Anime Crossover: I Was Chosen by a Goddess and Became the Demon King

As a high school student from an island nation whose grades have never fallen out of the top three in her school, she is used to reading all kinds of books in her spare time, so she knows more about ghost stories and myths than her older sister.

"Exactly."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe reached out his hand amidst Yukino's puzzled gaze, and then, to the girl's surprise, pulled her into his arms and kissed her cheek.

The girl who noticed Haruno's gaze immediately looked embarrassed.

Although last night, I had already been honest with Bai Zhe and Yang Nai, and even did many things that I used to think were shameless.

However, with her aloof nature, she was clearly not used to Bai Zhe's sudden displays of affection in front of other people.

Driven by curiosity, the girl suppressed her shame and asked Bai Zhe again, "But there are two dragon-slaying heroes, Sigurd and Siegfried. Which one did you kill?"

Yukino's words made Shiratsugu burst into laughter.

"He is Siegfried, and he is also Sigurd. The so-called Siegfried is actually a modified version of the legend of the Sigurd myth. Sigurd is the real prototype."

"He is the steel hero who slays the evil dragon, but also the cursed one. The evil dragon collects and guards the treasure, and the hero takes possession of the treasure after slaying the dragon. The so-called dragon slayer becomes the dragon himself. This is the origin of my power."

Listening to Bai Zhe's explanation, Yukino Yukinoshita said with a strange expression, "Are all myths this convoluted?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe kindly explained to his woman, "It's normal for myths to differ between different worlds."

Just like in the world of Godslayer, the same god has multiple identities. In the Garden of Shadows, gods can even exchange things like identities. Some mythologies in other worlds are even very different from those on Earth.

Bai Zhe's words prompted Yukino Yukinoshita, who was standing to the side, to sigh in admiration.

"It seems our vision is still too narrow."

While sighing, she also picked up her phone from the bedside table.

"It's already 2 p.m., I slept for a really long time."

After complaining about how quickly time was passing, Yang Nai hugged Bai Zhe's arm and asked him, "Zhe-kun, are you hungry? If not, would you mind if we took a shower first and then went to eat?"

"Let's take a shower first."

Although after becoming a god-slayer, the cursed power will automatically cleanse the dirt on the body, keeping the body free from dust.

But Bai Zhe will not change his enjoyment of taking a bath.

Not to mention that she was with a pair of beautiful, young sisters who allowed her to do whatever she wanted.

Without even asking Yukino's opinion, the two made their decision. Then, Haruno picked up her old clothes from the ground, put them on, and, along with Shiratsu and Yukino, who were also dressed, headed to the hot spring in the backyard.

Along the way, in order to take care of her younger sister's injury, Haruno walked very carefully with small steps, and Yukino was not stupid, so she naturally saw that her older sister was taking care of her.

This time, however, she didn't say anything defiant like before. Instead, true to her quiet nature, she silently followed behind Yang Nai.

So soon, Bai Zhe left the two of them far behind. By the time they arrived at the hot spring, he was already soaking in it.

After the servants outside the hot spring put away the new clothes, they went to inform Xue's mother that the two young ladies and Bai Zhe had woken up.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita was not very satisfied with the bathing process.

So much so that after taking a bath, having researched online how to make a thin body fuller, the girl would drink a glass of hot milk after her bath every day.

However, today, the cup of hot milk that the servant brought her made her look at it with disgust.

Chapter Seventeen: Will Humanity Be My Enemy? (Seeking Flowers, Add to Favorites, and Monthly Tickets)

After Bai Zhe and the other two finished lunch, it was almost four o'clock.

The moment the Demon King put down his chopsticks, Yuki's mother served him tea and then handed him a contract detailing all of Yuki's family's assets.

However, Bai Zhe only glanced at it before placing the contract on the table with a bored expression and saying to Xue's mother, "Didn't I say I don't need these?"

Upon hearing this, Yuki's mother lowered her head slightly and replied softly, "The Yuki family is ultimately under your control, so I thought that even if you don't become the chairman, I should at least show you the business."

In response to Xue's mother's words, Bai Zhe simply nodded calmly and offered a casual compliment.

"You do have a heart."

However, Snow Mother caught a glimpse of the God-Slaying Demon King's slightly upturned lips out of the corner of her eye.

Just like the ancient ministers facing the emperor, there are some things they can choose not to do, but they also cannot choose not to do.

Clearly, her actions just now pleased Bai Zhe greatly.

Sitting on the left, Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her mother's still humble appearance in front of her son-in-law and instantly felt that her decision yesterday was indeed the right one.

At the same time, Bai Zhe picked up the contracts on the table again, but instead of looking at them himself, he handed them to Yukino Yukinoshita and said, "Yukino, take a look for me and list the ones you think have potential."

"understood."

Upon hearing this, Yukino Shino nodded, knowing that Shiratsu was testing her abilities, so she looked through the document with extra care.

Soon, the room fell silent, with almost no sound except for the occasional rustling of papers that Yang Nai was flipping through.

A short while later, Bai Zhe looked at Xue's mother, who was still kneeling in front of him, and asked curiously, "Is there anything else, Mother-in-law?"

Having already taken two of the other party's daughters, Bai Zhe's attitude towards the exceptionally young-looking woman in front of him would naturally be much better.

Upon hearing this, Xue's mother kept her head down and did not look up: "There is indeed something else, please allow me to report it."

Seeing this, Bai Zhe nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead and speak."

"This morning, a special correspondent from the Tokyo Ministry of the Environment came to investigate some matters. Although I sent them back for the time being, a new correspondent may come instead."

"I'm worried that your whereabouts have been leaked."

Upon hearing what Yuki's mother said, Yukino Yukinoshita, who was flipping through contracts and inspecting the property, and Yukino Yukinoshita, who was quietly watching this side, immediately looked at Shirotsu, and together with Yuki's mother, they showed worried expressions.

After all, in their view, it is almost impossible for one person to want another country's institutions.

Although Bai Zhe is a god-killer, whether he can stand up to the entire national institution is still unknown.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Xuemu believes it's best to be conservative for now.

Yukino's hand unconsciously crumpled the contract in her fingers, and she asked in a flustered manner:

"Could it be that you gave us away when you took us into the sky last night? You really shouldn't have taken us into the sky."

She was now regretting not refusing Bai Zhe's invitation last night; otherwise, he wouldn't have been exposed to the nation.

After all, if Japan knows about Bai Zhe's existence, it means that countries with extraterrestrial satellites have a very high probability that they also know about his existence!

As a result, Yukino Yukinoshita thought of many scenes from movies, including arrests and experiments, and couldn't help but worry about her man's situation.

She only became his woman yesterday. If he gets arrested soon, wouldn't she become a widow at such a young age?!

Faced with the three people's worries, Bai Zhe burst out laughing.

"Hahaha—my whereabouts have been leaked? I never intended to hide my whereabouts."

"Now that the higher-ups in this world know of my existence, given human greed, they will definitely want to understand me and dissect an existence like me."

"The Marquis of Voban flooded Mediterranean ports and occupied the entire Balkan Peninsula; the leader of the Luo Hao Cult unified the martial arts world of the Celestial Empire, establishing the 'Five Prisons Holy Cult,' ensuring the dynasty's survival and bringing three-tenths of the world's martial arts masters and sorcerers under his command; the Black Prince, through his own efforts, established the 'Royal Factory,' manipulating the entire United Kingdom at will..."

"I suppose I should do something to let the world know what the Demon King's reputation is?"

"Let's start with these arrogant and overbearing high-ranking humans who know nothing of reverence."

As Bai Zhe finished speaking, the three of them, including Yukinoshita, immediately showed expressions of shock.

Snow Mother asked Bai Zhe in horror, "...Are you going to wage war against all of humanity?!"

It's important to understand that, whether it's the neon-lit world beneath her feet or other major world powers, a single move at the top can have far-reaching consequences.

If they did that, the Yukinoshita family would be completely on the opposite side of humanity.

If Hakutsu wins, the Yukinoshita family's status will naturally rise throughout the world; but if Hakutsu loses... what awaits the Yukinoshita family is unimaginable devastation!!

Therefore, at this moment, Xue's mother wanted to advise her son-in-law, Bai Zhe, that even if he had such a desire, he should take it one step at a time.

There's an old saying in China: "Build high walls, store up grain, and delay declaring yourself king!"

Bai Zhe knew exactly what Xue Mu and the two girls were afraid of, so he comforted them, "You're mistaken, Mother-in-law. It's not that I want to be an enemy of all mankind, but rather that all mankind wants to be an enemy of me?"

"Only when faced with real calamity will humanity recall the fears rooted in its soul."

"At that time, these arrogant fools who disrespect the Demon King will realize that they are nothing but mortals and will be burned to ashes in the dragon's flames."

He knew that even if some countries might stand by and watch how things developed, there was one country that would definitely take action to find out about the supernatural phenomena surrounding him in order to maintain its position as the dominant power on Earth!

So he was waiting for the right moment, waiting for an opportunity to make up his mind to personally turn millions, tens of millions, or even more people to ashes!

As for whether humanity's current technology can defeat the god-killer?

You'll see the answer when you look at Godkiller World.

Even though that world had rebellious gods, god ancestors, magicians, and nuclear bombs made with modern technology, it was only when the final king awakened and fulfilled his duty to annihilate the demon king that the fate of the god-slayer was finally ended!

With 21st-century human technology alone, the idea of ​​defeating any god-slayer is simply a pipe dream.

After all, even Elsa, the most gentle and harmless among the Godslayers...

Once she appears, everyone who sees her will be influenced by her power and become her fanatical followers, willing to be driven by her, even if it means their death!

Moreover, even disregarding destructive power, each god-slayer possesses their own means of survival, which are mysterious methods that current science cannot explain.

Therefore, Bai Zhe has absolutely no worries about not being able to defeat all of humanity.

The only thing he wants to know right now is what exactly is the maximum output limit of his Evil Dragon form.

Chapter Eighteen: The Beast of Dragon Blood! (Seeking flowers, favorites, and monthly tickets)

Since they were prepared to be enemies with the human elite, in order to prevent the enemy from finding their weaknesses, Bai Zhe had Xue Mu buy some obedient hunting dogs.

Then, he fed them diluted dragon blood, attempting to create dragon blood creatures that obeyed his commands.

Although dragon blood is said to grant creatures great power in mythology, the malice contained in Bai Zhe's evil dragon blood was too strong, and of the ten hunting dogs that Xue Mu bought, only one survived.

Amidst howls and roars, they were burned to ashes by the blood of the evil dragon.

Those chosen hounds that withstood the malice of the evil dragon's blood evolved into fearsome dragon-blooded creatures that could breathe fire, have dragon horns on their heads, be covered in mane and scales, be several times larger than lions, tear trees apart with a single claw, and smash rocks as tall as a person with a single headbutt.

Unfortunately, due to the influence of the evil dragon's blood, these dragon-blooded creatures have all lost most of their intelligence, becoming nothing more than dragon beasts that follow their instincts and act solely according to the will of their bloodline's source.

Fortunately, because Yang and Yukino were imbued with Bai Zhe's aura, they became Bai Zhe's dragon consorts in the eyes of these dragon-blooded creatures, thus gaining a certain degree of command over these dragon beasts.

In the backyard of the Yukinoshita family, on the glass-like ground that shimmered with a color not belonging to this world, those terrifying monsters lay prone on the ground, not daring to look up, as if they were afraid of something.

Because standing in the corridor is the very source of their fear and bloodline, an evil dragon yearning to seize all the world's treasures and indulging in a golden dream!

Before the evil dragon, the favored dragon queen was counting their numbers.

"One, two, three... ten... twenty-one... thirty-three."

After counting the number of dragon beasts, Yukino Yukinoshita turned around and reported to Shiratsu: "Tetsu-kun, there are a total of thirty-three dragon beasts transformed from dragon blood."

While enjoying the fruit pieces being fed to him by the beautiful Yukino Haruno on her lap, Shirotsu said regretfully as he chewed:

"Only thirty-three? That's far too few."

However, upon hearing this, Yukinoshita Haruno had a different opinion from Hakutetsu.

"This conversion efficiency is already good enough. I remember that Mom bought a total of 326 hunting dogs. Do you really think that these mortals can withstand the dragon blood from mythology?"

In her view, even a single transformed dragon beast would require a special assault force from Japan, with at least thirty people and their firepower, to completely kill it.

If all thirty of them were to be deployed in a full group, it would be no less than a small-scale war. Ordinary people would only be slaughtered in the face of these dragon beasts!

Most importantly, these dragon beasts were created by Bai Zhe using only a single drop of blood, diluted from it, making them extremely terrifying to humans.

However, Bai Zhe was not very satisfied with this creature.

The dragon beasts crawling on the ground below seemed to sense the dissatisfaction of their bloodline source.

They all transformed into aggrieved family dogs after being scolded by their owners. To Bai Zhe's slightly surprised gaze, they shrunk to the size of ordinary dogs, crawling on the ground and whimpering sadly.

This strange change made Yukino look at Bai Zhe and then at the wailing dragon beasts with a rather odd expression.

Then, Bai Zhe, who had been gazing at the azure sky beyond the eaves, suddenly spoke up: "The guard dogs on the ground should create those in the sky."

Subsequently, Bai Zhe had Xue Mu buy back hundreds of pigeons, intending to replicate the process and create a dragon beast that would wreak havoc on the sky.

However, the reality is regrettable. Among animals, even canines, which are considered to have spirituality, could not withstand the diluted blood of the evil dragon, and only one in ten survived in the course of evolution.

Not to mention the pigeons, which are even more clumsy in their intelligence.

Of the hundreds of pigeons, only one evolved into a feathered dragon beast, as tall as a human with a wingspan of five meters, capable of breathing fire and resembling both a bird and a pterosaur, under the influence of the evil dragon's blood.

Unfortunately, even though this feathered dragon has an aerial advantage, it is more dull-witted than the dog-dragon. Unless it receives an order from its bloodline source, it is not very threatening to humans.
