The Reborn Demon King Girl

After severely admonishing a maid, Doro arrived in the World of the Dead through a teleportation gate.

"Your Majesty, the Unique King!" Roland respectfully saluted Doro, "I have prepared your favorite Delusion Tea."

After Roland and Elf became the rulers of the World of the Dead, they started making some changes to it, which also benefited the "Void Realm" that Mohe initially created as a battlefield. That world was only used as a battlefield once, and then it was absorbed and utilized like nourishment by the World of the Dead.

As a result, some special things began to emerge in this world, yet they could not be called life.

The Delusion Tea is one such thing, formed from chaotic thoughts condensed into something resembling tree leaves, which Roland and Elf processed into something similar to tea leaves. Each sip provides a different emotional experience. Doro has recently grown fond of this.

"Where is Elf?"

"Sister went to inspect the World of the Dead. Since becoming the symbol of the World of the Dead, we naturally have to consider all aspects to prevent the birth of previous kinds of thought-forms, so we conduct regular inspections. Such things would disrupt the operation of the World of the Dead." Roland explained Elf's whereabouts, "However, you can wait a little while. Sister knew you would come, so she instructed me to host you first, and she will return later."

Doro nodded and, together with Roland, arrived at a crystal palace, where colorful tea was displayed. Doro sat on a crystal chair, his gaze sweeping across the many landscapes of the World of the Dead: "Do you think that the shattering of the Void Realm, becoming nourishment for the World of the Dead, was itself also within Mohe's expectations? Does she intend to execute some scheme against me through the World of the Dead?"

Roland sat across from Doro: "This is not something we can know. Despite becoming symbols of the World of the Dead, Miss Mohe said we have the potential to step into the domain where you reside, but whether it's one percent or one-thousandth, it's still potential—we are still far too distant from you and cannot touch it, so we cannot sense if there is some scheme within it."

She was quite sincere. In fact, compared to Elf, this younger sister of Elf seemed a lot more composed. This girl always appeared unhurried and never seemed to panic over anything. This was quite a good quality, and Doro held her in fairly high regard.

"I understand. Just a tentative question, according to your estimation, how much time is left until humans are the only wise species left in this world?"

"According to my and sister's investigation and statistics, although the data is still not very clear, after calculations, we found that this time will take at least another ten thousand years. The process of all major races perishing and then becoming human is truly gradual, and besides, the world, nature, is still giving birth to those races. This data is calculated under the assumption that you remain the Unique King."

Doro was silent for a moment: "What if a large-scale war occurs in this world?"

Roland looked at Doro with confusion: "But, Your Majesty, the Unique King, with you here, why would there be war? Weren't you the one who ascended to the position of Unique King to achieve peace and halt the world's conflicts? At this stage, if a large-scale war were to happen, it could only be..."

Only if Doro initiated it.

But...

"Who do you plan to wage war against? Angels? Or the undead?"

Doro simply shook his head at Roland's keen assumptions: "It's not that I want to start a war, but the emergence of war is almost uncontrollable unless I sit on this throne forever. Do you think I'll stay on the throne forever?"

"You won't, Your Majesty, the Unique King, you feel pained by this position. If you don't leave in time, you yourself will become the greatest problem of this world." Roland looked at Doro as she spoke these words.

Doro made a helpless expression: "But if I leave this position, war will quickly start once more."

"This is probably something Miss Mohe anticipated."

Doro took a sip of Delusion Tea and then slumped desolately over the crystal table: "I think, I can only hear some truths with you sisters. Those who love me, those who hate me, those who worship me, those who want to harm me—I don't worry about these emotions, just that these things may blind me to myself."

"My sister and I also love you."

"But you won't lie to me. And leaving your sister aside, the love you speak of is obviously problematic, isn't it?"

Roland blinked: "But didn't you just say we would tell the truth? Yet you say I'm lying?"

"It's precisely because I know whether what you're saying is truth or lies that I say what you're speaking is the truth, "

"You really are sly... Is this a quality needed as a king?"

Doro nodded: "After becoming the Unique King, I suddenly found that all the conflicts seemed to be my own inner struggle, a battle between the palm of my hand and the back of my hand, between my impulsive thoughts and restrained thoughts. Many times, I almost couldn't figure out what I really thought."

A strong entity with absolute power, having a world under his rule, power can be seized by no one from his hand, his will must be carried out, his orders must be executed, therefore—the world spins in his hand, hence—different views are his different emotions, for example, if somewhere suffers from a natural disaster, and he dispatches people to handle it, to what extent must it be done? If another place also suffers a disaster, can he provide accurate and equal assistance?
