Dark circles around his eyes. Apparently Luc didn't sleep much last night. Too busy humoring Arachnes...

His father walks into the Throne room. He is humming a cheerful tunes.

Luc looks upward when he passes him.

"Having fun last night, Son? The Arachnes seemed overjoyed with your excellent performances."

"Please..."

"Sorry, can't hear you, Son. I'm a very old demon after all."

Luc is down to his knees. Kneeling. Pleading for the first time in his life. It would be very hard for him. A proud man like him. Bowing down to the demon he abhorred all his life.

His father raises his eyebrows but says nothing.

Luc says firmly, "I'm a warrior. I will live by my sword. Father, I shall be your blade. Don't force me to be a gigolo."

His father mocks, "Sharkie would kill for your spot as a breeder."

"Let him do it. I rather be in the battlefield."

His father snaps his fingers and the magic chain around Luc's wrists breaks into two. The next snapping fingers and the thick chains around his ankles break.

The Demon King orders, "This is your last warning, Son. Make me proud. Show me your fierce demon side."

"I won't let you down, Sire."

His father claps his hands and ten lovely female demons appear behind him.

The Demon King says, "Be my blade or return to your post as a breeder. These ladies would be waiting for your return."

The women look disappointed. They are eyeing him like a hungry predators.

Luc gulps and he quickly leaves the Throne room. There is no way he would be a gigolo for the demons.

He just got out of the castle when a hatchet almost strikes his head.

Luc dodges it right on time.

It's Sharkie again.

He looks pissed off.

Their father always chose Luc over him. The ladies also chose his brother too.

Sharkie threatens, "When I got your little tomboy girl, I will make her my woman, Bro. A permanent one."

Luc stares him right on his eyes.

He says coldly, "I got the whole harem waiting for me at home. Why would I choose a feeble human being over them?"

Sharkie only glares at him.

Luc is a Beetle King. A full fledged demon. Won't be so easy to defeat him now.

They are still glaring angrily when their father shows up.

"Having fun, boys? I need you to eliminate a human settlement down south. Our tracker just found the right location."

Sharkie bows quickly, eager to earn more points in their father's eyes.

Luc's face turns pale.

The Demon King asks, "Change your mind, Son? The ladies are still waiting for you in there."

Luc gulps. He closes his eyes and inhales a deep breath.

His eyes show determination when he replies, "I'm ready. Give me back my blade."

His father tosses him the blade and Luc catches it's hilt with a hand.

Luc leaves shortly afterwards.
