Bride of the Great Demon King

Masked Man: I've discovered that maybe we're not immune to death.

Big Devil: Oh?May I ask what can take the life of the Demon King?

Masked Man: ...

Great Demon King: Or do you want to challenge me?

Masked Man: (sighs)...it's obsession.Only obsession can lead us to perdition.

Great Demon King: Don't tell me, you violated the custom of not seeing the king just to tell me this.If you really want to know if you will die, why don't you try it yourself?

Masked Man: (eyes suddenly widen)

After a while—

Masked Man: (smiling) I'll think about it.

……

"Hey, hey?" After hearing what the Great Demon King said, even the usually calm boy couldn't help but let out a series of exclamations.

"Could it be that you don't want to accept it?" A look of obvious injury flashed across the face of the Great Demon King.

Bailie quickly waved his hands at a loss: "No! I, I don't know what to say. I..."

"Just say you will. Look me in the eyes and say you will."

"But this was originally yours..."

"Say you do."

"I, I'm not unwilling, but..."

The Great Demon King smiled and put the sapphire ring on the boy's right thumb: "There is nothing wrong with it. Your magic power has reached the standard of a high-ranking demon, and even if you take over a castle, it will not be a big burden. The Iron Prison Castle is my favorite. One of the castles where I tortured many interesting prisoners. I sincerely hope that you will like it too. Said to make happiness for you, if I can't give you even a castle, I will regret it lifelong."

Bailiel touched the dark blue gemstone, his eyes were a little moist, but before he had time to express his speech, he was preempted by the hell hounds on the side.It seems that after coming out of the mirror maze, Bastian and Bailiel have established a pretty good relationship.I like people who have courage, whether they are humans or demons, the hellhound once explained to his master.

So this time, in order to get rid of Bairiel's unnecessary pushback, the Hellhound decided to use the facts as a weapon to help the Great Demon King convince him——

"Briel, you can accept it with confidence! It's nothing, the master used to have several castles in one shot!" Noticing the sudden sharp eyes of the big devil, Bastian's pricked ears twitched. Moved, "But it's the first time to send out half of the territory at once."

So it seems that it is easier to provoke the anger of the Demon King?A demon king who only owns two castles is a disgraceful thing, right?Mensa rubbed her hands, eager to change the subject.

At this moment, Bailie suddenly laughed. "Well. I am willing to accept your gift. I will manage the summer palace well! But...Actually, I want to ask...I...Can I..." The young man bit his lower lip and asked in a low voice, "Or live with you?"

"Of course!" After understanding the reason for the boy's hesitation, the Great Demon King was in a good mood.Smiling, he raised Bairiel's arm and kissed the sapphire ring on his thumb: "Where are you going? I can't stand you leaving my sight for a moment! All you need to do is to output some magic power to maintain the castle It’s just for daily needs. Now, please summon the will of the castle in your heart.”

Bairiel closed his eyes, feeling that the ring was greedily absorbing his magic power, and a very friendly consciousness swirled around his body, carefully exploring his heart.With the loss of magic power, that consciousness became more and more intimate, and the somewhat unstable mood swings that were transmitted gradually calmed down.

"Welcome back, my master."

A voice sounded in my mind...

Starting from the boy's feet, the decayed and broken floor is gradually being repaired, the color of the walls is no longer mottled, the fragments of the vase are rejoined, the carpet finally reveals its original color, and the fragments of the chandelier are crawling on the carpet Moved, combined, and finally jumped up and reconnected to the ceiling...

When Bailiel opened his eyes again, there was already a brand new castle in front of him.Even Mensa on the side was a little surprised that the boy's magical power could restore the abandoned castle so quickly.

"She asked me which room I want to open." Bairiel looked at the Great Demon King suspiciously, repeating the question that the castle sent to his mind just now.

"Gemwork! Of course it's a gemstone!" Mensa yelled almost immediately.Unexpectedly, Bailiel's magic power is not only enough to restore the entire castle, but also has enough power to open a new function!

"Ask her what options she has, just pick one you like! The more advanced the function, the more magic power you need to maintain daily, so you can make a good choice. Wait until your magic power is enough, and then open it A new room. Actually, it's just a matter of order."

"Hmm..." Under Mensa's eager eyes, Bairiel thought for a while and made his own decision, "Then let's go to the library! I want to read." I appreciate it very much.

"I promise, the collection of books here will not disappoint you." The big devil picked up his bride and stepped up the stairs covered with red carpet.Along the way, from a certain direction upstairs, there was a steady stream of clinking sounds of wooden furniture and unknown sounds.

When the big devil pushed open a heavy door, Mensa looked at the neat rows of bookshelves inside and knew that his gem workshop might have to wait for the next time.hateful!Compared with these broken books, gems are what summoners most urgently need!Well, maybe just something I desperately need.Thinking of the servant who spared no effort to support Bairiel in his prodigal activities, Mensa couldn't help but feel a little downcast.

"A lot of books!"

The boy was stunned at the door for a moment, and couldn't help admiring.

He ran to the bookshelf, his fingers darting across the spine of the book.fine!Most are written in Hell's Common Tongue.In terms of content...it's amazing, almost all of them are fields that I know nothing about but are very interested in!

If it was said that Bailiel chose to build a library just because he wanted to be the kind of person that the Great Demon King admired, now after seeing so many books, the boy's heart is full of joy that is about to overflow.For the first time in his life, he discovered that he could also have certain hobbies.These books are simply destined to have a fatal attraction for him!

"Thank you! This is really great!" After a long time, the boy turned around and threw himself into the arms of the Demon King.

Fascinated by the pure joy in those emerald green eyes, the Demon King couldn't help but bow his head and give his bride an extremely lingering kiss.Such a beautiful smile cannot be exchanged for all his castles put together.

Of course, at this moment, he still doesn't know how long this young man, whom he can't wait to cling to, will spend on these books.Otherwise, he would be more than happy to go along with Mensa's idea of ​​building a hundred jewel workshops!

"So, don't we need to have someone guard the upper entrance?"

After dinner, Briel held a staff in one hand and a book with a black cover in the other, and asked casually in a suspicious tone.In fact, the Great Demon King doubted whether the boy could really keep up with his topic.After Bailier turned the first page, his gaze never fell on himself again. How can it be that the attraction of that book is greater than the security measures of the territory and even himself?A certain demon king who has always been known for his beauty in hell suddenly had doubts about his appearance.

"Yes. My fog of death will not dissipate for a long time to come. It is like a natural cordon, anyone who enters the fog will lose their life, and any attempt to dispel it will immediately Perceived by me." Still failing to get the young man's eager gaze, the Great Demon King asked with some resentment, "Then, can you tell me what book you are reading?"

"It's very interesting! It's very interesting!" Bairiel put down the book, and for the first time after dinner, his eyes rested on the Great Demon King. "It's talking about..."

A blunt bang interrupted the long-awaited communication of the Great Demon King.The resentful Great Demon King raised his head, then frowned and snapped his fingers, using black flames to isolate the uninvited guest who suddenly appeared at the other end of the living room.

"Camila, you still have the guts to come back!" The devil's anger soared after he recognized the person.

Bailiel glanced at the charred figure lying on the ground dying.The hair and clothes were completely burned, and there were dark red wounds on the body. Is this person the said to be very beautiful Mirror Witch Camilla?He suddenly noticed that the injured man was wearing an oval earring on his left ear.

"I implore you to take care of Corian and protect her life from harm." The mirror witch's facial features were burnt, leaving only a bloody mess.In the place where the mouth was originally, a black hole opened and let out a hoarse sound.Fingers like coke stretched out weakly towards the Great Demon King.

"Oh? What made you think that I should fulfill your last wish?" The big demon king crossed his arms and looked at the witch coldly. "Is it the shallow friendship between demons? Or out of pity for you? No, no, no, I want to say that even your life can’t offset my anger. No one can betray me!”

"Yes. I am about to die. The radiance of St. Andre was originally a holy object that opened the passage for angels to descend. No fallen life can pass through it. This is the group of cunning humans who are willing to borrow it Give me the reason, once the wish is fulfilled, I must not live, they can easily take it back. In fact, the light has burned my heart to ashes, and even I wonder why I still have the strength to get here."

Camilla suddenly trembled a few times and coughed out a big mouthful of black ashes, and Bairiel could even see a tooth in the ashes. "But Corianne needs a protector. She can't live alone in hell, and I can't let her die with me. Yes, I beg you, beg you to be her protector. Dear Prince, I only I want to make a deal with you, and use a little information in exchange for the protection of my sister's life."

"Hmph! Information?" The Great Demon King looked at the dying Camilla with disdain, "Do you still have any valuable information for me in your hands?"

"Don't forget...forget what I said before, they originally planned to do something to you." Camilla's strength seemed to be declining sharply, and even speaking became a little difficult. Trembling and peeling black fragments, "Although you are a demon king, you are not immortal. Have you forgotten?"

"Hehe, are those stupid humans looking for a way to kill the Demon King?"

"And I have found it." Camilla's words made the Great Demon King frown, "In the Northern Light Temple. I have been monitoring there for hundreds of years. Although I failed to steal what I wanted, I found a A plan, a plan to kill you."

"Kill me?" The Great Demon King shrugged indifferently.

Bairiel clenched his staff tightly and took a step forward involuntarily.No matter what, he would never allow anyone to try to hurt the man beside him!

"Don't forget, among all the demon kings, you are the most threatening to human beings. You can easily determine their life and death. So it is understandable for them to want to get rid of you. If I say..." Camilla gasped for breath, and the pain made her curl up suddenly, "If I say that I peeked at the contents of that plan, can you guarantee Corian's life?"

Bailiel couldn't help but hold the hand of the Great Demon King.The Demon King smiled reassuringly at his bride, and then raised the corners of his lips: "Yes. I guarantee that no one can hurt her."

The Mirror Witch let out a breath, and the brilliance in her eyes gradually dimmed: "The plan said that as long as you get six of the twelve sacred artifacts, you can kill the devil with a special sword. So you See, I've removed a small portion of the threat for you as a trade giveaway."

The black hole curved upwards, and Bairiel guessed it was a smile.The witch stroked the earring with her remaining two fingers, and a round mirror suddenly appeared on the floor.

"The glory of St. Andrea..." The Great Demon King seemed to dislike this gift very much, frowning and putting his palm on top of the mirror.The simple and unsophisticated bronze mirror gradually became smaller and got into the palm of the demon king.

"Corian... oh, my Corian..." Camilla tore off her earring with her last strength, took out a transparent bell from her bosom, and hung the mirror earring in the center of the bell.

A slight ringing of bells...

With snow-white hair and almost transparent skin, a girl who looked only in her teens appeared beside the witch.Camilla took one last look at her sleeping sister, and hung the bell on the necklace on her chest.

"My poor Corian, I'm so sorry I had to leave first." The Witch bowed her head and kissed her sister's forehead.At this moment, the blackness slowly faded from her body, and a translucent figure exactly like the girl on the ground gradually floated into the air.

"You see, we are really twins, aren't we?" the witch said with a smile before disappearing.

"As expected of a resident of Atreis Island..."

"what?"

"Nothing." The Great Demon King shook his head, "Xion!"

The servant, who had only recovered one arm, immediately appeared in the room.

The big devil glanced impatiently at the girl who was still sleeping at his feet: "Put this one on the ground to a safe place."

"Yes." The servant immediately led the girl out of the room.

Bairiel didn't care where Corian was taken, his mind was full of that despicable plan to kill the Demon King.

Facing the messy carpet, the Great Demon King couldn't help but frowned irritably: "This room is full of raised dust, I'm afraid we have to take a bath again."

Noticing the anxious mood of the Great Demon King, Bailiel immediately reached out to wrap his arms around him: "I want a milk bath!"

"Okay." A smile suddenly reappeared on the handsome face.
