Chereads / Demon lord of Zero (Fanfic version) / Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 Putting nobles in their place

Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 Putting nobles in their place

------------------Rem's POV hours before --------------

"What do you mean you have to do this ?" Rem said angry at the situation Siesta described to her

"As a commoner it's our duty to obey the nobles." Siesta said trying to hide the sadness in her voice

And it was true a servent who disobeyed had a horrible future ahead, it was just the way things went no matter where you lived in this world

"But their has to be something we could do." Shera said with determination, remembering how she was almost forced to do the same unspeakable things with her now deceased brother

"No...there isn't, I must go now." Siesta said this and left looking down at the floor

------------------------Diablo's POV---------------------------

I had found out an arrogant scumbag noble has come to further enslave someone I found

important

I want to get involved but I don't want to cause trouble for Louise, this guy is the royal messenger and he's arrogant too

But he has a weakness

Apparently he's after the Zerbst family heirloom

'I'll try this peacefully at first, since every time I have to deal with someone important things tend to go left.'

I tell myself this but seriously what noble would give anything... especially something passed down from generation to generation

but still, I'll try to manage something....(sigh)

-----------------------Kirche's room-----------------------

"Hello darling what brings you here this late are you feeling lonely tonight." Kirche said

"No, I wasn't I wanted to see your family heirloom"Diablo said bluntly

"Aah,the book of summoned, hmm." Kirche said

"To get that useful maid from that useless messenger." Diablo

"Oh, you mean that, hm yes I don't think I need this very much but in only going to give it to you if you go out with me." Kirche said trying to take advantage of the situation

"No I'm not going to sell myself." Diablo

Afterwards Kirche offered a whole bunch of stuff to give to me everything from jewelry to salamander tears... I rejected all offers

"What is the family heirloom that he's so desperate for anyways, whats so good about it." Diablo

"It was summoned with the original Gandalfer

the hero of a void mage, but I don't think it's very useful anyways, here take a look." Kirche said slightly blushing

Going into a dresser to get a key she unlocked a chest, within that chest there was a book with another lock and book cover on it and a key she also pulled out from the chest

Whatever is written in that book must've been seriously important to the Zerbst family.

This could have some sort of ancient spell, or family history secret, she unlocked the book and handed it to me

I opened the book the book starting from the first page, I flipped to the second page and nearly went out of character

"WHAT THE HELL." I said, in my hands I was holding a pornography magazine from my world, what the hell were you doing before you got summoned Gandelfer

"I know right, I cant see why that book of passion is kept." Kirche

(That's it, I'm going to him and I'm going to demand him to deliver that maid to me now !)

I grab derflinger, who tried to reason that everyone can't be saved and that going against a noble in this point of time would cause major complications, but I ignored him this particular noble was going to learn that it wasn't his world today, and he was also going to learn that the world owes him nothing

---------------------------Scene Change-------------------------

Walking up to Mott's house directly from the front I'm stopped by a guard

"Oi, who are you, what are you doing around here at this time of night, if you don't leave now I'll have to arrest you." Guard

I....truly felt sorry for this poor guard, he was just doing his job by stopping me, I mean what I'm doing is an act of trespassing at a noble's residence, either in this world or Shera and Rem's this could automatically get me arrested or even executed !

And this guard was nice enough to give me a chance, I originally was going to incapacitate any guard that stepped in my way but you know what, I'll peacefully make him bring me to his Lord

"Go right ahead, I had the purpose of going to see your Lord anyways." Diablo

------------------------Louise POV--------------------------

Me, Shera, and Rem were all woken up by Kirche and Tabitha who said

Tabitha saw Diablo putting his sword in his magic bag and flying off to in the direction of Captain Mott, did he really think he could win against a noble, I have to save him.

His wives aren't coming I guess they truly believe in him

-------------------------Diablo's POV--------------------------

The guard and another guard brought me directly to Captain Mott, and didn't bother restraining my hands or anything, I guess they figured there was no way a commoner would beat a noble, wait that's it

"I find it hard to believe that a commoner would be snooping around here, so who are you ?A spy from Albion ?"(A/N shout out to Vali)

"Fufufu a spy, no I've come here for one purpose, to bring back that maid that you selfishly took from the academy." Diablo

"WHAT, that is why you have shown up here ?" Mott exclaimed shocked

"Yes, I have a proposal, you and me duel for her." Diablo

"And what would I gain from beating you since I already have Siesta." Mott

I didn't prepare for him to ask that I thought he would be too arrogant to consider losing

"Hmmm, I will give you... this magic pouch." Diablo said while pulling the sword Derflinger out of the pouch

" Magic pouch what is that your obviously a spy !" Mott

" A spy ? I am a Demon Lord from another world I am no spy, I am here to take that woman you forced to come here." Diablo said with a grin

"Forced ! SIESTA come here NOW !" Mott yelled offended by Diablo's accusation

Less than 5 minutes later Siesta showed up trying to mask the grim face she was hiding with calmness, Diablo knew she was trying to hide the face of sadness, because it's the exact same mask he tried to wear back then

"Explain things to this fool !" Mott shouted

"Why are you here Diablo." Siesta

"To bring you back to the academy." Diablo said firmly

"You should leave I'm perfectly fine here." Siesta said with little emotion in her voice

"See she is perfectly happy here, it is an honor for her, it is a commoner's duty to faithfully serve a noble,hehehe hahahahah." Said Mott smugly

Ignoring the laughing idiot in the chair and the guards who were waiting to be given the order to arrest me down given the order I continued to talk with Siesta

"So what ? I didn't ask you if you were happy here, I was simply informing you of my decision." Diablo said

"Huh" Siesta said completely dumbstruck, her entire face changed from calm to confused

( I already told himself that I would never sit back and watch anyone I could call a "companion" be forcefully taken away by anyone ever again even if that person is royalty, nobility or anything)

"Why are you looking confused, what does your or anyone's opinion matter to a Demon Lord especially one who comes from another world." Diablo

"What are you saying, why do you keep saying you're from a different world are you some sort of heretic ?" Mott

At that, Siesta snapped back to her senses and turned to Mott and answered, "He was summoned here from a different world during the summoning ritual."

"Enough talking do you wager the woman for my space element pouch or not." Diablo said making sure to make the pouch sound more appealing

"Space element ?" the guards said with awe

"There is no such thing as space element." Mott said with trying to convince himself more than anyone

"Not in this world of course." Diablo said while pulling out unrecognizable treasure after treasure watching the nobles face light up with interest

"I accept your challenge."The noble said with eyes of hunger
