Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

Hujarar floated in space in front of a planet as he sang a song. The song was of the sea, and a creature everyone was familiar with. If anyone heard the song, they’d remember their childhood and smile.

“Baby shark, do do do. Baby shark do do do.”

Hujarar pointed at the planet. “Do do do.”

Three tiny black holes shot towards the planet. The black holes merged, and then sucked its way into the core. The planet then was absorbed from the inside. The tectonic plates of the planet fell into the abyss. The continents cracked. Earthquakes of great power shook every being that call the gigantic orb home.

“That should be my last planet to destroy,” Hujarar said. A black hole appeared and engulfed him before it disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was in front of a galaxy-sized castle. He floated towards the castle and then entered through the front door. Walking through the hallway, Hujarar found the room he was looking for.

He kicked the door. The door got ripped from the frame and was thrown forward. “Zustus! I am done with the mission.”

When Hujarar entered, he saw the old man was hugging a young, naked woman with a pair of white wings on her back.

The woman slapped the old man, covered herself with the bed spray, and ran off.

“Wait, Alexa. Damnit! Can’t you find the right time? Or at least knock before you get in?”

Hujarar shrugged. “Whatever. I am done with the mission. I want to go back and see my kid.”

The old man looked at him. “I don’t think that’s possible.”

“Oy, are you planning to cheat me? I destroy all the heretics in four universes for every millennium, isn’t that enough? Not to mention I have to act as a villain.”

“It wasn’t that I want to cheat you. Everyone, show yourselves.”

A thousand divine beings appeared. Their whole body glowed in bright light.

He glanced at the old man. His eyes turned deep dark. “Are you planning to kill me?”

The old man stared back. He stood up from his bed. “No. We found something or someone powerful. And it threatened our dimension.” 𝑖.𝑐ℴ𝑚

“Dimension?”

The old man nodded. “He came from the fourth dimension. We know his power. That is why I can gather all one thousand gods for this.”

Hujarar nodded. During his war against the gods, it was only one hundred of them who actively fought against him. The rest were doing nothing but chill.

“You all can solve this problem by yourselves. I don’t want to be involved in this.” Hujarar turned around and walked to leave the room.

“He conquered the fourth dimension,” the old man said, making Hujarar stop on his feet. “With that power, he can easily conquer our dimension as well. Think of your son, Hujarar. He won’t survive with his measly power.”

Hujarar clicked his tongue. “Fighting something like that is tricky. We cannot use our full power.”

“You are correct. But there is a way,”

Hujarar turned around and looked at the old man in the eye. “How?”

…

Eve and Dina rode a gigantic space worm that was currently eating through the countless stars and planets in the galaxy. They were sitting on a chair with two cups of tea sitting on the table.

“I cannot wait to meet Aldred,” Dina said, sighing. She looked at her mother who was in a daze. “Why did you let him fall off the castle?”

Eve took a sip of her tea. “Hujarar and I believed that we spoiled Aldred too much. At the age of seven, he should have already conquered thirty floors of hell or a few galaxies, but he was still the little Aldred who ran around in the castle.”

Dina slapped her own face. “Just because of that? Who cares about thirty floor of hell or galaxies? Don’t you want Aldred to be happy?”

Eve looked down. “Maybe you are right. But won’t we be at fault for putting a stop sign in front of his talent? He won’t fly properly if I don’t throw him in the air. He has to learn how to fly.”

Dina couldn’t answer to that. Her mother was correct. Yes, they were powerful enough to spoil him, but was that the right choice? Spoiling Aldred meant that they were preventing Aldred from standing on his own, and achieving his true potential.

Eve raised the teacup. Just as she was about to take a sip, her heart thumped. She widened her eyes and stood up.

Dina looked at her. “What happen mom?”

Eve did not say anything. She waved her hand, and they teleported in front of a galaxy-sized castle. It was in ruins. All the buildings and structures became rubbles.

“Isn’t this the home of that old pervert?” Dina looked around the castle.

Eve didn’t reply and floated towards the castle. Her heart thumped even harder. She rushed in towards the hallway and entered a room. What she saw shocked her to the core.

Her heart beat like never before. Her whole body trembled as her eyes filled with disbelief. Grief and sadness washed over her.

“No! Hujarar!” She ran and knelt beside her husband. Tears streaked to her cheeks. “How is this possible? You are supposed to be immortal.” She hugged him and cried.

Dina saw the scene and felt her heart ached. She ran to Hujarar with tears on her eyes. She took a good look at her father. The once lively face full of smile and humorous remarks were now still as stone. 𝘳𝑎.𝒸ℴ

She gritted her teeth and shook her head. She couldn’t believe this. Not in a millennium year. They were supposed to be together forever. They just had Aldred for ten short years. Their dreams finally came true. Yet, why. Why did this happen?

Tears streamed down. She looked to the side and noticed something. She stood up and approached it. It was the old man Zustus. Her eyes moved a few meters away and there was another god lying on the floor, death.

Dina frowned and looked around the room. There were dead bodies. And not ordinary dead bodies, but gods. “They all died. Did they fight against dad?”

Eve stood up still in tears. Her eyes turned crimson. “No. They killed themselves.”

Dina still trembling looked at her mother. “Kill themselves? Why?”

Eve beckoned for her lifeless husband to float. She caressed his cheek. “I don’t know. Your father did the same thing.”

“Father?” Dina was shocked. She didn’t care about the other gods, but why did her father kill himself as well? This did not make any sense.

A letter fell from Hujarar’s pocket. The letter floated and Eve willed it to open:

Eve, I cannot say much because the more you know the less likely I can return. All I can say is that I am going somewhere to fight a danger that can harm our family. Tell Dina and Aldred I am on a work trip oversea. Anyway, I won’t forget about you and our family. I still have your picture on my phone. I will be sure to stare at it at least six to eight hours a day. I’m sorry that I have to leave so suddenly, but it has to be done. Zustus showed me something I cannot ignore. I don’t know when I will be back, and I am not sure if I can even return, but I hope you can put a smile on our family even without me by your side. Please be strong Eve. For Aldred. For Dina. And for me. I love you since the first day I meet you, and I will forever love you even after I die. Goodbye, Eve.

-Hujarar, your favorite husband

PS: I left something for Aldred to help him become stronger. I know we make a hard choice in leaving him alone and making him experience the dark truth of the world, but I believe we made the right choice.

Eve took a deep breath after she finished reading the paper.

“Mom, what is in that letter?”

Eve handed the letter to her. She looked at her husband with longing eyes. ‘You always did everything by yourself. Why can’t you bring me with you? I am sure if we work together as a family we will pass through any hurdle, but you keep all the burden on yourself.’

Dina finished reading the letter and approached her mother. “Mom, what should we do now?”

Suddenly, the castle trembled. Hujarar’s body was engulfed by dark mist and then disappeared. The gods’ bodies were engulfed by white light and vanished as well. The ceiling fell and then crumbled into dust. Eventually, the whole castle disappeared.

A divine goddess floated down. It was Zustus’ wife. “You already know?”

Eve nodded.

The goddess sighed. “Zustus might be a pervert and a cheater, but I hope he returns soon.” She disappeared.

Eve turned and looked at her daughter. “Let’s go back.”
