“While I’m sure you already know some details about all of the demon clans, I also know the humans aren’t aware of everything, so I’ll start from the basics,” Grandpa says, and I nod in agreement. That would be for the best. “Obviously you already know about blood lycans, so the only thing I’ll say there is the one thing I don’t think you know,” he says as Tar begins to float down onto my head, only to pause when the Demon King’s eyes narrow on him before he floats up again. “It is…-

“Please “Now, your fae tells me that you’ve already realized by now that every other demon here aside from blood lycans can easily see your level, so I don’t have to mention that anymore,” Grandpa says, starting with the next part of the lesson without awknowledging my shout. But I don’t do anything in response to that, simply narrowing my eyes since he seems to take amusement in my usual responses. “Aww, don’t be like that! I’ll warn you the next time I plan to do it, okay?” I blink…

The next dusk has me immediately being pull out of bed and told to get ready for my outing with the Demon King, very much confusing me until Tar reminds me what happened last night. At which point I just start going through the motions, taking a bath in that lovely bath chamber that has reminded me of how much I’ve always loved baths, and finally changing into a comfortable shirt and shorts and activating my armor. Then I scowl at my royal guards on the way to the front gate due to them outing me to the…

I try very hard to hold back a yawn as Grandpa continues shouting in front of me, “-and were you really going to fight a level 300 on your own? Without even That surprises me for a moment, enough so that I accidentally let out the yawn I was holding back, making Grandpa’s eyes narrow. Oops. “There are a few things about demon society that you don’t seem to realize, so I think I’ll go through them with you tomorrow night,” Grandpa says, a faint grin stretching across his face as I feel…

“Let me get this straight,” Leonidas states, his voice slowly echoing through the grand hall and out the open balconies of the room. “Scarlet went out to hunt but not only did she only hunt things that were already above her magic level, but she hunted the damned things near extinction on that island in a single night. She also forced you into going along with her level cap on what demons she could fight, and you didn’t even think to get into contact with me about this before her hunt…

“Yes, Your Highness?” the guard appears in an instant as I continue sitting on the tree stump, letting my mana regenerate. Which it’s doing at a pretty fast pace thanks to my Blood Regeneration skill. “I would like to set a minimum level of demon that you would be allowed to protect me if I need it in the fight,” I state, being as blunt as possible, surprising her only a little bit. Although my next words have a much bigger affect. “The lowest level demon you can help me against is level…

Vincent was beyond happy when His Majesty notified him of his appointment as the Princess’s royal guard. Because there are very few things the guard of the most powerful being in the universe can really do besides keep watch over him and look cool while doing it. But now he can actually perform his duties by keeping watch over the young Princess. At first he was a little worried that the human blood she has may have tainted her strength, made her weaker and therefore more in need of protection. But…

As I walk across the bridge, I pay attention to all the sounds coming from the little forest situated atop the island I’m heading to. And there are a lot of sounds there. Almost all of them being from battle between demons of all kinds. But I don’t see any damage to the island itself, so I assume Leonidas probably enchanted it to be able to either take a lot more damage than regular ground, to restore itself with blood, or maybe even both. Either way, it’s a really nice hunting ground by the sound…

Surprisingly, or I guess unsurprisingly considering what I know about blood lycans and hunts, Leonidas lets me leave the castle as long as I have my bodyguards. So that’s the very first thing I do, after eating breakfast that is. The first thought that comes to mind after leaving the palace though is that the city further down on the floating island is rather scarce of people judging by the sounds I hear coming from it. But then again, it’s supposedly a city meant just for blood lycans, with no one…

The sun begins to come up outside, bringing my attention to the window, which is leaking sunlight through the closed curtains, marking the beginning of the day as I hear quite the number of people going to sleep. Something I’m going to find very difficult to get used to, since Tartarus is overall a nocturnal world. The days here are just as long as the nights are on Earth. Actually, they’re probably shorter in general. Just about six or seven hours each day. A lot of the demons don’t bother going to…
