Scene – In the center of Bees Village, everyone is gathered.Kail: Primordial Black is also known as Umbros—though that name isn't official.Umbros deeply cares for his Black Demons.Unlike most demons, Umbros doesn't rely only on skills and magic—he's also extremely skilled in physical combat, and his subordinates follow the same combat principles.He ranks among the top Primordials—specifically, Red and Black are considered the most powerful.
Precious: Ohh, I see. So that means he's really strong, huh?
Kail: Exactly.But it's not just about strength—Umbros is also mentally powerful.He pays attention to every aspect—defense, offense, physical condition, and even his mental state.
Precious: Seems like a nice guy.
Kail: Huh?! No way!He's only kind to his Black Demons. He doesn't show even an ounce of mercy to anyone else.
Precious: Okay, my bad. Anything else worth knowing?
Kail: What I've told you is from years ago.How powerful he is now—or what type of demon he's become—no one really knows anymore.
Precious: So how many types of demons are there in total?
Kail: There are 9 known demons:Red, Black, White, Yellow, Blue, Green, Purple, Pink, and Brown.
Precious: Oh! That's quite a few.
Kail: In addition to those, there are 3 more legendary Primordials—they only exist in stories now:Primordial Golden, Silver, and Gray.
Precious: Ooh, so those three have some special background?
Kail: Absolutely. Want me to tell you?
Precious: Not right now. Maybe later.
Kail: Okay.

Kin: No, you two can't go.
Tall: Yeah, you're still just kids.
Tety: But…
Tall: No means no.
Tety: Hmmph…
Pretty: I'll go too.
Kuku: No, Pretty! It's dangerous out there!
Pretty: Auntie, does it matter whether I go or not?We're facing Primordial Black!Besides, my skill might be useful.
Pintu: That's actually a good point.
Tall: Hmm, that's a fair idea.Okay, then you're going, Pretty.
Kuku: I want to go too… but I don't have any combat skills. ):
Pintu: That's fine. You can stay and wait for our return—someone has to welcome us back!
Kuku: Hmm...
Guzy: What about me, Master?
Tall: No, Guzy. You'll stay and look after Tety and Bety.If something happens to us in the war or we lose… you must get them and Ms. Kuku out of the kingdom safely.
Guzy: Hmm, okay… then what about Pizu?
Tall: Pizu will also stay here.He's very powerful, but I don't want to take risks.He'll help protect everyone—that way, I'll have peace of mind on the battlefield.
Guzy: As you command, Master.
Tall: So, now just one is left—Precious.

Pretty: Are you coming?
Precious: Aaaa... I've decided to stay home.
Everyone: WHAT..?!
Tall: Hmm, alright.
Lior: But everyone wants to go to war—and you actually can, but you're refusing?
Kin: Lior, he must have his reasons.
Precious: I thought—everyone else is out there, but here, only Pizu and Uncle Guzy are left to protect the home…
Precious (thinking):Honestly, that's not the reason.I can't show my true power yet.Also, I trust Lior completely.And Pretty's skill could make a big difference.
Pintu: Alright, so it's decided.Tall, Ms. Kin, Lior, and Pretty will go to war.
Everyone: YEAH!
