“This.. A throne room?” Demon Oz mutters when he saw the back of a throne as he lifts his body up.
“Yes, my king. This is my throne room. My hell’s gate is connected with my throne, it’s placed here because this room, this throne room is the safest room in this kingdom,” Paimon explained to Demon Oz as she kneels in front of him.
“I see..” Demon Oz observes the room as he spread his mana towards his surroundings while having his eyes closed.
Paimon’s castle is huge, while not as huge as Oz’s imperial castle, it could still be considered huge if it’s compared to human kingdoms’ castles. The defense of the castle is very strict, even though Paimon had left the kingdom for quite long, Demon Oz couldn’t help but praised their loyalty towards Paimon.
The royal castle of Paimon’s kingdom is in the middle of the capital as well, while four military barracks stationed at the four sides of the castle, making strict surveillance around the royal castle.
Demon Oz was surprised to see how well-trained Paimon’s subjects are, Demon Oz could sense several presences with strong mana, but none of them seem to have tried to usurp the throne at Paimon’s absence.
(I see.. It could be said that she is the demon realm’s symbol of peace, huh..) (Demon Oz)
“What a good kingdom you have here, Paimon,” Praised Demon Oz.
Demon Oz’s small praise sent a wave of warmth towards Paimon’s heart. She finally heard the words she hoped to hear from another strong demon.
An acknowledgment.
An acknowledgment towards her hardship to make a country of peace, with citizens that have no thirst for war. She had been fighting for hundreds of years to make this kingdom, and she had finally succeeded at making one.
But the journey didn’t end there, lots of people oppose her opinion of making a country of peace. Most of the powerful demons that reside at the demon realm harbor a great thirst for war. All of them believed that demons are a race of wars, not having a thirst for battle is like refusing their origin.
Knowing that she had lots of enemies, Paimon used her strongest weapon.
Her brain.
She defeats everyone who openly wages war with her, and defeats them all with the minimal amount of casualties on her side. With powerful generals and outstanding strategy, Paimon ascended as one of the great demon kings of the demon realm.
That day, Paimon realized. As she had succeeded in protecting the kingdom and the citizens that she loved, it’s the destiny of the one that ranked as one of the great demon kings to help the demon emperor to conquer the human realm.
So that night, under the red moon, Paimon silently whispers her wish.
“If only there is, a country of peace, where every race could live happily and peacefully in harmony under a strong and a just ruler. Where the ruler is feared by the world and spread peace towards the world wherever he goes as he bends the line of fate. I’ll give him my everything if he could bend the fate of my people’s and mine..” (Paimon)
Little does she know, while the living sleep, the night awake.
The silent night heard her silent plead, and Paimon’s body suddenly got covered with countless blue particles.
As if got swallowed by the space, the scene in front of Paimon suddenly changed to endless darkness. The darkness suddenly disappears and showed Paimon a certain man. Paimon didn’t know why, but she could feel what the man’s felt and thought.
Paimon followed the life of the man, from when he lives at a world filled with no mana until he teleported to the world that should only exist at the fantasy book in his world.
Paimon watched how the man built his empire from a scratch and was shocked by how quick his progress is. She needed several decades to build her kingdom, but this man doesn’t even need a half-decade to built a huge empire and he built it at the legendary forest of Everdeen where even the demons fear the forest that possesses countless mysteries.
He reason and sometimes force his way out. His absolute confidence, powerful strength, and boundless wit made him convince people to be his ally with ease. As if her wish is heard by the gods, the man spread peace and harmony wherever he goes. Exactly like the kind of man she wished to exist in her prayers.
And finally, the man made several clones of himself.
Suddenly Paimon’s scene focuses on the demon’s clone. Until his figure suddenly disappears too, leaving a single word.
“Come!”
Paimon could still remember the scene as if it’s yesterday.
“Paimon. Paimon!” Demon Oz’s call finally reached out to the spacing of out Paimon.historical
Finally back to reality, Paimon responds in panic, “Y-y-y-yes, my king!?”
“It’s unusual for you to space out, Paimon,” Lucifer said in worry.
“Are you hungry?” (Beelzebub)
“She’s not you, Beelze,” (Adramelech)
“I-I-I’m fine!” Paimon said with her face slightly flushed in shame.
“It’s good that you’re fine, but someone is coming towards here, Paimon, what do you think we should do?” Demon Oz said indifferently.
“Someone?” Paimon asked as she figures out the owner of the presence that approaching the throne room quickly.
(That is.. A chance!) (Paimon)
“P-Paimon..?” Demon Oz couldn’t help but call out Paimon with a question mark imprinted on his face.
It’s normal for him to be surprised and confused as Beelzebub, Lucifer, and Adramelech felt the same way towards Paimon that suddenly clings to Demon Oz’s right arm.
“It’s fine, my king. It’s one of my plans, this will help stretch our options at the demon realm. Please follow my script, my king,” Paimon said with her usual calm tone, but happiness is obviously overflowing from her.
“Just what kind of plan-” (Demon Oz)
Slam!
The door opened with a great force, making a loud sound and cutting Demon Oz’s words. But despite the loud sound, the door opened slowly and didn’t break, showing how heavy and strong the materials of the door is.
The door slowly opened and finally reveals three figures. Two of them have a huge body, but smaller than Adralemech’s. Demon Oz’s attention focuses on the one in the middle, he looked aged and has a decent body size, but he possesses the most menacing aura than the others.
When the three of them saw the sight of Demon Oz and co, they furrowed their eyebrows for a moment, but they approached Demon Oz and co and immediately kneeled in front of Paimon.
“Welcome back, your majesty. I hope you’re well,” Said the huge demon at the right.
“Welcome back, your majesty. But could you introduce us who are those men that are standing together with you, especially the man that you’re holding..” The huge demon at the left openly shows his hostility towards Demon Oz.
“Yes, I’m back. Thanks for welcoming me immediately, Thran, Khran, Father,” (Paimon)
(F-Father!?) (Demon Oz)
“Like how you ordered me to, I’ve finally decided on who I will marry, father, and the other three demons are my new companions,” Paimon said with a huge smile.
Looking at Paimon’s face, the one that Paimon called father stands, and the huge demon at both sides follows suit.
“I see..” Paimon’s father mutters as he sizes Demon Oz from up to below.
“So it means that you’ll reject Taros’ proposal, am I right, Paimon?” Paimon’s father said with a firm voice that carried a huge pressure.
(I see.. So he’s one of the reasons why the kingdom could still stay strong without their queen.. It’s because the former king temporarily took control of the kingdom, and he’s more than powerful enough to be their protector, huh..) (Demon Oz)
“This guy? Is he more powerful than Taros? There’s no way an unknown demon like him is stronger than Taros,” Thran that had been showing his hostility towards Demon Oz raises his voice.
“Don’t you-” (Paimon)
“It’s fine, Paimon,” Demon Oz cut Paimon that about to lecture Thran.
“What? Do you think you’re stronger than be only because the queen favored you? As the personal royal guard of the former demon king of this kingdom, I, Thran, won’t lose to an unknown demon like y-” Thran mocked Demon Oz.
“Lucifer, Adramelech, Beelzebub, stop. He’ll die,” (Demon Oz)
“Thran, stop, you’ll die,” (Paimon’s father)
Demon Oz and Paimon’s father said at the same time.
“What an interesting fellow you have here, Paimon..” (Paimon’s Father)
