Chapter 3 - Elve Demon 1

"Fine!"

Daku responded to the demon lord, his heart pounding as he weighed the consequences of his decision.

"Very we-"

"But how am I sure you won't breach the deal?" Daku asked, after all, he wasn't going to put his life on the line if all theses were all a scam.

"Don't worry human boy, we shall have a blood deal then… Whereby both our blood shall sign a black sheet… if either of us is unable to commit to our end of the deal, then we shall suffer an eternal burn!"

Denchi said as a black sheet then appeared out of thin air, and Daku bit his tongue slightly in pain as he felt some blood leave his hands and flew into the black sheet before it then disappeared.

"Done, Now no more time to waste," Denchi said.

Just then, a mysterious purple portal came to life before Daku's eyes.

"Step into the portal, Daku. Embrace the adventure that awaits you on the other side," the demon lord commanded, his voice silky and enticing.

Daku hesitated, unsure of what awaited him in this unknown realm.

But as the demon lord's words echoed in his mind, he couldn't resist the allure.

Taking a deep breath, he mustered his courage and cautiously stepped into the swirling purple portal.

Unbeknownst to Daku, Tana had been searching for him tirelessly.

She was told by Miss Rina to gather all the members, but she had noticed that he was nowhere to be found.

So she looked for him around, asked the other members, but none knew where he went.

As she continued searching for him, she happened to see a rather strange cave.

It wasn't on the flyer, so what the hell could it be?

'Could Daku be in there?" She asked herself as she then walked into the cave, turning her phone light on.

As she entered, she was mesmerized by it, but she didn't forget why she was here and continued searching for him.

"Weird boy? Weird boy!?" She called out, but she heard nothing. It was so quiet that even a pin dropping on the ground could be heard.

She scoured every corner of the cave, hoping to find any trace of Daku.

Just as she turned a corner, her eyes widened in astonishment as she witnessed Daku walk directly into the shimmering purple portal.

"Daku! Wait!" Tana called out, her voice filled with urgency. With a surge of adrenaline, she sprinted after him, trying to catch up before it was too late.

'Where the hell is he going to?" She asked with a concerned look.

But as Tana reached the portal, her outstretched hand barely grazed Daku's shoulder.

In a moment of confusion and disorientation, the purple portal engulfed them both, swallowing them into its depths.

As they traversed through the portal, Tana could feel a strange energy surrounding her. Colors swirled, time froze, and then finally, they emerged in a completely foreign world.

They found themselves standing in a breathtaking landscape, with vibrant forests, towering mountains, and a sky the color of an endless twilight.

Tana's eyes widened in wonder as she took in the beauty of this new world, while Daku looked around with a mix of curiosity and disbelief.

'So this is the Demon realm? Not so demoney as I imagined!' he thought.

"Daku, where are we? What just happened?" Tana asked, her voice filled with equal parts excitement and apprehension.

But Daku was silent and still shocked to see her here, "Y-you, what are you doing here?" He shouted.

Frowning, Tana responded as she placed her hands on her waist, "What am I doing here? I should be asking you that question! Where the hell have you been and where the hell are we? I never knew there was another place connected to the mountain!"

She said as she looked around her surroundings. It looked so different and weird.

Sighing, Daku broke the shocking news to her, "We aren't in the mountains anymore, we are in the Demon realm now!"

Tana's eyes widened in astonishment. "The Demon realm? What the hell are you talking about? How did we end up here?" Concern mixed with curiosity in her voice as she took in the surreal surroundings.

Daku scratched his head, trying to make sense of their situation. "I… I made a deal with the demon lord. I couldn't resist the temptation, but I didn't expect you to get pulled into this as well."

He said as he closed his eyes shut slightly, expecting her to turn red in anger or chase after him, but then he was surprised as she wasn't looking at him at all.

Instead, her head was looking up, fixed on a creature with wings which flew in the sky.

It was red and looked like a dragon, but what was peculiar about it was the fact that it wore a brown shirt and a bag wrapped around its body.

It was like a person but a dragon.

'Ah! The typical Demon realm, how I've missed such delightful things to gaze upon!' He heard Denchi say.

As he looked at Tana whose eyes twitched slightly and with that, she fainted.

"H-ah Tana!" Denchi shouted as he quickly ran towards her.

'Sigh! It seems like the little lady would have it hard settling in'.

**

It was dark, as night had arrived not too long after they had Isekai Into the Demon realm.

Daku had found an incomplete building for them to stay in, since Tanaka was still unconscious.

But some time later she woke up, and his face was the first thing she saw.

Now with her hands folded, and her legs crossed, she sat opposite Daku as she said, "Now explain, where the hell are we and why are we here?"

She asked, her brows twitching and with that, Daku sighed.

He explained to her all about how he had met Denchi and how he had made a deal with Denchi.

"How the hell are you certain that he'll commit to the deal?" She asked.

As she then heard a voice from within her, 'Don't worry little lady, I made a blood deal with him, I won't break the deal and will fulfill his wish after his side of the deal is done'

Denchi said as Tana hopped up in surprise, "W-who said that?"

Standing up, Daku replied, "That's Denchi, it seems like he has allowed you to be able to listen to him!"

'Indeed, since she was mistakenly brought here, you will have to take responsibility for her boy… And for Tana, if she decides to go back to her world, I'll allow her to leave but…'

He cut short his words, leaving Tana curious, "But what?"

'But if you decide to accompany Daku in his mission for revenge, then I'll also grant you any wish you desire, be it wealth or health… Say it upon me and I shall grant unto you!'

He spoke as Tana then calmed down.

Any wish? Did he really mean it, but how is that possible?

Seeing as she wasn't replying, Daku pressed his lips together as he said, "Please send her back to her world, she can't accompany me… It's too dangerous!"

He said to Denchi, he didn't to bring her into this. He wasn't even sure if he would be alive to see the next sun, less of having someone else to take care of here.

With that, he turned around ready to leave but stopped in his tracks at Tana's next words.

"I'll stay."
