From Imp to Demon God: Conquering the Demon World With a Succubus Chapter 2: Demon Name
"Quick! Pick up the ax and start mining. You’re lucky to have already found Velour Rubies."
Myles was taken aback. He was still in a daze when he received the ax from the imp.
He grasped it tightly as he continued to stare at his face in the stone.
"Start now! If the Alpha notices you slacking off, he will disable you with his tail!"
"What’s the point of staring at your face?" The imp chuckled. "You’re already ugly. Is it that hard to accept?"
Myles frowned and his face beca even more ugly.
"Damn it! I can’t be uglier than this."
Myles found it difficult to accept, his once handso face was reduced to a repulsive, sickening, he barely could call face.
Whack!
A sharp noise echoing behind him startled him awake.
"Quick! Act like you’re working now while the Alpha is still busy with others."
Myles sighed and raised the ax, hitting at the wall around the gemstone.
He asked, "What is this gemstone called?"
"Gemstone? That’s Velour Rubies. They are used for contract seals or pleasure artifacts."
"Pleasure artifacts?" Myles frowned.
"You seriously have lost your mind, haven’t you?" The imp stared at his friend in disbelief.
Myles did not reply, so he continued, "The succubus are known to create pleasure artifacts. That’s why the Lady of Chains and Whispered Vows own the city and the rights of the mine."
"Lady of Chains and Whisphered Vows? What’s with that cringe ass—"
"Shh!!!" The imp panicked. He imdiately stopped mining and said, "Why are you insulting our city lord?"
Myles rolled his eyes and said, "Can’t she have a proper na?"
The imp was dumbstruck. He sighed and said, "Alright, I’ll treat you as soone who lost his mories and never received the general knowledge of the Demon World after you’re born."
The imp was about to open his mouth when he realized sothing.
He grinned and asked, "Don’t you have a na? What is your na?"
"My na?"
Myles thought for a while and said, "Myles Martin."
"Myles Martin?" The imp stared at him with furrowed eyebrows and said, "Sit."
Myles glared at the imp and growled. "Are you treating like a dog?"
"Dog?" The imp shrugged and said, "So, it was not your na."
Myles was surprised. I guess he was asking for my real na here, not my previous na as a human.
He said, "Well, I don’t know about my na. Do you?"
"I can’t believe it." The imp drew a sharp breath. "Everyone can lose their mories, but not their na. It’s as important as their life."
"Why can’t they forget their na?"
The imp sighed helplessly. "I have a na, but I won’t dare to tell anyone about it. Sa as you, you never told your na, so how can I know? Sa for the Lady of Chains and Whisphered Vows.
We call each other depending on how we address each other. I call you Kin because we are on the sa level and in the sa race. We call him Alpha because he holds authority over us and he’s a lot stronger despite being in the sa race."
Myles frowned and said, "Why can’t we let others know about our real na?"
"Because, it only ans we are submitting to that person we told our na to. Us demons are born with a na. The mont we arrived into this world, we heard the first two words and that’s our na. We will never forget it. Even if others try to erase our mories, it will never disappear.
If others get to know our na, our soul will enter a contract where we beco their slaves. We can’t do anything about it."
Myles was silent for a while.
He continued hitting the rocks and pondered.
I guess, I’m lucky that I don’t know about my demon na.
He furrowed his eyebrows and grumbled in exasperation.
Damn it! I’m still a slave!
As Myles was pondering about how to escape the place, the sa voice echoed in his head again.
[You have finally integrated into the body of an imp.
Do you want to see your status?]
Myles was startled.
He turned around and swept his gaze. He glanced at the imp beside him, who stared at him with confused expression, and asked, "Did you hear that voice?"
"Voice?" The imp frowned. "Other than us? No."
Myles lowered his head and mumbled, "I swear I heard it."
The imp was stunned and dropped his ax, grabbing Myles shoulder.
"Quick! What did it say? Did it tell you your na?"
Myles was surprised.
He turned towards the imp and spoke into the voice in his mind.
"Please do."
[Understood.
Here is your current status.]
[Na: Myles Martin
Demon Na: Vorash Kael Nethrux Zaal’eth Omnigra
Rank: Rank 5 Lesser Demon
Bloodline: Ancient Demon of Gluttony
Skills: Energy Drain]
Myles was frozen.
He stared at the hologram-like screen in front of him.
He turned towards the imp and pointed at the screen.
"Do you see that?"
"See what? A wall?"
Myles was lost for words.
He stared at the screen once again and read the contents.
Am I really the only one who can see it?
As he was pondering, he read his demon na and was startled.
He turned towards the imp, who kept staring at him with a confused expression, and said, "You said my na should be two words."
The imp nodded innocently.
"Yes. Even Greater Demons only have two words. A Demon Lord has three. A Demon King has four."
Myles turned towards the screen and turned towards the imp again, confusing the imp even more.
He asked, "How about five?"
"Five?" The imp frowned.
"I don’t know, I never heard about it."
Myles turned towards the screen again and counted each word of his demon na.
There are five. That ans my potential is higher than a king.
His eyes shone with delight.
There is a chance... I can rule this world.
He recalled what his boss said and grinned.
It seems you jinx it twice, boss.
He laughed harder, gaining the attention of the Alpha...
