The 0th Corps Commander Became Trash! [ TCF x INTKOT ]

Chapter 39 - Healing

She looked at him skeptically, not that he was suspicious. Yes, he was a hero that had a chance to kill the Demon King but, what was even stranger was his hair color. Edellia had already recorded information about him but it was even stranger to see the black hair you'd tend to only see on demons and vampires on a human, was it genetical thing? Both of the siblings looked human yet had features only demons and vampires would have

"...Sir Arut is in his room, I can tell by your face that you want to see him. Just for your information, you woke up first. It has been four days already."

This new piece of information was also shocking to her, she didn't expect the third hero to be the Zeroth Corps either. She knew something was up when the Demon King said not to record information on Deon Hardt but now she understood why. In order so that the Empire wouldn't find out that the third hero betrayed them, he strictly prohibited any information on him to be recorded.

The two walked towards Deon's room, they passed by demons who gave Cruel strange looks but quickly looked away when they were met with a sharp glare from him that reminded them of the Zeroth Corps Commander.

Edellia opened the door to Deon's room, Cruel could see an unconscious Deon on the large bed. The cracks on his hands were slowly healing and reforming, he could see that the God's were working on fixing the current situation.

'He really cares for Sir Arut...'

He cared for his younger so much that he was willing to cross to the Demonic Realm in order to ensure his safety. It was a foreign feeling that many demons including Edellia could feel, many demons liked to see blood splattering in front of their eyes. They didn't care whether or not someone died, that was until the Zeroth Corps Commander arrives.

He brought in many new feelings for the demons who resided here. Fear, joy, and concern were all things they were able to experience after the Demon King brought in Deon Hardt.

She left the two siblings alone and exited the room. According to Oelle, human siblings needed time alone since their bond was usually much stronger than demons. Before leaving, she could see the older raven head checking up on the whitehead.

The next day followed, Ben and Ed entered Deon's room to see another foreign person in it. They said nothing and greeted Cruel, a while ago they were warned by the Fourth Corps Commander and Demon King that the Zeroth Corps Commander's older brother would be in the room. They shared the same shocked reaction like Edellia, no one had expected the ruthless Demon Arut to have an older brother.

"You must be Sir Arut's older brother. His majesty ordered me to bring in bandages for you, we're currently on a strict ban on using magic."

"...You can leave it there."

Cruel gave an indifferent expression as he talked to the two, he didn't really care for his wounds and was more concerned on Deon's current wellbeing. He didn't eat for five days, five days! That was definitely unhealthy.

That was when the both of them realized one thing, the Zeroth Corps Commander's older brother was exactly like his younger brother!

(A/N): Like older brother like younger brother?

In the next few days, Cruel gained a reputation in the Demon King's Castle. He was known for how doting he was with the Zeroth Corps Commander, whenever anyone had tried to talk to him about anything unrelated about Deon, he would mindlessly nod as if he wasn't paying attention (because he wasn't). But whenever it was something about the Zeroth Corps Commander, he listened with full attention.

It was quite different from the Human Realm where Cruel Hardt was known for 'hating' his younger brother, Deon Hardt.
