Roy was a demon. To this world, he was just an outsider, so it was naturally impossible for him to know too much about the situation in Ashan. Among the various books brought out from Ulambus, most of the records were mysterious, and everything had to be linked to the Dragon God. It was as though this was the only way to appear impressive, making Roy unable to tell whether it was true or false.
On the other hand, Giovanni, a native vampire who had lived for hundreds of years, could see more clearly. Be it the Dragon of Order Asha, the Dragon of Chaos Urgash, or even the other six Elemental Dragons, they might have indeed existed in this world, but their myths were already far away. Now, only the intelligent species here were playing out the history of Ashan. The power of the Dragon Gods might have left behind, but it was definitely not much. Even as time passed, these powers were weakening more and more.
In Giovanni's opinion, if that spectral dragon was really the power that Asha had bestowed upon Arantir, wouldn't it mean that Arantir, who controlled the Death Incarnation, was really Death? A Death God was definitely immortal. If Arantir was really so strong, then he could directly unify the entire world of Ashan …
In recent years, with the long-term research of the mages in Bracada who did not believe in gods, some people believed that the demons in this world were not descendants of the Dragon of Chaos Urgash. Because as people continued to understand demons, they discovered that many demons did not only come from the demon lair of Sheogh, but also from a place called the Abyss. That place should be another outer world. If demons were really descendants of Urgash, then how could this Abyss be explained? Therefore, a saying gradually appeared that the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, did not create demons. He only opened a door to the Abyss and contacted those demons …
From this, even creatures like angels and titans were being questioned. But this saying was difficult to accept for the people who believed in the Dragon God in this world, so this saying was quickly suppressed …
After obtaining the information he wanted to know, things became much easier. Roy summoned a frozen chair and sat down. He said to Giovanni, "Cooperate with me. What do you want?"
But Giovanni did not answer directly. Instead, he asked cautiously, "Forgive me for being presumptuous, Your Excellency Demon. From the direction you're heading, you seem to be heading to Eeofol? So, are you one of them from Sheogh? "
"No! My name is Osiris, and I come from the Abyss! "Roy did not need to hide anything from him and directly revealed his origins.
Giovanni might have expected this answer, so he was not surprised. But it made Giovanni even more excited. According to his understanding of demons, demons from the Abyss were stronger demons, and the Abyss demons he encountered on the battlefield were often very troublesome existences.
Moreover, compared to the will of the world that had always rejected creatures from other worlds, the natives here did not mind so much. After all, the underground races from Nighon had even allied with demons, so when Giovanni faced Roy, he did not feel embarrassed about his betrayal at all.
"Lord Osiris!" Giovanni called Roy's name respectfully. "Are you going to Eeofol to meet up with the demon army?"
If a powerful demon like Osiris were to arrive in Eeofol, he would probably be able to gather a massive demon army in an instant, right? Giovanni thought. He knew the strict class barriers among demons very well. He felt that as long as this demon named Osiris stood in Eeofol, those low-level demons would immediately kneel under his armor …
"No!" But what Giovanni did not expect was that Roy gave an answer that surprised him. "On the contrary, I'm here to kill a demon this time. He's my enemy!"
"Uh …" Giovanni was a little speechless. Of course, he could still understand because demons themselves were not so united. He asked carefully, "Then, can I ask you who your enemy is?"
"Xeron! High-rank demon Xeron. Do you know anything about him? "Roy asked.
Hearing this name, Giovanni gasped in surprise. "How … how can it be him?"
"Is there something wrong?" Roy sneered at him.
"Uh, no!" Giovanni hurriedly said. "I just didn't expect it … With all due respect, Your Excellency Osiris, if you really want to find Xeron, then your enemy is probably quite powerful!"
"What do you mean?" Roy leaned back in his seat calmly. In fact, he was quite curious. It had been a long time since he last came to this world. What was Xeron's situation now?
Giovanni deliberated for a moment before explaining, "Four years ago, when the demon army attacked Steadwick, the capital of Erathia, I heard that Xeron's army was stopped by the elves of Iroland and the dragons. Xeron was also beaten to death by the dragons. The dragons failed to keep Xeron's soul and let him escape … But not long after, he returned. After returning, I don't know what stimulated him, but he frantically gathered his army. Now, he's the strongest and most powerful demon commander in Eeofol. Not only that, but he also seems to have the attention and support of Demon Sovereign Kha-Beleth. If he's really your enemy, then it's equivalent to more than half of the demon kingdom being your enemy!"
"Really?" Roy could not help but frown. He really did not expect Xeron to develop so well now.
When Roy first came to this world, Xeron was leading the demon army. At that time, the other high-rank demons still felt like they were on equal footing with him. In order to compete for soul resources, they secretly competed with each other, and there was even a traitor, Zeda, who did not listen to orders at all. Roy did not expect that after so many years, Xeron would actually become a hot figure in the demon army.
Moreover, judging from the situation described by Giovanni, Xeron had lost all his troops when he went deep alone. In the end, he was surrounded and killed by the dragons. It seemed that after this time, Xeron had some psychological trauma, so he crazily expanded his army and relied on a large number of troops to regain his sense of security …
Roy had originally thought that he would slowly inquire about Xeron after arriving in Eeofol. Now that he had met Giovanni and learned about Xeron's situation from him in advance, Roy had to think of a way to make some changes.
Since Xeron had a powerful demon army protecting him, he could not rush forward rashly. He had to get a powerful army. Just the undead army led by Cassandra, even if there were some high-level undead, would probably not be enough.
After thinking about it, Roy made a decision and said to Giovanni, "Giovanni, although you haven't said what you want, I can roughly guess it. I can promise you that after I kill Xeron, I can help you rule the entire kingdom of Heresh. But before that, you have to show the sincerity of a partner!"
Giovanni was a little hesitant. After understanding Roy's goal, he began to doubt whether his decision was right. Demon Xeron was equally powerful. Now that two powerful demons were fighting each other, it was hard to say who would win and who would lose. If his bet failed, he would lose everything.
Seeing Giovanni's hesitation, Julia, who had been listening quietly, snorted coldly. "Are you doubting our strength? Let me tell you, in front of you is a demon who is about to become a demon lord! "
Giovanni raised his head in surprise and looked at Roy in disbelief, but Roy sat there expressionlessly and did not express anything.
Of course, Giovanni knew what a demon lord meant. But although he knew that Roy was powerful, he did not expect Roy to be so powerful …
"This … In that case, things will be easy!" Giovanni suddenly became excited. "If you're determined to compete with Demon Lord Kha-Beleth, then you might be able to attract more demons to join you! This way, forming a powerful army won't be a problem. "
Roy's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "What do you mean?"
Giovanni explained. "Although Xeron is powerful, he also has competitors in the demon camp. But Xeron has the support of Kha-Beleth, so the other demon commanders can only suppress their ambitions. If an existence coveting the position of demon lord appears at this time, it might win the loyalty of these demon commanders and fight against them as equals."
Roy understood. The situation that Giovanni was talking about might be like the battle between the demon lords of the Abyss. Now, the demons of Sheogh were only controlled by Demon Lord Kha-Beleth, so they had no choice. But if another demon lord appeared at this time, the demons would have a new direction to join.
Of course, the premise was that Roy could really promote to demon lord in this world this time …
While Roy was thinking, Giovanni continued excitedly, "In addition to attracting other demons to join us, I can also contact other vampire lords. At that time, I might be able to obtain a large number of vampire troops. If I think of a way to gather a large undead army, I'll be invincible …"
Before he had even seen anything, Giovanni had already fallen into a beautiful fantasy. His blurry and greedy eyes seemed to have already seen the scene of him ascending the throne in Heresh and becoming the undead monarch …
