I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“Oh? Not crawling back this time, huh? Think you're strong enough now?” The fly swarm sensed the scorching aura emanating from the bone cabinet and hurriedly scurried out of the cracks.

That was Lee Read controlling the Lava Hand to release lava, quickly retracting it after achieving the purpose of driving them away.

“What did you say just now?” Lee Read wasn't sure what Oogway Boogie's purpose was in pestering Buddybooger, so he asked vaguely while communicating with Buddybooger.

“He just… informed me of the time and arrangements for the fourth match…” Buddybooger's thoughts trembled, and Lee Read could even feel the sobbing in his mind, “And he's discussing potential opponents for the fourth match with me… asking me to choose from gladiators ranked 100 to 110…”

“How am I supposed to choose… I said choose someone whose bone cabinet is restrained… someone who's afraid of bones… afraid of soul impact… Oogway Boogie doesn't agree… He says that after today's match… the audience only expects me to die… so the next opponent… in terms of ability, must be someone who restrains me…” Buddybooger babbled on, but luckily it was telepathy, so Lee Read still heard him out.

The rest was all begging like “I want to go home,” “I don't want to come back anymore,” “Please let me go.”

“I said… you seem different, mutated, amazing?” Buddybooger's flies buzzed, “Has the next opponent been chosen? It definitely can't be an opponent you look like you can win against, only the final one can be.”

“Look forward to it… Buddybooger… as long as you fight that match after the full moon, your debt will be written off, and you'll be appreciated by the new city lord…” The fly swarm displayed a pattern of a throne, “What could make a demon happier than that?”

【The fifth match… is your death date】

【Fifth match, fifth match… there's a guy coming to fight in person…】

【That's a very scary thing… I don't dare to provoke it, buzz…】

【Me neither…】

Buddybooger's flies also communicated with each other, and it was difficult for Lee Read to find the key points, only able to get a general idea.

“Is there any difference? They're all gladiators ranked around one hundred.” Lee Read controlled Buddybooger to send a message, “What about the time? When is the next match?”

Lee Read only cared about how much time the library had to quietly develop—whether it was the transformation of the library or Lee Read's own control over the brain spirits, both required a longer period of time.

“We're also thinking about this issue, buzz… The time you asked is very correct, because we just made a decision.” The flies' buzzing was no longer so chaotic, “It's decided to be on the night before the next full moon, how about that, exciting enough?”

【After the fourth match is the fifth match, the Killing Cup final… two consecutive battles… will you still not die?】

Buddybooger's thinking was clear, and he still adhered to his principle of “never playing a fair game.”

But Buddybooger didn't know that this was also good news for Lee Read—half a month was enough to change many things.

For example, exchanging materials with the Demon Kitchen using the Self-Healing Bone, signing a “Low-Level Demon Contract” for all the brain spirits, and gathering the brain spirits to collect malice everywhere, one “Heavy Armor Strongman” for each.

Thinking of this, Lee Read suddenly had a new inspiration and replied to Oogway Boogie: “Of course, very exciting, very good.”

“If you think it's good, then it's good, buzz…” The Gambling Demon didn't expect the Lord of Brain Spirits to accept this arrangement so easily, and felt even more unable to see through Buddybooger.

“But before that, I have a more exciting proposal, do you want to hear it? Buzz?” After experiencing today's battle, Lee Read suddenly understood the rules of the coliseum.

The battles in the arena were only the appearance, the interests behind them were what the King of the Coliseum cared about; and the audience only cared about whether the fight was exciting and whether it could release the killing desire during the Demon King City's lockdown.

So… Lee Read prepared to propose a proposal that Oogway Boogie couldn't refuse.

“Buzz? What proposal?” Oogway Boogie couldn't figure out why Buddybooger was so proactive today, but he was quite interested in hearing what the brain spirit, whose whole body was brains, had to say.

“For the fourth match, how about we have a team battle?” Lee Read checked Buddybooger's memories and saw the opponent choices given by Oogway Boogie, “I think this one, the Jackal Chief ranked 114, is not bad, he should also have his own team, right?”

In Buddybooger's memory, the Jackal Chief controlled about a hundred personal guards, which was also a huge force in the Forbidden Forest, not even needing to give face to the Demon Wolf King Fentus.

And in the entire coliseum ranking, the Jackal family was also the most advanced demon from the Forbidden Forest.

Occasionally, the Jackal family would get permission to leave the city and go to the vicinity of the Tas Empire's trade route for a frenzied plunder—many materials were collected by the Jackal family.

Bone sticks, broken limbs, and screams were their favorite, and fighting and plundering were their methods of self-improvement.

“You're saying… you want to lead the library's brain spirits… to challenge the Jackal family, buzz?” There was some commotion in the fly swarm, discussing the feasibility of Lee Read's proposal.

“That's right, aren't they the most bone-gnawing? That can also be considered restraining me, right?” With the octopus tentacles, Lee Read began to dig a pit for Oogway Boogie, “After watching today's Killing Cup, countless demons will definitely bet on them to win.”

“Buzz… that would be the case…” The flies buzzed non-stop, “But… why buzz?”

Lee Read controlled Buddybooger to float a little higher: “Isn't this the Killing Cup's brain spirit special? Why should I, a single brain spirit… enjoy all the fun?”

“Buzz hahaha, that's possible! Of course, it's possible! Anyway, there have been precedents!” Oogway Boogie reminded Lee Read of that battle with Fendis, “Hopefully this time… the brain spirits can also create a miracle, buzz…”

【Regardless of equipment, cooperation, or individual combat power… the Jackal family is steadily suppressing that group of low-level demon brain spirits… we have to promote it like this…】

Oogway Boogie had already begun to think of the advertising slogan for the fourth match.

【Buzz buzz buzz, we can also add a rule, demonic relics can be used, buzz!】

A fly proposed to Oogway Boogie.

【The Jackal family has snatched a lot of demonic relics over the years, as long as we report a few names, countless demons will definitely bet!】

【Oh damn… I even wanted to do this for the final… too bad…】

Lee Read didn't expect Oogway Boogie to have this idea, thinking that in terms of demonic relics, it seemed that he was indeed at a disadvantage, but when it came to equipment and cooperation… the Jackal family shouldn't be able to withstand sixty “Heavy Armor Strongmen.”

Especially the “Heavy Armor Strongmen” who had been modified by the octopus tentacles.

“Then it's decided.” Lee Read summoned Buddybooger, preparing to return to the library.

Buddybooger was relieved, but thinking about facing the notorious Jackal family in the next match, he still had an impulse to self-destruct.

“Wait a minute, buzz… but in that case… how will you win the next match, buzz?” Oogway Boogie asked the key question.

【What kind of tricks should I do…】

“That's your problem.” Lee Read drove Buddybooger away, not even turning his head, “Just notify me on the invitation.”

Walking and walking, Lee Read suddenly remembered something.

“But I don't think I need you to help me win… just like today, I also beat Corey until he disappeared, didn't I?” Lee Read estimated that he was exposing Oogway Boogie's scar.

Malice… must be collected from now on, after all, there are 60 brain spirits waiting to be armed.

【Malice + 1452】

“Buzz… you better be able to destroy the Jackal family…” The fly swarm dispersed after letting Buddybooger leave, thinking about the advertising slogan for the fourth match of the Killing Cup and how to do tricks.

And Lee Read took Buddybooger back, thinking that he had finally won nearly half a month of respite for the library—with this half month, he could not only completely take the library into his hands, but also try some transactions with the outside world to feed back the development of the library.

Such as this trading channel leading to the Demon Kitchen.

Lee Read had just sent Buddybooger away when he saw a large pig with six human hands growing on its back arching in front of him, with a small stomach bag hanging on its hands.

“The bones on Buddybooger's body… are yours, right?” The head chef handed the stomach bag to Lee Read, “I want them too.”
