Chereads / Demon lord of Zero (Fanfic version) / Chapter 31 - Dog's bite

Chapter 31 - Dog's bite

The guards moved to the side

"Oh wow." A guard said

"The lewdness ! How shameless !" Another guard

Diablo and Henrietta made it pass the guards and headed to a local inn

Scene change

The two got a room together, the room was small, with a window opposite of the door

A bed, and a table and chair

"Hey Diablo." Henrietta

"Yes ?" Diablo said looking up from the ground to her from the chair

"Do you have any clothes that commoners wear ?" Henrietta

"Maybe, I'll check my magical bag." Diablo

(I have some of Shera's clothes, but they may be too eye catching as bright green; But I doubt she could fit Rem's.

Siesta's clothes are all at home. I'll just let her decide) Diablo thought pulling out some clothes from his pouch

All of Shera's clothes were a mixture of dark and light green blouses and dresses

All of Rem's clothes were either black or white shirts or skirts

"Your options are these." Diablo said looking up at Henrietta again, only to see her naked back

And a very good view of side boob

Diablo's face turned red

(D-Does she know I could see her...I SHOULD COVER MY EYES !) Diablo thought putting his hand over his eyes and turning his head

Diablo could feel his heart racing.

Without thinking Diablo peeked a little through his fingers

His face went redder

Diablo gasped

Something was rising, and it wasn't the shield hero

Henrietta stared at the clothes for a few seconds before saying

"You have a lot of their clothes, you must really take care of your wives." She said blushing

"No, my Wives take care of me more." Diablo said with his cheeks slightly red

Henrietta picked up Rem's spare school uniform shirt, a white blouse, and squeezed it on

Her big breast shakes and jiggled as she got it on

And still a lot of cleavage could be seen

(It is as I thought, it barely fits.) Diablo thought

Scene change

The rain turned into a thunderstorm

Agnes was at the door of the noble Lishman's house

She knocked on the door

"Open up, this is the captain of the musketeer squad Agnes, its an emergency." Agnes

The door was opened for her

In the living room

The room was very large, their was a small table with fancy candle burning

The door in the distance behind her, a large window to her far left

Agnes stated into the lit fireplace, the reflection burned orange and red into her blue-green eyes

Thunder boomed

"It must be quite the emergency for you to show up at the chairman of legal affairs house." Lishman said in a gruff voice walking into the room

His cane in hand

"The princess has been kidnapped." Agnes said looking down to the floor

Some nobles liked for the commoners to do this, but for Agnes it was perfect so nobles would have a harder time trying to read her

"What ? A similar occurrence like this happened just the other day.

Is the musketeer squad only for display of incompetence ?" Lishman said pounding his fist on the table

"We are searching for her majesty in order to not present ourselves as such. We just need you to sign a document; The document will close off all entries, exits and ports." Agnes said with her eyes closed, head still down

Lishman lifted his cane and pointed at Agnes

the cane glowed a pale blue

A sharp pointed pen behind Agnes hanging on the wall glowed the same color and shot at Agnes's ear

Agnes moved her head and the pen flew to Lishman's hand

Lishman reached into the drawer of the table and pulled out a piece of paper

He wrote on it and gave it to Agnes

"Search for the princess with everything you got. If you can't find her, by the name of legal affairs, I'll have you all." Lishman

"Yessir !" Agnes

Agnes took the paper and walked passed Lishman

Lishman poured himself a drink that was on the table

Right as Agnes was near the door frame she stopped

"Sir ?" Agnes

"What ?" Lishman said looking up at her back

"I'm researching a case regarding the Protestants. I heard that you were involved in that case twenty years ago.

You were the one who proposed the massacre of Dungletale." Agnes

"Massacre ? Don't make me the villian here. The people in the village were planning to overturn the country.

It was a justified mission of suppression." Lishman

"Suppression. I see.

I'm searching for records of that instance.

You would know who the captain of that mission was, wouldn't you ?" Agnes asked turning around seemingly peering into Lishman

Thunder boomed again and both of their faces lit up from the flash of lightning

"I don't remember such a thing. Rather than what happened twenty years ago, shouldn't you prioritize the search for the princess ?" Lishman asked taking a drink from his cup

Agnes continued to stare, but then cracked a smile at Lishman

She turned around, walked out, and said

"Sorry to bother you Chairman." Agnes

Agnes stated at her figure walking out of the room

Thunder boomed one last time

Back in the inn

Diablo and Henrietta moved a little bit closer

Henrietta sat there holding herself with a red face

"Are you okay ?" Diablo said in his tough guy voice

"I'm cold, could you.....hold my shoulders ?" Henrietta asked blushing

(Is.....is she really sure about this....I mean she is royalty. Well Shera is also royalty, so this shouldn't be any different right ?) Diablo said getting hotter and hotter

He walked up to her, sat down next to her with his right hand and touched her left shoulder

(She feels as cold as ice.) Diablo thought

Diablo embraced her and activated some magic

Red magic circles formed and Henrietta could feel herself warming up

Henrietta smiled and embraced Diablo harder

Footsteps were heard from the hall, someone knocked on the door really hard

"Open up, we are from the castle ! This is an emergency !" A guard shouted while knocking and twisting the door handle

The two popped up as if being caught in the act of something they weren't supposed to be doing

"Henrietta." Diablo said

Henrietta turned to him with a face of determination

"We have no choice !" Henrietta

"We will use force to come in if we have to !" The guard said and kept knocking and twisting the door handle

"What do you me-" Diablo was trying to say before Henrietta pounced on him and kissed him in the mouth again

The door bursted open and several knights entered the room

What they seen was a girl with a ponytail with some of her breast showing over a guy

They all blushed and the leading knight stammered

"Forget it, let's move out from here." Guard

Back at Lishman's estate

A person covered in dingy green top with a good over his face, on top of a horse was talking to Lishman in front of his door

They nodded at each other one last time, and the man rode off on his horse

He sped off on the main passage way and took a left

Agnes was waiting from the right around the corner

Scene change

Agnes followed the suspicious person all the way to the Charming fairy inn

The man went up the stairs of the bar to the inn rooms

He took his hood off and exposed his ugly face

He had green hair with a green bang on his broad forehead

Agnes started to follow, she crept behind the man, careful to avoid others and not attract attention

"Agnes !"

Agnes flinched at the loud utter of her name and turned around

She turned to the source of the voice and seen Louise in a cute maid costume

"What are you doing here ? Does it have to do with Diablo and I being here on standby ?" Louise said not being quiet at all

"Shhh !" Agnes said signaling with her index finger over her lips

"What's going on." Louise said in a loud voice not taking the hint

Agnes put her hand over her mouth and said

"Be quiet and follow me !" Agnes, now letting her hands off of the struggling pink haired idiot's mouth and pulling her arms up the stairs

"Why !? Where are we going ?!" Louise said trying to break free

The suspicious man knocked on the first door to the left and a man with a skull cap and a big moustache came out

He was at least 40 years old

"The master will be waiting in the usual theatre. Apparently the princess has been kidnapped." The suspicious person

"Ga- !" Louise started to shout something at the words "The princess has been kidnapped." But Agnes covered her mouth again

This time the green haired suspicious man heard this and came around the corner

What he seen was Louise and Agnes.... making out

His faced became rosey for a second

"Hmph !" He said turning his nose up at the sight of them and walking past

He left out the place and got back on his horse

Agnes bursted through the door after him, along with Louise

"What was that about !?" Louise said blushing and grabbing Agnes

"It was for the mission !" Agnes also blushing

"What mission !?" Louise

Scene change

Diablo was shamelessly in bed with Henrietta, Rem definitely would not approve of this

They both had their backs facing each other

Rem doesn't really approve of Henrietta in the first place, she finds her.... lacking in all areas except for her body

They both had their eyes closed

"Princess.....What is the reason for doing this ?" Diablo

"In order to lure out a traitor, we issued a false emergency stating that I went missing.

However they're unlikely to fall for such misinformation so easily. So I seriously ran as hard as I could." Henrietta

"You actually ran ! What if something had happened to you." Diablo said sitting up and looking at Henrietta

"That's why I wanted you to be my bodyguard. I wanted you to protect me.....Like you do your wives." Henrietta said

Unknown to Diablo she was blushing furiously

"So you had to trick me too huh ?" Diablo

"Sorry." Henrietta said also sitting up

"Isn't there a saying about deceiving the ally before the enemy ?" Henrietta said with a smile

"I see....." Diablo

(That is so uncool ! What type of demon lord gets tricked by the princess ! I'm supposed to do all of the tricking !) Diablo mentally screamed

"It's time. Let us go again." Henrietta said and stood up

Diablo looked up at her

"Huh, where ?" Diablo

"To the theater." Henrietta

Back outside of the Charming fairy inn

Agnes was on her horse answering Louise's many questions

"So Diablo is with her majesty ?" Louise

"Yes, we needed Diablo to be her highness's bodyguard." Agnes

"What ?! Was I just an extra then ?" Louise said pouting

Agnes made a troubled smile

"Well, that's...." In truth the only reason Louise was needed was to get in contact with Diablo since no one else could

Of course there was Siesta, Shera and Rem, but Rem hasn't been seen in a while; Shera

was with Diablo at the time when the mission was gave out and Siesta couldn't use magic

(As far as they knew) so she would have to walk all the way to Diablo's unknown hideout

The mansion given to Diablo was only meant for his Siesta's family apparently so the sliver of hope for keeping tabs on Diablo through spying on his home was not there.

Plus for whatever reason, the spies Agnes sent couldn't even see the estate since it was bought. It's been spy proofed using some sort of magic

And the spies are constantly being discovered by Rem's summoned birds

Diablo had been a pain in Agnes's side

And he threatened to blow the castle up if they were discovered trespassing.

Back into the story

"Anyway, until everything is done, be on standby at the shop." Agnes

"Wait, where are you going ?" Louise

"To the theater. Bye." Agnes said and left on her horse

"Hey ! Agnes...." Louise

"Hey, Louise" Scarron said approaching from behind with a carton of boxes and a lot of workers

Louise felt the chill from creepiness on her spine

"What are you doing the shows going to start." Scarron

Scene change

a foot stepped into a puddle

That foot belonged to Lishman, who grinned and snickered mischievously

Applaud roared in the theater, the hostess started announced the play

Everyone, the next play is a tear-jerker written and performed by the Scarron family

From the distance Diablo was somewhere in front of the hostess, but on a higher level and out of eye sight

He sensed a familiar presence

"Diablo !" Louise

Diablo turned and seen Louise in a made costume

"Hello Louise." Diablo said turning back to the stage

"Aren't you with the Princess ?" Louise

"I was, now she is with Agnes." Diablo

"Agnes....." Louise said looking out at the crowd

"What are you two doing ?" Scarron said

They both had felt chills run up their spines this time

Scarron was behind them in a dress and purple wig

During the play

Scarron and Rachel were both on the stage

Scarron still dressed as a woman, while Rachel still wearing her ivory colored suit and red cape with a sword on his side

With a masculine hair style, long ponytail and a bang partially over her eye

(Even crossdressing she still looks good.) Diablo thought

She was dressed just like a prince really, but it was too easy to tell her gender

The background was a wall with a painted face of a lion and a hole where the mouth is located

"What is this ?" Scarron said gesturing the lion

"This is called the "The liar's mouth."

When a liar puts their hand inside they won't be able to remove it." Jessica

"Oh no, what should I do ?" Scarron said holding his head and swaying side to side

"Why don't you try putting your hand inside." Jessica

"No ! No ! It's too scary !" Scarron

Louise could be seen dressed as a commoner on stage

Scarron tried to get Diablo on stage as a great Dane, but Diablo's inner demon lord has been tested enough today

Demon lords turn people into dogs

In the audience

Lishman was talking to the same man who was wearing a skull cap at the Charming fairy inn

They were sitting side by side, like the best of friends

For namesake we'll call him Mr.Moustache

"So her Highness is missing ?" Mr.Moustache

"Yes, she is still missing." Lishman

"So, now's our chance." Mr.Moustache said with a satisfied smile

"Yes, who knows where she is." Lishman said also with a satisfied smile

"I'm right here." A familiar voice said from behind them

Lishman got up and looked behind and was shocked at who he seen

It was a woman with a hooded top over most of her face. And that woman removed her hood and it turned out to be..... Henrietta (A/N Big shocker. Play that "Dun Dun DUN !!!! music )

who happened to be sitting in the very row behind them.....and also wearing her usual princess clothes and tiara

( A/N Someone should have never been a criminal if they get caught up like this.)

"I overheard everything you said Lishman.

I knew that if I came up missing you would hurry and make contact with the spy.

The more you hurry the more careless you get, even a cautious rat would show it's tail." Henrietta

"I see, your going missing was a trick to lure me out." Lishman

"Exactly." Henrietta said while nodding

Suddenly, a group of at least ten fully armored and equipped female knights sprung up from the ground

(A/N Okay he really should not have been a criminal to be caught up like this, how are you this surrounded in a theater, did you not look behind you once.)

"Lishman, chair president of legal affairs, you are under arrest for treason." Henrietta

"Princess !" Louise shouted in worry

( A/N If not for cannon I wouldn't know how to write for Louise because her speech and actions are so random and weird. I mean who just suddenly shouts someone's name in this situation. The hell be going on with her ? Lol)

"The curtain has dropped, Lishman" Henrietta said trying to sound cool

"Really princess. You're still naive !" Lishman said and raised his arm

Male knights sprung up from the seats in front of Lishman's row

"Protect her Highness." A leading female knight said

"Yessir !" the female knights said

"Kill her Highness." Lishman

"Yessir !" The male knights said

A fight broke out, and Henrietta is just looking at the violence around her

She is scared

Everyone has a partner, Lishman starts to make his escape

"I'm sorry princess !" A big male soldier says and brings his sword in the air above his head

Henrietta wants to scream as he brings it down

She closes her eyes

After a second she hears some unknown old man voice screaming

"Partner, never put me in that bag of infinite darkness again !" Derflinger shouts

"My storage pouch ? That's what's it like in there ?" Diablo asked while easily blocking the man who attempted to kill Henrietta with his right arm

"Diablo !" Henrietta exclaimed with joy

"You saved me." Henrietta said blushing

"Ha ! Don't worry I'll put an end to this nonsense." Diablo said and stuck his left hand out at the man's abdomen

(Air burst)

A gust of wind slammed into the man's stomach and blew him to the ceiling

It was if Diablo had blasted him with a piece of the atmosphere itself

Meanwhile Lishman had made it to the stairs and pushed past Louise

He got to the middle of the stage and activated a trap door

Diablo wasn't worried, because they all knew where that trap door led to....and Lishman had a surprise waiting for him

Diablo put the sharp tip of Derflinger to the floor and a magic circle covered the area

"Multicast ! Arm scrap !" Diablo

All the weapons in the area besides Diablo's crumbled

Everyone went still with confusion

Diablo used the opportunity to knock he remainder of the enemies out with one punch each

Underneath the theater

Lishman thought his escape was assured

He snickered as he walked past a torch

"Why are you laughing Lishman, you can't possibly think your escape will be easy right ?" A voice said

"Who ?" Lishman

Agnes stepped out of the dark

"Do you really think you can arrest me, a commoner like you standing before a noble, I could kill you easily." Lishman said but not daring to raise his cane

"I'm not going to arrest you." Agnes said pulling her gun out and aiming at him

"For the deaths at Dungletale, my home village ." Agnes

"The documents and information your looking for for that event are hidden under the school." Lishman

"Wha-?!" Agnes

"You let your guard down !" Lishman said and swung his staff at Agnes

A torrent of fire surrounded and burned Agnes, she would be ashes

"Ha ha ha ha, I told you. Commone-" Lishman was saying but heard a growl

"GRRRAAAAHHHHH!" Agnes leapt out of the

cloud of flames, covered on tatters and bruises and stabbed Lishman in the chest with her sword

She completely impaled him

"Die ! Die at the hands of a commoner. Die from the bite of a dog !" Agnes
