My Girlfriend Is Stronger Than the Demon Lord – Volume 30 (Chapter 30)
The dawn over the demon realm was deceptively serene. Lava fountains glimmered softly, and the floating fireflowers swayed gently.
"Eren," Aria said, holding my hand as we walked through the castle gardens, "the calm is never permanent."
I frowned. "Let me guess… another group of rebels? Or something even worse?"
She sighed, cheeks pink. "Worse. A new faction has appeared, one that's studied my abilities and weaknesses. They're not only strong—they're cunning."
Before I could process, Gorvath burst in, panicked as usual.
"My Lady! Reports indicate coordinated attacks using forbidden magic across all borders! They are highly organized… and unusually adaptive!"
Aria's eyes narrowed. "Eren… this will test everything: my power, my strategy, and our teamwork. Are you ready?"
I swallowed hard. "I don't know if anyone can be ready for you, but… I'm with you."
By afternoon, the enemy forces were visible: dark-armored demons and shadow constructs, moving with precision and intent. Their leader, a tall figure radiating dark energy, stepped forward.
"Battle Goddess Aria," the leader intoned, voice echoing, "we have studied your every move. This realm will fall to us."
Aria raised her staff, aura blazing. "Eren… watch carefully. This isn't just about power—it's about control, intelligence, and restraint."
The battle began. Dark magic twisted through the skies, but Aria didn't strike blindly. She manipulated the battlefield, freezing attacks midair, neutralizing illusions, and subtly guiding enemy leaders to kneel—all without harming a single soul.
I whispered, awestruck, "She's… doing it again… controlling them without a fight?"
Aria smiled softly, leaning slightly toward me. "Eren… strength without restraint is meaningless. Protecting what matters, while facing chaos… that's true power."
The enemy commander finally bowed, defeated without a single injury. "Your mastery… your heart… is unmatched."
Aria exhaled, lowering her staff. "Good. Now, let's resolve the remaining conflicts peacefully."
I held her hand tightly. "You make the impossible look effortless."
She rested her head on my shoulder, aura glowing gently. "Because, Eren… we face everything together. Chaos, danger, and threats mean nothing when we're side by side."
Once again, the demon realm was safe—not through destruction, but through Aria's unmatched power, wisdom, and heart, with me right by her side.
