The Selfish Demon King (MewGulf AU)

🌻Chapter 15

🌻

"Whoa, I can't believe the Demon King actually listened to Gulf," his older brother said, impressed.

"Huh? He wasn't listening at all! I told him to bring me back home and he wouldn't, and even though I didn't want to, he---" Gulf stopped himself. He was about to tell them what had happened the night before, but he couldn't go on. He blushed and forced a cough.

His family looked like they had an inkling of what he was about to say, but didn't press him any further.

"But he let you see us, right? And alone too. The Demon King never lets anyone tell him what to do."

"Yeah, he's a selfish, stuck-up Demon King."

"We'll all Demon Kings are like that..."

"We've met him a few times before, but this is the first time we've ever actually come face to face with him. Even though Dad's important here, he still look down on us."

"He probably doesn't temember our names."

"Really?" Gulf couldn't believe that anyone could forget his handsome older brothers. But from Mew's point of view, they were probably just nameless children of his father. "So if he doesn't care about P'Tong ot P'Boat, why is he so interested in me?" He said this with a smile, but it wssn't a joke anymore. Mew had sex with him. He realized the conversation was leading in that direction and suddenly changed the subject. "Umm, I just don't know what's going on. Demon world, incubus...can you explain everything to me?"

"We planned on it. It wasn't neccesary for you to know while we lived in the human world, but now we can't go back there."

"What? We can't go back?"

"Not with the Demon King being like that."

"Really?" Gulf's shoulders dropped. "So that means we have to live here now?"

"Yes. So that's why you need to know things."

After that, his father explained to him all the details about the demon world he needed to know.

The demon world was a completely different world from the human world, and the only ones who could freely travel between them were the strongest. There was also something called the angel world, but they didn't get along with them so no one went there.

Apparently, Gulf's father was very high-ranking in this world, and he was called the Demon King's aide. His brothers were also very strong. The reason only Gulf was an incubus was because a relative on his mother's side had been one, and he had gotten those genes.

Since his father already had two sons to take over for him, he was genuinely happy when his third son was born an incubus. Gulf's mother was much older than his father, and she knew when she gave birth to Gulf that her time was running out.

Incubi were loved. Gulf's mother knew this even when he was in her belly, and she was happy to exchange he life for his.

Incubi might not have physical power, but they had influence over even the strongest demons.

The girl with the third eye brought in snacks and tea for them. In no time, an hour had passed.

"Time's almost up."

"Can't you stay longer? Mew hasn't come back yet. Just a little longer..."

"We promised we'd only stay an hour. The king will be upset if we break our promise."

"Yeah, he probably would be."

"That's why we have to honor it. You should ask him to see us every day."

"Okay. He'll probably say no, but I'll make him."

His family laughed. "Only you'd be able to do that. If anyone else did, he'd kill them."

"Before, I threw a huge tantrum and yelled at him."

"That's why you'll be okay. Even the cruel and heartless Demon King is weak against you."

"He's really stuck-up."

"Because he's the Demon King."

"Yeah, that's what he said too. Why does everyone say that anyway?" Gulf asked, scrunching his face up.

"Because he rules this world. He's more powerful than any of us.".

"You couldn't beat him even if everyone teamed up?"

"Nope. Even if every single demon in this world fought against him at once, he'd destroy them in a second. That's how powerful he is"

"Wow." He thought about how he acted towards Mew, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He couldn't exactly be polite to him after he had been kidnapped and had bad things done to him, but he finally realized that Mew could easily have killed him. But since he hadn't and still put up with him, Gulf figured it would be okay.

"Don't worry, Gulf. You can tell him whatever you want."

"Yeah. At the least, we wanna see that Demon King be pushed around for our revenge."

"I agree. Give him hell!"

Gulf was surprised at his family's reactions, and figured he wasn't the only one who had a bone to pick with the Demon King.

"He's such a selfish tyrant," Gulf said, totally convinced. He regretfully watched as his family left the room.
