Chapter 2

"Hmm..."

As I rubbed my throbbing head and got up, I found myself in a strange world where the sky and the ground were completely white.

"Um, why am I here again?"

I was sure I was doing my daily training. Then I found a strange crack...

"Oh, right, I fell into that."

I knew it was dangerous, but... ugh, I hate how stupid I am...

"Ara, you seem to have woken up."

"Huh?"

At that moment, a woman's voice spoke to me as I was feeling down. I turned to the sound and saw a beautiful older sister with black hair.

She had a slender body, but her chest was disproportionately large. Her skin was white and soft, and her hair was long and black like the night. There was no one as beautiful as her in my village. I couldn't help but stare, and then I noticed something.

"Horns...?"

Two impressive horns, disproportionate to her small face, stood tall on the older sister's head. Of course, ordinary humans don't have horns. The species with horns can only be one thing.

"Ah, a demon...?"

"Ara, you figured it out quickly."

Demons are known for their powerful magic. They are stronger than humans, and even experienced warriors find it difficult to defeat them, as I recall from my textbooks.

"Ha, I've never seen one before. My name is Louis Bardy. Nice to meet you."

I bowed politely to the demon older sister. I don't know the demon's etiquette, but I don't think it's rude.

"You don't seem scared when you hear 'demon.'"

The older sister asked, sounding curious. Indeed, demons and humans don't get along well, so it's normal to be scared. But for some reason, I didn't feel scared from the older sister in front of me. I guess I thought she was beautiful before I felt scared. I shouldn't hide it; I should tell her honestly.

"Hmm... Probably because you're very beautiful, right?"

"Wha...!?"

My words made the older sister exclaim and her face turned red. Did I anger her? It might have been rude to comment on someone's appearance in the first meeting. I need to be more careful...

"O, calm down, Testarossa. Don't get flustered just because you haven't heard sweet words in thousands of years. But this kid has a cute face..."

The older sister muttered something in a low voice. Did I anger her?

As I was thinking this, another person appeared in front of me.

"Mu, you're already awake? Let me see your face."

A cute girl around 10 years old appeared in front of me with a haughty tone. She had brown skin and blood-red eyes. Her long, jagged black hair and sharp canines were distinctive. But what caught my attention more were the single horn on her head and the impressive tail extending from her buttocks. It was different from the older sister's; it was more like a lizard's tail.

"Hello..."

I greeted her hesitantly and introduced myself. The girl seemed satisfied and introduced herself.

"Um, you seem energetic. I am the 7th Dragon King. You can call me 'Dragon King' without any formalities."

"Dragon... King...!?"

The name that came out of the girl's mouth was unbelievable. The Dragon King is a title only the leader of the 'Dragon Race,' known as the strongest species on earth, can bear. It's hard to believe that the girl in front of me is the Dragon King.

"Hehe, it's been a while since I've surprised someone. By the way, did you hear the name of the one whose face turned red?"

"Huh?"

The cute, flustered response came from the older sister. Could she be as important as the young Dragon King?

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet! Listen carefully, puny human! I am the ruler of darkness and chaos, the supreme ruler of the demon race, and the 66th Demon King, 'Testarossa Harlequin'!"

The older sister introduced herself with grand gestures. There are many things to comment on, but what I'm most curious about is the 'Demon King' part. Only the most powerful among the powerful demons can bear this title. This older sister is the Demon King... Hmm, I can't believe it.

"Ara, it seems you're not convinced. Well, it can't be helped, I guess I don't look like a Demon King because I'm beautiful?"

"Ha, even if you haven't been complimented in thousands of years, would a Demon King get this flustered?"

"U, be quiet! You were also excited to see a member of the opposite sex after so long!"

"Hey! There's no need to say that in front of this kid!"

The two of them started arguing, leaving me behind. I couldn't tell if they were getting along or not.

"Phew, phew. There's no point in arguing here."

"So, so, how about showing our true forms quickly?"

"Ara, that's a good suggestion from a young Dragon King. Let's do it."

"One word too many, you stray Demon King."

The two of them started changing their bodies while still arguing.

The older sister, who called herself the Demon King, changed into a revealing outfit. Ugh, I don't know where to look with all the stimulation. Of course, it's not just the outfit; her magic power exploded and spread everywhere. I've never felt such a powerful magic presence before.

And the girl who called herself the Dragon King... she turned into a large black dragon. Her body was probably as long as three of me.

"A, ah, ah..."

"Hehe, do you believe I'm the Dragon King now?"

"Welcome, boy. This is the 'Infinite Prison,' a sealed space where the Demon King and the Dragon King are imprisoned. I look forward to our time together."

And so, my long, long life with them began.
