The Darkness In Your Mind

Chapter 26 - Humans vary, but most are weak (2)

I went to tell Lucy that we are going to go see my parents on monday and she was really excited, it seems she really wants to meet them. I tell her about my father who is a farmer now but used to be an adventurer though he was never a really strong one. I also tell her about my mother who is just a farmer and a really kind woman.

We then went into the village and asked one of the vampires skilled in tailoring to make her something. She got a cute dress kind of like the one I first bought her but more sparkly and bright blue this time. After that we just killed time while waiting for Monday to come since we had nothing else to do.

Before we knew it the rest of Saturday and also Sunday had passed and it was time to head to my parent's house. We let Layson and Keno head to school first before us about 30 minutes ago so now we don't have to drop them off on the way. I also told them to explain that I am not at school today because I am visiting family.

I'm pretty sure the teachers will be alright with it because they like me, though I doubt they would accept this kind of thing all the time. I get in the carriage with Lucy and we begin heading to my parents house which is a about an hour or so drive so its a good thing I let Layson and Keno go first otherwise we would have had an hour and 30 mins plus the extra time of exiting it out of the capital.

Meanwhile at a farmhouse somewhere... Baphen grins at the man and woman he is staring at, along with the baby that the woman is holding, it appears to be a boy. The woman looks frightened a bit but the man looks unfazed, in fact he just looks serious as if he knows that there is nothing he can do but he would still fight if he had to even if it would cost him his life.

Baphen says "Don't worry I'm not going to do anything to you, I'm just here to meet your son that's all, I just want to have a friendly conversation with him to discuss business." The man nods instead of speaking because he knows that whatever he may say could very well be the last. He knows that Baphen could get offended really easily and is a demon lord known to kill people who offend him.

The man just hopes that nothing happens to his son or his now second son either. About an hour later we arrive at my parents farmhouse and begin to walk up to the house with Lucy holding my hand. As I enter I get a bad feeling, So I tell Lucy to keep her shoes on for now, then I goe to the dinning room.

There I see it, my mother holding a baby boy which I smiles at because I knew that she was pregnat when I left but I didnt know when they would have the baby or what the gender would be. However my expression changes immedietly when I see's my dad's expression, I have only ever seen my father looking like that once in my whole life.

It was when my three freinds now dead freinds and I were in danger of losing our life to a wolf in the forest as little kids. My father saved us that day and when he did that same exact expression he had now was staring at the wolf the entire time from when he first layed eyes on it, till the moment he killed it.

I then look over to where my fathers gaze shifts after he gives me a small nod and turns back around. I stop dead in my tracks, before my parents is undoubtably a demon lord. He is wearing such rich looking clothes, a black crown on his head and he has two almost see through horns on his forhead as well.

I go on guard immedietly and say "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU HERE!" The demon lord just chuckles and says "I know you are going to get in my way so I figured I would nip this in the bud real fast, after all there is no way you are stronger than me and I also cant risk this little one becoming a demon lord as well can I?"

I immedietly know what he means, but before I can do anything, he gets up and pulls his right hand out of his robe pocket. The hand has extreamly sharp and girlishly long finger nails that are light silver in color. He takes that hand and stabs right into the baby's head killing it instantly without any remorse.

My teeth grit a bit, I dont know why, but they do however that stops after a few seconds. My mother then screams out "Noooooo!" My father gets up and says "You bastard, I don't care how strong you are I'm sure you cant dodge an arrow at this range." Baphen sighs and then says "Oh shut up, I dont need you two anymore you have already fufiled your use for me."

My eyes widen for some reason at what he says and I shout out instinctivly "NO DONT DO IT, STOP!" But it is too late, Baphen cuts the heads of my Mother and father clean off their shoulders and they fall to the floor lifeless. After that Baphen just turns to me and giggles before saying "Alright now it's your turn I guess, hmmm or I could give you the chance to live by letting you join my ranks?"

My fist are clenched extreamly tight, so tight that they are even bleeding, I slam my fist on the wall with my head facing down at the floor and say very very quietly and still calm "Lucy sweetie, go outside all the way back to the carraige." Lucy says "What did you say big brother I didn't hear what you said."

I then bring my head up and shout at the top of my lungs "LUCY GO OUTSIDE AND WAIT BY THE CARRAIGE IM GOING TO RIP THIS DAMN GUY TO SHREADS LEAVING BEHIND NOTHING BUT GOD DAMN BONES AND I SWEAR BY THE TIME IM DONE THERES A CHANCE NOT EVEN THOSE WILL BE LEFT!"

Lucy is frightened very much and runs outside back to the carriage, while I am still in the house and something is very VERY different about me. My magic partical flow is much much stronger but for some reason, I feel as if something is missing, something that I have yet to stumble across that I despretly need, I brush it aside and just laugh crazily while tilting my head from left to right.

My neck pops both times and then I say before grinning "Alright, let the fun begin."
