Day [Life]: Incarnation
Pleasure and the Mysterious Man Who Brings Disaster

After hearing that, I immediately exited the guild and headed to Zena's house. Maybe they are making a cake. Run past the city's marching troops preparing for war.

*Home!!!

"Zena! We need to get our stuff done!"

While panting, I shouted.

"Oh, Luke. What was? Why do you look rushed?"

He tried to calm me down and told me to sit down. I set my breath back and started talking.

"I heard from the guild, there will be a major attack on this city. The adventurers and city guards were already preparing. And they'll be up tonight. We need to get moving, get Meli, and all the gear."

"Eh!? The assault!? Again!?"

He was shocked and closed his mouth. His face looks so relaxed. It was as if he could not believe what was going to happen.

I then brought my face closer to his and calmly, touched our lips together. Although he was a little surprised, he finally calmed down. After a bit of kissing, I let go and whispered.

"Calm down, I'm here."

Hugged her.

He looked calmer than before and then became a little relaxed. His body loosened and returned my embrace.

For a few minutes he enjoyed it, and then let go.

"If you say so, what can you do."

He again made a sincere smile and turned inside. Although this house is full of memories, we can't protect it because our lives are more important.

...****************...

After some preparation, we left. Zena and Meli held hands as if they were going on an excursion. The cool breeze brings the cold to the skin and the weather becomes cloudy. Dark clouds began to blanket the sun until its light could not penetrate it.

The atmosphere becomes gripping, though Zena and Meli enjoy their own world.

While walking Meli said.

"When are we going on another tour?"

"Perhaps, sometime?"

Zena answered with doubt.

Some conversations between me, Zena, and Meli kept turning around. Usually Meli will open the topic, whether it is about magic, demonic creatures, or others.

"Father, are demonic creatures going to attack?"

"Yes, that's it."

"Meli wants to take a closer look!"

He jumped up happily while still holding hands with Zena.

"No, it's dangerous."

Zena said it calmly.

"Eh.... Dangerous how's mama?"

"If the attack accidentally slid into Meli how? Mama and papa must be worried."

"May be able to avoid it!"

Although he was disappointed, hearing Zena's answer might make him cheerful again.

"Well! We have arrived!"

Meli shouted when a large gate was seen. He hastily withdrew the hand of Zena he still held.

Sounding from afar, the guards chanted a voice.

"Oiii!"

They entered without paying....

I then ran towards the guards and paid the entrance fee.

"I'm sorry, it's the cost of entry."

"Well... Kids are troublesome.. All right, I'm sorry."

He then forgave the actions of the two of them and accepted the price of his entry.

When I looked, they were already sitting near a tavern carrying toast. Meli ate it voraciously while Zena carried her bread while wiping the rest of the bread attached to Meli's cheeks.

"Hm!!"

He chewed it happily...

I approached and sat down next to Zena, who was cleaning up the bread on her cheek.

"Oh, so you guys saw the bread and ran straight here huh..."

"Hm!"

Meli nodded while chewing. His eyes were narrowed as if he was enjoying it.

"I'm not finished.."

"Hm? I'm not hungry anyway... All right, I'll eat."

I took it and ate it. Meanwhile, Zena cleans Meli's face full of attached bread. Even his hands are broken.

"At least clean your own hands, this."

Zena gave Meli a handkerchief. He then received the handkerchief and cleaned his hand.

"Where are we going after this?"

Meli asked while returning her handkerchief to Zena.

"Maybe we're going to the inn?"

I interrupted their conversation while cleaning my hand.

"Oh! The inn! Okay, Meli's gonna help!"

He immediately grabbed Zena's hand and ran while holding her.

"The boy..."

I breathed a tired sigh from not being given a rest. At least I can sit.

I immediately caught up with the two of them who were casually running. I must warn them both....

...****************...

Meanwhile, on the other side of town. A suspicious man wearing a black robe walked through the crowded streets. He looks scary. Many people avoid it.

"Oh... A very ugly city...."

He laughed like a sly person. Sometimes he also makes trouble for the people around him. Like breaking a stand from one of the taverns in that market.

"Hm... Disgust.."

He then left after destroying several stands.

"Oi! You!! Don't make a fuss in the city!"

An adventurer rebuked him. The mysterious looked at him low. Because of that gaze, the adventurer was unable to hold back his emotions and turned to attack him.

"Dumbass! Die!!"

Just before Bilah hit him, he smiled. His eyes were invisible because they were covered in his robe.

"What-what!?"

Just before the adventurer turned his head, a small blade almost hit his neck. He could not finish his words.

Some of the people around him muttered and talked to each other. "Oi, just now what was it?", or "He's a witch?", some say "Is that new magic?", and "The magic is troublesome...". People are afraid of that.

"Hoho... Looks like it'll mash up..."

He then touched the tip of his knife to the young man's neck. Blood flows, although not too deep. The young man had become stiff from being afraid to move in the slightest. Cold sweat.

"Hm.. This fresh blood... It smells good.."

He said while looking like he wanted to lick it. "Disease." is what people say. A few minutes later, a pair of guards arrived.

"Oi! You're the one over there! What are you doing!?"

"It's dangerous to do it inside the city! If you have a problem with him, do it out of town!"

Two soldiers came into the crowd.

"Ah.. Ahhe... Troublesome.."

He then pulled out his knife and immediately walked normally.

"Wait on! You've made trouble, come with us!"

The soldier then grabbed him and forced him. The mysterious one, because his mission was to reach the square to destroy the city, was unsuccessful. He then went berserk.

"Let go!!"

He managed to release himself and ran towards the City square.

"Curtain!"

Since the other soldiers were coming, he stopped. He had been surrounded with two soldiers in front of him and two more behind him. He then took out a knife with a strange motive and raised it.

"Oi! What are you doing!?"

The soldiers were shocked due to his strange behavior. He then said the words out loud.

"For my master, true demon lord!! I sacrificed my body for my master!! Do what he commands and destroy this city!!"

Instantly after saying it, he stuck the knife into his own stomach. Blood flowed profusely, and black clouds covered his body.

"Ap-o!? She!?"

The soldiers were stunned to see that. They were all just speechless looking at it, yet a black cloud appeared and from within it a demonic Beings came out.

"Devil creature!?"

The soldiers then stood guard. One of them ran for help, and the other was in charge of evacuating. There are 2 soldiers left there. The demon creature was a large body, with a lizard-like face and had sheep horns on its head. The buffalo tail behind him was dark black. His red eyes lit up from within the dark clouds.
