Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Carrying the captured Star Eyes Clan, Tian Hanxue crossed mountains and forests and returned to the Gate of Demon World through the teleportation array.

After several days of tireless construction, the New Demon King City has taken shape, no longer requiring Tian Hanxue’s ice or other demons’ magic power to maintain its form.

From afar, the New Demon King City looks like a miniature continent drifting in the ocean, with the same appearance as the old Demon King City.

At the center of the Demon King City stands a black throne.

On the throne, the Demon King sits formally, his hand stirring the sphere floating in mid-air, observing the entire world.

[Red Flame Monarch] and [Iron Steel Dragon] lead various cadres, standing on the Demon King’s left and right sides.

Placing the Star Eyes Clan sealed in ice before the Deceitful Emperor, Tian Hanxue spoke slightly apologetically:

”Lord Demon King, there have been some mishaps in the plan.

The people of this world seem to understand the importance of the Star Eyes Clan, or perhaps I was simply unlucky, happening upon the Star Eyes Clan hosting numerous powerful individuals...

I ultimately couldn’t gather enough of the number Lord Demon King required, bringing back only three, and I ask for Lord Demon King’s forgiveness.”

The Demon King’s face is completely hidden by black armor, and no one can see his moods:

”You’ve worked hard.

The number I requested was just to ensure everything would be foolproof.

Three will suffice. If you encounter the Star Eyes Clan again later, try to get a few more.

Tian Hanxue, report to me who stopped you.

In this world, someone with such strength cannot be underestimated.”

”A group of S-Class adventurers. They aren’t much.

Due to having to protect the team’s departure, I didn’t really let loose.

Lord Demon King, should we encounter them again, please allow me to act personally.

I will surely wash away the shame of not perfectly completing the task this time.” Tian Hanxue said.

The Demon King agreed to Tian Hanxue without much consideration, ”Do not forget our true duties, our true mission.

Do not try to defy my commands.

Under that premise, you may act freely and punish others.”

”Thank you, Lord Demon King.” Tian Hanxue smiled brightly, ”I will certainly not disappoint.”

”Take a rest! The full-scale attack is about to begin!” The Demon King spoke.

Tian Hanxue bowed to the Demon King and withdrew into the waiting team nearby.

The Demon King held the arms of the throne, rising with effort, and walked slowly toward the sphere floating in mid-air, reaching toward it,

”Everyone, news of the Demon Clan’s actions has already spread.

This world is already panicking over the teleportation magic matter, and will send many forces to eliminate any teleportation magic potentially existing in their territories.

Now is the perfect time to attack.

Conquer this world!

Beat the people of this world so that they are utterly defeated and lie at your feet!

Do not hold back.

They are all descendants of traitors.

They do not deserve to enjoy everything they have now!

Everything they have is built on the past glories of our ancestors, constructed with the blood and flesh of our ancestors!

We should reclaim everything here for our ancestors!

I declare, the war begins!”

The massive Demon King Palace echoes with cheers rising and falling.

After a hundred years of dormancy, this moment is what they have been waiting for.

Even though many do not understand whom the ”traitors” referred to by the Demon King really are, since every leader who has ever governed the Demon Clan said so, then there is a need to conquer this world!

Lord Demon King has brought unprecedented stability and prosperity to the Demon World, and controlling the entire power of the Demon World, his choice now must be the right path.

As long as they follow Lord Demon King, doing as he says, the future of the Demon Clan will surely be brighter, and life will certainly improve!

Those present, the demons, all think so.

[Red Flame Monarch] raised his weapon high, boiling with enthusiasm, already eager to unleash his abilities.

Not far away, [Iron Steel Dragon] slightly raised his head, watching as the Demon King grasp the sphere symbolizing this world and completely crushed it.

It has finally begun, [Iron Steel Dragon] murmured to himself.

Following the current Demon King was not initially of [Iron Steel Dragon]’s own volition.

His great-grandfather was once one of the Demon Clan Four Heavenly Kings, who had told him many things, including the meaning of ”traitor”.

He longs for the future world that his great-grandfather described to come.

He believes the current Demon King has the ability to accomplish the mission, thus choosing to follow.

For that future, for the Demon King, [Iron Steel Dragon] is prepared to sacrifice at any time.

If he can die for his dreams, there is nothing to regret.

The voice of the Demon King reaches [Iron Steel Dragon]’s ears, as the Demon King gives the real attack orders.

Not only [Iron Steel Dragon], but other Demon Clan cadres also hear the Demon King’s voice and receive their specific attack instructions.

Almost instantly, the Demon King completes the arrangements for everyone.

Teleportation arrays form beneath the feet of each Demon Clan cadre as they organize their troops, either boarding ships, flying demon beasts, or using teleportation arrays, leaving the Demon King City to launch an attack on the vast continent.

[Iron Steel Dragon] glances at [Red Flame Monarch], warning him not to let his samurai spirit hinder important matters, afterward also leaving using the teleportation array.

...

...

On the easternmost side of the Luo Ze Empire, vast snowfields stretch endlessly.

Over a hundred thousand Luo Ze soldiers construct a sturdy fortress here using stones and various magical materials.

The location is several hundred kilometers away from the sinking point of the old Demon King City and is at the forefront of where the Luo Ze Empire’s reconnaissance teams sent messages.

However, the garrison here has not received any communications in quite some time.

When the Magic Tide erupted, they also witnessed the light occurring in the distance, as layers of clouds spread across the sky, expanding overhead.

Initially, the soldiers guarding the fortress considered it a special natural phenomenon, but suddenly some people in the troops began showing adverse reactions, and nearby ice and snow demons rapidly increased...

The fortress guards then realized this was no natural phenomenon.

No matter how many times they tried, they couldn’t reach the reconnaissance team, and so they had to report the matter to the current Emperor of the Luo Ze Empire, Klaroci Qimia Roz.

Klaroci Qimia Roz quickly responded, immediately dispatching reinforcements and new investigation teams, though it would take several days for these reinforcements and teams to reach.

The soldiers spend each day in fear and anticipation, but they have long prepared themselves mentally to sacrifice for their country.

A Luo Ze General with a braid patrols along the wall, as a guard hurriedly hands him a crystal ball. It’s an urgent message from the capital, with simple content: the Demon Clan has already started taking action, and the higher-ups want him to quickly prepare.

The Luo Ze General with the braid looks serious, nodding heavily, while answering the liaison officer’s questions, he takes out a telescope as he usually does, gazing into the distance.

Endless white horizon, suddenly, a mass of darkness appears.
