The Demon King's Daughter

The Demon King's Daughter
Mark



Savilla gazed into a mirror in the toilet, noticing that her scar had disappeared yesterday but had now appeared again, in a strange shape.


"It's like a pentagram" Savilla knows what a pentagram looks like because her uncles and aunts always warn her not to wear anything that is pentagram-shaped and symbolizes evil.


"This could be serious..," If his uncle and aunt knew they would definitely leave Savilla tattooing it around his neck.


These three days, since Savilla had not worn her necklace, strange things had happened to her. Starting from him who felt he was being watched, Prince who seemed more aggressive than usual, and now, a strange mark appeared on his neck.


Savilla sighed, she covered the strange mark with a square-shaped plaster and immediately exited the toilet. He was not in the mood to talk to, so he settled in the back garden of the school again.

"It's weird, it's supposed to be area 11. But there's no sign of the devil or anything here" Calix complained, he tried again, concentrating his mind, but nothing. "Did Vale lie to us?"


"Actually..," Rose wanted to say something, but she wasn't sure.


"What's up Rose? Just say it."


"So, on the way here, I felt a demonic aura passing through us."


"How is it possible? you mean we ran into that demon, but just now everyone who passed us was a normal person, I didn't feel anything either." Celix scrunched his forehead, why could Rose feel that demonic aura but she didn't?


"You know, right, that demons like to look like humans. And, there are indeed such demons, which can only be detected by a few exorcists."


"Although, my level as an exorcist is much higher than yours, right? There's no way you're feeling it but I'm not."


"That's just your personal opinion! I mean, in part, whether or not an exorcist detects a demon is not determined by its level of power!"


"But the point is, we've already lost that demon, huh?" Celix spoke weakly.


Rose grieves. She knows that Celix will blame her again, "We can do it tomorrow, really."


What is needed is not the devil. Except the one who called the devil or the one who was targeted by the devil.


Celix and Rose immediately looked at the source of the sound. There was a young man smiling towards them. "Do you want help?"


"Who are you?"


"Are you a demon too?"


They asked simultaneously. Celix took out his gun which he had loaded with a special bullet.


The young man continued to smile. "I'm not a demon. Put your gun down, it won't work unless it's shot at the devil, right?"


Celix was even more in a precautionary position, 'where did this kid know that my gun was specifically for the devil?'


Rose who didn't even know about this looked towards Celix, 'So that's why he always shot without fear of misdirection.'


"Say, put the gun down." The young man spoke again, still smiling.


"Celix, just put it down."


Celix grieves resentfully before obeying Rose's orders.


"Now, I'm asking again, do you want my help?"


Rose and Calix looked at each other. Can they trust this guy?

Finally, school is over. Savilla's on her way home. As usual, he was just walking.


It's just that, when he was cool walking a grandmother approached him. Savilla looked at the grannies, her appearance looking terrible. He has long nails. His wrinkled face made his face look sinister, and his irregular teeth were clearly visible as he smiled towards Savilla.


"Son, I'm lost. Can you take me home?"
