How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!

The first skill that she performed was the ice-based skill [Icicle Mine]. She put her hand out and a cold wind blew around her fiercely as she directed her Mana into the ground under the dummy! Before even a second, hundred of icicles burst out of the ground and pierced the dummy from under it! The icicles just kept on growing more and more until they towered more than two hundred meters over all the students! The students released loud cheers and Willow immediately looked to the examiner at the side. The man looked down at his notepad for a moment before he gave her a thumbs up! It was an S-class skill!

Willow's face brightened up and she immediately looked at Dray again! Dray's smile was even brighter than her own as he clapped along with everyone else! He couldn't believe she already had an S-class skill!! His girlfriend is awesome!

Willow still had one more test remaining, if she could get this skill to be an S-class as well, then she will become one rank higher. She immediately brought out her sword and prepared herself. She has been practicing this for a long time and she was sure that she would be able to perform it very well. She shifted her stance to the side and she slashed her sword across the air with a yell!

[Ice Burial]

Hundreds of ice spikes suddenly started to grow out of the ground! The entire space in front of Willow was covered in ice and it looked like she was making an entire forest out of ice! But before the skill could be completed, Willow suddenly felt her vision go blurry and she stumbled! Dray's eyes widened and he took a step forward, but he immediately stopped himself as he realized he couldn't go to her since they weren't even friends inside the academy!

Willow held her head and her skill deactivated immediately. She looked up with wide eyes as she immediately knew what happens. She ran out of Mana. She didn't have enough mana to finish it! She looked towards the man at the side with hopeful eyes and he shook his head sadly. She didn't pass.

Willow squeezed her hand around her sword with grit teeth and she just turned and walked away from the stage. Dray kept looking at her, but she never even looked at him. He cursed as he saw her leave the training ground and enter the school again. He won't be able to talk to her till he was also done with his test. He has to finish this fast and talk to her!

After the tests were done, Dray immediately went to look for her! He already knew that he would be an F-class so he didn't bother trying that hard at all on the test. He searched both of their classes and he even searched the other training grounds, but he didn't see her there. He finally found her in the same spot she had found him before. On a hill behind the school.

"Willow. Are you okay?"

Willow jolted once she heard his voice. She had been resting her head on her raised knees and she didn't see him coming! Dray felt his heart tighten at the empty look on her face. She hadn't been crying, Dray knew that she was stronger than that. But she was just sad that she didn't get the SS-class. She was so close.

Dray went up to stand beside her and he also looked out into the horizon. There was a bed of flowers down in the valley and it stretched for miles into the horizon. Willow finally spoke.

"I thought I finally got it. I was so close."

Willow sighed and Dray smiled sadly. She was really trying her best. Willow's family was filled with strong people and the pressure to succeed had always been intense. She has always wanted to be an SS-class and she was so close to getting there today, it was too bad that she didn't have enough Mana to get there.

"Hey, you just need a little more mana next time. Your mana is already very high, we just need to increase it more so that you can get that rank next time. You're young, Willow. You have time,"

Willow scoffed. Dray always sounded so old when he spoke like this. He was far too mature sometimes! Well, it didn't matter. He always gave her good advice. She finally smiled as she realized that what he said was true. She still had time. She decided to shift the focus to him instead.

"How about your test? How was it? F-class again?"

Dray laughed. She already knew so there was no need to even answer. But then Willow frowned and Dray felt a sweat go down his neck as she spoke.

"So I saw you looking at that minx again. Don't tell me you're finally falling into her trap,"

Dray chuckled before he leaned down and kissed her. His girlfriend is cute when she's jealous, but she didn't need to worry. He only had eyes for her!

Willow hummed in pleasure once Dray said this to her and she smiled when they broke the kiss.

"Get me some ice cream and I'll forgive you,"

Dray laughed again. Willow always wanted ice cream. He was sure it has something to do with her powers!

Dray would be getting the seal removed this month on his birthday so he would finally have his power back. He couldn't wait till then! He was tired of being so weak!

.....

In the western part of Rivalle, things went smoothly for the demon army over the next few weeks. The demon maids were all working very hard to finish up the tasks that their master gave them. After Floid came back with Rosavellt, Floid took Reginald away to the dungeons. Rosavellt had no idea what Floid did in there, but he came back bloodied and dirty. There was a sadistic smile on his face as he walked towards the bath and Rosavellt couldn't help but pity her brother.

She knew this was only the beginning. Floid kept Reginald alive because he wanted to know what Reginald was doing in the demon kingdom, but Rosavellt knew that Reginald was too stubborn to speak. At this rate, Floid would either kill Reginald or drive him mad! Surprisingly, Rosavellt didn't have anything against it.

Rosavellt already told her brother that the demon lord would kill him if Reginald was caught. She warned him to surrender and she even begged him. Reginald didn't bother to take her advice and so whatever happens to him is a consequence of his own decisions. So Rosavellt tried her best to let go of her feelings for her family.

Dracula was able to finally finish taking over the small villages and towns on the western part of Rivalle. Some towns had adventurers in them and they tried to put up a fight, but they were not able to fight against thousands of trained demons at all! They were all killed and the demons took over the towns easily! After Dracula finished the last town, Floid finally got the notification about the completion of the mission.

[You have completed the quest 'Take over all the towns on the western part of Rivalle. The rewards will be distributed now]

[New Quest]

[Lead your army in the invasion against Aquinas. Kill the king of Aquinas and take over the kingdom]

[Reward: Magic Resonance]

Once Floid saw this notification, he grinned. He was only at 800,000 MP but the system was going to give him his resonance already!! He won't miss this chance! He wanted to know what his resonance looked like so he would surely complete this mission!

The ships for the army were already being finished by Rizi. It wouldn't even take three days before she finished the last one? So Floid decided that it was time for him to carry out the final part of his plan.
