Chapter-2(Edited)(Kingdom Travel & Meeting Grayfia)
(3rd Person POV)
The girl(O.D) opened her eyes and looked around and find herself in front of an ancient-looking stone gate made to guard a city. The girl directly entered the city and begin looking around to find something helpful to the cocoon. While walking around she got attracted to a smell that she had never had in her life so she begin looking around to find from where it came from and it from a wooden stall where a woman was making kebabs, the girl walks close to the stall and stare at it for a while, the women seeing this had a smile on her face as she asked her,
"Miss, Would you like to try it?"
Hearing this the girl nods her head. The woman seeing this pass one of the kebabs to her to which the girl took it and open her mouth to eat it. The next the girl opened her eyes wide and started to eat it quickly, seeing this the women smile and gave her two more pieces, taking those pieces the girl left while in thought, 'I should bring the cocoon here next time with me.'
The girl then started going to other stalls while eating different foods until a group of soldiers encircle her with swords and spears pointing towards her. One of the Soldiers come in front of her and spoke to her in an arrogant voice,
"I am here as the representative of the King, You have been summoned to be in the presence of The King, we shall take you with us, if not then we will be forced to use a heavy hand."
All the people looked at the girl with pity in their eyes as the King was known for his lascivious and lustful nature but no one came to help her as they don't want to get on bad terms with the King for an Unknown Individual. The beauty seeing that had only one reaction,
"(Nods her head)"
The soldiers seeing this relax and lead her to the throne room. In the throne room, she could see a person with a face similar to a pig and donkey mixture. The man seeing the started to breathe heavily and spoke in a an arrogant voice and prideful voice, which was funny, as saliva was dripping out of his pig-like mouth,
"Girl, I the great king of this nation want to make you my concubine and you have no right to say No to it. Maids take her and ready her."
Hearing this the girl starts to think about what the man in front of her means and after thinking about some time she remembered that she had heard and seen what this concubine is while she was watching the world with her cocoon. The girl stared at the ugly King for a while and spoke, in a natural voice, like she doesn't even care who is in front of her,
"No"
After saying that she started to walk out of the throne room but the King spoke in an angry voice,
"Guards!! Capture her and take her to the dungeon!!"
Hearing that guards started to encircle her and bought their weapons in their hands while threatening her. The girl just looks at them and wave her hand and all the guards were blown away, seeing this all the people inside the room were scared and the King started to tremble in fear. The girl looked towards the King and several other people and wave her hand and all of them vanished as they had never existed before. The girl then also vanished.
---------------------------
(In The Throne Room )
After the girl left all of the people fall back and sat while gasping for breath as they can't even breath in her presence. After some time one of them stood up and spoke,
"Haha Now we don't have to start the rebellion and we should start looking for the next suitable heir to the throne"
All other people in the room look at him with weird eyes as they had just escaped death and he already started planning the next steps but from the looks of his eyes they could tell that he was escaping the reality like them.
--------------------------
The girl opened her eyes again and was greeted with a purple sky. The girl then looked around and found herself near a pond with crystal clear water and a peaceful atmosphere surrounded by clear mist/fog, seeing this the girl decide to live here to enjoy the peace that it bought to her.
It's been several days since the girl started living there sitting in the same position watching the horizon, suddenly the girl opened her eyes as she sensed a life signature coming towards the place where she was, she curiously looked at the place from where it was coming from and after some minutes a silver-haired girl from the fog.
The silver-haired girl was wearing noble clothes and having a cold face, her eyes looked towards the black-haired girl sitting near the pond, the moment she looked towards her, she gasped as unable to breathe from the sheer power emitting from the black-haired girl.
-------------------------------
(Silver-haired girl's POV)
I am Grayfia Lucifuge, I am from the House of Lucifuge, a noble family of Pure-Blooded Devils from the Extra Demons, whose family served under the original Lucifer.
I had never felt this much fear in front of the Original Lucifer that I am feeling right now. The girl in front of me is releasing the aura a hundred or thousand times that of the original Lucifer. I know, from one wrong move from my side and I am dead.
I looked at her as she was looking towards me and all I can see was a little amount of curiosity and nothing else.
-------------------------
(3rd Person POV)
Grayfia looked at the girl and bowed her head by lifting the hems of her skirt and spoke, in a respectful manner,
"Your Excellency, I am Grayfia Lucifuge, a noble family of Pure-Blooded Devils from the Extra Demons, whose family served under the original Lucifer, and who might you be?"
The girl looked at her for a while and thought that she also need a name, so she thought of the name which suits her the best and decides on it and spoke,
"'Ophis'."
Grayfia looked at her with a troubled smile as she just spoke her name and nothing else. She then looked at Ophis and ask, with curiosity,
"And what might you be doing here, Ophis-Sama?"
Ophis thought for a while and answered,
"Looking for something to help the cocoon hatch quickly."
Grayfia thought whether its alright to ask what cocoon is, she decided to ask as Ophis hasn't shown any hostility towards her,
"What is the cocoon you are talking about?"
Hearing the question Ophis thought for and while how to answer it and Grayfia seeing her not answering sweated hard as she thought she had asked something she shouldn't have. But before she could ask for forgiveness, Ophis spoke.
"It is a golden color cocoon with red markings over it with same height as you."
Hearing this Grayfia thought whether she heard about it or not but shook her head as she hadn't heard or read about it and spoke, in a disappointed tone,
"Sorry, Ophis-sama but it is the first time I heard about something like this and I haven't read anything similar to that before."
Hearing this Ophis shook her head indicating her not to worry about it and wave her hand and indicate her to sit beside her. Seeing that Grayfia hesitates for a while but chooses to sit beside her.
Ophis stared at her for a while and ask,
"What are you doing here?"
Hearing the question Grayfia looks at her with a wry smile and answered,
"Ophis-sama, this is the place where I usually train as there is no one to disturb me and I could spend some time away from my duities of the clan."
After speaking, Grayfia realized that she had spoken too much and look towards Ophis only to see her just staring at her. Seeing no problem in her expressions she relaxed and stares towards the water.
Ophis hearing what Grayfia said starts to think and ask,
"You're Powerful, why do you need to train?"
Hearing what Ophis said Grayfia stared at her and answered, but her voice was kind of low in mood,
"Ophis-sama I am only a middle-class devil, So how could I be strong. For me you are the one I would say to be the strongest being I have ever met, You are stronger than the Original Lucifer."
Hearing that Ophis looked in a different direction and turned towards Grayfia and spoke.
"Are you talking about that Silver Man?"
Grayfia seeing the direction Ophis looked towards is the 'Lilith' The Capitol of Underworld. Hearing what she said Grayfia thought for a while and nodded, seeing this Ophis spoke again,
"He is the one using the power borrowed from this realm what you are calling 'Underworld'."
Hearing that Grayfia had a shocked look as this was a secret only known to the Lucifer and the Lucifuge clan. Seeing Grayfia's shocked face Ophis spoke again.
"And the Shining man is more powerful than him."
Thinking about what shining man Ophis was talking about, Grayfia found the answer, after all the only one known to be on par with Original Lucifer is Bible God. Thinking about it she becomes more shocked as their archenemy is more stronger than their King. Grayfia then starts to calm down and notices that much time has passed during their conversation and thought whether to invite Ophis with her or not but after thinking about it she decided to invite Ophis to her home.
"Ophis-sama, much time has passed and it's time for me to return to my clan."
Hearing what she said Ophis looked at her and nodded but one could see in her eyes that she wants Grayfia to stay with her as its been a while she had talked and spent time with someone else as her cocoon is also not here right now.
Grayfia seeing her eyes decided to invite her as she also enjoyed talking and spending time with her, So she asked,
"Ophis-sama, Would you like to spend time in my clan?"
Hearing that Ophis thought for a while and nods her head. Seeing that one could see a small smile forming on Grayfia's lips. Grayfia then extends her hand towards Ophis and ask,
"Ophis-sama please hold my hand so that teleport us to my clan."
(She has to extend the hand cause Grayfia is still Middle-Class devil and not very proficient in magic and her age right right now should be around 18 or 19 years and she is born with high class demonic energy but her combat strength and control is still around middle class)
Ophis nods her head and takes her hand and a magic circle with Lucifuge clan forms on the ground beneath them, and the two of them vanish from there.
