I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

Although the surname "Alexander" has not appeared many times in the library's collection, each appearance is accompanied by significant information.

Either it accompanies the change of power in the Tas Empire, or it is a marriage alliance of top nobles.

Alexander is the surname of the current royal family.

With three hundred years of national history, this surname carries great weight. Even the 'Kaley' calendar was named by Alexander.

Of course, although there is only one emperor in each generation of the Tas Empire, as long as you have this surname, you can basically roam freely on the Chaos Continent.

So, Li Yue was very surprised to see a member of the royal family appear at the Demon Ball, and was unsure whether the Joy Division originally had a partnership with the royal family, or whether this Alexander had made some decisions that violated his ancestors... …

Now that I can use the Nightmare Eye to extract this information, then I believe the demons of the Joy Division must also know the secret of this royal family member.

"You… …You are royalty… …" Van Helsing cooperated with the nobleman's vigorous performance, "I wonder if I have the honor… …to know your esteemed name… …"

"Richard Alexander."

The nobleman seemed to want to straighten his coronation robe, but his body was too weak, and he quickly gave up.

Li Yue silently noted the name.

"How could you… …come here… …" Van Helsing continued to ask.

"Me, ah… …" Richard fell into reminiscence, but the dream did not give him an accurate answer, "Maybe someone wants to extract royal secrets from me, maybe it's extortion, or maybe they just want me to die painfully… …"

"But none of this matters. After the lion falls… …every ant wants to divide a drop of flesh and blood… …" Richard shook his head.

Listening to his description, Li Yue even felt it was a bit like a feast.

"It is my honor to have you as company on the road to the Yellow Springs… …" Li Yue felt that relaxing his attitude when communicating with Richard seemed to make it easier to pry open his mouth, so he was naturally willing to say some nonsense.

"Yellow Springs? No, I won't die here, I will live forever."

"But you are not so sure."

Richard looked at Hannibal, his eyes somewhat playful, even with a hint of compassion.

Li Yue was amused, thinking, isn't this it?

He's been hung on the wall and beaten like this, and he still thinks he'll live forever?

【Kill him? If you let me out, I'll kill him. I haven't killed royalty before. 】

Egg volunteered to slap him in the face.

【He's dreaming, don't worry, play with him.】

Li Yue dissuaded Egg.

"Are you… …immortal?" Li Yue deconstructed Richard's body and found nothing different from other humans, not knowing where his confidence came from.

"Yes, I am royalty, I have immortality."

Richard started talking nonsense, making Li Yue want to let Egg out.

He was clearly outside just now, this Richard was using a light shield to fight for a chance, wanting to crash into the wall and die to escape, why did he change his mind as soon as he entered the dream, thinking he was immortal?

【Wait a minute, is this person really immortal?】

Li Yue discussed with Yingying.

【Try it and you'll know, let me out!】

Egg already wanted to wake up.

【Maybe he is indeed immortal, so he wanted to die at first.】

Yingying wandered outside the prison for a long time and came back to provide a brand-new idea.

【The outside of the prison is all fog, I can't get out.】

Yingying also commented on Richard's dream—obviously, Richard's dream was not as serious and shocking as the flies' dreams.

【Then what was his purpose in wanting to die at first?】

Li Yue recalled Richard's reaction when he hit the bone wall, suspecting that he had missed some important information.

【Why do you care so much? What did you want to get when you entered his dream? Don't be led astray by him.】

Yingying had no interest in a human royal family—even if it was the Tas Empire.

【I wanted to ask them about their understanding of the colosseum at the time… …】

Li Yue was criticized by Yingying, looked up at Richard, and suddenly felt that it seemed a little abrupt to ask directly now.

"Immortality? If you have this kind of power, you definitely won't lose if you fight in the colosseum, right?"

Egg bravely made an abrupt transition in the topic.

This is what it learned from its "friends."

"Colosseum? That's a very good form of entertainment… …" Richard didn't seem to be wary of this topic, "Before I found the true meaning of life, that was one of the few programs that could interest me… …"

Talking about the colosseum, Richard's blood flow accelerated, and he became a little excited.

But soon he was exhausted and turned cold again.

"The true meaning of life?" Li Yue also understood that Richard, as a member of the royal family, had limited pursuits and was easily confused.

It is estimated that he is a member of the outer bloodline and has nothing to do with the core imperial power area, otherwise he would not have been reduced to dying here at any time.

"Yes, the true meaning of life."

Richard showed a longing expression, "There is a kind of life that can be far away from the court, leaving only enjoyment.

There is no danger, no intrigue, only endless flesh and pleasure to comfort my scarred heart… …"

Now he is talking about the Joy Division and the Demon Ball.

"This is our home… …no one can question my choice… …rather than die alone… …it is better to become a demon… …I have the right to choose my life… …"

Richard muttered to himself, and Li Yue roughly understood that this royal family member should be in the Joy Division… …the degenerate humans that exist everywhere.

It turns out that the empire's royal family and nobles have this kind of choice before they die.

"Do you know Oogie Boogie?"

Egg stepped forward bravely and once again helped Li Yue get back to the topic.

“Oh… …Bag Demon, a fly that grows in greed… …a fool with a mouth full of lies… …" Richard didn't have a good impression of Oogie Boogie.

"He seems to have always wanted to get in touch with the Clive family… …to merge the empire and the demon's colosseum… …" Richard continued to recall.

【The colosseum on the human side seems to be quite fun, do you want to go and see it?】

Egg was a little proud, discovering that Richard was so cooperative if he asked the right questions.

"Colosseum, yes, he opened a colosseum in Demon King City… …"

"I've been there, it's quite fun, but the battles between demons are not very watchable. In this regard, he really should learn from the Clive family… …"

"Oh, but… …the existence of the colosseum in Demon King City is mainly to provide for the Demon King… …"

As Richard spoke, he suddenly mentioned the Demon King, Li Yue was shocked and immediately concentrated—what did the colosseum provide?

If the library is to inherit demon knowledge, what was the original intention when the colosseum was first established?

In the middle of his words, Richard's blood finally filled the runes on the ground, and suddenly he stopped narrating and laughed.

"You are demons, aren't you? Want to trick me?"

Richard pointed his chin at Li Yue, Yingying, and Egg.

Richard saw through the demon's dream trick.

"Too careless, isn't it?" Li Yue smiled, admitting that he was unskilled as it was his first time creating a dream.

"We can torture you in the dream, you can't die even if you want to."

Yingying raised her head, tore off the handcuffs on the wall, and stood in front of Richard with a chain, deciding not to pretend anymore.

"No, I won't die, I am Alexander, someone will come to save me."

Richard looked at the blood-filled runes in the dream with satisfaction—at some point, the runes became recognizable, it was human language!

"Whether it's here or outside."

Footsteps sounded outside the prison.
