The Demon Prince's Promise

If a flower makes room for an unwanted weed, do flowers slowly die? Will the weed take over the pot? Or will they stay in harmony together? Can they promise that neither one of them will die?••"Mizuko, table 11!""Mizuko, table 7 please!""Mizuko! Table 3!"Those are the most exhausting words Mizuko hears every night at the resto she works at. She's a waitress and it's never an easy job especially when it's a busy night.Every time she picks up a tray, she sighs heavily. If she had an option, she would not work at this resto but life is harsh and cruel. If you don't work hard, you'll die of starvation."Sorry to keep you working this late, honey." Madam Vergie told Mizuko with an apologetic expression on her face."It's no problem, madam. You pay me and I work. It's how life works," she answered, flashing a smile and picking up another tray again.When the clock struck eleven, serving w

When Keisuke overcame his shock, he immediately pulled his sword out and aim at the unconscious lady in his master's arms."Yo, move the sword away! She's asleep," Kenshi moved Keisuke's sword away."Fuwa Fuwa!" Kenshi looked at his Kebano."Really? I can't quite figure which kingdom she's from." He looked at Keisuke. "Can you?""Nope.""Fuwa fuwa.""Let's ask her when she wakes up, Zed. Let's not dive to conclusions," Kenshi said and looked down at the lady again.It's a young lady, with fair skin. Her hair is long black and reaches just below her waist turning a flame orange color as it passes her elbows. She has a pretty face and long lashes which made Kenshi smile.A pretty face lady from the sky. She doesn't seem like a demon, he thought. His eyes widened, she must be from Hikari! He stared more with a plan on his head."Let's camp here tonight," Kenshi uttered. "Ah, Keisuk

Mizuko gasped, shoving away Kenshi's hand. Did the dude just really put his pinky around hers? She stares at him intensely with a disgusted look on her face."You are not to touch me without my permission!" she yells."My apologies, lady." His hands were raised. "I've no harm intended, I just want to be sure you'll commit.""Commit to what? It's not like there is somewhere I can run to here. I'd end up getting lost!"It's true. Just look at the trees up ahead of them! They are so tall, so thick and it sure is dark inside that forest, Mizuko knows."Quite accurate." He raised a side of his mouth. "But remember not to run away from me or else you'll be doomed before you know it in this land. From your clothing, I can tell you are not from around here."Oh yes, she's in somewhere she isn't familiar with. Why is she acting so calm? Well, Mizuko reads about aliens and different dimensions. She believes in anything impossible but she never actuall

The sky is painted a deep black and the surrounding would have been so dark without the light of two moons, and the twinkling of stars. She finally saw why they say it will be dark soon. It is like the sky was water and someone poured black paint, spreading from the center and down.  "What could it be with the sunrise?" she asked while turning her head to the window.  Would it be sky blue paint? But what of the clouds and sun? Would they just appear? Slowly or just as fast? "Fuwa!" Mizuko abruptly sits up, her large eyes pierced at her Kebano. "Roya! Where have you been all day? I was worried about you!"  "Fuwa Fuwa!" "Ah right!" She faintly smiles. "I can't understand you." Roya looked at her with those adorable big eyes. If only she could understand this lit

While Kenshi was gone, Mizuko heard loud cries from someone and so she decided to find out who it was coming from. To her surprise, it was from a child all alone on the pathway.  Mizuki could not leave the little one alone so she approached the child. She was looking everywhere to see if someone was coming. "Hey, there!" She awkwardly raise her hand, smiling nervously. The kid stopped crying and pouted at her, sniffling. "Wh-why are you here all alone? Where's your uhm nanny?"  "Who are you?" the little girl asked, wiping her tears with back of her hand. "A-are you a demon disguised as a human?"  "No! But what are you doing here all alone? Do you know where this is?" When the little girl shook her head side to side, Mizuko sighed. "What's your name? I'll try
