Arthur returned to his room and dropped his body on the bed. He covered his face with both hands.
"Damn it! He was allowed to set foot on the land of Aosora and Shinrin. Obviously he apologized and begged Archie not to be killed. Why does the suspect in this case even run away referring to drops that are not necessarily born in this age?"
Arthur didn't expect to know the truth about this. Arthur's head was full. Archie was as surprised as Arthur knowing this.
["Arthur, I don't really know what Alex's last book is"].
Archie feels bad for Arthur.
Arthur took a deep breath. "Archie was my great-grandfather a fortune teller?" Arthur spoke without lifting his face covered in mattresses.
[Alex is not a fortune teller. He's just an ordinary mixed breed and he's no different than you. It's all coming down to you except your face]
"Yes, you don't have to carry my face either. I wonder to my great-grandfather why he has so many enemies?"
[That's because Alex is able to hold the hinoken]
[The hinoken is a treasure guarded by Akaiakuma. However, since I took it and Alex used it to kill my father, it went something like this]
[Then, in my eyes only Alex was different from the others. He was the only one who dared and did not hesitate to make friends with the Devil nation]
[Alex's friends are Devils, not just me and Mizel. He has other allies who assist him in taking part of the stealth territory for the land of Aosora]
[Sometimes, I see the always cheerful Alex suddenly becoming moody. It was the day of my appointment to become the king of Akaiakuma. Alex and his wife helped me with my father's murder. This plan was my plan that made Mizel the main pawn]
[Then, on the day of my father's death, Mizel and Alex, including Alex's descendants, were cursed. I'm the only one who wasn't cursed by my father. He tormented me slowly]
[I went from akaiakuma after Mizel's ascension to become a substitute King. A quarter of the Shinrin was given to Alex as a gift. Alex did the widening of the territory on a large scale. They took half of Nekoma. For the first time, I saw the other side of Alex I'd never seen]
[He threatened the king of Nekoma with a hinoken to give away half of Nekoma's territory and remove all his people who were in that territory. He's not like the Alex I've known all along]
...****************...
1028 YEARS
One year before Alex's ascension to King Aosora and one year before Archie was sealed.
Archie's eyes widened as stealth blood splashed onto his face.
"Ck, even though it's just signing the letter that I bring what's difficult?"
Alex cleans the blood that splashes on his robe with a handkerchief. Then, he looked at Archie while showing his smile. "In a moment, the village will be a keraj-uh, sorry for the blood she's splashing on your face Archie" Alex held out a new handkerchief to Archie.
Archie looked at the white handkerchief and rubbed it on his cheek.
"Alex, killing him is it really necessary?" Archie asked with a little pause. As if, he hesitated with the question he threw at Alex.
Alex turned his head to the left and saw his shoes that were exposed to blood from the demon.
"I think necessary. Before I kill him. I've been looking for the information first. This Nekoma King, once harassed his own servants. He was indiscriminate enough to make a 12-year-old boy die because he raped"
"Yes, I should have made him suffer a little before he picked his head up" Alex grimaced as he looked towards Archie.
Archie rubbed his nape and patted Alex on the shoulder. "Wouldn't it be better to ally with him than to kill him like this? It'll have a bad effect on your name later"
Alex smiled at Archie. Alex's smile looked very sincere in Archie's eyes. "What's wrong. I have no intention of allying myself with the demon from Nekoma. I only took the territory of the Kingdom of Greendaraea which is my family's first right" Alex replied as he brought Archie out of Nekoma's palace.
Hearing Archie's question, Alex paused on the spot for a moment while raising one of his eyebrows. "BFFT! Ahahaha! Wherever I hate demons! They're just like us. They want to turn it on too?" Alex asked Archie a question.
"Relax Archie, I just threw away a useless piece of junk"
Blood was still dripping from the red hinoken to the ground that Alex had stepped on. Archie begins to feel uncomfortable around Alex.
OEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKK
Alex's first child was born. He's a man. Alex's first child, he named Aosora Aiden. He looks more like Alex's wife.
For the first time Archie is holding Alex's first son. The baby snuggled.
"WOAH! Alex! Your son's like a baby cat"
Archie mispronounced his fear of crouching for those who could crumble in his arms. Alex smiled and took his son.
"Archie, don't you want to have someone that you want to protect and that's valuable in your life?"
It was a question Alex asked Archie while looking at his little son's red face.
Archie chuckled small. "It's enough that you become a valuable person to me. Isn't that right, the future King Aosora?" Reply Archie grimacingly.
"King Aosora? I think that's a good name!"
In 1029, Alex became King of Aosora. The day before Alex's ascension, he had a conversation with Archie.
"So, why did King Aosora call this white-haired demon~?" Archie's heart is happy. He did not expect that their ideals when they were little became a reality today.
Alex sits next to Archie while giving the hinoken to Archie. "I returned this to someone who should have held this" That day, Archie saw Alex's different expression. As if he knew something bad was going to happen to Archie.
"Eh?! Why?"
Alex took his eyes off. "Do you know who owns this sword?" Alex scratched his right cheek with his index finger.
"My father's teacher. Why why anyway? After all, this sword will not be held by Mizel if I return it to Akaiakuma" Archie pushed the hinoken out of Alex's hand.
Alex placed the sword on the table next to a black-coated notebook with seven mana stones as its cover decoration. "The owner of this sword came to my dream. He said something about this sword and about your curse" Alex replied.
Archie listened to Alex's story.
"Archie, I want you to return to Akaiakuma and bring this sword. You can visit me once in a while. Don't make Mizel suffer" Alex looked at Archie while patting him on the back.
At that time, Archie did not understand what Alex meant. He grunted annoyed. "What dah! People who can see the future. The owner of the sword is dead. Do you think that the sword owner's soul is swaying?" Archie was joking.
Alex yanks. "Basic. You're this...." Alex pats Archie on the back.
"Lately, Alex has been patting my back a lot" Inner Archie looked at the black-coated book on the table.
"What book is this?" Archie picked up the black-coated book with the decoration of seven stones where it was.
He turned the book around. "How do I open it?" He handed the book to Alex.
Alex took the book. "I don't know how to open it myself. This is the book I found at the door. I thought, this is your book" Alex replied, giving it to Archie again.
"That's a strange book. Better to throw it away. There's some weird magic in that book"
