Heroines, something wrong with them?

Chapter 36: Demon meets Lucas

Lucas didn’t find Emma and Emmy inside their house. He had already imagined that something worse had happened to them. In disappointment, he was coming out when he spotted a grayish-white train.


Train here?


He immediately hid behind the wall. How was a train moving on the street? He thought before he saw the tiers.


First time he had seen a train like this.


Was it a military train?


Soon he caught a glimpse of who came out of the train


Why were they here?


It was the same two people who killed him.


Then he saw two girls behind them. Emma, Emmy?!


No! no! no! It can’t be..Why! why! Why were they with him?!..


His mind went into chaos.


He felt a weird aching feeling in his chest so much that it almost started hurting physically...


With one hand, he clenched the skin of his heart-side chest through thick clothes, and in the other hand he tightened the hold on his sword.


Loid’s face played in his mind. Then the scene when Lalica kissed him.


Blood started dripping from the hand he was holding a sword, drop by drop; blood fell on the snow.


He was targeting me!.


He only came up with this; other than that, it’s not make any sense.


He was deliberately doing this!.


He knew me!.


He was like me!, a regressor transmigrator or whatever; he knew me from the future or past, that’s why he was doing this to me. He was my enemy!.. How dare he?!. Shady, such a despicable person. I will kill him!!!...


He took a step with the urge to kill him right now, right here.


But the next moment, his surroundings changed...


In front of him stood at least a seven-foot-tall humanoid figure with a black horn in the center of his forehead carved toward the sky.


His skin color was red, his eyes were pink, long orange hair and a dense, muscular body; he looked like an abomination.


Horrified. Lucas stepped back.


What was more threatening than this abomination was smiling, showing its teeth like a shark.


"Who are you?.. What are you?’’ Lucas muttered, his voice breaking.


" Ha, that’s surprising; you know demon language. It looks like everyone here speaks demon language," the red figure said in his heavy voice.


"What demon language?" Lucas asked after calming down, hiding fear deep inside him.


"That’s you speaking?"


"No shit, I’m not"


"Such a foul mouth you have, human."


"What do you want?" Lucas didn’t dare to attack him; in the blink of an eye, he changed his surroundings. It was clear he was no match for this thing.


If the red abomination standing in front of him wanted to kill him, then he would be dead by now.


No saving here. Now he didn’t even have a system. He had to be careful not to prove this thing.


"Well, don’t be afraid, human. I’m just curious why one body had two souls. I just came here to explore this land and came to see such an absurd thing; weirdly, it wasn’t because of any demon technique I know. Tell me how you possessed this body without damaging the other soul. And you guys were merging. Don’t you have a problem with that?"


"What?! How?" Lucas ’ eyes were widened; his face turned pale; he was shaken to the core. This guy saw through his secret as if it was nothing.


But what, merging souls with him, no! My soul merging with him... no, it can’t be.. I don’t want that!.


Seeing his expression, the red figure raised his orange brows.


"Oh, I see you weren’t aware of it. Were you a demon before?’’


"I don’t remember anything, just woke up in this body,’’ Lucas said after calming himself.


"Interesting. You don’t want to merge with that soul and lose yourself, right?’’


Lucas just nodded; he wasn’t sure what this demon was plotting and want from him.


When his system turned him into a demon, he would have guessed demons existed in this world. Was that time he also looked this absurd? Then it was good he died- no, he was sure he didn’t look like this abomination. Even though his head was crushed, he saw his dead body; it was a handsome, lean physique. Lust demon, he even loved the name.


Why did I die before exploring my powers?


"I can destroy another soul without harming you ’’


Lucas frowned.


"Why do you help me? What do you want in return"


"Smart, want to become my demon general. Swear to serve me, and I would help you and give you power."


"Why... do I trust you"


"Hahahah, why would I try to fool a weakling like you?"


Lucus just looked at the demon, who laughed, showing his harp teeth.


But he wasn’t wrong; if he wanted to kill him, he would have already done it.


It’s not like I could do anything. I need strength, yeah, it’d be better, even if Luck decides to help me kill that guy...


"Alright, I agree, just tell me what I had to do after becoming your general.’’


"Well, you can’t directly become general; you have to achieve it step by step or defeat the other demons on the line, which I know won’t be difficult for you.’’


Lucas thought for a moment and agreed.


He didn’t care even if this was some kind of a plot; first, he didn’t want to offend the figure in front of him by denying his request. Second, he wanted immediate strength to kill that guy and about serving this demon.


ha! What a joke. I would serve this thing’s head when I was strong enough,


"Alright, I would serve you if you did what you said."


"Good choice, human..."


The demon raised his hand; his clawy finger glowed in a purple light; he touched his forehead.


Lucas felt dizzy for a second, then he became normal.


Then the demon gave him a red pill. Lucas hesitated; in the end, he took it. Because of the pill, he was alive right now, so the pill felt like a lucky charm to him; the pill felt less threatening.


The demon looked at the human standing in front of him. And thought only one thing.


Fool!.


How could such a fool possess such a rare physique? Were they even aware of it?
