Kanto Pov's

After jozo's grandfather's death I didn't know what else to do, I could only watch grandfather jozo's last place before his body disappeared.

I was scared, I was confused, but I knew it wasn't the right time for that, so I got up and went inside the house, and opened the door to my grandfather's unlocked room.

Ah it feels nostalgic, I used to sleep with my grandfather when tired of hunting, at the same time my tears came back ah shit. I also found a closet in Grandpa's room, an ordinary closet.

"If grandpa dies, open the closet in Grandpa's room there's a clue to what you should do"

I remember the last word grandfather, I opened the closet, there was a piece of paper in the fold, I opened the fold of paper and it turned out that there was writing.

'Kanto if you've read this means there's been something going on with me, nothing else I'll hide

When I first saw you I thought you were just an ordinary kid I found in town, but it turns out I was wrong, our meeting was decided by fate. There's a reason why your magic power is weak if you want to know everything then meet a dragon, its location is under this house , you go to the barn and flow your magic energy and the door will open, when you meet the dragon say "i am the one" then he will tell you the secret of the real you. Bring the oni sword with you it will be the key to his trust.

Then stay alive!'

^^Jozo grandfather.^^^

Okay here it is explained that I have to go down to this land and meet a dragon under this house?, and also how can there be a dragon under this house?, anyway how did it get into her kingdom?, a lot of questions popping up in my head.

I went out of my room and house and went to the barn with this sword. I arrived at the barn, too,

When I arrived at the warehouse I also drained a little of my magic energy into it, suddenly there was a door appearing under the floor near the door of the warehouse.

"Is this the place?"

I went inside or rather down the ground using the door, it happened that there was a ladder leading to the underground.

When I entered it was not according to my expectations, what was in my mind about the underground was a dark and sinister place, in fact the place was bright because there was a magic torch around it.

I came underground, I saw a road leading somewhere, with a magic torch that was like leading me somewhere, I followed that path.

When I realized that I had arrived in front of me there was a giant door, and also on top of it suddenly appeared the inscription 'who are you?'.

"I'm the one!"

Suddenly the door opened, there was a dragon sitting quietly looking at me with a gaze?

"It turns out you're a War demon"

"Devil war?"

Wait what does that mean? Suddenly he said a war demon

"Yes you are very similar to him, and also the sword is similar to a war demon sword"

"Not much to say, there's something more important."

"Well I know one day you'll come here, introduce my name Simon I'm Cyclone dragon lord"

"My name is Kanto, you must know why I came here, right?"

"Of course I'll tell you about 5,000 years ago"

"5000 years ago?"

The Flashback

5,000 years ago, a time when entire races were hostile to each other was the worst time in Vaneheim's world history. War, destruction, looting, everything is at its worst.

It's really the worst times.

While the war is going on there is a hitman who is nicknamed as the 'demon of war', he comes from the race of demons (of the oni if in Japan), he is from the demon race, together with his sword he had already killed many creatures in this world. He is very feared on the battlefield, it is said that if you meet a war demon then your life is already in his hands.

Right now the 'demon of war' was in the city of the humans, because he was at war with the Humans along with the Beast Man race who hired him

Nato Pov's

"Black hell fire"

My name is nato I am a mercenary they dub me a war demon because I come from the demon race (Kalo in Oni japan), my race has long been extinct because of this damn war, I have been, maybe all that was left was me and my mother, my father was from the demon race so arguably I was half demon and half demon/oni, he said, my mother told me my father died a long time ago from this war,

I live alone with my mother, maybe more precisely three with my childhood friend named lamy, he's an ordinary man who's been friends with me for a long time.

My mother had a strange, incurable disease that made her weak over time.

In order to survive I left my mother with my childhood friend. But I have to buy medicine from other races because no magic can cure my mother, damn it.

"Oy nato in front of you!"

Before I realized it turned out that I was on the battlefield, and there was a sharp earth element magic.

"Hell's slash"

I cut him with my sword.

"Don't let your guard down" nato"

"Good"

I also went forward to slash the Man with the army of the Beast Man who hired me. But unfortunately the man managed to escape.

"Currently, what are you thinking ha, war demon?"

"Nothing, Black hell fire!"

I burned the man with my black fire and burned.

The humans who saw that started to focus on attacking me, but my black flames quickly devoured their magic attacks

"W-that black fire?!!"

"Don't you not a war demon?!!"

Looks like the human army is trying to retreat?

"It looks like the human army is retreating, nato block those humans!"

"Well, RING OF HELL!"

I also use magic that makes my black fire cover the humans, just wait for time until the humans are burned to death because my black fire will not be extinguished until the target is charred, he said, even the bones of his bones would probably become dust.

The animal humans look happy and breathe a sigh of relief because they just wait for the time to win this war.

"Yo good work demon war, but it looks like this maggot is over"

Suddenly there was a fox beast man touching my shoulder, if it is not wrong he was the commander of the troops who hired me, his name is oscar

"What do you mean?"

"You see"

I also looked at the place that had burned my Ring Of Hell, there were still some human magicians who survived my black fire with protective magic, and one of them looked at me with a look of disdain, and started talking to me.

"Hahaha, so you're the war demon that has the hellfire? Your fire is pretty good, too, but you won't be able to destroy our absolute protectors"

"Omong empty, HELL SLASH!"

I slashed at the human but it didn't seem to work because the protector didn't seem to burn, it was likely a Dimensional Defend, a magic that could move other people's magic to another dimension, but even so the protector is not too strong to withstand a physical attack means....

"What's the devil of war?, you can't match the pelin-"

"Oscar attack them using your form of change I'll help you attack"

Oscar who had understood also nodded, and started his change into his monstrous beast form, because human animals if they had used physical changes then his body would be a monster that resembled his beast, and that's when his physical strength increases dramatically, unfortunately only a few human animals can use it and oscar who is the commander can certainly use it.

"Are you ready for oscar?!"

"Yes!"

Before darting I gave my black fire protection magic to oscar, then darted along with him.

I destroyed one by one his protectors with my sword. Although it is not easy because it is said to be weak in physical attacks but still it is a protector.

"Currently you realize it!"

One of the human magicians also tried to escape from my Ring Of Hell, I who realized it was immediately slashing from close, it just so happened that Oscar was also targeting the same human as me, he punched the protector while I slashed him, the protector was instantly crushed.

"Damn you demon of war and man so be it!, I'll remember this even when I'm aka-"

Tongjokan oscar destroyed his body and he entered the Ring Of Fire area and you can imagine what happened.

"Huh man is troublesome too huh"

"Yes"

Yes, the beast men won this war.

-----------

"It's your pay demon war"

Oscar gave me his money

"Yes thank you"

"It's good to fight with you"

"Well, if I'm hired by your enemies, then we'll be enemies"

"Haha yes you're right"

"Then I'll see you"

I also went from the animal man camp to the merchant city, the merchant city was an anti-war city, there were only merchants and buyers who wanted to buy something, he said, the city has a shield that can detect suspicious movements or magical activities, so it is free to steal there.

I will go there to buy the medicine my mother used to drink, I also arrived at the merchant city, it looks like the place is heavily guarded and many warriors from various races especially the giant race in front of the entrance, I can feel its great power, as good as you are not of the kind in this city.

I got to the entrance, the giant warrior was seen watching me with a hard to decipher gaze.

I ignored it and then went inside, in the street looks crowded with merchants and various other races whether traders or not.

I continued on, and arrived at the usual clinic to buy medicine.

"Uncle I want to buy the medicine I used to buy"

The uncle looked at my face for a moment

"Ohh you huh? wait a minute, I'll take it"

the uncle took the medicine and gave it to me.

"This is the money"

I also gave him a small bag of money to pay for it,

And I went home too.

---------

"I'm home, lamy how's mom?"

I got home, and I saw my mother lying weakly in her bed. There was also a human woman sitting next to my mother, smiling

"It's fine"

"Oh so thank goodness"

I woke up my mother who was sleeping

"Mom wake up mom, time for some medicine."

"N...The nato? Thank goodness you came home safe"

My mother woke up and looked at me with a smile.

"Let's take some medicine"

"Yes, I will drink it"

"Mom after this will someone hire me, mom at home first huh with lamy?"

My mother looked at me worriedly, yes my mother has not been able to accept me working as a mercenary

Lamy also looked at me worriedly and said

"You want to go again? Just got back"

"Lamy said, nato better get you here first"

I looked at the two of them with a smile and said

"I need money for you too, just relax I'll definitely be back"

My mother looked at me with a sigh and said

"Well, just as long as you're back safely"

"All right"

The one who hired me this time was the Devil race, otherwise the Devil race was a very strong race, other than being blessed with a strong physique, the demon race was the race that had the strongest magic of all races, let alone the Demon King Satan who was the monster of all monsters in this world, if he were to intervene then.... yes it is.

I also arrived at the demon kingdom looks very big, the doorkeeper also looks strong.

I approached the entrance about to enter the city but suddenly they blocked me and asked.

"Who are you? What's in the devil's city?'

I felt an unpleasant aura from that guard, his magic power was extremely strong.

"I am a mercenary, they call me a war demon. I'm hired by the demon race"

The two guards looked at each other and then looked up.

"You're gonna get us, someone hired mercenaries"

"No problem"

They drove me into the city, saw in the city there were many demons looking at me, I don't know why they were looking at me.

"It's over"

Unknowingly I was in front of the demon palace, so the one who hired me was the demon lord?, I don't know.

I entered into the palace with the guards, inside it was very luxurious, even gold where mana and certainly its powerful magic energy was scattered throughout the palace.

My hair is fucking goosebumps, this must be magic from the Demon King Satan.

I came to the door of a room.

"In mr. belpeghor is waiting for you"

Belpeghor?, if I had heard his name wrongly, in the room even from the outside I could feel a great power, so this is the power of belpeghor?

"All right"

When I opened the door there was a demon sleeping on the couch, staring at me.

"Yo I'm belpeghor, one of the 7 demon princes"
