Demon King Zazel 2

Derrick felt a cold sweat run down his spine when he heard what Zazel said "Are you being serious or just joking with me" Derrick asked Zazel, he wasn't ready to die yet by offending this unknown entity.

"Wow you don't look so good brat, like I said I can kill you in a heartbeat but that would still seal me for another century or even more so that is out of the window" Demon king Zazel said after looking at Derrick who seemed to be sweating buckets.

"For a kid, you sure don't act like one, aren't you supposed to shout or make a scene after hearing a strange voice in your head, the people have taken as host before which were only two behaved quite differently" Demon King Zazel said amusingly.

"Well, first of all am not your regular kid and second of all what benefits would you give me now that you are in my body" Derrick said after calming down a bit, he felt like Demon King Zazel was being a leech and must pay him rent.

"Brat I saved your life isn't that enough, anyways you ain't strong enough yet for me to be useful to you, I can provide you with mana but I don't think you can handle my mana yet, I will teach you the best I can on your growth and most importantly I will teach you on how to pick up girls" Zazel said while being smug.

"Ahh ahh I don't want to hear it, enough am going to bed" Nicholas said after contemplating, he was tired and wanted to sleep before apparently remembering something.

"Didn't you take over my body to save me and my family in the last war?" Derrick wanted to confirm if Demon King Zazel could take over his body at will.

"I can only do that once a month and only for five minutes, the pace and time would gradually increase once you started growing stronger, by the way how old are you?" Demon King Zazel said, he sounded serious again.

"Hmm, why are you asking? I turned ten this year" Derrick answered, before apparently falling asleep, he didn't even hear Demon King Zazel reply.

Derrick woke up much later only to see his parents by his side, his mother Baroness Miranda was wiping away her tears, is been five days since Derrick fell into slumber, she and the high healers in the territory did everything they could to heal most of his injuries but he didn't wake up immediately, the agony of waiting eventually left her already weaken body in a worse state, she couldn't be more happy that her beloved son has woken up, she could hear the praises being rained down on her son and she was proud of him.

"Derrick is there anything you want, the maids have prepared a very nutritious and delicious meal for you, don't worry mama will feed you" Baroness Miranda said while caressing Derrick hands, that felt weak.

Rosetta wanted to be with them here but she could only give the family of three privacy to air out their love and concerns.

"Mother am fine and am very hungry right now too" Derrick also said with a loving smile, this was what he didn't want to lose even if it cost him his life, the love of his family.

Baron Dark only nodded and smiled at his son, he was glad that his son was awake, but the real issues would start soon.

"Son after you have healed up nicely, we would have a conversation, and is extremely important" Baron Dark said after thinking for a while, but was hit by Baroness Miranda who glared at him, "the first thing you could say to our boy who just woke up, is to have a conversation, are you being serious right now Stan?" it was rare to see Baroness Miranda getting angry at Baron Dark, and this made Derrick chuckle lightly.

"Is fine mother, you know father is always serious, and by the way father I think the conversation should be between the three of us, don't you think?" Derrick said looking at his father, who only nodded, Derrick has successfully directed his mother's wrath away from his father and that was his plan.

"Oh son, your fiancee rushed over immediately and has been by your side ever since, what a sweet girl, you have already taken her heart but you still too young dear to do anything" Baroness Miranda said giving Derrick that all knowing eye and smiling smugly towards him with a wink.

"You have a beautiful and lovely mother, if it was when I was alive eons ago, I would have stole her from your father" Demon King Zazel spoke to Derrick like it was natural.

'Fuck you' Derrick replied in his mind trying to stay as composed as he could, he wanted to tear this fucking demon into pieces.

When this was going on Rosetta was with her Dad in the guest room especially provided for them, out of all the people who sent help or assistance to the Baron family, only Earl Holman was the one who left his kingdom with his men, the rest only sent representatives and deemed it not important for them to be present, Earl Holman was preparing to go back to his territory, he has been absent for almost a week plus and it was unlikely for something to happen but he didn't want to count on that.

"Am leaving you with that Dark brat, it seems nearly everyone would have heard of his exploits in the kingdom now, you better prepare" Earl Holman left those words to Rosetta before apparently informing the Baron family of his departure.
