《The Demon Queen (On Hiatus)》Chapter 1: Boredom and Summoning
Advertisement
Sigh. This is some vacation. The tropical Bahamas are nice, but isn’t this really boring? Since the modern era has arrived, there isn’t much interesting stuff happening anymore. Where did my grand adventures of exploring the world go? Everything is way too easy now, airplanes and ships make travel fast and convenient. There’s no roughing the terrain or traversing the wilds anymore. The age of adventures has passed many years ago. Now, everything is fast and convenient, that’s basically the new motto of the modern world.
I wish something interesting would happen for once. This is my first vacation in a thousand years, and absolutely nothing interesting is happening. As I thought that, a weightless feeling enveloped my body. Oh? Did the gods hear me? Are they actually granting me my wish? But wait, I’m in a bikini… My face twists into a grimace. If this ends up being some kind of summoning ritual, I’m going to end up giving a weird first impression.
My body starts to become translucent, confirming my suspicions. Well, hopefully whoever summoned me isn’t a prude. A bright light engulfs my body, and the weightless feeling intensifies until suddenly my body regains its feeling of gravity. I blink my eyes rapidly to get rid of the bright spots that appeared in my vision.
Ah, it seems I was summoned somewhere weird. I was standing on a summoning circle, surrounded by people in robes. They all held a staff in hand, and had pointy hats. I’m kidding about the pointy hats, but if they had them, it wouldn’t be out of place at all. We were in a room with a high ceiling, and everything was made from marble. It was spacious, all leading up to a throne at the very back, a huge throne was a really comfortable looking red seating. Of course, someone was sitting there, someone who looked suspiciously like some high fantasy king. Standing to the right and left of him are two people on each side. Two men and two women, dressed up in outfits that wouldn’t be out of place in a fantasy RPG game.

Before I forget, it seems there are two other people who were summoned alongside me. They were dressed in modern clothing, both of them wearing jeans. The boy is wearing a graphic T-shirt with a video game character on it while the girl is wearing a nice blouse. And of course, I’m in a bikini still. Sigh. At least the other two are panicking while I’m calm. My first impression might not be that bad after all?
This is a really strange predicament I got into. The man before me that looks like a human king starts addressing the three of us.
"Welcome heroes from another world! Humanity needs your help in defeating the [Demon King]! His plans to destroy humanity must be stopped, and you are the destined heroes to defeat him!"
Or so he says. No matter what, isn't this a really weird situation? I'm a demon you know? A demon! And not just any demon either, I'm the [Demon Queen] you know?! Why was I summoned as a hero?!

Cornucopia of Hope
The graduating class of Hope's Peak Academy has been kidnapped sometime after their graduation ceremony. They wake up in a beautiful, plush mansion with no idea where they could be other than the name Our Mansion of Plenty. The physical barriers of steel plates and locked doors might not be enough to cage them, if it weren't for the malicious mechanical fairy calling itself The Fey and ruling their new lives with an iron--albeit tiny--fist. While being kidnapped is bad enough, the fact that this fairy brat is telling them to kill each other is definitely worse. Apparently, murdering one of your fellow victims is the only way to get out of this luxurious mansion. But nobody would do that...right? Cornucopia of Hope is a non-canon killing game completely alienated from the the canon universe of the Danganronpa games. The things borrowed from the games are as followed: Hope's Peak Academy, and the structure of 16ish hyper-skilled teenagers trapped in an enclosed space and being subjected to a motive, a murder, an investigation, a trial, and an execution of the presumed killer. There are no spoilers, tie ins, or previous knowledge required of the series to read this story!
