I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“This is a strike from time itself, a divine will, the sum of your past, present, and future power.”

“This is a sharp sword we grant you.”

“See if you can carve out your future…”

Qi He recalled Linde's words, increasingly aware of a life-threatening sense of crisis.

Qi He sensed the sword within his brow, realizing it could directly shave away time, extinguishing the lifespan of that sack demon.

As long as that City Defense Commander died, victory in this war would not be far off, and he would have a more distant future.

Instead of being a footnote in a war.

Qi He rubbed his brow, refocusing his gaze on the Demon City in the eternal night.

Outside, the clamor of the Holy Path Army had ceased, the curses were gone, and the scorched earth was utterly silent, awaiting the opening of the portal and the entry of the Imperial Army.

Meanwhile, the Forest Watcher was still sleeping, recovering, unaware that even a blade of grass was gone from the soil of the once forbidden forest.

As for the true sovereign of the Forbidden Forest, the Demon Wolf King Fentus, he was now on his last breath in a snow cave beneath the snow mountain, with a small wolf gnawing on the bones of his calf.

“I can’t go back,” Fentus looked at the little wolf with affection, seemingly not caring at all that his leg bone was being gnawed on.

The little wolf ate on his own, not saying a word, as if wasting a single bite would be a crime.

“Fentus—welcome the Holy Light—welcome your doomsday—” A heavy voice echoed from outside the snow mountain, “End your filthy lust—witness the Holy Path—”

Judging from the content of the voice, it should be the Holy Path Army speaking.

“Wallace… the knight's last elegy… hehe… just a piece of trash human who accepted Creation modifications…” Fentus's gaze shifted from the little wolf, and when he looked up, all he saw was darkness.

“Damn Demon King and Memphistos… If it weren't for them… we should have returned to the forest by now… regained the glory of the Demon Wolf clan…” Fentus closed his eyes and imagined.

“Going back means being eaten by Memphistos, staying here means being killed by the Holy Path Army… So only in this way, only by being eaten by you, can the Demon Wolf clan have hope…” Fentus felt the friction of wolf teeth against wolf bone gradually moving upwards, and the feeling of death became clearer.

The little wolf still didn’t say a word, concentrating on gnawing.

“Eat, my child, eat…” Fentus opened his eyes again.

“Before I die, I will bestow upon you a name… grant you power…”

“Should I call you Fentwarf… Fentitus… or Fenstis…” The Demon Wolf King began to choose a demonic name for the little wolf.

The little wolf snorted.

“Let’s call you Fenstis…” The Demon Wolf King seemed very satisfied with this name.

“Fenstis, you must once again rule the Forbidden Forest, become the master of the Forest Watchers, avenge your brothers, kill all the Skeleton Clan, and hunt all the pure-blooded demons, until you bite Memphistos's…”

“What are you talking about? My name is not Fenstis.” The little wolf finally looked up, with Fentus's bone fragments still in his mouth.

“I will choose my own name, you don’t need to waste your energy anymore, focus a little…” The little wolf decided to awaken his demonic name on his own, continuing upwards along the Demon Wolf King's thigh.

“Haha, haha… my son…” Fentus was first stunned, then relieved, experiencing a kind of joy he had never felt before as he approached death.

“End your filthy lust—witness the Holy Path—”

Outside the snow mountain, Wallace's voice was still echoing, getting closer and closer.

And along the veins of the snow mountain to the south, at the mouth of the Lund River, a female knight holding a cross sword was listening to her heart.

She sat alone on a rock at the mouth of the sea, drawing meaningless patterns with her cross sword, with two dominoes placed beside her.

One domino was inlaid with a Twisted Eye and a Mimic—that was the Shadow Demon's "gift" spread to the banks of the Lund River, almost everyone on the banks of the Lund River had one, using it to observe the movements of the demons.

It was also one of the few entertainments.

The other domino was much simpler, just bone, with a crooked cross engraved on it.

Jessie threw up the domino inlaid with the Twisted Eye and shattered it into bone fragments with a sword—after experiencing the Skeleton Giant Tree in Godsworn City and the Creation Department, the Empire required everyone to hand in their dominoes, and those who disobeyed would be regarded as criminals and become slaves to build railways.

As a Kingston, Jessie certainly didn't care about this ban.

She had deeper worries.

The Imperial Army was dispatched, and the forces of the major nobles and lords were assembled at the five fortresses of Noose One to Noose Five, but Jessie, as an eighth-order knight, was excluded, and the Kingston family's soldiers were handed over to Gerard for unified command, and the family's sacred object, the Magic Mirror, was still in the hands of her brother.

This made Jessie very worried.

Clearly, Gerard's performance in the vanguard wasn't very good, clearly, they were both eighth-order knights, even if Jessie was newly promoted, but her strength was about the same, so why was this opportunity to advance to the ninth order once again placed before her brother?

Clearly, Jessie had the opportunity to ask that skull to kill Gerard, but considering the overall situation of the Kingston family, Jessie gave up.

So Jessie was assigned to the banks of the Lund River, far from the battlefield, with the churning Sea of Death in front of her.

Did all of this have no meaning?

It seemed to be like this all her life.

Jessie's hand reached for the other simple domino…

The domino that had just been cut into pieces might have more complete functions, but what Jessie could keep was still this domino with a hastily engraved cross sword.

Jessie had already confirmed that the City Defense Commander of the Demon King City was that skull.

Jessie wasn't sure whether to initiate a communication.

Jessie was struggling.

Lulu and Feifei were also struggling.

Because their brother had explicitly forbidden the Mini Minis from going to the Demon Market during the time period of Meria Port.

·

This round of the Demon Market was in Meria Port.

But the Little Brawlers brought back news that Sand Cat Pebbles were on sale at this Demon Market.

Other Mini Minis might not know what this was, but Lulu and Feifei knew.

This was an important auxiliary material for the Shadow Demon's promotion.

Lulu and Feifei were struggling whether to disobey their brother's order and go to Meria Port to buy goods.

“Should we go find brother… and apply for it?” In the library's bath, Feifei was scrubbing Lulu's back.

“Ah! Brother is very busy, he has to run back and forth between the underground city, the workshop, and the arena every day, don't think about disturbing him!” Lulu had observed Li Yue's recent schedule.

Either he was helping the dark elves trace shadows in the underground city with Yingying, or he was discussing the "satellite" design drawings with Copper Spoon and Tom…

He even took the time to go to the casino to win a lot of "promotion luck" for Yingying, listing an entry in the status bar.

The rest of the time, brother was in the bone room reception room of the arena, producing bones, iron quality, and other materials like a mother hen, so busy that even seeing him was a luxury.

“It's not that I want to disturb him… This is such an important matter, is it really okay not to tell him?” Feifei muttered softly, scrubbing Lulu as clean as a shelled shrimp.

“Or we can report to Tom! That's it! Feifei jumped up lightly, “Anyway, procurement is Tom's responsibility, if we say hello to Tom, it won't be considered a private departure!”

“Tell him to go to Meria Port?”

“Stupid! Of course, say we're going to the Demon Market! To buy Sand Cat Pebbles!”

“Brother wants Yingying to be promoted the most right now! This is helping brother a lot!” Lulu got up, put on her beloved mithril armor, and dragged him to the Bloody Corridor.
