Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 : Destruction is easier than creation

Aemond looked at the amount of people who choose to stay still to keep their religious beliefs even in the face of death .

At present there are 180 people present. over 120 people decided to die . only 60 people decided to go to right side to stay alive .

Whoever decided to go to right side faced harsh cursing and shouting.

" Son , don't go , that demon will soon kill you too ."

" Alosja , god will burn your soul for eternity."

" Those who are wanting to be part of that demons army will never go to gods kingdom."

" little girl go to right side . mommy will see you soon."

" Ha ha ha , they think the demon will let them live . Even if they don't kill you now , they will kill you soon ."

" Father come here , please ."

" Don't you dare to call me dad . You are no son of mine . God why my son turn to evil ."

Looking at the situation , Aemond thought,

Two - third of the people decided to die. They could have at least pretended to swore fealty to live but alas . Looks like I have underestimated this worlds people's religious faith .

Aemond looked around the people who wants to be part of the kingdom with smile .

From the looks of their eyes , at least half of them still hate me and didn't bother hiding it from me except those little children's.

Aemond suddenly had an idea . Children's are easy to teach . So it will be wise to nurture them . In the future they will be my strong support.

" Stop "

Aemond raised his hand

" Those who chose death , take them near the river . It will be easier for cleaning.

Oh , children's didn't had voting rights . So they will stay and will be part of my esteem kingdom ."

Of course, there were a lot of chaos, but the black robed guys successfully separated the childrens from their parents. The gnolls and goblins dragged the crowd towards the riverbank .

Although, the river was a kilometer away from here but you clearly hear heart lurching screaming of the people.

The childrens who can understand started to cry and rest were crying in a helpless manner.

"Citizens of my kingdom. This king didn't yet announced the kingdoms name . So ask you , if any of you has any good name , please speak ."

Aemond ignored the screaming of the people and continued to speak to his subjects.

A dark robed guys raised his hand and spoke,

" Lord wants to establish a kingdom , which is befitting of his grace. Lord came from the Lowlake demonic clan, so I propose ' Lowlake Demonic kingdom.' "

A goblin said with excitement like a child who seen a box of chocolate ,

" Lord , Lord , I have name a name . can I say it ."

Aemond liked his enthusiasm and said with a smile ,

" Of course, you are also part of my kingdom. "

The goblin puffed his chest and said ,

" Lord Aemond Kingdom."

Another black robed guy said ,

" Lord has the pure blood of demonic komodo dragons in his veins . So I think the kingdoms name should be ,

'Holy komodo dragon kingdom'. "

Like this there were a lot of suggestions like , Ultimate demonic kingdom, thousand blood alliance, demonic paradise kingdom, Unholy kingdom etc .

Aemond looked the people who verbally wanted to be part of his kingdom, but the didn't suggest a single name . They were just standing there lowering their heads .

Aemond had a name in his mind . It was 'America'. There were not special meaning just as he also didn't had any good name in his mind .

"My loyal subjects I have a very unique name . It represents something new , something that separate the new from the old. It also means self independence and freedom . It is 'America'.

My kingdom name will be

"Kingdom of America."

....

Sam, age 15 , a young man of this village . He has no parents alive . They said that they died because of a deadly plague when he was 2 years old .

He was raised by his uncle and aunt . They never loved him . They adopted him only to steal his parents small house .

Although shallow, but he didn't had any memory on which they ever loved him .

They kick him out of the house when he was only 5 years old .

He would do chores to feed his hungry stomach since he was 5. They forced him to work hard but didn't paid him much.

He once requested to the old village chief for his parents house , but he didn't bother listening to him . Even got beaten by the chiefs lackeys.

Sam didn't had any belongings to this village. He was planning to go to city next ,so he was saving his hard earned money .

Today, was a normal day for him .He was working in a house . Their house toilet was jammed. They promised him to give 2 piece of black breads if he can make it working.

This kind of chores was nothing to him . He has experience of doing dirty jobs since he was a child .

However, today his village was attacked by a group of monsters. Sam didn't go to the village gate to defend but wanted to run away while there was chaos.

Unfortunately, he was caught and forced to gather in the village square . He knew that he will die today . His only regret was that he didn't left earlier to the city . Than maybe he would stay away from this village.

But a miracle happened, the demon who was leading this monsters crowd decided to spare those who wants to become his new kingdoms citizens.

Sam didn't know much about demons . But he knew that demons are cunning and would lie to humans only to backstab them .

Even though it may be a lie , an illusion but it still was a hope . So he quickly came to the right side not heeding any curse of the villagers .

When the gnolls dragged his uncle and aunt to the riverbank, he felt sad and unconsciously cried .

"Why am I crying ? Didn't I always wanted them to die ? They tortured me since childhood and kick me out on that cold night ."

Soon he heard the demons voice and trembled in fear .

" My subjects, I maybe a demon . But believe me , I have a human heart . I will take you all under my protection. You all will help me creat a kingdom that will become the symbol of strength, power , property."

Sam didn't paid any heed to the demons words . He knew they were full of lies and traps . He just wanted to escape from this village.

....

Aemond looked at the remaining people. There are a total of 78 people here . 41 are children's under the age of ten . 15 men and 22 women's .

" Except the childrens, everyone start cleaning this massed up village. quick ."

Hearing the demons order . The villagers along with the monsters started to clean the village.

Aemond sat down on a rock and started to think the future course of the so called American kingdom.

Aemond wanted to save some people from getting killed, so he announced the kingdoms name without thinking deep . But now things come to this point and it is hard to move back .

He knows that building a kingdom will not gonna be a easy task . There will be a lot of dangerous in it . But if succeed, it will be equally rewarding.

Compared to ordinary humans , demons can live way longer . In his memory, his past clan patriarch was 3 thousand years old . So Aemond is confident that he can live till his so called kingdom comes to reality.

Aemond looked around the busy villagers who are busy cleaning and muttered,

" Destruction is easier than creation."
