章節 3: Chapter 3:
[Next Day]
Knock Knock
"Chicken wing chicken wing ba Daaaa, chicken wing chicken wing."
"I am coming in, miss!" The man from last night said, opening the door to the warehouse.
"Hmm, oh, good morning," I said, dangling from underneath one of the staircases I was busy cutting off.
"Young miss, what are you doing?" The man said, walking towards me.
"You said this will be my new living courter, right? So I presume I could do what I want with the place. In other words, I am renovating my warehouse slash home." I said, giving him a giant smile.
"...How long have you been a busy miss." The man said, looking at all the staircases that were lying on the floor. The only ones left, excluding the one I was busy with right now as the ones next to the office, my future room.
"What time is it?"
"8:47, miss"
"3 hours and 36 minutes. Well, anyway, let me finish here, then I will come and join breakfast." I said, putting my helmet back on and going back to work.
"I see," the man mumbled, looking away from the blue sparks.
Bang!
"They're all done," I said, standing beside the man, surprising him a bit.
"Well, let's go then, miss."
"Oh, right, I will need to take a shower first," I said, smelling myself.
"It will be fine, miss. Your parents aren't here today, and your siblings are still asleep."
"...oh, I guess I am eating alone then," I said, dropping my head.
"... we have pancakes for breakfast." The man said, hoping to improve my mood.
"I am not a big fan of sweet things... do you know why my parents haven't come and see me?" I said, looking up at the guy.
"... you know what, let's go get you a shower, then you and I can eat together. What do you say?" The man said, smiling.
"That can work. What's your name, by the way." I said, a bit happier.
"Did young miss forget about me?" The man said, tilting his head at me.
"...y-yes, sorry."
"It is fine. My name is Tim," Tim said, nodding at me.
"Okay, Tim, let's go have some bacon and eggs," I said, smiling again.
[Bell Family Dining Room]
"So, they trained and taught you a lot of things. Including engineering?" Tim said, looking at me a bit surprised.
"Yes, Doc and his wives were very nice to me," I said, happy and wanting to laugh when I saw his eyebrows twitch at the mention of wives.
"Tsk, to think that old man has multiple wives," Tim mumbled with a bit of rage.
"Haha, don't be like that. Doc is a nice person and loves both of them to the brim. Oh, did you know Tess and Wendie are pregnant as well?" I said happily.
"Tim, what do you think you're doing!!" Suddenly we hear a high pitched voice shouting from the door.
"Oh, young master, you are awake," Tim said, standing up and looking at a young teen standing in the doorway.
"Well, no shit, Tim! I still need an explanation about why you were sitting on the dining table with some runt." The teen said, pointing at me while glaring at Tim.
"I was-"
"Brother, I was lonely, so he was keeping me comping," I said, trying to help Tim's situation.
"Brother?" Brother said, looking at me confused before recognition flashed through his eyes.
"Uh, yes?"
"Hahaha, brother? I am no brother of some trash!" He shouts, glaring at me.
"Brother, what do you mean?" I said hesitantly.
"Don't you dare call me brother!" He shouted, swinging his arms upwards, making multiple pillars of fire shot toward me.
"Brother, that is dangerous! You cant use your fire indoors!" I shouted back, appearing in front of him.
"Did I not say don't call me brother!" He shouted again, trying to grab me.
'What is he on about?' I thought, appearing a few meters away from him.
"Young master is something wrong." A man said, running through the door with multiple people following him.
"Edward, you're late. I want you to teach this trash a lesson before taking her back to her living courters." Brother said, pointing at me.
"Young master, that's-" Edward started saying hesitantly, looking at me.
"Did I stutter!" Brother shouted, making everyone run at me.
"What the-"
Boom!
Before I could figure out what was going on and teleport, I was tackled.
"Hey, what are you guys doing? Let go of me!" I shouted, struggling desperately, trying to get out of their grip.
"Stop struggling so much."
"Let go!" I yelled, throwing one of the guys off me only to have another one take his place.
"How is she this strong." A man said, pushing me down while some veins started showing on his skin.
"Isn't she like 12."
"Tim, help me," I shouted, looking at Tim for any help.
"I am sorry, miss," Tim said, looking downwards.
[The year 2118]
[Demon king castle]
"I fail to understand what is the point of you telling us about your childhood." The demon king said, looking at me confused.
Slap!
"You musclehead! Shut up and listen!!" The demon queen said, slapping the demon king ver the head because he interrupted the story.
'I don't know what to say about these two. They are... quite unique. Talking about how unique this tea is, it is something out of this world.' I thought, looking at the teacup in my hands.
"Wait, how!? When did we come to a living room?" I said, baffled, only now realising we were sitting across from one another in a living room—a fancy one at that.
"What an idiot."
"I should just cut it off, shouldn't I?" the demon queen said, looking down. This made the demon king turn green and start to beg his wife for mercy.
'Scary.' I thought, going pale at hearing her tone.
"Ahem, sorry for this knucklehead."
"It's fine, but I understand where he is coming from," I said, nodding at the demon queen. Looking at the demon king, I continued. "The reason. It is because my father is the one who had the last say in sacrificing me for the peace treaty. Not the government or anyone else but my own father had said it. I was a soldier under my father, and everything connected to me must go through him. Even if I retired, I was his subordinate once. Anyways, that would definitely include my life. I wouldn't be surprised if it were him ordering the elites to get me." I said with a dry laugh.
"..." The demon king didn't say anything, but I could see he was trying to hold himself back for some reason.
"Why do you think so." The demon queen said.
"Well, let's summarise my back story then. After the guards beat me up, they threw me into the warehouse and locked the door from the outside. Not knowing what was going on, I went to the makeshift bed and slept for days to recover. Also, they never brought food for me, so I needed to go steal some every night when everyone was asleep. Luckily that was easy thanks to my powers."
"This still doesn't make sense."
Slap!
"Shut it. She is busy talking!"
"Well, after a few weeks, I thought they called me trash because I was weak or had a weak power. That was also the reason my father never came and looked for me." I explain, sighing, ignoring the demon's outbursts.
"Oh, so you're a daddy's girl," the demon ling said with a revelation on his face.
Splash!
"Oh, sorry, it seems I lost control there," I said, giving the demon king a fake smile while looking at the teacup on top of his head upside down.
"Pfffft, nice one." The demon queen said, holding in her laugh.
"Why am I regretting that you two have met?" The demon king said while cleaning his face.
"Don't know, but whatever, back to the story."
"After 4 grousem years of training and torturing coming from my two siblings."
"Wait, shouldn't you have 3 siblings?" The demon queen said with some hope in her eyes.
"Hmm, surprised you know that. Well, yes and no, she wasn't there for me. I never saw her after the day I got tested on my powers."
"Oh, sorry."
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, after four years, my mother decided to have me and my twin sister duel."
[the year 2116]
[ren bell ware house]
"You want me to do what?" I said, looking up at my glaring mother.
"I want you to fight liana tomorrow afternoon in front of everyone."
"Why?"
[The year 2118]
[Demon caslte]
"It was a trap, wasn't it." The demon king commented, making both the demon queen and me look at him like he was stupid. "I will shut up now."
