Volume 2: The Sis-con Demon Lord Joins the Party
Prologue
Author: Geraint
"Ugh..."
I was sitting on the corner of the chamber with Lilith on my side, unconscious from summoning spell and she finally woke up, sitting up while rubbing her eyes then she yawned.
"Huh? Where are we?"
"Good morning, Lilith."
Greeting her from waking up, she noticed from the opened windows of the chamber that it was already dark outside and students that summoned with us are sleeping on the floor with blanket.
"How long have I been sleeping, Seir-sama?" she asked in nervousness.
"The whole day and you missed a lot of things."
Her face became pale and she immediately bowed her head on the front of me.
"Forgive me, Seir-sama! I'm a failure as your servant!"
"Ssssh! Be silent."
I pointed my thumb on my other side with Yuuka and Shiina sleeping with each other with tears on their eyes, holding each other's hand together to calm themselves. Next to them was Riko and Kaho-san then a line of girls sleeping which the group was separated from gender and boys are on another side of the room. We are being watched by the knights who are awake and it seems they have rotations. Only the flames from lamps hanging on the wall was illuminating the whole room with soldiers roaming around and checking all of us. Some of them are even glaring at me when they noticed the beautiful girls on our group.
"Tsk!"
The annoyance on their faces are revealing their intents to me as I watch their every move.
"Should I kill them?"
Lilith was very angry.
"Not yet. The others are here. I don't want them to see something horrible."
"I see."
She took a deep breath and calmed down herself as she leaned her back on the wall.
"I wonder where we got summoned?"
"This is our home world, Lilith."
"Huh? Really?"
"Yeah, the language they are using is the same as those humans in our home world. They have this ring that everyone wears and it helps with the communication with us even with the difference in languages. It was distributed to us."
I have one of them which Kaho-san gave me and I put it on Lilith's hand.
"What about you, Seir-sama? Don't you need it too?"
"Don't worry, I already learned their language a long time ago from the library in the castle. I used it to speak with human refugees on that village."
"As expected of genius prince Seir-sama."
"I'm not."
"Hehe... you don't have to be modest, Seir-sama. I've been serving with you for a long time. As one of disaster witches and your maidservant."
I sighed after hearing her praises to me.
"For now, we have to ensure everyone's safety and return them back to their home world. They shouldn't be involve with the matters here in our home world. The humanity here is beyond saving and it's their own punishment for their wrong doings which they blame to us demons. They don't realize that we are just one of those races who wants to live peacefully in this world. We are not like those demon beasts."
"Seir-sama..."
Lilith mumbled as she dazed down on the floor.
This made me remember how depressing this world was.
