Allen and Sara were walking together inside the forest. A tense and awkward atmosphere enveloped the two.
Suddenly, ‘Sara, it’s a bother, so if you want to say sothing then say it. Don’t just stare at my back, it’s uncomfortable.’
“…?!”
To Sara, who was following behind Allen silently, was shocked to hear a whisper-like voice suddenly. She opened her eyes big.
‘Telepathic communication?!’
It was one of the techniques used to send ssages to another without creating any sound or voice. It’s an ability to receive and transmit information only using the mind.
She had never seen or t soone who this kind of skill before. And she was surprised.
‘It’s not telepathy, though it’s almost the sa. I’m only using my mana and sending it directly to your brain to transport information… it’s like sending MMS I guess~’
Indeed, it wasn’t the psychic skill [ Telepathy ]. It was only done using mana and it was a technique that only those who were skilled in mana could use. It needs precise technique and skill to do it… However, the skill [ Telepathy ] is more superior than this skill.
It’s just like an inferior version… unlike [ Telepathy ] the exchange had a delay of ti and the longer the distance between the two, the longer the ssage would be received. The other clear difference is that the ssages ring directly inside the head in using [ Telepathy ], but this one rings in the ear directly.
“You really have nurous extraordinary skills… don’t you?” Sara sighs. “Say, Magwa- no, first of all, what should I call you, Magwayan or Allen?”
Allen stops and turned around. He looked at Sara amusingly and curtsied. “My forr na is Cris Allen Villaflores, well, due to so circumstance in the past when I was still a child; my na was changed into Allen Bando… So now, I’m currently called as that. Magwayan is just one of my alias… However, you can call either way~”
“Mag-, no, Allen,” Sara hesitated. She bit her lips and started, “What are you? A monster? A demon? What is this about a Monster King? What’s with that appearance? What about… ?”
“So many questions at once…” Allen muttered with a faint smile. “Well, answering them is not a problem…”
“First of all, are you bothered about my appearance?”
Silver hair and crimson eyes. The dark ashy skin, strange tattoos, the tail, the pair of horns and the black angelic wings… it was extrely strange, anyone would be bothered by it.
“… …”
In addition, those iron shackles on his wrists and ankles that made him looked like he was a monster being chained and imprisoned and had just managed to get away and flee….
Yeah, she’s bothered… extrely bothered!! (ーー゛)
Allen stared at the girl’s expression before he took a black colored plain mask and wore it. In a blink of an eye, his horns, his wings, his tail, the strange markings and even his shackles had disappeared leaving only his silver hair a pair of crimson eyes, and the dark grey skin, aside from the extra monstrosity which had disappeared, nothing seems to have changed from him.
He didn’t bother reverting back to his original black-haired youth appearance, after all, that was ‘Allen’ the other him… as a sign of respect for him, he doesn’t want to use that appearance. This new image seed to be fine in its own way~
“Am I a Demon, Monster or a human…” Allen slowly stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of Sara’s hazy eyes, “That’s actually a good question.”
“… …”
The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
“Did you know, to most people in the world, I’m an evil demon. This hand of mine has been stained with so much blood that you can’t even imagine. The number of people I’ve killed isn’t in the tens, or hundreds, or even thousands… it’s probably in the tens of thousands. If you collected all of their corpses, you could create a small mountain.” Of course, he was talking about his life in the previous world. “... In the world, even the most terrifying mass-murderer would only have killed a fraction of the number of people I’ve killed.”
“A demon, a monster… Certainly, I was called as such many tis even giving a title [ The Black Demon King ]. But still…” Allen stared at Sara’s eyes with eyes filled with sincerity.
“I’m a human…”
“… …” Sara gave him a doubtful look.
Allen chuckled. “I’m really human, have a human family, parents and loving sister. Though due to circumstances, I’ve beco a bit special… and with so additional skill physiques, I had turned into sothing like this… but originally, I’m a human. I didn’t kill because I wanted to… you can say circumstances called for it but still, I know it wasn’t a good reason.”
Allen stared at Sara with an unusually gentle look. “So, I will give it to you, the choice of judging … with your own eyes, ears and mouth…”
“… …”
“What do you think I am…?” Allen smiled faintly.
Sara didn’t answer as she fell into a deep thought.
Without waiting for her answer, Allen shrugged. “As for the Monster Kings, it’s a group of extrely powerful Monsters ruling the Monster world and I happened to beco one of them… that’s why I am a Monster King, bearing the title of [ Monster King of Envy ]… The only human Monster King in history~”
“The one who you saw before was Azi Dahaka, the [ Monster King of Demise ]…”
Sara gave a look of understanding and not understanding at the sa ti…
The scale of what he was talking seems to be very high… but as to how high, she can’t imagine.
“Then what about ?” Sara looked inquisitively at Allen. “What are you planning to do to ?”
Allen’s lips curled into a grin. It was a smile filled with sincerity at the sa ti, a bit mischievous.
“Obviously, I’m going to bring you with … from now on, you are my woman~”
He paused, and Sara was keenly aware that he was waiting for her answer with interest.
“… …” Sara started blushing a little. Although she had also thought about it but still, hearing it from a man was extrely embarrassing.
Did she really want to beco involved with this young man? She asked herself. She was already 27 years old and as a woman who had already gone past marriageable age, she also wanted to taste love. And Allen who had taken her innocence was the best candidate.
Although she had hoped for this since after all that happened, still, the mont she was already standing on the stage, she can’t help but hesitate and feel a stage fright that for a mont, Sara was silent.
“I don’t suppose my opinion can be of much interest to you?” She countered stiffly.
She had guessed that Allen was not asking for her confirmation but instead stating that already confird decision. He doesn't need her opinion as he had already decided everything himself.
“On the contrary, I care a great deal,” Allen told her, a wry smile altering his expression and once again she was disturbedly aware of how attracted this young man could be when he chose. The darkened skin didn’t stop his beauty from showing and instead it gives him a devilish charm that is difficult to resist.
“But why should you?” Sara responded awkwardly, trying to avert her eyes from being blinded.
“I really don’t get you… your expression is always saying that nothing matters to you, even your own personal affairs.”
“… …”
“Be honest with … Allen," She stared right at him. Her expression extrely serious, "... what do you think of ? Am I just another woman you have t in your life? If you’re just manipulating my heart with half-hearted feelings, then just--”
“I am not…” Allen cut her off. He nodded. “Indeed, I have t many beautiful won in my journey… I have many won in my side, caring for my own safety… loving despite knowing all of my misgivings.”
“I don’t think that’s a nice thing to say in front of a woman you’re trying to court…” Sara’s eyebrows twitch.
Was he mocking her? Sara wondered. Would it not be judicious to beat a hasty retreat before she beca an object of further derision in this small escapade the silver-haired youth in front of her was playing?
Yet, in spite of herself, she remained still, listening to what the charming man in front of her was going to say.
“I’m fully aware, still, I want to be honest with you, just as my feelings were.” Allen’s expression softened. “Be honest, you’re not the only one… I also have soone other than you, though not right now. All of them have so things they wanted and needed to do, so we separated temporarily. I will be picking them up when the ti cos and that ti is getting near.”
“… …”
“Of course, if you told to leave them for you, I would refuse. All of them are good people; good won and I don’t want to lose them. Despite knowing my incorrigible side, they still compromised and decided to choose and stay with ." Allen wore a boyish grin. "... Obviously, I also wanted you…”
“You’re the worst…” Sara muttered. However, her tone wasn’t soone cursing but only stating an irrevocable fact.
“I can’t help it~” Unlike the other ‘Allen’, he was honest and frank. “Has it not occurred to you that n are prone to be susceptible to pretty won?”
Sara sighed as she has already given up. “You really was the type of man who doesn’t care a jot what anyone thinks of him~”
