Chapter 3 - Chapter 2 – The legacy of the demon king

Something ancient start to rise in This world–not from heaven, not from

hell, but from the middle people

human beings themselves. When a monster

giant falls only in one attack, two figures standing upright in between the smoke and ruins. People even asked in amazement

"Who is kill the monster in one attack?"

"There are two people... a man and a woman."

Amidst the rubble, Kim Jung Wook whisper something to Shaara.

"Darling, we have to go. Later this shop I fix it, or I buy the new one. Now we have to quick get out of here."

Shaara held back tears,

holding his hands are tight

"But... the shop this is me waking up use your money, Darling. I never

help with anything, I just became burden

your life... I just stay At home,

bored every day. If only I were Ngg

cursed used to in the Demon World... definitely now I've already can have children from you. But the reality is, I and

Liriena can't have children for life. So at least, I I want to feel meaningful… not from this boutique, but from caring for children who have no one. Is that okay, honey…? I don't need a fancy boutique… I just want to be a mother… even if it's not biological mother."

Kim Jungwok stared his wife for a moment, then smiled soft while withhold

breath. "So, you really want to

have children, huh? If later You have

have adopted children, you still need

boutiques too?"

Shaara turned her head slowly, Then

smile sweet as usual–but there is a highlight sharp in his eyes, cold and vague threaten, like the wind who brings news death of k.

"No need. Darling. I just want to

have children... so I don't get bored Again

At home. Moreover, I want to go out

with my son... introduce him to

world, teach him the meaning of life, And

take care of him with all the heart. That

it's enough for me... as long as you don't

make me waiting too long."

He ended his sentence with a gentle smile, but with a faint aura like the shadow of death lurking behind him, making Kim Jungwok

swallowed hard and nodded quickly.

"So fast..."

"Who are they?"

"It can't be human...!"

Whispers of admiration and fear mixed become one between crowd. They can only looking up at the sky, while the figure of Kim Jungwok and Shaara has disappeared like light that unites with clouds.

No one knows Who are they Actually. But one thing surely-–mereka bukan orang biasa.

Kim Jungwok turned to his wife with a gentle expression. He took Shaara's hand for a moment, then spoke in a serious but calm tone.

"Honey, we have to part ways for now, okay? You go to Liriena's shop, I'll go find an orphan for us to care for."

Shaara looked at him, then smiled sweetly—but behind that smile was an intimidating aura that only her husband could understand. Her eyes narrowed slightly, full of meaning.

"Okay, but remember one thing. If you come home without the child… you're sleeping outside tonight," she said in a sweet tone that made the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.

Kim Jungwok could only chuckle, though cold sweat was streaming down his forehead. He then took to the streets, walking along the city sidewalks that were slowly filling up again after the incident.

He looked up at the sky and took a deep breath. His mood was uncertain.

"Where should I look for orphans now…? Even the last orphanage is empty… There isn't a single child left…"

But as he was about to continue, his eyes accidentally landed on the giant LED screen on the tall building across the street. Suddenly, his eyes widened.

"BREAKING NEWS: The 194th SSS-rank Hunter has appeared! He's only 5 years old!"

Kim Jungwok stared at the screen without blinking. A smile slowly crept across his face. His eyes glinted lit up with enthusiasm, as if he had found a rare gem he had long sought.

"Hahahahaha! This is it! This is the child who will be Shaara and Liriena's son! Even though he's only five years old, he already possesses incredible power. And… he's leveling up at the gate next to Liriena's shop! Fate It's really on my side today."

Without wasting any time, Kim Jungwok prepared to take off. However, from a distance, a girl watched him suspiciously—Kim Sangaeh.

He squinted, trying to recognize the figure more clearly.

"Wait… wasn't he the one who was at the shop earlier? What was he doing near the Rank C gate?"

But before he could move closer, Kim Jungwok had already shot away like light—so fast that even the eyes could hardly follow it.

Sangaeh froze in place, his eyes wide. His breath hitched.

"That… isn't an ordinary human… that isn't a Hunter…"

At the Rank C Gate

Kim Jungwok arrived quietly, his footsteps unheard amidst the crowd of Hunters. His eyes immediately fell on a small child who was hunting with his team. Despite his small stature, his movements were agile and precise, like a battle veteran. Without hesitation, Jungwok activated his signature technique—Demon Eye.

"His Fire Magic is extraordinary. He has great talent. He's a perfect match for our child. I'll find him a teacher."

He smiled slightly, but in his mind he was already starting to make plans for the child's future. But before he could get close, A murderous aura slowly enveloped the area. The air grew heavier, and tension hung in the air.

Several adult Hunters suddenly emerged from behind the ruins and trees surrounding the gate, their faces full of envy and greed. They stepped forward, with intentions that were clear to read for someone like Jungwok.

With a cold expression and a sharp voice that pierced the air, Jungwok opened his mouth.

"How dare you… want to hurt my future child?"

One of them tried to defend himself nervously.

"W-we didn't mean to kill him!"

But Jungwok just stared sharply, the look in his eyes seemed to bare their hearts.

"Oh really? But I can sense killing intent… Don't lie to me. Choose now: die or bow down."

There was no denying it. The oppressive aura emanating from Kim Jungwok's body rendered them unable to stand. Trembling, the Hunters knelt down, their faces pale.

"That's right… we're jealous. She's only five years old but already SSS-Rank… while we're only C or B…"

Kim Jungwok lowered his shoulders, then sighed like a father seeing stupid children playing playing with fire. He then turned gently to the little boy who was now standing still.

"Do you have parents?"

The child bowed his head oerla.

"No…"

"Want to be part of my family? Whether you save the world or not is up to you. I'll find you a teacher."

Before the child could answer, he suddenly screamed frantically.

"WATCH OUT BEHIND YOU!!"

"Dark Magic: Dark Spear!!"

A black magic spear shot towards Jungwok at high speed, but he only tilted it slightly body and avoided it as easily as a gentle breeze. The boy's eyes widened.

"Who are you really?! There's no SSS-Rank that strong!"

Kim Jungwok stared at him for a moment, then covered his face with one hand, laughing softly.

"My name is... Kim Jungwok. The Demon King. I just want to live happily.

Silence.

Everyone was silent, no one dared to make a sound. Even the wind seemed to have stopped blowing. One of them... The attacker who was watching from afar muttered in a low voice, full of fear.

"Impossible… A new Demon King will rise in a thousand years…"

Kim Jungwok snorted softly. He stepped forward and raised his hand.

"Oh really? Then, look at this."

"Nine World Exterminating Magic from the Dark Dimension!"

In that instant, the gate before them collapsed, disintegrating into a void that sucked in everything light and sound. The world seemed to be plunged into absolute darkness. Everyone who saw it was silent—unable to say anything.

"If I wanted to, this world would be destroyed. But I don't want to. Now... die in peace."

He then walked over to the little boy, slowly and calmly. He knelt down and stroked the child's head lovingly.

"Are you okay? If you get hurt, Shaara and Liriena might get angry."

The boy stared into his eyes. Even though he was the Demon King, Kim Jungwok's eyes showed no hatred, but rather genuine warmth. The child smiled slightly.

"I want to be your child… to be part of your family."

Kim Jungwok was silent for a moment. His thoughts drifted far away. He wasn't a biological father, but for the first time… he felt like he was about to become one.

"Am I going to be a father…? Even though he's not my biological child, he's our son."

He took a breath and smiled.

"Your name now is... Kim Dohyun, right?"

"Okay, Dad!"

With hands clasped together, the two of them walked away from the gate, leaving behind the ruins and The sound of battle. Kim Jungwok's heart felt warm. Now, he was not only the Demon King… but also a father.

A New Bond

They walked home along the quiet city streets, holding hands tightly like a father and son have been together for a long time. Kim Dohyun's small steps followed Kim Jungwok's sturdy steps with full enthusiasm.

On the way, Jungwok turned around with a gentle smile.

"Dohyun, do you want to be a world savior or just do a regular job?"

The little boy looked up at his new father with sparkling, eager eyes.

"I want to surpass you, Dad! That's my dream!"

Jungwok didn't answer directly. He just stared ahead, but A faint smile graced his face. In his heart, he thought:

"He doesn't know my true strength yet… But that's okay. I'll wait."

Their steps continued, merging in the warm silence that can only be understood by two souls who have just found family.

First Meeting with a New Mother

Arriving in front of the bakery, the doorbell rang softly as they entered. Shaara and Liriena, who were tidying up the bread, immediately turned around. Upon seeing who had arrived with Jungwok, they both fell silent.

A few seconds passed… then tears flowed from Shaara and Liriena's eyes.

They walked closer slowly, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing. A small child stood up beside Jungwok, holding his hand tightly, with an innocent and hopeful face.

Jungwok looked at them with calm, but meaningful eyes.

"Liriena, this is our child. Even though he's not flesh and blood, he's ours."

Shaara covered her mouth, her shoulders shaking as she held back her tears. Liriena, with gentle steps, crouched down and hugging Dohyun lovingly. Her face was shining, her eyes were filled with tears.

"Thank you, darling… for finding a child for us," she said with a happy smile, unable to hide her feelings of emotion.

Dohyun was silent at first, then slowly returned the hug could feel the warmth that had been missing in his life.

Jungwok then stroked Dohyun's head gently, like a true father who loves his child unconditionally.

"Hug your mother. Daddy is going to go find a teacher for you."

Dohyun looked at him with slightly teary eyes, then nodded.

"Okay, Dad."

While Jungwok walked out with light steps, Shaara and Liriena hugged Dohyun tightly, as if they didn't want to let him go again.

And in that humble little boutique… a new family was formed—not by blood, but by love.

In the Lair of the Fire Dragon King, Brazil

Hot mist billows in the air. The air vibrates with pure magical energy. In the midst of the Amazon jungle Partially damaged by past battles, an ancient dungeon stands—covered in layers of magma and obsidian. Not many dare approach. But today, someone came.

A figure in a black robe with a dark aura walked fearlessly through the The dungeon's edge. The lava around him hissed, but couldn't touch his body. The air suddenly became tense.

Kim Jungwok stepped into the old nest—the dwelling place of the legend: The Fire Dragon King, the ruler of the fire element from ancient times.

The sound of his footsteps echoed in the vast hall filled with flames and red-hot rocks. At the end of the room, a giant dragon with scales gleaming like hot metal, opened its fiery red eyes and straightened its body.

However, without any fear, Jungwok smiled broadly.

"Yo, Solfyrion! Long time no see!"

The dragon raised his head, taking a closer look at the guest. His eyes widened as he recognized the face before him.

"Kim Haru?! You? How is your wife?"

Kim Jungwok lowered the hood of his robe and walked closer, his dark aura muffled by the peaceful smile on his face.

"They're fine. We already have kids."

Solfyrion froze. His giant wings stopped flapping. For a moment, the entire cave fell silent, even the flames seemed to dim.

"But isn't your wife unable to get pregnant because of the curse…?"

As soon as those words were spoken, the atmosphere changed drastically.

A black, oppressive aura suddenly spread from Jungwok's body. The ground beneath him began to crack. The rocks on the ceiling crumbled, and the air became dense and suffocating. The flames around them disappeared, as if afraid of the anger boiling within the Demon King.

"Don't insult my wife."

His tone was low, but every word carried a death threat. Solfyrion, the legendary dragon who once destroyed a city out of sheer anger, is now trembling.

"I-I was just kidding! What are you doing here?" he replied quickly, his voice trembling slightly even though he was trying to sound casual.

Jungwok calmed his aura slightly. The fire reignited, and the tension dissipated, but the atmosphere remained tense.

"Train my son. His Fire Magic is great."

Solfyrion was pensive. He looked at Jungwok's eyes which were now calm, but contained a deep sense of pride towards the child. In his mind, the dragon knew… if the child could earn Kim Jungwok's recognition, then he was no ordinary child.

After a few seconds of silence, Solfyrion nodded respectfully.

"Okay. I will train him."

Jungwok crossed his arms, then nodded.

"Then… turn into a human. Otherwise, you won't be able to get out."

Solfyrion sighed softly.

"I knew I'd be asked this…"

Flames enveloped the dragon's massive body. In a blinding flash of light, the scaly body transformed—shrinking, contracting, then hardening He appears as a tall human figure with fiery red hair and glowing golden eyes. He wears a long coat and a dragon bone-shaped magic staff on his back.

"Don't expect me to wear cheap clothes like ordinary people," he muttered.

Kim Jungwok just chuckled, then turned around.

Kim Jungwok turned around, walking slowly while crossing his arms behind his back. He stared at

"Let's go out and go straight to my son's place. He's at the bakery."

Solfyrion raised an eyebrow. "Bakery?"

But he didn't have time to ask further.

In an instant, the two figures shot out of the dungeon, crossing the sky Brazil is like two flashes of black and red. The hot air was split by their power. The dust and fire in the dragon's nest were left behind, silent.

The dungeon where the Fire Dragon King had resided for centuries was now abandoned—silent and open. Meanwhile Solfyrion, now standing as a true human, looked ahead with a sharp gaze.

He was ready. Ready to train the most talented student ever.

As they were about to leave, Kim Jungwok suddenly stopped.

"This aura... has been watching. Where did it come from...?"

From behind the ruins... something began to move.

And there it was... the story of King Iblis who only wanted a peaceful life, finally began.
