Chapter 122
“I have come to serve you, Your Majesty.”
One day, some man came and knelt before him out of the blue and said that.
At that time, Izzen wasn’t wearing a ridiculous getup like a tuxedo and a magician’s hat. He was just wearing a regular casual hoodie and jeans, with a beanie covering his hair.
“F**k, b******t.”
“Cough!”
He was a stranger, but Jaeha didn’t even bother to check his face and immediately kicked him, sending him flying. As soon as he heard what the title “Your Majesty” meant, a surge of anger rushed up.
He put all that anger into kicking the man who was sprawled on the ground, over and over again. He beat him with the intention of releasing all the stress that had built up. He beat him soundly with an intensity that showed he didn’t care if the man died.
He knew that the Demon King was the one who had impregnated his mother.
It was still a mystery as to why the great and noble Demon King would do such a thing with a lowly, insignificant low-class demon who was a bottom-feeder in the Demon World, but it seemed it wasn’t a big deal to the Demon King himself, as he never came back after that single copulation. Because of that, Jaeha had never even seen the man’s face and had believed it was just his mother’s bluff.
He probably would have believed that for the rest of his life if the Demon King hadn’t sent assassins.
After torturing an assassin and learning who was behind it, Jaeha shuddered. His father was so ashamed that he had a child with a lowly low-class demon that he wanted to eliminate the evidence. Moreover, even if he was a bottom-feeder, he was a being with royal blood. It would be better to eliminate him to avoid any future problems.
After that, Jaeha steadily took care of the assassins the Demon King sent. The assassins the Demon King sent became stronger and stronger. Though it wasn’t intentional, it was the perfect condition for Jaeha to grow in stages.
In the process, Jaeha learned that his royal-level demon abilities, which should have been diluted with the low-class demon’s blood, had been inherited by him as a mutation, completely undiluted. Jaeha naturally learned how to channel magic into weapons, using a kitchen knife he had at home. At first, he thought everyone could do it, but none of the assassins sent by the Demon King used such a technique.
Around the time that dealing with assassins became as natural as breathing, Jaeha learned that his mother had been cooperating with the Demon King.
Damn it, no wonder the assassins always found his hiding spot like ghosts.
If she had been a little smarter, she would have known that it would be better to use his existence to her advantage, but his mother, a low-class demon, was foolish and easily fell for the Demon King’s sweet talk. She believed that if she cooperated as she was told, the Demon King would take her to his castle and keep her by his side as promised.
Like an idiot, she didn’t know that she would be used to her heart’s content and then be abandoned.
Seized by a f****d up feeling, Jaeha went to find his mother. He didn’t even know if he wanted to resent her, get an apology, or take revenge. In any case, he felt he had to at least hear an excuse from her face.
But in the end, Jaeha couldn’t hear any excuses.
This was because humans had just invaded the Demon World, massacring the female demons, and his mother had also been killed. He saw his mother, brutally dead with explicit signs of having been r***d, but Jaeha felt neither anger nor sadness.
He just felt empty. A woman who was, unusually for a low-class demon, beautiful but dull and foolish. A pitiful life, used her entire life by chasing a pipe dream, only to die a gruesome death in the end.
Jaeha felt the urge to go to the Demon King and take revenge, but even that was impossible. The Demon King had also been killed by humans.
Moreover, his own life was now in danger. The humans were killing all the royals, including the Demon King. The only reason he hadn’t been threatened yet was because he was a bastard, so his existence was known late. It was only a matter of time before they found out about him and came to eliminate him.
Jaeha ran away. A little later, the humans’ pursuit caught up to him. But he barely managed to escape to the human world, all covered in wounds. Injured, starved, and exhausted, Jaeha lost his reason and ate the young human who happened to approach him. He was able to survive that way, but he was dominated by the human, forced to wear his skin and live among humans.
In any case, it was a truly f****d up life.
Jaeha hated demons. The Demon World was even more disgusting. He hated everything.
Living a lie was just painful; he had no complaints about living in the human world as a human. It was much better than the time when his life was threatened by assassins every day and he was betrayed by his mother.
So, talk of taking revenge on the demons or rebuilding the Demon World was all just b******t to Jaeha.
Furthermore, those who had neglected, treated him as an eyesore, and persecuted him just because he was the Demon King’s bastard were now trying to revere him as the only surviving royal, which was the peak of b******t among all that b******t.
That’s why he beat Izzen, who was spouting such b******t, and drove him out.
But, unfortunately, that incident gave Izzen an even stronger conviction. The cool-headed judgment to figure everything out from hearing “Your Majesty” once, the merciless action of immediately giving him a sound beating, the cruelty of nonchalantly inflicting violence on a man who was half-dead and dying. On top of that, even though he was a low-class demon hybrid, his royal-level demon abilities were not diluted at all…
Izzen was convinced that Jaeha was truly the right person to become the Demon King. He believed it was his destiny to become the Demon King.
So he clung to him like a burr. He would visit Jaeha frequently to persuade him, sitting in his house for a sort of protest. He came in and out so much that he even became acquainted with Jaeha’s parents. He shamelessly acted quite affably towards the parents, giving them the impression that he was Jaeha’s close older brother. He even managed to win them over quite a bit.
Jaeha, who was tired of beating him every time he saw him, eventually just started to leave Izzen alone. One of the reasons was that after watching him for a while, he seemed like a crazy bastard, but not a bad guy.
However, a diligent crazy bastard was the worst disaster.
Izzen, who was pestering Jaeha while secretly gathering the remaining demons in the human world and expanding his forces, planned a crazy conspiracy.
The Magical Girl Project.
A conspiracy to deceive human girls into becoming magical girls and to use their bodies to provide magic to demons.
