XIKESH

In the outskirts of a magnificent forest stands a lone wooden cottage, it is surrounded by vibrant and beautiful flowers. It's inhabitans, a handsome man of dignified figure and a beautiful woman with pointed ears were currently engaged in conversation."Will you be alright today, my dearest?" Aerin cups my face and gives me a worried smile.
"Of course." I reply. There was absolutely nothing for me to worry about when it came to safety and concerns. The forest beside us was peaceful and not many traveled to this location either... and not to mention what I was, was enough to intimidate even armies.
"I know what you're thinking, how can I concern myself over such a powerful, strond and handsome husband-but I still can't help but worry..." Aerin's brows furrowed a little, before she grinned. "That you might miss your wonderful and beautiful wife."
"Then you can stay home todoay insteazd of going to the tower." I smirk.
Aerin Tira rolls her eyes then plants a soft kiss on my nose. "You know how neccessary it is for me to attend to my matters as the Archmage. I will be seeing you later instead."
"I'll be looking forward to that."
"If you are, would you make me my favorite dinner?"
"Ah, you want me to go to the forest to collect wild-spotted mushrooms?"
"Perhaps~ But having you home once I come back is also enough."
"Then come back as soon you can." I tell her before the two of us properly bade each other goodbye. I smile and wave back before she finally disappeared through a teleportation spell.A smile adorns my face for a moment, a hint of disbelief mixed with it until this very day. It was incredible to think that a demon like me, someone who had known bloodshed and war for a great part of his life, someone who had seen his brethren live and die by their weapons and powers, would find himself in the companion of a loving wife in a humble abode. Even more so that I had found Aerin during the great war and instead of fighting each other to the death, we have sought out for peace instead.
I... Xikesh was fortunate.
Even if it meant that I had to don a human disguise due to the inability of the residents of Crownwell to trust a demon of my rank until this very day, wary as they were, and with others after my head, I was living a far more outstanding life than what I could have possibly imagined. While I could have been a powerful leader of my kind, my status of a highborn demon granting me the opportunity, I couldn't even fathom anything else but this life. But this was enough reminiscing, I had a whole day ahead of me.Today I could go to the forest and explore a little, perhaps find mushrooms that my wife desired or I could also go to the city of Crownwell for a change.
