Demon Emperors
Ch.22 - Forbidden Forest
Finally they managed to kill monsters and only Brush level only went up, because the monsters were only low level of course did not provide much experience for Cyrus or Buldog.
“Huft... huft... huhhh...” Brush breath sounds heard by Cyrus, “Hahaha.... nice, stay brave even if you feel scared.” Cyrus said while patting the shoulder Brush who was adjusting his breath.
Brush was surprised to be happy because he saw his master was proud of him who had tried to dare to kill monsters, with a smiling face he said, ”Good master” said Brush.
After killing the monsters, Brush collected the valuable parts of the monsters they killed and passed them to Cyrus. “Master... This monster core, fresh meat and peel.” Brush said while handing over the precious part of the monsters.
While Brush is busy searching for a valuable part in the monster's body, Cyrus checks Brush's status because she sees Brush has levelled up.
“Qwerty, open Brush.” status Cyrus said in his heart.

Cyrus only smiled slightly when she saw Brush's status as she said in her heart, “Travel is still long, I have to give her more experience.”
After storing the precious parts of the monster corpses, Cyrus asked Qwerty to detect the existence of the monsters to level the brush faster.
They continued walking towards the forbidden forest with the help of Qwerty's detection and continuously killed low-level monsters for an entire day.
Now that Cyrus heard a lot of Qwerty sounds leveling up every time they killed a monster, they grew rapidly due to Cyrus's double experience after joining the demon soul into Cyrus' body.
It does not feel the sun starts to sink and the sky slowly becomes dark, “We rest here tonight.” Cyrus said.
Without Brush noticing during a full day of walking and fighting monsters, she did not feel tired and afraid anymore when fighting monsters of monstrous form.
This time Cyrus did not feed the Brush with warm food and drink, but they burned the meat of their hunted monsters today.
“Brush, find firewood then make a fire ungun and burn this meat.” Cyrus said while removing the monster meat from the storage bag. Then Cyrus ordered Buldog to help Cyrus because it would be very dangerous to be in the forbidden forest at night.
“Good master.” replied Brush while hurrying to find firewood according to Cyrus' orders, While Buldog followed Brush from behind.
As Brush and the buldog search for firewood, Cyrus daydreams alone and remembers Edward and Amelia who are now gone.
With a mood of sadness and loss mixed with hatred, Cyrus the demon shed her tears, hoping that this was all just a dream. But Cyrus realized this was not a dream but a bitter reality.
After a few minutes, Brush returned with a few pieces of firewood and saw Cyrus daydreaming with a sad look on his face.
Brush just kept quiet without a word as she was afraid of offending him and immediately completed the task Cyrus had given her.
When the flame began to feel warm, Cyrus realized from her daydream that had been without her realizing that Brush and Buldog were watching her daydreaming.
Silent and awkward, Brush tried to turn her attention to the meat she was burning, while Buldog just sat back and lowered his head.
The silence continued for a while and Cyrus suddenly said, “one moment I will make this planet have only one king, which is me!” said Cyrus who was staring at the fire.
Hearing Cyrus' words, Brush unintentionally said a few words. “I believe the power of the master can subdue all creatures on the planet.” Brush said while grilling meat.
Cyrus smiled slightly at Brush's words and said, “Thank you.. Brush.”.
The large brush-baked meat had now indicated that it was ripe, and Brush immediately gave the monster meat to Cyrus. “Master, here's the meat..” said Brush while giving some meat skewers.
Cyrus only took one skewer of meat, and said “Take the rest and divide it evenly with the others.” Cyrus said while eating meat.
Brush surprised and said, “But master..” Cyrus cut off Brush greeting, “Eat it.. This command!”.
Brush immediately divided the remaining meat and ate the meat Cyrus gave him. Brush was surprised that Cyrus was willing to share her warm food with a lowly slave like her.
“I will never betray even if I have to die.” Brush said in his heart while eating a piece of meat with a happy face.
“You must become a powerful Brush, be a worthy demon to continue serving me.” Cyrus said.
Brush who had originally sat on the ground, after hearing Cyrus' words, now he rushed up to Cyrus and knelt before him. “I will not disappoint master.” said Brush loudly.
“Good, I will wait when you become strong.” Cyrus said in a flat tone.

The night had passed, and Cyrus and the others continued on their way. Cyrus was happy that last night had seen the status of all of them, their levels had now increased although not by much but it was a satisfying result after a full day of fighting.

But there is one thing that makes Cyrus curious about the development of Brush, “I am still confused...why does Brush not have skills after level 20?” ask Cyrus in your heart.
[Brush needs level 50 to gain skill ]
“Ahh.. well, I have to make Brush to level 50 before 1 month.” Cyrus murmured.
As they begin to break into the middle of the forbidden forest, Cyrus orders Brush and Buldog to search for monsters with their instincts.
Cyrus trained them to be strong and to have a suitable fighting instinct. “Brush... Buldog.. go and kill monsters, I will wait for you here and monitor from afar.” Cyrus said while sitting on a tree.
“Good master.”
“Good sir.”
They both answered Cyrus' orders simultaneously. Then Cyrus continued his words, “Return before the dark sky.You are free to use your flesh and skin at will, I just need the monster core. Now go..”.
Without waiting for a long time and without refuting Cyrus' orders, the two of them went to hunt monsters together.
