Deep within the fiery depths of the Demon queendom, a group of demons gathered in the shadows, their eyes gleaming with suspicion and intrigue. They whispered among themselves, casting glances towards the borders of the Beastkin Queendom, where they noticed a peculiar absence of guards.
"I've never seen it like this before," murmured Rakthi, a tall and imposing demoness with crimson scales and piercing yellow eyes. "There's not a single guard in sight. Something must be amiss."
Her companions nodded in agreement, their fangs glinting in the dim light. Demons were known for their keen senses and astute instincts, always attuned to any shifts in the balance of power. The sudden vulnerability of the Beastkin Queendom's borders had caught their attention.
"Indeed," chimed in Zara, a demoness with sleek obsidian fur and flickering silver flames dancing along her tail. "The Beastkin's lack of vigilance is highly unusual. They are known for their caution and shrewdness. I fear they may be planning something against us."
The demons exchanged glances, their suspicions growing stronger by the moment. The Beastkin were formidable adversaries, possessing a deep connection with nature and the ability to shift into fearsome animal forms. The demons knew better than to underestimate their potential threat.
"We must report this to our leader, Mazoku Queen," declared Varni, a battle-hardened demoness with scars etched across her charcoal-coloured skin. "She must be made aware of these developments. If the Beastkins are plotting against us, we cannot afford to be caught off guard."
Nodding in agreement, all the demons set off on their mission, their claws clicking against the rocks and rough sand as they made their way to the throne room of their formidable ruler.
The Mazoku Queen, a regal figure with ebony wings and eyes that glowed with an otherworldly light, sat upon her obsidian throne, emanating an aura of power that sent shivers down the spines of those who approached her.
"Your Highness," Rakthi began, her voice reverberating through the chamber. "We bring grave tidings from the borders of the Beastkin Queendom. There is a noticeable absence of guards, which leads us to believe that they may be plotting against us."
"Since yesterday, we haven't seen any beastkin near the borders, and those who were supposed to be there also went back for some reason,"
The Mazoku Queen's eyes narrowed, her gaze piercing through the demons as if reading their very thoughts. She rose from her throne, her wings spreading wide, casting an imposing shadow over her subjects.
"Beastkin, plotting against us?" she hissed, her voice a symphony of menace. "They dare to underestimate our strength? Our future is bleak without the ability to procreate,"
She looked bothered by how other races don't even bother to find a solution for their problem. But she didn't know that only her races and a few other races were left out of the superior blessing called Nikol, which will come for them sooner or later.
"Prepare our assassin unit, we will cross the border without them knowing and assassinate the beastkin queen, Leona, once we did that they will lose the pillar that they are relying on and we will attack when their queendom is in chaos," Her plan was flawless at least in her eyes, but on her throne was a man sitting with his legs tapping on the floor, listening to their conversation with interest.
"Queen! What do we do after we will all the beastkin? By killing all of them can we really achieve what we long for?" Rakthi asked with her eyes not daring to meet their queen's eyes, but everyone saw how Mazoku Queen's expression changed when she asked that question.
"..."
"What else are we supposed to do? Our shitty goddess completely forgot us, and now that fairy also disappeared somewhere, what am I supposed to do? Tell me. Should I kill myself? I don't want this war either, but if we don't create more cursed puppets, our race, and our legacy will disappear from this world," She then looked at all the statues of her ancestors, which looked like they were built for worshipping, as they had an aura of regality to them.
"Forgive me, my queen, for the stupid question," Rakthi quickly apologised realising how stupid she was to ask a question, that is so insensitive.
"Ohhh~ it's fine, not a big deal," Rakthi sighed hearing the answer, but then only she realised the voice came not from their queen rather standing in front of them was a strange woman and their mortal enemy, Leona.
"Who are you? identify yourself," Disturbed by the fact that someone else except their queen is sitting on the scared throne, everyone quickly took their weapons and a group of demonesses of different kinds including vampires, succubuses and many other types came inside with their eyes focusing on the strange person in front of them.
As the demonesses surrounded Nikol, their weapons at the ready, Nikol raised their hands in a placating gesture. Their eyes shimmered with an otherworldly light and angered looks and fearful smiles played on their lips.
"Please, there's no need for hostility," Nikol spoke softly, their voice carrying a soothing tone. "I mean you no harm. I am Nikol, a being who seeks to bring understanding and unity among different realms."
The demonesses exchanged wary glances but held their ground, their gazes fixed on Nikol. Rakthi, still on guard, cautiously spoke up, "What business do you have here? How did you enter our domain? And who gave you authority to sit on our precious throne?"
Nikol's smile widened, their expression calm and serene. "I come with a message, a message of hope. I understand the frustrations and fears that plague your hearts. But I believe there is another way, a path that doesn't involve further bloodshed and suffering."
Rakthi's grip on her weapon tightened, but she couldn't help feeling a flicker of curiosity. "What do you mean? Our goddess has abandoned us, and our purpose seems lost. What alternative could there be?"
The queen was looking at him with an angered look, because she knew this was his bullshitting, and he is just here to kill her and erase their race.
'So this is what beastkin's are upto'
She thought without even knowing the context.
Nikol gestured toward the statues of the demonesses' ancestors, their regal presence seemingly amplified in the dimly lit chamber. "Your legacy, your race, it is not destined to disappear. Your power lies within your own hands, not in the whims of a goddess or the creation of cursed puppets."
Confusion crept over the demonesses' faces as they tried to make sense of Nikol's words. Leona, who had been silently observing the exchange, stepped forward. "You speak in riddles. Explain yourself, My lord."
"..."
"My lord! You say?" Mazoku Queen pushed everyone and decided to face them with her own power because she felt absurd when Leona, the strongest queen she knew that could rival her, call my lord to another person without any hesitation.
Nikol's eyes gleamed with intensity as they began to pace before the throne. "Demons! I have brought the offer, you shall not proceed with these heinous cursed magics and create vile puppets, and in exchange for that, I will revive your race, for such, I have the power to do that,"
Everyone went silent, as soon as Nikol muttered those words because even for them it was the most absurd thing they heard in a while.
"Leona, what are you planning? We won't fall into your trap," Mazoku Queen shouted but Leona as calm as ever removed her royal dress just enough for her to reveal her belly, so they will understand what they were talking about.
As soon as they saw the sign of pregnancy and the bloated belly of Leona, everyone gasped because it was the thing demon wished for, it is the thing demon fought for and in front of them were the signs of it.
"Impossible!" Everyone started chatting among themselves, while Leona covered her belly and looked at the demon queen with a sharp look.
"Do you want to keep your useless pride and destroy everything or just accept this and make everything right?" It was a simple but effective question.
As the demonesses watched the scene unfold, a flicker of hope ignited within their hearts, and their determination rekindled. They began to consider the possibilities that lay ahead, ready to embrace a new path and bring about change.
"Who is that? We can't-" She couldn't even finish her question, as Nikol suddenly gave her the answer before she could even ask the question.
"I am Nikol, and my identity is that of an immortal being, I'm the one and only son of the goddess that abandoned all of you and I'm here to make things right," Hearing his words, Leona looked at him with a sad look remembering about the pain they had to go through in the past.
"Demon queen, take your decision wisely, I'm not asking any of you to respect me or love me, all of you can hate me if you want, but let me mate with all of you, that is my duty and I will do that, If you refuse, demons will perish in the future and other races would survive,"
Leona waited for the demon queen's answer, but then she suddenly attacked Nikol without even any warning.
"I still don't believe you, if you're really an immortal being just like you said, then you can beat me, right? So do it, I won't listen to your words until then,"
Nikol couldn't help but sigh hearing this woman's words.
'Why does everyone have to be aggressive when I first meet with them'
He thought and looked at Mazoku Queen with a non-aggressive look.
"Easy work!"
