As the count thanked me I teleported home. I was tired and had an urge to kill and was pretty sure that I was leaking bloodlust. As I landed outside the opening to the forest I thought to my self that I'd go home and relax with Laura before heading to Settlement every day after today. As I took a step inside the opening my mana sense picked up 60 elf like mana signals, and strong ones at that. There were 5 that were significantly stronger then the rest but I was confident I could take them on. As I proceeded closer my head rang with new spells I had subconsciously invented in the previous fight. One of them was very useful for assassination and interrogation and it's name was 'emotional sensory'. I cast the spell and immediately felt several emotions rush into my head. Hostility, fear, pride, cowardice, hope, despair and killing intent. I honed this skill further while erasing my presence and mana, casting an invisibility skill and using a new haki spell called 'magical observation'. Haki spells are mana skills that include haki in them. The skill 'magical observation' allowed me to see mana, thermal heat and adjust the length of my eyesight as well as erase objects from my eye sight. I erased the path of 15 elves in front of me to my front door. My mouth dropped open and my body began to tremble as I saw a man from Sylvie's memories.
My heart dropped at the sight of Sylvie's father. My emotions were already at their limit with all the stressful fighting from before but by looking at the man I could feel that my emotions were about to burst out of my body. I felt a chill run down my spine as I saw my mother being held by two elves with a seal on her that disabled her magic while my father was hiding my little sister behind his legs from the elves. I could feel the King's intent from where I was and I knew what he was here for. "Laura." My mind said numbly. My father began to raise his voice saying things like "She is my daughter," and "you can't have her!" The king unsheathed his sword from his belt and pointed it at my father. His voice boomed through the forest as he said "She is not of your lineage. She is elven royalty, now hand the child over." "Waga Aruji-sama, I can not show my self in the presence of your self right now as I am a 'lower being' meaning I usually destroy things I carry hatred for around me. Inadvertently I would kill everyone in a 100km radius around you." "It's okay. Just stay in my mind and hide your presence." I said numbly, I have some stuff I need to do.
[Settlement in the near future]
[Count Sinclair's Pov]
"My what a day it has been my colleagues!" I said. "Yes it has been Sinclair. Do not forget that tomorrow we will be holding the event to choose who goes to what magic school." The head master of 'Red Sun Magic School' said. "Of course! Now lets move to the woods. I want to show you a beast that I captured recently." I said boastingly. We proceeded to the forest when a chill ran down all our spines. The aura we felt was similar to that of the Demon Lord I encountered before. "Let's go take a peek at this monster shall we?" Mystique (Red Sun Headmaster) said. We rushed over to an opening in the forest only to see dead elves with missing limbs who wear wearing white high grade armour and cloth showing their royal status on the ground. A student representative of the Red Sun academy puked at the sight of a blonde female elf clutching what was left of her stomach groaning. Mystique ran over to her and questioned her about what was going on. She answered with the following words. "A kid got angry. He was a Demon Lord. I don't want to die!" She said while crying. Her body went limp after saying her last words as the light left her eyes. In this era a kid of 6 or 7 with high talent could take down 100 trained men with high difficulty. The instructor turned and entered the clearing in the forest only to feel the chill of death run through her whole body. She stared at a four year old kid sitting on top of a pile of elves with his sword under his belt.
[Current Time]
[Alex Luthor's POV]
My body went numb as I saw my father's right hand get chopped off by the elf's sword in the blink of an eye. I removed the invisibility skill and allowed my presence to seep out as I walked towards the King of elves. The birds flew out of the trees and all of the mana beasts awoke from their slumbers only to be too scared to move. The King turned around to look at the small four year old kid with light grey skin and pointy elf ears leaking a trail of purple black aura behind him. The King batted an eye and turned around to approach him. He decided to assert his dominance and ordered his guards to apprehend me. "Alex! Run away from here! You have to survive!" My mother and father screamed in sink. The King smirked as the guards approached me. Suddenly a third aura was unleashed from my body and when the King and his guards saw it their faces paled. A golden aura was leaking out of me and was shaping into Sylvie's shape behind me. "Get this bastard! He killed my daughter!" The King roared. Two guards ran at full force towards me. Instantly I cut off their arms and watched as their eyes began to become bloodshot and water. As they opened their mouths to scream their heads were already on the floor.
The elves bodies dropped to the floor and their souls were sucked into my body. My mother and father stood their dazed at me as their image of the innocent genius little body was shattered. Every single guard sprinted towards me with their swords and spears. I engaged in a battle that lasted no more then 5 seconds as I dismembered and disembowelled every single guard with no care in the world. The King froze as his Wife and children ran out of the cart to stand in front of him to protect him. "Move." I said releasing my haki and allowed my rage to seep through my eyes only. I sucked back in Sylvie's soul and watched as all but the kings youngest daughter of 6 moved. She was cute for her age and would definitely grow into a beauty in the future. (Just wait it gets better lmao) Her legs were trembling as I walked towards her. I smiled at her as I thought she could be a good friend in the future. I looked at the king with no emotion in particular and proceeded to speak to him. "Now your Majesty, what brings you to my families home?" I said coldly. The King's face began to regain colour as he said "We have come to collect my grand daughter from you." He said. "Well unfortunately, I can't really let you have my little sister since I promise her mother that i'd take care of her before she died." I stated as I began to leak my bloodlust. "Oh, she died huh. That is truly a shame but as I have always cared and loved my daughter I am sure she would trust me more with her child." The King said. My eyes and left palm flared a deep reed colour as I heard these words. "Also young one, I will allow you to have my youngest daughter's hand in marriage. Her name is Gwen and she is six years old." The girl shuddered as I stared at her. Her previous courage was commendable I thought. "When Sylvie asked me to extract her soul to sue for me to evolve into a True Demon Lord I inherited her magic and some of her memories. I can say for sure that you don't care for any of your children. You sold Sylvie to slaves and you think you can leave alive?!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. The Kings face paled and his children and wife stepped away from him. "How could you! She was our child!" The wife screamed with tears in her eyes. She immediately freed my mother from the guards and moved her and the rest of both families way from the King.
The King turned around and paled even more. He tried to think of an excuse to say to his wife but nothing came to his mind. He dropped to his knees begging to kill his family instead of himself. My eyes fixated on him as I teleported to his side. I used his shadow to bind him as I teleported into the mountain range. I unsheathed my pure white sword from my belt and cut off his arms and legs. I amplified the sound of his screams so that his family could hear it. I used flame magic to burn him and then I used healing light magic to revive him from the dead. I drowned him in toxic water, infected him with diseases, increased his ageing over and over again until he was begging to be killed. I then handed him a knife and forced him to commit seppiku. Before he died he said to me that if I spared his life he would allow me to enter the elf kings treasury. I coaxed the key out of his soul realm and then made him slit his stomach. I made it take 6 hours for him to die while constantly defecating and crying.
I teleported back home with the kings body in hand and thrust it on the ground. I then summoned Zack since my hatred had dispersed from my mind. Zack told me to cultivate in order to evolve to the next Demon Lord rank. I sat on the Kings back and cultivated. The mark on my left palm began to glow as my mana core expanded. The paths from my palm began to grow up my arm to stop at my shoulder. They had different colours for each line and were visibly radiating mana. At that time I felt a new presence that was completely out of my league approaching. I opened my eyes to see that the elf family was talking with my parents over tea and had lost the fear and hostility towards me. The youngest girl of the elf family looked at me with admiration since she knew what her father was actually like. I moved my head to the side and stared at the young dark haired woman wearing a black gown like the witches in fairy tales wore. That encounter changed my fate for the second time in my life.
