Darius' POV
Interrogation is what I need to do on her, not feeding! I felt an utterly defeat when I look myself back then.

I suspect she is among a spy that was sent by human, by meaning expose every our resources location. Is it possible or am I just overlook. Even though she was trying to kill herself,  does she know that just biting her own tongue can actually give her instant death? And that was mostly human spy will do in order to erase the information immediately.

And yet,  she was trying kill herself by starvation? That will took the days.

Her empty gaze without any hint to expose her emotion make me feel irritated, it just made me want to pinch her face and force that doll face to screw in agony!

But instead bring my hand to her cheek, I popped her mouth with my favorite Choco Mint. That's when I saw her first time change reaction, her eyes that was lifeless,  gleaming like shiny marble. I was taken back as I felt something twisting knot in my stomach, but it doesn't have same feeling of fear... What is this new feeling?

Not to mention being taken back from that smile....*shiver* it soo otherworldly sensation. I did not hate it thought.

"My Lord? " A servant voice spoke.  I look up from paperwork that I was about to stamp.

"What? "

"My Lord, it's about time to get your dinner. Would you like to serve in the hall or in this room?" The servant bow.

"...it's already night? " I secretly hiding my bafflement while looking out at window to see moon lit in the night sky. No wonder my work become lessen,  damn those lack old demon bastardized!  It supposed their job,  but I guess this is better. They might made more mistake than me.

Since it was night,  which day has past since yesterday, I wonder if that human still planning died in starvation?

" Serve me at dungeon. "

My word gave them a heart attack of course.  I'm a king, higher than any people in this castle, I can even made them serve me in the sky while having birdview. But today,  the Lord is going to have dinner in dungeon.

"Don't misunderstand my taste in choosing vanue, I simply want that girl See me eat. Let her suffer in shamfulness while holding her so call starvation to death!  Let's see if she can hold it much longer. So make sure all meal I have to eat enough to make someone drooling."

After hearing my intentions, they immediately scurried outside as they went to prepare the foods. I left my room heading outside of the castle. Although I can just use teleportation to instantly arrived to the dungeon, I decide to having a rose field view.

The roses at there as usual, magnificently beautiful as the fragrance drift in the air. A sudden reminder came over me,  last time I visited, those roses also growth around her, glowing with a hint of prism light.

There's no way nobody know, even for the young one. Those roses resemble from myth I have once heard from my parents. Legendary tale which both human and demon races adore.

The Precious one, beloved by mother nature. A legend say it was a creature that can create bountiful of everything that people would dying to have. It can be treasure of gold, rarity of herbs, miracle of phenomena that still unknown to any other creature. If one found The Precious One, if you was lucky, then it will gave you the happiness that you wish for. Slightly make The Precious One unhappy, then you will be granted misfortune every corner of your life. Because the Mother Nature would never want to make her precious child feel sadness that will taint its' light.

It was supposed to be a myth, but The Precious born few hundred years ago, instantly notice when its appeared in mystical form, nobody exactly knew what form it is, but they said the Precious one's form are so beautiful that both of the races thought they have found a new god to worship, although they want to make altar out of it, the Precious One insist its did not need a statue for itself just to prove their worthiness upon this world.

Each step its made upon the earth, leaving a trace of glowing plant or flowers along its journey. People who took the traces, use it to made medication herbs, however the people that sought to be superstitious warn them do not take anything belong Precious One as it also the friend of it.

Those people do not heed, and mostly it was human who did that. They took those treasure for granted and use it to create their own living, plowed those herb endlessly to living in lavish. In the end when Precious One notice as it hear its little friends crying in misery, its was sad that it could only cry silently upon the earth while still hearing those anguish cried. The mother nature which see her precious tear-spilled one, was anger, so angry that the world shaking violently in every corner.

Who dare made my Precious One cried?

Mother Nature, my friends is dying, I cannot do anything but cried for them. They plowed my friends so many until I can heard their misery. Please mother, make them stop, stop hurting my friend...

The tomorrow where the day turn into the night, where everybody can see Sun was devoured. That was when, those people who lives their entire life lavishly, sinking into the hell. Mother Nature allowed Hell's door open from underworld, letting the devils drag every sinner to fire hell. Burn them to ashes or letting them eaten by devil itself.

The moment the night turn into normal day again, the whole rich country that was mighty, disappear upon the earth, marking their existence to remind other creature do not mess with Precious One's happiness.

The Happiness of Precious One shall be your bless, but it will be your curse if it wept in sadness.

...... I really hope that little girl is not what I think currently. A human as Precious One?  Hah! She is not beautiful that I can stop myself to stare her,  she's hideous! 

*suddenly remember her small smile*

*Blush*

Nope! This cannot be happening!

BOOM!

Depress Girl's POV

New discovery while I'm still in the same position since yesterday, planting my cheeks on the dirt floor. The idea of having to starving myself did end up backfired me when one of the roses that crawling toward me, abruptly shove its petals into my mouth.

What savage flower!

No matter how many time I spat out those petals, more of them coming toward at me. This is unspoken funny because I was forced to eat roses like some f****ing goat. I finally have to admit defeat because I'm too tired to resist anyway. Dying is really hard to achieve...

While I was munching the petals that was given, I heard a fast footseps that coming into the dungeon. Did something happen I wonder?

"Dammit Isac! Do you have to be reckless? Now those guard seeing us and we trapped inside this whole full black castle!? This is third time I'm slamming into the wall!" A woman said hysteric way. Wow, did that really happen? My condolance to you then, as long you do not have crook nose or lost a tooth you shameful moment will not grow further.

" Okay! Fine! I'm sorry okay? I didn't know those beautiful female statues actually alive either!"

" You're pervert disease is really irritated me!"

Now I'm hearing lover argument, are they a lover I wonder?

"Come on! We need to do something!"

"This dungeon...! I know what to do!" 

I'm still munching the roses when suddenly all the roses around me abruptly move like a whip and wrapping me into cocoon shapes. Wait...I'm not a goat but a catterpillar instead!? What next? A butterfly explode from the cocoon!?

Instead that kind of explosion, another booming sound reap into my eardrum while the ground was shaking violently that I glad I lied on the ground from the beginning. 

"Be strong, my Precious One"

A/n: Please play it while you read in order to get the feeling.

Who's that..?

I felt something crushing above me, in this darkness I felt my bones is about to met each other. It;s painful, but if this will be the one who will end my life, I'm gladly accept it.

I hate being strong...because you'll only get to hurt more..

I felt the warm liquid and rust metal smell wafted in this narrow cocoon. Today is not my period day...right?

 The Demon glance behind with a pair of cold red eyes, seeing a pair of human walk out while coughing from the dust. 

"I told you stop--" A blond girl came into a view first but the stop when she saw him stood far vefore her. 

She raise her guard up as she pull out the sword on her hip, she  put her defence stance while still panic at the sight of Demon Lord. He who had no eat his dinner while enjoying to start his future torture on the girl were please. 

But then another thought coming over to him when he saw both of human actually came out from dungeon, the girl he want to torture!

The anger beneath his skull mask cannot hide as the gleaming burning crimson instantly visibly seen. The flame erupt as he let out breath of frustration, it transform him to a more demon-like feature as the black ram horn swirling with bright fearful of magma, the black claws grow as it scary enough to rip their throat open. Darius back erupt with bat wings big enough to shadow both soon-to-die humans. 

After that he looks down again but with cold glare that could send shiver from their back.

One began to fall on the ground due to his pressure that set in her heart, another male did not fall but he obviously scare to hell as his clasp hands around his sword was badly trembling.

Pathetic, Darius let out his plummed fume of annoyance. His nose manage to caught swift smell of strong rusty metal, since both of human before him were not injured....it must be belong to that doll.

The strange sensation is caging his breath, he cannot help but felt uncomfortable by the news. He suppose to not felt any feeling against a simple human...or maybe The Precious One. With that, he will let out this weird feeling by killing these humans.

"Today shall be the day, you died in this Lord's hands." He pulled something out from the thin air, a sword erupt inferno. He plan to burn them into ash before they able to even scream.

Just as he was about to release the inferno power directly to them,  the ground which at between both of different races crack violently shot out with vine of the thorny roses.

The blinding glowing roses continue to grow out upward till it brought a strange cocoon that also made from those vine. Darius held back his power as he felt sudden struck at the view, is she still alive?

Isaac and another woman also awestruck at the sudden event, seeing the cocoon slit open a bit,  it reveal a face of a sleeping maiden that also glowing like a pearl. The maiden open her eye petals to show her beautiful hauntingly diamond gaze, she shot her arms forward to pulled herself out in struggle,  she manage to pull herself till torso and limp in exhaustion.

She do have a same dress from the time she was thrown into the dungeon but except her back which strangely attach with a pair of transparent crumple sleeves.

"Living is hard... "She said while turning at the Demon Lord, but Darius only stare her deeply with a cold eyes and seem confuse by her sudden speech.

Another moment, the world again blind by the light of prism she releases as she finally out from her cocoon. Darius eyes widen at her new form as he was now viewing celestial being with a pair of huge sparkling mariposa wings.
