《Rise as a Demon Lordress》Vol 1 Ch. 2: Goddess of Flames
Advertisement
This is the start of my adventures and how a lowly Ogre Demon such as myself rose to the top of the food chain.
Kingdom of Sky Larcs
A great war between the elves and the humans drew the world into separate countries all over the world. In the sky are the elves with superior abilities known as Larcs.
Larcs are known to stay out of anything that has nothing to do with them. Even so they keep their eye on the world below them, after all they had a job to keep all creatures alike at a balance.
"Sumian! This is absurb!" A man with elf ears, green hair, and green wings entered into a shimmering palace throne room angrily.
Sumian Eldarc, A high ranking Elf Prince, stood staring into a veiwing space.
"Ah, if it isn't Perstis. What do I owe the pleasure?" Prince Sumian asked as he snapped his finger.
The Veiwing space disappeared instantly.
"You ask as if you don't know? Are you serious? You have some nerve, you ass!" Perstis yells pointing in Prince Sumian's direction.
Prince Sumian pasted a fake smile on his lips before taking a seat in his throne chair.
"Is this about the Duke's younger sister, perhaps?" He asked as he narrowed his gaze at Perstis.
Perstis clenches his fist trying not to explode.
"You know this is about that. Why did you insist in marrying her off to that Yuvo?" He asked.
Prince Sumian doesn't answer, "hmm..."
Seems that he stumbled onto something bothersome.
"Indeed I did insist it, but the choice was entirely up to her." He says with a shrug.
Perstis glared at him.
"You know, even if you're my dearest friend and the Duke himself. I advise you to watch that expression of yours." Prince Sumian says his tone cold as ice.
Parstis turns away with an angry expression, "hmph." He says with his arms crossed.
Prince Sumian sighs. It seems he has spoiled his dear friend way too much.

"It occurs to me that you should get yourself a wife, Perstis. Perhaps it will erase that strange sister complex you have." Prince Sumian says.
Perstis flinched, "urk...."
If Somia heard the way he fretted so much over her she'd probably rebel even more. It's clear that girl is doing her best to upset this clingy brother of hers.
"Dammit!" Perstis sweeps back his robe before exiting the throne room.
"I wonder, if it really is alright to leave him like that?" He mutters to himself.
A small smile came across Prince Sumian's lips.
Even so, it will really be interesting to watch how this playes out.
For now he need to keep an eye on something going on down below.
He snaps his fingers as the Veiwing space reappeared in front of hi.
One can see a volcano errupting in a canyon.
It looks like something dangerous is awaking.
When was the last time something happened since the last Great War?
Prince Sumian rubs his chin, if his calculations were correct, that King of Dragons have been sleep for about 500 years.
Let's not peek anymore, after all that guy can always tell when someone is peeking in on him.
Snaps finger and the Veiwing space disappears once again.
Nothing ever turns out good when that guy is around, too bad that all he can do is watch.
Irata City
"Ten gold for this fine Saber-Wolf fur!" A merchant calls out as the crowded city of Irata was ablazed with visitors and residents alike.
I was thankful for the dingy, dirt-clad cloak that we wore. The less attention I drew the better.
I even made sure we both wore a mask to hide our faces.
Irata city was a place where monters roamed but I couldn't say the same for demons.
It was understandable that humans would fear our kind the most, since we demons despised humans and treat them as part of the food chain.
I was once human, but I rather not be bothered by them as long as they did not bother me.

One thing I have noticed is that with Kika by my side things have been a bit hectic.
He gets way too excited very easily.
I'm afraid with him by my side we would draw attention to ourselves eventually.
I should find a place for us to reside for a bit away from the public eye.
Since, I don't have money on me I think I could take on a quest to earn some change.
It would have to be something that isn't way too dangerous but garner enough cash to sleep for a few days.
Kika and I entered an Adventure Guild that was not too far from the town center.
The whispers around us made me adjust my hood as we walked through a crowd of adventurers to the desk clerk.
I hope that they haven't noticed that we were demons.
The man at the desk glanced towards us with a suspicious stare, "may I help you?" He asked.
I clear my thoat, "I wish to sign up for that." I say pointing to the quest board where the adventurers gathered.
Thanks to my new ability to speak and understand several languages something like this was no problem.
He followed my fingers to the board and glanced back at me and Kika.
"Are you for real? Aren't you two just kids?" He asked.
"I'm already fifteen." I told him dryly.
"Woah really! Wow, you guys are small. I thought for sure you were younger than that!" The clerk says with a shocked expression.
How annoying. But it is true, I may be a bit taller than Kika but I was still short compared to most humans and demon races.
As a mater of fact the orge demons were small to begin with ,unless we undergo an evolution.
"Stop talking nonsense and sign us up." I say trying my best to keep my anger in check.
The clerk nervously pulls out a paper and lies it on the desk, "please sign this and I'll explain....."
I grabbed the paper and signed it, "there's no need to explain anything. I'm well aware of how everything works." I tell him.
That's right, things like this was something my human self knew back in my past life.
Added on the fact that all that knowledge was given to me by that strange marble.
I pat Kika on the shoulder, "let's go, Kika." I say as the two of us head over to the quest board.
"Um, Ree...I mean Master? How come you can speak the human language?" Kika whispers to me.
"I just do." I tell him.
"What's with these kids? Do they think being adventurer's a game?" A voice says behind us.
I turned my head to find a human man with a smirk on his lips.
He had dark blonde hair, dark blue eyes, and in human terms was pretty handsome.
"We're not kids. Don't bother us." I tell him turning back to the quest board.
"Not kids you say." He grabs my arm.
I turned to glare at him, but he couldn't see pass my mask.
"Hey, Francois. Let the girl go, 'kay?" A woman's voice said.
"It's the famous "Goddess of Flames"." People were saying.
The man squeezed my arm tightly but then dropped it before facing the woman in question.
"Nimata, what a pleasant surprise. Did you go slay another dragon?" He asked with a fake smile.
"Don't be sarcastic, Francois. How about finding someone else to bully. Leave the newbies alone." Nimata says with narrowed eyes.
He was quiet for a minute, "of course. How could I possibly ignore the famous hero "Goddess of Flames"." He says before glaring in my direction.
He sweeps back his shirt before turning away to leave out the adventure guild.
"What an ass." Nimata mutters before facing us.

Catalyst: Avowed
The year is 605, and in your home— the country of Corcaea— the souls of mankind belong to demons. A phenomenon known as the "Catalyst" is what's to blame. This diabolical phenomenon lurks within every man, woman, and child. It can turn any human into a demon, if they fall prey to one, all-consuming element. It can be anything. Fear. Grief. Generosity. Even love. In a land where Gods are real and Corcaea's theocracy is the last hope for mankind, you follow in the footsteps of Father Richard Anscham: a deeply disturbed young priest, the leader of the Church of Mercy, and the foremost researcher of the Catalyst. Despite completing a holy mission from the Goddess of Mercy, obtaining a holy Relic, and escaping from demon-infested ruins, Father Anscham is in greater peril than ever before. Ravaged in mind, body, and soul, the solace he begs to receive from the Church of Flesh is impeded by a cruel lesson: the ramifications of a life spent sacrificing everything one has for others. See through the harrowing eyes of a man at his wit's end; through a dark fantasy tale of horror, hope, and desperation. Search for the cure. Conquer your personal demons. Welcome to Catalyst! As this is an archive of Catalyst Quest (an interactive, collaborative story), the prompts that were included with the original run of Avowed have been stripped, and the story is presented like a traditional novel for your reading convenience.
