Prologue
Blood poured freely from the many wounds the demon lord had inflicted on Rioku's limp body. Rioku was one of the strongest demons in the world and the spirit world, but that had not been enough.
He raised his bloody hand, concentrating all the energy he had left on his target, Zelzen. Zelzen gaped, unable to protect himself any longer, as Rioku fired the last of his energy into one big spirit ball. Zelzen was completely disintegrated.
Rioku had been provoked to fight by a threat not to be taken lightly. Zelzen had threatened to take the life of Rioku's younger sister, who he had protected with all his strength. Sej was his responsibility. His mother and father had asked him to take care of her while they took care of her identical twin and his younger brother. Rioku had fought. Rioku had won.
Sej came running up to him with the speed only a demon could have. "RIOKU!" she screamed. Sej was young by demon standards, only a 100 years old.
"Sej...I-have-to-tell-you-something..." he panted.
"Rioku, I'll get help...Rioku..." she started to go but Rioku caught her hand.
"It's too late! Sej, listen..." his voice dropped to a whisper. "You have a twin brother, Sej...you were separated at birth, an our mother and father entrusted me to protect you."
"Rioku, you're talking nonsense. I'll get you inside..."
"No, I'm not...please, Sej, stay safe, even though that's hard for you to do...one day...find your brother... it's up to you, Sej, you will be stronger than I ever was..." The words died on his lips, along with his life. Sej felt his energy go out, and felt a sense of aloneness she had never felt before...
