I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

The hall was already prepared for work. The Miniminies were in pairs, standing in 4 groups beside 4 huge desks, piled high with books waiting to be translated. Google Search Reading

The books next to the fourth desk were piled the highest, obviously the Fifth Archives team where Li Yue was—because they didn't complete the required hours in yesterday's Killing Cup, the Fifth Archives team hadn't finished their assigned workload.

The Miniminy who gave Li Yue the hard piece of meat last night was also at the desk, winking at Li Yue from afar, looking happy.

At the front of the hall stood a book as large as a pillar, about one and a half times as tall as the demon wolf Fendis, like a priest in a church waiting for the congregation to be seated, its spine straight, its huge pages open.

Reading the memories, Li Yue knew that this was the Book Demon—the manager of the Archives.

"Stop your aimless drifting and go to where you should be." The Book Demon spoke concisely, and a line of words suddenly appeared on the open blank pages.

The three groups of Brain Spirits floated to their desks according to yesterday's positions, but the newly born Brain Spirit from the First Archives remained still, floating quietly.

Li Yue naturally followed the rhythm and floated, drifting at the end of the line.

"The Brain Spirit from the Fifth Archives... went to participate in the Killing Cup yesterday... wiped out...?" A question mark suddenly appeared on the Book Demon's huge page, which made Li Yue a little nervous.

Immediately afterwards, the Book Demon suddenly fanned its pages, like a giant eagle flapping its wings, and landed in front of the line of newborn Brain Spirits.

The pages brushed past the fifteen Brain Spirits, like a gentle breeze stroking their faces; but the left page remained unchanged, the ellipsis gradually lengthening.

"..."

[Analyzing... 13%...]

Li Yue quickly analyzed the Book Demon.

"Indeed, they are all different..." Before the analysis was complete, the Book Demon had patted the Brain Spirits' faces enough, and the pages stopped.

Li Yue breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this was the change brought about by the Supreme Magic Stone.

"Wait..." The pages on the left side of the Book Demon began to turn, and finally settled on a dozen pages earlier, revealing an old, long-written "Brain Spirit Translation Code."

The code wrote out the work content in Li Yue's memory, but Li Yue, like the other Brain Spirits, quickly scanned it with his mind, and sarcastically noted that the code didn't even mention the dangers of "translation," obviously the Book Demon didn't care about the Brain Spirits' lives at all.

"Start working, or die." The last line of the code threatened bluntly, the newborn Brain Spirits trembled slightly, and finally went quietly to the fourth desk, choosing to start working as they had for hundreds of years.

"Here, here..." The Miniminy who was familiar with Li Yue was about to reach out, but fortunately Li Yue stopped them in time with a telepathic message.

"Don't let them know we know each other." It wasn't easy to fool the Book Demon, and Li Yue didn't want to be forced to flee again.

"Oh, during work hours, no visiting, right?" Mini said grumbling—this was a little game between Li Yue's main body and this pair of Miniminies, and also one of the sources of intimacy for Li Yue.

Li Yue's main body and this pair of Miniminies had been working together for more than three years, during which they had translated a book called "Analysis of the Current Situation of Textile Women Workers in the Chaos Continent." At first, they thought it was some kind of drama, but soon they found some resonance in it, and then they acted it out based on their own shallow understanding...

In the script of the three demons, Li Yue played a lazy female worker in a certain case, while the Miniminies played the elderly parents of this textile female worker—the textile female worker worked during the day, with working hours of 18 hours, while the elderly parents wandered the streets picking up garbage, adding meals for their daughter at night, reflecting the love of kinship under great industry.

One small section mentioned that textile female workers do not accept visits during work hours.

"Right..." Li Yue replied helplessly.

"Then aren't we not allowed to talk?" Mini's emotions were low, and her outstretched arms and fingers drooped weakly on the pile of books.

"Or... we can be textile female workers together... which is more suitable for our current situation." Li Yue didn't plan to give up on finding out more information from the Miniminies during the day.

"Then... can we still be your dad? Can we still call you dear baby...?" Mini's face also stretched out.

Li Yue was even more helpless, but he didn't plan to pick up such a pair of big babies to be his parents: "You can be my younger brothers and sisters, it's normal for siblings to work together."

"Hee hee, okay, let's play something new!" The Miniminies quickly unified, and their little hands regained their vitality.

During the three people's communication, a group of helpless people also walked in at the entrance of the Archive Hall—slave scholars.

They dragged their dirty cloaks, stepped with zombie-like steps, and walked to their respective tables in a clanging of shackles; they straightened the paper, picked up a quill and dipped it in ink, and looked at the Brain Spirits in front of them.

Swish, swish, swish...

Gradually, the sound of writing began to sound, but Li Yue's mind was full of the slave scholar's hollow eyes—the one partnered with Li Yue was a 72-year-old man, his face covered with bruises, his gray hair sparse, seemingly about to exhaust his life in the endless work.

Li Yue didn't know his name, but the Demon Illustrated Book didn't pop up "Analyzing," so he defaulted that he was just one of the ordinary humans.

[Current Object... Status: Excited]

After seeing the scholar's status, Li Yue was quite puzzled—what was this person excited about? He looked like he was about to die... Could it be that he had fallen in love with the feeling of working?

"Why didn't I sense your thoughts? What are you still standing there for?" The old scholar, as the most senior slave, didn't have a good face for the Brain Spirit, and directly questioned Li Yue.

At the same time, Mini didn't say much, and stretched out her arm to spread a half-turned book in front of Li Yue, called "List of Nobles in the Kaili Calendar 259."

Li Yue carefully pretended to be a Brain Spirit, and had no way to refuse work in this situation, so he put his mind into the book, trying to understand each slightly raised word.

Although he didn't have eyes, when Li Yue put his mind on the book, he could vaguely feel the emotions and aura of the author when he wrote the title of the book.

No matter how long the era was, how special the author's identity was, this thought would be preserved on the book, exposing some information about the book... and then helping Li Yue understand the meaning of each word in the lines.

Taking "List of Nobles in the Kaili Calendar 259" as an example, this book compiled the introduction, family motto, epic, and famous figures of the families of famous nobles on the continent in the current human calendar 259.

The author of this book was very proud when he wrote this book. Li Yue guessed that he should be a member of the nobility, and he united many nobles to publish this work... to help everyone be famous in history.

"Kingston family, there have been 3 heroes, the Holy Knight Lancelot Kingston, as the commander, after the defense of the capital of the Thass Empire in the Kaili Calendar 235, commanded the demon counterattack in the Kaili Calendar 237, killing three hundred demon king soldiers, protecting the Black River Village at the foot of the Blind Mountain, and achieving outstanding feats..."

Li Yue transmitted the noble information recorded in the book to the old scholar's mind in a telepathic way; the old scholar also "swish swish swish" wrote with his pen, and quickly wrote line after line.

"Family motto: Eradicate evil; Family emblem: Lily..." Li Yue conveyed his thoughts to the old scholar, and couldn't help but check the words he wrote...

But he found that the family motto and family emblem of the Kingston family... he had already written them before Li Yue conveyed them to him?

Li Yue was puzzled—had this person read this book? Or had he experienced that period of history, and knew it without reading it?

Li Yue knew that it was Kaili Calendar 299, half a century away from the history recorded in the Noble List... Then, with the old scholar's old age, perhaps he knew it even more clearly than the book recorded?

The Demon King City was full of weirdness, Li Yue was careful, and continued to mechanically translate everything recorded in the book and throw it to the old scholar, but deliberately slowed down half a beat; the old scholar's pen didn't stop, and under the invisible gaze of his mind, he quickly filled the half sheet of paper, as if he was very familiar with this operation.

[Malice +79]

Malice towards himself? Li Yue was shocked.

Li Yue suddenly received a prompt from the Demon Illustrated Book, and after a daze, he found that after the old scholar finished writing half the paper, he actually took the time to pierce his old skin with a quill, and dyed the pen with blood.

The back of the scholar's hand was densely covered with blood spots, arranged according to the time when they were stabbed, dark ones were about to heal, fresh ones were just stabbed not long ago—the one just stabbed was next to a small scab, neatly paved to the root of the thumb.

Immediately afterwards, the old scholar dipped the quill in the blood hole on the back of his hand, and then suspended the quill on the table, until a drop of blood dripped into a groove on the desk, and lit up a six-pointed star-shaped imprint in a "swish swish" sound!
