Time after time, minute after minute, I have tried everything I can think of. I tried to be as friendly as I can, or talk as slowly and as kindly as I have. I have tried helping everyone out and using my basic strength to lighten up the mood. I tried different ways to talk to the servants but nothing works.
Nothing at all, they kept their distance, nor ran away as possible as they saw me pass by them, they won't give me a chance to talk and I am very displeased that my reputation is unexpectedly bullshit.
Now, I am currently locked up in my own room on the third floor of the palace. Since dinner with the family, we had separate meal times from morning to dinner. If we had another 'eat together' party, the whole house would eventually collapse. 
That is the reason we eat separated from the family, and since I have at least occupied the fifth building, so I have servants and other staff who work to maintain my palace well. Though it was not that many, there are few people who still maintain my palace to at least honor my mother's wish.
I still don't get it though. Our kingdom is a vast land in a sphere filled with dark and gray clouds that doesn't give light, it is as if this is a hell where demons live. Though we are ogres, our genetic origin came from demons that is also the reason we reassemble them in appearance—I mean humans. 
Unfortunately, it won't be too long for Reyes to come home. He was sent on a mission far from the beast continent, father can't order us to do the biddings so he had no choice but to give the mission to Reyes, Lucifer's butler and the only man who can speak to Lucifer better than anyone else. 
Talking about travel, he will probably arrive in three or four days at most. I am not sure how vast these lands are, and I don't know if like earth, this place is a circle planet that has an infinite land, and I don't know how exactly it is different to earth.
So if we are talking about how far the land is or what kind of transportation is used, I am not exactly sure of the date given. Although, with communication, I can extract information within. Just in time for Reyes' letter came at my door. 
*Knock* *Knock*
Strangely, even the sense of hearing became clearer and louder than my human senses. Is this also an effect of the system? Gash! I am not sure anymore. I took a little breath of the air coming out of my mouth and I looked at the door with a tight posture. 
"Come in," I said in a low tune. 
The person behind the door, whichever who will sent the letter seem to have understood and I once again heard a clutter of footsteps and the slow sound of the door opening in slide just before me, a lady—maid or servant who wears tight (yukata) that does not seem the same kimono I am familiar with bow her head slowly.
Her pale hands seemed shaking so I couldn't dare say anything. Maybe due to fear? I am not sure. Some people misunderstood Lucifer just because he has a temper, that alone is his weakness. 
"M-my l-lord! A letter came from you t-this morning," I am starting to get hung up with how they talk. I am not sure why but I didn't seem to feel anything—is this because I am starting to act like a beast?
"Stay," I demanded and took the letter from her hand. My long nails accidentally touched her bare skin and it cut right through, and it was so soft that a small liquid of blood poured down and there I heard her aching voice. 
"Ah, my apologies," I mumbled, worried that the servant may get a bad impression. I've done cutting these nails off but it didn't work because no matter how many times I need to cut my nails, it will only grow afterwards and at a fast speed like I've never seen before. 
The servant, scared of my nails, immediately took back her hands that I was trying to reach. She bowed her head and then she gulped. "Please have mercy on me! I-I will dismiss myself." 
After that she left in a rush like a mouse on the run, and I couldn't barely stop her. Jeez, my appearance alone look so scary and murderous, how am I able to cut this nails off? 
Now she'll probably tell her colleagues about the bruise on my hands and insult me behind my back. This has happened before as well, I'm not even surprised. I look at the letter and tear it down using my nails, the letter being fragile and easily being cut open. 
I took out the paper inside the envelope and breathed out. I usually get an update of Reyes' journey so I wasn't surprised to see a messy letter and Jesus that guy has the worst writing I have ever seen but strangely the language despite being so different, I can read the letter and what is being said here. 
Is this the sense of sight? I mean, I didn't have the time to learn their language so this sense is very reliable at many occasions. 
The letter first contains a greetings of my well being, before the content itself. The letter has a date, name and number of the sender so I can see how he made progress with making a letter. 
The contents are barely readable, I nodded in understanding. So basically, Reyes told me about this mission he started, if I remembered correctly, when Lucifer was still I guess 15 years old. Reyes was sent to the human continent as a representative of our kingdom, and that he is going to a certain area of that land to observe the treaty that happened between one the empires of the human land. 
He also stated here that he was sent there to take back the lost and abducted ogre's that was either born there or not. The race of our other allies has their own representative who was sent to escort their blood back home, that had been the case for over a long years since the new queen took over the kingdom of Venice. 
However, the desire of ending the trading companies was never prioritized. Instead Venice cannot have the upper hand over three of the powerful empire in the human continent which is why not every human exactly have the desire for coexistence instead one of the empires in the human land had been allowing trading companies of slaves against there own kind and the kind of other race. 
He ended the contents with a good news thought. He said that he's crossing the border back to the beast continent, and he'll be home in exactly three days boarding Mellissa? Erkk, what exactly is he boarding? Ah never mind, as long as his back by then. 
***
So that's what he said about boarding Mellissa? I feel the ache on my stiff cheeks while holding on all of my emotions in one container.
『An object is falling off from the dragons back... Warning... Warning... An object will fall...』
I give a long and stare at the huge figure in the sky, a large wings flock as the wind blows more rapidly as it shouldn't. The body it owns felt as if it belonged to a lizard of the size 10x or more of its size, the legs were too short like a dinosaur and the head is smaller yet scarier than the body. Its scales have those long and sharp shining like metal armor, and finally those sharp long nails on its feet. 
That is a dragon... A dragon times the size of any house, larger than it can be... 
I've never seen one before but I have a hunch that this probably existed somewhere in this world since dragons are considered beasts or monsters. They are rare types though, so rare that no one can see them except adventures—according to the third generation RPG games I had played back on earth, so seeing a dragon up close—I can feel the chills running down into my body, and it didn't hesitate at all. 
One thing I knew, I saw something falling down from the sky, so small yet not an object, but instead a person. "Haha!" and I heard a chuckle which was louder than any voice I've heard, and not only that but that person seemed familiar. "Why you've never known, the fifth prince decided to welcome me back, I see!" Due to the air, and the wind that was overlapping on him, the sound wave between each word had been conveyed very clearly. 
Ah, God, this old man is still the same. I shock my head and smile. "You don't need any grand entrance, Reyes, jeez you're wasting your time."
Seeing him now up close, I can see how young he became over this past year's we were apart.
