"You are allowed to speak." Permission from Lucius.
With the eyes of the present students, Serion Stolas spoke. “According to legend, when Machina created Demonic Gears he would always be surrounded by black smoke around him. When the maid asked why there was always smoke every time he worked. Machina replied, that it is not smoke, but the Demonic Gear used to make Demonic Gear.”
"So you think the Demonic Gear that Damien has now is the Damonic Gear that Machina used to create the Demonic Gear?"
"As you say."
“Do you know the name of this Demonic Gear?”
"According to legend, the Demonic Gear's name was Machina Hand."
Lucius recorded the name on his tablet and asked again. "Why is no information passed on to the recipient?"
[This teacher is like an interrogator…]
“There is no record of that. But according to my theory, at the time Machina Hand was created, Damonic Gear technology wasn't as advanced as it is now, so there probably wasn't an information transfer system yet.”
"Thanks for the answer."
“Thank you too for trusting my knowledge.”
“Excuse me Mister Lucius.” Damien spoke instead.
"What?"
“Can I change Damonic Gear.” Wanting to learn swordplay, Damien wanted to have a sword-type Damonic Gear.
“No way, a demon can only have one Demonic Gear in their entire life.”
"Is there a way to take it off."
"There, kill yourself and merge with the world."
“What the hell is that answer?!” Damien shouted angrily.
“Demonic Gears are part of the world itself, but only when summoned using a ritual, Demonic Gears will take form.” Lucius explained. "If you want to let go, then the only way is by death."
Helplessly, Damien could only accept Machina Hand. After that, Damien went to the canteen with Felix. When they sat down on the bench with their food still, Damien started the conversation.
"Why are you almost late today? Usually aren't you very punctual."
"Because I practiced too hard yesterday until late at night."
"Practice for what?"
"Make the race tomorrow, my lord." Obviously Felix. "Although I'll probably only go for number four."
"Then who are the three above you?" Damien said as he started to eat.
“An Irregular named Sylvia, she is from the Seir family which is renowned for their speed. Elion Eligos, I hate to admit it but he has an amazing Familiar in terms of speed. And finally you yourself, my lord.”
[Why is this demon placing me at the top?] Damien thought before speaking. "I may be the last."
“Hah!!!” Hearing that Felix was very surprised. "Why Mister, aren't you very strong?"
"I can't bring up my wings because my blood is too strong."
“I see… your Satan blood is too much so the curse is too much.”
[Is that Satan's curse?] Damien's mind was confused.
"So that you don't look stupid in front of your subordinates, then let this King explain to you what Satan's Curse is." Amon gave an explanation to his students. “Back then, Satan once cursed all the demons in the Underworld…”
Satan is a demon who is arrogant and thirsty for power. That's why even though he created all the demons, he also gave a curse to all the demons to make the demons become savage and wild. This is so that Satan can easily control the demon, and no demon is smart enough to knock him off his throne.
There is only one way to remove Satan's Curse, and that is by becoming the Demon King. In the present era, it could be said that all devils are descended from the previous Demon Kings. That's why they don't look savage and wild.
But Satan's blood is full of curses that still exist in every demon. This causes the Demon to sometimes become wild and ferocious. And those who have a high concentration of satanic blood, will go wild when they bring out the four aspects of demonic characteristics.
“But you don't have Satan's Curse within you even though you are a descendant of Satan. Because satan only curses demons in the Underworld, not his descendants in the human world.”
That's what caused Amon to accept Damien as his disciple. Even though Amon was the Demon King, he didn't have the power to lift the curse on other demons.
The reason why Damien could become wild and savage, was because the five Demon King Bloodlines within him couldn't harmonize, and were always clashing with each other causing chaos within Damien. This chaos will become clear when Damien brings out his demonic traits. He will be wild and savage.
"It's okay my lord, I will carry you to the finish line." Felix said
“You don't have to do that. I got enlightened after receiving the Demonic Gear just now.”
"You are great sir, can solve the problem briefly."

In the forest, near the waterfall where Damien lives.
Damien put a lot of experiments into Machina Hand. And finally he found a solution so he could fly without showing his wings. Finished doing the experiment, Damien took a break.
"My school life seems to be going well even though I'm known as a descendant of Dark Soul, why?"
“Probably the teachers didn't announce it, and also even though you are known to be a descendant of the evil Dark Soul, very few want to extract your blood.”
"How come?"
“After all Dark Soul is the Great Demon King that all demons respect, so as his descendant you will also be respected.”
“But why did Master have this bloodline exposed? Wouldn't it be better to keep it a secret?" From yesterday Damien was confused by this.
“That's so people won't be too curious about how you got that strong, even though you're a child with no family name and no real background. By announcing that you are a descendant of Dark Soul, people will understand why you are so powerful. If it's not like this, there are people who will continue to suspect you and will eventually make it difficult for you to walk."
"You are very wise, Master." Damien never thought like Amon.
“Of course, I'm the Great Demon King you know?”
Hearing the Great Demon Lord's words, Damien remembered the statue he had encountered at the Academy. And about Amelia whom the Princess calls.
"Master, why does Amelia have the name Amon as her family name, are you related to Amelia?"
“Demons without a clan only have one word for their name, and when they create a clan, then their own name will become a family name. So of course Ameleia uses the word Amon as her family. She's this Demon King's daughter after all.”
