《A Modern Day Demon King》* Chapter 32 – The Office Ⅲ
Advertisement
At another restaurant, a party of four’s food finally arrives at the table as Reyn the gang began to eat. Halfway through the meal Zhào asks with a mouth full of food. “So, how’s the kitten you picked up doing?” Zhào mumbled.
Reyn smiles as she grabs her phone and shows them pictures of a black silky long furred cat with big blue eyes. “He’s doing quite well,” Reyn answered as she showed them various pictures of her pet cat.
Yáng smiles and says, “Have you gotten him vaccinated and natured yet?”
“That’s terribly cruel,” Zhào mumbled with a mouth full of food as winced privately at the thought of suddenly becoming a eunuch.
“Don’t listen to Zhào, Reyn. It really is important that you properly vaccinate your pet lest he catch some disease, but more importantly neuter him lest he increase the feral cat population. It is the only responsible thing to do as a pet owner,” Huáng firmly commented.
“That’s certainly. True, I can recommend a friendly veterinarian who happens to be a friend of mine,” Yáng happily interjected.
Zhào hastily wallows his food and says, “I didn’t mean it like that. I just meant it would be terribly cruel to suddenly find yourself a eunuch.”
“Now-a-days, the veterinarians don’t really cut their manhood’s off unless something goes wrong during surgery. Vets now, usually just sip the manhood like a vasectomy for any man. Technically, afterwards the cat can still get the job with the added perk that he won’t increase the feral cat population,” Huáng pointedly stated.
Reyn flashes a slightly evilly smile as she muses out loud, “Yes, that is a good idea to take my pet to the vet to have him properly taken care of and see that he is up to date on his shots.” Elsewhere, the shadow clone of Ye Ming and Ye Ming himself shiver as though someone was walking on their graves.

Zhào sighs mournfully to himself and says, “Poor bud,” before going back to eating.
“I sent you his contact information to your phone,” Yáng kindly said as Reyn’s phone slightly vibrates at receiving the message.
“Thank you, I’ll make sure to set up an appointment,” Reyn said with a chilling gleam in her eyes as she chuckles privately to herself causing thousands of shivers to creep up and down the backs of Ye Ming and his shadow clone.
The three men glance at each other as Zhào wipes his mouth clean and changes the subject. “So, anyone see the game on last night?” Zhào commented.
The subject is quickly changed as they begin to talk about the game that was on last night. Reyn quietly listens as she resumes eating and only interjects a comment every now and then. Soon enough their time is up, and they walk back to the office, content and full. However, there is a slight smirk of triumph on Reyn’s face the entire way back after reading a text message with a video. It was as if she knew something rather funny that they didn’t know about. But what could it possibly be?

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
