Panic? Of course! How could I not panic when I saw the hands that made those delicious cakes melt?!

To imagine I can't feel that taste anymore... I just can't! I don't accept! I want to cry! Someone please!! What should I do?!!

I, who was panicking at first, gasped when I felt something thrown against my forehead. I looked down at my feet and found a crumpled paper. I looked at Alastor who I thought was the culprit.

...seriously? Where did you even get the paper from?

he sighed. "Don't panic, demons have very good and fast regeneration." He showed his hand which looked fine, like nothing had ever happened before.

Sigh... you startled me... luckily what I imagined didn't happen. But...

"Even so that doesn't change the fact that you were injured... doesn't it hurt?" I looked at him worriedly.

He looked at me from head to toe.

Uh... why? What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me? I'm sure I'm not wearing pajamas.

He sighed, glanced at my slightly open bedroom door, then looked at me. "If you know it's bad for me then you better remove the damn pin."

He pointed at a blue pin that had been attached to my collar for some time.

Uh... isn't this the pin Damarius gave me? Since when did I put this on me?

I took it off and threw the pin on the bed. "So? What's the news?"

Without answering my question he suddenly lifted me bridal style, making me gape.

"What are you doing?!" I tried to get out of his arms.

"Shut your mouth and stay still if you don't want to fall." He threatened.

You damn devil! If you weren't the demon prince I would have broken your neck!

Wait... what do you mean by fall..?

"Don't tell me you-"

Before I finished my sentence, he spread out his huge wings and flapped them, sending us flying high. I wrapped my arms around his neck reflexively and closed my eyes.

Ugh... why did you have to use your wings...

"Coward. Open your eyes and look ahead." Alastor's words made me open my eyes and stare at him in annoyance.

Where is your playboy nature? Now you're more annoying than when you put on a fake smile you know?

"You should have warned me before flying! I almost had a heart attack! If I die young you must be responsible!" I grumbled in annoyance, but still looking ahead as he told.

Wow... Beautiful! The sky is currently orange with tinges of yellow and red. And you can actually see the moon glowing, even though the sun had not set completely

I touched the clouds that were above me. It turned out that I could hold the cloud, and the texture felt like cotton. Very soft!

Ok, this is illogical, but who cares? I entered the game also illogical.

"Nice, isn't it? Now look down." Alastor's words made me glare at him and shake my head hard. I tightened my arms on Alastor's neck.

What do you mean?! Are you crazy? Why should I look down just because you told me to? I'm sure one hundred percent sure it'll look just like I'm looking down while riding the drop tower ride.

Furthermore, I'm sure I'd be feeling really dizzy and nauseous considering this is the sky which is actually higher than the drop tower.

"Haha... you coward. In my whole life I have never seen someone as cowardly as you when flying." He chuckled, making me a little surprised when I heard his real laugh.

You were completely out of character today... And again! Of course you never! Because everyone you know are demons and angels who can actually fly!

I mean, what kind of flying bird is afraid of heights?! And if I were to take an analogy from my current situation, it would be like a mouse being carried by an eagle!

And again you can't be trusted! On your route, you take the heroine flying by only holding her hand. You let go of her hand until she almost touched the ground then you caught her again.

Not by accident! But because you like seeing people scared!

Ahem... Let me be clear. YOU! DELIBERATELY DROPING PEOPLE YOU LOVE FOR YOUR SATISFACTION! THEN WHAT ABOUT ME WHO IS NOT EVEN YOUR LOVER?!

Sigh... I must be crazy to believe you. It wouldn't be funny if you dropped me and I died... again...

Alastor's soft laugh broke my thoughts. The genuine smile of his that was etched on his face made him even more handsome. Don't forget his sharp canine teeth can be seen clearly. And his hair that looks soft now disheveled because of the wind.

If it wasn't for his horns I would have thought he was an angel with his big white wings and his dazzling smile.

By the way, in the game it is explained that Alastor's mother was an angel. His parents fell in love with each other.

Wait! Don't assume they got opposed by their races. Because in the game, angels and demons never fight not despise each other. And love relationships between them are allowed. Weird isn't it?

And this is where the problem arises! Several centuries earlier, due to the large amount of mixed blood between demons and angels, the priests opposed the relationship between demons and angels, thinking it would make the pure angelic race disappear completely.

That's why the priests begged their goddess that the relationship between the two races is not allowed.

The goddess replied 'they have their own rights. As long as they don't neglect their duties then it's fine.' And she disappeared without a word for several years.

If you think about it, it's the goddess who neglected her duties in this scene. Don't you think so?

Sigh... I already knew that everything related to this game was really weird. The developers are weird, the characters are weird, even the goddess in the game is weird.

Ok, back to the story. Because their wishes were not fulfilled, the priests created a research group with elves, which is one of the strong races. They created a deadly virus meant for demons.

This virus dissolves into the body and symptoms will appear when it dissolves completely. For example, if it's a demons then their horns will crack, their wings will shrink, or their power will disappear, and so on.

And the priests couldn't cure it because they made it that way.

Why am I explaining this? Because Alastor's mother, who was a demon angel mixed blood, was infected.

Funfact, Alastor's wings are angel wings, exactly like his mother's.

And yes. Lavenia got infected too somehow. But that's a different story.

By the way! Because Alastor's mother, who is the wife of the demon king, was infected by the virus, the demon king was furious.

Since then the demons have always raised war flags everywhere. Especially war in elven territory. And after that, news about elves race were never heard nor seen again.

However, they are not at war with the human race. Because angels have a role in protecting humans.

Of course that doesn't change the fact that the demon king was angry with the priests.

Sigh... and this is one of the reasons why Arkanio hates being a priest, let alone a saint.

"Stop daydreaming and hold on tight." Alastor's words broke my thoughts and made me tightened my arms.

And just as I expected, he closed his wings for a moment, sending us down quickly.

Please remind me not to fly with this demon again! Please! He's psycho!

Alastor laughed as his feet hit the ground. "You are my ideal woman."

I glared at Alastor and struggled to get down. "You actually said that after scaring me?! You little-!"

He put me down me slowly and shrugged his shoulders. "I just want you to know that you're charming."

Geez... You and your cheap tricks piss me off.

I looked around me, which was a barren desert.

Wait... I think I know this place... oh! Isn't this...

"This is where I found the fruit. My subordinates reported to me that they saw the tree appear. Come on, lady, follow me." He walked ahead of me.

Well, it's true that this is the place... but.. really? The fruit appear today?

He looked back. "Come on, what are you waiting for?"

I run a little then walked beside him.

After a while, I could faintly see it from afar, the blood-red color that glistening.

I was about to walk closer, but the intense pain that suddenly appeared in my chest made me stop. And every breath I take makes the pain worse.

Alastor swiftly caught my body that was about to fall. You can actually see the panicked look on his face.

Ugh... come on! Now is our chance of the year!

Ignoring shortness of breath, I tried to speak. "The fruit.. pick... tears..."

My eyes felt heavy and my vision blurred. Eventually I lost consciousness.

Sigh... really annoying... I wonder if Alastor understands what I'm saying.
