"Mm-hm, this'll do for now! I'll add more later!"

I looked at the page I had been writing on, smiling a smile of satisfaction.

I placed the page into my desk drawer and took a breath. I had listed some of the most common monster girls in anime that I thought what be a good start for my... we'll talk about that later.

"Are you alright with me adding you, Athena?" 

She didn't reply, obviously.

I was looking toward my bed, where the sleeping Athena laid her unconscious body. It had been a day now since she had gone comatose and like she would've wanted, I was working. Earlier today, I went into town and when the townsfolk got a glimpse of me, they all fell to their knees and began to worship me as if I were a god!

Apparently, Maltroth had spread the word of my existence to the entirety of the town. They, of course, believed him immediately since they saw what I had done to him. I turned his body's clock back thirty years, making him a thirty year old man once again. I got a lot praise from people and... I decided to show a little more of my power, and by doing that, I increased the level of trust the town had with me.

First: I wiped every disease out of that town. All the sick people with any type of disease, I could freeze the disease within their bodies, prevent its spread and putting a halt to the effects it had on that person using level nine magic. I even setback the life-clocks of a few of the elderly on the verge of death! I had this town's complete trust now. If I told them to jump into the depths of Hell, they'll do it. Loch has completely given me their allegiance. I guess I was wrong about this whole Demon King thing. The humans here would easily pledge themselves to me if I showed them all the good I could do for them, instead of showing them all the bad I could do to them. I guess I should just start going to towns and start showing off.

Anyway, after I was done shaking hands and kissing babies like a sleazy politician, I headed to the blacksmith of Loch with some precious metal for her. I wanted her to make me a custom sword, one fit for a king, such as me! I gave her a few ores called Lilite. Which is a very strong metal that is considered to be the strongest metal in all of... shit, I need to find out the name of this world. Anyway, the blacksmith was astounded to see that I had collected the precious purple ore. Well, it's not that hard to get when you have an enslaved nest of wendigos mining for twelve hours straight every day. I guess I really am a monster since I don't provide dental, either.

I got up from my desk and walked over to the bed, where Athena laid peacefully.

"You know, you gotta wake up soon, Athena. It's been a whole day since I've heard one of your self-esteem killing comments." I chuckled as I rubbed her head.

My eyes caught my grandmother's necklace around her neck once again. It glimmered as I smiled sweetly at it.

When she wakes up; we're going to have a nice talk on our relationship. I'll even show her the checklist, just so she knows~

I was mostly trying to draw out a mean comment from her by doing that because... um... I'm not a masochist, okay? But, sometimes... I get a little jolt of pleasure from when she insulted me, depending on what she was saying, that is. 

"Ahem. Tatsuo."

My head turned to my left, where I saw Lilith standing at the end of the bed in front of a portal. The portal closed as I replied.
