(So I thought dunderbolts story was depressing as all hell so, I decided to continue it and lead it to a happier ending . Sorry if this sucks, it's my first attempt at writing anything. Choose the ending you like I guess. Also,sorry if this is not normal, I just hate depressing endings.)

... it had been a good few years, since I did what I did to Stacia. The Demon Lord and every Mamono Lord under her all swore they would take my head. I dont blame them.

The Order managed to rally once more, though they didn't serve me. . . they said another chief God would rise and save the world from doom. They got part of it right.

I killed a good few Mamono lords, most of them came to me. I absorbed their power and grew stronger.

I hated doing it but. . . it's what needed to happen for the time. Eventually. . . The Demon Lord herself caught me, she found me in the old Order Capital, sitting upon an old throne. The doors burst open into the throne room. From her rage or her guards I dont know. The Demon Lord had me surrounded, outnumbered, and every other advantage you can think of.

It's not like I was going anywhere. This was part of my plan, everything leading to this moment was what needed to be done.

She spoke in tone only a person full of hatred could emit, but she didnt raise her voice. "Why have you done this"

. . . I spoke, "it needed to be done, to save the world". My eyes hadn't left the floor the entire time, I couldn't live if I saw that womans eyes.

"YOU CALL THIS SAVING THE WORLD!? SPINNING CHAOS, DISRUPTING THE WORLDS PEACE, MURDERING MY DAUGHTER!?"

Moments passed before I could speak. . . "You should have known peace wasn't going to last."

"DONT YOU DARE TALK OF PEACE! You are the one that started this." I stood from the throne, her guards drew their weapons and stood, ready to protect their leader. I spoke.

"I suppose I am"

"Then you know what will happen here"

"I do. . . . But before that, please let me explain every thing."

"As if you could" I could almost feel her rage boil my soul. I spoke again.

"As it stands now Mamono cant birth human children. . . and you don't have enough energy to change that, the amount of men that have yet to claim wives is dwindling."

I knelt to my knees, facing the ground and layed the dagger used to kill my wife out in front of me

". . . So please, I know my life means nothing to you, so on the name of my wife. . . Take my power and save the world as it is, allow Mamono to birth humans, and forget my stain upon the world." I could feel the tears begin to fall from my face

"Please kill me. . . I need to apologize to my wife."

The Demon Lord spoke "I pity a creature like you."

Her words cut deep, almost as deep as the blade that lobbed off my head.

I found myself in a void, I knew there was an afterlife, after all I was a God, but it appears I wouldn't be getting into it. Well, at least there's a chance the world is saved now.

Suddenly, I heard a voice, it was familiar, but I didn't know who it was. I spent a while in that void, so memory was not something close to me. Then, something happened, feeling? What was it, oh that's what, pain

Then my eyes opened, I was in a bed. I was in a small room, and sunlight shone through the few windows. Someone was next to me. I looked to see their face. . . No. .. No no nonono, please, anyone but her, I'm not ready to face her.

Before me, was my wife, Stacia in all her beauty. She sat with a warm smile. I couldn't face her, I looked down to my lap.

"Why am I here"

Stacia spoke with a loving hum to her voice "We all wished to show our thanks to you"

"For what. . ."

"For what you did for the world, you saved us and we-"

"I dont deserve thanks for what I did. . . . . I killed innocent people who cared for others!" She was silent, but she started again

". . But in return you saved the entire world, and ones you killed have forgiven you."

"How are you so sure of that."

"Because, after my mother killed you, you gave her a power boost large enough to where she could give Mamono human children, But also enough to revive me and the Mamono you killed."

". . . Then why are you here." I spat the words out, unable to control my emotions

"Why would I not be here."

"Because you should hate me."

"Now why would I hate you."

"Bec. . Because I killed you. ."

"Yes, but it was to save the world." She put her hand over mine.

"That doesn't excuse what I did!" I was crying now. Suddenly a mass flew into me. "DO YOU THINK IT MATTERS NOW!?" Stacia had jumped onto the bed and was holding onto me, I could feel her tears on my shoulder. She spoke, softly crying into me.

". . I had to watch you from the heavens. . . I bore witness to all the pain you went through to save us, AND I COULDN'T DO A THING! . . I couldn't even hold you." She hugged me tighter.

By this all I could do was hold her, and all I could say was. ..

"I'm sorry. . ."

" . . . Don't be." She whimpered. All she managed after that was "Hold me close for a while longer."

Eventually It was explained to me, that I was resurrected 25 years after Stacia. Apparently it takes a lot of energy to resurrect a God. So to resurrect me, a holiday was made where Mamono would give their stored up demonic energy to the Demon Lord. Naturally this left them hungry for energy, so they would go home and "love" their husbands. It caught on quick. Today is that holiday, it's the first one where the demonic energy won't be given. But instead there will be a massive celebration. Back to me now.

A succubus comes into our room, and tells Stacia and I that it's time. I managed to sputter out "time for what" before Stacia was throwing clothes on me. Minutes later she is dragging me through the hallways of a palace. We stop at a glass doorway that leads to a balcony. Before we opened the doors, Stacia stopped me and quickly said "Remember, everyone here has forgiven you" I barely managed to get out a "wait wha-" before I was thrust onto the balcony with the Demon Lord and her husband. Naturally. . I was freaking my shit out, before the Demon Lord placed her hand on my shoulder and said "Don't worry. . I'm not going to kill you"

She went on to say "People of this great world. . This is the man that allowed us to live" I then noticed the crowd of humans and monsters alike, going as far as I could see in the city. She continued "He put himself through hardship and pain, the likes of us could never imagine, to make sure we could live!!"

With this, the crowd cheered. I saw a human toddler held up by a man, who was held up my an ushi oni with a proud smile on her face, I also saw a lamia getting very intimate while kissing her husband. Stacia while holding my hand spoke

"See, they have all forgiven you, and so have I!" At this she kissed me, deeper than ever before.

I didn't think I had anymore tears left, but the world decided to prove me wrong.

The Demon Lord put her hand on my shoulder again stating "I better see her pregnant by tommorow morning, she has been waiting for you for 25 years."

When I saw Stacia smiling from ear to ear, I couldn't decide if I was excited or terrified.

(Again sorry if this sucks, or if its taboo here or something like that, i just really hate bad endings.) Thank you for reading.
