I entered the throne room. The room was huge but mostly empty. There was a long red carpet in the middle and at the and was a big golden throne. On this throne sat the strongest person in this world. He wore a black coat which was in perfect contrast to his blood red hair. His gold shimmering eyes looked deep into my soul. He held out his hand and on its palm was a red magic circle. It was a blessing from the demon god granted to the person with the greatest pride, the Authority of Pride. There are seven blessings from the demon god which are granted to the biggest sinners in this world. No one knows the exact power of the demon god's blessings.

"Mailce." He had a deep voice. "You've been away for a long time. I hope you had a good reason to let me wait for nearly a month." His glared at me with his beautiful eyes. The mana flow changed and I was able to feel his anger.

"I'm terribly sorry, your majesty. There was a divine barrier around the castle." His gaze didn't soften. "Well... but because of this I was able to get some interesting informations!"

"Keep talking." By the look of his eyes glaring at my like he would look at the biggest scum on this world, I couldn't help but shiver.

"Inside of the castle was a holy sword. And it seems like there was an angel sealed within the sword!"

"An angel you say? And?"

"The angel was about to turn into a fallen angel! But the angel is not the only strange thing. There was also a fox spirit." His gaze slowly began to soften.

"A falling angel and a fox spirit? That's interesting. But what's more important now is the undead king." 

"Yes! The undead king looked useless at the beginning. While talking to him I had the feeling he knows nothing about this world. He didn't even knew what the Authority of the Undead King was."

"He knows nothing? You said he seemed useless at the beginning, does that mean he is usefull now?" The look on his face had now completely softened and the mana flow turned normal again.

"Yes. In the fight with an orc lord he died over 50 times. It looked like he lost his will to fight but in the end he killed him. He looked like a completely different person."

"He died 50 time? So he already awakened the Authority of the Undead king?" He looked a bit shocked. "What do you mean by 'different person'?"

"Suddenly he regenerated his will to fight. And after the fight he looked a bit confused. I almost seemed like he was unconsious."

"Hmm. Good you can go now." He waved me out. I bowed and left the room.

Malice bowed and left the room. "Awakening in under 3 weeks? Should I get rid of him? No. No matter how strong this bug becomes, no one in this world could become stronger than me. I'm the strongest demon king. 70% of Demona is under my control, not even the gods could harm me!" I couldn' help but laugh when thinking about these weaklings. "With the undead king we would be able to control the undeads. Alais!"

A teleortation gate appeared in front of me and a young demon boy with red hair and golden eyes came out of it. "You called for me, you highness?" The boy who came out of the gate was my second son Alais D. Daimon.

"Alais go and bring the undead king to me!"

"As you wish." He entered another gate and left.

Alais was smart and strong but sadly he lacks the ability to rule over people. It was a shame. He was the my only son with both, the blood red hair and the golden eyes. My other two sons only inherted the golden eyes. "He is useless. He has both of them but is useless!"

"A Ruler?! What is a Ruler doing here?" I became a bit anxious.

"He wants do destroy the world tree." Sylviette ansewerd my question instantely. "Different from the gods the Rulers don't care what happens to this world. Some of them even want to destroy it. One of them is the Wendigo, our guest." Wendigo? I never heared about such a monster.

"It is a cruel monster that forces people to cannibalism with the help of illusions or possesing their body." Something like this exists? "It's an evil spirit which lives inside of the Spirit Forest.

"The spirit forest?" 

Hellen: "Spirit Forest is the name of the forest we're in right now. The Core of the World is a place hidden deep inside of the Spirit Forest."

"Thanks Hellen."

"No need to thank me. A servants duty is to serve its master."

Sylviette: "All the animals that were here a moment ago already fled. You should go too! I'll send you to the other side of the forest." Rey looked at me with a very sad look on her face. Her look symbolized me that she wanted to help Sylviette. Of course I want to help too. If she would lose this world would be destroyed.

Me: "Wait! Do you can defeat the Wendigo all alone?"

Sylviette: "That could become difficult. But I don't want to drag you all in this."

"But this thing wants to destroy this world! We're already involved in this."

"Ok. Then-" Something that felt like an eathquake interrupted Sylviette. "He's here! Get ready. Sylviette flew high to protect the front and we went to the back. 

Time passed and nothing happened. "Master! It's coming! But this mana... it's overwhelming." Something appeared in the distance. It was a monster that let me shiver by the mere sight of it. It looked like a humanoid deer. Its head was just a skull and its arms were as long or even longer than the legs. The chest was a little torn and you were able to see a bit of the heart. I was so frightened, I wasn't even able to move. The only thing I could do was to stand there and watch the Wendigo as it gets closer.
