Finally wearing my new black cloak it felt different. Actually I felt mana drifting off it but I had no idea what it actually does. The princess showed me around the castle and everything looked expensive. Servants would bring me all types of monster cores and just like that weeks passed and I got larger. I must have grown a foot and I am a good eight foot long now. Flying around the castle I found that the Demon Kingdom Bane looked to be heavily militarized. Everyone wore armor or training and it looked like they loved it. I was finally actually able to learn more spells and found out I had some more affinity for poison, necromancy and illusion. And the fun thing is I can mix them together meaning I can make my flames also toxic or my lightning with illusions. I would help King Zelebres train while his daughter watched. He would use a massive claymore to cleave me in half but using my tail I was more than a match for him. It always ends with my victory. Corina apparently was a magician and also wanted to challenge me. I decided to use air mana against her and her lightning. She had more talent than her father as she actually made me feel tingly from her spells but she lost because she had not enough stamina or mana to challenge me. War was coming and it was now autumn and demons could handle any type of weather which is why they wanted to push the humans during the time they were the most vulnerable. The preparations on supplies and strategy were going excellent not only that but King Zelebres told me that my kin was still part of this world but are currently in hibernation which may take up to hundreds of years. They would dig deep underground and hibernate and when they come back into our world they bring destruction and chaos. The reason why no one knows where they are is because they killed everyone and the ones who survived were too much of a coward to know anything.
