DEMON QUEEN
Torments

After descending thousands of steps finally King Artur reached the innermost part of the prison of hell, heard the sound of screams from inside the prison. King Artur walked into a prison cell with a very hot temperature but had no effect on the king, king Artur's gaze focused on a girl and young man who were asking for forgiveness because they could not resist the punishment they were serving.

"How dare a despicable human like you make my successor feel hurt" said King Artur with a sinister look of eyes, appearing a pair of jet-black wings that let out smoke from King Artur's back, in addition, red horns appear, and sharp canine teeth.

Wi Xume and Wi Algi are shocked to see such a huge change in the men outside their prison, Wi Algi remembered that the man was one of the people who was by Xiao Ziya's side.

"Go away, we both never bother you" said Wi Algi who ventured to expel King Artur in his half-demon form.

There was no reply from the king who was becoming half demon, only a few terrifying roars were heard. Wi Xume could hardly breathe because of the intense pressure from King Artur, Wi Algi as much as possible to calm his little sister. Wi Algi thought that King Artur would not be able to open the door of a prison cell coated with high-level magic spells, in fact King Artur could penetrate the prison cell without having to open the prison door.

"Argh.get away from here. Go evil creatures, you don't deserve to live." triak Wi Algi who now feels what his sister feels.

"This is the right reply for you" said King Artur, he tore apart the spirits of Wi Xume and Wi Algi very cruelly. The roars of the two men were heard to the top of the prison, some demons and generals who stood guard until they got creepy to hear the screams. For hundreds of years their king has never done this, no matter what makes King Artur so angry, thought the demons who were standing guard upstairs.

"Stop, please stop. Not enough punishment that we received while living!!!." triak Wi Xume who did not want to be tortured anymore, he said, by the time of his death Xiao Ziya had already given a commensurate torment so in this realm of death he and his brother did not deserve any more punishment.

"Ahahaha, this is the hell realm. God and Goddess will not help you both." said King Artur who continues to torture the spirits of Wi Xume and Wi Algi relentlessly. Some of the other prisoners in the lower prison witnessed the demon side of King Artur, they were a little lucky because they did not get such a terrible punishment.

After hours of tormenting the two spirits, finally the spirits of Wi Algi and Wi Xume were destroyed and disappeared. The two of them will never be able to reincarnate even if their spirit fragments unite again because they do not get permission from the world of gods and the world of hell.

King Artur was satisfied with the punishment he gave, his form changed back to normal.

"It's time to return to the palace" said King Artur who disappeared from where he stood.

Elsewhere precisely in Xiao Ziya's pavilion the girl was pensively pensive in the room, she saw a star from the window. Xiao Ziya was wondering if it was too good for so many people to use it? should it start now if anyone approached Ziya directly rejected him.

"They made my head hurt" said Xiao Ziya, who was holding her head because she felt dizzy. Suddenly Xiao Ziya's body overlapped for no apparent reason, no one knew if the girl was fainting inside her pavilion.

Xiao Ziya's consciousness was suddenly pulled towards a very dark place, there was no one there but him and a large enough glass. Xiao Ziya walked closer towards the glass, he saw the reflection of his shadow that was inside the glass. For some reason Xiao Ziya felt that something was strange about the shadow, Ziya moved several times to make sure that the shadow was genuine.

"Hey stop imitating me." said Xiao Ziya with a flat face, Ziya knew from the beginning that the shadow was not his even though it could follow all the movements he did perfectly.

There was a very loud sound of laughter from within the mirror, Xiao Ziya looked at the male figure who was looking down at him. Somehow seeing the man's face made Xiao Ziya feel annoyed and wanted to break the mirror when he did not know who he was.

"Look at how beautiful my stepdaughter is" said the male figure in the mirror, slowly her faint-looking face began to become clear. He was the man who had separated Xiao Ziya with his biological mother.

"You think I'm happy to see your face?." Xiao Ziya said with a cynical look, the girl could already predict that she will meet her stepfather in the near future.

"You managed to defeat the half-eternal army of humans that I sent there." said the man with a look of dislike because his stepson was much stronger than he had imagined. If his stepson made it to the immortal human world then the position of several sons and daughters would be threatened.

"Wait for my arrival master." Xiao Ziya said with a sharp look, the girl's eyes turned blood red. Xiao Ziya gathered all of his feelings of regret, emotion, and grudge that he had buried all this time. Very quickly Xiao Ziya struck the glass before him until it broke, after the glass broke Xiao Ziya's consciousness again.

"I will make your life suffer greatly." said Xiao Ziya who just woke up from his stupor.

On the other hand the man who met Xiao Ziya through the reflection of the glass suffered a slight deep wound as a result of the blow done by Xiao Ziya.

"Come, I'll kill you with my own hands" said the man, very upset, and he immediately went to the physician in the palace to heal his wounds.

After the shocking incident that Xiao Ziya decided to sleep and replenish his energy, he needed to rest to face various problems tomorrow. Xiao Ziya laid his body on the bed and closed his eyes slowly.

Whereas in the low-level universe there was a commotion between the three mafia brothers who were sent by Xiao Ziya to become temporary leaders with some parties from the leaders of the previous generation. The leaders of the previous generation claimed that Xiao Ziya would not come to the lower level universe anymore because of the many problems Ziya was facing in the underworld so they had to make a decision as quickly as possible maybe there is no emptiness.

The three mafia brothers insisted on stepping down from their semi-post, didn't all the inhabitants of the low-level universe already agree to follow all orders from Xiao Ziya? hanz, Kenzo, and Zero will not betray their lady.

"That girl will never come back here again, what the three of you are waiting for" said Yanzuro Zee, one of the former leaders of the low-level universe.

"Maybe you are very comfortable with the position as a leader so you do not want to step down from the position?" said Anzu Zee with a sharp gaze that he directed at the three mafia brothers. Often office makes one's heart go blind, which is what Anzu Zee fears today.

"We must choose a new leader as soon as possible" said one of the ministers who urged the three mafia brothers.

"Why are you so aggressive? what are you planning!. Don't even think about shifting our lady's office" Kenzo said sternly, he would keep this leader seat until Xiao Ziya came and made a decision on how the low-level world governing system would proceed.

"It's for the good of the people of the low-level universe, lower the egos of the three of you" Yanzuro Zee said with a hostile face, although these three mafia brothers are very strong, but they do not know how to run a government.

"You're saying this is for the good of the population? then where were you when the people from the world of the immortal humans attacked? Why don't you help evacuate the population?." said Hanz with his harsh criticism, he did not like the way Yanzuro Zee spoke.

Everyone who was there was silent for a moment, if the three mafia brothers tell the population of the universe low level is most likely to occur simultaneous demonstrations in various cities it will be difficult for the government.

"Looks like they want to shift the leadership of the young lady, how do we tell this to the lady?" asked Zero anxiously, asking, he did not want Xiao Ziya's struggle all this time for the low-level universe to be in vain.

"We can gather some groups that side with the young lady" Hanz said calmly, this kind of problem will not be solved if they do not think with a cold head.

"We can ask the Yu Family for help" said Kenzo, who remembered that the Yu Family owed their young lady a debt of gratitude.

"Let's go now" said Hanz, who did not want to postpone the delay.

As soon as possible the three mafia brothers went towards the Yu Family residence, along the way no one dared to come in their way. Before long they arrived in front of the gate of the Yu Family residence, strangely the atmosphere of the house was very quiet. Usually the Yu Family residence would be very crowded by the guards this time they did not see a single guard there.

"There is something strange, you have to be more careful" said Hanz, who gave a warning to his other two brothers.

"There may be people who have come here before us." inquired Kenzo who began to be suspicious of the leaders of the previous generation, most likely the movements of the three mafia brothers were being watched by several people without them knowing.

"What should we do now? should we go inside and ascertain how the Yu Family is doing now?." asked Zero who was observing around, as he looked around accidentally Zero saw a shadow passing by from the back of the garden.

"Don't get there this is a trap for us, if we get caught here then no one will be guarding the leader's seat for the young lady." said Hanz, who asked the other two brothers not to go to the Yu Family residence.

"All right, let's go back now, lady will be here soon" said Kenzo who got into the car with his other two families.

The three mafia brothers left from the front gate of the Yu Family residence, rightly the assumption of Hanz inside the Yu Family home was that there were already several people holding back members of the Yu Family.

"Damn they don't fall into our trap" said one man with irritated eyes. This plan was very good but failed.

"Immediately call the boss, tell him that our plan failed" said another man.

Anzo Yu and his parents felt very relieved because the three mafia brothers were not easy to trap, Xiao Ziya's choice was not wrong the three of them deserved to keep the seat of government until the girl returned.

Time passed quickly the morning had arrived and Xiao Ziya had already woken up from her deep sleep. The girl was walking around the Xiao Clan to enjoy the fresh air, Xiao Ziya looked at Xiao Yan who was sweeping the front courtyard of the pavilion belonging to Xiao Ciyun.

"Good morning Gege." Xiao Ziya said to his first brother.

"For Ziya's sister, you woke up so early" said Xiao Yan, he remembered the bad habits of the younger brother who always woke up late because he was too tired to live his busy life.

"There are some things I need to take care of, I go first gege. The spirit carried out his punishment." Xiao Ziya who was mocking Xiao Yan then ran away leaving the man.

Xiao Yan shook his head at Xiao Ziya's behavior, this punishment was very light for all the mistakes he had made.

"The girl is getting older" Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.

In a few weeks, the girl will be fourteen, and she will not be in the underworld to celebrate her birthday. It was fortunate that Xiao Ziya was already used to this sort of thing, many problems he had to solve, and many mysteries that had yet to be revealed.

Xiao Ziya came out of the Xiao Clan, he went to the Qiyu Imperial Academy to meet Xiao Xun. There were some things that Xiao Ziya needed to discuss with that second brother of his, maybe Ziya would choose some academy disciples that he would invite to the low-level universe realm. Before arriving at the academy, Xiao Ziya took the time to stop by a meat noodle shop.

"Greetings to the young lady, what do you want to order?" asked a tavern maid who knew Xiao Ziya's face well.

"I want two servings of spicy meat noodles, one serving of chicken dumplings" said Xiao Ziya, who decided on what to eat this time.

"Please wait a minute, miss" said the waiter, who went to the kitchen.

Xiao Ziya saw the conditions around the tavern, although it was still too early in the morning but many customers were coming to the tavern. While being busy observing around Xiao Ziya looking at a middle-aged woman he knew, the woman was being intercepted by some bandits who had just infiltrated the Qiyu Imperial Region.

"Give me all the gold coins you have if you still want to live" said a bandit with a burly body, clutching the middle-aged woman's arm.

Xiao Ziya got up from his seat, he was extremely annoyed at such a disgusting act. If they needed money to survive they could apply for a job as a palace warrior instead of carving people. Xiao Ziya came out of the tavern and hit one of the bandits until it bounced and hit a wall of the inn.

"What are you doing, we have nothing to do with a snot boy like you" said one of the bandits who stared at Xiao Ziya.

"Hey who gave you permission to enter the territory of the Qiyu Empire" Xiao Ziya said in a cold tone. He did not like that there were bandits wandering around the Qiyu Imperial Region.

"Do we need my approval?" said the bandit chief, he did not understand why a young girl spoke so arrogantly.
