Chapter 8 - ZERO Prologue Origins V3 Ninomiya The Ones Above And The Ones Below Part 4

Ninomiya as a child hits a punch on the target. The target is his mother. She blocked him, "Weak."

She grabbed his leg and smashed him towards the ground. The dirt was everywhere, rocks broke and a large shockwave shook the mountains.

Shomei looks at her son, without mercy, "You sure are gifted son, but you should know the combat drills."

Ninomiya spits a broken tooth, "Again." He mutates.

Mother and son were practising combat.

He was still a kid, so he needed to learn how to initiate in proper combat. He was still a child, so he was still a lot off from his full potential.

As the world was in a state of war, Ninomiya won't be living a normal life anymore.

Kage looks at the sky, thinking about their next attack.

The sky had broken moons, and the remaining 4 moons were strong.

Their defences can only be broken by Ninomiya.

The demon empire had expanded a lot and was retaking the lands once their own.

The issue was, Kage was looking in the wrong direction.

The 12 Servant Festival, a festival celebrated by both races Demons and Gods.

A world that's beyond had festivals, they worshipped the servants who shed blood and sweat for peace.

And peace was broken by the gods.

It was unforgivable that the gods walk out of this.

The sparring finishes and the area beat up,

Ninomiya asks for a towel and a girl the same age as he comes forth with it.

Her name was Nagano, a girl with blond hair and 4 horns.

She was of the lower end of demon species.

Demons are of different species, ranging their power with the number of horns. The higher the horn count the more powerful they are.

One-horned, three-horned and four-horned along with six-horned existed.

There were only a few six-horned demons left around the whole planet of Orbit.

Shomei was one of the last remaining six-horned demons.

But Ninomiya was an exception, he was 2 horned.

An unusual mutation, his life was filled with mutations.

Mutations come in various forms, Ninomiya could switch between two forms. His demon self and the human self.

There is a rate of mutation among species.

The mutation was accelerated by the rate of 1-10,000,000 DNA strands to 1-10 DNA due to human genetics after the research on his son was completed.

A unique demon, he had extraordinary powers but he can't use the full potential of his powers yet.

Never could he.

The Body of a Demon, the brain of a human he had.

His mother was a demon so he got the blood of a demon, strength and durability along with incredible abilities beyond existence.

He was born strong with potential but his ways of using the powers were wrong.

His mom was weaker than him but she can beat him just using a few of her combat abilities.

A demon's energy is what keeps it alive.

No matter how many years it has passed, a demon won't die until it's the average lifespan of a million years had passed or it gets killed via external factors.

Ninomiya asks for some water from Nagano as well, a beauty beyond the reaches and he was attracted to her.

A childhood love it seemed.

The demon race was safe for the moment.

In this dark world filled with war, love existed in its simplest form.

[Somewhere]

It was dark, a room where several thrones existed.

Unknown figure-"He is posing a threat to the ecosystem, the mutations that he brings is enough to make the race above the law of nature."

Another Unknown figure-"Should we eradicate him? He is still small, he should be pretty easy to pick off."

A group effort of a bunch of people decides to let him go for now since their objective was something else.

He was just a side target.

Their leader brings a sword.

Dragging his sword, he says,

"If you lay a finger on him. You guys are dead. This is my land, I just watch it for entertainment you guys are balance keepers he is my favourite. The one who is above you all, and with me. Ninomiya Hotaru was his name huh? Interestingly enough good name for a demon. Makes sense doesn't it? The second shrine."

The people leave through a portal.

Ninomiya saw the horizon,

He felt the disappearance of many people.

A speechless moment took place between Nagano and him.

Ninomiya the prince of demons asks the four-horned demon girl, "Will you come to the festival with me?"

A day that comes every 12 years, the 12 servant festival.

A day of celebration between the races in war.

The day came, and demons enjoyed the celebrated

because the fear they were living in was eradicated.

A planet beyond science was existing where life could exist.

Ninomiya and Nagano danced in celebratory music, two young blood's in a love with each other.

A future king, and a lower race in an invisible bond.

Kage had no thoughts along with Shomei, all the demons are equal no matter the power gap.

The primordial demon taught the races to co-exist with each other, the book of demon history contained all the answers.

Shomei looks at Kage and smiles,

but that smile won't last long.

Shomei falls on the ground,

She had been shot- by the gods.

A religious festival was just ruined,

Their ships, in the skies in this holy night.

"SHOMEI SHOMEI!", shouts Kage with intense pain and tears.

He shakes her if she was still alive.

Ninomiya is utterly shocked along with the crowd, they don't realise the gods above.

But he looks up at the ships along with their 4 kings looking down at them.

Gods looking down at the Demons,

The one's above and the ones below.
