Demon Lord wants to Retire

Their journey was long and boring, their cart was sturdy and ran on dusts and then in the moist soil of the tropical forest, "Muddy forest you say?" Adam looked around and their were wild life, some that were not in his previous world, not that he spent anytime out. "Yes, dark green and it gets moister as we head in. Some of the animals are almost extinct but some are in large quantity" she looked to their cart wheel, "I guess it's about time".

They were at the green forest that comes first then the swamp and then the so called muddy forest. It was evening and the sun was about to set, "While we are on our way to a demon kingdom why not tell me about that demon Lord, heard he is a popular guy" she was tensed and sweaty in her latex so she took it off and wore a blue jacket and black shorts, she talked while she was at it,

"Drokonna, his name. He is a shadow of my past to be honest, someone I can't forget or move on from" she changed, he looked to it interested which creeped her out, "Look away Fatman" she turned her head from him, "Anyway, like I said, he is a part of my life unforgettable and unforgivable".

"What is he to you?"

She looked sad and grossed at the same time, she could remember her past going through her head after hearing that question, "Drokonna is my husband".

The demon Lord had a very boring routine, that is, in Mabavell Empire Far away from Asadonia and Saradonia, "Sire, we have a special news!" he was welcomed by the many of his demons who stood saluting him and some bowing their heads in a hall big enough to fit many mythical beasts of this land, he had a green carpet going to his throne, made up of gold out of the kingdoms they have conquered through out and a very expensive, shiny diamond rich crown, one that covered his head completely and was still a palm long up his head. He danced his way in the hall, their were various instruments ready and they had a tuning sync to his steps though he is old and couldn't really nail those steps, he sat on his throne, "Yeah? First tell me, across thirteen kingdoms, did any of you found it? Anyone at par with me? Someone who understands the situation?" all his advisors and knights had their heads down in shame it looked, "Pathetic…", he yelled, "Not a single one?" he further yelled in anger, "We can never find one I guess, I am the sole entity to have this power".

"There is something though, I wanted to report sire!" Same demon guard who interrupted his way in said, "First, change this green carpet! I already told you about my color. Is it that hard?!" he seemed angrier, "We have found someone my Lord" a female demon knight came forth and brought a human soldier with her, she was scared and had a very anxious face.

"No, not this. I am not in mood" she had her eyes wide opened and the demon knight didn't hesitated stabbing that human soldier with her bright yellow sword, "As you say" that human soldier was imprisoned to impress his highness but got rejected and killed, she spat blood on the same carpet that some workers started removing and died bleeding.

"What is it?" He turned the guard, "we lost Saradonia" he whispered, "We what?!" the guard was scared, "We lost Saradonia!" he spoke harder this time, "What's Saradonia?" they were in shock so his steward, a demon who looked like a human had black eyes with yellow Iris, she had a black robe with red hood, she whispered in his ears, "Oh!" he took a breath, "Oh, we lost Saradonia?! How dare you disappoint me?!" surprisingly all of them were scared now, "What happened to that guard?" he asked to the same guard, "He was killed, what really happened is unknown since no one survived and the marble I used was suddenly out of service".

He looked down and frowned, his steward whispered again, "Get in contact with Bernard, he may be their next target" they bowed, "Yes my Lord" and almost all the hall got to work, it was mostly empty except few who worked magic and ones who replaced the carpet, only his steward stayed by his side.

"I am getting old, Dinah" he replied to her standing right beside him, "I know" she replied, "I keep forgetting things" he further said, "I know" she replied, "I still can't find him" he was tensed, "All we can do is look for him" she replied sitting beside him, "My Lord, you are the symbol of unity for many demon empires. They respect you because of your unison governance" she adjusted his crown and beard, "How was the dance though? Am I getting better at it?" he smiled back to her and had a heavier accent, "Yes, of course you are" he sighed, "I never got her back neither her father, great" the hall also had a huge red Chandler which hung with only three support over the ceiling and had reflection of almost every corner of the hall, "Sometimes I feel like retiring".

"Do you know what will happen if you do?" she replied looking at the Chandler, "I know of what will come but I know that the Lords have said that my replacement will come" he held her hands, "I want it to be you Dinah, my third and only loyal wife" she smiled, "I can never match you" she replied. "You don't need to, you can be better, for example, you are better than me in remembering things, you are better than me in dancing and not to forget, you have the powers of learning human magic".

Back in the forest they stopped by a big bulky tree right outside the swamp to camp, "You telling me you married the demon Lord?" she was angry, "didn't I said it already? I didn't married him with my will but I was forced to marry him at an age of five" he couldn't wrap his head around it, "Why? Why did you left him and came to Asadonia, I mean, you should've had a different reason than that of being a human" she looked even angrier, "He didn't treated me well…or at least like a kid"

"Did he raped you while you were just a kid?"

"No, what the fuck? No, he didn't but he didn't understood me and his stance on world, his demon background sickened me to the extent of running away when he started forming an alliance to raid and turn human kingdoms into demon ones" she took out woods from the trees after running her hand over them so she can know which one is wet and which one is dry, "Do he have any kids?"

"No, he doesn't"

"Why, didn't he had anymore wives than a kid?"

"He did, total of three including me"

"So why?"

She turned around with a bunch of wood she collected from trees and looked to an excited Adam who expected to get started on his harem by learning from the demon Lord's, "It's because he is gay".
