1 CHAPTER 1: Second chance to live.
John roused up, feeling dizzy, his head was feeling hefty, he was having a oblivious countenance on his face. He was regaining his blurry vision slowly, he said, "Where am I? If I remember correctly, I was shot by a man, and then.....uff! I can't remember what happened after that, I can't remember anything but my name, age and how did I died."
As John was trying to sort out his confused self, Two cute puppies appeared in front of him. He was startled, he made an attempt to run but was too weak.
One of the puppies said to John "Hey we aren't your rivals so you don't need to be scared" and introduced herself, " I am the Goddess of the light of the blue sky — Thesia." Ensuing, the other one said, " I am the primordial, God of darkness and the consort of Night —Erebus."
John was flabbergasted, he thought he was in his fantasy world without any indecision, so to investigate if that was dream or not, he tweaked his skin, it was not as he anticipated, he felt the pain. Immediately he freaked out, feeling like a jerk, as he couldn't believe the scenario which he was into, someone given the opportunity to see the great two Deities, 'Thesia, the Goddess of the light of the blue sky and Erebus, primordial God of darkness and the consort of Night and Day. He pondered , "Why are they here? Are they going to take me to heaven or hell? Which one will it be? "
John's heartbeat was constantly increasing at an incredible speed, he was getting cold shudders, his face looked so pale, his mind couldn't stop thinking, he was sweating, it was obvious that he was pusillanimous. This was indeed the most quotidian reaction, anyone would show, at that moment. John anticipated that something adverse will occur to him either he will be taken to heaven or hell but the complete opposite happened —
The Goddess, Thesia elucidated John, " Don't worry, little human boy, you were very righteous and ethical, though you were betrayed and killed by your bosom friend, but now you will advent your new life, given to you by us.."
John wasn't believing his ears, but he gathered up a little aplomb and said to the Deity, Thesia, " Pardon me, what's the 'new life all about ?"
"I see you are intelligent, she said, "Then, let's strike a deal, we would like you to help us return the power equilibrium back to normal. Confused John asked What does that had to do with me? "Now listen carefully" Thesia said, "Betsuno Orbis Terrarum a world consisting of two empires. The Humans, the Demons Empire and the supernatural powers gained by chanting certain words known as "Infosys." The Humans have declared war on the Demons, occupying 90℅ of the world, which caused a lopsided imbalance in the power equilibrium of Betsuno Orbis Terrarum. Only 10% of the Demon territory is left now, the Demons are also humans indeed but their way of living is peculiar than humans — they need blood to survive, and darkness to grow."
The other deity , Erebus added after the Goddess of the light of the blue sky, Thesia, "We want you to become the 'Demon King' and lead the demon army to capture the lost territories by any means, we are Gods, we can't become the 'Demon King', as a result, we chose you. If you can return the power equilibrium to normal , by 1 month of time, then we fulfill any one wish of yours and if you fail, then, you will be given judgment by the 'Three Great Gods. Do you accept the deal?
John sat down quietly and thought for a while then he answered and said, "I actually don't have what it takes to be a Demon King or whatever you called it, I wonder how am going to do this but I'm willing to help at least it will be my own way of paying you back for the second life time you gave me." John continued, "It's gonna be a pleasure of diverting after all, give me some informations about 'Infosys', "this is going to be fun a adventure. " This time John had a weird grin — a grin to find happiness, at last.
6 hours later.
Kingdom of Clover, The Human Empire
A messenger in a haste, entered the courtroom, where the King of Clover and ministers were seated, he greeted and addressed the King, reading the message aloud. "Dear Clover, it's me, Balmuth, I've come to inform you that the Infosys Lakrimas are informing that a high-level threat has been deducted in the area of Democilas, please investigate and give me your report by tomorrow. "
4 hours later.
Democilas, Former Demon Territory
The Clover army marched, their canons and mages through the battle ground, where the battle between the Demon army and the Clover Human was to be betided, the sky was clear, reflecting the light through all the things. The commander of the human army addressed his soldiers, "My soldiers, we are fighting today to bring peace and happiness to all humans, to stop the torment of the Demons, I urge you to fight to the death! For the peace of the people and the honor of our King! Slay the demons! annihilate the demons! Only humans live!" They all responded, "ONLY HUMAN LIVES!!!!!." The commander ordered, "ATTACK!!!." But before they could charge into the Demon, a Demon came forward, with the other demons bowing to the commander and forewarned the soldiers, " we don't have any intention to fight you, please return our territories taken away by your kingdom and we will leave you unscathed! "
The soldiers along with the commander guffawed at the remark, firing infosys ammunition charged by the mages towards him. The Demon king chanted a spell just before the infosys ammunition were about to hit him, "Destroy thee I the Demon King chant." All of a sudden, the fired ammunition, blasted in the mid-air, leaving the commander and the soldiers in consternation. The demon had a barbaric beam on his face and remarked, " You filthy humans, remember this name, I am the new Demon King, ASMODEUS, I shall give you judgment for your atrocities from now on, I give your kingdom seven day to return the demon territories, which your King of Clover has claimed and to sign the peace treaty with us, I will keep my word , you sanguinary humans!". And slowly the demons and The Demon King (John) became evanescent into the atmosphere.
