Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

Within the land of the demon king, the powerful and mighty wyvern king flew thru the land with speed faster than the wind, he flew from the north wall of the Regeen kingdom to the Demon castle is such a short amount of time while carrying the wounded 6th general Manticore, all the demon that saw feel the presence of the wyvern king felt joy and energetic like as if they were given the power to become a demon general itself, along the way wyvern king was followed by Bennu and Phoenix after entering the demon territory

"How's the progress of our mission 7th general Bennu and 9th general Phoenix?" Ask Wyvern king while still flying towards the demon castle

"We accomplished 70% of our objectives master" said Bennu flying right behind Wyvern king and next to Phoenix

"Only 70%? What happened?" Ask Wyvern king looking back at his two underlings with a death glare

"FORGIVE US MASTER!" Said the two of them

"we were unable to continue if it wasn't because of those hunters who attack us we would have finished it in time but manticore decided that we should take care of those hunters and" said Bennu with a very nervous tone

"Enough we don't have time to blame who is in the wrong right now since we failed our mission we have to report it to the demon king and take any punishment that the king gave understand!" said the Wyvern king

Wyvern king words cut Phoenix explanation and a deadly aura was coming out of Wyvern king, both Bennu and Phoenix were in fear not knowing what to do they're not afraid of the demon king punishment but what they're afraid of is their master salvation looking at Manticore that their master is carrying they knew that she have received their master salvation the only thing that they can think of is how to endure the pain from the powerful black flames that their master created, "enough we have arrived at the demon castle.

The Demon castle, a castle that was made out of rare materials that can only be found hundreds and hundreds of meters down underground at the demon territory that say that the materials is actually bones of ancient demons who once fought the gods , such precious material was used to build such magnificent and gigantic castle without flaws and weak spot it was a castle like no other the castle that was made for one purpose to protect the demon king from the knights and heroes who tried to kill him, not only the castle is indestructible but it is also where the 12 general of the Demon king gathers even if the knight and heroes ware to able to enter the castle it is almost impossible to enter the Demon king chamber with 5 generals protecting the outer part of the chamber and the 3great generals stand guard right behind the chamber door there was not a single living being that can come back alive after attacking the demon castle even in the records of the gods only one man have ever accomplished killing a demon king and yet he never came out of the castle after that, the god might not be able to interfere with the mortal business but they can help them with their troubles, but all of that is not enough for this era because this is the era where the demons will rule over the world the second time because they have something that even god blessing cannot touched that is human pride, envy and wrath the great 3 generals of the demon king.

Within the great Demon king chamber the demon king sit on his throne

"the 1st great general the Wyvern king and his underlings have arrived my lord," said the messenger from the door

"Let them in" replied the demon king,

the demon king on his throne with simple clothes just like how human looks was smiling for some reason, the chamber door was open and Wyvern king and his underlings enter the gate in the chamber there was only the demon king and his advisors Pandora a being that brought down by the gods to earth for punishment to human for their sins. the Wyvern king quickly bow down and show his respect to the demon the and then the Demon king replied with a wave of his Hand

"Repot my lord we were unable to accomplish your desires please forgive punish us for this matter is not what you wish for my lord" said the Wyvern king

still bowing down in front of the demon king the Wyvern king is known for not just his power but also his royalty is something that no other human can do after his entire home was destroyed by both humans and demons he still wants to follow the demon kings goal

"You did well 1st general your efforts was enough to give joy to me, I will not punish you but I shall give you and your mans a second assignment and make sure to not failed this one " replied the demon king smiling while looking down to Wyvern king

"Thank you, my lord, we will not fail you again, " said Wyvern king showing his gratitude in front of the demon king

"You may leave 3rd general Garuda lord will give you your next assignment" command the demon king

when the Wyvern king and his underlings were about to leave the chamber the demon king called for only the Wyvern king to stay and told them that the assignment was only for the 6th ,7th and 9th general

"As you wish my lord" said the Wyvern king

Walking back into the chamber while his underlings are going out with a unpleasant feeling not knowing what will happened to their master.

The chamber fell silent no one made a single sound the Wyvern king was just standing in guard like a soldier in front of theirs commander and Pandora was looking at Wyvern king with a bit worried but for some reason the demon king was just smiling with joy even Pandora seems to not like what will happen

"so Wyvern king.." said the demon king while standing up and walking closer to the Wyvern king "what… do you… think… about these new looks?"

Suddenly the atmosphere turns joyful, not like before the demon king was showing the 1st general his new look with the human clothing fashion and this type of things only known by the great 3 generals and Pandora

"It looks good on you my lord" replied Wyvern king

With a plain face and not even a single expression on his face and Pandora looked disappointed hearing what Wyvern king replied and how does the demon king always act differently in front of the Wyvern king

"Oh…. You always say that, and enough with the lord thing call me by my name" said the demon king

With a joyful expression and smiling with joys and excitement

"Sorry my… I mean Ace but you look good on anything that you wear" said the Wyvern king

Still putting a poker face, the Demon king Ace look annoyed with that answer and he keeps teasing Wyvern king to make him at least make one expression

"enough!, please Lord Ace mind your manners this is embarrassing what if someone knows about this side of you" complain Pandora while she's walking towards Ace

the Demon king he quickly hides behind Wyvern king just like a little kid that about to get scolded

"Dove please protect me from her" said the Demon king

With stupid expression the Demon king was afraid of one so-called the punisher of mankind the destroyer Pandora,

"Dove move!" said Pandora in a raging tone

"No don't move to protect me! I don't want to work my ass off all day like this, this is not what I planned!" said Ace still trying to hide behind Dove the Wyvern king,

Dove looked at the Demon king face after hearing what he said but Dove didn't think that the monarch Demon king would make such a childish expression, the three of them was arguing over an hour and the guards behind the door was holding their laughter hearing that their idol Dove the 1st general also known as the Wyvern king actually can put up to their king childish personality.

"Now get back to work!!" said Pandora after hitting both Ace the Demon king and Dove the 1st General a few times

"Yes ma'am" both Ace and Dove said it at the same time

But their expression was completely different while Dove keeps his plain and no expression of a face Ace made a face that looks like a kid that's about to cry after seeing this Pandora took a deep breath and blow off some steam

"alright you can have fun with Dove only after you finished all this paperwork you said you want to make peace with the humans right?" said Pandora her expression was like a tired mother after taking care of her annoying children,

Ace face quickly turns happy and smiling wide excited

"Really?!" he asks

"yes now quickly finish it ok" said Pandora making it more convincing to Ace

"OK then I'll finish all this paper works so we can have peace with the human and then I can play with Dove after that" said Ace the Demon king

he quickly stands up and ran to his table and start working all the paperwork in high-speed Pandora on the other hand looked happy with a small and quick small smile on her face before noticing that Dove the Wyvern king was actually looking straight at the with a poker face

"What? You have a problem Dove?!" with embarrassing red face Pandora quickly look away and hide her face

"No, I was impressed that you could persuade the Demon king that easy" said Dove calmly ignoring Pandora expressions

"well he acts like a kid so I'll just treat him like one" said Pandora still too embarrassed looking back at Dove

"so you are saying that you're a good mother?" said Dove innocently

without considering the condition hearing this Pandora blushed even more and the Demon king quickly stops his work and look at both of his advisors and trusted friend is flirting one way only with one not knowing what the meaning of his saying and the other is just to high hope the Demon king was confused more than ever and the chamber once again became quiet for a few minutes only with Pandora whispering odd things loudly.

Dove came out of the chamber leaving Pandora that still acting awkward and the Demon king Ace doing his work, Dove face never made a single expression even before ace become the Demon king that rule over all the Demon kind, despite the fact that he was actually a human Dove is still being praised by the demons and monsters who see him walk pass or flying past it's because he was actually the first human that pledge loyalty to Ace even before Ace became the Demon king Dove actually already serving him on his own will with no hesitation or whatever even when the Demon king command him towards his death Dove still accomplish his lord order flawlessly, his loyalty is unmeasured same as his strength even everyone know that he's stronger then the Demon king itself but he keep serving him loyal, no one know the reason is it about a debt or a curse or even maybe a powerful spell that make him obey every order given to him by the one that he acknowledged as his lord but for whatever reason there is nothing that can be compared with his loyalty toward the people that he considered his lord, his tragic past that said that his home town was destroyed by the previous Demon king and that the fact that his sister was being harassed by the Demon he still work together with them until his dying breath.

At first, he was being treated like a slave by Ace that the age of 12 and Ace was 9 a child of a half-demon that was thrown away by his mother after both of them met at that age Dove pledge his loyalty straight away to Ace without hesitation at all.

Remembering the past Dove let some few tears slip down from his eyes but his face still doesn't make a single expression and quickly sweeps them off and while walking out of the Demon castle he bummed with the 2nd Demon General halfway the Griffin emperor

"oh Dove how you are? Did you finish your assignment already?" ask Griffin emperor with a smile and a friendly expression

"I failed the assignment," said Dove in short

trying to avoid as many as conversations as possible because he knew that this companion of his is one annoying woman

"awh...come on tell me what happened I'm curious what makes the great Wyvern king failed his Mission" ask the Griffin emperor

while closing the distance between her face and Dove, with a smirk she is trying to tease Dove to finally make an expression but as always she failed

"it was the golden knight lady Scorpio" Dove still trying to keep the conversation short

and a plain face without a single expression so he can quickly go to patrolling the border but hearing the name LADY SCORPIO made Griffin emperor blood boils and makes her forget about Dove existence for a second

"that damn b*tch how dare she getting close to my future husband" those words actually came out of Griffin emperor mouth accidentally without her knowing it,

knowing that Griffin emperor is distracted Dove quickly used his sneak skill and slip away quickly disappearing from sight, still not knowing about Dove whereabouts Griffin emperor still continues talking

"ehm... No worries I Raven the Griffin emperor will take care of her so that she never bother you ever again, and don't mind what I was saying earlier it was nothing" said Raven confidently

while laughing not knowing that Dove is already gone

"what do you say? I beat her once, after all, I can beat her twice" said Raven

Raven still thinks that Dove would praise her like usual not knowing that someone that has a similar high took Dove place

"you know he already left a long time ago said the person that took Dove place

"WHAT!!!" shouted Raven with shock

realizing that the person in front of her is no other than her rival the Garuda lord

"B*TCH!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME EARLIER!!!" shouted Raven straight at Garuda Lord the 3rd General

"watch your language would you anyway if anyone going to win his heart and make his face smile it would be Me Ariya the Garuda lord huh" said Ariya

proudly showing off in front of Raven the Griffin emperor just to mock her and eventually they started a mocking battle and a fight inside of the Demon castle hallway for a few hours.

At the north side of the Demon border lies a small castle where the North guard lives the 4th General and one of the 7 deadly sins lust harpy or known as the dark cupid Kurosan the most powerful border guard that separates the Demon territory and the dragon gods territory where high elf and powerful dragon lives, there has to be a powerful demon to protect this border that is why he the Harpy was sent there they say that Harpy Kurosan has fought 5 superior dragons and walk out of the fight alive as the winner and the only person that is acknowledged by Wyvern king Dove as a good sparring partner.

"ugh... I'm bored there haven't been any order from the Demon king nor any attack from the dragons or elves" said Kurosan the 4th General Harpy

He is slugging on a chair like a lazy person just looking at the sky full of hopelessness

"why not do your hobby sir Harpy" said one of his companion Demon golem

"well... I'm bored at that to I already carved all the 12 generals statue and even I made 10 different Demon king statue I'm bored..." said the 4th general Harpy

Then he continues slugging to the floor both of his companions the Demon golem and the Demon orcs was looking down on their leader disappointed knowing that a powerful person would act like a stupid child when both Golem and Orc is trying to ignore Kurason talking about useless stuff someone burst thru the door and shout

"YO HARPY I GOT I JOB FOR YA AND DON'T WORRY I'LL TAKE CARE OF YOUR BORDER" the person was no other than Garuda lord Ariya the 3rd General of the Demon King also known as the sins of pride,

"listen here Kurosan I have a job for you" said Ariya the Garuda lord while walking toward the Harpy Kurosan that is now standing straight not like before

"yes miss!! What would be your order!!" Said Harpy with excitement knowing that he will have something to do rather than stay in his castle and doing nothing all-day

"I want you to spy on a certain person and make sure you don't get caught and get all the information that you can from her" ordered Ariya after sitting down on the chair that was used by Kurosan a moment ago

"and who is this person that miss Ariya the 3rd General interested in" ask Kurosan once again trying to know more details about his mission

"The 1st general the Wyvern king failed on his assignment just now I heard that it was caused by this person Lady Scorpio, can you do it Harpy?" said Ariya looking down on Harpy

with her PRIDE GLARE, a skill that makes anyone on sight feel weak and powerless and the room atmosphere turned dark all the sudden and the gravity pull is even bigger forcing Harpy and the other Demon to bow down immediately

"well what's your answer Harpy the 4th general of the Demon king? "asked the Garuda lord once again

making the pressure even harder than before with a big smile and prideful expression she look down on Harpy that's unable to stand up or even look Garuda lord on the eye

"ye… yes I… understand lord Garuda… I'll finish the job… quickly…" said harpy with a nervous tone

"don't worry take your time as longest you get the accurate information," said Ariya after letting the pressure off she then stands up and walking toward the exit

"Don't disappoint me Harpy," said Garuda lord, and then she disappeared into the darkness.

Both the Griffin emperor and the Garuda lord have been rival since they were kids they always compute with one another even every single things nonstop it was troublesome for the people around them but when the new Demon king declared himself and able to gather all the 12 Demon general under his command that Demon king was Demon king Ace the reason was not ace itself but the man who always became ace shadow at the time the one that give the title the fire God walking calamity and the one that was given the position as the 1st Demon General Wyvern king, knowing that the Wyvern king never make an expression no matter the situation both of them the Griffin emperor and Garuda lord compete to make the Wyvern king make an expression and fall in love with them, at first they only see it as a competition but as time go on it changed into a goal for both of them because of this Wyvern king was unable to stick around the Demon king all the time because both of the Griffin emperor and the Garuda lord will all bother him whenever they got the chance to meet him this is also a problem to the Demon king with his most closest friend the Wyvern king is not by his side the Demon king unable to escape from Pandora and forced to work all day then one day the Demon king also join this competition if he can make the Wyvern king made an expression both the Griffin emperor and the Garuda lord have to leave Wyvern king alone and never bother him again so the Demon king can play again when he have a chance first both of them disagree but after a few negotiations and rule making the 3 of them came to an agreement but just when they about to put a seal on it Pandora join and also Harpy and Ivy queen the competition was very strict and it was not easy but who could have guessed that the first expression that the Wyvern made was actually because of a little girl but that will happen pretty soon enough.

At the Demon territory mines the 2nd general the Griffin emperor is looking around trying to find a certain person to negotiate with but it took him longer than expected because the person that she's looking for is not easy to find knowing that he keeps moving every second nonstop underground but with the help of a certain item he came out of the ground to meet Griffin emperor after a few hours of searching and that person was the 5th Demon general Worm Ranmuri and one of the sins greed and also known as the Crystal maniac

"Ranmuri the 5th General Worm I have a job for you" ordered the Griffin emperor while holding a head side black crystal,

"I usually consider who ordered Me but by the looks of that crystal your holding is it undead dragon belonging may I ask hehehehe" said the Worm Ranmuri with an odd and unpleasant to hear of a tone

"You don't have to question it all you need to say is will you accept it or not" said Raven

While also threatening to destroy the crystal by its own hand seeing this Worm feel unpleasant that he just want to attack Raven but he know that he doesn't stand a chance against her and that made him more pissed than ever

"So what do you say 5th general Worm?" ask Raven once again

"well I usually consider it but that crystal look good and big what is the assignment whatever I don't care just give me the crystal and I'll do anything" replied Worm without thinking any further blinded by his own greed

"I want you to destroy a certain village that has a high chance to be a big obstacle to our king goal, to make peace with the human" said Raven throwing the crystal to worm and worm quickly catches it in split second quickly hugging it and admire it with blabbering words

"Just don't make it too obvious that you do it make it like an accident or something, and if you succeed I'll give you a bigger reward," said Raven the Griffin emperor

Continues explaining and made a giant red orb appear on his hand seeing this worm have no more hesitation left he quickly do what the 2nd general Griffin emperor told him to and head to the village thru underground leaving the Griffin emperor alone looking to the sky

"With this, your hometown will disappear Scorpio this is just a simple prize you need to pay because of your foolishness," said the Griffin emperor.
