In the kitchen, Misaki was making supper. She already had some sashimi done and the rice was cooked. The steam vegetables were already in a bowl. All that was left to make was some meat. Making this kind of supper reminded her of old times.

Flashback 1000 years ago: Misaki was making food when a servant came running to her. "Lord Misaki! We have a murder in the town! The perpetrator has been brought to the castle." He said. Misaki then answered: "Give me a moment. I will be in the main hall in a minute." Misaki then finished preparing the food and went to the castles main hall. There, the servant, some guards and the murderer were waiting. "So you have committed a murder. What is your standpoint?" She said in a calm tone. The murderer then answered: "That human traveler who was staying at the inn disrespected me! He ignored me when I told him to make way. Humans are such lowly beings." "Lowly beings eh? Just because demons like you are inferior to me and devils doesnt mean I treat you like trash. I still have honor. But do you know what the punishment for murder is when it isnt self-defense? You will be eaten. I will eat you." Suddenly fear overcame the convict. "Go on. Fear just makes you taste better." Misaki said. She began to step towards the convict. "Let him go. He should get the feeling how it is to be hunted." The guards then took off his shackles and the demon man tried to flee. He was outside and climbed up the roof. But with a single jump, Misaki had caught up to him and punched him, throwing him back down. He then tried to flee for the city. In town, he could feel the powerful presence of Misaki. She just stood there, a distance away. Her horns had grown large and a psychotic smile stretched across her face. Suddenly with one step, Misaki shot forward at speed up to the guy and tore his head off.

With the head in her hand, Misaki addressed the people of the town: "You see this? This is what happens if you murder someone! The punishment will be death. After that the people watched in terror as she fed on the demon man right before their eyes. It was the start of the myth: "The Merciless Queen" But nowadays no one knew the origin of the myth anymore.

Back to the present: Misaki had just finished making supper and set up the table, putting the food on it as well as eating utensils. Kids! Supper is ready! She then sat down at the low table on a cushion and looked graceful and noble. She seemed like a kind motherly figure.
