Chapter Text

Iruma Suzuki a 15-year-old human boy who lives a life of a demon in the nether-world on his way to becoming a high-ranked demon, or maybe even the new demon king, but for that to happen he first must face a challenge that is as hard as it was in the overworld,  school

Today in the royal one they had rather a usual lesson, because they were discussing a book about mythology and in that book were humans so obviously Balam being interested in hearing what other people have to say about humans, he was attending every lesson about them to see if they are getting everything right about humans.

So Naturally, Iruma got bored, but now he has the plan to get out of the class with no issues whatsoever.

"May I go the bathroom?" he said nervously

"Firstly tell me something I don't know about this subject," Kalego said with confidence.

There is one rule at Kalego's classroom you may do anything you want, but you need to tell him something he doesn't know about the subject, which sounds easy, but is extremely difficult since he memorized the entire book so you need to say something that isn't in your ordinary books. For an average demon, this task with this subject would be impossible, but Iruma isn't an average demon, he is a human so his knowledge is infinite and it happens that he has a perfect lie detector right next to him

"What would you like to know?"Iruma said, starting to replace his innocent smile with a devilish little smirk.

Kalego thought for a short bit "What about human battles? What weapons do they use?" Kalego said calmy thinking the boy wouldn't know about anything like that since in their books there is only information about basic human swords, bows, and something that looks like a gun since all of the human's more devilish sides are shown only in border patrol special training guides and books that are strictly limited to people that are going to make contact with humans or family of these people. So there is no way that this 15-year-old boy could know something about those types of things-

"What region are we talking about?" Spoke Iruma with more of a serious tone in his voice "West? East? Island? There were a bunch of battles all around their world"

"I-" Kalego knew he already lost but still wanted to hear what Iruma has to say " What about the Sunrise kingdom?"

"Well... The Sun Rise Kingdom was known in the east for their soldiers called samurais" Kalego was starting to get worried about what discussion he just started, so did Ballam " Samurais used their katanas to fight but-"

"But..?" Kalego stopped him in the middle of his sentence to try to make him nervous so that he will mess up, which work for a few seconds

"But that was long ago and they didn't use them in their biggest battles..." Iruma froze for a second realizing that he was being watched by his entire class and worst if he says too much they mind find out that he is a human which held him back from saying anything for 5 more seconds.

"And what were their biggest battles?" 

"Well there was a war between the kingdom and the biggest nation back a long time ago... they smashed the bigger nation" Iruma paused for a couple of seconds to see if Balam would nod his head in a sign of him not lying, which he nodded.

"Anything else? Maybe something about their weapons?"

"Well..." Weirdly Iruma had only one thing in his mind, he didn't know if he could say it, but he has to end what he started. "There was a bomb that if you throw it on our school the blast would kill everyone in around 13 square km. radius ( 5 square miles for my American folks)"

...

Kalego looked at Balam nervously. Balam nodded in response.

"Go. You don't even need to come back."

"T-t-thank you, mister" 

After he left the classroom Alikred popped up immediately.

"Lil Iru I have a question for you"

"Go on"

Ali coughed into his hand then he corrected his suit "So... HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW THOSE THINGS HUH?"

"i-"

"WERE YOU PARTICIPATING IN THEM OR SOMETHING?"

"Well I was working for a company that made books and sometimes I could borrow some of them, mainly manga but they also made a lot of history books, a weird choice I know... and I had nothing else to do in my free time so read all of them"

"Oh, good I was getting worried for a second there"

"Also you don't need to shout at me"

Ali humed in response

After Iruma did his duties in the royal toilet he decided to stay a little longer in there for no reason at all.

"Well what do you want to do Lil Iru"

"What do you mean?" Iruma replied with a confused look on his head "We are going to go back to the class-"

"Oh no we are doing anything but that" 

"Why not"

"Well that edge lord said we don't need to come back, so why should we?"

"Yeah but what about Clara and az-"

"I don't know and I don't care, but I am not going to stay silent for the next 30 minutes"

At that moment they left the royal toilet, in the hallway was something or  someone waiting for them on the other side of the corridor. It looked like a shadow but it was sort of glitching which made it look more like a broken hologram or maybe it's more like a weird creepy dark purple ghost, maybe all of the above. The ghost was skinny and extremely tall compared to Iruma so tall in fact that it could touch the ceiling of the classroom with ease, on top of its head were horns that went straight up, a weird ball between the horns, and messy white circular eyes that looked like they were drawn by a five-year-old ten times, plus something that looked like a tail

Ali hid as the creature looked their way

" F҉o҉O҉l҉l҉ó҉w҉ ҉M҉e҉ ҉ę҉ ҉e҉ " 

The thing touched the wall next to it and opened what looked like a secret passage.

"F҉o҉O҉l҉l҉ó҉w҉ ҉M҉e҉ ҉ę҉ ҉e҉  F҉o҉O҉l҉l҉ó҉w҉ ҉M҉e҉ ҉ę҉ ҉e҉ " Offered the thing as it turned into dark smoke and made its way into the tunnel

Those moments were followed by silents until Iruma started walking to the secret place that the shadow showed them

"Lil Iru what are you doing?" Asked Alikred after he noticed that the boy started to move

"You said we are not going back to the classroom so we are gonna go and find out what that thing was" Iruma replied with determination

...

"I changed my mind"

"There is no going back"

"Iruma no"

"Iruma yes" After those words iruma started sprinting his way to the tunnel while Ali begged him to stop and think about what he is doing.

In a matter of seconds, they found themselves in front of a stairway, unlike the classroom, the walls were covered in dark purple bricks with gold ornaments around them, and the steps were made of something that looked like concrete.

As they went a couple of steps down the entrance closed behind them, so the only way out is forward which made Ali more and more concerned with every step they took and iruma kept his determined smile. When they finally got down to the bottom they found a hallway. The walls changed from bricks to mirrors with thin gold frames, under them were lights that lit up right after iruma came down the last step.

Iruma looked around with excitement and curiosity while Ali was wondering how to come back and not die in the process.

"See Ali there is nothing to worry about" Iruma anounced with convidance while walking tought the hall

"We just got here and you think that there won't be anything dangerus around here?!" Ali said with fear and anger mixed tougheter

"It was your idea after all" Iruma shruged his arms

...

"MY IDEA?!" Alikred screamed while getting realy close to boys face

"You were the one who told me not to go back to class!" Said Iruma while trying to push him back.

"I NEVER TOLD YOU TO GO INTO A CREEPY PASSAGE THAT WE MIGHT DIE AT" Ali didn't gave up on invalidating his personal space "DID NOBODY TOLD YOU ABOUT A GOLDEN RULE OF STANGER DANGER?"

"OK OK BUT YOU DON'T NEED TO SHOUT AT ME" Iruma still tried getting his personal space back, which he now succeded.

"I WILL SHOUT AT YOU BECOUSE NOW WE ARE GOING TO DIE" Now Ali was standing infront of iruma stoping him from going forwards.

"NONSEANSE!" Iruma screamed wihile putting his hand in an X pattern

"You know what fine, go there and die alone I'm not doing this shit" After those words Ali hid in the ring never to be seen again, if Balam was here he wouldn't nod his head at those words but who cares he's not here.

Now our human boy was alone in a hallway that no one knew about, no one there besides his ring buddy that said that he ain't coming back, no one to hear his screams if he was screaming, but at least someone was worried about him up there, right?

Back in the classroom, everyone was silent, after all, if they weren't Kalego would double their homework for every word they say, so it wasn't worth it trust me they tried and it cost them 26 bonus homework pages.

"Kalego you won't mind me going to check on Iruma?" Said Balam, now worried about Iruma since not only is it not in Iruma's style to just skip a lesson but he also knew that our protagonist was, in fact, a human so it added an extra amount of pressure.

"Since when were you so worried about him huh?" Kalego replied with a bit of shock only in his voice, but the only thing that changed about his expression was a raised eyebrow.

Balam stood in silence

"Go, just come back." Kalego's eyebrow went back to normal.

As Balam left the classroom everyone was worried you could see it on their faces since in the demon world everyone mostly cares only about themselves and if they did care about each other it was for profits or in life and death situations. A few moments passed and all of their worries went extra high.

"IRUMA'S GONE" Screamed Ballam while bursting back into the room

"What do you mean he's gone?!" Kalego responded now with a clear shock on his face "Have you checked the door?"

"I DID THEY WERE LOCKED"

"Everyone we are ending this class early we have a student on the loose" Edge lord announced with a weirdly calm expression compared to everyone else in the room.

Everyone looked at each other with fear and worry.

"We have to help find Iruma-sama!" Asmodeus announced while getting up on the table

"Ye we need to find Iruma-chi" Clara soon followed

"There will be no point to my living if my rival is dead!" Sabro was the next one to get up

"We must find him!" Said the rest of the class

"Misfits to the rescue!" Lied screamed and everyone followed right after

After leaving the class now in the hallway, Balam tried his best to find anything that could help in finding Iruma with no luck.

"Everyone check the toiles!" Asmodeus commened the entire class. After those words, boys and girls split up.

"I'm really glad you guys are trying to help, but-" Balam tried to say something but Clara interrupted him.

"There is no Iruma-chi in the girl's toilet!" Clara interrupted Balam while other girls came back from the toilet

"Not in the boy's toilet either" Jazz joined

"Also why would he be in the girl's bathroom?" Allover asked while looking at Clara suspiciously

"As I was saying..." Balam continued " Im glad you guys are trying to help, but it doesn't seem he is-"

"I got good and bad news" Kalego returned with a projector in his hands, but again Balam was interrupted. "Which one first?"

"The good news" The misfits answered with hope

"Silence" After that word from their teacher, everyone looked at Balam.

"Kalego don't be mean," Balam said

...

"Good news please" He added

"Well the good news is" Kalego put the projector on the ground as it showed the entrance to the class " No one got inside or outside while iruma disappeared"

Everyone's eyes filled with hope as they looked at themselves and whispered something to each other.

"But the bad news is that when iruma went out the cameras started glitching "The video changed now showing iruma going out of the classroom to the toilet, but when he went out the video got glitchy after few minutes it was back to normal with no Iruma in sight"

Why is this so worrying? Well, its because it happened that portals cause glitching effects on cameras, mostly the ones made by high-ranked demons, for example, someone from  The Thirteen Crowns and it happens that one of them is in six fingers which are let's just say they are hunting for iruma, so that boosts everyone's worries.

Chapter Text

Iruma is alone, everyone is worried about him but he keeps going like there is nothing to worry about.

Now at the end of the hallway, the walls changed to bricks just like once on the stairway, there is an entrance to the next room, the doorframe is darker than the walls it has horns that go straight up just like those that of the weird shadow creature but instead of a ball shape on top it had a spiky crown that looks damaged, the door is made out of dark wood it seems it’s not holding properly 

The room is in the shape of a hexagon only with a golden lectern in the middle, on top of it is a metal sheet that has a damaged dark pattern painted on top of it.

“Damn we went all this way just for this thing” Ali whispered behind Irumas back

“Weren’t you supposed to not do this?” Said Iruma surprised

“I realized that if you die I’m going to spend the rest of my 

life here alone so I’m just checking on ya.”

“While we are at checking things can you check that golden thing to make sure I don’t die?” Iruma added while poking Ali and having an aura filled with sparkles and flowers around him

“Ye ye sure” Ali now annoyed pushed his hand away and started making his way to the stand.

Alikred now in front of it started inspecting every single thing about it 

“Looks like nothing is wrong with it” Ali announced with confidence “Touch it”

“Sure thing” Iruma mumbled

Iruma now standing in front of the stand put his right hand on the cold metal plate, something felt off, he can't get his hand off the plate as somebody cursed him to leave his hand there for eternity.

He could feel like something grabbed his wrist from below and wrapped around it which in reality was just a metal Lego hand that is currently trapping him but something still feels  off .

It turns out the plate and the Lecter have lights below them, they were turned off when the boy came into the room, but now they’re emitting a bright green color.

Iruma with fear in his eyes now realizing what just happened tried getting his hand out but it was too late.

Something started coming out of his hand it looked a lot like the smoke that the ghost was made of and it was spreading all across the boy's hand and the plate and soon the metal was absorbed by the gas that seemed to become bigger.

When the slab was gone the trap that was holding his hand opened. In a panic, Iruma started swinging his hand like crazy hoping that the smoke will go away. By accident, he put his hand on the stand which got vaporized and made the cloud on his hand bigger.

Now screaming and running around the room in circles he didn’t notice a passage open and the previous one disappears. After what seemed like forever he spotted the entrance to a different hallway.

Iruma finally realized how dumb he was by deciding that it would be a good idea to go into a creepy room that was shown to him by “Satan” but because the only way out was forward so he decided to keep going even if he has something weird on his hand.

Everything seemed darker and scarier while going through the hall, even if it looked exactly like the one before. Something felt off, something was about to happen, something bad... something HORIFING, SOMETHING AT THE END IS GOING TO EAT HIM- oh never mind it’s just an empty room with mirrors that looks almost identical to the last one.

“I’m disappointed.” Ali confessed, “ I thought there will be some sort of creepy monster here.”

“Maybe it’s a puzzle?” Iruma suggested having a hand in the opposite way where Alikred is “ That one seemed innocent this one also has to be like that.”

Ali mumbled something while trying to figure out what could the puzzle be.

Something didn’t seem right about those mirrors sure the reflection was normal and everything but Iruma felt like he is being watched, Ali tried going through them with no success so that meant that the boy had to do something with them.

Iruma is afraid to put his hand on the mirror even with his other hand, but after five minutes of staring into his reflection, he finally decided to put a hand on it that happends to be his left hand.

The smoke disappeared from his hand, but Iruma didn’t seem to notice, or at least he didn’t react to it. He felt the same feeling that he felt when he couldn’t get his hand off the lectern even though nothing is holding him back from doing so.

“I҉ ҉wa҉s҉ ҉w҉a҉itin҉g҉ ҉for҉ ҉yo҉u҉” The shadow appeared in the mirror connecting eye contact with the human.

Iruma wants to scream, but his mouth won’t listen.

Iruma wants to look away, but his eyes won’t listen.

Iruma wants to run, but his body won’t listen.

Iruma wants Ali to break it, but his partner won’t listen.

No one can hear him scream.

No one can block his vision.

No one can carry him away.

No one can help him destroy it.

No one is there.

He is alone.

The ghost is starting to get his hand closer to Irumas hand until he gets it out of the mirror and grabs it making the boy scream in pain. It feels like it was getting melted, it pulled itself to him and gave him a big wide smile before turning into gas and surrounding him.

Iruma tried holding his breath for as long as he could which wasn’t long.

The light started flickering he hears voices in his head laughing, his body is in pain especially the sides of his head, the back, and the tailbone. Iruma couldn’t stand it so he decided to roll into a ball, get as close to the wall as possible, and  pray  that it was going to stop. As time passes the world becomes darker and darker until he finally passed out freeing him from the pain.

Chapter Text

While our protagonist is in the dungeon on the surface a bunch of adjustments are being made to find him.

“Announcement from the principal” The voice in the speakers caught everyone’s attention  ” Every class is cut short and must exit the school in 15 minutes, the staff is in priority to use force if the students don’t want to leave. The school will be closed for 2 days and everyone will be informed if it opens in a different time period.”

After hearing the information that the school is getting closed everyone started cheering and going from their lunch break to the exit as fast as possible, in that moment student council had to step in as a bunch of students were getting ravaged and basically becoming a carpet for bigger students.

The only people not being happy because they got some free time were the misfits. They were the only ones trying to go back to the royal one and try finding out what is going on.

Going though the crowd wasn’t the easiest but they didn’t really stood out, it became a problem when most of the students left.

“We can’t just leave Iruma Sama behind like that!” Asmodeus announced while being in the front of their group. “I know he is there I can feel it ”

Not every misfit was there, most of them got carried out by the tsunami of people so there are only five of them left that includes Asmodeus Alice, Valac Clara, Sabnock Sabro, Shax Lied and Purson Soi.

“Asmodeus are you sure this is a good idea” Lied asked “You know they can force us out right?”

“Iruma chi!!!” Clara screamed while running at full speed, running ahead everyone.

Clara was speeding until she reached the turn that seemed to stop her.

It’s president of the student council Ameri, holding Clara by her face while the girl clearly tried running away.

“Let us though- “Sabnock tried demanding but got interrupted.

“I know that you guys are trying to help, but if you are really trying to help you must leave this place” Ameri said in a cold tone.

“I don’t think you understand we are not going back unless we find Iruma” Shax explained

“Weren’t you the first ones to know what happened to him?” Ameri replied

“Well yes, but- “Purson tried to explain but failed

“Exactly so you know he can’t be here” Ameri said “So let’s make it easy for all of us and go back with no violence”

“I shall fight for Master Iruma even if it means I die! “Alice announced while making a sword out of flames.

“Alice we really don’t have to do this, but if you wish so” In that moment Ameris hair started to glow a bit while throwing Clara into the wall ready to do the same with to the rest.

Both of them look each other in the eyes, both of them determined to win. Sadly the match won’t begin as a figure enters the scene, it’s Lord Sullivan right behind the student council president.

“Can I know why are you still here?” Principal asked with a serious voice

“I tried to tell them to go to the exit, but they just won’t listen” Ameri replied with a bit of fear in her voice.

“Well it’s good that you’re trying to help but 10 minutes already pasted by so let me help you with getting out.” Sullivan replied less seriously.

With a snap of demons finger a portal appeared under the group.

Now in front of the school the group is laying on the ground.

“Why did he had come in?!” Shax complained while trying to stand up “The fight could have been so devi epic!”

“Maybe the creator is to lazy to write it or to dumb for it” Purson sat on a rock looking into the distance thinking that he should probably shut the fuck.

“Huh?” Everyone looked at him with confusion.

“Nothing.”

Back in the school

“Lord Sullivan, could you tell me what was that noise” another demon appeared

“Oh nothing really your kid tried to kick misfits ass but I stopped her” Sullivan turned around to see the Chief of border control Henri Azazel

“So you throwed them into a portal with no warning what so ever?”

…

“They seemed prepared”

…

“So, what was that you wanted to tell me?” Sullivan broke the silence

“Well I have 2 suspects to who might have kidnapped your grandson”

“I’m listening” Sullivan replied with a serious tone

“The first one begin obvious being Amduscias Poro as he seems to be helping the 6 fingers.”

“And the other one?”

“Baal”

“From the 13 crown?” Sullivan asked clearly shocked

“Yes”

“Why would he want anything to do with him?”

“Well, he was the one to inform us about you entering the human realm and saying that Iruma is a Human”

Sullivan turned his head away from the demon clearly sweating.

“So, you didn’t believe him right~?” Sullivan replied with hope

“Oh, he provided good evidence of you going to the overworld”

“Then why won’t you arrest me, I mean it’s not like I want you to~” Sullivan started sweating harder.

“We won’t arrest you as it is our responsibility to protect any human in our realm even if they want stay ,so in case of Iruma, staying with you is probably the best possible way to keep him secure” Henri adjusted his glasses while Sullivan took a sigh of relief.

“But” The demon continued “If we don’t find Iruma alive border control will arrest you with no hesitation.”

“Then what are you waiting for?! “Sullivan stared screaming “Get the best people and find him now imminently!”

“We are doing our best, the staff should be here soon”

“Great in that case I shall open the royal one for you”

In that moment they’re making their way into the back side of the school 

Chapter Text

An hour after the border patrol got into Babylys Iruma finally woke up.

“Ugh” Iruma mumbled while scratching the back of his head “That was a weird dream wasn’t it huh”

As he got up our boy doesn’t seem to notice anything weird like that he can feel something getting in the way of touching the side of his head or that he feels more of the wall then usually until he looks into one of the mirrors beside him.

“Oh, cool I have wings now”

…

“I HAVE WHAT NOW?!” in that moment the boy realized that it wasn’t in fact a dream.

While Iruma was unconscious his body completed the process of him becoming a demon now having:

-A pair of horns that first decide going in the opposite direction of each other than half way though deciding to go up.

-Two pairs of dark feathery wings one bigger than the other

-A tail with a bit of fluff on the end

-Bigger fangs and pointy ears.

Iruma is so shocked that he wasn’t even able run around the room like crazy and scream at top of his lung so he just stood there touching the newly acquired part of his body.

He is so focused that he didn’t notice the portal that just opened behind him.

“How you feeling little man?” Asked Derkila being on his knees to match Irumas height

“Weird but I think I’m getting used to it”

…

“Wait what the fu-“

Let us pause for a moment here. Iruma was checking himself out for good five minutes meanwhile on the other side of the portal Mr. Missing King Derkila is waiting to announce that he turned Iruma into a demon but with no sign of Iruma he decided to see what’s going on and that’s how we are here hope that explains somethings.

As soon as Iruma saw Derkila he jumped to the other side of the room.

“Oh no need to be scared little man” Derkila said after getting up “Is it because how tall I am?”

The tall demon snaped his fingers and became around two heads taller than Little man.

“Is this better Little man?” Iruma answered with nod “Okey good now~”

Derkila grabbed Iruma and went into the portal that closed behind him. Inside the portal was nothing, just white void.

“Normally its more messy around here but cleaned up for you my son” Derkila said with enthusiasm

“Son?” Iruma looked at him with confusion

“OH ye I didn’t explained it yet please take a seat” Two thrown like chairs appeared out of nowhere

After ten seconds of hesitation Iruma finally decided to sit down, it feels like he is sitting on a big cloud.

“So~” Derkila sat down and adjusted the siting position. “Do have any questions before I start explain how you came to live?”

“Hm” Iruma though for a while “Aren’t you supposed to be dead?”
“Sort of, more like a ghost”

“Aren’t ghosts dead?”

Cricket noise

“Then yes I am Dead.”

Silence

 “Oh and I almost forgot” Derkila made a little cloud inside his hands that turned into a craton of milk and gave it to Iruma.

“Why are you giving me this?” Iruma tilted his head in confusion.

“Human kids your age make jokes about their father leaving for milk and not coming back so I came back with the milk”

“Oh, I never really joked around with people…”

“I know”

Huh

“I was always watching you little man” Derkila sat back down with sparkles around him leaving little man in confusion “So~ you want to know how you came to be my son?”

“I guess so.”

“Great!” Derkila snaped his fingers again this time changing the surroundings into a border between a forest and a human city which made Iruma feel really uncomfortable.

“This is something you call flashbacks so just pretend we are not here okey?”

“Okey” Both of them went silent.

You can hear laughter in the distance coming closer.

“Finally!” said young man that looked similar to Derkila “I hav-“

“Wait a minute” Iruma interrupted which made the scene pause “Who is that?”

“Oh right I didn’t explain it you see as ghost I don’t have a body so I have to possess people” Derkila explained “Sadly I can’t possess demons”

“Oh okey”

“No body no fucking your mama buddy, now let’s continue.”

“I have finally achieved the goal of committing to the netherworlds future by creating the new demon king!” Young demon raised his precious baby into the sky.

The child has really short blue hair with a little ahgoe on top, a face with big bright blue eyes that didn’t give a fuck about anything. Light blue pajamas with two pairs of small wings and a tail sticking out.

 “After all I made a promise about the new king being from another dimension” He put the baby on the ground next to a tree “You wait here and I’m going to clean up this place to make a portal ok Little man?”

The child giggled in response.

“Great!” The demon moved a bunch of sticks and rocks to the side while Little man saw a really nice butterfly that made him laugh which happened to activate his powers.

“Happy to go home am I right Little man?” Derkila turned around “LITTLE MAN!?” The child is covered in dark smoke only able to see its bright eyes.

The man rushed to his child and grabbed it.

“AGH WTF ” The child burned his hand.

He kept trying to pick it up with no success since it burned his hand. While he tried to come up with a plan to pick it up, Little man evaporated a tree and made cracks in the ground

Then he came up with and genius idea, he is going to store the power in one of his rings until it can control it. so he took off one of his rings and threw it directly onto the child which made the smoke around it disappear but also made it fall asleep.

“Little man are you ok?!” The demon rushed to check if the child is alive “oh thank devil you’re alright I thought I threw it too hard” Derkila picked up the child feeling nothing on its back

Huh?

HUH?!

“WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOUR WINGS AT?!” In that moment all Iruma’s mana is stored in the ring which basically made him a human “No worries I can fix it!” He tried putting the ring on little man with no success.

Sigh 

“Well, I can’t just take you there now it’s way too dangerous for you” Derkila started walking towards the city “But no worries little man I will keep my eye on you till you’re ready”

The scene disappeared and now there is only void again.

“So, you want me to become the next demon king?”

“Mostly yes, but you can do whatever you want I can’t force you to do anything after all” Derkila made some popcorn and started eating it.

“I mean wouldn’t it be weird for a human to become the demon king?”

“You’re not a human anymore tho.”

“It would be weird for me to just get out of here looking like you.”

“What do you mean by that you look dazzling” A bunch of sparkles appeared around the missing king

“It’s just I never looked like this and in the best case scenario people are going to think I’m you”

“And the worst-case scenario?”

“They are going to think I killed Iruma and took his skin to become popular but forgot my demon features so they are going to kill me” out of shock Derkila dropped his food onto the ground.

“Wow I didn’t think about that” Derkila took Little man’s hand and added another ring to it “Here now you can become a demon whenever you want to”

The ring looked almost identical to the ring of gluttony but instead of the power system it has a single small button.

“Thank you”
“No problem.”

…
“what did you mean by having an eye on me till I’m ready?”

“It’s a simple question I was watching you”

“Everyday?”

“Yes everyday”

“Why didn’t you help me then?”

“Good question for that you would have to ask Derkila from the past”

“So you don’t know…”

“Yep”

Awkward silence

"You want to learn how to fly?”

“Yea sure”

Back to trying to find Iruma on the surface. Border control is currently questioning Baal about Iruma.

“If I could ask why am I here”

The room is made out of grey bricks with one small window with bars. In  the middle a table with two chairs and a lamp on top.

“Where is Iruma” Henri asked

“Woah hold your horses. Why would I want anything to do with that kid?”

“You were the one who suggested that he was a human”

"So i was right"

“No, but you still might have believed that and kidnapped him for personal uses”

Baal started sweating even though he has nothing to do with Iruma’s disappearance.

“Now tell me what were you doing around 11 to 11:30 am"

“I did nothing!”

“I see… No alibi huh?”

“I didn’t mean it like that!”

“Hold him of for another day just in case he wants to say where Iruma is…” Henri got up from his seat and started walking towards the exit.

“LET ME OUT OF HERE OR ELSE-“

“You know threating someone with death is considered a crime right?” Henri looked back at Baal one last time before leaving the room.

Chapter Text

‘’Okay little man” Derkila made a cliff appear out of thin air “This is where you are going to learn how.

to fly”

Iruma looked down on the edge of the cliff not seeing the bottom “

Maybe we could do something smaller???” Iruma looked at Derkila with fear and hope that he would.

make the cliff a bit smaller, but also fearing he will not.

“No worries little man!” Derkila picked up Iruma “Are you ready?” The Missing king lifted Iruma as

high as his arms can reach.

“W-What do you mean ready?”

“3!”

“2!”

“1!”

“I’M NOT READY- AHH-” Derkila threw Iruma of the cliff.

Derkila looked down the cliff while Iruma is falling to his death.

“Hm…” Derkila snaped his fingers teleporting Iruma back
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” Iruma continued screaming.

“I can say with confidence you have no idea how to fly.”

“You thought I could fly????”

“I thought you would at least flap your wings a bit.”

“You think I know how to do that?!”

“Babies know how to do that”?

“Well, I never had wings before!”

“Hm…”

Derkila thought for a bit and made the cliff disappear and made a ladder with a mattress below it.

“Better?”

“I guess to...” Iruma tried shaking his wings “There is one problem.”

“What is it?”

“I don’t know how to move my wings…”

Derkila looked at Iruma with disappointment.

“You are fucking dumbass.”

“How is it my fault!?”

“I have no idea how is It your fault ,but I will throw you off this ladder until you learn!” Derkila is weirdly proud about chucking his child.

“Do you know how learning work?”

“Of course, I know! Practice!”

“I still don’t know how to move my wings!”

“Oh yeah”

Derkila started shaking Iruma’s wings rapidly.

“What are you doing?”

“Trying to teach you how to use your wings.”

 Iruma is clearly confused. The feeling feels weird and uncomfortable touching something that he does not normally have.

After some time Derkila stopped Iruma successfully flapped his wings.

“Look I did it!” Iruma’s excitement results in more wings and tail flaps.

“You did little man!” Derkila picked up him with proudness while the cliff appeared again. “Now fly!”

“AHH- “

Iruma got tossed by Derkila into the pit of doom and teleported back once again… maybe a few times, but unlike earlier he learned to stay in the air for some time before failing.

“Can we try the ladder?” Iruma asked before almost getting thrown of the cliff.

“Oh, yea I forgot about it” Derkila putted Iruma back on the ground.

Iruma Climbed the ladder that seemed taller than before, Iruma jumped repeatedly with no progress made, they went back to throwing him for the cliff since it gave visible improvement unlike the ladder.

After around an hour later Iruma finally did it.

“Derkila look at me!” Iruma flapped his wings faster and faster due to excitement which made him fly upwards uncontrollably.

“Good job little man I knew you could do it!” Derkila clapped his hands and made confetti appear out of nowhere. “Now fly to me!”

“H-How?!”

“Just try moving your body and your wings closer to the direction you want to go at!”

“I will try!” Iruma flew with a bit of trouble, but he absolutely nailed the landing.

“You did it little man!” Derkila hugged Iruma “Your father is proud of you!”

Iruma’s face turns a pinkish color after hearing that his parent is proud of him, the boy is so happy to hear those words he starts to tear up from joy.

“Thank you, dad.”

…

“DAD?!”  Derkila is in ultimate joy, he tightens the hug making Iruma almost unable to breath “Oh my devil this is the happiest moment of my life!”

Iruma realized he just accepted Derkila as his father figure, but he seems fine with it. They hug for a bit longer.

“Okay! Now my child what do you want to know?” Derkila puts Iruma down.

“Huh?” Iruma thinks for a bit “What time is it?”

“It’s…” Derkila looks at his wrist that has no watch on it. “It’s about:5.59!”

“5:59?!” Iruma is astonished “Was I here for an entire day!?!?!?”

“Nah at least two”

Iruma laid down in agony while sobbing to himself and Derkila just stared at him.

“You want me to get you back?”

“Yes please…”

“Okay but try out the ring I gave you first, we don’t want any incidents with it.”

“Okie” Iruma clicked a button on his new ring making all the demon features disappear “I guess it works!”

“Great… now!” Derkila made a portal back to the Royal one “You start early this day, right?”

The royal one looked empty without the misfits in it. Iruma went through the Portal a looked around.

“Well, it will be a pleasant surprise to see you are back!” Derkila is on the other side of the portal “Sadly I am unable to keep you company, so just talk to your little ring friend will ya?”

“You mean Ali?” Iruma looks at both rings “I completely forgot about him!!”

“Well, I’m sure both of you will have a nice talk now… see you later young prince!” Derkila closed the portal leaving Iruma alone.

“Young prince… he is not wrong about me; I am his child after all.”

A lot of footsteps can be heard outside of the classroom, yet no one is talking.

“I’m sure they will find him!”

“Yea man the whole border control is looking for him no need to worry!”

Voice of Iruma’s classmates appears outside.

Jazz opens the door “Listen man it’s not like he would suddenly be here- “

Everyone looks at Iruma.

“Uh… hi?”

“IRUMA!” Everyone rushes towards the boy and gives him the biggest hug that the netherworld has ever witnessed.

“What is going on here!?” Kalego bursts into the classroom.

…

“I’m done” Kalego retreats.

“Iruma-sama we are so glad you are back! Next time I shall look over every single step you take!” Asmodeus announces.

“Y-You don’t have to do that!” Iruma panics

“Exactly Azz! Iruma needs privacy!” Lied protects Iruma.

“Iruma-chi got too much privacy!!!!!” Clara jumps on top of Iruma.

“Leave Iruma-samas head alone stupid Clara!” Alice tries to take off Clara from Iruma’s head.

“Should I tell them what happened?” Iruma thinks to himself “One day maybe, but for now I shall enjoy not blowing their minds…”

A couple of hours later in the border control.

“See I told you I had nothing to do with that kid!” Baal says while going out the building.

“We are sorry for the misunderstanding…” Henri Apologizes

Baal looks back with disappointment one last time before flying away.

…

“You got that spying bug on him Narnia?” Henri’s tone changed into a lot more serious one.

“Yes” Narnia shows up behind Henri.

“Great, now we’ll see if my suspicion is correct…”
