"You have to ask yourself that, Lucifer Enrique."
Oy, oy, why do I look like the most guilty person in this place?
All eyes are staring at me. Full of anger and hatred. Even Kazuhiko's gentle gaze also changed after that single horn Demon came.
"Hey, don't mess around. What should I ask myself..? About the horn? Forget it, you won't be able to provoke me in such a cheap way" I said trying to remain calm.
"Who knows, right?"
"Ah, you're driving me crazy. You said we'd meet again, right, okay, we'd be happy to see each other again."
I retreated from that place, right after Arce telepathically told me about Anne's worsening condition. His voice trembled with fear, full of worry, there was no way I would remain there with those obscure people.
After that, we went straight back to the Styx region. Anne's condition is pretty bad, we don't know who she's fighting with so it's hard to guess what happened to her. That's why we need the help of Healer and the doctor.
"Miss Anne was exposed to a powerful enough poison. Added to that, his injuries were quite deep and deep. Healer can heal his wounds but not his poison, Lord. We need an alchemist who is an expert in medicine and poison" Healer said, healing Anne's wounds.
"Alchemist huh? Ah, Styx doesn't have an Alchemist." I just realized it. Poison, it will usually have a great impact on other races, but not with the Demon because we have Poison resistance.
"True God, this poison is stronger than our body's resistance to poison. The one who attacked Miss Anne must have been someone strong" Healer continued.
"Do you have an Alchemist acquaintance outside the Styx, I'll go and bring him here" Arce said.
"I know someone, but he's a human being" Healer said, a little scared. Of course, the demons hate humans.
"Human? Don't you have any other Alchemist acquaintances??" arce rejected his idea.
"No, nothing else, sir."
"Ahh, dammit. Man, why must mana?!!" exclaimed Arce irritatedly, hitting the wall that was beside him.
"Ah, thanks for today Mr. Hook, please come every day to see Anne's next state"
"Good, Lord."
...****************...
"You must explain everything that happened to me, Lord"
Damn it, now Alvic is charging all the information and investigation I've done. Look at that sharp and stressful look from him.
Ah, I have no other choice.
"I found a clue about the man who killed my father, Alvic. I've been looking into it lately to find out the truth, but the situation gets more complicated the more I look for it" I answered honestly. Trying to dispel the information about the Single Horn Demon.
"God. Then you tried to hide it from me all this time, Lord?" Alvic looked back at me sharply.
Ah, I'm afraid of him. The former commander had a different aura. I'm distressed.
"Ahaha, I didn't mean to hide it. After all, I will reveal it when it is clear later. Ahaha" my laughter awkwardly tried to avoid her sharp eyes.
Meanwhile, Arce asked me for permission to exit the Styx and search for the human Alchemist. He said this.
"Forget any human or insect she is, I don't care about anything other than my sister getting back to health. Please give me permission, Lord."
Stubbornly, Arce immediately departed after obtaining my permission. He also left alone. Left me.
"Ohoho, it looks like you've met one of them, Lord"
I flinched and immediately stood up from my chair. Surprised by the arrival of someone in front of my window.
The guy with the straw hat. He's a-comin.
"Oh, please forgive me for coming suddenly, Lord" he said in shock because I was shocked too.
"Ekhem, it's nothing. What do you mean the single horn? Right, I met him" I replied honestly.
"Single horn yes. Lord, you can't talk like that when you know you're the only heir here. There are no descendants of Absolute Demon left but you, Lord" he continued and then sat casually on my window.
"Then you're on your own. If you're a Demon and know anything about it, why are you out there?" I started interrogating him. I'm curious enough, so can't wait anymore.
"Because I was forbidden to return to Styx. Your own father can't even help me. Well, it doesn't matter because he helps me out a lot. That's a big lead. You will definitely know about it immediately, well that's also if no one is hiding from you" he said.
"Can't get in, yeah, I understand. So why are you here?" I said with a thin smile. It came suddenly without me noticing and entered the Styx with high security. He is no ordinary Demon.
"Oh, I'm afraid you'll get carried away by what the fake says. I've met him and he's so good at bragging" he said.
"Ah, no need to worry. Because I am indeed the only descendant of the Absolute Demon."
Absolute Demon's. That's calling.
A Demon who was the strongest throughout the history of the Demon, united several races including humans to lead it. At that time, the atmosphere was so good, there was no division and discrimination or anything like that.
But, it didn't last long. Man, with his envious nature begins to manifest himself. Spreading this and that rumor, committing this and that crime.
Just then the humans angered Absolute Demon. Because humans have acted arbitrarily even to the point of injuring the citizens they protect with difficulty.
The furious Absolute Demon chased away the humans, he did not even injure a single human even though humans acted so badly.
Since then, the area he led returned to normal. Yet again human. They continued to make a fuss until many other races separated themselves from the Absolute Demon powerhouse.
That way, the hatred of the Demon race towards humans also began. Even during my current government.
Well, that Absolute Demon is my grandfather. His name is Akuma Enrique.
