It has been hundreds of years since it was built. The magnificent towering structure. Once said to be the pinnacle of architecture in the entire world, the demon king's castle.Hundreds of years had already passed, yet the castle was standing tall. Surrounded by tall spiky walls, visitors like us were only allowed to see its greatness from afar.Ever since the war hundreds of years ago, the demon capital has become open for everyone to visit. This is the first step for people living in this world for peace.“Hey, low-level monster, bring us some drinks.”A knight is called a goblin.The goblin hastily ran with a bunch of mugs in his hands. I’m impressed by his ability to hold the mugs all at once. One of the knights played fun on him and tripped his legs. The poor goblin crashes to the ground with a loud “thud” followed by the craReng sound of breaking glass.“Hahahahahaha”Loud laughs echoed in the bar. Other monsters and demons turned glares toward them. The knight became conscious
Shaymi was immediately thrown inside a huge carriage. Her hands and feet were tied. Her mouth was covered with silk. Frightful, Shaymi turned her glance toward the kidnappers.“Ho… Ho… Ho… We have got plenty of great deals between us. We have got a rare girl with holy magic and plenty of beastmen children. Selling them, we’re going to be extremely rich… Finally, I won’t be playing with those silly puppets on the streets.”The spider monster said.“This is all because of me… I demand a high share of the money.”The old drunk man said as he chugged down a bottle of liquor.Shaymi has her pupils gotten little seeing the old drunk man. Because this old man is the same man she just helped moments ago. Her kindness was replaced by evil deeds.Did I help the wrong person?Shaymi thought, looking at the old man.“You’re being so demanding of a human.”The spider said.“What are you… Urggg…”Silk embraced the old man’s neck. Steadily constricting down. The drunk man struggles with his life. He
Dark and frightening surroundings, that’s how I am going to describe the surroundings I’m in right now. Screams of pain, howls of monsters, cries, and the silent sound produced by the once one how who already lost hope in their eyes. I’m brought inside an underground facility filled with cages.The carriage stopped moving.Monsters took us and put us on the ground. I’m the only one who seems to be a human. Two beasts, men, kids, and a small demon beast.A thin man approached us with a smile, ear to ear. He has a long nose and is wearing a tuxedo.He turned his gaze toward us. Inspecting every inch of our body. After the inspection, he turned his head to the spider monster with confusion.“A human kid as a slave… I bet this kid can’t even cook. She would be useless. The only one who will buy her is an ugly scumbag who likes harassing little girls when underage… I’ll give you five hundred gold coins for everyone.”“Just a five hundred gold coins? Mister Nux, please hear me out… warriors
According to statistics, there are about 200 beast-men living in Oise village. Most of them are fox-eared beasts and men. Just thinking about it got me excited. I can already feel their soft tails rubbing on my cheeks.Just like the map said, there was an open space in the mountain forest, and there was a settlement there.All of the buildings that stood next to each other were made of wood. There are fields that spread around the village, and it looks like they can live a self-sufficient life.Silhouettes could be seen here and there, and their tails can be seen even far away.“We can see Oise village.”My desire heightened.“Is this the tribe of your previous comrade?”“I’m sure about it.”This is the only beaten tribe of men on the whole demon continent. There are said to be other settlements, but that wasn’t specified on the map.Looking at the fox-eared beast… I started to remember Cake and her siblings. Bittersweet feelings immediately enveloped my heart. No matter how long it p
“What are you doing here?”“Wonderful, seeing Konoha here makes me realize that we’re connected by the red string of fate together. This is the best men's tribe and I’m planning on slaving them.”“Slaving?”Just like what they did to those people before. Those people became bombs and exploded.Angered at her claim, I gritted my teeth. Form fist on my hand. I want to destroy her because she is evil. But that will break my promise of giving people a second chance in life.Audrey said those words with a big smile. Rubs wrong on me.“... Yup, yup, they are wonderful creatures. They are physically strong and have high combat abilities. They’ll make great pawns in battle. Using my ability to make them, it was my puppet. I could have an army of them on my finger. And then…”“Then what…”“Hmm, What’s with the terrible face Konoha? This is for the greater good of mankind.”“What’s so good about stealing other people’s lives?”“I was disappointed in you, Konoha… I thought we'd reach an understa
The night came and I was glad no casualties were taken. The smile which I wished to protect was saved. The feast continued and everyone praised me with their praise and appreciation for saving their lives.“Your amazing, that lightning magic was too powerful. Honestly, that is the most powerful magic I have ever seen in my entire life… Seems like you saved my life again together with the whole village. We won’t forget this day in our entire lives.”Said Kuno with a big smile.“It’s nothing special…”“You’re being so mumbling… I like that attitude of yours.”I don’t know… Maybe, I’m just being a hypocrite like Audrey said to me. No matter how many people I saved, my hands are tainted with blood. I’m dirty and there is no way to purify me.“... I have already told the story about my comrades before… Cake, Rasp, and Berry. I’m unable to save them. They died with the same trick that girl did… I don’t want to feel the same regretful feeling again. That’s why I moved and saved everyone. I’m
The sun was brightly Rening overhead. The large ring of light cast over many shadows in Crimonia city. We could say it was a sunny day, but the sun's heat wasn’t enough to take over the chilly winds surrounding the city.Taking off my clothes and washed both from top to toe. I happily walked toward the hot spring and dipped myself.“ A hot bath is the best way to relax…”After many battles, my shoulder became stiffer. Normally, this won’t happen. These following days, I have gotten a lot busier, I think. Usually, I was aimless at my destination. Right now, I’m looking for places I want to go to and hope I have got fragments of my memories.My head is still vague about the memories I gathered. First, I have this blonde girl holding my hand. Her face is blurry, I can’t remember what exactly she looks like. All I know is that her head is warm while holding mine. The surroundings are covered in white. Second, the memories of the black-haired girl. She is showered with bright light. Snappi
The train starts moving abruptly, and the immediate claReng of the steel wheels against the railway tracks echoes through the train car loudly.The inside is normal. No demon presence was indicated. But we all know for users that something is wrong here. Manual train doors won’t open on their own. Second, there is no train duty at that hour and there is no driver at the head.“We should keep moving forward… There is a huge chance that the demon king's eye is located on its head.”Yana said.“There is not so much space inside. Moving around fighting would be a huge task.”I agree with Seth’s statement. Swinging swords and casting magic inside the train is difficult. There is a chance that we might hurt each other as a result.Looking at the plate on the train car. We’re currently located in the 5th train car.“Hima, where are you going?”Asked one of the men.“ It's getting got here, with everybody. I’ll walk opposite from the head and search for some hint about the demon train. I’m qu
