Chapter 2

Genko's Pov

Staring at the massive medieval structure in front of me I couldn't help but be amazed.

'No matter how many times I've see it, it still seems unreal'

I thought to myself staring at the entrance to the Monster lord's castle. After exacting my revenge on Rin ( hehehe) , Tamamo teleported us to Hellgondo to take care of some business of some sort, when I was once again enraptured by the magnificent structure that is the Monster lord's castle.

'Although it is kinda dark' I thought with a sweatdrop seeing skeletal corpses laid about the ground. I looked down at a skull and idly prodded it with my foot.

'But since its the Lord of all monsters castle I guess its accurate.'

" Genko! Stop day dreaming and hurry up! "

I looked up to see Tamamo halfway to in entrance shouting at me.

"Coming!" I shouted back and began jogging to catch up.

If you thought the outside of the castle was interesting, the inside is ...rather lackluster in comparison. It was mostly comprised of long marble columns that where just about every where, and the walls and floor was made up of bricks. All of which painted a kinda dull bluish gray and reflected the light well. Everything kinda looked the same. However it was HUGE. I couldn't even begin to count the number of hallways, rooms, stairs and oddly enough... Kitchens...

'Good old Alice' I sweatdropped. 'Been doing that a lot lately.' I mused to myself as Tamamo and I continued to walk until we reached a large room with many different paths

It was then I began to smell a peculiar scent that reminded me vaguely of lavender. 'HuhI it smells nic-wait, oh no...' Dread began to fill my veins as I thought about who exactly that scent belong to.

"Fufufufu.."

The giggle that resounded in the room confirmed my fears. I gulped, looking around hoping to find her before she found me.., when a pair of arms snaked around my waist and two plush mountains where shoved in the back of my head.

I froze clinging to the fleeting hope that its not who I think it was.

"Gen-chan~" An velvety inciting voice sung out from behind me, and that hope was firmly burned to the ground.

"A-Alma!" I choked out and quickly hoped away from her grip.

I looked back at the woman with long purple hair framing an undeniably beautiful face, alluring ruby eyes that shone with a mischievous glint and a playful smile upon her lips. She wore only a dark purple cape and matching leotard that hugged her voluptuous hourglass figure quite nicely, as well as barely covering her extraordinary assets. She looked completely human except for the pair of horns on her head, pink bat-like wings on her back, and a strangely shaped tail of the same color. She also possessed

A intricate red tattoo on her left breast. This woman is Alma Elma, the heavenly knight of wind, and the queen of the succubus.

She terrifies me. Why? Because she was quite adamant in 'playing' games with me since I was a kid that always left me feeling horribly violated. I shuddered just thinking back on those memories.

" Hello! How is my cute little Gen-chan?" Alma spoke her voice as charming as ever. I shuddered. "Its been so long since I've seen you. Its like your avoiding me or something."

"No of course not! Im not avoiding you on purpose, I've just been busy is all..haha..." I lied with a nervous laugh. I been avoiding you like the plague you shape shifting rapist. I'd tell her that but she'd probably take it as a compliments.

"Oh! Well that's good! Then we can play like we did before! Gotta make up for the time we been apart right!?" Alma beamed, clearly enjoying my reactions.

" Oh!.. Um.. I-I would like to but.. Im.., Busy! Yeah! I'm accompanying Tamamo on an important mission and don't have time to play right now!" I lied once again while putting distance between us.

" Hmm? Oh thats fine, Genko you can play with Alma if you wish." Tamamo, who had been watching the exchange with amused eyes, suddenly spoke causing my face to pale.

" Really! Great! Now we can play! I've been meaning to try out a new trick with my tail!" Alma exclaimed. My face paled even more

" NOOOO!" I turned to flee when suddenly Alma was there, a lustful glint in her eyes and a evil grin on her face. She quickly took me into hug, crashing her breast against my face, suffocating the life out of me.

" Come now Genko lets have some fun.." Alma cooed while her hands started to roam my shivering body.

" Mmnph! T-mm-a-mmpph-amo! H-elp M-me-mmph!" I plead through my suffocation.

" hehehe..." Tamamo chuckled at my predicament, before finally helping me. "Alma, as amusing as this is, I would appreciate it if you stopped molesting my daughter."

" sigh... Fine... " Alma sighed over exaggeratedly and released me from my fleshy imprisonment.

"Ha..ha..ha..ha..." I took in sweet gulps of air, my face flushed from lack of oxygen and embarrassment .

" Come along Genko." Tamamo spoke while walking down one of the paths leading to Alice's throne. I quickly followed suit after gathering myself, but was stopped when Alma called out to me.

" Alright, I'll let you go for now, but next time Tamamo won't be able to save you~" She gave me a sultry wink, then walked away swaying her hips before disappearing in a gale of wind.

I promptly turned and followed Tamamo down the path, determined to stick to her like glue to avoid becoming Alma's plaything.

'No way in hell am I going through that again if I can help it' I encouraged myself mentally. Then a ghost of a giggle tickled my ears making me shiver and I practically dash to Tamamo's side.

'Scary...'

When we entered Alice throne room, I expected to see her lazing about stuffing her face as she usually does, but instead...

"Alipheese?" Tamamo called put to the empty chamber, a puzzled look upon her features.

'Huh she's not here, probably in the kitchen gorging on the castle's food supply' I thought to myself, my eyes sweeping around the room, until landing on the throne.

'Hmm? What's this?'

Tamamo's Pov

'Hmm, this is peculiar indeed. Where could that girl be?' I pondered to myself. There are only a few places that she would be within the castle. On her throne eating, in the kitchen dinning, or on a rare occasion, on the balcony feasting. However, I sniffed to check all of these places and could not find nothing, except here in the throne room, where her scent is the most potent.

'Still she is no where to be found.' Either she's hiding or I overlooked something.

'Honestly, she picks the most opportune time to disappear.' I huffed a bit in indignation.

'I need to address the issue concerning the rise in tensions between the humans and monsters. I fear it will escalate if something is not done.'

" Tanamo! I found something!"

I looked over to the direction of the voice to find Genko holding something near the throne.

"What is it?" I inquired walking up to my her.

"It looks like some kind of note." Genko held it up for me to see.

"A note huh? Let me see it." I took note out of her outstretched hand and scanned through the contents.

"..."

...Sigh...

'...unbelievable. Honestly kids these day don't know the importance of responsibility.'

Genko's Pov

Looking over at Tamamo to see her sigh and struggling to resist the urge to facepalm, I became even more curious of what was written on the note I found.

"Tamamo? What's the matter? Whats on the note?" I decided to ask her.

She tiredly turned towards me with a flat look and wordlessly handed me the note.

"Dear, Whoever finds this, I couldn't care less who you are.

A startling revelation has come to my attention. I dreamed that this day would never come to be but, alas it is upon us. I...have eaten every type of food on Hellgondo. I know this is shocking, believe me I nearly wept when I came across this discovery. However rejoice! As I have found a way to remedy this situation. I will be leaving Hellgondo to taste the various cuisine all around the world all while expanding my culinary pallet to new heights! With that said, I leave you with my first order as the Monster lord. "Only act against humans in the name of self-defense." That is all.

Sincerely, Alipheese Fateburn XVI"

"..."

"Pffft!" I laughed out loud holding my sides.

"..Sigh..." Tamamo pinched the bridge of her nose. Feeling a headache coming on.

"It seems Alipheese has taken it upon herself to pursue... consuming food as a traveling gourmet, rather than rule over her subjects as the monster lord."

"Hahahahaha!" I was on the floor at this point.

" Now I'll have to take care of everything myself, Granberia is too much of a battle nut, Eurbetie is too vengeful, and Alma... is Alma." Tamamo walked out of the throne room grumbling to herself, leaving me on the floor clutching my sides, roaring with laughter.
