KURAGARI

When I was born, it was at midnight. It was a night of pure darkness, and with it came darkness itself. It was said that everyone who helped my mother in birthing me all died by my hands. A newborn with such terrifying power, one look was all it took to kill. From the time I was born , I was unable to control these eyes of mine. All demons feared me, and even the primordial demons never got close. I was a primordial demon, but in their eyes, including my family's, I was a monster.

Many people wanted me dead but were too scared to try. The number of people that would die by me increased as my power grew . At the age of 5, I mistakenly killed my own brother. That was the day I decided to never use those eyes of mine again. With that, I shut myself away . I studied different types of magic. Anything was good enough. From a simple spell of changing and manifesting clothing to shapeshifting, I learned it all. After hundreds of years, they long forgot my power and started calling me the weakest primordial demon. 

Only the higher-ups knew , but with their pride, why would they lower themselves ? To cultivate conceptual power as primordial demons, they would find powerful mates. If they can't find one that's strong enough, then multiple would make up for that power. As a result, their power grew more and more. The demon race was the strongest, holding power that can shake a universe. Having powers to control time, space, manipulate fate as well as blood manipulation. They set their sights on conquering all. I hated the idea of acting like the primitive whores they were, so I remained the same.

Without using my innate ability, I was harder to fight. Nevertheless, the demons won and took over countless worlds. Many were filled with beasts and monsters, so I was easy to conquer. With so much going on and the world changing as time passed, I remained alone. When there were no worlds to conquer, the demons fought among themselves. Interestingly enough, they stayed away from my house. For a long time, I felt emptiness. That's when I decided to try and make a clone of myself so I would have someone to talk to.

After developing and perfecting the spell, my self and I would talk to each other, play games, and have a childhood we never had. One of us suggested we master my true power, so with nothing to lose for the first time. My true power is related to illusions and mind manipulation. As a child, having pure emotion untainted by any biases, if I so much as looked at someone and felt they looked scary, I could drive them to insanity to the point where their brain would kill itself. By the time I was almost done mastering that power, the demon king ordered me to go and investigate along with a few others. There was a crack in the demon realm to a world unknown. His reason was that staying in for too long was not good for my health.     

What he meant was that I was slacking off and being useless. So I had no choice but to go. That realm was a realm with mortals. We called it the human realm as there were mostly humans there. It was far more beautiful than the demon realm. I felt that place to be far better and grew to love the vast scenery and the different food they had to offer. But soon I found out that they hated demons. Even without meeting one, they hated them. Killing people who are weaker is not fun, but if they try to kill me, I must defend myself.

The demon king had an interest in this world after hearing about it, so the war known as The Great War began . It started when the elves were at war with the humans, and then the beastmen joined in. Humans wanted more land, as always. They wanted to control the other races. The demon king struck while the iron was hot, resulting in everyone losing except the demons. The beastmen suffered the most, which is why they are not around nowadays, with only their descendants, the Nekomimi , still remaining. But that united the world to fight.

I happened to come across Silvaren. Unlike the others, he was the first elf I had faced. He was different. We fought, but he tried to understand me. Blow for blow, we argued and fought. Soon, we found ourselves sitting and talking. He was understanding and saw me for the person I was and not a demon. He became the little brother I never had. With that, I betrayed the demons and made a deal with him that if I could help the hero seal the other demons and trap them, as well as help the elves with his plan, I would have a place in his house where I was free to do as I pleased .

My life was much better, but I was still empty ; I had no one. Silvaren made a joke, saying, "Why don't you fall for the person who is able to beat him in a fight ?" That stuck with me, and after so long, that's when he came. Rukito beat him and moved my heart. At first, it was just a feeling, but the more time I spent with him, the deeper I fell. I want him to achieve his goals, so for him, I will give it my all to protect him.

The fight continues with Kuragari keeping Lloyd at bay . While they were fighting, more soldiers came to attack Rukito. With no one there to protect him, he was a sitting duck. Just then, Kuragari had no other option but to use her demon eyes. By drawing their attention with an attack, the moment they looked at her , they instantly all died.
