The Way of a Demon Lord

Chapter 102: Epilogue *

Nine months after Adrian was admitted into the Academy- shortly after he ‘recovered’ from the ‘grave injuries’ he faced from the ‘potioneering accident.’

Afternoon.

Adrian was lying on his bed- bored.

“Tsk.” He clicked his tongue. “Seems like that bitch is not coming today. She will definitely use faculty meeting as an excuse- again.”

“Mia still thinks I am injured. She stopped coming in fear that she would lose control. Well…” A proud smile formed on his face. “I can’t blame her.”

“What can I do? What can I do?” His body squirmed, as if boredom was an ethereal entity grasping him- binding him to the bed.

“Injured…” His body suddenly relaxed. “That’s right- I was injured.” A smile creeped out on his face.

“It’s time for a medical checkup.”

******

Faculty room- the medical department.

Adrian easily found his way to the desk of the person he was searching for.

“Good afternoon, Instructor White.” He greeted.

The woman who was skimming through a script looked up, finding the voice familiar.

No sooner had her eyes met his than she gasped. She looked to her left, and then to her right. “Phew.” She sighed. Both of her neighbouring instructors were busy in their own work.

“Ahem. Good Afternoon.” She barely looked into his charming eyes.

“I am sure you have heard of my condition. I faced a mishap while concocting a potion.”

“Yes. Everyone knows about your situation. Why are you here?”

“I think my injuries are not fully gone yet. I believe I need a…” Adrian arched his back forward and rested both of his elbows on the desk, bringing his face close to that of her- very close.

“Medical checkup.” He whispered, enchanting her beautiful face with his warm breath.

The instructor shivered as her face flushed. She looked around again and sighed in relief.

“Fo… follow me.” She stood up.

Adrian stood upright as well. The smile on his face grew wider.

The busty woman who was wearing a white instructor coat over her blue slitted dress began to walk towards the door to medical room. Adrian followed in a relaxed way. They stepped into the empty room.

Just as the door shut behind, the instructor’s coat slid down to the floor.

“Brat. You finally remember me after 10 whole months.” She charged at him as pushed her mouth against his, not giving him a chance to reply. Not that he intended to.

Both of their tongues were wrestling against each other while their hands were busy removing each other’s clothes. In no time, both of them were naked.

Adrian pushed her down on top of the bed. The medical instructor was now a patient- a patient of Adrian.

“Get ready for treatment.”

Before reading any further try rereading chapter 19, 32, 34, 41, 45, 77, 91 preferably in that particular order and try to find the hints and infer how Sirius was always the heir to the Lochtear House- just a hidden one.

But if you still can’t figure it out or if you are lazy like me or you want to confirm your findings, here’s an explanation:

The princess takes on the responsibility of the Denver House, Silva House and finally the Lochtear House. Also the fact that her mother is a Lochtear.

Introduces Sirius with the black eyes.

“Interesting. It was supposed to be your job, Darling. But maybe I will give you a hand.” He muttered and smiled evilly.

It can be inferred that he belongs to one of the three mentioned families in the chapter 19 part.

This chapter showcases his ‘Martial arts.’

“What are those?” Isabella pointed at the hazel and dark potions remaining in the shelf.

“Oh, they are eye transforming potions. They change the colour of your eyes to either black or hazel. The duration depends on the amount taken.”

“Can I take the black one?”

“Tsk. Why does everyone want the black one?” The instructor gave it to her.

This makes it evident that if one has black or hazel eyes, there’s a probability that those are not natural. Especially, if it’s black.

“I have yet to approach them. Many believe that the Lochtear family is stronger than the Royal family; they just don’t care about influence and focus everything on their martial arts. Duke Lochtear is the strongest general of the kingdom for a reason- he mastered the ‘wave’ martial arts.” She sighed.

Here, ‘Martial Arts’ was used again. Note that I haven not used the term in case of other families.

“Good. You know the true identity of the boy, don’t you?”

“Yes.”

Adrian smiled. “You have a task to do then.”

Self explanatory, I guess.

Aretha Lochtear was introduced. Her eyes- blue.

Everything that I reveal in the story, no matter how much insignificant it seems, has a probability of blooming out in the future- it even might lead to something absolutely major.

I believe I have left enough hints for the readers to deduce that making Sirius a Lochtear is not something I dropped out of nowhere.

Many of you might be wondering ‘what if’ Sirius was not possessed. Well, that was actually my original plan to not have him possessed. And Adrian had his own ways of hooking the first heir of the Lochtear family to his side. But I am a Pantser. The idea of possession came to my head and… voila!

Now, let’s dive into the second volume, shall we? But not too deep of course.

The volume you just finished was my first ever work of literature, of fantasy. And I have found a few flaws myself. Firstly, my characters were plain- at least at the earlier chapters. Then, I tried to existences some meaning and make them better as characters- which probably did not fail. But I am sure I have room for improvements there and hopefully, you will find better and ‘deeper’ characters in the second volume.

Next, I recently found out that I am quite bad at dynamic descriptions a.k.a. writing action scenes. I will try my best to improve at that department as well.

If you found any other flaws in my work, please let me know. If I am proud of anything about myself, that would be my ability to learn quick.

The second volume, just like the first, will be fast paced. It might be even faster. It will be much more complex as it will not be limited to the Academy and Nemphis. Every single one of the major nations will come into play. I will not reveal much about the next arc but here are two elements that will be prominently present-

#1) War and Military

#2) Organised Crime

And of course the good ol’ sacrifice, gore, sex and most important of all- Adrianism.

Stay tuned! Unless you want to miss the mayhem that is.

Okay, now- the moment of truth. This was my first premium month aaaaand… it was sort of a flop. This month was quite bittersweet for me, bitter and sweet to be exact. The first half of it was bitter- the daily stats were poor, like really poor.

And as for the second half, boy oh boy, you guys gave me such a wonderful surprise. The stats literally soared. You made a noob like me go head to head with veteran authors and I was able to maintain equal footing.

And hopefully, I will be able to get rid of the invisible ‘flop’ tag next month.

But I am still guilty for the fact that, due to my incompetence, I wasn’t able to give my privilege readers the rebate. There’s a possibility that my book will be the top book in this month’s win-win to have not reached 1000 privilege unlocks. Sigh.

Shameless mode- on.

Anyways, this volume came to an end and so will be the month.

Support me by voting with power stones and golden tickets, and buying privilege chapters.

But even my shamelessness has its limit. In return, I will upload at least ten chapters a week and of course- MaSs ReLeAsEs.

I will publish the first chapter of the second volume tomorrow that will give you a grasp of what’s to come before taking a short break. The non privilege readers can also catch up to the volume finale in the process.

Random fact: The missing tier 4 from the seven Institute students called ‘baldy’ is none other than the bald young man whose head was cut off along with his monologue by Isabella at the very beginning of the Hunt.

Thank you everyone for reading my book and supporting me. It means a lot to a newbie like me. Hopefully, I will keep improving on the way and give you better chapters and of course- a better experience.

Feel free to ask any questions you have and as long as it is not a major mystery of sorts, you will have my answer.
