I Was Born With A Demon Lord Inside Of Me, Who Wants To Kill

Chapter 72: Progress II

Isvell looked back at his family. He was scared, but felt like he needed to act up. The red skinned demon was about to burn them to a crisp, when Isvell picked up a rock and threw it at him.

-TAKE THAT! – He shouted with teary eyes.

-Oh? – Oneiros got intrigued.

He started landing on the ground. On the way, with a wicked smile, he still threw fireballs and brutally burned people alive. When he landed, he slowly started approaching Isvell. Isvell spread his arms, trying to protect his family. His mother tightly hugged his sister, as she was crying.

-DON'T COME CLOSE! – Shouted Isvell.

-Who are you to give me orders? – Oneiros giggled.

He approached Isvell and looked at him from on top with glowing orange eyes. Isvell suddenly started punching him with all his might. Oneiros slowly put his finger on the boy's cheek, burning it. Isvell felt unexplainable pain, but he didn't give up and continued punching. His mother teared up as well, but from fear, she couldn't say anything. Oneiros giggled and put his finger away.

-You are the first elf to fight back after seeing me burn everyone around.

-DON'T TOUCH MY FAMILY! – Tears were running down on Isvells face.

-You are strong. I will spare your family. – Said Oneiros with evil intent.

Isvell stopped and looked up.

-But with only one condition... YOU WILL BECOME MY SERVANT! – Oneiros eyes got set ablaze.

-Wha... - Isvell was confused.

-Will you accept my offer, OR WILL YOU DIE A PAINFULL DEATH? – Oneiros created a fireball in his hand.

-I... I... I ACCEPT! – Shouted Isvell and closed his eyes.

-Great! Of course, I don't want a weakling to serve me. – Oneiros made the fireball disappear, but made an evil grin, showing his red canines – I will come back in... let's see... - Oneiros showed his hands – Ten years, I will come back in ten years, and you need to have, 90.000 PL. If not, - He closed his arms and chuckled – I will kill you and everyone you love.

Isvell and his family was left in shock. Oneiros flew away and continued to burn people alive.

-AH! – Jetos woke up – Another nightmare. – He started to tear up – I, I didn't do anything wrong, why am I here... - He bit his lip as tears ran down his face.

*Meanwhile*

-Harumi, what's wrong? – Asked confused Whitebolt.

-What's wrong you say. – Harumi got even more angry. He got near Whitebolt and pointed her finger to Whitebolts face – You are more dull than I think, RIGHT?

-What do you mean? – Whitebolt couldn't understand why she was angry.

-I think it's my fault. – Shyly said Maya while slowly walking up to them.

-What did you d... - Whitebolt got interrupted.

-You think!? Are you trying to steal my boyfriend when I finally took him on my first date!? – She looked at Whitebolt – I haven't visited for a week and this is what is see?

-Boyfriend? – Whitebolt got flustered – I think you don't know what's going on. Come in, let me explain.

They all went in the mansion and sat down. Harumi tightly hugged Whitebolts arm, in a way so Maya sees it. Whitebolt got a bit annoyed and started explaining what happened.

-What... - Harumi was left speechless and thoughts started forming in her head. She bowed down on the ground – Elite guard Maya, I am deeply sorry! Please, spare me!

-No, It's okay. I was my fault anyway. – Maya awkwardly giggled.

Meanwhile, Rekka was on the training ground. He was getting stronger and stronger in a fast pace. He has mastered MP manipulation, fire creation and a lot of other techniques.

-This is getting boring. – Rekka created a fireball, threw it in the air and then cut it with his sword.

Suddenly he saw Whitebolt and Maya approaching. Rekka walked up to them.

-Hello again Rekka. – Said Maya while making a kind smile and waving her hand.

-Hello. – Awkwardly answered Rekka.

-Rekka, meet Maya. – Said Whitebolt – She is an elite guard and is staying with us when being off duty.

-ELITE GUARD? – Thought Rekka – Sorry for my rudeness! – Rekka bowed down.

-No, it's okay. – Said Maya – Whitebolt told me that I can help you with your training. Is that okay with you?

-An elite guard coaching me? – Thought excited but nervous Rekka – Yes! – He said.

-Sadly, I can't teach you magic. But I can teach you sword fighting.

-Maya is stronger than me, she will teach you things I couldn't. – Said Whitebolt and headed off – I will go train myself. Good luck.

-Umm, how do we start? – Nervously said Rekka.

-Hmm...

Maya went in the bushes and took a long stick.

-I want to test you skills first. Let's brawl. Don't worry I won't hit you back. – Said confident Maya.

Rekka got fired up. He created a sword.

-Okay! – He shouted.

-Attack me, and don't hold back. I won't get hurt.

Maya took a menacing stance. Rekka ran towards her. On the way, with his other hand, he created and threw fireballs. Maya dodged them with ease. Rekka started swinging his sword, but Maya, with minimal movements, was avoiding him. Rekka swung his sword. When Maya moved away, but she saw in the place where he swung were three fireballs. They headed towards her. With her stick, with fast movements, she extinguished them. She looked up and saw Rekka with his sword. Maya again moved away and Rekka pierced the ground with the long sword. Quickly, with his other arm, he created a dagger and threw it at her. Maya dodged but fireballs bombarded her. Rekka was creating them with both of his hands. Rekka then created a wave of fire.

-That was enough. – Said Maya and smiled.

Maya suddenly disappeared out of Rekka plain of sight. He got confused. Suddenly, someone touched his shoulder.

-You have some interesting moves.

Rekka turned around and saw Maya standing behind him, smiling.

-You are strong. What was your PL?

-A little over 10.000... - Rekka lost confidence for a while. He thought he was winning the fight, but realized how much Maya was holding back.

-You are stronger than that. You technique and battle sense is what's making you stand out.

-Thanks... - Answered Rekka.

-For your sword skills, you already have control over it. You already have swung it for weeks I see. – Maya remembered the hellish training she went through – To make it more fun, want to spar again?

-Sure. – Said Rekka, he was more serious now.

They fought again. Rekka was trying, but couldn't land any shots. Maya noticed Rekka was down and stopped.

-Did something happen? – She asked.

-No, it's nothing. Let's continue! – Confidently said Rekka.

They fought on.

-I can't beat anyone, why am I so weak! – He thought while swinging his sword.

They trained for hours. Rekka couldn't land a single hit the whole day, even when Maya was holding back.

-That's enough for today. You fought well. – Maya tried to lift Rekkas spirit.

-Thank you. – Answered Rekka.

-What's bothering you? – Asked Maya.

-It's just that... It's nothing. Can we spar again tomorrow?

-Sure. – Answered Maya and smiled.

Rekka smiled back and they headed towards the mansion. On their way, they saw Whitebolt enter from the gates. He noticed them.

-How did the training go? – He asked. He was tired from all the battling in the dungeon.

-It went nicely. – Answered Maya.

Whitebolt noticed Rekka was sad. When Rekka entered his room, he walked up to her.

-Did something happen? – He asked – Rekka seemed he wasn't doing well.

-He is mad at his weakness. – Said Maya – When he couldn't land anything on me, he got sad.

-Did the training go well? – Asked Whitebolt.

-We sparred and I taught him a few tricks. We will continue tomorrow.

-Okay. Thank you. – Said Whitebolt and smiled – Take good care of him. Let's go eat lunch now. Nobody compares to my maids cooking.

Maya nodded her head and smiled. They ate lunch with Rekka and went to bed. Whitebolt gave a separate room for Maya. He thought about Rekkas feelings. Rekka went to sleep, but he suddenly woke up in a dark place.
