In the game scenario, no information can be found about the people around the Demon King.
The demon children are only given 1st difficulty and 2nd difficulty markers that the hero must defeat.
So, I don’t really know what system was used to create the demon castle or what kind of people are there.
For me, the main enemy is the hero and the devil and his henchmen have nothing to do with me.
Until I became the Demon King’s daughter.
“How could the Great Demon King meet a human? Of course we were created by the power of the Demon King! And by using the extraordinary magic and knowledge of our most respected lord Lyat in the world, we were created in the most unique way!”
“That’s right. That’s why our eyes are so much stronger than those of ordinary humans.”
So in conclusion, if based on what they’ve said so far. That means you two are artificial humans created for the Demon King.
‘Then what about me?’
I already know these people are homunculus, but what about me? Am I also an artificial human?
[SYSTEM]
Instructions: You are human!
At the time of your introduction, we were unable to determine the homunculus combination so we set you up as a human.
‘Damn it.’
I rubbed my face with my small hands while moaning.
“Ordinary people! Humans can’t even be considered ordinary! They’re just despicable creatures who have nothing! I don’t even like them breathing in the same place as us!”
“Ah! I agree too! Big Brother, I apologize. I just made a mistake. But you know yourself, I also really hate humans. I’d like to kill them all if I could!”
“…”
Ah, now I have to live as a human amongst evil young people who hate humans.
‘Maybe it’s better if I just die.’
I looked at the distant mountain, considering it seriously. I was the one who truly understood the extent of the cruelty of these creatures in the <Raising a Warrior> game.
If caught, then it would definitely mean death. There is no need to doubt it.
“So, anyway! We are very extraordinary beings, you understand?”
“Mya…! (Oh, shit.)”
“Therefore, the Demon King will test you once a year!”
Test? I looked at the twins wide-eyed.
“If we get good results in the exam, we can get everything. Shekina, that means you’ll be able to have servants who will take care of you as well.”
“But if it doesn’t work…”
Pardes’ eyes shone coldly.
“Dead.”
“Yes. You will die.”
“Uh, we’ll try our best.”
The twins smiled so brightly and sadistically that the surroundings seemed to brighten.
Of course… Looks like dying is a fun thing for you guys…
“The exam starts tomorrow, Shekina.”
Tomorrow is the day I will die…
“Yes! But I’m sure you can do well! I believe in Shekina!”
Please don’t believe me so much, asshole…
I let go of the control of my increasingly blurred mind and closed my eyes.
It’s strange, since reincarnation I’ve been wandering around aimlessly.
I had just closed my eyes in frustration as they discussed the exam, but when I opened my eyes, it was already morning. I picked up the milk bottle lying beside my bed as I stared out the window.
A blizzard raged outside, making the outside scenery difficult to see. Only the bell tower was clearly visible.
It was the perfect weather to die.
I sighed as I mixed in the milk powder.
Based on the information I got after talking to my twin brother yesterday,
1. The Demon King created a homunculus (artificial human) mixed with his own power to expand his influence in the human world.
2. This Homunculus has ‘information fed to it. Information about what they really are, how they should act and so on.
3. Therefore, the Homunculus must become stronger.
4. The weak homunculus will die.
And the most important information.
5. I am a human being.
‘@$%^#^&@!#!!!$#!!’
DAMN SYSTEM.
If you can’t make me into a homunculus, why are you making me into the Demon King’s daughter, why are you doing this to me…!
No matter how great I am during the 90 years of dying and coming back to life, the truth is that I am a human. I won’t be able to compete with a homunculus that has inherited the power of the demons.
‘What should I do?’
I couldn’t even move properly contemplating what I could accomplish among the flying and running homunculus.
Instead of destroying the ending in this game, it seems that it will destroy my own life.
‘For humans, just being able to see mana is enough, but if it’s among homunculus then it won’t be conspicuous enough.’
So what can I do? I felt anxious and bit my lip with my non-existent teeth while racking my brain.
That’s when.
[SYSTEM]
You who contemplate life and death! Even though you might die and be reborn, it seems like you’re afraid of dying again huh? What a pity…
Are you crazy?
I stared at the system message screen like crazy.
[SYSTEM]
But this compassionate me… you know. I will help you who are so unfortunate!
Ring!
Sub-Mission <Pass the test!>
You must survive among powerful demonic creatures and powerful homunculus! If you continue like this, you will be trapped in the lava ocean of the demon world!
But when the sky falls, there will always be a gap!
Knowing your abilities, you should be able to survive. We’ll give you a hint, so try to pass this test.
Content: Pass the homunculus survival test.
Instructions: Part of the <Raising a Warrior> setting book
Gifts:
1. Survival.
2. The devil’s reputation.
Failure: Death
I retracted my words calling the system crazy.
Maybe I should start calling the system a backwards-thinking lunatic.
I looked at the few pages of the <Raising a Warrior> manual that was inside my head and glittered.
Most of the content is stuff I’m not familiar with.
‘Anyway. I’ve locked down all the details.’
Still, there were some useful things in there. I flipped through the pages and scanned them.
‘Then next… Next again…’
And when I got to the last page of the guide that was given to me.
‘This is it.’
I found a crack in the sky.
(TLN: I think the gap in the sky means an opportunity, or a way that fl can survive the test).
“Myaaa! (I’ve finished everything!)”
…
Thump!
Thump! Thump!
The first general of the Demon King’s first army, Martin Jonasay, strode with heavy steps down the hallway towards the courtroom. Each time he advanced, the people filling the hallway quickly made way for him.
It was a natural reaction. Martin Jonasay has a face that is so ferocious just by coming face-to-face, three meters tall, muscular arms and thighs that are bigger than anyone else’s waist.
Most of the demons within the demon palace were very afraid of him, and they would shy away when he appeared.
Thump! Thuumpp! Every time she put her foot down, the hallway trembled.
At that time.
“Martin, I believe I asked you to walk carefully and as silently as possible in the hallway?”
There was someone who hit Martin’s big belly hard. He was the main assistant, Lyat Noe.
“Who’s going to fix the broken floor? Who’s going to fix the collapsed wall? That’s right, I’m the one who’s going to do it all! I think you should reduce my workload!”
As a close friend of the Demon King and a very important individual, Lyat Noe was only half Martin’s height who had a face that looked deformed like someone who did not get fed well. That is, he did not look like he would be able to kick ass.
So, the new demons who knew nothing about the relationship between Martin and Lyat began to whisper and feel insecure.
“Won’t he get beaten up if he does that?”
“I think with just one punch he’ll be thrown back into the demon world.”
Maybe it was the whisper? Martin’s gaze, which had been focused only forward, slowly dropped and fell on Lyat.
“…”
Martin’s round red eyes flashed.
He will definitely hit him.
It will definitely be beaten.
The new demon recruits reached out their hands to save Lyat, they thought they had to do that.
But…
“I forgot. Sorry.”
Martin only apologized politely.
What, what is this?
“I’ve said it a hundred times! You forgot everything! You son of a bxtch!”
Geez, a bxtch? How could he use such harsh language!
The new demon recruits closed their eyes, thinking that this time Lyat would really get hit.
“Lyat is very smart, I am stupid. So, Lyat has to teach it to me. Every day.”
However, instead of getting angry, Martin praised Lyat.
This is weird, what’s going on?
The senior demons in the place shook their heads when they saw the shocked new demons. as if they had also experienced the same thing.
“You’re so stupid, not just for a day or two. Haven’t you ever thought of trying to learn?”
“No. I can’t learn. But if Lyat learns, Lyat is the best at it.”
“Of course I’m the best…. But are you planning to use me?”
“Lyat will help me every day.”
“That’s because you’re frustrating me!”
While Lyat hit his chest hard, he grabbed Martin’s arm.
“That’s enough. Now go and do your work.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Martin picked Lyat up and sat him on his shoulders.
Martin who is almost 3 meters tall. Lyat who is a little over 1 meter.
They really don’t get along, they have completely different personalities, but they don’t seem worried.
When Martin stepped forward again, the entire hallway shook under his steps.
“Did you check the crows yesterday?”
Ravens are watchful creatures that travel around the demon palace. High-ranking people like Lyat often use crows to observe the palace.
“I fell asleep. I thought Lyat would check for me.”
“You’re such a brat.”
Lyat grumbled but actually told Martin about something interesting he saw yesterday.
“A homunculus that was only about a year old knocked down the twins’ dog.”
“Dog?”
“Yes, that’s the Cerberus they’re keeping.”
Martin might not remember about the twins, but he knew that the young homunculus’ achievement in taking down Cerberus was a great feat.
“Today is a test day for the homunculus. As the father who created them, I am very curious to see what he will show.”
“The father of the homunculus is the Demon King, not Lyat.”
“I’m just talking.”
Lyat snorted and looked at the court door that was about to open.
“Let’s see what she has to show.”
