Chapter 18 Even Demon Is More Humane!

"I disagree with your attitude, Sir."

A calm voice from behind the dark-elf made those guys turned their eyes.

"Pfft who are you to intervene my business, you 'misfortune' wolf?" said the guy with blonde hair and crystal-blue eyes. What a waste of the charming good look to have such a foul mouth.

Tiana, the one who intervened didn't look upset upon hearing the insult, she still keeping her calm face. Rafa pulled Nia gently and slowly walked to behind Tiana. By the way, Tiana has a tall body and now was wearing a long brown robe that could hide her entire body and back.

"Nia, calm down, okay?" Nia only nodded shortly as they stood behind Tiana.

"I am but a 'misfortune' wolf as you said," Tiana put her right hand on chest dramatically. "but I 'still' have an honor to not 'pushing' the weak. I also believe that this academy did not have boundaries between being a mere lowly wolf or a high golden spoon child."

The words meant there were no difference between a commoner of any race and a very rich or high noble. Even if the crown prince himself enter this academy, he would be treated as a mere student and not a 'prince'. So, meanings that whoever attended this academy as a student have the very 'same' position.

As hearing Tiana's words, the noble guys seemed upset as they clenched their teeth and fists.

"You two are only lowly beings dare to crawl into this fancy place. You should just crawl back to the dark ally you 'must' have lived in."

What an insult. Rafa sighed, patting Tiana's back as if she's trying to cheer her. Rafa knew that human were a race that mostly despised other race. She's just realized that the 'despise' word meant more than that.

Not just beast-man, drake (also called dwarf, though they were different), and other race were having a hard time exchanging words with human due to the discrimination. Even a high elf (a royal blood in elf kingdom) found it hard to erase that unspoken rule 'those whose not human, will be treated as a thing'. How about demon? Demon got a bad life in human territory, whatever they did, it won't result in a good impression.

Those who have a demon blood within them really suffer a lot. Not only in term of equality, even in humanity. Well, they were not exactly a human, but how come just because they have demon blood they being treated as a villain?

Though not all of the human felt that way, but the majority could hide those minority away, and as a result, any race saw human race as an anti-social race.

"Lowly being? Sister, are my ears hearing it right?"

Rafa squinted her eyes and furrowed her right eyebrow as she knew what will happen next, but she could not bring herself to lie upon her twins.

"Yes. Maybe because that dark-elf has demon blood. You see, hybrid of demon and elf has a dark skin and pointy ears. Whereas, hybrid of human and elf has a dark skin but more of round ears." Rafa explained slowly as to calm her 'ragging' sister down with a piece of knowledge.

Well, there were hybrid of beast-man and elf, also other race with elf, but we will talk about it later.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Nia faintly smiled and stepped forward. "And so, if someone had the blood of a murderer, then they would also be the same kind as murderer?"

Rafa flinched as she saw her younger twin got 'triggered'. Rafa held Nia's left hand and shook her head to say her disagreement when Nia turned around to face her. But, Nia ignored it, she really got annoyed by those insulting words.

Aha… as expected, it didn't work on her sister.

"Nia-sama?" Tiana turned her face as she saw Nia walked forward.

"Nia-sama, I do not think that…"

"Tiana, take that lady away." Nia's voice was really cold as if telling anyone to obey her words at once.

Tiana could not confront anymore, she could only bowed down slightly. "Yes, My Lady." Tiana said, then pulled the dark-elf left hand to follow her.

Rafa's expression similar to someone pitying others. Clenching her hands with an expressionless face. She turned around and only her back facing the others now as she sighed.

"Don't be too hard, Sis." Rafa said in a low voice, then walked away in a quick pace, followed by Tiana.

Tiana was a really rare race, history books called her race as 'Silver Wolf', one of the rarest white wolf race (there was five white wolf race, each race has different appearance). The fastest, the cruelest, and the best in magic. It said that with only being near them, you will catch misfortunes. Though it's really subjective, but no one really want being near them. They said, better avoid before got the bad things.

"E-eh, shouldn't we help that little girl?" said the silver haired dark-elf that being dragged away by Tiana.

This dark-elf was the one being harassed by those 'bold' spoiled noble children. Tiana whose came from a rare white wolf race got even harsher words by only trying to brush off any discrimination. When those noble boys said the harsh words, Rafa and Nia has already stood behind Tiana. That was when Nia clenching her fist firmly with a darkened face, the face of someone who wanted to shut them up at once.

"Don't bother, my sister could manage it. More than that, what about you two? How do you feel?" Rafa walking calmly as they have reached the opposite corridor to see what will happen to those humans in Nia's hand.

"I'm fine!" The dark-elf smiled cheerfully.

"You, Tiana?"

Tiana bowed slightly, then said, "No worry, My Lady."

Rafa sighed as she held her right waist. "That sister of mine really hate harassment and even more to discrimination… because we ever lived with all of it. It was not a good memories, I prefer choco from Ruhe Delicacies than have to taste that bloody hell again." Rafa said with a pity smile.

Rather, no one really know just what hell have the twins of Valencia through before. One that everyone knew, it's not a place where a child should be at. It's not a place where humanity take toll, there's a rule there, 'eat or get eaten'.

'Kill' is not an unusual 'work' to do to live. That's what they do. Told tobe 'Royal Assassin', only to assassinate the royal or noble blood without any trace and will encountered a tough deadly training. Those two, holding each other's hand in mean to protect one another, have seen all the bloodiest scene and labeled as 'The Twin Anubis', took souls and more and more.

Was it a pity? To live that kind of life? Or was it just too cruel for those who got killed? Who knows, depended on whose perspective used here.

…

"Be the 'sun' if you want to be 'worship', then no one would be able to take you down…"

"What, My Lord?" Brian, the old butler asked as he saw the young master he served looking at the scenery outside the window.

"What do you think, Brian? Should I be the 'sun' now?" The young master didn't turned back to face Brian, instead saying those words in a flat tone.

Brian respectfully bowed, "I will serve as you wish, My Lord."

"…"

"You are too faithful on me. Try to confront me more, then your old days would be in grace." The young lord said with a faint smile on his face.

"My life is yours. I will do as you wish, I will serve you to my very last day, My Lord."

The young lord chuckled, "… do as you please. I'd rather see when 'Anubis' will come to welcome the 'sun'…"

The young lord and the butler stayed in the room in silence. They were busy with their own thoughts and… the future that they have seen.
