LIKE A HUMAN

Felice had left the penthouse, leaving only Azren in the grande living room. The living room was so stunning with all the expensive furniture. The room was full of crystal, and he bet the price was far from cheap.

If people didn't know that it was Michy's residence, they probably would mistake it for a lady's house. The crystal ornaments were mostly in flowers' shape, and it was too girly in Azren's eyes. Even though Azren didn't know much about the human lifestyle, but his human brain told him that everything in the room looked feminine.

Azren chose to ignore that matter and focused on his plan. Lucifer didn't even give him spare clothes, and he wondered how he should change his clothes later. But, he had some money in his wallet, right?

"I can buy some clothes later."

Nodding his head in satisfaction, the demon then thought about another issue. It was about how to cook human food.

Lucifer wrote in his application letter that he could cook human food, so he probably would be able to do that even though he had never cooked any food before.

"Human food is like pizza, spaghetti, and hamburger, right? I can learn how to cook by watching some cooking tutorials on the internet," he mumbled to himself after his human brain gave him an idea about the cooking problem.

Demons didn't need to eat because they only needed to absorb the human's energy after they succeeded in luring them to sins. That was why he didn't know the sensation when food rolled down to his stomach.

When he was just thinking about his stomach, the stomach suddenly growled, making him flinch a little because of the sound. He had never heard that kind of sound, but his human brain told him that it was the sign of his hungry stomach.

"Wait. Why do I suddenly feel hungry? I've never felt this kind of sensation in my stomach before," Azren continued to wonder as he brought his hand to caress his stomach.

It was weird, but he felt that his stomach was no different from a pit. It felt so empty now, and he needed to dump 'something' into the pit to make it full again. And that something was human food.

At that point, Azren finally understood that to conceal his demonic aura completely, Lucifer had changed his body's structure so that he was no different from normal humans now. It was not only his 'shell' that had changed, but his inner system had changed as well.

He didn't only disguise to be a human, but he was a human now. He would be a human for 100 days, and if he wanted to turn back into his demon's form safely, then he had to complete the mission. If not, then Lucifer would throw him into the Black Hole instead.

"I didn't expect this mission would be this hard."

The demon lamented after he came to a realization. He was originally weak, and disguising himself as a human only made him even weaker.

Just like how he suddenly learned about the term "hunger" that he had never known before. Now he even felt hungry, and that made him feel more vulnerable.

His human brain told him to cook to satisfy his grumbling stomach, and he immediately got up from his position.

But wait. How was he supposed to cook? He had never cooked before, so what should he do now?

Azren used his human brain again, and it told him to look for the kitchen first before he could start cooking. Felice didn't tell him where the kitchen was, but perhaps he could look for the kitchen by himself.

The penthouse was big and gorgeous. There were so many rooms inside the penthouse, and he was afraid that he went to the wrong room. But, he remembered how Felice said that it would be fine for him as long as he didn't go to Michy's room. So, as long as he didn't go upstairs, then everything would be fine.

Azren glanced at the upstairs for a moment before he started his searching. The penthouse was indeed spacious, and when he was looking for the kitchen, he found a gym room and music studio instead. The idol indeed had a cool place to live.

After searching for a few minutes, Azren finally found the kitchen. It was a clean kitchen, a very clean kitchen to be precise. When he observed the electric stove and the cooking utensils, he could guess that they were barely used. The kitchen was very clean because it was barely used.

Azren sighed while shaking his head. Now he knew why Felice asked him to cook for the young idol. He was sure that the idol didn't know how to cook.

Azren used his human brain again to learn what he should do, and the brain told him to prepare the cooking materials first. His human brain told him that he could cook chicken, fish, or even meat, and those materials usually were stored in the refrigerator.

The blonde walked over to a double-doors refrigerator and opened the door. After the door was opened, his emerald eyes immediately scanned the content of the fridge, but all he could see were beverages. He could see milk, soda, water, and also energy drinks in the refrigerator, but he couldn't find any cooking materials inside the big object.

Azren sighed heavily. "What should I do now?"

His stomach roared again, and he decided to take out a bottle of water from the fridge and drank it immediately.

The transparent liquid grazed his throat, and that was the first time when he felt like he was truly a human. That was a stupid thought, but that thought came to him all of a sudden.

Azren shook his head before throwing the empty bottle into the dustbin. He didn't realize that he was that thirsty to be able to empty a full bottle of water.

The young demon closed the fridge doors because he couldn't find any interesting objects inside, and he immediately turned around. That was the moment when he froze all of a sudden.

Someone was standing right in front of him, probably had been standing behind him ever since he was busy with the fridge.

Azren's face turned pale in instant.
