Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

Thousands of years after the demons were killed and wiped out of the face of Earth. The humans slowly forgot about the war and all traces of it disappeared.

The Earth was slowly getting destroyed by the human race and the planet was getting overpopulated. So the government of the world came together and agreed.

Since the IASTA (International Aeronautics and Space Travel Administration), a company in charge of the science of spacecraft and space found a way to transfigure a planet and has already done so for the planet Mars, they had also found a way to travel through space by creating wormholes, which allows them to travel through space without spending millions of years on travel.

The government transfigured numerous planets in different galaxies and created spacecraft for carrying the people of Earth. The decision to leave the planet to allow it on its own was the best option for saving the mother planet.

Hundreds of years and resources later the entire planet was evacuated and they colonized these other galaxies. Different tribes and people came together to form the Baluvian Empire. But traveling through space wasn't easy. Many couldn't survive space travel. Radiation, extreme heat, extreme cold, and inadequate supply of food made space travel very difficult. The radiation also changed the genetic composition of a human.

Soon the gender was no longer male and female, but Alpha, Beta, and Omega. But there was another breed called Elite, they are even rarer than Omegas and have a higher title than Alphas. They are stronger, smarter, and more powerful than an Alpha.

When they got to the newly transfigured planets, they quickly adjusted and built cities on these new planets. Things were going great for a few centuries. That was until humans discovered they truly weren't alone in the universe.

Different alien races found the human race to be a rare delicacy and wanted to have a piece. Unfortunately, the human race was weak at that time and millions of people died. Then a few people managed to unlock power, they call it soul power, and had familiars have they are called to help them. The humans were finally able to fight back and push back the enemies. The leader, the strongest and smartest, became the new ruler since the leaders of the empire were killed.

Some humans were soon able to harness their soul power and found their familiars some being stronger than the others, they all are trained to protect their race. No matter their gender or status. There are even schools for training them.

In less than two hours, they got to the capital planet and hospital. All the patients were immediately sent to emergency rooms. After a day, because of advanced technology, everyone was taken care of in the spaceships, and wounds and fractures were taken care of, although they were not so serious because they had already been treated

The patients' families were soon allowed to pick them up, Phoenix's parents didn't come though. That wasn't surprising to Phoenix, since they don't care whatever happens to him since he's not dead.

No, instead the one who came to see to pick him up was a middle-aged woman with black hair tied in a tight bun, wearing a suit. She looks so serious. "My name is Jessica. I was sent by his highness, Augustus, to come and pick you up," she said seriously.

'She's scary.' Phoenix cried in his heart, he was shaking a bit. Even her emotions are as serious as she is. "Okay," he replied with a strained smile.

They leave the hospital in a hover car, they drove through the city, and Phoenix couldn't help but look outside. He has seen it in the original owner's memory but he never expected it to look this fascinating. Jessica narrows her eyes and looks at Phoenix suspiciously. 'Is this boy truly the one I was sent to pick?' she asked herself. She checks the hospital report in her hands. 'A part of his? hair suddenly turned white. That's indeed strange.'

Phoenix noticed Jessica was staring at him and when he looks at her, she was no longer staring. "Is there something wrong?" he asks her.

Jessica snaps out of her thoughts, "No, why do you ask?" she asked.

"You were staring at me," he replies.

"Sorry, I didn't know." she apologizes. Phoenix wasn't convinced but that wasn't his problem right now. So he goes back to looking at the city as the drive-by.

'Crap, he caught me staring at me. I have to be more careful' she looks at him one more time. His physique doesn't say he's a beta, he almost looks like an Omega with his 5'3ft height and childish behavior and petite stature with soft features. But his aura is that of a Beta. Very calming. At the same time, the way he caught her staring, even though she was careful, makes his senses seem like that of an Alpha. 'Seems like your fiancé is an interesting one, your highness.'

Forty minutes later.

They arrived at a mansion. And as disappointed Phoenix was for the trip to end, he wanted to see the city the humans built right before he turns them into rubbles.

But, this mansion is beautiful but doesn't a prince usually live in the palace? Jessica gave Phoenix a tour of the house, there was a kitchen, a dining area, a training room, a library, and finally his bedroom. "His Highness wouldn't be able to see you today, so he says you should find a way to entertain yourself. If you're hungry, there's someone who is preparing food in the kitchen right now," she instructed, and before leaving. "Also there are some clothes in the closet," she said then left him alone in his bedroom.

"Finally alone at last," he said before jumping on the bed and lying on the bed. He almost shed tears. "Human beds are the best things ever created outside of food," he said, but what he said was muffled into the bed. He heard his stomach growl. "I should eat. But the bed doesn't want to let me go." he kept snuggling into the bed then his stomach growled again.

"I hear you, I hear you," he said. "This lord is going to have a bath first, then eat. So stop complaining stomach worms," he said talking to his empty stomach.

When he entered the bathroom though that was a different story entirely. "What kind of dark magic is this?!!" You could hear Phoenix's scream throughout the mansion.

Phoenix came out of the bathroom, shivering. "I'm never going back in there again. I almost died."

What happened is our dear protagonist doesn't know how to operate a shower and he's traumatized. From hot to cold to freezing.

When he got out of his room, he couldn't help being embarrassed though, because any servant he came across seemed to have a weird smile on their face. 'Everybody knows.'

He got to the dining area and food was served there. Forget the bathroom incident the food looks good. He took a bite and his taste bud exploded. It tastes so good. Why did want to destroy the humans in the first place? Their food tastes so good, it almost tastes like.

He felt a sharp pain in his head. "Do you like your food, my dear Lucifer?" a woman's voice could be heard. He sees his younger self, seating down with a plate of food in front of him. A middle-aged woman, who looks like a female version of him, touched his hair as he ate.

"Yes, thank you, mum," he replied with a wide smile.

"Mum," he said reaching out to touch her, before being drawn back to reality. "It tastes just like mum's," he said. Then he felt some wetness on his cheeks. He had been crying. "Why am I crying? This is ridiculous." That's right he remembers why he wants to destroy the humans now. They took his family away from him.

His aura had completely changed. It was no longer a calming aura. Instead, his aura was almost suffocating.

The chef entered the room with dessert. She noticed Phoenix's dark aura. 'Did something happen?' she asked herself.

"Young Master Phoenix," she called him, Phoenix didn't notice the lady when she came in, it was until she touched him that he snapped out of his trance and looked at her.

Her aura is just like his mother's, is this her reincarnation? "Are you okay? Is there something wrong with the food?" she asked, her aura is extremely soothing. She must be a beta.

"Are you the one who prepared it?"

She nodded. "It tastes delicious," he said but his voice cracked a bit. "What's your name?"

"Rosetta," she replied with a smile. Not the same name but her aura is the same. "Do you want some cupcakes, too?" she asked. "I know you aren't allowed to have sugar, so I made some sugar-free cupcakes," she said.

He isn't allowed to have sugar in this body either. But she made sugar-free cupcakes, "Are you fairy in disguise?" he asked.

"Don't you mean angel?" she giggled.

"No, fairies are nice." he said, then he murmured, "Unlike some angels..."

"What was that?" she asked.

"Nothing." Phoenix quickly replied. He looks at the cupcakes. They look so good. He reached out to grab one but his hand was smacked.

"No dessert until you finish your food," she said sternly.

'Nooo!' he screamed in his heart.

He waits for her to leave but she doesn't seem to be leaving anytime soon. "Don't think I'm leaving you alone here with these cupcakes, young master Phoenix."

'She knows.' Phoenix looks at her in horror. 'I want to go back to being king of demons'
