I'm not the hero.

Chapter 1-One shot

Raven Von Elizabella POV

I was walking into the dining hall,when i was suddenly engulfed by a bright ray of light. I covered my eyes as i waited for the light to die down and to continue my way.

"Oh Hero! Thank you for answering the call."

"Huh?" I slowly open my eyes to see myself in a throne room.

The long white haired old man then continue talking about some absurd stuff.

"Oh Hero. Our land have been pulverised by the evil demons and the Demon Queen who led them. We seek your aid in helping us reclaim back those lands."

Demon Queen?

"I'm not the hero." I say as i stare at them blankly.

"No. You are certainly the Hero. Your light blue eyes and long pale silver hair certainly define you."

Light blue eyes? It's my family trait afterall. But... silver hair? What does the colour of my hair and eyes got to do with this in the first place?

"You have a pure soul,Holy Maiden."A fat man. Or rather, a extremely fat man whose stomach seem to explode soon says as he push his glasses up. He shouldn't wear a white dress with a cross at the center. It makes him look fatter. And what's with that tall white hat? His head must be heavy to lift up.

"As i was saying, please defeat the Demon Queen." That long white haired old man lets out a cough as he look hopefully at me.

"I'm not the hero." I say once again. Seriously, they should go look for someone else to do this. I'm not gonna be part of free labour. Find a man stupid enough to do it.

"No. You are certainly the Hero." He held out his hands, wanting to hold mine to have me sympathise him.

"Argh!" That old man screams as he holds his wrist, now bloody. His hand fell to the floor, cleanly cut by the long katana that came out of nowhere.

"Know thy place, Maggots!" A black-masked horned man flew out from behind me.

"A devil with wings...A high ranking Devil?!And with a golden mark? It's the Demon Queen's personal Shadows!" The surrounding gasps and shiver as the old man threw some blue-looking water at the horned man.

"Mere toys do no harm to us." He said. His eyes turned red as he slice the old man into two.

He turned the floor red as he goes on a killing spree. It was simply a massacre. Or rather, live target training. My eyes slit red from the smell of the blood drifting around the room. The lifeless corpses lay motionlessly all over the floor. All the guards that came in was immediately killed before they could let out a scream.

The horned man throw the only survivor in front of me, the king. He then keeps his blade back into the scabbard. The king looks at the horned man in anger. He then looks at me with hope and determination.

"Kill him, Hero. He's the underling of the Demon Queen."

"Shut it!" The horned man slit the mouth of the king as the king screamed in agony.

"So what are we doing now, Your Highness?" The horned man kneel down before me. The king, looks at me in disbelief then horror, finally noticing my now red eyes:The trademark of all Devils and Demons.Adding on, Alex did call me your highness. He can't blame me though,I did say that i am not the Hero.

"Do call me Elizabella, Alex. You are after all, one of my personal bodyguard." I smile at the horned man.

"That is improper...and allow me to apologise, Raven-sama. I failed to stop your teleportation to this filthy place." Alex clenched his fist tightly. Looking at the half-dead king in disgust.

"The humans are hilarious. To not even know their enemy's face. Am i that insignificant?" I sigh as i plunge my hand into the king's body, taking out the heart. The heart slowly stop beating as i threw it beside the dead king. How boorish, to get killed just like that.

"Your highness is the greatest of all. It's just that the humans are too foolish and are not worthy to know your appearance."

I laugh at his words. I then remembered how they said i am the hero because of my appearance and my 'pure' soul.

"If i'm really the Hero of the world, then the humans are the pest of the world. If my soul is pure, then it's because the souls of the humans are tainted." I say before i turn and disappear.
