I Summoned the Devil to Grant Me a Wish, but I Married Her Instead Since She Was Adorable ~My New Devil Wife~ – Chapter 8 – Chimera

Long ago, monsters ruled over this world, as the frail beings called humans were no match for these strong beings, and lost their place to live.

Humans had intelligence, but that did not make for a very strong weapon back in those days. That was, until a human used said intelligence to summon a devil.

“Kill strong monsters, and turn this world into a place where humans can live.”

He wished, and after a few days, almost all monsters had been exterminated.

Monsters feared even by gods, that were said to have come from hell itself, disappeared from this world, exterminated by one devil.

There were beings that escaped because they were ‘weak’, and Theo and Helvi (the one that carried out that extermination long ago) were facing one, the Chimera.

“Helvi… The Chimera is sleeping, let’s run…!”

Theo whispered with tears forming in his eyes, as he watched the Chimera as it laid in front of them.

It was big even while lying down, probably surpassing ten meters in length, but Helvi showed no fear.

“Hm. It sure is unpleasant to see it still sleeping even when I stand before it. I will awake it.”

“Please don’t…!”

Said Theo, but it was too late.

Helvi suddenly released her bloodlust towards the Chimera.

“…!?”

The Chimera was awakened by Helvi’s bloodlust, and jumped back.

The cave shook as its body hit the ceiling.

“Wawah…!”

“Oops, are you alright?”

Helvi stopped Theo from falling, as the cave shaking made him lose his balance.

Usually, the man would hold the woman and stop her from falling, but in this case it was the opposite.

“T-thank you…”

“Ah…”

“Hum, you can let me go…”

Helvi had her arm around Theo’s waist, and was pulling him closer. She looked down at Theo, and focused her eyes on his lips.

[It was postponed earlier, so now is the time…! No, there would be no elegance if it were done in a place such as this. It has to be somewhere with a better mood…]

There was a conflict inside of her heart, and she held back her desire.

“Yes, be careful.”

“Thank you very much.”

Helvi let go of him, and they watched as the Chimera ran.

“…Helvi, what did you do?”

“I released my bloodlust, but I also set up barriers so it does not escape.”

The Chimera tried to escape by going deeper inside the cave, but was stopped by an invisible wall.

In its frenzy to escape, it tried to hit the ceiling and the walls with its body, but they were also blocked by barriers.

There was no noise when it hit the walls and ceiling, so it looked as though it was doing some sort of strange dance.

“That legendary monster is so desperate to escape… Helvi, you really are strong.”

“I believe I said so earlier, but I am the strongest. It is time to end this.”

Helvi stretched out her right hand, and lightly waved it sideways.

In an instant, the Chimera’s head was separated from its body, but there was no blood, as Helvi made it so it would not come out.

The reason was simple, it would stink.

“W-wow… You defeated the Chimera so easily…!”

Theo’s eyes were wide open, as he looked at the corpse of the Chimera, whose head alone was bigger than him.

Helvi giggled.

“I can do this much before breakfast. Now that I think about it, I have not eaten since coming into this world.”

Ah, I can cook.”

“I see, your cooking does sound delicious. Can you do it once we get back?”

“Of course!”

Theo was excited. Not only was it his first time cooking for someone other than the elderly couple, but it was for his wife.

“What do you like?”

“Let’s see… Meat, and also sweet things.”

“Ah, I like sweet things too! Then I should prepare a dessert!”

“Desert…”

(Theo for desert.. No, stop it.)

Helvi was going to say something, but stopped.

“We should be going back soon. Should we take the entire corpse with us?”

“Yes. I don’t know how to rip materials off an incredible monster like this, so we should take it back as is.”

“Alright, that will be simple.”

Theo seemed concerned, but the Chimera’s head and body simply started levitating.

To show how easy it was to carry it, Helvi moved her finger around, and the Chimera’s corpse followed its movements in the air.

“Ohh, amazing!”

“See, this is simple. Let us go back.”

“Yes!”

And then, they left the cave behind and returned to town.
