PROLOGUE

I don't know, how many days, how many months, how many years, or even how many centuries. During that time, all I felt was darkness and silence.

No, I can't say that. Basically, I can't even feel anything. Hot, cold, sick, tired, or whatever, I can't have it now. From the start, it seems like I can't feel that anymore forever.

There are only small memories, which show the happy past. Also some unpleasant things.

Nothing happens. I don't know what, who, where, I am. And if asked, this is really convenient.

Yes. Nothing had changed for the past few moments, but I didn't find it strange. Instead, I feel comfortable with this habit.

Until then.

When I felt a gust of wind blow my hair over, and out of the corner of the eye the darkness also appeared a speck of light.

"Awaken!!" A female voice sounded in my head.

"Sora, wake up."

The soft voice is really like the chanting of a song.

It felt like pulling my soul there. I don't even see, don't hear, feel anything anymore. I can only imagine someone calling me.

A few seconds later, I felt my body begin to feel cold. I can't even feel the temperature.

Starting from my chest, then my ears began to feel the wind. I also started to feel my hair forming, and my hands were starting to touch things too.

In a way, I felt my body reshaped.

("What is this? Wait! Am I being remade? Can anyone explain this to me?")

When I was having conflict within myself, my head started to enter something.

It scrambles into the head, like a cropped image. It starts with a picture of a baby, which then ends with a picture of a person saving others, and being crushed by the rubble of a building.

But strangely I know it all.

I've felt it all.

.....

Wait. Is that me?!

And that means, am I dead?!

["You seem to have noticed, huh?]

The voice that had called out to me was now clearer.

The voice originally echoed in my head, now I can feel it through my ears.

I opened my eyes. Dark.

I looked around. No one.

The last time I saw myself.

I'm still intact, with hands and feet. I can also touch my cheeks and body. And then I realized, my body is shrinking.

I'm also naked.

All men will automatically see the "that" part when they think they're not dressed.

When I realized~

"Why is "ochi" so small??!! How old am I??!!"

[You're worried about that part aren't you?!?] A scream from the woman's voice rang out.

No, no, no! Even if I'm reborn, it's impossible to shrink to that size right?! Okay. Let's calm down.

[Right. You need to calm down.] the voice came back.

[You're still in a 3-year-old body, so it's still in its infancy.]

I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. But hearing that, I immediately remembered.

This is the state where I am resurrected. I no longer have any rights in the world. In other words, all my soul and body belonged to her.

All of those reasons were enough to make me kowtow right away.

"Forgive my rudeness, Goddess. I have spoken presumptuously in your majesty's presence."

"I don't understand why you resurrected me, but I will try to be of use to you." I bowed solemnly, even though I couldn't see her form.

Well, I don't know if she has good or bad intentions, at least it would be better to find face first.

[Uhh, I haven't become a Goddess yet, but I resurrected you.]

[I don't have an Apostle either, but I have resurrected you. But but but, my abilities are also too weak! Uhh, but still I raised you. So fine! You can call me Goddess!] she shouted confidently.

It seems that this one Goddess is a bit strange. She just came into conflict with herself!

"??!!"

Her voice changed in various ways. Did I do something weird?

[Well, anyway you can call me whatever you want. But reduce your formality. I hate formality. Especially from that person.] I can imagine the face of an annoyed Goddess from here.

And again, she has her own conflicts.

"Very well, Goddess. I will change my speech. If you wish, I would like to request some clothes. As expected, I also feel embarrassed when I am naked and speak in a woman's voice." I said flatly.

I could hear a sound like a nod, and then a strange circle appeared.

From there appeared a black-black suit. Surprisingly it suits me.

[Okay. You're already dressed too, so let's start the serious talk.]

[Introducing, my name is Tilis. I am the Half God, the 13th apprentice Goddess, who has the honor of ruling one of the countries. Yes. I have resurrected you!]

Wait! Did she just say apprentice?!

[I called you here for only one reason.]

I can't help but hold my breath for this~

"Be the Demon Lord for me!"

Her cute voice echoed in my head. But she just shouted something strange. For some reason I felt like she was on her hips and pointed at me with her index finger.

Even though she can't be seen...

However, I don't understand what my Goddess' request is.

[Um. I thought you wouldn't understand. Let me explain.]

[You are one of several hundred souls who have died, and entered the selection. In other words, you were chosen from the few hundred. Then~]

With that, that voice, I mean Goddes Tilis explained.

In essence, I will become a Demon Lord under the name of Goddess Tilis in another world.

This world is a fantasy world, where there are 13 Demon Lords around the world. In addition, there are 8 countries that are equally tough.

My job is to defeat the other 12 Demon Lords and also rule the world.

Even so, she told me that I was the weakest Demon Lord, and had the territory with the weakest defense. Well, it can't be helped, she's a newbie in this Demon King game, so she only gets the bottom turn, she said.

[At least. Please!!! Get a ranking of at least the top 10! It can fix my name here!] Goddess Tilis shouted half pleading. At least... At least!! Keep your dignity in front of me!!!

"Goddess, how distrustful of yourself are you to me?" I can only sigh.

[Well, I know it's too much for you. So I can understand. You want to do it I'm okay. No need to be in the top 10.]

Hey! I can even hear a small cry! Is that really okay? Looks like she has no hope!!

But I think again, just to be able to get a second chance I'm already very grateful, so maybe it's time for me to repay the favor.

I'm also very dissatisfied with my past life, so I want to enjoy life more.

Although this wouldn't be suitable to avenge my life, but-

"I'll take it!"

"Eh?"

"I will become the Demon Lord!"
