The day she was passed in the blink of an eye for the small demon girl. When her fellow demons gave her food, she ate to her heart's content, almost to the point where she would have fallen ill if she were a human.
But she was a demon.
Demons had different bodies from that of humans. If anything, with the coursing of mana through their bodies, they were closer to being beastkin than actual humans due to the mana that coursed through their bodies like that of a beast.
Of course, they couldn't use mana like beasts. Instead, they used hand signs and sometimes even words to create spells.
After a while, the girl's eyes fluttered before slowly closing and sinking her into a slumber.
Her heart warmed for a moment, and for the first time since the moment of her birth, she had a dream that wasn't a nightmare.
For once, she could smile in her sleep.
When her eyes fluttered open again, she heard a distinct set of voices enter her ears.
