Chapter 293 - A Fire Demons Past (2/2)

There was a young little red-skinned demon with two black horns on his forehead and black hair, smiling innocently at demon of similar appearance, but that was as tall as three meters, packed with muscles.

”Papa, look! I learned this technique!” said the little kid, as he kicked a wooden dummy and managed to crack it slightly, his kick was strong and direct, and it even contained powerful Fire Qi, making it explosive.

”I cracked it!” he said.

However, the man, his father, looked down on him with his crimson-red eyes…

”Pathetic…” he said, as he waved his head in disappointment.

”E-Eh?”

The boy, expecting praises after having practiced so hard, was called pathetic instead, by his own father…

”You're about to be 5 years of age and you're telling me you can't break a wooden dummy yet?” asked the man.

”F-Father… I…. I worked… hard…” he said.

”You worked hard for this?! Your big brother was able to break this thing when he was merely two years of age! And even incinerated it into ashes… And you… You… what did you even do? Nothing! You've been training years for nothing?” asked the man.

The boy suddenly felt intimidated, falling over his butt as he looked at the figure he should admire with fear.

”You're an unsightly son… Get out of my sight.” Said the man, his eyes seemed furious.

”Sniff… Sob…”

The boy began to cry while covering his face, as he ran away from the room.

The man sat down cross-legged, seeing the boy off.

”Hahh… What have I done wrong for my third child to be this untalented? I should had thrown him into the lake of burning lava when it was born, and I was told it had a terrible constitution… I would had saved myself this humiliation.” He sighed.

The little boy heads his father speak, as he was standing behind the wall of the room, his eyes seemed to be pouring tears constantly…

A beautiful demon woman showed up to the other corner of the room.

”Dear? W-What's wrong? Why are you crying?” she asked.

”Sniff…”

The boy ran away from his mother, as he closed himself on his room.

That night, the demon boy heard a discussion going on between his mother and his father…

”Why did you said that to our son?! Don't you have a heart?!”

”Heart?! There's no need for a heart! We are demons! Who will teach him that this world is harsh if it is not his father?! He is a talentless child! He needs to work a thousand times harder than others to even fathom to have one percent of the strength of his older brothers!”
