Reincarnated as a Blood Demon on Terra? I've Hit the Jackpot!

Chapter 24: (RBT) Chapter 24: Ermengarde: Eek! I won the prize!



Since Lucifer subscribed to the religion of laziness and firmly believed in the principle of "Why do it yourself when you have lackeys?", the meals for the trio of master and disciples during this period became Manfred's responsibility.

Not to mention that useless scum Blood Demon who didn't act like a proper person, the fact that Ascalon could merely grill meat until it was cooked was already the extent of her life's skills. For these reasons, Manfred was the best choice for the position of house-husband.

And he truly did show a special talent in this area. Although he couldn't be compared to a three-Michelin-star chef from his hometown or cook a luxurious, full-course royal meal, he could still whip up common household stir-fries with ease... If Manfred were to wear a red apron and a headband, he could truly be a grassroots "Dragon Chef Boy" in the physical sense.

This life of being used as a cook three days a week made Malfred begin to wonder if he had been tricked by Teresa and Lucifer into being a nanny.

Fortunately, Lucifer was not a slacking envoy. He quickly used action to dispel Malfred's doubts.

"Too slow! Too easy to read! You have to change your tactics to be better!"

"Yes, sir!!"

Facing Malfred's attack aimed at his lower body, Lucifer took a step back to dodge the blade's edge at the perfect distance, then stepped on Malfred's sword blade, pinning it firmly to the ground.

Ascalon took the opportunity to dash behind Lucifer, aiming for the back of his neck, and launched her attack.

"Useless!"

But perhaps because her previous attacks had all failed, Ascalon was starting to get impatient, thinking only of how to win.

Ting!

Lucifer raised his tachi behind him, accurately blocking Ascalon's surprise attack. Then, seizing the opportunity while Ascalon's recovery frames were not yet over, he turned and punched her squarely in the kidney (he really holds a grudge), sending her flying.

In the blink of an eye, the tip of Lucifer's sword was already at Manfred's brow, decisively declaring the winner of this sparring match.

"We can't beat you at all…"

"Wrong… it's because you have a sword of kindness, little Man." Lucifer sheathed his tachi and, transforming into an expert critic, began to critique Malfred. "In your subconscious, you don't want to hurt me, so every time you strike, there is hesitation—when the heart is in chaos… the blade becomes dull."

Even though he knew that Lucifer's life force and regenerative ability as a Blood Demon Prince were extremely strong, and he might not die even if cut in half, for a moment Malfred still couldn't cross the wall called "morality."

"…I will try to improve, sir!"

At that moment, Ascalon walked over slowly, clutching her waist. Lucifer's punch just now, although not delivered with much force, still caused her a fair amount of pain. But Ascalon had no complaints. As long as she could gain experience and power, any amount of pain was worth it. Besides, even a broken bone was just a small wound for a Sarkaz; after two days of rest, she could be back to jumping around as usual.

"Ascalon… you're just too hasty. If you can't one-shot them in a combo, you have to memorize the patterns. Play a few rounds of Sekiro and Dark Souls, and you'll get it."

Ascalon didn't understand the latter half of the sentence, but she understood Lucifer's meaning… before, she lacked the condition and ability to fight a prolonged battle with creatures in the wilderness, but now, things were different.

"I will surely apply this next time, Teacher!"

"Okay, Retsu Kaioh… now then, let's go welcome our new guest!" Lucifer turned to look at the figure who had been leaning against a dry tree, watching them with an OMO face for a long time.

"Warfarin… since when were you here?"

"Since you said his attack was too easy to read…" Warfarin folded her arms, observing Ascalon and Malfred with great interest.

"Are these your two disciples? They seem quite lively."

"And how did you know?" Lucifer was a little surprised. Why does it feel like everyone knows I'm babysitting now?

"Don't underestimate my information network." Warfarin placed her hands on her hips, striking a majestic pose. But with her height of barely 160 centimeters, she was perhaps the most harmless person Lucifer knew.

Ascalon, with her radar activated, was also scrutinizing Warfarin. Although she also had a scent of blood, it was not as strong and rich as Lucifer's or the Blood Demon Overlord's. If she wasn't just pretending to be weak, then she felt she could even take Warfarin on. Thus, she spoke up.

"Are you very close with Teacher?"

"Of course! Besides the Blood Demon Overlord, I'm the one who's known this guy the longest." Warfarin tossed her silver hair and leaned against Lucifer, as if the words coming out of her mouth were a very big deal.

"…Then why are you so weak?"

"Hmm? This little brat… are you looking down on me?" Warfarin's unfriendly gaze instantly locked onto Ascalon. And Ascalon's gaze grew increasingly dangerous. She was displeased that someone as weak as Warfarin could act so intimately with her teacher, Lucifer.

Seeing that the two were about to start pulling each other's hair, Lucifer used the hilt of his sword to push Ascalon's shoulder. "Have you forgotten my teachings so quickly? You don't see this teacher in your eyes at all, do you?"

"…My apologies, sir." Ascalon lowered her head, not daring to defy Lucifer's teachings. But hearing Ascalon's soft and sweet apology, Lucifer instantly felt a sense of satisfaction.

"But on the other hand… sometimes, a teacher has to be lenient with their student. So, why don't you try slapping this woman's face a few times?"

"Huh!! Lucifer, aren't you changing your mind too quickly?! I never thought you'd be willing to hurt me for this kid!" Looking at Warfarin's pitiful, teary-eyed expression, Ascalon found she couldn't bring herself to do it… It wasn't that she felt pity, but she was afraid that hitting Warfarin would dirty her own hands.

"..." Malfred, watching this soap opera unfold, simply looked up at the sky in silence… Was coming here really the right decision?

Cut to another side… Ermengarde was facing her own ordeal.

"Sigh… Leithania is so restless. And my teacher just keeps exploiting a good student like me. If I had known, I would have stayed with Lucifer a little longer." Ermengarde, who had just returned to Leithania, was swamped with work. Furthermore, Fleamont would often force her to work for several more hours with the phrase "there's just one more thing."

Walking on the deserted streets of Leithania, she let out a long sigh… It would have been nice if Lucifer had come back with me. At least I would have had a friend. As she was thinking this, she happened to see a lottery shop.

"...Let's go… I'll just go in and have a look." As if an idea had struck her, Ermengarde walked in resolutely. Before long… a cry of surprise was heard from inside.

"I won?!"

Ermengarde's eyes were filled with disbelief. Although the prize money wasn't much, only a few tens of thousands, a win was a win. An image of Lucifer suddenly appeared in her mind.

Lucifer… you really are a Cyclops!!
