Somewhere at the Lohengramm mansion, a boy holding a wooden sword used the wall as his footing to throw himself forward.Foosh-!-Clang!His opponent, a woman who was using a small twig, redirected his attack to the side. She threw a kick on his stomach as follow up, making him flew away to hit the wall."You've really improved your swordsmanship in just two years... I must say, I'm quite impressed, Athan."The woman walked towards the boy and aimed the twig to his neck."Though... That doesn't mean you could beat me yet."Athan, who had his back slumped on the wall, slowly lifted his head upon noticing the shadow towering up before him."Tch...!" He clicked his tongue out of annoyance. Before the woman could even add something to say, she finally noticed that her foot had been standing on to something gooshy... It was weirdly uncomfortable for her."...?"By the time her attention went back to Athan..."Do you...!!?He was gone.She tries to turn around when she suddenly felt somethi

Clang-!Break-!Suddenly, Arthur emitted a strong shockwave that sent the ground around him flying in the air as the world tremors.His natural green eyes glowed, replaced permanently into yellow that was slightly similar to gold. The air around him, like mana, fluctuated uncontrollably. It became thicker, making the enemies, including his allies, have a hard time breathing.-Shrieek!Not only that, yellow lightning began to appear in the air, causing his hair to stand as it cascaded in the air due to the strong gust of breeze."Grrr....!!"Gritting his teeth tightly, Arthur endured the painful electricity that enveloped around his body for a couple seconds before finally able to relax his shoulders.After this painful experience, he took in a deep breath and raised his right hand forward. The mana around him began gathering around his hand, creating what seems to be a vortex.Everything that happened next was fast. Only he and his real opponent were able to follow his movement."Haaaa

Somewhere at the true demon territory, Hell, was a man sitting alone in the throne. His long white hair gently cascaded down to his back, however, if one looks closely, they'd notice a few red strands on his hair.Then, a regal aura exuded from his body.That person was none other than the true demon king...As if staring at the deep abyss in front of him, the king opened his mouth to speak. His melodious yet cold voice rang throughout the room."I see... There are three main candidates of becoming the demon king, no?"Squinting his eyes, the true demon king continued, and stared at the white orb in front of him."Come to think of it... Should I just train this girl...? To give her my position as the demon king? I don't think these demons would care as long as their king is strong."That was how simple some true demons were compared to humans or to the other races. Although there's an intelligence on their territory, in the end they would be willing to serve as long as their king was

Covering my right eye slightly using my hands, I weakly raised my head up to look at the mirror to see what was happening to me... Oh, boy. Guess I'll have to prepare myself because I know that I won't be sleeping tonight.'What the fuck is that!?'Looking at the mirror, I couldn't help but feel scared from what I'm seeing. At the reflection, there was a dark smoky creature attached behind my back, piercing onto my neck using it's nails. Though, I didn't felt anything when the sharp nails of it pierced me. The creature didn't have a feet and seems to be floating. It's body was made from a dark smoke and doesn't have a head but, it had glowing white eyes and huge grin that bared it's long sharp teeth that was utterly similar to sharks."What--"Before I could continue my sentence, the dark creature leaned it's body closer to my ear, and began muttering words I couldn't understand.{#-(_'()8/)$2`=°€©}After the creature finished speaking, a vision...or memories suddenly imprinted my tho

It's been awhile since I felt this... What was this feeling called again? Was it regret, sadness...? No, I think I remember it clearly now.It was called 'fear'... The fear of once again losing someone important because of me.A few years ago, somewhere at the Satella territory, while me and my half brother, who was apparently three years older than me, was running around the forest, we came across a pack of tempest wolves."Broth-"Before I could even call him out, my big brother, Ian, gestured his hands to stop me."Stay back!"Taking a wooden stick from the ground, Ian lit the the tip on fire and began using it to scare the wolves away from the both of them.As we were slowly backing away from the wolves, I suddenly felt a wall hit my back... It was a tree. My brother noticed this and clicked his tongue out of frustration, while his eyes never left the tempest wolves.Then, after pondering for a couple of seconds, he decided to take the risk and summoned an fire wall behind them to
