On a sunny grassland, Reina was wearing white clothes and chasing after a rabbit wearing a suit and a pocket watch.
"My lunch! Don't run ~ "Reina said while drooling.
Suddenly, the rabbit stopped, turned around, and actually spoke: "Hey, hey ~ Get up, what time is it now?"
"Eh?" Linnai was puzzled for a moment, wondering where she had heard this voice before.
Demon King Richard looked at the sleeping girl who was drooling on the bed, and couldn't help but rub his forehead.
Reina slowly opened her eyes, yawned, and said in a daze: "Mr. Rabbit?"
Suddenly, she saw Demon King Richard standing in front of the bed, waking her up.
"Hey! Sir Hero!! Sorry, I woke up late! I'll prepare breakfast for you now! "
Saying this, she jumped off the bed and ran into the living room, discovering that a sumptuous breakfast had already been prepared on the table.
"Sir Hero?" Reina turned her head, and Demon King Richard saw three parts surprise, two parts unease, and five parts anticipation from her expression.
"You woke up too late, so I made breakfast myself. It's all cheap stuff I bought with the leftover money from yesterday." Demon King looked away, then pretended to not care and said: "These are my leftovers, hurry up and finish them, class is starting today."
"Class?" Reina was confused.
Demon King's forehead bulged with veins as he said loudly: "Didn't you want to defeat the Demon King!? From today onwards, I'll teach you how to defeat the Demon King! Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and eat. "
"Yes!"
Lena gratefully sat down on a stool. She saw a few slices of bread, two medium-rare eggs, some freshly washed vegetables, and some white salad dressing on the table.
She squeezed some salad dressing on the vegetables, then put the fried egg and vegetables between the two pieces of bread. Just as she was about to take a bite, Demon King suddenly shouted: "Wait!"
"Huh?"
Reina looked at him in confusion, only to see the Demon King's face turn green. He asked, "You haven't brushed your teeth yet, right …?"
"Yes!"
"Quick! Go! Shua! Fang! "
…
Reina followed the Demon King into the forest.
"Lord Hero, what are you going to teach me today?" Reina asked happily.
Demon King Richard said expressionlessly, "Shut up and follow me."
"Yes!"
Reina smiled and nodded.
However, this conversation had been repeated more than 20 times. They had long left the area where humans lived and came to the primitive forest.
It was terrifyingly quiet here. Sunlight couldn't penetrate the dense foliage, so the forest was very cool.
Crack ~
Reina, who was following the Demon King Richard, stepped on a branch on the ground. She looked down and suddenly saw a pair of eyes. There was a snake in the pile of dead leaves on the ground! Its color blended in with the dead leaves. If it weren't for the sound of the branches breaking, Reina wouldn't have noticed it at all.
"Squeak!"
Little Lina was so scared that she was like a kitten with its fur standing on end. She immediately pounced on Richard.
However, Richard stopped in his tracks.
"Lord Hero! Snake! "
Reina pointed at the snake on the ground with a terrified expression.
Richard turned around. He still had an expressionless look. He bent down and said to Reina, "Listen carefully. I'll only teach you once. Whether you can learn it or not depends on you."
"Yes!"
Although she didn't understand the situation, Reina still nodded.
"The essence of Flame Magic is that the user can refine the magic in the body and transform it into flames. As we all know, matter is divided into three forms, gaseous, solid, and liquid. However, flames don't belong to these three forms. It's a form of energy. Watch carefully."
After saying that, Richard stretched out his hand with his palm facing the sky. A high concentration of blue magic emerged from his palm and suddenly formed a blazing flame.
"Oh!"
Reina showed a surprised expression. She felt that this was too magical. As for whether she understood or not, no one knew.
The Demon King stood up straight and looked down at her. For some reason, the Demon King's eyes gave Reina a sense of alienation. He was clearly in front of her, but she felt as if he was thousands of miles away.
He said coldly, "If you want to defeat the Demon King, you have to face countless terrifying monsters and all kinds of harsh environments. This is your first lesson, and perhaps your last. Try to survive in this forest."
After saying that, the Demon King's hand flashed with a cold light. A small knife flew out and stabbed into the tree root in front of Reina's feet.
Reina still didn't understand the situation. The Demon King was about to turn around and leave, but he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and said to her, "By the way, I cast a spell on your hand. If you want to give up, just shout to your hand 'I give up on defeating the Demon King'. I'll come back to pick you up."
"Lord Hero? Don't leave me behind. "
Reina was stunned for a few seconds before she suddenly recovered. She picked up the knife on the ground and chased after the Demon King, Richard's back. The strange thing was that Richard walked leisurely as if he was taking a stroll. However, the madly running Reina couldn't catch up to him. Soon, his back disappeared into the endless shadows of the trees.
"Lord Hero?"
The girl stood alone in the forest. Suddenly, a heavy feeling of loneliness pressed down on her heart. Soon, this feeling of loneliness evolved into fear.
"Lord Hero! Where are you? "
She shouted at the forest, but there wasn't even an echo. Not only light, but even sound was swallowed up by the forest.
What should I do ~
Reina was a little anxious. Suddenly, there was a rustling sound behind her, as if something was passing by. She hurriedly turned around and tightly held the knife with both hands.
However, there was nothing behind her.
"Lord Hero?"
Reina called out tentatively. She thought that perhaps Lord Hero was deliberately doing this to tease her. In a moment, he would come out and give her a fright. Then, he would pat her head and preach to her.
Reality proved that her guess was wrong. The Demon King, Richard, was serious. She was left alone in this primitive forest.
She didn't know what to do. Everything looked the same. Apart from trees, there were trees. The forest robbed her of her sense of direction.
"Lord Hero!"
She walked in the forest in fear and trepidation, constantly calling out the name that gave her hope.
The forest darkened much faster than outside. Reina didn't know how long she had been walking. She only knew that her stomach was about to collapse from hunger.
She found a small cave formed by intertwining withered roots and vines. She curled up in a corner and put her chin on her knees, staring at her hands.
"Flame Magic!"
She tried to imitate the Demon King's movements and use the magic that the Demon King had taught her.
However, nothing happened in Reina's hands. She didn't know how many times she had failed.
It was in fear and darkness that she spent her first night in the primeval forest.
