-A declaration of war, the enemies of the world-
In the front of the Demon King castle,
A lot of Demons is gathering.
Standing in front of them.
The Demon King is watching them.
“A marvelous sight”
The number of Demons gathering is exceeding his expectations.
Thinking that he probably won't be able to gather this much by himself, he thanked the subordinate that made this possible.
“You have done a good job Carl, as expected from my right hand man”
“Your praise makes me happy, my lord”
While bowing, he was grateful to the King.
The Demons seems to be excited to go and start the massacre.
After all, they have heard that they will finally being able to release their full strength all over the world.
“...”
Knowing the demons personality, they probably won't be satisfied with the conclusion that he pursued.
But it’s already too late to back down now.
Even if he need to earn their enmity and getting removed from his position of the king, as long as his purpose is fulfilled he have no regrets.
But he can’t giving up his position as a king. Not now.
If he was getting demoted, the one who will become the next king will probably be his daughter.
He was prefered if it was Carl instead, but if someone without royal blood become king it would definitely invite riot.
After this is over, what then?
He never thinks about it, but once his plan succeed and the world is saved he was thinking of having a retirement in the corner of the world.
Bringing his daughter and wife, he will start a retirement in a small warm house with grandkids and surrounded with their laughter.
He even thinks it's good enough to cry for, but that means he have to give his daughter to someone else so he gives up that thought.
‘I should perish the thought. Someone like me didn't deserve that happiness. Instead…’

If he can give all of that happiness that he didn't deserve to his daughter, that would be the best thing to happen.
Making his resolve that he need to settle this war as soon as possible, and decrease both side of the victim as much as he can with their overwhelming power, he made his speech.
“MY FELLOW DEMONS, THANK YOU FOR COMING!”
All of the demons is watching him
“MY NAME IS ARTHUR! THE 5TH DEMON KING! AND YOUR ABSOLUTE LEADER!”
“OVER THAN TWO THOUSAND YEARS AGO, OUR ANCESTOR HAD FOUND THIS WORLD AND TRYING TO LIVE PEACEFULLY AMONG THEIR INHABITANTS!”
“HOWEVER, THEY REJECT US BECAUSE OF OUR APPEARANCE! THUS, WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO SUBJUGATE THEM BY FORCE TO EARN THE RIGHTS TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD!”
They all get excited
“FINALLY AFTER TAKING 1800 YEARS WE HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO CONQUER THE WORLD!”
“BUT, WE MADE A MISTAKE AND GETTING OVERCONFIDENT! THAT’S WHY WE WERE BANISHED INTO THIS LAND WITHOUT ANY SUN AND BLESSING OF EARTH!”
They made an annoyed face
“THANKS FOR THE EFFORT OF THE FIRST DEMON KING AND THE BLESSING OF OUR GOD, DRAGON KING ARGEVALT, WE MANAGED TO COUNTER THEM BACK!!”
Ooh! Shouts the army.
“HOWEVER, OUR POWER IS LIMITED IN THE OUTSIDE THANKS TO THAT ACCURSED GODDESS INFLUENCE!”
They looked angry while remembering her.
“BUT NO MORE!”
Arthur declares.
“NO MORE SHOULD WE LIVE IN FEAR OF THE WORLD UNDER THE SUN!”
“NO MORE SHOULD WE LIVE IN THIS DARK LAND WITHOUT ANY SUN!”
“WE WILL HAVE THEIR SUN FOR OURSELF. WE WILL HAVE OUR OWN PLACE TO BELONG!”
“WE WILL SUBMIT THE HUMANS AND DEMI HUMANS INTO OUR RULE, AND SHOW THEM THE MIGHT OF THE DEMONS!”
They started to get excited
“OUR TARGET IS THE THREE BIGGEST COUNTRIES THAT BECOME OUR OBSTACLE SINCE LONG AGO”
“ONCE THEY HAD BEEN DEFEATED, THE REST WILL EVENTUALLY SUBMIT TO OUR RULE”
“EVERYONE, SHOW OUR MIGHT TO THE HUMANS! SHOW OUR POWER TO THE DEMI HUMANS!
“LET US SHOW OUR STRENGTH.”
“LONG LIVE THE DEMON RACE!”
All of the demons are cheering.
‘Waaa!’ ‘Yeaa!’ ‘Finally, some fresh blood after a long time!’
All of them is getting excited for this war.
Like this, nobody is going to back down now.
But...
At that time.
“!?”
“Something” is in the sky.
The demon king is surprised.
But not just him.
‘Ooh.. ooh.. ’
Some of the elder looking demons is even starting to pray. While the younger one seems confused.
For the light had reached this dark territory is nothing short of what is called a miracle.
All of the demons looked confused and stare at the sky.
Cannot hold his surprise, the demon king shouts.
“This light… NO WAY!?”
The Demon King is dumbfounded.
Inside the world with a darkness and the only light is from the moon, such a bright light is a first in this land.
So, everyone is looking at this intense light.
All of the living being in this land is clearly seeing this light.
No.
Perhaps not just “this land”
With such a bright light, it was unsurprising if it reach every corner of the world.
However.
The sudden coming of “light” is not the problem.
That’s because.
The Demon King knows the identity of this light.
Only one being in this world is known to ooze this light.
And that one being.
Is the only being able to oppose his plan.
“Why..”
“Why now!?”
“You never make a move even when your own child is died, so why!?”
Cannot stop his emotions, he start to speak with a voice hinted with anger and pain.
“Have you decide to make a move right now? Did you hate us that much? Did you really hate us “Outsider” that much!? Have you finally decided to abandoned us for good this time...”
Goddess..!
Mutters the Demon King.
With a intense anger, he quietly watched the sky while gripping his hand.
