Chapter 5 - friend, mentor and new information

(Mc's pov)

Uh my head. I said in a groggy tone

Well what did you expect you used all of your magicules.

Huh who's there. All grogginess lost

Relax. The voice said. that's no way to talk to someone that you fought along side.

Ah that's right the old man. I thought. Oh it's you. I said deadpan.

Yes it is he said back. In a cheerful voice.

So where are we? I asked seriously.

We my new friend and disciple are in the demon realm. His voice started cheerful but ended bitterly.

I know that but where in the demon realm. I asked anger clearly present in my voice.

Oh your in my house or more accurately in my hole in the ground that I sleep in sometimes. He said deadpan.

Oh I see so what are you going to teach me since you called me your disciple?I questioned with some Curiosity present in my voice.

Well I'm going to teach you how to fight both on the ground and in the sky. Than I'm going to teach you magicule manipulation and control and finally I will teach you my knowledge of the things that are out side of the demon realm. He in a childish voice

I see and when you taught me everything you know then what? I asked him.

Don't know. He said.

Fine I guess let's start. I said

Good.he said

(Unknown amount of time later)

(Old man pov)

This kid is strong I'll give him that and he's talented damn does he complain a lot he never shut's up just constantly complaining about how boring it is. The only time he doesn't complain is when he's learning magic. And I think he copied my unique skills and I'm not going to lie it annoyed me at first but it's probably one of his unique skills and I'm fine with that because he's going to need them when he gets to the cardinal world.

Hay old man. That brat called.

Yes. I called back.

I finessed training my unique skills. He said

Okay well take a seat. I said and he did. Today I'm going to teach you about the demon lords. Only one of them is actually a demon but who cares.

What only one is a demon then why are they called demon lords. And he asked a smart question for once.

The demon lords aren't all demons the only demon amongst them is the primordial demon of red the lord of darkness guy crimson. He is the first demon lord. Then there's millim nova the second demon lord and she holds the title of the destroyer. And then there's the fairy queen Ramiris and they are the only ones that haven't changed.

So how do they choose demon lords. Another smart question from the kid I have to see if pigs are flying yet.

Once you get to a certain level of strength you can challenge a demon lord for their seat on the council. I said

I see. The kid said.

So just know if they are calling them selves a demon lord don't fuck with them. I Warned.

Okay okay chill. This brat

Okay go rest or something. I said

(Unknown amount of time later )

(Mc's pov)

Well I guess I'll go train with the old man's unique skills that I've managed to copy. Think to myself.

Reaching the training ground I began to use the old man's skills trying to implement them into my fighting style.

I found that for time sage you can't seed up and slow down in the same barrier so I'll have to find a work around.

(Unknown amount of time later)

(Mc's POV)

Fuck is the demon realm boring its just fight here fight there don't stop fighting and training or your going to die now I see why the old man mad this place. I should probably start working on getting manipulatin skills for water and lightning just in case I can't use my other skills.

So first let's lightning if I imagine my body covered in lightning.

Zap creek zap

Yes it works. so does it make me faster is the question.

So I lowered my self into a sprint position and…

BOOM!!!

Holy shit I'm going to die the old man is going to kill me. Though before blacking out.

(Old man pov)

BOOM!!!

That's it that boy has just broadcast our position to every demon in the area.

Well I guess I should go get him and run.

Damn why does this seem so familiar me running with the brat unconscious. I can't help but think. While running for my life.

Hold up I've taught him everything I know. yah when we're out of danger I'll right a note and bounce. Can't deal with him anymore he's too much work.

(Unknown amount of time later)

(Mc's pov)

Uh hay old man you their. I called out.

Old man. Called again

He wouldn't right. Getting up to look around I see it a note carved in the wall.

I've taught you everything I know it's time for you to go out and see the demon realm teach another worlder like I taught you who knows you might stay with the one you taught but right now you're weak so get stronger become the strongest.

Damn I was abandoned guess it's just us hu envy. I could feel envy trying to respond and it made me smile knowing that she will always be there for me.

(Unknown amount of time later)

(Mc's pov)

I'm still wondering how trying to evolve into an arch demon. Hay envy. I thought to my skill. Do you think the next other worlder we find will stick around if we find one. And I think that I puzzled the poor girl with that question. I can feel her confusion and it's adorable. Did I just think my skill was adorable oh no I'm losing my mind.

I hope I find someone soon before I start thinking of names for her.

I think I'm walking In circles or the entire demon realm from here out is the same.

I'm just going to walk straight and hope I'm not as directionally challenged as zoro.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Okay envy about that name…

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP THERE'S A MONSTER!

Okay that sounds close. As run to find who's dumb enough to scream in the demon realm.

I find what looks to be a lesser demon looking at a screaming lesser demon.

Hay envy should I help or watch the show. Oh come on envy are you mad that I didn't start thinking of names. Still a cold shoulder okay I'm sorry. Huh we'll talk about this later. I said sighing and flying to the voice.

Arriving to the location of the voice I saw two lesser demons one clearly about to attack the other.

Alright ugly I called out to the lesser demons. Prepare to die no matter how temporary your death is.

(Unknown's pov)

I woke up in a strange place with what feels like grass and dirt under me. Witch is strange because I died in the hospital when my sickness got the best of me.

Is anyone there I called out.

(Affirmative) a cold robotic voice said in my head.

Who's there. called back.

(I'm your unique skill bright sage)

unique skill I asked back in confusion.

( yes one of your of your two unique skills)

what is a unique skill? I asked.

(A unique skill is something that is unique to you manifested from your desires and held in your soul).

My soul what's that. I asked the voice.

(Your soul is your…)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP THERE'S A MONSTER!

(Correction that is a lesser demon)

A demon does that mean I'm in hell? I asked in fear.

(Yes…)

Alright ugly. A voice called out above me. Prepare to die no matter how temporary your death is.

(Mc's POV)

Alright time to do something cool. I thought preparing my fire arrow.

I command that you die and be silent. I said in my best Gilgamesh voice. Than released the fire arrow.

Are you okay. I asked the one I just saved.

Yah please don't hurt me . They replied scared.

I'm not going to. I said to the lesser demon.

You young… one are a lesser demon and so you shall be my disciple. I said excitedly but with a notable pause. Even though I'm not an arch demon I'm still stronger than you and have a lot to teach you about. I said. Now do you have any unique skills? I asked.

Yes… I have two one that talks to me and helps me called bright sage and a skill that lets me create, control and become storms. Also I'm a girl not a young one. The girl said.

Okay well kid first thing first never tell someone your skills unless someone tells you theirs first. I said in a chastising tone.

Second your training is going to be literal hell so prepare yourself on the way to your new home.

(Unknown amount of time later)

(Mc's POV)

Come on kid you can do better I've fought stronger demons than this one at your level of power. I said to the girl I saved.

Easy for you to say you're overpowered and need a nerf in your power. She called back still fighting the swarm of lesser demons to try to evolve.

You need to kill them with one strong attack use all of your magicules in one attack. I said while manipulating a ball of water in my hand.

Fine. she yelled and released a knock off of my fire arrow using lightning.

Well damn. I said catching her before she fell. Looks like we have another greater demon one with a very useful skill that I copied with the help of envy and it doesn't seem to work the same but hay what are going to do. I think to myself.
