Chapter 1
Revival
“I died again.” I said to myself while floating in a dark abyss. “Damn it! I was should of just finish him instantly.” Soon my head was full of what if’s and should of’s. “Oh well” I let out a deep sigh to dispel all the irritation and regret that filled my mind. “I should just be happy that I manage to kill him, even though he technically killed himself.”
He actually thought he could permanently killed an immortal being like me. Just the thought of how hilariously naive he was put me in a good mood. But I still have to give him credit was actually scared for a moment back there. It was stupid of me to fall for such a trick.
“Oh well, enough of the past it time for me go back.” I let out another deep sigh and started gathering my magic so I could recreate my body. But for some reason I couldn’t gather any strength at all, and fact I was steadily losing strength.
Did that attack actually affect me? “No, impossible.” I quickly denied it even though it was obvious that it actually did. My strength was rapidly faded away. Unable to do anything I felled into complete panic until something caught my eye.
A ball of light gently fell into the abyss, once it hit the bottom where I was, it transform into the beautiful elf goddess, Athena.
“Athena, did you come here to laugh at my defeat?” That’s the only reason why I could see her coming here, all the times I threaten her and the other entities, this must be her way getting back at me.
“I never wanted this to happen to you.” She had the same sad expression on her face since last time I saw her. “Why couldn’t you just leave that place in peace? The mortals didn’t anything to you.”
“Isn’t it obvious? It’s because I’m the Demon King! Isn’t this what I’m supposed to do?!”
Athena simply stare at me without saying anything else, I was getting annoyed with the pity look she kept giving me. “It didn’t have to end like this you know.” Turning her back to me, she started walking away. I watch her as my vision kept faded in and out. “I hope you can at least find some peace in death.”
“Death?” I weakly chuckle at those words. “This isn’t the end Athena, I promise I will come back.”

Waking up, I found myself in a room where the sunlight brightly beam into it. Unable to handle the light, I cover my eyes until I could tolerate it. Finally getting use to it I open them again. The very first thing to catch my attention was my hands themselves. They were small chubby for some reason. I kept opening and closing them making sure they were mine.
“Yep these are mines.” Listening to my own voice even it sounded different, it was high pitch and sounded like… a baby. Finally taking a look at my surrounding, I was on a bed surrounded by bars and there were a few toys lounging around it. Well that pretty much sums it up, I’ve taking the form of a small child. I’m assuming it some after effect from that spell the hero hit me with, but it doesn’t explain why I’m in a crib.
“Anna, you awake?” The nearby voice knock me out of my thoughts. Not knowing if it’s was an enemy I tried to get up and prepare myself. But my weak legs gives out, and I fall down on my butt.
“So you are awake.” A human male with short dark brown hair came into the room. Wearing a gentle smile on his face, the man loom over the crib. Usually most people would be afraid of a giant staring down at them, but somehow I knew he wasn’t a threat to me.
“I bet you feel coop up in there.” Extending his hand into the crib, he gently pick me up. Bringing me up to his eye level his smile widen. “Now, let’s go find mommy.”
Well I guess this explains why I was in the crib. These humans must’ve pick me up somewhere just after l recreated my body and adopted me. I’ll just have to play along until my strength comes back me.
“There she is!” The man said an excited way. He pointed to a violet red headed woman in a white apron who look like she was busy chopping something up. Turning around to face us she also had a gentle smile, which again, somehow put me at ease. Walking towards us she gently took me out the man hand.
“How my cute little angel doing?” She said while shaking me in playful way.

“….” I didn’t said anything. I refuse to lower myself to their standards. The woman slightly cock her head in confusion while holding me, I guess because of how quiet I am. But what would you expect from a baby you pick up off the road, or wherever you found me.
“You didn’t do anything to her did you?” The Woman said.
“No, she was like this when I got her.”
“Hmmm.” The woman inspected me like I was a toy missing a few pieces. “I get it, you’re hungry right?
How did you even reach that conclusion? Taking me to a cabinet, she grab jar of what look like green bile. What the hell is that?! Was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw that green sludge. Grabbing a spoon she dug into the green disgusting bile. Does she except me to eat that?
“Ok, open wide!” Yup she does. She brought the spoonful of sludge to my slowly. I turn my head to refuse resulting in some of it getting on my cheeks. “C’mon Anna, if you don’t eat you won’t grow big and strong like me or daddy.” Well she was right about that in my current state ignoring meals will just weaken me even more. And even though the food looks poisonous I doubt anyone of them want to hurt me. Dipping the spoon in the sludge, she brings the food close to mouth again. This time I open my mouth to accept it. Once it hit my tongue I instantly wanted to spit it out, it tasted like vomit. It took a lot of effort but I manage to shallow it. After successfully eaten a spoonful of the sludge the man started clap like I just won a race or something. “Good girl.” Smiling at me, she dug back into the green bile “Now get ready for a second helping!”
After that horrendous breakfast, the couple brought me to what appears to be a living room. They put me down on a rug that was between the couch and the fireplace. They also threw some toys on the rug with me. I guess they want me to play with the toys. I took a look at the couple they sat down on the couch and smile at me. Enjoy this while you can, once I get my strength my back you guys will be the first I take out. But since I can’t do anything right now I’ll keep pretending to be your son.
I crawl through the pile of toys to find something that can at least mildly entertain me, until I ran a cross a small mirror. I remember the woman calling me a “cute angel”. She must be blind or just lied to me, because even though I’m baby size I still should resemble a monster. Looking into the mirror I nearly drop it, because the person looking back at me wasn’t me, or should I say didn’t resemble me at all. Brown hair, green eyes with chubby cheeks, this wasn’t my body at all it was a human body. I look back at the couple and notice some resemblance the brown hair on my head definitely came from the dad, and the green eyes came from the mother, which means they didn’t find me on the street this is actually their child. But why the hell am I in a human body? I kept asking these question knowing there were no answer for them until an urge hit me out of nowhere. I had to pee. Dropping the mirror I crawl around desperately trying to find the bathroom, until the big guy stop me.
“Whoa, whoa where are you going?” Blocking my path the man pick me up. Let go of me! I fiercely shook my body hoping he’ll let go of me. My movement stop once I felt my diaper got damp. “Oh oh” The man notice my wet diaper. “Looks like someone needs a changes of diaper.”
To be embarrassed like this, what did I do to deserve this…don’t answer that. Getting killed, becoming a baby and finding out I’m inside another person body, yeah, today was full of surprises. At this point you think nothing else can catch off guard but nope there was one more surprise waiting for me, and this one was probably the biggest one yet.
“Ok, let’s get that diaper off.” The man said.
“!!!” I unintentionally gasp There was nothing down there, well there is something but not what I was expecting. And truth, this shouldn’t of surprise me, all the times they called me “she” and the name they game me “Anna,” but I was being stubborn and refuse to accept it. Not only was I in a human body, but I was in a female one.
