The Demon king's gaze drops to the paper on the desk. His eyes stare silently at the paper, then widen at the words "resignation" written on it.

his eyes met the white-haired, red-eyed man, "I would like to Resign" these words left the demon king speechless

"...what did you just say?" the pen in his hand broke, papers start flying in the air from the Pressure he released, the desk broke as the demon king slammed his hands down.

"How dare you...try to abandon me..?!"

before the demon king could jump up to cling to the zeroth corps commander legs, a sudden bright light engulfed his view and he started to fall unconscious...

He didn't know for how long he had passed out but when he regained consciousness he was greeted by a spectacular view.

"..what is this?" he frowned as he looked around the room, he found himself in a very spacious room, the room looked exceptionally luxurious, there was a big black box and a few couches.

"WHERE ARE WE?!"

"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?!"

Countless shouts and screams pierced through the ears of the demon king.

he then finally noticed that he wasn't alone, he could see all his corps commanders, the emperor and humans...but he couldn't care less about them, his head turned left and right but he couldn't see the zero corps commander, he couldn't see his Aurt...

~~~

the emperor grabbed his head as he opened his eyes, he looked around as he stood up. '..where am i? i was just in my office doing paper work a second ago...' the emperor's eyes widened when he met the demon king's, he then noticed that it wasn't just him and the demon king in this strange luxurious room.

"HUH?!"

"WHERE ARE WE?"

"THERE ARE DEMONS OVER THERE!!!"

"HUH? AHHH!!!!"

The shouts of both humans and demons rang through out the room. And it became really lively. But all shouts stopped when the big black box in front of them lit up.

"All Participants please calm down." A mechanical voice rang out, gathering everyone's attention.

"HUH? Where is this voice coming from...?"

"what?...the voice doesn't sound human.." Dame Lianne said as she looked around, she too was in the middle of doing something before she passed out and woke up in this room...

"they don't sound demonic ether..." Jaykar whispered to the demon king who stood next to him.

The emperor then stepped up and said in a clear voice "Who are you? are you the one that brought us here?" Eduardo frowned 'Is this one of the Demon king's tricks? but..' he looked at the demon king who was frowning while looking at the black box.. 'is the voice coming from that box..?'

"That's Right your majesty, I'm the one who brought you All here" the mechanical voice rand out again.

'they avoided the first question..' the emperor was about to ask another question when..

"Uncle- Your Majesty!" the crown prince Elpidius and the princess Allethea ran to Eduardo's side. "It's okay you don't need to greet me." the emperor said making the two siblings sigh. 'they don't seem hurt, I'm glad...'

Everyone turned around when they heard the Demon king's voice "Why did you brought us here?.." everyone then turned to look at the black box.

"I simply brought you All here to 'react' to a particular individual"

"who is that individual? and why would we react to them?" the demon king glared at the box. 'who is that person? are they that important to make the emperor and the demon king watch them?' was the question that everyone had in their minds...

"You will find out soon enough. He's a very important and valuable person in your world, but unfortunately there's no one who understands him..."

"So I'm here to help you all understand him even if it's by a tiny bit more.."

'An important and valuable...who's that person might be?..' Duke Illuster thought as he looked at the emperor and the Demon king 'there are already extremely important people here...is he more important that the emperor and the demon king..?' 

 "Is that it? and what do you benefit from this?.." Eduardo raised an eyebrow at the voice's intentions 'what do they gain from this? there must be something...' 

'...I can't see Deon anywhere here, maybe he didn't get teleported with us' Cruel eyes softened at the thought of his adorable younger brother not being here with all these dangerous humans and demons. 'I hope he's doing alright..'  

"This is all for entertaining purposes, so please don't worry I will not hurt any of you"

"Entertaining..? HAH!" the Demon king scoffed, making everyone except for the emperor to flinch. "And who are we perhaps going to entertain with our reaction? you?" 

"As entertaining as it would be to see all of your reactions, It's not only for me but also for my Dear stars (Readers)."

'..stars?' the Demon king frowned followed by the emperor 'what do they mean by stars..?' 
some people start whispering among them selves. 

"stars?"

"what do you think that means?"

"Is that a keyword to hide someone's identity??" 

"Anyways, I would like you all to take a seat. I'll leave you all for a while until you get your thoughts straight and calm down."

"there is a table full of food and snacks in the back, and the bathroom is through the right door if you need it." 

everyone turned to look behind them when they saw in the back of the room a large table that held various types of food, drinks, and snacks. some turned to the right and noticed a beautifully designed black door. 

"Bye"

Silence broke out in the room. no one dared to make a sound, Eduardo's eyes met the demon king's for the second time. everyone watched them in nervousness as the two of them had a glaring content.

Eduardo could see the demon king's lips curve upward, his frown deepened 'Is this a situation where he could smile like that?!'...

The demon king then turned to his commanders and instructed them "we should sit down for now". 

"but your majesty...we can't find demon Aurt anywhere here!" the 11th Corps Commander, Ririnell said in a shaking voice, the tears in her eyes were threatening to fall down her cheeks.

"calm down Ririnell, he must be still in the castle in the demon realm."

"Really...?!" she sniffed as her eyes sparkled

"yes, now let's sit down and wait for the voice to speak again..."

As for the emperor, he turned to the humans and instructed for all of them to sit down. 

After everyone sat down, some started chatting and some were thinking about the situation they were in and most importantly...who is that important person they are going to react to?...
