23《Layers of Hell》

"I'm fine Aurum, don't worry"

I looked after my family as I calmed him down.

Them...

I thought they were normal people. However, they were very strong people.

They are people. It was strange that they were defending me as a demon. And seeing me as their real daughter.

My guess is that they moved to this abandoned planet as a strong family for rest or something. But they accept me as girls..

It was sincere.

I thought of my brother Lukas. I killed him for betraying me. Alright..

Did he really betray me?

***

"Why are you crying Shurin?"

The little boy lifted his head from his knees and looked at the man in front of him saying "Lukas brother" and then started to cry even harder.

The man sighed, wrapped her in his arms, took her in his arms, and comforted her by stroking her back and saying "don't cry".

The little girl buried her head in the man's chest and said, "Brother," holding her dress tightly.

"Brother they tell me to disappear"

"Brother, they call me a monster"

The man revealed a gentle but painful smile.

He stroked the girl's hair and said, "Don't cry Shi, don't cry. Your brother will be angry with them"

The girl buried her head deeper into the man's chest and said "But". He said after hesitation.

"I don't want a brother"

"Don't go bro, people will throw stones at you too"

The man's hands formed into fists, he clenched angrily. Then he patted her head again and said, "Shurin," gently.

"After me you will be the head of Hell, you mustn't cry"

"How can you be a good manager if you are not strong?"

The girl's muffled voice came from the man's chest "I don't want it"

The man sighed and patted her head.

***

"Brother why?" Time passed, and both people had grown.

"Why are you trying to kill me?" The girl cried out in pain.

"You must die, Shura," said the man with the long, green hair. His older brother is Luke.

At that moment, the little girl recalled her forgotten memories. His innocent face instantly changed and he laughed like a madman and said arrogantly, "I don't die until I want to die."

She burst into laughter as she swiftly attacked the man and pierced his body.

"Tch tch tch, idiot," he said, kicking the shocked dead body on the floor.

The next second froze.

"B-brother?" he said shakily.

And he knelt down and wept over the corpse.

His memory after that is blurred.

***

Shura thought carefully. Maybe...

Did he also have schizophrenia? Maybe Lukas brother didn't betray, maybe this memory has never existed?

He looked at those around him.

Or with this imbalance...

What if it harms them?

He shook his head, no. Have to find a solution to this.

"Mom, let's talk later. Let me handle hell first." Laina nodded.

There was a lot to talk about, but things had to be managed in order of priority.

When Shura raised her left hand, the book appeared.

When he touched the cover of the book and whispered "The Rule", the huge pillars were pulled to the ground and a flat floor was formed.

As if the red sky had grown even more enraged, the air became more acidic, and all living things froze in shock.

For the first time, Shura began to speak calmly in front of the public with seriousness.

"Frankly, I'm not interested in being a Lord. Since you're so against it, I'm resigning from being a Leader."

His voice reached everyone's ears.

Objections rose from the crowd.

Objections with the theme 'You can't make hell like this and leave it unattended'.

"We can't help you either!" everyone fell silent when Shura shouted in anger.

While he was looking at Hermes and saying, "Didn't you want Hell? Take it for yourself. Whatever you are, I'm tired of dealing with you spoiled brats," and the public objected again. With even louder protests, Shura started to get angry, and finally she couldn't help but shout.

"I'm sick of getting your back! Grow up a little bit! You want hell?" He made a gesture of swearing with his hand and said, "You'll get my nah! I'm kicking you all out of hell, go away!"

He sighed heavily and looked at the people.

"Aunt Sister is pretty bossy," Helian nudged Ye Qin with her arm.

Hermes was the next to object.

"You can't leave us alone like this," Shura scolded angrily.

"Why? Are you a dog? If I let it go, will you bite me like scabies?!"

Everyone "..."

Hermes "..."

"We are not good at management." ' Hermes Shura fell silent.

"My son," said Shura, and began the counsel. "If you're going to start a war, especially if it's political, you have to plan it all the way." He calmly explained.

Then he shouted to the entire Urmaline, "Did you go to war with me without a leader to take over?

As Shura scolded, Urmalin lowered his head and stood like a child who had made a mistake.

Shura turned to the public and said, "What should I say to you? Your mind is like a poison when it comes to your business, now you look like an idiot when it's not your business. Is this a game?"

"Oh, it was a game for me, right," he paused, then continued to scold.

"Anyway. Anyways! Scatter, no devil squares from today on! Come on, everybody go your own way!"

Hermes took one arm and Alisha the other as he turned and walked forward.

"Kill me," Alisha pleaded as she looked at him hopefully, "Don't go," said Hermes hopefully.

Shura "..."

"We are enemies," said Shura.

Yet Hermes did not let her go.

As Alisha said "kill me", a vein popped up in Shura's forehead.

He took his arm away from Hermes as he scolded Alisha and said, "Go away, maniac, don't get trouble with me."

When he was about to leave again, it was the entire demon race that blocked him.

Shura "..."

This is not a game, not a game.

But it's all property!!!

He looked up at the sky and muttered, "Why did it all come down to me as if I had carefully selected all the idiots for this race?"

He opened the book in his left hand.

"As Shura, the True Lord of Hell, I Command"

The book emitted a faint light.

With Shura's voice, the book changed, all hell and the atmosphere changed. 24 floors of hell, the door of each floor appeared.

The stone guards in front of the gate came to life.

They advanced and bowed to Shura and said, "My Lord."

Hermes, Urmaline, people and races were in turmoil. Because Shura hid such a thing from everyone.

The real face of Hell was emerging.
