Synopsis
I am the one that is feared by all. Parents tell their naughty children stories about my various 'endeavors'. Grown men piss themselves merely looking at me. Yes.... I am the demon king....no, was the demon king. I'm being killed by the hero right now... at least that's what she thinks is happening. I could break her like a twig with just a wave of my hand. But I'm not taking this fight seriously. I'm going to act out my death so that I can finally be free of this cursed title. I don't even remember why I became the demon king in the first place.... You're wondering what I'm going to do after my so-called death. Explore the world, I guess...and when there's nothing left to see. I'll probably just kill myself.

Chapter 1 - DEATH TO YOU !

My name is Jasmine Smith and I am a hero.

Just a few months ago, I was just a normal office worker but then I got hit by a truck and came to this world.

A world tormented by a single man.

The 'Demon King'.

Countless kingdoms over the years have summoned and aided heroes to kill him... but none have succeeded. He mercilessly killed all of them.

There were many legends about him.

Some said that he was centuries old.

Some said that he was a god who fell from divinity.

Some said that he's a hideous monster.

Many more rumors were said about him. Nobody could actually confirm all these rumors since all that have faced him and his mighty army.... did not survive to tell the tale.

But there was one thing was clear....

The Demon King has to be eliminated.

I can hear the sounds of battle behind me, but I ignore them and concentrate on the door in front of me. The door that could lead to my demise or greatness. Yes, beyond this door.... was the demon king.

' This is it.', I remind myself of all the hardships I had to go through to reach this point. The friends that sacrificed themselves for my sake, the time I spent training... it was all leading to this very moment.

I push the obsidian door wide open.

~~~~

'' Ah... you're finally here.'', I say while comfortably sitting on my throne.

I had gotten bored waiting for the new hero, who had come to kill me.

…..

Yes, that's right.... I am the demon king, Kaecilius.

In a few moments, I'm going to be killed by this hero.

The new hero seems to be a women, her hair was crimson and eyes were of a purple hue. She wore a red armor that matched well with her hair. She held a longsword in her hands.

I use one of my skills to see her status.

Hmmmm.

How weak.

I'm going to have to hold back a lot if I want to make her believe that she really killed me. This all feels so tiresome... but there is no other choice.

I don't want to be the demon king anymore.

~~~~

I see him as soon I open the obsidian doors.

He was sitting in his throne in a carefree manner.

'' Ah... you're finally here.', he says once he catches sight of me.

The Demon King, Kaecilius.

Out of the twelve demon kings, he is said to be the oldest and strongest. He's killed almost all the heroes that have come after him... yet looking at him now. I'm confused.

He didn't look old nor was he a monster...

He was human, just like me.

His white hair reached his shoulders and his piercing red eyes made me feel small.

He was a monster, a beautiful monster.

' What am I even thinking ?', I chide myself for even thinking such a thought.

'' You were a human ?'', I ask him with my longsword pointed at him.

'' I always have been a human, child.'', his voice held a certain superiority to it.

'This is it.', I tell myself and run towards him.

'' I'M GONNA KILL YOU!''

~~~~

The new hero sure is energetic.

But I'm a little confused at her previous question though.... I thought that everyone knew about the fact that I was a human.

Hmmm, then again a it's almost been seventy years since I've gone outside my castle. I mean I didn't really see the need.

People seem to have forgotten some things about me. Well it's not like it matters either way.

She's screaming something and running towards with her longsword in hand. I slowly get up from my 'throne' and take the hilt of the sword that was lying near my throne.

I block her attack easily.

I need to lessen my power even more... geez, heroes these days are quite weak huh?

She's pushing me back now, I can see my reflection in the steel of her longsword. The moment I see myself in her longsword, my stats become visible to me,

--------------------

I haven't seen my status in awhile.

It brings back many memories.

I could have increased it even further... but I didn't because I like multiples of 10. I know that it's weird but there's nobody stronger than me in this realm at least..

So it doesn't matter either way.

She forces me into the throne and raises her sword high up in the air and-

' Slash'

Her sword pierces my heart.

I can see that she's panting heavily. Was it too much for her ?

Who cares ?

'' Well done.'', saying this I slowly close my eyes.

I hope she believes this crap..

'' Goodbye, Fallen Hero.'', she says closing my eyes.

Oh ?

Now that I think about it.... in the beginning I was a hero too wasn't I ?

How the times change...

She checks for my pulse, but she won't find it since I have no pulse as a side effect from one of my traits.

After making sure that I was dead... she falls down next to me, due to exhaustion.

Ok then, it's time to wrap things up.

My body breaks down into butterflies and flies out of the castle.

I can hear that hero gasping behind me... but she probably thinks I passed on or something. Even if she doesn't.... can anyone even stop me ?

I only put on this act so that it would be easier to travel and explore.

Yes... that's right.

Don't misunderstand. I don't care for travelling or exploring on that matter.

I want to fulfill a promise to someone and to do that... I have to travel all around the world. After I'm finished with that I'll probably just....

Kill myself.
