Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter

Chapter 12 Just A Simple Guy



Max became a little stumped hearing that. He wasn't expecting to get that answer, because throughout these past days after rebirth, anything he asked the system about, it would answer everything.

'Looks like the system is scared of my safety or just keeping the information locked so as not to make me worry.' Coming with his own conclusion, Max tossed away the question he asked at the back of his mind.

Max felt he would know the truth about this eventually when he gained a certain amount of strength.

"So, system, can you give me the rewards for completing the first mission then?" Max asked with a teasing voice.

[ Ding ]

[ Congratulations! You have completed the mission: "The First Subordinate" ]

[ Congratulations! You have received A Random Breathing Technique (Peak Earth Grade): Purple Sun Technique. ]

[ Congratulations! You have received A Random Weapon (Earth Grade): Demon-Splitter. ]

'These two sound awesome, let me see if their capability is good too.' Max had seen many stuff with cool names on them, but when you buy it and use it, you will know most are useless and they were told exaggeratedly.

[ Purple Sun Technique: A technique derived from the demon realm's lowest sun, the Purple Sun. This sun has purple flame and lightning that contains great destruction ability. ]

[ Demon-Splitter: A katana made of a black, shimmering metal that seems to reflect the abyss itself. This katana can be called an abyss itself. It absorbs the souls of the ones the user kills and becomes stronger gradually. This weapon can only be used by someone who knows dark magic. ]

Max skepticism was still there but most of it was gone after reading those. He would fully believe after seeing them and experiencing himself.

'But now is not the time, I have to find a place to rest first.' Max looked at the sun that was setting, turning the forest into darkness again.

Searching for a few minutes or so, Max was not able to find a single place to spend a night. 'I guess, we will sleep on a tree branch tonight.'

He climbed up the nearest tree with Ravenna on his back. It was hard to climb but not impossible.

Sitting on a thick branch with Revenna on his lap now, he started eating fruits he picked up when he was on the search.

Max looked up at the red and blue moon that was shining mildly and floating in the dark ocean like a couple.

Max hugged Ravenna and she went back to, thinking of his pillow. Max got reminded of Ana, after feeling Ravenna's small body hugging him.

Max said melancholy, "I am waiting for you, Ana."

Saying that Max closed his eyes and fell asleep with Ravenna in his arms.

"Wake up…Wake up…" Max opened his drowsy eyes, and saw a blurry picture of Ana. "...Ana."

Max forcefully got rid of drowsiness and looked carefully.

"Lord, you are finally awake." Max got disappointed when he saw and heard it was just Ravenna. However, he quickly got rid of the disappointment and regained his stoner and serious face.

"When did you wake up?" Max asked curiously as he looked at her rosy and healthy body which was totally different from yesterday.

Ravenna proudly said. "Lord, I went hunting for some food for you but I didn't find anything. Luckily, a rabbit passed by me. Look below, Lord."

Max did as she told him to and saw a dead white rabbit lying down beside the tree trunk.

"Good job…" Max just said that and his eyes widened. "Did you just kill a rabbit?"

Max was asked that because when he was in the forest these past few days, he didn't find any normal animals. He only saw big, gigantic beasts roaming around. He felt the normal animals will be nearby humans as humans would keep these animals for stockpiles.

Max got ecstatic thinking about that but he calmed himself down.

Ravenna tilted her head in confusion as to understanding why the lord asked such a simple question. "Lord, did I do something wrong killing that rabbit?"

"No, you did a great job. It is just that I had never seen a rabbit after coming to this world." Max said as he jumped down from the branch.

Ravenna landed next to him and asked. "Really, Lord?"

Max nodded his head, then he looked at the rabbit and said."Let's first have our breakfast."

Ravenna nodded quickly. She picked up the dead rabbit and tore it apart from the middle and gave Max one of it.

Max stood there, dumbfounded.

"What happened, Lord? Don't you like the rabbit Ravenna hunted?" Ravenna's eyes became watery and tears were about to fall from her eyes.

Max facepalmed and took both of the rabbit's body parts. "We can't eat these raw. We have to cook first."

"What is cook?" Ravenna asked with doubt as this wasn't in her vocabulary.

Max gathered dry grass, and branches and started making fire with the primitive method - banging stones.

With his strength and skill, he caused a spark and made a fire. He inserted a sharp stick inside the rabbit's body and put it above the fire. "This is cooking. Burning raw food with fire to make it tastier."

This was the simplest explanation Max could give to Ravenna. He felt she didn't have to know everything as she might not understand it. He could teach her slowly everything he knew about.

Ravenna's eyes sparkled. "The Lord is really intelligent. He knows such a great discovery."

Max didn't want to bask in the false praise, he told her the truth immediately. "I am not intelligent, I am just using what humans have discovered through history."

"Then does that mean humans discovered all the secrets? Lord won't be able to discover anything new anymore?" Ravenna asked, scratching her head.

Max turned his head and looked at Ravenna with a new light. 'She was able to get that quickly with such a small clue? I think I underestimated the demons with high-ranking bloodlines.'

Then he answered Revenna's question with a smile on his face."No, I won't be able to discover new things. I am just a simple guy. But I can or we can do many new things with this existing knowledge."
