As a demi-demon raised by an ordinary human, there are two things wrapped around Nando's life: The first thing, living in the human realm without being humiliated, but having to risk his life every time. The second thing, living in the Tumaya realm without facing any danger, yet constantly being humiliated as the weakest half-demon. While his great love for a girl in the human realm and high self-esteem as a prince in the Tumaya realm requires him to face both things. Then how are Nando's efforts to maintain the good name of the family while protecting the people he loves so much? Will he be able to prove himself as the strongest half-demon in the Tumaya realm?
"Don't ever think that you are not my son," said the middle-aged man sitting beside me.
How could I not think it, if he had such a tall build? Whereas I have an athletic body. His height is 182 cm, while I only have a height of 169 cm. And I also have a strange ability that he doesn't have.
"Even though Father has black eyes, and you have brown eyes, you are still my son."
This black and tan-skinned man is indeed my father, but I doubt that because he bears no resemblance to me at all.
"Maybe i'll be in Australia long enough," said my dad. "I hope you can feel at home studying at your new campus.
"Me too," I said, driving the car. Right now, I'm taking him to the airport.
As soon as we entered the airport, a bald man wearing a black suit was seen waiting for us, and a snake was wrapped around the man's waist, but the man seemed fine. My father didn't notice it, and I was the only one who noticed it at that place.
The bald man wrapped in the invisible snake greeted my father in a friendly manner, "Wow! Mr. Teddy has arrived. How are you, Sir?"
"I'm very good, how about you, Mr. Aryato?" my father asked again.
"I am very well," he replied. "It's just that my waist feels a little painful."
I know. It must have happened because of a strange snake that he couldn't see.
"How long have you been waiting for me?" asked my father while shaking Mr. Aryato's hand.
Mr. Aryato shook my father's hand as well as he replied, "About 20 minutes ago."
"Sorry," my father said before looking at me. "This is Mr. Aryato, My Son. He is my work partner."
"Ooo, is his Mr. Teddy's son?" said Mr. Aryato.
I nodded as I shook the man.
"It seems that Mr. Teddy has foreign products," said Mr. Aryato. "His eyes are also brown, he's very handsome."
"This is domestic technology, Sir," said my father.
"Hahaha..." Mr. Aryato laughed amusedly. "I doubt that you have an Australian wife."
"Australians don't have brown eyes," my father said. "When he was little, his eyes were black, but because he ate too much chocolate his eyes turned brown."
This time I was made a joke by my father, and I should be offended. However, my heart didn't react at all to the chatter.
"Flight..." The flight alert had gone off, "...Australia will be departing soon..."
"Shall we go?" said Mr. Aryato.
"Come on," said father to Mr. Aryato, then looked at me. "Don't forget to pick up your mother, My Son," My Dady ordered before leaving me.
"Okay, My Daddy," I replied and then waved back to my father who was getting further away with Mr. Aryato.
I was stunned to see my father's back. The man never once doubted me as his son. While in my brain, the doubt that he is not my real father is always growing and growing every time.
The strange air awakened me from the realm of thought, I felt a strange air around me. When my eyes looked around me, there was a flight attendant with fiery red eyes walking past me.
I hate the look of imitations like that. Then, I immediately averted my gaze. Pretending not to be aware of its existence is the best way to avoid it. Because if he notices I see his strange eyes darting, then I will be the prey of terrible creatures.

When I entered the hospital yard which was quite spacious. The friction that was strong enough between the road and the wheels of my car caused an ear-piercing shriek, two shadows chasing each other forcing me to hit the brakes suddenly and forcefully.
"Shithead!"
I almost ran into two red and black shadows streaking across the hospital grounds. The two shadows were jumping so fast to the top of the hospital building.
Even though I'm used to seeing strange creatures that are invisible to the eye, but I've never seen two creatures like that.
"What kind of creature is that?"
