20 Elithia arc: Episode 2- The Demon Lord (2/2)

”Umm… Thank you for saving me.” She said.

”I have to apply ice on your bruises. Lie down.” I kept my words short because my mood was still off from that.

”Okay..” The girl lied down. I tried to make some ice cubes, but it turned out to be a big piece of ice. Seems that I can not control my power yet.

After applying ice on her bruises, I asked her if there was a better village to live than this one.

”We can reach the village called 'Mariamarc' in two days if we walk.” Said the girl.

”Who said that you can come with me?” I said as she would just slow me down.

”But you are little kid, the goblins will kill you.” She said.

”You are not one to talk. You are also a kid.” I replied.

”Please let me come with you, …”

”My name is Todoroki Shoto.”

”Then please let me join you, Todoroki-kun. You are so strong. If I stay alone, they will kill me.” This time her eyes became filled with tears.

I looked at her for a few seconds…

”Okay. But what's your name?” I asked.

”My name is Sumire.” She said.

”Hmm. Then ca-” I felt a very powerful energy coming towards me. I quickly looked back and shouted, ”Who are you?”

”My, my. I got discovered. I was going to return to the castle. I sensed a very powerful soul here. Never imagined that it would be such a little kid… ” a woman wearing a very attractive cloth appeared out of nowhere before me.

Her head had two curled horns. Could she be the creature that I am imagining right now?...

”I am the Demon Lord Osaka.” Said the woman.

Shit! I never imagined that I would have to face a demon lord this early….
