The beginning
Long ago the earth was ruled and ravaged by ruthless demons, savages that would turn all to carnage and used the world as a toy to fuel their sick twisted sadism. This was a consequence of the seal that kept Demaliam and Earth separate being broken. That fateful day shall always be remembered as the beginning of the devil’s enslavement.
“Release the seals of Dimension 2 to Dimension 5 !!!. ”
The mysterious and thundering male voice echoed across Demaliam, the home of the demons, who were now connected to Earth.
The ruler of Demaliam, Mao was simple minded, he felt no ill will towards the humans and thought it was best to befriend human beings and learn their ways; so he forbid the demons from causing any harm to the humans. However the demons had a different plan in mind, not even their own king able to inhibit their inherited sadism.
Unfortunately, the humans didn’t have any magical components circulating in their blood, meaning they were simply helpless play toys to the malicious demons.
Time passes day by day, the demons soon had full control of earth and the ruler of Demaliam, Mao was none the wiser to the treasong going on right under his own nose. As for a reason unknown to many the might king couldn’t leave his own throne and unfortunately after the last command no demon was loyal to him due to the soft nature he displayed. Everyone had decided to lie about the status on earth.
The demons took joy in not only abusing the mortals but also making them build thrones in mockery of their own king. The demons would torture and kill them for the mere enjoyment, no woman or child safe from their cruel rampage. As all of this was going on, no demon would report to the king or tell him about the pain and suffering that the humans were going through. Meanwhile he was occupied by his three wives.
More time passed, yet he was still unaware of the torture the humans were going though. Additionally two of his wives were impregnated with soon to be demons however one of his wives, a human herself, failed to be impregnated.
Time passed and the two brothers were born. The firstborn known as Satou Suzuko mostly resembles his mother with her red eyes and white hair, though the tip of his hair is black. Meanwhile the secondborn Izumo Suzuko has visible attributes of his father due to his black hair and blue eyes however the center of his head is blue with the features of his mother. Mao Suzuko had black hair with blue eyes in his human form. Due to his strong genes his sons resemble him in some way.
Ten years had passed since the birth of Satou and Izumo and no other young demons were conceived by the Queens; and the human wife was still unable to bring forth a child. In their years of living, they were taught tirelessly to fight day and night by their father under the watchful eyes of their mothers. They were fed like kings themselves, living lives of luxury but not without intense discipline.
All the while the demons continued their endless torment of the humans behind Mao’s back.
The sons were sitting down in the King and Queens’ presence when their conversation was suddenly cut short by the intrusive ring of Demaliam’s bell.
“Sons, may you check what the issue is?” Mao says while he looks at them with a proud and confident smile.
They salute him before flying off.
“Satou and Izumo!!!” a demon shouted frantically while flying full speed towards them panting and desperate to explain the situation.
“What happened to you Jiro?!” Satou questioned, curious and concerned as they watched black blood shine as it slowly flowed down Jiro’s injured arm and wings.
“I-it was a god.. he came and empowered humans with magic, his aim ….is to kill your father.” Jiro said in a panicked tone through exasperated breaths as he continued to struggle to deal with his own injury. The worry and pain shone through his eyes in a more genuine way than the brothers have ever seen. Izumo swiftly flew off without even a second of thought.
“Izumo wait! Damn it, you need to leave, go and hide somewhere or get help.” Satou ordered irritated by his brother’s recklessness, though it’s hard to blame him it’s incredibly dangerous. The moment Satou finished the sentence he swiftly followed behind Izumo.
“Wait Izumo!” he calls out again hoping his brother would slow for just a second.
Satou eventually would arrive at his fathers throne. Dread struck through his soul like lightning as he saw Izumo shaking in absolute fear, rage and confusion at the horrid sight that lay before him.
Satou turned his attention to his father’s throne where he saw a man pull a sword from his father’s chest.
“Dad!” He called out in a desperate yet fading hope his dad could be alive, when deep inside he knew his father’s life had already come to an abrupt end.
“Well, this blade is ruined, it’s covered in your father’s filthy black demon blood.” The man says with a look of disgust before staring at the brothers with a deceptively polite grin. “ Demaliam there, my name is Rukego the god who killed your father, just had to inform you because you little ones look really upset.” he said with a small laugh mocking the brothers.
Izumo and Satou stood in the doorway and the god Rukego stood by the bloody throne as the demon king laid in front of the throne bleeding out.
“Izumo, let’s kill this bastard” Satou said in a cold and serious tone, bloodlust and rage coursing through him with adrenaline and his mind filled with only one direction
Kill
Izumo nodded now consumed by the same unspeakable rage
“RRRAAAAHHHHHHH!” Izumo let out a guttural roar that shook the castle itself as his power pushed itself to the maximum, a chain with a sharp head busted out of the ground and started to target the god, Rukego.
The god looks down with pity as he raises an eyebrow and smirks “One chain? it’s a small little chain don’t make me laugh”
Rukego mocked Izumo’s intention to kill him and reached out his hand to catch the chain. However he’s caught by surprise as his hand sizzles while the chain is in his hand.
“Damn! did that chain just burn me?” He questions, confused by the pain he feels.
He dropped the chain to look at his hand. While he was distracted Satou popped out behind him from his shadow wielding a sword in hand that he swung directly at his head for his head. Rukego ducked only getting a little bit of his cyan hair cut off, he then looked down to see the ground was pitch black; he looked back to see the hair that was cut off had turned black. Seeing the black sword Satou was using made him panic as his cocky demeanor had now begun to fade. He jumped back trying to create space between him and the two brothers.
Izumo sneered at Rukego as he yelled continuing his aggressive assault “Oh no you don’t! ”
Izumo’s arms were covered with chains, coiled like a snake around his arms straight down to his waists in his hands were weights connected to the chain like a Kusari-fundo. Izumo threw one of the weights at Rukego, Rukego parried the weight with his sword so Izumo retracted his chain. Izumo squeezed the weights, causing them to turn to dust when faced with his overpowering grip. Suddenly his fists were the same material as his dark chain. Izumo sprinted towards Rukego with a ferocious series of punches. However they were easily evaded and blocked.
Rukego gritted his teeth realizing this wouldn’t be quite as easy as he thought,“This is rather irritating” he muttered
Rukego then swings up his sword causing a mountain of ice to appear completely encapsulating Izumo
Satou lets out a visceral scream in shock and concern “Ahhh!!!”
“Then this other little brat” Rukego mutters turning to Satou with an annoyed and hateful expression preparing to attack.
Satou rushed Rukego recklessly, swinging his sword in a blind fury as he’s overcome with an oppressing feeling of rage. Despite this Rukego blocked the wild swings with a taunting smile on his face. All the wild attacks started to tire out Satou as he started to breathe heavily and his hands began to shake.
Rukego smirked and returned to mocking the brother with his air of confidence returning to him ”Tired already? You started this fight, now. you got to finish it. You live by the sword you die by sword”
Rukego started to go back on the offence, his swordplay was far too strong for Satou as he started to struggle to keep up.
Rukego laughed at the brother as he looked down with a vile arrogant grin, “ What’s with the serious face? Is it because we’re fighting with your dead father right there or is it because you know that you’re next!”
However interrupting their attempt at a fight was the sudden sound of ice cracking which caught Rukego’s attention, he looked back at the mountain of ice he encaged Izumo in to see that it began to crack.
Rukego was shocked and worried as he could only stare nervously ”Huh!?”
Completely catching Rukego off guard, Izumo broke his way out of the ice. As he let out a loud guttural battle cry that reverberated through demaliam with a bloodlust and rage unseen to demon and god alike; the very presence of the intense rage present within the two boys loomed over Rukego like a mountain as Rukego’s insulting smile faded. Now he became wary that his life may very well be at stake.
Izumo’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Rukego with a piercing bloodlusted stare and an expression of which would make the harshest demon cower. He shouted from the very bottom of his heart a phrase with more truth than any honest man has ever expressed,
“I WILL KILL YOU!”
He screamed with an aura of which caused Rukego to shake from his very soul as he was faced with an oppressing aura of which he would not expect of the demon king himself, and for the first time ever, by just a simple phrase, he felt death.
Izumo broke his way out of the ice and charged at Rukego preparing to absolutely crush him with a single punch.
“Huh What the…” Izumo said, confused, in between Rukego’s face and Izumo’s fist was a mysterious door.
“ Izumo watch out!!” Satou shouted, Izumo retreated from Rukego and the mysterious door.
Rukego appears to apologize to someone “I’m so sorry I got carried away “ He says oddly humbly
A mysterious unidentifiable voice echoed through the doorway “ They’re children Rukego I’m disappointed in you. Come, your job is done”
The deep mystery voice came from the door, it opened inwards when fully opened the inside looked like infinite space.
Izumo said one last thing to Rukego as he retreated. “You can run back to wherever you came from, but I swear to you , we will find you, and we will destory you.”
Satou and Izumo’s facial expressions were full of incredible rage, anger and determination.
Rukego now no longer in danger laughed “Hahahahahahaha!!, you really think that you two are going survive, well if you do I promise you I’ll gladly kill you myself” He taunted them playfully,
Rukego looked them in the eyes and smiled like their threat was just a joke, he then walked into the open door which promptly closed and disappeared.
The following war was composed of countless bloodshed for both the humans and the demons. The humans came out victorious. Though it seems unrealistic, the element of surprise was the key to the humans’ victory.
The world started to change that day, islands diverted the ocean as they rose out of nowhere and entirely new life was found speaks, demi-humans, familiar spirits, elves, and even new species of animals and plants.
The sudden appearance of one God blessing the humans with magic and much more. Years have passed since the development of magic was studied. Magic makes its appearances in a person at the age of ten, but it starts to develop from the time you are born.
Your magic is determined by how you lived your life until the age of ten, so your surroundings had a great affect; if you lived in windy area for most of your life you may be able to conjure wind, a tragic experience in your life if you almost drowned your chances of being able to conjure water may be high or magical genes. Magic can be passed down for generations by genes chances of that are fifty-fifty. The studies continued and the scientists decided to call the unnatural phenomenon occurring in a beings’ body their secret-art.
Additionally two people can’t have the same secret-art , if two people have the same secret-arts, they must be relatives, or you have blessed/cursed art what this means is that you were blessed with specific magic from the time you were born but you’re cursed with a magic doppelganger a demon with the same magic as you. The mere fact that you exist means you will be hunted down by your doppelganger.
Even now the demons still lurk around the earth. Some demons have different appearances but not human-like appearances. These types of demon are considered class C and lower to Class E. Class S,A,B have human appearances and the worst class to face is the class called Tricky Threat these type of demons have the skills to put the nation and its people in danger.
Some of them still attack humans for reasons such as revenge or for their own personal enjoyment, others gave up and sided with humans, they are called betrayers and hunted from their own kind. Some demons can’t disguise themselves as humans; they don’t have as much intelligence either, so humans will be their enemy forever.
The executioners were created for this, it is a job for brave individuals who would protect the people from demons and other harms that will come. Years passed and executioners started to begin a famous job worldwide, so schools were created to help bring up the best executioners to walk the face of the earth.
We are unaware of what happened when he arrived or what he did to give the humans magical abilities. I am sure if they had just listened to my father when he said don’t harm the humans, he wouldn’t be dead, that is why we’ll kill them if we must.
I’m Satou Suzuko, the idiot next to me is my brother Izumo Suzuko and the girl by the door yelling at me is Nishika Hoshiga her story is different than ours, but my brother and I’s goal is to avenge our father no matter what. This is the beginning of the story we call Demon Uprising.
