My Girlfriend Is Stronger Than the Demon Lord – Volume6- 7 (Chapter 6-7)
The coronation resumed—though "resumed" might be the wrong word. Most of the throne room was destroyed, half the floor was gone, and the giant magma throne lay in pieces. Still, the demons insisted the ritual must continue.
The demon priest cleared his throat. "Even if everything is broken, the will of the new Demon Lord must be honored."
Aria groaned. "Can't we at least sweep the floor first?"
"No!" the demons shouted in unison.
"THE NEW DEMON LORD IS TOO POWERFUL FOR CLEANUP!"
Aria covered her face. "Why are they like this…"
Selphira, now patched up and bandaged, knelt before Aria. "I acknowledge your strength. I will serve you… reluctantly."
Aria blinked. "Uh… thanks?"
I whispered, "That's basically her way of saying she won't try to kill you again."
"Comforting," Aria muttered.
The demon priest raised his staff dramatically. "Please step forward for the oath of sovereignty."
Aria turned to me, visibly nervous. "Eren… what if I mess up?"
I smiled. "You literally punched a Demon Lord into a mountain. I think you'll be fine."
Her cheeks reddened. "That was—different."
She stepped into the center of the broken magic circle. Flames rose once more, swirling around her but never burning her—a testament to her divine nature. The demons bowed deeply.
"Aria," the priest declared, "do you accept the mantle of Demon Lord, protector of the realm, ruler of the tribes, keeper of chaos and order?"
Aria hesitated.
She looked at me.
In that moment, her expression softened, calm and gentle—the same look she gave me back in our village, before all this madness began.
"I accept," Aria said quietly. "But I want one condition."
The demons froze.
Aria pointed at me. "Eren stays by my side. No matter what."
A collective gasp shook the room.
The demon priest nodded solemnly. "Then it shall be written. Your consort will be given full royal protections."
I nearly choked. "C-Consort?!"
Aria turned bright red. "Ignore that part!"
The flames surged upward, forming a crown of dark fire that slowly descended onto her head.
When the light faded…
Aria stood tall, radiant, powerful, and undeniably majestic.
The demons roared:
"ALL HAIL DEMON LORD ARIA!"
And just like that, my girlfriend officially became the strongest ruler in the demon realm.
