Chapter 6 - Chapter 5. The Addition to the Family

"Now let's practice the spells you learnt my lord. Please stand here and practice secret low level demon magic technique 'Mana Rotation'." Zack said while stepping back. We were out the back of the cabin near the opening of the forest to the road. I began to breathe in a similar way to when I attempted to level up my mana core except the mana that I collected rotated through pathways in my body. I could only assume the pathways taken by the mana were my nervous system and blood vessels. It cycled around my body filling me with power i'd never felt before. "Good job my Lord." 'To think that he'd master it first try is unthinkable. Even a peerless genius takes at least a month to master the basics but this guy mastered the basics and learnt the advanced version himself. Unbelievable talent my master has!'. Zack thought to himself. Of course I could hear that and let out a faint smirk. "Okay my Lord please keep up mana rotation whenever you are fighting as it well resupply your mana. Now please try to hit this target with a low level demon art shadow bullet." Zack instructed me. I lifted my left arm up and visualised a small and skinny purple bullet in front of my hand. I felt my left palm slightly vibrate as my body released an aura that awoke the birds from their sleep from sheer fear. I opened my eyes to see a perfectly shaped purple bullet hovering in front of my left palm. My whole body was leaking a deathly purple aura which even frightened Zack. "Good job my Lord, now please hit the target with all your strength." With a flick of his finger, Zack conjured a Six foot Rock Golem out of the earth.

Before my body had even moved the Golem's solar plexus was pierced by a small purple bullet at a speed unable to be captured by the human eye. The Golem crumbled to the ground as Zack's mouth practically dropped to the floor. 'This boy's talent is unimaginable! I must support him with my all!' Zack thought to himself. "Okay what's next." I said telepathically. "Now please activate the low level demon art earth body reinforcement." I began to send pulses of mana through my feet into the ground by accident, by doing this I located my sleeping parents and everything in a 1 Kilometre radius. Zack cocked an eye brow asking me what was wrong since my face was making a perplexed expression. "I just did something weird Zack. I can see all the living things within a one kilometre radius." "What!? Waga Aruji-sama you just used a spell I hadn't taught you yet called 'Earth Presence'. This spell isn't a demon art but an earth art. For each element there are spells that don't fit into a magic roles usage ability. When a person awakens, if they don't have a magic role then they can use the elemental arts of the elements they can use as spells. You truly are a genius since a person with a magic role can't use elemental arts usually." "Oh, so i'm a super genius. Well that's to be expected." "Master I will tell you something important when learning and creating spells. In light there is darkness and in darkness there is light. The meaning of this is that there is always an opposite reaction or an opposite force in one force." 'This is useful knowledge for creating spells I thought to my self.' "Thanks Zack. But I still need to reinforce my body. I successfully hardened my body to the state that a sword could not pierce it.

"My Lord, in the magic world there are different jobs open to people with the required skills. The city of 'Settlement' is part of a domain of a noble who is at war with another noble who wishes to kill everyone in our nobles domain. The ruler of our domain's name is 'Frank Sinclare'. He has two sons and two daughters. The eldest son is 5 years older than year and the youngest son is six months older than you. The Eldest daughter is 2 months younger than you and the youngest daughter is only one month old." The father has good intentions and is kind, fair and protective of the commoners and his family. The noble who wants to invade our territory has no family and is wicked and cruel." "What are you trying to get at?" I asked Zack. "I believe that if you want we could kill that enemy noble and end the feud and citizen casualties. If you know what kind of fighting style you want then I can tell you what your 'job class' would be." Zack stated. "I believe that I will combine assassination techniques, magic techniques and swordsman techniques, with some long range mana attacks. But I will primarily be an assassin." "Okay if that is what my Lord wishes than would you like me to train you my Lord?" "Yes please Zack, I would like to know some spells that erase my presence, allow me to move quickly, teleport, sharpen my senses, harden my body, magic sword techniques and a way to contain my aura since I know it's pretty large." I chuckled telepathically.

I once again felt that unpleasant feeling of heat coursing through my body while the knowledge was ingrained into my mind. "There you go my Lord, the most pressing issue is to be able to hide your aura. You must be able to control Haki to exert your aura as well as seal it. Are you able to use Haki?" "Yes I can use a limited amount of Haki but it should be sufficient for this task." "As expected of my Lord, now please try to suck in your aura as much as you can." Using the knowledge I had received from Zack I mastered the aura suppression in under an hour. Suddenly the saying that Zack has told me about before came to mind. I picked up a stick and channelled my mana through it. A pure brown aura leaked from my body before being suppressed by my technique. The stick began to faintly glow brown as Zack's soul left his body through his mouth. "My Lord, you have just reinforced that stick to be able to break steel once without breaking. As expected of a Demon Lord." Throughout the space of two hours I had successfully mastered to an expert level; Shadow movement, instant teleportation, intent erasure, heightened senses, magic reinforcement, techniques of the asura, presence erasure and Conquers' Haki. We proceeded into the forest to test the skills out as quickly as possible. Teleporting through the forest I encountered a group of 10 bandits. I hardened my body, erased my intent and heightened my senses. I teleported behind the smallest bandit who was wearing a black leather shirt and black leather jeans with some plain leather shoes. I thrust my right hand through his head killing him instantly. A pleasant sensation ran through my body as I felt the soul of the bandit enter my body. Without a sound I travelled to another bandits shadow using shadow movement and unsheathed his knife. He didn't know I was here since I had erased my intent, presence and aura. I took the knife and shoved it through his throat. The mans eyes filled with shock and fear pleaded me to let him live. I saw the light disappear from eyes and felt another soul enter my body. The bandits were still clueless as I slaughtered them one by one. I took the money and weapons of the bandits and set the slaves free from the wagon they had. There was a mother who was almost dead and saw me. She instantly realised I had killed the bandits and beckoned me to come to her.

I walked over to her as she began to speak. She looked like she was in her early 20's and was of the Elven race. "Child, I am sorry that you had to kill but do not be haunted by killing. Everyone dies and everyone fears death. This is natural. I have just become a mother and I am 19 years old. This child was not born from slavery and is my hope. I will die soon child and I see from your ears that you are from the Elf race. Can I entrust you with this child before I die?." The woman spoke,my eyes were brimming with mana and rage,I nodded affectionately as she grinned with relief. "Child, this babies name is Laura and she is 1 week old. Please treat her like your little sister. The bandits that kidnapped us were sent by the enemy lord of this territory. Child when I die please take my soul in you. I can sense that you are a Demon Lord my child." "Master! that Elves magic is off the charts, she would be on the scale of a hero but it was sealed for some reason." Zack practically screamed through my head. An idea popped into my head as I began to release my aura. The Elf had no look of fear on her face as I began to materialise my mana into this worlds alphabet. "I will look after like my little sister, I will sacrifice my self for her. I longed for a sister and now I have one. I will not lose her." I wrote. The elf smiled as she pulled my over to her before hugging me hard. "Please touch my head and extract my soul." My instincts took over as I extracted her soul. "Master when you extract a soul like a Hero's you inherit their memories and some of their will and mana. This Elf's soul is so kind and devote to her child that she thinks of you as her own child." Zack said with concern. "I know. She is kind and reminds me of my mother." I said. Her soul entered my body and my body glowed yellow. "You inherited her Light Magic which you didn't have before." Zack told me. My ears began to change from more demon like to more elf like. I picked up Laura and teleported home. It was dawn as soon I got home and my parents were looking for me. They sensed my presence and saw me walking towards the house covered in blood with a bay in my arms and a high ranking demon noble following after me. My parents realised what this meant as they looked at me with concern before rushing over to me. "Are you okay my child?" My mother said with concern. "I materialised my mana again and my parents were filled with fear at my aura. I wrote the following words. "Mother and Father I am fine. I awakened as a demon lord and this is my servant Zack. I was testing out my magic when I cam across bandits with eleven slaves. I killed them all and rescued the slaves. They were all dead except for one mother. She was a Hero who had given birth to Laura which is my little sister who is in my arms. I beg you to take her in and treat her like your own. Please." I pleaded with my parents who were teary eyed with shock, concern and love. They both nodded and I handed Laura to my mother. Straight after that I fell to the ground unconscious since my rage had used up all my mana.
