Gotta Catch A God As My Underling!

At my master’s request, I, Seyi Falt, came to discipline that whale called the evil god Triton in the sea.

Against a whale that could regenerate infinitely, I used an infinite Explosive Potion combo so it would keep exploding forever.

And the result was…

“Sooooorry!!!!!!!!!! Please forgive me already!!!!!!!!!!”

There we were, underwater.

Right in front of us was a giant whale… the evil god Triton.

“What, you’re giving up already?”

“Yes, ma’am, please cut me some slack already…”

Giving up after only about an hour? Pretty spineless for a god.

Triton trembled in front of me like a newborn fawn.

“You don’t have to be that scared.”

“As expected of Master. After pulling off an infinite explosion combo, that line is not exactly easy to say.”

The robo-maid beside me said that with a half-smile.

“You’re making fun of me, aren’t you?”

“Who knooows? Want to ask my body? Shall we have a night battle? Kyah♡ Gosh♡ My body doesn’t come cheap, you know~”

“So, about what we do now.”

“Oh, so you’re ignoring me, is that it? May I shoot?”

Like hell you can.

“My master’s request was to stop the evil god’s rampage, but… what should I do with him?”

The fastest way would be to kill him, but this whale just keeps regenerating forever.

“I absolutely won’t rampage anymore! I promise!”

“Rejected. I can’t trust you.”

“No way…!”

“People don’t change that easily. The ones who say, ‘I made one mistake, I’ll never do it again!’ are the ones who end up repeating the offense.”

“I won’t! I swear! I’ll stay quiet at the bottom of the sea for the rest of my life!”

“I dooon’t believe yooou.”

“No waaay…”

The evil god had a completely hopeless look on his face and was sniveling pathetically.

This guy had zero divine dignity.

“Umm…”

Daphne-chan came up and spoke.

“Somehow… Mr. Whale looks kind of pitiful…”

Cherge let out an exasperated sigh.

“Pitiful? What are you saying, Daphne-sama? This evil god is a criminal who caused harm to the human world. There is absolutely no reason to keep him alive, and as Master’s understanding companion, I know that Master will never forgive him…”

“Yup, then let’s keep him alive!”

“So you’re sparing him after all?!”

Cherge smacked my chest lightly with a pen.

“Well, Daphne-chan said he was pitiful.”

“Yay♡”

“Grrr…” Cherge ground her teeth in frustration.

“…You disregard me, yet you like the slave girls that much? Do you prefer cute, obedient slaves over your longtime partner?”

“Yup.”

“Gah… how depressing. Maybe I should just kill myself like this? Glance glance.”

“Now then, about our plan from here…”

Puffing out her cheeks, Cherge kept lightly smacking my chest over and over.

“What?”

“Maybe I’ll kill myself, hmmm?”

“How?”

“I’ll put a gun to my forehead and bang!”

“Yes, yes. A robot won’t die from that.”

“Master… is… disregarding me… sniff… glance?”

We will ignore the annoying maid.

“So then, Triton. I’ll let you live. Be grateful to Daphne-chan.”

“Wooooooah! Thanks so much, Boss Daphneeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”

What an irritating whale.

Maybe I should turn him into grilled fish. Hm? Are whales fish…? Well, close enough, probably.

“Master, whales are mammals.”

“Oh? Weren’t you about to kill yourself?”

“I decided not to because Master wouldn’t pay attention to me.”

What a needy robo-maid.

“…But Seyi-sama. If we’re not going to kill this evil god, what will we do with him? If he leaves our control, he might rampage again, you know?”

A very reasonable opinion from smart little Zenith-chan.

“Of course. That’s why I’m taking him with us.”

“““‘T-taking him…?’”””

I took a potion out from Cherge’s storage.

“Go! Monster Potion!”

The potion bottle I threw underwater…

did not fly forward.

because of the resistance of the sea.

““““…………….””””

“N-never mind that just now! Cherge! Blast this at him!”

“Certainly☆ As expected, Master really does need this dependable maid☆”

Aaagh! That was embarrassing!

Cherge loaded the potion I made into the launcher and fired it.

When the potion bottle hit the whale…

“M-my body’s shrinkingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!”

In the blink of an eye, the whale shrank and went inside the potion bottle.

“It’s practically a ship in a bottle.”

I said that as I picked up the bottle with the whale inside.

“My lord, what was that just now?”

Toka-chan stared closely at the bottled whale as she asked.

“This is a Monster Potion. It shrinks the creature it hits and traps it inside so you can carry it around.”

“Ohh! That is convenient!”

“It is a potion, not a ball, you know?”

Cherge said something incomprehensible.

“All right then, Daphne-chan. I present this whale-in-a-bottle to you.”

“Waaah! Thank you, Onee-chan!”

If we kept him in this, we could let him out of the bottle and make him fight for us in an emergency.

Zenith-chan could use magic, Toka-chan knew martial arts, the robot could use guns, and Sui-chan could use the power of spirits.

Everyone had some means of self-defense, but Daphne-chan did not have any strength of her own.

So I decided to entrust it to her.

“Well, that wraps everything up. Shall we head back?”

“““Yeah!”””
