Edward didn’t realize that after transmigrating he would be sent back to the Hell that is math class. As he dozed off, someone nudged him. It was the girl who was arguing with his sister.

[Character: Silvia Fota]

Title: Princess of Kingdom of Hard Iron

Personality: Interested in Edward Moonchild. Smart, intelligent, and scheming.

[System’s Remark: Extremely dangerous.]

“Are you okay Edward?”

Looking at her face of extreme concern, Edward couldn’t help but mentally sigh. He was already thinking about his will. Why did she have to be interested in him? Clearly, she was involved in the political system of the kingdom, if he randomly got engaged with her, he wouldn’t even know how he would die.

“Yeah I’m just a little tired, I passed out in the kitchen last night.”

“Sign, what kind of sister do you have?”

“You’re clearly sick but your sister doesn’t even spend the time to watch over you in the kitchen.”

As Silvia chastised Annie, Edward saw a shadow looming over her head. The figure that loomed over her head was the sister who didn’t take care of him in the kitchen.

As she kept bad-mouthing Annie behind her back, she suddenly felt a force pulling her ears. Annie was pulling her ears, with great strength. This wasn’t the strength of a normal woman, she was greatly enhanced by the tattoos, if she did that to a normal person it wouldn’t be hard to imagine her directly tearing their ears apart.

Silvia, unperturbed, just grasped Annie’s hands and forced them away from her ears. She turned around and glared at the bitch that made her look bad in front of her love interest.

‘Holy shit, Silvia is strong, well it's not surprising considering she’s the princess, but holy shit!’

As he watched them go back to fighting and bickering, Edward was silently waiting for school to end. He needed to reach Tier 1 quickly. He had no idea how many enemies he had, he was in the light while they were in the dark.

School proceeded as usual, Edward basically had an entourage of women that followed him to his different classes. The classes in this school were quite normal. It wasn’t surprising though, this was his first year in this school, and they would actually start teaching the special classes in his second year.

Edward learned the most in the history class though, The World of 3 Nations was divided into 3 nations. There was the Human Nation, the Orc Nation, and the Water Dweller Nation. All 3 of the nations were constantly fighting each other as they were in a deadlock with each other.

Although the situation was currently peaceful no one knew how long it would last, so there was always gunpowder in the air ready to be ignited at any time. Recently the other 2 forces were strangely quiet, putting the Human Nation on guard.

Leaving the school, Edward told the captain of the guards who were waiting for them to buy him a male black horse. Although the guard had a confused look on his face, he didn’t question it, he led them to their carriage, taking them back to their estate while going to complete Edward’s request.

Edward waited patiently while reading books in the library. He needed the horse to complete a ritual, the poor horse would have to die for his cause. The only problem was that he needed to go to an isolated area to do the ritual. He didn’t want anyone to see him doing the ritual, as being labeled as a heretic would cause many to be against him.

It only took a few hours before the captain of the guard brought Edward a male steed. Taking a fancy to the horse, Edward caressed its face. The horse was very obedient, allowing Edward to touch his head, it even licked his hand. This made Edward feel very guilty.

‘Sigh, I’m sorry.’

Erasing those dark thoughts, Edward looked at the captain of the guards.

“Tell my sister, I’m going to take a ride alone.”

“But Master, you know we can’t leave you alone. We’ll be heavily punished if anything happens to you.”

“I know Nicolas, but I wanna clear the thoughts in my head.”

“Can you please delay my sister, for a few hours I’ll be right back.”

“I don’t want to get you into trouble too.”

Nicolas the captain of the guards had a look of hesitation on his face. He watched Edward grow up from a baby to a teen, basically seeing him as a son. He didn’t want anything to happen to him but he also wanted to respect his wish.

‘If only the masters of the house were here.’

“Okay, I’ll delay her for 3 hours, but you must be back in 3 hours, or we’ll send a squad to look for you.”

“Thank you, Nicolas.”

Edward mounted the horse and rode it to a rural area. As he traveled further and further away from the kingdom, the area seemed to become less and less prosperous.

Now in an area isolated from human life, Edward took preparation for the ritual. He took out a knife from the bag that he was carrying. It was an enchanted knife, a dull knife would make the killing of the horse harder and would prolong its suffering, while an enchanted knife would be able to cut through rock like butter.

The trees swayed in a ghostly manner seemingly sensing the evil that was about to occur. The grass even looked a little darker as Edward gently rubbed the head of the horse. He raised the knife in the air and cleanly sliced.

The horse didn’t even feel pain as its head separated from its body. Blood gushed from the neck of the horse painting the grass a red color. The job was not done as he still needed to separate the limbs.

As Edward sliced off the limbs like a butcher, he felt a twinge of pain in his heart. He had never butchered an animal’s life like this before. He knew horses were intelligent and seeing how cruelly he took away its life he started to doubt if this was his true nature.

When he was done, Edward’s hands were colored by the blood of the horse. He looked demonic, far from his previous elegance.

Too far deep in this path, Edward continued on. He placed the body parts of the horse in a pattern. The pattern looked like the letter H. The Demon Lord he was going to contact was a very unique character.

Edward sat down as he clasped his hands in a prayer, and then he prayed.

“Oh the great, beautiful, and strongest Demon Lord. Please come down and bless your followers with your infinite wisdom and strength. Please descend, Lord Black Horse.”

The air came to a still silence, the body parts of the horse turned a red fire as an evil awakened. The red fires made a figure in the air. As a low cackling broke the stillness. A figure broke through the fire in the air, making its appearance known.

A black goat with prideful elegance strode towards Edward, its golden ornaments, and black pupils that looked like a plus sign stared condescendingly at him. This Lord Black Horse was actually a black goat. This was why he considered it a very unique character.
