The kingdom of pagie, a rather peaceful placed ruled by one of the strongest demon lords.

M'lady ' Zyla

A place in which monsters of all races can live together. From sea monsters, to land monsters, and even sky monsters. It's one of the biggest nations to exist, but it's protected in a secret area.

For an average low level demon they would see nothing but a forest and mountains. But for a high level monster they can sense the protective Barrier, that holds an illusion.

Zyla the queen of this nation makes sure her citizens are well protected. She is the third oldest and strongest demon lord behind demon lord gii and milim. (Gii Crimson- guy crimson)

The sun was just reaching its peak in the sky as the monsters residing in the barrier began their lives. However in the castle fast footsteps rang through the halls as a certain monster marched his way down the halls.

"Good morning, my queen." Reiki greeted her as he entered her room. She still laid in her bed that was hanging from the ceiling. "I have come here with an important matter." He walked in under the bed and to the large arched floor to ceiling window where he pulled back the drapes.

Zyla rolled over with a groan rubbing her eyes. She side eyed the demon that was awakening her. Reiki was a demon that was on the brink of death, before Zyla saved him. She gave him a body but you would not be able to tell he is a demon since it's the form of a human.

Reiki body was the size of an average full grown human man. But he had somewhat long brown silky hair. His eyes were a different story, while one was completely normal the other that he insists on hiding was red, with that eye he unlocks his true power.

"What is it reiki?" Zyla muttered as she lifted her covers and flew behind a divider that hid her bathroom from the rest of the room.

Reiki turned to see a handmaid walk in with a pile of clothes and he took them dismissing her. "Demon lord Clayman has arrived to the kingdom and is waiting to meet with you." He informed.

Zyla stuck her head out from behind the divider, nothing but pure confusion on her face. "What is he doing here?" She looked at Reiki.

"Apparently he has urgent news to deliver." Reiki held out clothes for the demon lord since she was only in her robe.

He panicked however when he saw her heading straight for the door still in her robe. "What's so important that his high and mighty ass came all the way here to tell me." She opened the door flying out.

"M'lady! Wait your clothes!" Reiki chased after the woman who ignored him she flew into the throne room and signaled the guards to open the door.

By the time reiki had enter the throne room. Zyla was already seated in her throne comfortably yawning. He let out a huff since it wasn't no time for her to change because the doors were opening.

"I, now present demon lord Clayman." One of the guards announced, bowing her head at him.

Clayman walked in, looking around the room with his hands behind his back. "My, Zyla what a welcoming party." He commented with a hint of sarcasm noticing the room.

Nobody was lined up perfect waiting and watching his every move. He identified her strongest just by the small aura they are admitting. He looked to his left to see Vera, laying around at the bottom of the steps near the throne.

When he looked up above the throne Teca was hanging upside down with her wings covering her body. Lastly Reiki stood to the right of her with a hand rested on his hilt.

Zyla let out a scuff. "It's lord Zyla, to you." She commented as he stopped at the bottom of the step near Vera, who had her eyes closed and tail covering her face. "I didn't expect any visitors."

"Yes it seems. Since you are only in your robe, but I can't complain since this is the most clothes I've seen you wear." He blurted.

"Watch it." Reiki glared at him, his powerful aura causing the ground around him to crack.

"Reiki, relax. Don't waste your energy on this.. creature."Zyla said the disgusted tone lay heavy as she spoke. "Now, Clay. If your intimidated by my beauty then just say that."

"Demon lord Clayman to you." He spoke. "Also, your workers, what exactly are they? I can't help but wonder." He let his eyes roam around the palace.

Zyla looked at her workers. What more was to say, they were strange and magnificent creatures. But they were exactly what they looked like. Cookie spirts. The had the ability to regenerate, if they would accidentally break something.

"I know you didn't come all the way here to ask about my workers. And I can call you whatever I want vampire freak." She spoke. "Now what do you want?" Her annoyance filled the air showing she was not in the mood for games.

Clayman let out a little laugh, as he reached in his pocket. "You are right. I came here to make a proposal." He held out a gift. "I would like to give you this gift as a token to you as a sign of our agreement."

"For what." Zyla eyed him, she was always weary of the guy. She didn't like him to say, plus he wasn't attractive enough to be a demon lord, like the rest. "Reiki."

The demon nodded disappearing in the shadows, coming out only to snatch the gift and return it back to his queen. "I say we throw it. Could be something dangerous."

Reiki opened the box and inside was a bracelet. But also a potion, she snapped her fingers and reiki closed the box immediately. "I don't want it. I'm not a big fan of gifts." She lied.

"But, Zyla-"

"Lord Zyla to you. As you know already I am of higher authority then you. You are just a mere demon lord that hasn't awaken his true power yet." She leaned her head against her hand. "Now If you came all this way and woke me up for this, then it was nothing but a waste of my time."

"Lord Zyla. Don't be incompetent. You know it's against the rules to go against other demon lords." Clayman spoke back.

Zyla stood up from her throne Causing everyone to go alert. "I never threatened you have i? You showed up here for such a stupid reason." She began to walk down the stairs. "Now Clayman, you can either leave while you still have your freedom and legs, or I kill you. Im sure the others would understand." She smiled at him.

"What's it going to be? Claymore." Was Zyla's last words as she ran a finger along his jaw before her aura began to release. The aura alone was strong and extremely intimidating. It would make anyone fall to their knees.

Clayman felt his body stiffen as well the air around him became restricted. He knew higher level demon lords were powerful but right now he felt fear, slightly. It felt as if her aura could burn him to death.

"My apologies, M'lady for wasting your time I will take my leave." He struggled to bow, Zyla concealed her aura again allowing him to breath. He turned to walk away.

"Clayman, I'll give you a heads up." She began to hover off the ground heading back to her throne. With a snap of her fingers the gift he gave her was gone. "If you try that mind control of yours again, I won't hesitate to remove your pesky existence from the world."

He continued his walk, allowing the gargoyle monsters to open the door for him. Zyla sat back down on her throne crossing her legs over each other.

"No hard feelings right, Clayman?" Zyla sounded so innocent as if she didn't almost destroy the whole building with her menacing aura.

"Besides, I'd be doing us all a favor of personally disposing of you." Was the last thing Clayman heard the woman speak before the doors shut on him.

"Kneel." Zyla's stern voice held nothing but annoyance. Her three most trusted kneeled in front of her as she looked down at them."Never allow him to step foot in my kingdom again. Understand." She demanded.

"Yes ma'am." Teca, Vera, and Reiki all responded in unison nodding their heads.

"Good. Now, let's go. I want to take a trip somewhere." Zyla smiled with a sigh then flew past the three.

"M'lady! Wait you aren't wearing proper clothes!" Reiki panicked as Vera and Teca let out laughs.
