On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Huo reached the sky high gates of the Demon Clan. He looked for a while before he signalled the guards to enter the gates. The royal guards opened the gate and it began, the celebration. He was given the greatest welcome he had ever seen in his life. He felt a little bit at ease. King Dritan walked forward and stood next to his son.

"My son, your Crown Prince of the Demon Clan is back. I had only regrets and everything seems to have washed away when I see him standing next to me, Huo is back," he shouted to his disciples and people. Everyones hailed his name, a recognition he has never got in his life of hiding and sneaking, living in the darkness, counting his days. Huo raised his hands asking to stop shouting at the masses. He then took his sword and pointed at the sky, unsealing it. The sword let out a lightning and created a loud thunder that could have been heard in the whole universe. People screamed with glory and praising the prince. He noticed how happy his father looked and saw in a corner, Volca looking at him, proudly, with tears in her eyes. He wished he could show all these to Aqua. He felt proud for a moment and thanked Aenon in his mind. He has got the most unexpected. The Demons celebrated his arrival for a whole week. Huo'er took his time to get used to castle and the people.

Dritan was busy taking care of local issues and asked ordered his ministers to come up with an idea to officially hold the coronation of Huo'er as the crown prince. A post that had been left vacant for decades.

He ordered the guards to tighten the security in the borders and the palace to not let a fly in without his permission nor Huo'er's. He also ordered Volca to personally take care of everything Huo will need in the castle, the weapons, the food, his clothes to his mount. Dritan wanted his son to have everything that he didn't have in his life for all those years he was alone. But he felt glad that he had Master Bo Hai as his shifu and brought him up secretly. Hence he was sure how righteous Huo'er would be about everything.

Huo rested in his bed chamber, while the maids served him non-stop with food, fruits, and wine. He didn't say any objection since he was trying to understand the ways of his father and the castle. He didn't wish to get on the wrong side of anyone.

He made up his mind to enjoy these little things. Volca waited for his permission outside to enter his chamber.

"Tell her I will meet her in the garden," he ordered not wishing to let her inside his personal space. He didn't trust her. He put on his clothes and walked out of the room. He first went to meet his father. He had something to discuss about.
