Chapter 377: CH. 386: Aftermath
Nobody cheered or even uttered a word after the battle ended. Asahi flew into the VIP section, where his lovers cheered for him.
"At least some people find my victory exciting." Asahi looked at Freya. "You lost."
"I did." Freya grinned, not caring about her loss at all. "What do you plan to do with this maid now?"
"I don't know."
He threw that condition to humiliate Freya, but she turned out to be a shameless woman. It wasn't like he needed any maid. Rini, Grayfia, Ray, and part-time maid Rika were more than enough to satisfy his maid fetish.
(Aren't you excited to have a goddess of beauty as your maid?)
'Kinda. I'll have her swear an oath like Apollo.'
Freya bowed her head. "Can I go talk to my children?"
"Sure."
Two presences approached him from behind. A tanned woman who boasted features of the Far East. A jet-black eyepatch covered her left eye whereas Hephaestus' eyepatch covered her right eye.
"I am Tsubaki Collbrande!" She introduced herself with a beaming smile and approached him with her arms outstretched. "Come here."
Since he wasn't the type to refuse, he also stretched his arms for her. She grinned and walked into his arms with the sweet scent of fire and slightly sour scent of steel.
'A blacksmith.'
She touched his chest without a care in the world and hugged him tightly. "Gosh, You're warmer than my go-to-cuddle-mate. How did you build up these muscles?"
"Took me a hundred sit-ups, a hundred pushups, a hundred squats, and a ten kilometers sprint every day for three years."
"Sounds like a pain," Tsubaki remarked before stepping back. "Asahi, can I see your spear?"
"Asahi, don't indulge her," Hephaestus said with a sigh.
"It's okay." Asahi certainly enjoyed her massive tits being squeezed with the hug. "Which one? My spear or Leonidas Spear?"
"Aren't they the same?"
"Well, Leonidas one it is."
Asahi wasn't going to show the other one to a woman he just met even if she was a stunner.
Asahi pulled out the Spear of Leonidas from his ring.
"Magic storage?" Tsubaki's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Can I get it? Please tell me, O Almighty Demon King!"
"Eh, it's a trade secret."
"Every secret has a prize," Tsubaki cackled, her twin mounds bouncing somewhat stiffly within their cloth restraint. "Call yours."
"Tsubaki," Hephaestus grabbed Tsubaki's shoulders from behind. "It's rude to ask someone to reveal their industry secret."
"I'm giving a price though."
"I'll get one for you, Tsubaki," Asahi intervened before the drama escalated further. "I have enough for everyone."
Tsubaki grinned. "Thanks!"
"My Lord."
As Grayfia slipped into his arms, he watched as Freya followed the Gulliver Brothers dragging Ottar and the dark elf. A look of fear was apparent on the deities' face as they all gazed in his direction.
'Should be enough to scare them off.'
If someone still had the courage to bother his Familia with political schemes, he was more than ready to send them to the Underworld.

Loki and her Familia had watched the entire War Game from their houses. Asahi's victory was anticlimactic, still, Ais seemed the happiest of the bunch.
"They picked a wrong fight," Riveria said calmly. "Still Ottar… I feel bad for him. He was bravely fighting for his goddess."
Riveria and everyone in the room were aware of the War Game conditions unlike the normal people.
'The playboy gets another woman…' Riveria sighed, finding her teacher's behaviour too chaotic. 'He will come for me too…'
"Why the sad face, princess?" Loki poked Riveria's cheeks. "Something eating yer mind?"
"Just wondering about the aftermath," Riveria replied with a frown. "Goddess Astraea now owns the top spot in Orario. What kind of changes will it bring?"
Loki leaned her weight on the chair and propped her legs on the table. "Too many to count."
Ais suddenly stood up. "I'm going to meet Onii-san."
She darted out of the room after informing them of her decision.
"Loki?" Riveria noticed Loki in a daze and touched her forehead. "It's not a fever, I assume. Why have you been strange recently?"
"I dunno, girl." She just felt a bit wobbly at the thought of meeting Asahi again. It couldn't be a major problem. "Jeez, I'm gettin' so moody."
"Exactly. It happened after you spent a night in Folkvangr. Something happened over there?"
Loki recalled the night with Asahi and nodded her head. "I think I became a mortal."
"What does that mean?"
"I dunno." I might be in love." Loki scratched her head. "Ya probably don't know what I feel."
Riveria held up her hand. "Stop just for a second. Are you talking about Asahi?"
"Yeah. He got me wrapped around his fingers."
"You do know he has many lovers."
"I'm still considerin' this, okay?" Loki picked up her booze and walked away, waving her hand. "Wake me up if Asahi drops by."
