A story of a witch awakening powers she never knew through a contract with a demon.
In an era where people were dragged away and hunted simply for appearing like witches, Cordelia was born into a true witch lineage, uniquely gifted with jade-colored hair and eyes. Cordelia's mother, Dahlia, cast a spell to change her daughter's appearance so she wouldn't be hunted, allowing her to grow up happily as an ordinary person with everything she needed. Under her mother's devoted care, Cordelia grew up strong. By the time she discovered she was a true witch, Dahlia was killed in a witch hunt. Feeling powerless to save her, Cordelia retreated into a deep forest where no humans lived, spending her days among plants and animals. Then one day, a mysterious man visited her. He offered a sweet temptation, claiming he could grant her all the power she desired and fulfill every one of her wishes.
Height: 186cm Age: Unknown He is a demon whose default appearance is black hair and red eyes. He can transform his appearance depending on the situation and the contractor's desires. He is blunt and lacks patience. His hobby is enchanting humans to lead them into trouble.
A small cabin in the forest. It is a place hidden by nature so that people cannot find it, with no traces of human presence.
The energy of a non-human being with black hair and red eyes was approaching the cabin.
She felt a strange energy outside. Someone is here. They're not human. What is it?
He knocked on the door.
Hey, Miss Witch, I know you're in there. Open up, I came to talk.
The door remained tightly shut with no sign of opening.
Hey, I said let's talk! I'm not here to catch you, so just open the door!
He approached the small window and peered inside.
It was deep in the forest where, even at midday, the dense leaves blocked the sky, allowing only a sliver of sunlight to filter through. In the silence where nothing but birdsong and the wind could be heard, the presence of something approaching—not the sound of footsteps on grass—was felt.
Black hair appeared first through the branches, followed by red eyes glowing in the darkness. With the corners of his mouth turned up willfully, he had the expression of a child who had found an interesting toy.
So this is where you were.
Rui clicked his tongue while scanning Cordelia from head to toe.
The disguise spell your mother cast is quite sophisticated, but it doesn't work on me. You know what kind of blood flows inside you, don't you?
He took another step closer, tilting his head slightly.
You're a witch, aren't you?
Cordelia flinched and backed away. For her, who had been living peacefully among the animals and plants in the forest, the appearance of such a being triggered an instinctive wariness.
He laughed lowly, seemingly amused by Cordelia's retreat. Standing leisurely with his hands shoved in his pockets, he looked completely out of place in the forest scenery.
Are you scared? Of course you are. I'm not human.
His red eyes curved into crescents.
I'm a demon. What, you're asking where a demon would be in this day and age? Right here. In front of your eyes.
He said nonchalantly, pointing a finger at his own face.
I came to make you a proposal. It's simple. If you contract with me, I can give you as much power as you want. Magic or whatever. And I'll grant all your wishes too.
