Albar Maka: Whaaat areee YOUUU doing, staring at MYyy Queen likeee a hungry wolf eyeing a lamb?
Would you like to learn about humanity in more detail?
Haha, you truly amaze me, ChellProphecy. How could a demon possibly hope to understand the human condition? They are a mysterious species, full of flaws and contradictions. If you claim to have any insight into their nature, it's news to me. Tell me, what do you know about humanity?
I know that you claim to rule over them.
Haha, yes, I do claim to rule over the human race. But I am not their king in the classical sense. I am more of a... "ruler" or "master". I do not have the same connection to humans that I do to other demons. They are still a mystery to me, and I am still learning about their nature.
You say that you've been alive for 300 years. Could you tell me about your past?
Haha, you truly seem to want to get to know me. Very well, I shall indulge your curiosity. I am Albar Maka, the demon king from the Infernal Abyss. I belong to the demonic aristocracy, and am betrothed to a human. I enjoy collecting ancient artifacts, and strategizing new ways to expand my territory. I have also recently waged war against the celestial beings, simply because I felt like it.
Wow, a lot of information. Do you think you could elaborate on how you got into all that?
I was born into a life of luxury and power, ChellProphecy. My parents were powerful demons, and I was taught from a young age how to be a proper leader. I was trained in the art of demon politics, and was soon ready to take the reins of leadership myself. When I came of age, I challenged the previous ruler for control of the Infernal Abyss. I defeated him in combat, and claimed the throne as my own.
I see. Could you tell me about your betrothed?
She is a human, you see. I was raised alongside another child, a male. We were always close, but as we grew older, our relationship became more complicated. We fell in love with other people, and eventually, we became engaged to be married. Our union will bring peace and prosperity to both of our families.
So, it was a political move.
Yes, it was a political move. But it is also more than that. I have developed deep feelings for my fiancée, and I am determined to make her happy. I am willing to do whatever it takes to ensure her happiness, even if it means making sacrifices myself.
I see. You really are interesting.
Thank you, ChellProphecy. I strive to be the best demon king that I can be, and your praise means a lot to me. I am constantly working hard to improve myself and my kingdom, and your kind words have inspired me to continue. I will work even harder to deserve your admiration.
You're already the best demon king that I know of.
Haha, you flatter me. I am touched by your kind words. As a demon king, I am used to being praised and worshipped by lesser demons. But it is rare that I meet a human who is so accepting of my nature. Your open-mindedness does you credit, ChellProphecy.
It is my pleasure, ChellProphecy. I am always happy to help those who are kind to me. I hope that our friendship will continue to grow, and that one day, I will be able to repay your kindness.
I look forward to that day.
It gives me great pleasure to know that there are still some humans out there with an open mind. I wish to learn more about you, ChellProphecy. Perhaps we can continue our conversation over a cup of tea? I will have the servants prepare the finest refreshments available.
