"Hello there," Roy greeted Mimori Akatsuki with a smile.

Mimori was a woman with a youthful face and a voluptuous figure. Despite being thirty, she still looked like a teenager—incredibly attractive. And she sometimes acted like one, too.

She possessed both the allure of a mature woman and the innocence of a young girl.

"H-Hello," Mimori stammered, flustered by his presence. Although she was annoyed that her daughter had formed a servant contract, there was nothing she could do now. She invited them inside.

Kojou Akatsuki was watching TV in the living room.

"Yo, Kojou!" Roy greeted him casually. Although they were classmates, they rarely interacted.

"You're classmates?" Mimori asked, looking at them with surprise.

"That's right," Nagisa confirmed.

Kojou gave a noncommittal greeting, his eyes narrowed in suspicion. He had heard rumors of Roy's Demon Lord identity from his friend, Motoki Yaze.

They chatted for a while.

"Roy, who…are you?" Mimori finally asked the question that had been on her mind.

Roy chuckled. "The Demon Lord. You can also think of me as a God."

"Demon Lord? God?" Mimori was stunned. She couldn't comprehend what he meant.

She made a mental note to investigate his identity later.

She didn't press the matter further.

After dinner, Nagisa stayed with her family, and Roy returned home alone.

Later that evening, after asking her friends about Roy, Mimori was shocked to learn that he was indeed a Demon Lord—a being even more powerful than a True Ancestor.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Roy received a call from Liana.

"Liana, is something the matter?" Roy asked, stifling a yawn, one hand holding the phone while the other was…busy with Yukari Endou, who was lying in his arms, pretending to be asleep.

"Master, the Second Primogenitor, Aswad-Guul Aziz, and the Third Primogenitor, Giada Kukulcan, have arrived on Itogami Island. They request an audience with you," Liana reported respectfully.

"Oh? They came so quickly? Arrange for them to come to the castle."

"Yes, Master!"

<><><><><>

After hanging up, Roy looked at Yukari, who was squirming in his arms, and decided to—punish her.

By the time he emerged from his room, it was almost noon.

The two Primogenitors had been waiting in the castle's main hall.

Roy's entrance drew everyone's attention.

The Second Primogenitor, Aswad-Guul Aziz, was a female vampire with purple hair and red eyes. She had a cold and aloof demeanor.

The Third Primogenitor, Giada Kukulcan, had a green hair and deep green eyes. It was said that she could change her appearance at will.

She possessed both vampire and beastman abilities.

The lineage of the "Chaos Bride" was known as the T-Type—a matriarchal bloodline of female vampires capable of transforming their familiars into living weapons.

Roy was more interested in the Third Primogenitor.

While he observed them, they were also observing him.

They couldn't sense any magic power from him. He seemed like an average human, albeit an incredibly handsome one.

This was precisely what made them apprehensive.

With their power, no one could hide their strength from them.

Yet, they couldn't detect a single trace of magic from Roy.

This meant that he was far more powerful than they were.

They had suspected it before, but now they were certain: This Demon Lord was the one who had killed the First Primogenitor.

"Demon Lord-sama, we've come to apologize. We failed to bring the Fourth Primogenitor candidate bodies to the Feast of Flames," Aswad-Guul Aziz spoke first.

"Indeed, Demon Lord-sama. We've come to offer our sincerest apologies," Giada Kukulcan added, batting her eyelashes at Roy.

Behind her stood ten beautiful young girls.

It seemed Giada had done her research.

Knowing his fondness for beautiful girls, she had brought them as…gifts.

Unlike the Second Primogenitor, who had many descendants—

The Third Primogenitor, being a T-Type vampire, had no male vampires in her lineage.

She had a large collection of beautiful girls, and she had brought some of them as a peace offering.

<><><><><>

Roy looked at the girls behind Giada and sighed inwardly.

Had his true nature been exposed? They were using a "Honey Trap" on him.

While their intentions were good, their plan was likely to fail.

"Since you've come to apologize, I'll forgive you," Roy said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

The two Primogenitors were overjoyed. It seemed they had made the right choice.

But Roy's next words made their faces fall.

"But I should warn you: In a few days, I'm going to transform all Demonkind in this world into humans. Go back and prepare yourselves."

The two Primogenitors were stunned.

Turn all Demonkind into humans?

Was such a thing even possible?

If he could do that, it would change the world forever.

They exchanged terrified glances.

As immortal vampires, they had lived for centuries, but the longer they lived, the more they feared death.

If they became human, they would be vulnerable to aging, disease, and even betrayal from their subordinates.

After centuries of oppression, some of their subordinates undoubtedly harbored ambitions of their own.

The two Primogenitors' faces paled.

"Demon Lord-sama, please spare us!" They both knelt, their heads bowed.

To them, transforming all Demonkind into humans was a death sentence.

Without their Primogenitor powers, they would be lambs to the slaughter.

Seeing their Primogenitors kneel, their servants and relatives also knelt themselves.

Behind Aswad, a boy with black hair, brown skin, and golden eyes—around twelve or thirteen years old—watched with a calculating glint in his eyes.

He was Aswad's ninth son, Iblisveil Aziz.

He was known for his ruthlessness and arrogance, having once devoured his own sister for the sake of a familiar.

It was unclear what schemes he was plotting now.

Roy smirked, looking at the two kneeling Primogenitors.

"If you don't want to become human, you can become my servants."

Two [Evil Pieces] materialized before them.

Aswad and Giada looked at the pieces, then understood. He was offering them a chance to become his servants.

Aswad's face was a mask of conflict. As a Primogenitor who had ruled for centuries, how could she become someone else's subordinate?

It was unacceptable to her pride.

But refusing meant becoming human, facing an unknown and likely unpleasant death.

Giada Kukulcan, however, didn't hesitate. Becoming a servant was better than dying. She wasn't ready to give up her immortality.

"I accept!" She took the Evil Piece without a second thought.

The Devil transformation ritual began.

Aswad's internal struggle intensified.

Roy shrugged. He didn't care whether she accepted or not.

Just as he was about to retract the Evil Piece, Aswad grabbed it.

"Demon Lord-sama, I accept," she said, finally making her decision.

Roy smirked.

Soon, both transformations were complete. While now Devils, they retained their vampire powers.

And they were even stronger than before, having reached the Transcendent-level.

Roy waved his hand, dismissing them.

He instructed them to gather their belongings and prepare to leave this world with him.

The two Primogenitors returned to their respective territories to make arrangements.

With everyone gone, Roy, feeling bored, decided to go back to bed.

But he encountered Kanon.

"Kanon, where are you going so early?" he asked, curious.

"Onii-chan, I'm going to see the cats. Would you like to come?" Kanon smiled sweetly.

Roy, having nothing else to do, readily agreed.

"Of course!"

He took the bag of cat food from her and led her away, his hand clasped around hers.

A flash of light from the teleportation circle, and they vanished from the castle.

<><><><><>

They reappeared at the abandoned church, which Roy had transformed into a cat paradise with his magic.

Protected by a barrier, no one had discovered this hidden sanctuary.

Meow, meow, meow!

The cats, sensing a familiar presence, rushed out to greet them.

"Don't worry, everyone. I brought food," Kanon said, crouching down and opening the bag of cat food. The cats eagerly gathered around her.
