Return of the Demon king

Eradan and his mother had just arrived in front of a building. 'Alluvial SPA' greeted his sight. Really? A spa? He sighed, did his mother take him for a girl who needed things like that.

"Sweetie, What do you think about it?" His mom's voice came from beside him.

"Fine" Eradan muttered with a sigh. There was no going back. He brought out his phone to know if Aaron had called back, but was greeted with disappointment. Having agreed on his mom's decision they both headed into the building...

           NAPELOEN REALM                               

        KINGDOM OF SLAAZAN

Silver eyes hallowed over the lands it had not seen for long. This land was deserted and gloomy, with only clustered patches of crooked trees which harboured evil and monstrous creatures. The rays of sunlight had not penetrated the thick clouds that covered this land for years. Far away, After this cluster of crooked trees. Stood a large castle with dignity, Ravens hovering around at the top of the castle.

That castle gave out a grave and spooky aura make the asirald among them slightly twitch.

Beside the white-haired figure's left was that particular mage who's expression remained plain and void of any countenance.

"The fresh scent of home is indeed bracing" The silver haired man said, looking over to the mage beside him "Don't you think?" He added.

Rivaka only smiled a bit before retaining her previous composure "It's indeed bracing if my Lord dims it fit"

"Haah... I never knew my eyes were to behold this county, But at your dept it happened" His gaze still on the mage he added "What do I repay you with, since you have graced my favour?"

"Nothing new my Lord. I only go with my previous wish."

Arzog furrowed his brows, his sliver eyes stabbing the figure beside him "Only that and nothing else?"

"Yes my Lord"

With a slight nod, he accepted the request before turning to the Elven at his other side. Who carried two asiralds with him throughout their journey.

"And who's this Ally I see with you here?" He asked, referring to the mage.

"I believe he's in a great chance to talk about himself my Lord" That was Rivaka's voice answering the question.

"My Lord" The elven asirald slightly bowed due to the individuals he was carrying. "Before you is Elvin Moonfall. The only son of Heron and Miriam Moonfall, the head domiciliary of the Dextern Olyr province." He answered.

"You're indeed welcome new one. What brings you to associate with the demon race?"

Elvin kept calm for some minutes before opening up "To avenge the loss of my mother and my unborn siblings"

There was a hint of shock and surprise on Rivaka's face, While Arzog remained passive nodding in response. Rivaka never expected that life was cruel to other people like the way it was to her. She could feel stern vengeance emitting out of the Elven asirald just like her. The feeling of revenge and re-quital.

Arzog didn't bother to ask about both the male and female Asiralds whom he carried.

With that, they kept on with their journey. At least they were already close by with just a few bunch of lurky creatures to deal with on their way...

Back at the Alluvial spa, Both Eradan and his mother were laying down on a massues chair, as their shoulders were both massaged. Not to lie, but he really enjoyed every minute he spent at that SPA. including the massage he was receiving then.

The youth checked his phone again, hoping that Aaron had called him back but there was no missed call talk more of a call. He dialed Aaron's number again, and again it rang but was not picked up.

He couldn't tell but the whole not picking call stuff began to feel strange towards him. Eradan felt like there was something important he was not aware of. 'Maybe it's just a weird hunch. Or am I becoming toxic?' He shrugged at the second thought before dropping back his phone.

Few minutes later,

The youth and his mother were both out of the spa, walking towards another building slightly far from the Spa. They conversed as they headed for the building.

"How was it sweetie?" Came from his mother to him, referring to the SPA' they had just come out from.

"Was great" He replied, grinning at her.

"See? I told you. Mummy's going to make you enjoy EVERY second you'll spend with her" His mother smiled back at him. On and on they conversed about lots of things, that Eradan began to feel suprised at his mother's attitude.

His mom who was in her late forties, sounded like a 18–19 year old teenager as she conversed with him. She sometimes displayed some teenagery attitude during their conversation like flipping her hair and more.

They had finally approached the eatery building with the Same 'ALLUVIAL', then 'cafeteria' boldly written on a signboard before the building.

Delicious aroma of food welcomed the youth as they entered the building. They choose a table close to a window decorated with flowers and sat down.

"Two hamburgers, french fries and an orange juice" Mrs Lily who knew her son's taste placed her orders just as the waiter advanced at their table. With their orders being brought, they began to eat while conversing at some intervals. Eradan totally forgot about Aaron and his unpicked calls...

Dusk was approaching while an Amber-haired youth took gentle steps, coming closer to the elevator that led to his apartments floor. He had really enjoyed his duo time with his mom. Sincerely, he didn't regret his tricked in decision one bit. He sent a finger towards a button on the elevator just he had arrived.

CLICK!

The elevator's door was sent open with him walking into it. pressing a button, the door of the elevator closed. Trailing upwards to stop at the floor which was his place of alight. After some minutes, the elevator came to a stop. Automatically opening for him to come out... which he did.

Black snickers kissed the floor as he drew nearer to his room. A key was drilled into the door's lock just as he was in front of the door. And with a twist, followed by creaking the door was sent open... Revealing a messy room to him.

"What the?" He yelled angrily, his eyes darting at every corner of his room littered with him clothings and stuff. Racking his brain, he recollected that there was only one person with his room's key. It was no other person than "AARON!". And that made him recollect the calls the other had not yet picked.

Judging from Aaron's earlier reaction towards him, he couldn't but suspect Aaron to be the culprit.

With burning rage, he stormed out of his room heading for Aaron's apartment to discern the causes of Aaron's actions...
