Chapter 1 - A lost soul

The dark and empty soul couldn't be revived until it's deciple was released in this wreched world.

The amount of blood shed was unbearable until the kingdoms had arrived with the solution of peace.

A normal boy with a normal job live in his home of tokyo. The name of this boy is kenta.

Another day at work really makes my head ache. Sitting at an office all day is so boring that I would rather work at a local market. Walking home is a pain too, sitting on a subway for 30 minutes is just my luck. As I sit down the cart starts to go, looking off into space I hear a distant scream.

It was a woman running into the cart, with a shady man afterward. She looked endangered and I wanted to help but, Im not the sorta type to be a hero. Though I thought to myself I can try to make an effort. I sprung up and tried to be breach the man "hey watch out" I yelled but, unfortunately he was bearing a knife underneath his coat. My body slowly dropped to the ground "he had stabbed me" I thought. As another person jumped in to help me but, all that pushing further twisted the knife in my stomach.

Dammit this hurts like hell am I going to die? A young man tried to tend to my wound but it won't do. Im already bleeding out, my vision is blurred, and I feel myself drifting away. So this is what it feels like, to die.

It feels warm and nice but dark at the same time. Thinking about my family made me cry. It was scary to think I would die to a knife wound. Hopefully that woman was ok. Its weird Afterward I started hearing some faint voices like spirits from my video game, one of a man with a dark but bright tone. The man appeared in front of me. He looked powerful, turning he looked directly at me and said "you will be spared today son" I was so confused. As he faded there were words that were muttered as he left "don't let me down, save everyone."

Save everyone what is that supposed to mean? I can't be a hero and Im already dead but, Still in the darkness I saw a shed of light from a person who was wearing a stylish Kimono emerged. He came into the darkness with me but I couldn't feel anything. He was misterious

his face was slim and looked very professional but had a nice light to him.

"Hello child I am Izanagi" he said. I was in shock "Izanagi like one of the gods!" "yes and I have a task for you" he said with a faint smile. "you will be reborn only if you can help me." "Alright but how can I help you im just a lowley human" "You are correct on human but lowley you are not. You need to trust me on this kenta" Izanagi said.

I nodded " good, now you need to go to another world for me an-" "another world! you mean those fairy tales in the manga that the hero gets to save everyone! sign me up!" I said yelled out of excitement. "no kenta you won't be considered a hero in that world but you will be considered a demon." I was so distraught "what but-" "let me finish please. The heros have used their powers to suppress the 3 kingdoms and made their own League."

" I don't have much time but you will need this" As he casted a spell on me my body started to glow. "You need to be careful those heros are twisted in the mind and show no mercy." His voice fading " This is a spell to help so you can understand the demon language an-" He disappeared. The wallowing wisp of that sound rocked me to my core, the thought of me being a demon was the least of my worries. What were people gonna think of me. The moment he disappeared my vision got blurred and I was sparkling with a light gleamed in a glittery type substance.

It Hurt really bad that light corroded and erupted in black smoke laced with a red sparkle. At this point I wanted to die again it was the worst pain I've ever felt. It had felt even the devil himself was corroding my entire existence. I Screaming in agony this was to much to handle though another voice talked but this time in my head. "he will have to do" said a strange, dark, and terrifying voice. It shocked me and I even felt my soul trembled for the moment.

The voice faded and I saw a light and was pulled out of the darkness by hands. "Isn't he so beautiful" A man said and there was a woma- wait wait wait I was birthed again?!? I guess Izanagi did say that, I couldn't talk and all I did was cry. Those people were my mom and dad, they looked so safisticated and noble. That reminded me I am a demon, but I look just as a human did in this world too. My mom and dad looked at each other and named me Kenta.

A few years have passed and I struggled for a little learning how to talk, walk, and to fully function again.

At this point I was three years old and life had seem normal but a luxury. I had a huge room like it was the size of my old living room in tokyo. I had nice clothes and caring parents but, one of my favorite memories with my old ones is when they took me out to eat with my little sister. The thought of losing that forever tore my core up that I stayed up every night. This happened for 2 weeks.

My new mother and father were with me all the time. More nurtering than my old mother did for me. My dad would take me in the woods and sing a song by this grave type pillar all the time. It was weird but non the less he was happy doing it. My mother was beautiful and caring she would always make me my favorite foods. She also taught me how to cook and boy was she good at it.

As the years went on I had turned 10, thats when father had started to teach me magic. At this point I had these magic gateways or they call them incantations which is the stuff I see in manga all the time. The manga lied again because I don't have to speak, the magic will just appear. Father would come to our luxurious backyard and watch me practice. At first I wouldn't be able to last very long but it feels like I can't run out of magic power.

I never went to school my mom taught me at the house when I was on Earth.

When I turned 15 my parents sat me down at the table while we had supper "so any new techniques?" father asked "no nothing yet but I was able to master the thing you call origin magic." As I was going on He dropped his wooden spoon on the plate and went pale in the face. "yeah I know you said it would be impossible but look at me, aren't you proud-" as I look up they were in shock as if they didn't know who I was anymore. "you mastered origin mag-gic?" he trembled " are you sure honey that was what you were doing?" mom followed up with and I looked at them and asked "is that a bad thing?"

I was really shocked and was nervous to hear their response " It is ... EXTRAVOGENT if you are able to use origin that means yo-" "You were chosen to be the demon kings vessel!" Mom cut him off but I think I understood this.

" so-o me as demon ki-ing?" Thanks a lot you stupid god I am a demon king! This was not in the deal idiot.

They told me to keep that a secret for the moment from the public because it was to early to announce.

The higher ups were in awe as the magic I used was higher than military grade and that was the best they had. Shooting out fire balls that took out entire villages and lightning that could take down the kingdom itself. They compared mine to be better that the heros by 100 fold!?!

Sitting in my room one day my mother and father came to retrieve me as there was a carriage waiting outside our house. The carriage look fancy one that I've never seen before. I took a look at mother and asked "where are we going and why is it look so fancy?" Mother replied "don't worry about it we are going to your ceremony as they took the time to prepare you to be the demon King."

The ride was smooth but I've never been outside the castle before everything was a new look for me. Even the people, there was Demi humans I've never seen one before so it shocked me. Arriving to the capital was an easy task my mother and father had passes for me to go through the gate. As the gates opened I saw a gleaming light shine from the castle above, it was astonishing.

As our carriage came to a halt two women that were demi-humans came to assist me when I got out. They got my things and took them inside the castle ; I was led to a room that looked fitting for a king well duh I am now the king. Mother and father was not allowed in with me as I went to the Royal Court they sat me down right in front of the 5.

The 5 was an elite team to match the demon King although it never works they strive to be the best of their occupations. They ordered the court to be in session and everyone sat down. One of the 5 was a girl with a royal blood that came from the previous demon King. Yes there is only one soul for the demon King but there has been previous bloodlines. She asked " what is your name boy" "My name is kenta mam." She looked at me with a stern look ; looked at the other 5 members and started to laugh.

"gosh you don't need to be so formal after all you are the demon King for your only here to simply enlist you." As I sat back and she started talking in the back of my mind I always thought what that One voice was. Back when I was with Izanagi I wonder if that was the demon Lord. "kenta?" as I looked up for my daze I muttered "yes?"

"Are you ready to accept these responsibilities?"

I thought about that for a moment I've never been asked such a question but I had to answer like a demon king. "yes I think I have what it takes to beat those pesky heroes." She smiled and asked me to walk up to the counsel. she took my hand and started speaking a language that I didn't know it sounds like some type of ritual then she took a dagger and stabbed my hand.

"Ahh what the hell! that hurts" "I know I know it's part of the ritual" she muttered as a seal appeared on my hand.

it looks sort of like a demon but scarier "welcome back demon king kenta" she said as the entire council with the audience bowed down. So this really means that I'm the demon King?!?
