Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

Chapter 95 - Typical Humans



"You see, every one of us has a demon inside us. And that demon—"

"Wait a minute," Zeus interrupted Ajax and asked, "What do you mean by \'every one of us\'? Like exactly what? Everyone who got demon blood?" 

"Uhh… no. I was talking in general. Take any race. And I wasn\'t referring to the \'demon\' demon," Ajax quoted \'demon\' with his fingers.

"Just assume it as an evil side of every living being, okay?"

"Go ahead," Zeus nodded.

"That evil side makes us do evil things, obviously. But the people with demon blood have it worse."

Ajax was referring to the \'Evil side\' as a demon.

"Details, please," Zeus motioned.

"You see, I get these thoughts. Very cruel and nasty thoughts. Disgusting and selfish thoughts. And these—"

"Enough with the \'thoughts\'. Get to the point now," Zeus urged.

"It whispers to me. It wants me to do those evil things that I swear I would never even think of doing it."

"Like?"

"..." Ajax didn\'t reply and stood there in silence.

"If you don\'t tell me, then I can\'t help you, you know?"

SIGH!

Ajax sighed and sat on the pedestal:

"Thoughts like… killing my sick wife or harming my daughter. Go at wars. Crush everything that stands against me— including you," Ajax motioned.

"Wow! Those are indeed evil thoughts." 

"I don\'t know why I have these thoughts, but they keep getting worse day by day. And I am afraid that I will go mad and they will devour me to make me do those things. And…"

Ajax looked at Zeus with a painful expression on his face and shook his head, "I don\'t want to do that."

Zeus watched Ajax as he acted unsettling and sat beside Ajax.

"You see, these types of thoughts are natural, and you don\'t have to worry about those things."

"But they—"

Zeus placed his hand on Ajax\'s shoulder and continued, "In the end, it would be up to you to do things. The evil side and demon you talked about are simply your illusions. If you do something bad, that means you wanted to do it. Not because of your evil side or demon or some shit."

Ajax looked at Zeus and stared at his face:

"What about you? Have you never thought of doing evil things? Have you never had these dirty thoughts?"

"Oh, believe me," Zeus sneered and uttered, "I get them a lot more than you think you do… or I do. But I choose not to do them. Because there is no reason for me to do evil things or be evil. There is no gain for me."

"I wish I could be as optimistic as you," Ajax stood up and walked some steps as he uttered, "Instead of cursing my demon blood and calling it a sign of filth." 

"Why would you hate your demon blood? It\'s good, right? Don\'t you get superhuman abilities and some power controls on top of abundant mana?"

"How it all began is nothing but a scheme of filth," Ajax repeated.

"How did it begin?" Zeus asked with a curious yet calm look on his face.

"Centuries ago, when demons were abundant in this world; when humans were constantly in wars with and against different races, the king took the princess to a war. She was a warrior, and the kingdom didn\'t have much man army, so even the citizens were forced to participate in the war."

"The war was getting serious, and the casualties kept increases. So they retreated and planned to tighten their defense."

"During that war, the princess was raped by demons, and that resulted in her getting pregnant."

"I can now pretty much guess and predict the rest of the story," Zeus murmured.

"No, you can\'t. Because this story doesn\'t end there," Ajax climbed the pedestals and sat on the throne.

"At that time, the princess nor the king knew that she was pregnant. But the symptoms soon started to show off, and she got dead sick. The king called the medics and wizards and every high entity to treat the princess. And the only way was to get rid of the child in her womb."

"The king was ready to do it, and so was the princess. Now you might think that the princess was cruel, but that wasn\'t the case."

"Her health and pain kept getting worse, and she could hardly stay sane," Zeus guessed.

"Yes. But when the king heard about other incidents were a half-human a half-demon child born with superhuman abilities and mana, the king got greedy."

"He forced the princess to give birth to that child?" Zeus questioned.

"Not exactly. At first, he tried to explain to the princess how it would help the kingdom to rise back from the ashes and all, but the princess was still against it."

"In the end, the king locked up the princess in her room and ordered the servants and soldiers to keep their eyes on her."

"But as the time passed, the princess\'s condition got worse and worse. Her hairs had fallen off, and her body had become thin and dry. She had become so skinny that her bones could be seen through her skin. And instead of worrying about the princess, the king was worried about the child."

"Typical humans," Zeus muttered.

"When the princess was six months pregnant with her child, she went completely insane. She would attack the servants and soldiers. Then, the king ordered to tie her up and feed her by force."

"When the princess was seven months pregnant, her body started deforming. The king was scared that something might happen to the child in her womb, so he ripped the princess\'s stomach and took the baby out. And killed the princess."

"She would have still died while giving birth, or maybe even prior to that," Zeus asserted.

"Yes. I am aware of that. A human can\'t conceive children of other races— it\'s very lethal for them."

After a brief silence, Zeus asked with a frowned face, "Tell me that king met the end he deserved."
