Oni's p.o.v "Me," Zara answered as I gasped loudly. Iris looked at him in disbelief. Her grasp on her staff tightened. "It was nice being a part of this beautiful kingdom. Its power, people, and everything were beyond what my mind imagined. You demon king you were kind enough to not kill us all, and I found love with one of the most powerful women in all territories. As much as I would love to stay, I can't. My parents aren't getting any younger and I never said goodbye to them, so they must be depressed over my disappearance. Also, I am the next chief in line because I'm their only male child. If I wasn't, I would have gladly stayed. Sadly I can't turn a blind eye to my people, not after all that I have learned." He said seriously. "In that case, come closer," Master said as Zara slowly did. Master raised his hand and pressed it on his head. I watched as Zara slowly began to revert to his previous young self. When he looked at his hands he quickly looked at Iris who lowered her
(Ten years later) Clair's p.o.v "General," Charity called, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Yes," I answered calmly. "The queen has agreed to your request, and I was sent to report to you directly." She said in my office. "Thank you, captain, that's great news," I answered with a smile then looked at the future plans I had written in the scrolls on the desk. Life wasn't the same after ten years had gone by. Everything was different for us. When we decided to go back home, it wasn't because we missed our land. It was because we wanted to say goodbye to the ones we cared for and loved. Those were our siblings and parents. The other thing we wanted to do was to overthrow and kill the priests and elders that were against the demon kingdom and that's exactly what we did. The humans hated the demons and that was because of them. Every chance they had they poisoned our minds. As long as we would have stayed in the demon kingdom nothing would have changed, so we decided to go back. The
Eleanor's p.o.v "No running in the passage!" I said loudly to my kids. They giggled and ran ahead completely ignoring me. "They sure are stubborn," Iris whispered. "Yes, they really are," I answered with a smile. My son who was the oldest (eight years old) looked very much like his father. He also had two forms, one a dragon and the other one human. He was mostly with his father because he loved magic and learning new things. My young daughter who was five years old was an angel. She was usually quiet, and she was very skilled in archery. At first, I was very concerned about that, but Iris assured me that most demons began training at a very young age. I felt confused because there was never a day she showed her demon form, so I had assumed she was only human but Iris was so sure she too had a demon form. According to her, her powers would show any year or day, so I paid no attention to that because the most important thing was that I loved them no matter what. "So my son is rea
Ducan's P.o.v I sat on my huge silver throne reluctantly with my legs crossed listening to my generals' suggestions with interest. Everything was going smoothly and beautifully in my kingdom that I would say. Despite the humans still fearing us and other lame losers trying to have passage to my kingdom all in the name of becoming heroes, we were still in control. For three thousand years, I governed my kind with alter most discipline and restriction. My mother was a humble Human being while my father was a cruel demon lord. Due to past calamity in the human world, the human elders called upon the help of my father. In exchange for his help, they offered my mother to him, who by then was a blessed maiden. A blessed maiden was a favoured virgin girl whom the gods granted power and gifts. They were not only unheard of, they were usually born once every thousand years. whoever they gave their body to, he or she acquired significant power no matter what being they were. When my fath
Ducan's p.o.v I looked at the ancient witch calmly as she threw the stones covered in dry blood on the ground chanting a few words. When she looked to the heavens with her arms widely spread, her eyes rolled up and her voice got louder. An invisible shield began to rise up and in front of me a large black door with ancient symbols appeared. When it opened, we all could hear the loud cries of humans mostly in my name. "Search if their territory has a blessed maiden." I ordered. She began chanting the words backwards while the dark bones and stones on the ground rolled in the symbolic circle that had different ancient letters and numbers drawn in it. When she stopped her chanting she dropped her hands and looked at me seriously. Her eyes were back to normal and the bones and stones were no longer moving. "Only you Great Maou can be able to find her." She answered huskily. "What do you mean by that?" I asked calmly. "Your hand, demon king." She ordered as a few murmurs broke out.
Ducan's p.o.v I stood surrounded by a lot of humans who had come out of their houses to look at me like I was some rare priced jewel. The so-called chief stood next to the warriors and a lady facing me. My hand was clenched in fists and I felt disgusted by them. I couldn't help but remember how their kind brutally murdered my parents. "Judging by the rich fur and expensive kimono you are putting on, you must be a lord, right." The chief asked as I chuckled softly then cleared my throat. "I won't beat around the bush because I see no reason to entertain you pests." I answered seriously. "Pests!" He exclaimed. "Yes, so listen carefully. I am The demon king and I am here to grant you rain and healing. In exchange I want your daughter as my bride." I said simply. The man gave me a sympathetic look before whispering something to the young lady next to him. "I'm so sorry to say this my Lord, but my husband is asking you to leave." The young lady said as I raised a brow. Husband?.
Eleanor's p.o.v "Won't you rest Eleanor?" Victor, my best friend and crush, asked seriously. "Evil knows no rest." I answered in a labored breath then drew my bow and arrow closing one eye to get an accurate hit on the board. "You have been training for the past ten years." He said as I dropped the bow and arrow on the ground with a glare. "You have been doing that too, so don't make it sound as if I'm the only one doing my best to always stay fit and very well prepared." I spat. "I didn't mean that, you know. It's good that you are prepared and always training, but I also think you are doing a little too much." He said annoying me. As if him being good looking wasn't enough, he was now getting my attention with his voice only to distract me. "Training for ten years isn't enough. You know that I Have to avenge my father's death and kill the demon king." I answered with detest. "I know and believe me when I say that I understand. Not only did he kill our chief, he exposed you
Ducan's p.o.v "Ducan." Ose called loudly outside my chambers. "Enter ." I ordered calmly. He walked in with a labored breath and gave a low bow. "It's about your bride." He said. I snapped my finger getting rid of the files in front of me then sat upright from my bed. "Are you tired of watching her?" I asked seriously. He was ordered by me to watch over her whenever he had time, but he got strangely attached to her easily, not that I cared. His loyalty to me was still unquestionable. "Huh," he muttered under his breath. "What about her?" I asked not paying attention to his response. "You need to go and claim her now." He said loudly. I huffed in a mocking way then stood up and moved to my huge desk ignoring him. "Ducan don't ignore me!. You really should go and claim her. She's at a marriageable age and she grew up well for a bride. Also, her mother hates and hits her." He said. "We have more pressing matters to attend to, you know?. Like killing all heroes that search f
