Painting 9: I am The King's Reincarnation

When I finally regain consciousness and open my eyes, I was lying on the bed in the nurse's office. So all of that was a dream?

"Welcome back, my king. What you just saw is a fragment of the memories that was taken from you.", A man with a pale face, dressed in black suit, smiled.

Who the hell is this...

"That expression of yours has shown me you are curious of my identity.", He smiled, "In the vision that you just saw, the girl mentioned that you have a right-hand man and a left-hand man right?"

"Yeah. Wait, how did you know what I was seeing in my dream?", I questioned, "And why does that girl look like my wife?"

"Let me reintroduce myself.", The man began, "I'm Jacob, the left-hand man of the Demon King, and also the one that takes cares of all conflicts held within the Demon Realm."

"So you are one of the two person that Mei told me about.", I interrupted, "So who's the right-hand man then?"

"That would be the man who claim to be the God Of Hell that you've already met.", Jacob replied. "His name is Samael and he is also your older brother."

"Let me stop you right there.", I started, "The dream never showed me any brother other than the one that tried to kill me."

"You two were separated by the gods when both of you are young.", He continued, "There was a prophecy that one of the two children will become the ruler of the Demon Realm and overthrown the gods from dominating the three realms. Therefore they ordered the villagers, from where you two are born, to kidnap the oldest one and sealed him in the darkest cave of the Demon Realm."

"How did he escaped?", I questioned, "Have he ever hated me?"

"During his imprisonment, all he thought about was your safety and have the gods come after you like they did with him.", Jacob replied, "Your brother never hated you one bit. He cared about you more than anyone in this world because not only are you his brother, you also freed him from his imprisonment."

"How come this wasn't written in the documents that I've read at the library?", I continued, "Could it be that this is secret informations?"

"Precisely!", Jacob replied, "Your brother never wanted you to know his real identity. He just want to remain by your side and help you take care of external conflicts like war with the rebels and gods."

"That's enough!", Samuel yelled as he appeared behind me, "He mustn't know the real reason! Not yet!"

Why doesn't he want me to know? Well its not like I actually believe in this reincarnation crap anyway.

"Forget what you hear.", Samael ordered, "This old man here is just shouting nonsense."

"Uh ok.", I replied, "It's not like I actually believe that I'm the Demon King after one random dream and an old man telling me fairytales!"

I salute goodbyes to both of them and head back to class.

Now the thing that has been stuck in my head is does magic really exist? If not then what was that my half-brother was using. A lot of strange things and change in timeline has been happening since I've reincarnated. Just what did I do to create these sequence of events because I'm pretty sure I haven't seen anyone created a black smoke and disappear in thin air like that before!

*bump*

"I'm sorry. Let me help you pick up your books.", I apologized as I picked up the books that fell on the floor.

The girl also bent down and started gathering the remaining books.

As we both stand up, our eyes crossed. Although this is the first time I met her, she gave off a familiar feelings as if I've seen her somewhere before.

"This might sounds weird, but have we met somewhere before?", I asked, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."

"That's cute, but don't you think that line is outdated?", She smiled, "You know you could've just naturally ask for my name and phone number right?"

Oh my god, she's think that I'm hitting on her and what I just said sounds like a pick up line that my grandpa would use!

"No,no,no!", I explained, "It's not what you think it is!"

She smile quietly as she wrote down her name along with her phone number and hand it to me.

Oh my devil, this is the first time a girl has given me her phone number without me ACTUALLY trying.

"You called?"

"Jesus christ!", I said in surprised, "Could stop appearing out of nowhere like that?"

"First you called me(the devil) and then you bought Jesus to the conversation."

"Haha, you know that's not what I meant.", I replied sarcastically, "Do you need something?"

"Not really, I'm just here to hand you your phone.", Samael smiled, "I added my number and a special navigation app in there."

"Navigation app? What are you giving me the Google Map of Hell or something?", I laughed, "Anyway, it's this app with the 'D' icon that looks like a devil right?"

"Yeah.", He replied, "Trust me, you'll meed it later on."

As if I ever going down to Hell.

"Anyway I'm off to class.", I smiled as I walk away, "I'm pretty sure this app is useless on my phone, but I'll text you if I need something."

"There will be a time when you'll need it enable to survive my dear brother."

*School bell rang*

Oh crap, I'm going to be late to class.

*Pant*

"I'm here!"

"Ah, welcome in Samuel.", The male teacher smiled, "You are right on time. Have a seat."

"Thank you"

Oh let me introduce this person here. This is Mr. Logan, my High School English teacher, and before you say it. No he is not Logan as in Wolverine. He's just one of my favorite teacher back then because of how easy his grading template are and how nice he is to his student.

"If everyone is here then let's begin class", Mr. Logan started, "Please turn to page 28 in your textbook. We will be learning some new vocabulary words today."

*Student opening their textbook*

"Samuel! Get your ass out here!", A voice yelled, "I'm going to kill you today!"

Oh man, who is the psychopath screaming my name!
