Ghenica is now resting in her room looking at the ceiling and thinking about the things that happened to her
( Marriage? Is he out of his mind?! It never crossed my mind that I become a bride and what's more a bride of a Demon King. I need to have a contract with him that in a year I should be free from his hands. Hmmm... He needs my power so if I can do something about it maybe I can manage to be out in his craziness)
Ghenica sits up on her bed and imagining a cellphone in her hand. A warm feeling rushing through her body like the time when she changes the tree is now happening. When Ghenica opens her eyes to a phone yet it doesn't work and is only made of silver.
" Eh? What happened? " she mumbled to herself
Ghenica holds the phone and notices that her ring was missing. " Hmmm. I think I know how it works"
All night Ghenica tries different things inside her room until she sunrises without her noticing it. The door opened after a knock and a demon maid enters.
" Miss it's time for you to change your dress," said the demon maid who is shocked due to the unknown things on the floor
" Huh? What time is it?" Ghenica asked
" It's seven in the morning" she replied
" Uhmmm.. can I ask your name? " Ghenica asked
" A human even favored by our King is still a human. I am not asking you to change I am ordering you to change" she firmly said
" What a way to start a day, I don't like I will stay here and you can go" Ghenica replied with a smug face
The maid rushed to her, grab her arms with the firm and throw her on the tub as she throws stock water on the floor.
" That's cold!" Ghenica whines
" Faster or do you want me to scrub you? " the maid asked while glaring at her
" I will do it" she replied
The maid throw her the scrub and soap and said, " after ten minutes go down or I will drag you"
Ghenica is pissed off but, she can't fight due to the strength difference.
" What a grumpy woman, I hope she fell on her face or pimples will grow out on her face... to mean. I think I should consider sneaking again" Ghenica mumbled to herself
Ghenica as fast as she can and go down, to her surprise the maid was at her back.
" Tch, so slow... Follow me"
The maid walk in front of Ghenica who followed her and reached a big door. The maid opened it and there Ghenica saw the Demon King sitting at a long table with different kinds of foods.
" How's your morning? Sit down and let's eat" the Demon King said while he helps her with her chair.
" Thank you," Ghenica said
" I have prepared a different kind of foods that you may like, feel free to eat whatever you want," the Demon King said
" Are they going to eat with us? " Ghenica asked
" No, why? "
" So they're just going to watch us eat? "
" All of you leave the two of us alone" the Demon King ordered
" But my King, we can't trust this human" the maid questions the King's order
" How come my kitten and soon to be my wife hurt me? Tell me Lana. " the Demon King asked the maid
" Wife?! Our King how can you marry a human?" Lana asked the Demon King
The Demon King was angered he released his cold, heavy and scary aura in front of everyone.
" Are you, a mere maid questioning me?!" the Demon King shouted
Ghenica felt heavy suddenly, her head was spinning and her eyes get blurred. She tries to stand up but fall on her knees and only grabbed the cape of the Demon King.
The Demon King looked back and saw Ghenica lost consciousness while holding her cape. He snapped on what he was doing, he grabbed and bring Ghenica back to her room.
" Call the physician" the Demon Lord ordered
" Yes!" Leviathan answered and run outside the door to get the physician.

" She's fine now, My King please refrain from releasing your murderous aura or protect her from your aura she's just a human."
" I understand" the Demon King answered
" Control your temper, ah! Another thing I saw a bruised in her forehead and arm. You know how fragile a human and yet..."
The physician was interrupted when the Demon King said, " wait... I haven't done anything to her and you know how much I know how fragile they are"

" Leviathan stay here I still have to meet Count Eliseo" the Demon King ordered
" My King, you need me to guard you. I can assign..." Leviathan replied but was interrupted by the King
" The reason why she is in this state because my men didn't hear nor comprehend my words," the Demon King said coldly
" I am sorry my King, I will take good care of her" Leviathan answered as he kneels in front of the King

Demon King Cain went to his office and there he found Count Eliseo an old demon whose horn is like a bull, has emerald eyes and hair, good body built, and has dark wings like a bat.
" What brings you here?" The Demon King straightly asked
" My King, our Demon King Juniper is asking for your assistance"
" Our connection is over, " the Demon King Cain replied
" Demon King Cain if you want to reclaim your territory we will gladly assist you. You are named as a Demon King yet you don't have demons to rule. Our King just need your assistance to conquer the Lotus Nation of the humans"
" Leave!" The Demon King said
" Demon Ki..." Count Eliseo was interrupted when the blade of Demon King Cain pointed in his throat
" Leave or die" the Demon King's threat to him.
Count Eliseo walks quietly and opened the door but stopped...
" You know we can't take no as an answer, "
" Tch! Shut your babbling"
" Your human must be somewhere here right?" Count Eliseo said as he walked out the door.

Ghenica woke up and saw Leviathan guarding the door.
" Where is him?" Ghenica asked Leviathan
"............" but no answer heard
" Eh? ( What the?! Did he ignored me?"
" Uhmmm... I need to go to the bathroom" Ghenica said but, still being ignored
Ghenica stands up but, falls on her knees and a loud GROWWLLL was heard.
Leviathan walk out of the room and left Ghenica.
" GRRRR... that damn demon, the only good thing is your face!" Ghenica angrily said
.
.
.

Leviathan who leave Ghenica is now walking the castle hall,
( Sigh!, For her size, her stomach growls like there's a monster inside her. It's not that I don't like her because she's a human... it's because the King is taking interest in her. Hmmm... I hope that she only use her for our plans because if that happens if the Demon King gets fond of her I will dispose of her)
.

Leviathan went back to Ghenica's room and saw her sitting on her bed.
" Eat," the demon said to Ghenica who is shocked by his action
" Thank you, have you eaten?" Ghenica asked smilingly to him but, she never gets an answer and Leviathan go back to guarding the door.
Ghenica started eating and peek at Leviathan.
" What's your name?" Ghenica blurted out
" GASP, I am sorry I should've not asked that...( Dumb Ghenica, stop spouting nonsense if you want to live) " Ghenica immediately take back her words
.

After eating Ghenica left the tray beside her Leviathan walk and reached the tray that makes Ghenica flinched.
" Ah, thank you," Ghenica said
"( The hell she flinched?) Leviathan said to himself
The door opened and the Demon King arrived.
" Leviathan leave us alone" the King ordered
" Yes, sir" Leviathan answered and left the room
" How's your feeling? " the Demon King asked
" I am fine and I just eat "
" Marry me," the Demon King asked out of nowhere
" I have already answer that question, instead I make us contract," Ghenica said as she gives the papers
" What are these?" The Demon King asked
" Just read" Ghenica replied
The Demon King read carefully and looked at Ghenica.
" I came up with that, if you wanna add something we can discuss it."
" Why you want to leave after a year?"
" Cause, my goal is to live freely, happily, and relaxing. I am sure after a year your goals have been expected lt finish. I'll help you as soon as I know how to control this power" Ghenica replied and explained
" Then marry me for a year"
" ( Why the hell his insisting on marriage?) Why?"
" There are others who will harm you and even now that the other Demon King are now provided with your information staying here"
" How sweet protecting me, " Ghenica teases
" Tch, because you use that's why I have to do this" the Demon King answered with a firm voice but, can't look to Ghenica
" just joking, besides how about your subordinates? also don't forget your proud title as a Demon King?" Ghenica said while making a smug face
" I can think of those things after I reclaim my land and you're not pretty so they will think of you like a pet" the Demon Lord added
" Yeah, I agree and will add it to the contract( Can I punch this Demon? )" Ghenica added
" Good decision kitten"
" Tch, Ghenica"
" Huh?" the Demon King asked
" My name is Ghenica use it, I know names for you demons are too precious to give but I want you to call my name properly," Ghenica said looking straight in his eyes
" I will call you kitten because it suits you, your real name is ugly," the Demon King said
" You know what, I hate you"

At night after a meal, the Demon King visits Ghenica where he found the human on the floor with different kinds of things.
" Ahem, I know that I am not the owner of this room but you should clean up. This mess was here since morning and it's still piling up" the Demon King said finding his way
" Ah, later and by the way, this mess was already here since last night."
" Tch, I am going to kill the maid! This place is full of junk!" The Demon King decided but...
" Wait! These are not junk and I promise I will clean them. This is for you"
" What do you mean?" The Demon King asked
" I am making something that might help you. ( The truth is I am just curious) Now you're going to reclaim your land right?"
"Absolutely " the Demon King answered
" When it was taken to you?" Ghenica asked
" We have been here in this castle for eight years."
" The reason?" Ghenica asked
" What reason?"
" Reason why are you trying to reclaim your land? The reason why can't you stay here? The reason that after all these years you can't defeat those humans you despise" Ghenica asked seriously
Ghenica thought that...
( If I am going to help them I must be sure that I am not going to regret this )
" Do you perhaps having second thought? I will not blame you you're still a human" the King said
" ( Even though I am human this Demon is the only one who asks for my help, take good care of me even though he's mean) I wanna make sure that I am making a right decision" Ghenica replied
After that, the two have this tension between them.
" If not?"
" Why can't you answer my question?" Ghenica seriously asked
" And if I lied?" the Demon King answered
" It's me to judge" Ghenica answered
" The reclamation of land is to make a peaceful and safe place for my brethren and we can't stay here because this place is borrowed from a human King, that land is important because it's ours from the beginning and it was loved by my parents. The humans, we can't defeat them because they are powerful to clash with us without any problem. Heroes were born that has magical powers, magicians also appeared even saintess."
" What do you want me to do?"
" Make a weapon that can defeat them"
" Here you see this?" Ghenica showed her a sword made up of wood
" A sword, what do you want me to do?"
Ghenica shows how she creates the things on the floor.
" Whatever I think of it will manifest to the things I touched as long as it is tangible. The problem is the material..."
" What do you mean?"
" This sword is made out of wood because the medium I used is wood. If you can give me raw materials maybe this wooden sword can be more powerful"
" I understand, tomorrow I will collect all the materials you needed but, for now, you should go to sleep." the Demon King said to her as he pats her head
" Good night," Ghenica said to the Demon King as he left the room.
