DK&H: Prologue

Demon King & Hero: Prologue

TL: Eeveelutionlvr (aka Eevee)

The heavens gift talents onto people in different ways.

Some, a talent for agriculture.

Some, a talent for commerce.

Some, a talent for music. ⁽¹⁾

Some, a talent for the sword.

Some, a talent for magic.

But occasionally, the heavens grant particularly special ability to certain individuals.

An incomparable intellect, one to be called a genius.

An unfaltering resolve and determination, the willpower to continue where ordinary men would have given up a hundred times over.

An unwillingness to be arrogant about one’s own skills, continually honing their talents with diligence.

An indomitable courage, never to yield to evil in the worst of situations.

Blessed by the gods, those who forge their own paths, never yielding to evil in the worst of situations, forever fighting to prove that justice exists in the world. With words of respect and honour, people refer to them by this title.

The “Hero,” or the “Brave.” ⁽²⁾

Has it been said that kings are chosen by the heavens?

There are those who were born with the destiny to become king.

The purest darkness.

Those who rule this darkness that would swallow up the world.

Those who seek the darkness as a friend, born to swallow up the light. ⁽³⁾

Blessed by the demon god, destroying all those who seek to obstruct them, observing evil regardless of the situation.

Within the devouring darkness, the ruler of ten thousand evils.

With words of respect and honour, all ‘evil’ refer to him by this title.

The Demon King!
