"With that power, I felt almost unstoppable, like I could take over the world and get revenge on all of those that wrong me… Which was exactly what I did…"

"I ordered the boy I got under my control to invite the other kids over to have turns "beating me up" one by one in private until I grovel on the ground and beg for mercy. At first, they found the idea a little odd. But, in the end, they decided to go with it anyway as they were convinced it would be a fun time…"

"Every time one of them would come, I would beat the shit out of them before injecting them with my demon energy to take full control over them. I would also beat my self up heavily to make it seem like it was working and to encourage more kids to join only for them to be defeated as well,"

"In the short span of 1 day, I was able to take full control over every single kid in the tribe, beating the shit out of all of them one by one, telling them to act like they had won and destroyed me before sending them back to tell the next person to go and meet their doom. At that moment, I felt more alive than ever before, seeing the once arrogant and proud faces of all those kids that used to beat me up and torture me every day turn into a face filled with despair, crying and grovelling on the ground, was indeed a pleasant site and filled me with immense satisfaction."

"However, that happiness and satisfaction had its limit and could not last forever…"

"While me and the kids were having our little game, the adults had went hunting and came across another tribe of demons… They both fought very vigorously causing many casualties on both sides before they backed off…"

"Out of the many casualties, my parents were one of them and my good mood was absolutely ruined and took a complete 180 degree turn. Even though I had full control of every last kid in the tribe… What was the point of victory and revenge if my parents would not be there to share in the glory, the only people that ever helped me out when I was in need"

"During the funeral, I noticed the many deadly glares of all of the adults, looking at me like I was nothing more than a dead slab of meat. I knew my parents were the only reason that I was even alive and that I did not have long to live after the funeral. So, I did not have time to properly sob and greave for their deaths as I myself was at risk of joining them very soon,"

"So, I had to act quick, later that night, I ordered the son of the tribe leader to lure his father out to a cave as he claimed to have found a rare looking item. There, all the kids that I had under my control, including his own son, sneak attacked the leader, who was barely even above the rank of a lesser demon, when they least expected, stabbing them over 50 times before they knew what even happened despite the immense strength difference, allowing me to have the chance to turn him into one of my loyal servants as well,"

"Even if he was dozens of times stronger than me, he was still powerless under my control, it made me believe that my powers had no limits, as long as I knocked them out and injected my demon energy, I would have an army of unlimited loyal demon servants that would bend to my every will…"

"That night, I had blast torturing the tribe leader for fun, watching his face of disbelief as I beat the shit out of him with him having no idea why he could not move or even speak as all the tribe children stared at the spectacle in absolute horror, once again, including the tribe leader son who could not stop screaming and begging me to let his father be which I found pretty hilarious as even when I used to beg and plead, he would do absolutely nothing,"

"I managed to get a lot of vital information out of the elder, the first of which was that they had planned to kill me the next morning in front of the entire tribe as a demonstration of what happens to weak and useless leaches like me. He also admitted that although he did not want my parents to die as they were strong warriors and important to the tribe, he was not entirely sad as he was finally going to get rid of scum like me, which led to me torturing him even harder,"

"The next day, according to my will, the clan leader decided to overturn my death sentence and leave me be for a little longer as to respect the death of my parents who were strong, proud warriors that fought for the tribe's survival and even if it would be beneficial for me to die, it would have been extremely disrespectful to them and their legacy,"

"That idea received an immense amount of scorn and ridicule from the rest of the tribe as most of them opposed to the decision. But, in the end, they agreed to it as their children seemed to have been happier than usual, probably from beating me up, the tribe's useless trash can so they decided to let me live for a few more weeks to a month at most,"

"Next, over the next 4 days, with the help of the tribe elder, I was able to lure out and take down all of the adults in the tribe with minimal trouble due to the leader's strength and authority,"

"I was then officially the leader of the entire tribe, me, the new leader, Avilia Graymore! The looks on their faces were priceless when I gathered them all up and ordered them to prostrate before me with looks of anguish and defeat on their faces,"

"If I was being honest, I wanted nothing more than to kill all of them on the spot for all that they have done to me but I fought the urge to do so in favour of ruling over them as I noticed that every time they killed something, I would receive half of all the negative power they got from killing as a bonus, making me gain strength at an incredible amount of speed with the only catch being that every time I would kill, all of them would receive an extra half of my negative power gain which was not a big deal at all and could be used to my advantage if I played my cards right …"

"Later that day, as my entire tribe was still fighting beasts while I sat back and got free "XP" I notice that my grasp on one of my subordinates was starting to slip away. That one being the lava demon kid that was the first person that I made into my servant,"

"I waited patiently until I completely lost my grip of him only to find out that I had also lost my control of him as well. When he noticed that he had his own free will again, he could not believe it as he tried his best to blend in and act naturally like he was still under my control, that sneaky bastard thought he could trick me but I was well aware of his antics,"

"So, naturally, I caught him and beat the shit out of him once more in front of the entire tribe before trying to inject him with my demon energy once again. However, to my surprise, no matter how many times I injected him, he would not bend to my will like all the other times, like he had complete immunity which was exactly the case. So, I ended up executing him swiftly to gain power for myself,"

"This made me figure out a crucial weakness in my power, I was only able to have full control over a demon for an entire week before my control period ran out. And, once a demon is injected with my demon energy once, he would grow completely immune to it if I tried it again,"

"This meant that my control over all the other kids would run out the next day which would be extremely bad as I doubted to be able to take all of them out at once. And, the day after that would be even worse as the former clan leader would snap out of my control and no doubt tear me to shreds,"

"So, I needed to kill and get rid of every single person in my entire tribe in a way that would be the most beneficial to me and give me the most power. So, after a little bit of thinking, I decided to do the best thing I could think of…"

"Later that same day, I ordered my tribe to go searching the entire area around until they spotted that same tribe that they had fought the other day only for them to find them after a few hours of searching. I then ordered my tribe to go on a full-on attack, going to war with the other tribe when they least expected it,"

"The battle was very bloody and gory, guts and organs flying everywhere as the screams of kids and adults dying in agony resounded around in the air. I of course was just waiting on the exterior of the tribe's village, spectating the entire fight from a far just enjoying the XP shower as my presence in the fight would be too risky and would not even change the final outcome by that much in the first place. I did however enjoy picking up a few rocks, chucking them at the opposing tribes in order to distract them and give my army the advantage, I even managed to get a few kill steals! Hahaha!"

"It was the perfect plan… I would be able to kill my entire tribe while at the same time killing the other one that was responsible for killing my parents,"

"In the end, they had almost completely wiped each other out, there were only 3 people left alive in my tribe, including the elder and only 4 remaining from the other. All 7 of the remaining warriors were extremely tired and injured, allowing me to go and take them out with minimal effort which was exactly what I did…"

"The last 2 warriors remaining alive were me, and the clan elder that was dying and bleeding out on the ground. So, I did him a favour by grabbing his heart and ripping it out of his body, killing him in one fell swoop as I smiled in his face like a true demon…"

"I remembered his final words clear as day, as they had only just happened yesterday…"

"W-what the fuck are you… You are a demon amongst demons… How could a little weak, useless bitch like you do all of this… If only I had the ability to move, I would squeeze your brains and tear you to shreds if I had the strength to… What kind of power do you even have! AVILIA GRAY-... Those were his last words before I ripped his heart out and separated his skull from the rest of his body using only 1 hand…"

"After I killed him, I felt an empty feeling inside my head, something I knew the exact meaning of but did not expect to happen at such a young age. Most demons would sometimes take 100s to even 1000s of years to reach that point and I managed to do it in a fraction of that time due to my ability to make many servants,"

"It was my evolution… Like you would assume, it was the most physically painful thing that I ever experienced. It was pretty much the same thing that you went through so I won't go into detail,"

"When I evolved, I unlocked a multitude of skills including the devil's hand, pure demon energy manipulation, eyes of sin, nightmare, air steps, drain, and many more that I do not want to tell you as to not spoil the fun! I want you to find them out by yourself and be able to experience their strength first hand. Plus, it's fun to see your reaction to all the fun new skills you will unlock in the future. I sure get pretty excited whenever you unlock one of your new ability skills or dragon skills! Dragons have always fascinated me!"

*Ahem*

"Anyways, I am getting a little off topic, back to the story…"

"After everyone had died, I was the only one left, so I scavenged all the houses and dead corpses, managing to find the strongest sets of armours and weapons, which in the end, what I ended up choosing was a katana, the same weapon as you and a light set of naga scale armour…"

"That was my beginning, my origin and the start of my journey as demon lord…"
