Silloh

Labels affect people's lives in any world. As it turns out, being a demon brings a bunch of dangers.

 After his reincarnation the idea of being a demon didn't really bother Azemo, instead the reality of magic and fantasy occupied his thoughts. Gaining more power or a new technique was more important than learning about the war between demons, humans and beasts. Also he was reborn with modern day villains so being a demon was the least of his worries. At first it was like he was back at school, a school filled with violence and death but he was still learning stuff. However Azemo would be forced to learn about the gravity of being a demon when he ventured from the demon stronghold.

Azemo did not have any grand goals or ideas but the world has a way of forcing troubles and tribulations upon beings.

The Birth of a Demon Lord

The castle was the same as ever and I could only wonder what was happening on the inside. It would be insane to think that everything was the same after a demon lord walked out of the front door, unhindered.

Azel already had her notebook out and she was flipping through the pages, looking for the section about demon lords. The emperor had sent summons to us, saying that he had something important to tell us. It could only have something to do with a demon lord and Azel was prepared to formulate a plan at a moment's notice. One could not predict how long a being at the level of a demon lord would remain in one place.

As we entered the castle, two servants greeted us, but instead of leading us towards the throne room, one of them started talking to us, while the other hurried off. It was definitely not normal behavior and I took it to be extra security, still it was a bit off.
