Chief God

The Chief God is the principal deity worshipped by the Order, and, therefore, by the majority of humans in the Monster Girl Encyclopedia world. Commanding the Angels, Valkyries, and lesser divinities, the Chief God stands in opposition to the monsters in general and the Demon Lord in particular. The Chief God grants boons to humans, making them blessed heroes, and sometimes speaks to her devotees directly, like Sasha Folmoon.

Myth and Reality
As described in Monster Girl Encyclopedia I, Order doctrine holds that the Chief God created the world and all things in it, with the exception of the other gods, and the monsters who "emerged from the darkness". The humans believe that the Chief God is omniscient and omnipotent, and gently watches over the world to guide mankind in the right direction. Worship of some other gods, like Ares and Eros, is accepted in Order lands as these divinities are understood to be subordinates of the Chief God. With a message of love, kindness, and temperance, the Chief God's teachings describe how to live a virtuous life in harmony and contentment with one's neighbours - except the evil monsters.

However, after travelling into Royal Makai and interviewing the monsters, in the section on The Order of God and the Structure of the World, the Wandering Scholar relates a different story of the Chief God. Most importantly - as with the Demon Lord - the Chief God is a title, not a single being. Although the original Chief God did create the world, humanity, and subdue the other gods, it also intentionally created the monsters. Furthermore, the present Chief God is an inexperienced goddess only newly risen to paramountcy, and she was gravely wounded after trying to destroy the Demon Lord and her husband in battle. Unable to directly attack her nemeses again, the Chief God currently focuses on raising human heroes in the hope that one will succeed in slaying the leader of the monsters.

God's Servants and the Structure of the World (MGE-1, p210)
As of the present, monsters no longer willingly kill humans, but the war between monsters and humans still won't end. According to the teachings of the Order which reveres the Chief God who is purported to be the creator of the world, the monsters are regarded as evil. Most of the world's humans are adherents of the Order. Since they've lived according to that doctrine from early childhood, most humans are hostile towards monsters. On this page, I'll introduce all the servants of the Chief God, including humans.

Humans

As you know, humans are the most proliferate form of intelligent life that inhabits the world. The magical power and physical abilities of humans who haven't received training are far lower than that of the monsters. Most humans are no match for attacking monsters, and they're easily knocked down, which leads to coupling, and soon after, they're taken home by the monsters.

However, depending on training, the abilities of humans can grow immensely. Those who have received advanced training, those who have gone through many battles, those receiving divine protection, etc. are called “champions” or “heroes.” They are far more powerful than an average monster.

1-1. The Order and Anti-Monster States

The Order is the religious organization that reveres the Chief God who is purported to be the creator of the world. The Order isn't monotheistic, there are many gods, but all of the other gods are regarded as subordinates of the Chief God. Faiths that revere the other gods are treated as sects of the Chief God's religion. For that reason, the majority of humans are adherents of the Chief God. The majority of nations have established the Chief God's religion as the state religion. Most of the human world is controlled by this enormous organization, and humans have values that conform with its doctrine. The doctrine of the Chief God's religion explains how to live one’s life properly as a human. Virtue lies with maintaining to be noble in character and pure of heart, never drowning in lust and other desires. Clean living is regarded as virtuous. The followers of the Chief God's religion begin every day by praying to the Chief God, and they continue to be virtuous, according to the Chief God's teachings. They lead clean and quiet lives. And because one of the teachings says to love thy neighbor, they treat other people who are followers of the same religion with kindness.

However, according to the Chief God's teachings, neighbor doesn't include monsters. They are taught that monsters have been the enemies of humanity since the age of the former demon lord, they are beings who corrupt, and lead mankind to destruction. (Actually, if the children born between human men and monsters are only female monsters, then it would gradually lead to humanity's ruin.)

For that reason, they are hostile towards monsters. The Order's knight brigades, etc. will aggressively attempt to slay monsters as soon as they spot them. They also form armies and try to invade the Demon Realm. Additionally, people called “heroes,” who receive orders to slay the Demon Lord from The Order, are under the divine protection of the Chief God. They boast far more powerful combat abilities compared to an ordinary human, and can overwhelm monsters.

However, because of the benevolent nature of heroes and holy knights, when they actually get in a fight with monsters, many of them hesitate to bring their sword down on a monster in the form of a woman, and in that moment of vulnerability, the monsters catch them off guard, and they end up having sex with them. No matter how strong the will of the knight or hero, they are still men after all, and they are unable to resist sex with monsters who have bodies that are specially adapted just for pleasuring men. After having sex with them, they know devilish pleasure for the first time, and learn of the deep love that monsters have for human men, which results in them becoming prisoners of the monsters. They will probably end up choosing the path of living with monsters. Additionally, these countries that are controlled by the teachings of The Order, and have hostile policies towards monsters are called “anti-monster states.” Most of the anti-monster states are comparatively affluent, and boast a high cultural standard due to the teachings of the Chief God.

Divinities (MGE-1, p211)
A general name for the gods, with the Chief God who is said to have created the world at the top. Beings that rule the world and humans from heaven, and spread their own teachings to humans through The Order. They also sometimes give humans instructions directly as oracles. Heaven is a hierarchical society. There's a huge division between the greater divinities, who are the gods, and the lesser divinities, who are angels.

Furthermore, the gods and angels themselves are divided into many different classes. Even the lowest among the lesser divinities who are angels, angel (p. 204), possesses vastly more power than the average human or monster. Speaking of the power of the higher angels and gods, it is even more tremendous.

2-1 The Chief God as Seen from the Order's Teachings

It is the omnipotent and omniscient creator god who gave birth to humans and subdued many of the other gods. The Chief God is gently watching over humans. Sometimes it extends a hand to steer humans in the right direction. As of the present, the wicked Demon Lord who emerged from the darkness is working from the shadows to destroy humans, the servants of the Chief God. In order to protect humans from the Demon Lord, humans are being divinely protected through God's power and given the power of “heroes.” From time to time, it dispatches lesser divinities to The Order, bestows great power and blessings to the knights and heroes, and joins them in the fight against the monsters.

The Truth (MGE-1, p212)
As far as I know about the truth of this world, the teachings of The Order seem to include a lot of falsehoods. From here on, I'm going to introduce a story that goes to the heart of this world.

First off, it's true that the Chief God created the world and humans. But the Demon Lord and the monsters were included as part of the “world” that the Chief God created. Saying that the Demon Lord is a being who emerged from the darkness is a huge lie on the part of the gods and The Order.

Monsters are, in essence, beings that are higher on the food chain than humans. They're living creatures the Chief God created so that it could adjust the number of humans. The Demon Lord, who The Order insists is wicked, was created as a control device so that the gods could control the monsters. As in the present, the Demon Lord's energy has always been linked with all monsters. By giving the Demon Lord directives, the Chief God is able to indirectly control the monsters.

Whenever civilization flourishes, and humans increase too much in number, it turns the monsters vicious as in the age of the former Demon Lord, killing large amounts of humans, thereby thinning their numbers. And then, when humans start to die out, this time the monsters increase too much in number, so this time it gives humans incredible power, creating “heroes,” and sending them to slay the Demon Lord. After the Demon Lord is slain, the monsters kill each other to decide the next Demon Lord, and until one is decided, their number keeps decreasing on its own. And then, when humans reach prosperity once again, and begin increasing in number, a new Demon Lord is born as a control device from amongst the monsters.

And then, the entire process repeats itself. This is the world's system. The system was running perfectly until a certain succubus became Demon Lord and caused the system to start malfunctioning. The Demon Lord used her demonic power which is linked to all monsters to start overwriting the traits instilled in the monsters from the time when the Chief God created them: “Monsters are beings that are higher existences than humans, and monsters are beings that live by eating humans.”

Naturally, the Chief God was furious. She tried to eliminate the Demon Lord. She gave the power to slay the Demon Lord to a hero according to the system at the time, but since the Hero betrayed the Chief God and went on the side of the Demon Lord, the attempt at eliminating her ended in failure. The strongest of the monsters, the Demon Lord, and the strongest of humanity, the Hero, joined hands to create a new world together. The Demon Lord, who is a succubus, and the Hero who was made an incubus by her hands, can increase each other's power infinitely by continuously having sex due to their nature. Their power had already reached the level of a god, and not even the Chief God was able to destroy them. The Chief God was gravely wounded in the battle, and as of the present, she can't move freely, so she's manipulating humans into doing her bidding through the church, giving many humans the power of a “hero,” and frequently sending extermination squads at the Demon Lord.

So all that is the truth of this world. It's already a myth level story. It doesn't feel real to me either. If The Order knew I had written something like this, I bet I'd probably be executed immediately. Whether or not this nonsense of mine is to be believed is up to you who have taken the book in hand. On the same occasion, I was able to ask the Demon Lord herself about her future vision for this world that she's trying to change, so I'll summarize it on (p. 230).

For those of you who wonder whether this story is true, the Demon Lord and Hero are both alive and well. Go visit the Demon Realm and ask them directly yourself. That is, if you're confident that you won't get caught by monsters along the way.

2-3 The Other Gods

Now let's get back on course after that crazy story from before. There are many other beings called gods besides just the Chief God. The Chief God is trying to fix the system that the Demon Lord threw out of whack, but it seems not all of the gods think that way.

“The Fallen God” was consumed by devilish pleasure, corrupted, and changed into a monster while still possessing the power of a god. For the sake of the denizens of the sea whom she loved, “Poseidon, god of the sea (p. 128)” joined them and went on the demon lord's side. The alliances of the gods are never fixed and unchanging. Presently, the Demon Lord has several divinities as allies. The Chief God is in a position where it's getting harder and harder to strike at the Demon Lord.

The Utopia the Demon Lord Dreams Of (MGE-1, p230)
Humans and monsters are beings that were created by god and ordained to kill each other. In this world, the blood of humans and monsters has been repeatedly spilled as they slaughter one another. A system that goes on ad infinitum was constructed. (p.210) The leader of the monsters, the present Demon Lord, twisted the forms of the monsters that were established by god in order to break the loop and reshaped the world. Before introducing the last monster in this book, we'll introduce her vision of the world's future that she's trying to bring about.

The Utopia the Demon Lord Dreams Of

The Demon Lord's objective is to change all men into incubi, and change all women into monsters, thus bringing about the “unification of humans and monsters into one race.” In the completely unified race, the males will be humans, and the females will be monsters. She used the power of the Demon Lord which links the demonic energy of all monsters to channel her own energy into them, changing them into the kind of monsters she desired, thus overwriting the settings for the monsters that god had established. In this way, “monsters” changed forms into female “monster girls” that feel strong love for male human men, mate with them, and produce children.

Originally the Demon Lord was merely one of the living things created by the Chief God, and had nowhere near enough power for it to be possible for her to overwrite the Chief God's settings. However, fortunately enough, because of several overlapping coincidences, she was able to achieve it. One was that she happened to be a succubus, a being that builds up power by having sex with men; one was that her husband, who was the hero at the time, sympathized with her ambition and cooperated with her; one was that the monsters lent her their strength for some reason even though up to that point they had always fought endlessly amongst themselves, killing even their own kind in the struggle to decide a demon lord; and one was that just as in the case of the demon lord, a new chief god took over, but she was a goddess who was still very inexperienced. The state of the present is the product of all these coincidences.

However, the settings that had been determined by the Chief God weren't so weak that she could completely overwrite them with just that. A number of problems remained that the Demon Lord hadn't foreseen. Although their objective changed from killing and devouring flesh and blood, to mating and milking semen, the setting “monsters assault humans” remained. Additionally, since the setting “monsters are biologically superior beings to humans,” also remained, nothing but the monster girls who are both mothers and superior beings actually ended up resulting from the coupling of humans and monster girls, even though the Demon Lord had expected that the incubi, who are the males of the unified race, would also have been born.

Because of this, the racial unification that the Demon Lord seeks is impossible. Instead, the humans will probably eventually die out gradually just the way the present gods and Chief God insisted it would be. And now more than ever, the Chief God and Demon Lord's powers are locked in a bitter struggle. It wouldn't be strange if the balance crumbled at any moment. If the Demon Lord is defeated by the Chief God and she loses her life, the monster girls will revert to being “monsters” whose heads are full of nothing but the desire to kill and eat humans. Should it come to that, the happiness of the monster girls who married and settled with their beloved human men will be shattered, they will end up having to kill and eat their own beloved husbands with their own hands.

However, as for the Demon Lord's power, every time she stores power, every time the monsters increase in number, and every time the Demon Realm expands, it grows stronger. If the Demon Lord's power continues to increase at this rate, eventually she'll be able to completely overwrite and establish the monster girls' settings. If it occurs, then incubi will end up also being born from monster girls. Human men and monster girls will seek one another, and then it can lead to the rebirth of a new human race.

Presently, it is said that the Demon Lord and her husband who is the human hero keep copulating deep within the Demon Lord's castle in order to build up demonic energy. They're an incubus and succubus couple, and the more they have sex, the more power they are able to grant to one another. Their power keeps rapidly growing more immense.

And one more thing. The Demon Lord's power which is linked with all monster girls will grow bigger, however slightly, if you couple with a monster girl and give them your spirit. You are also one of those who holds the world's future and destiny in his very hands.
