8. Are You A Demon?

God Archer, The Emperor who was currently in his reading room, suddenly put down the scroll he had read earlier.

The Archer God could feel the deep sadness Aranjo felt. When he received the Demon King's request to be involved in the baby's growing up, he placed a little magic power on the baby. And the magic will tell him when the baby is threatened, angry or sad.

500 years have passed and this is the first time he has accepted the baby's feelings. The emperor rose from his seat and went to the place where Aranjo was with his magic power.

Returning to the mist forest, Aranjo wiped away his tears and again examined the state of the bird. Aranjo gives his meager magic power to the little bird, hoping that it can survive. And sure enough, after receiving his magic power the little bird opened his little eyes and looked at Aranjo.

"You okay?" Aranjo asked excitedly. Her sadness was distracted when he saw that the little bird was already better.

The emperor arrived in the fog forest, what happened to Aranjo? The Emperor knew the child was not well received within the night God family, yet that was not the right reason to send the child into the mist forest.

Aranjo looked at him, and for a moment Aranjo was silent as if she was thinking aloud.

"Are you a demon?" asked Aranjo innocently.

Right now before her stood an astonishing figure, unlike the gods he used to see in the celestial realm. The figure was very beautiful, the face was perfectly sculpted and what attracted Aranjo the most was the color of the figure's hair which he had never seen before.

A tall figure with a perfectly sculpted face and long gray hair and a tall body was dressed in luxurious clothes in Pitch Black.

"I am not a demon!" replied the figure.

Even his voice was very melodious, making Aranjo feel calm.

The emperor saw clearly the aura surrounding Aranjo's tiny body, a yellow aura a sign of low magic power.

However, what caught his attention were the other colors that framed the yellow aura. There is a reddish gold colored refraction framing the aura.

The emperor could see how the baby grew into a beautiful child with a thick seductive aura. The child's gaze can make those who look at her feel affection for her and her smile can make those who see her give up everything for him.

The emperor could not predict the future of the child and this was the first time for him.

"If so, who are you?" asked Aranjo back.

The Emperor replied, "Your friend."

Aranjo's eyes lit up, when she heard the word friend. During this time she had no friends at all, no one dared to see her let alone become her friend.

"Are you sure? You know they usually avoid me because they say I'm the daughter of the devil!" said Aranjo, she doesn't want her new friend to get into trouble.

"Sure!" replied the Emperor. Then with his magic power, a sizable peach appeared above the emperor's grasp. The emperor stretched out his hand holding a peach before Aranjo.

"That for me?" asked Aranjo while gazing questioningly at the Emperor. Aranjo never accepts gifts from anyone other than her caregiver, Ara.

The emperor nodded, then Aranjo took the fruit. The little bird wrapped in her black veil was on the lap. Aranjo split the peach into several pieces, although she was very thirsty and hungry, but the first piece Aranjo gave to the little bird.

The little bird ate it with gusto, Aranjo was happy to see the bird recover. Then the second piece, Aranjo gave to the Emperor.

"It's so delicious! You should eat it too!" Aranjo said when she saw the figure did not receive the pieces of fruit she gave.

The emperor accepted the piece of fruit, but did not eat it and he removed it using magic.

After giving the pieces of fruit to her friends, Aranjo ate the rest of the fruit.

"If you are my friend, doesn't that mean you are also a friend of this little bird?" asked Aranjo with a mouth full of fruit.

The emperor looked at the little bird above his lap and nodded softly.

"Can you give him a little strength? He was very weak, I had given him my strength but not too much influence," said Aranjo.

The emperor gave a little of his strength to the bird. The little bird flapped its wings and started flying around Aranjo. Aranjo got up from her seat and was very happy to see that the little bird had recovered.

The little power of the Emperor certainly exerted a very strong influence. Not many were lucky enough to have the opportunity to receive the magic power of the Emperor.

After several flights around Aranjo, the little bird flew to the emperor, as if to say thank you.

"Make sure you return the girl's kind favor!" the Emperor said as the little bird flew in front of him.

The little bird flew around the Emperor and then flew away leaving them.

Griffin, that's what the little bird was called. Eagle bird with lion body which is a spirit animal living in the fog forest.

The Griffin will be born from the land of the fog forest full of precious metals and stones. Metals and precious stones in the celestial realm are certainly different from those in other realms.

If the use of precious stones and metals in other realms to transact but does not exist in the celestial realm, it can give magic power to those who find it.

There will be only one Griffin born in the place of his dead predecessor. And the bird appears to have been born in this fog forest land.

"Wow ... your strength is really great!" said Aranjo, amazed. Seeing how the little bird was able to fly immediately after receiving power from the figure.

The emperor saw clearly the wound on Aranjo's leg, then gave his magic to Aranjo.

Instantly, Aranjo felt her body become stronger and slowly the injuries on her legs disappeared. Not having time to say thank you, Aranjo felt her eyes getting very heavy and finally fell asleep.

"Get some rest! And tomorrow you will return to the pavilion, when you wake up!" said the Emperor, still giving his magic to Aranjo.

The future of Aranjo is not simple, it is clear how a new soul mate is formed between Griffin and him. The Griffins were the oldest spirit birds born in the sky realm. Those legendary birds had never appeared before any creature.

The emperor bestowed a little magical power on Aranjo, whose body was frail, and he himself put the child to sleep.That will help Aranjo's body recover.

The next day, Aranjo woke up and her eyes opened slowly. For a moment, Aranjo watched the situation around her.

"Aranjo ..." The voice of Ara calling to herself is heard clearly.

"Ara ... "Aranjo said while staring at the nanny.

Ara hugged her body tightly, this morning when she woke up Aranjo was by her side. They always sleep together in this little bed.

Ara did not dare to touch Aranjo because the girl's body was protected by powerful magic. And when Aranjo woke up, the magic disappeared. Ara is not sure what happened to Aranjo, she will ask later.
