you here for… sir?"

The sage coughed and turned around.

"Revolution, young padawan."

Fuck.

How did he know!?

I never told him about any of it! Could he also read minds? I was once again humbled by this sage.

Of course not really, I was just kidding for the most part.

It would take an idiot to not figure out this bastard was throwing out words like anything. He was just… incredibly lucky.

"Right? He's so damn lucky."

Ok, maybe not an idiot, but a fairy.

He couldn't notice Titania no matter what she did. It was obvious right then that he was not as strong as I thought him to be.

and charismatic as I goes out and starts respecting a man like this who I could easily turn into a puppet?

"But he's still very lucky."

Very lucky.

And of course, imagine what would happen if someone as strong and charismatic as I goes out and starts respecting a man like this who I could easily turn into a puppet?

Others would also follow and do the same.

I was just in the process of making a perfect scam.

Because I would need it soon.

I stretched my hands above my head and yawned.

"Let's go, sir. We have a lot more places to be at."

"Certainly."

***

"WOOOOOOHOOOOO!"

"Oh dear! This is so fun!!"

"Stop acting so stuck up!"

A scream resounded in the red skies of hell as a young Rizzler whirred the accelerator of a bike made of purely bones and leather. Behind him was stuck a young lady with ringlet curls bobbing around as if announcing her status as a rich and stuck-up princess.

Watching this scenic sight was another group on bikes.

Two more to be precise.

Luka dashed through the sand with Adelia in his back seat and so did Princess Hoya with Anatolia behind her.

Watching this play out was a group of other ladies.

With a smile that anyone could tell was right out of a horror movie, Noa Roselle watched the scenic beauty of the couples playing around on the motorcycles.

It reminded her of her own time.

But unfortunately.

The person that she wanted to play around with just like this was too busy being a demon lord and gathering all the others of his ragtag little gang and making his way out of hell or something.

The outskirts of Pandemonium City were scenic.

And that scenic ness of the place was ticking Noa off.

This was all.

All because it was necessary, sure.

But she still wanted some time to romance around. He said that she would have to make him look at her, even though he always ran straight into her arms when things got tough for him.

He still only looked at that Acacia bitch.

There was a problem here.

She could understand that some stuff was important, and as they all had different roles, all the 'humans' in the group right now were busy enough having fun and looking around while the demons and the cultists went around making their move.

And as the leader pulling all the strings, her object of affection, as much as she wanted to call him objectively but failed to surpass the cringe of, was too busy to be able to look at every one.

She had to do something to make sure she doesn't lose.

There was the angel bitch.

Then the maid bitch.

Then the other maid bitch.

And she could tell, oh she could tell.

The teacher bitch had joined the gang too. No matter how much she denied it, the teacher bitch had fallen.

And then there was also the childhood friend bitch who Noa really couldn't figure out.

What could she do to make sure she doesn't get taken away?

She had learned rather well these last few days.

"I can just kill them."

Though all the 'bitches' she complained of were right around her, none of them shook their heads at her words.

Since all of them reached the same conclusion at the same time.

***

The system of Pandemonium was strange.

The Walpurgis Nacht, as big a celebration as it was in Hell, was always held in the dungeon in the same belief that a dungeon was the safest place. It was slightly skewed, but I didn't mind it.

We were going to change just that, after all.

Just on that accord, all the demon lords in attendance were greeted by the men of the grand chancellor, Lucifuge Rofacale and led to residences they could stay in.

The door of my room in such a residence was knocked on then.

"Demon Lord Eugene," The man outside spoke. "Night is about to fall."

I looked out of the windows.

The sky was still red.

But the time was here.

The Walpurgis nacht. Was about to begin..
