"What do you mean by lord?, I'm not a demon"- he nervously said, he just wanted to deny it as long as he could.
"Well, our lord died, I could feel it, and before that it looks like you encountered him and transformed you, making you our new lord"- he said as if that was the most normal thing in the world to say.
"..."- Muichiro couldn't deny it, he knew something within him changed, but he didn't wanted to accept it either.
"Would you want a brief introduction to the demon life?"- the demon said with a hint of amusement, because the expresión Muichiro had was hilarious.
"First I would like to know your name, even if I would probably forget it anyway"- Muichiro replied back.
"My name is Neol, pleasure to be at your service, and now the fated question, are you hungry?"- he asked seriously, because every demon right after turning were dieing of hunger, and Muichiro looked normal, that was something to be praised.
"Kinda, I feel a little discomfort in my stomach, but nothing more"- Muichiro answered honestly, that was all he was feeling at the moment.
That answer kinda left the other demon with his mouth open, wondering if his new lord was like him.
"So you don't crave human flesh?"- Neol asked.
"I'm surrounded by them now, and I don't feel like hurting them so... I think I don't crave them"- Muichiro answered a little nochalant.
"That's a relief, that means you are just like me"- Neol softly said, he didn't believe there was another demon that not wanted to eat humans, but now his new lord was more human like, that made him feel a little better about himself because he thougth he wasn't normal.
He still could remember when he first turned, feeling a deep hunger towards something, but the smell of blood and humans disgusted him, till he found a little flower in the middle of the forest that got his atention, because it smelt edible for him...
After that, Neol went to find the little herb that he uses to eat, the only one that doesn't make him want to throw up. He came back with it some minutes later.
They went to a little cabin in the outskirts of the village and Neol prepared a pot for boiling water, he was going to make tea with the little flower.
While the tea was getting ready, Muichiro was looking around the house, it was welcoming despite that a demon lived there.
By the time the tea was ready, Muichiro started feeling a little drowsy, he couldn't understand why he felt that way, so he went to the nearest couch, and took a little nap.
When Neol came back with the tea ready, he found Muichiro fast asleep on the couch, he let him be, thinking that it might be his way of recovering energy and getting stronger.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
A week passed, and Muichiro finally woke up, he couldn't remember what was the last thing he did, and why he was laying in a couch, but sudently he remembered that he was a demon, and his mood got sour.
He still couldn't believe he became the thing he vowed to destroy, and worst, he became their boss, the new demon king.
But then, a sudden thougth came to his mind...
If he was the new demon king, what happened to the last one? Or more specifically... How did Muzan Kibutsuji died?
But that chain of thougths came to a stop when he heared the door open, it seemed as if his senses became sharper too, not only his strength.
He reacomodated himself so that he was sitting in the couch and not laying in it, then he turned his head to where he could hear steps coming from and found Neol heading his direction.
He tried so hard to remember the name of the demon in front of him, he could remember that he was the one that let him stay in the house, and that he meet him before he fell asleep, but he couldn't remember his name.
He decides that for now he would call him bored boy because of the expresion he seemed to always have, he reminded him of another person he couldn't quite recall.
"You finally woke up" -Neol said as soon as he was standing infront o Muichiro.
"I think, how much did I sleep?" -Muichiro asked, barely consealing his nerves about the new situation he found himself in.
"Like a week and half, the other demons that survived the change of king should be wraking havoc trying to find you, my lord, especially the uppermoons" -he replied, not really caring about the effect his words had on the kid that was his new lord.
Hearing the words that Neol just said, Muichiro grew pale, just thinking about what the demons could be doing only to find him... well, it isn't a pretty view of thoughts.
