Chapter #16Showing Yourself to Usalia by: Ponymon   Even though you weren’t one hundred percent certain that you could trust Usalia, you decided that it would be better to get her attention now. There was no way to tell if she would help you or not, so it was better to find out that answer right away. Having made your decision you focus your attention on Usalia, looking for a time to get her attention.
Usalia kicked off her bunny slippers and stretched a little, groaning softly. She was exhausted by her day of being an Overlord. Even in a peaceful netherworld, managing a society of demons was a lot of work. She was relieved to finally have a chance to relax in her personal room. She did have a more extravagant room near the throne room, but everyone knew about that one. It was mostly a comfortable place to do work. Only a few of the castle servants knew about this special room, so she was confident her relaxation would go uninterrupted.
She was going to toss off her yellow jacket before she noticed something on the table. Resting on it was a stainless steel domed food cover. It was covering a rather large dish. “That’s odd.” Usalia thought to herself. “I didn’t request any servants to bring me any food, plip.” She approached the table and was going to lift the dome, but stopped herself when she saw a note on it.
Meanwhile you were following behind Usalia, shaken after you had almost been hit by her discarded slippers. You arrived by Usalia’s feet without further issue and, looking up, you saw Usalia reading a note. She… did not look very pleased. She quickly crumpled the note in a tight fist before dropping it on the table. “Ugh. How did she know about this place?” Usalia groaned, her toes scrunching in anger. “This is supposed to be my place, plip! I just want to relax here and now she’s going to be dropping stuff in here! What is this anyways, plip?”
Usalia yanked the dome off the plate, annoyance clear on her face, only for it to be replaced by a look of awe. Presented pristinely on the plate was an exquisite serving of curry, Usalia’s favorite meal. Even though she didn’t want to, Usalia felt her mouth begin to salivate and her stomach grumbled; loudly. All of her work had left her unable to eat, and she knew that the person who made this was incredibly good at making curry. But she loathed the idea of eating it because of who made it.
Down below, you waved up at Usalia, hoping to get her attention. But whatever she was staring at really had her attention. At first she seemed angry about it, but then she looked mesmerized. It was obvious she couldn’t see you, but you wondered what she was looking at. Then you heard her stomach growl. It was kind of cute, and helped you figure that she was looking at food of some kind.
Usalia looked at the delicious plate of curry in front of her hesitantly. She was, really hungry and it had been a long exhausting day. Even though she resented the demon who made this, it was always hard for Usalia to skip out on curry. Pulling up a chair, she sat down and put her elbows up on the table. Hiding her face behind her hands, she stared at the curry, having an internal debate on what to do with it.
While Usalia was having a stare down with her meal, you had begun scaling the table holding the dish in question. For what felt like the first time since you got here, luck was on your side. The tablecloth that was on the table was sloppily put on and a lot of it was hanging off the table. So much of it was hanging off that scaling it was easy! You focused intently on the climb, putting everything else that was coming out of your mind.
While you had you perilous climb, Usalia had come to a decision. She would not waste the curry. Even though it was made by someone she couldn’t stand, she was just too hungry and her curry was too good. It wasn’t like anyone was around to see her anyways, she could just lie about throwing it away later. She licked her lips eagerly as she grabbed a spoon and dug into her meal, savoring it after a long day.
As Usalia was enjoying her curry, you had finally made it to the top of the table. Laying on your back, you take a moment to catch your breath. And now you had to confront the hard part of your situation. The Overlord of a world of demons was right in front of you, and you had to convince her to help you. You get to your feet, steel your nerves, face said overlord, and see her enjoying a plate of curry! A content smile on her face, her eyes closed savoring the meal. You stifle a laugh. The site was pretty adorable for someone called Overlord.
You move closer to the giant girl, the sound of her munching on her food clear to your ears. She seemed so happy with her meal that it was almost heartwarming. You decide to stand next to the plate of curry, figuring it would be the best place to get her attention. As you wait for her to finish her bite, you consider how you should greet her.
Usalia, was enjoying another bite of her meal. Her mood had grown considerably better now that she had some time to relax. Swallowing her latest bite she opened her eyes to get her next bite. Except instead of seeing her plate she saw a tiny human as well. Startled by the human’s sudden appearance, Usalia violently choked on her food. Punching herself in the chest, she tried to cough up the food that got stuck in her throat. Eventually she succeeded, coughing the food out and onto the tiny human! Usalia heard the human groan in disgust as she took a drink of water to clear her throat more.
You groan, completely disgusted by the upchucked food that was clinging to your body. You had no idea that you would startle her so badly! Thankfully the food wasn’t hot, but you were weighed down by the chewed mush and saliva. Doing your best to ignore it, you greet the giantess as planned. “G-greetings Overlord Usalia. I am (Your Name) and I am here to beg for your help.” You say getting on your knee to bow to her. You had no idea if this was a proper way to greet an Overlord, but you figured it wouldn’t hurt.
Usalia hardly seemed concerned with formalities though. “A-are you alright, plip!?” She asked in an incredibly concerned voice. Without waiting for a response, Usalia gently grabbed the human with one hand and a cloth with another. Carefully, she wiped the chewed mess off of the human and looked over him carefully.
“I-I’m fine, Overlord Usalia!” You insist as she pulls gunk off of you.
“I’m so sorry, plip! I didn’t know you would be there so I ended up getting chewed food all over you.” She apologized as she carefully removed so food from your hair.
She felt horrible about what happened. She was curious why there was a human in her netherworld, but right now she was focused on making it up to the tiny human. After cleaning him as much as she could with her cloth, she decided on what to do next.
