On the white icy plain where the cold wind howled, a violent snowstorm raged endlessly.
This was a frozen land that was even crueler than the North and South Poles, a harsh environment where even monsters found it difficult to survive. Apart from the howling wind, there was no other sound here, like a dead world. No one knew when this world had formed. Perhaps it was thousands of years ago, or perhaps tens of thousands of years ago. It had maintained this dead silence for a very, very long time.
But now, this dead silence seemed to have broken …
In the southwest of the frozen icy plain, a black city quietly stood up.
This was Frostfire City.
If one were to look down from high up in the sky, one would find that this black city was actually two circles, one big and one small. The big circle was a tall black ice wall that stretched for hundreds of kilometers, while the small circle was a volcano that was still emitting green smoke. The large circle wrapped around the small circle. It seemed very abrupt in the vast expanse of white tundra.
A gap had been dug out of the volcano, and high-temperature magma flowed out through the gap, forming a river that slowly flowed into the city. The heat emitted by the magma neutralized the cold of the frozen icy plain, forming a unique warm climate area.
Living in this warm climate area were the low-level demons that Roy had summoned from the upper level of the Abyss. These demons were now the residents of Frostfire City, and the object of their loyalty was Roy, the demon lord. As demons, there were very few existences that knew their place, but under the whips of the demon warlords, they could still do their jobs well.
From the flowing magma river, the demons fished out the magma that was about to cool down and solidify with sulfur and poisonous smoke, loaded it into carriages pulled by enormous demon worms, and transported it out. These magma were used to build houses and buildings, and the black magma that was like asphalt would quickly take shape under the cold wind …
These demon worms were the clansmen of the large worm that Roy had discovered back then. There were indeed many demon worms living underground in this icy plain, but only the one that Roy had discovered was the largest. In order to distinguish them, Roy even gave this demon worm a name and called it Big Black. Big Black had now become Fat Tiger's playmate, and he was mainly dragged by Fat Tiger to play. It seemed like Fat Tiger was walking Big Black, but every time they ran on the icy plain, Big Black was like Fat Tiger's dog leash, so it was hard to say who was walking who …
As for Big Black's demon worms, they did not have as high intelligence as Big Black. They were now enslaved by the demons and used as transportation tools. The demons placed crucibles on the backs of these worms, and a worm could place more than ten of them on its back. Just like the carriages of a train, they pulled the boiling magma through Frostfire City and sent it to every construction site they needed.
In the center of the city was an enormous demon palace that had long been completed. This demon palace covered an area of nearly ten thousand square meters, and it was more than thirty meters tall. It was the largest building in the entire city, and the palace had inherited the dark and ferocious style of the demons. The palace did not have a top and was vertical and hollow. The walls on both sides were carved into a pair of enormous demon wings that hugged and closed, but they did not completely close, leaving a gap that was the front entrance of the palace.
Inside the palace, four enormous demon statues stood facing each other against the walls, occupying the four directions of north, south, east, and west. The four statues were in a kneeling posture, and the direction of their kneeling was naturally the center of the palace, where an even taller statue stood.
It was none other than Roy's statue …
It stood straight in the middle of the palace, its three pairs of demon wings spread slightly, and its hands were holding Frostmourne, which was inserted straight into the ground. This statue was carved vividly, almost like a replica of Roy. Even the face of the statue was covered like Roy was wearing the Cold Winter Armor, leaving only a pair of shining red pentagram-shaped pupils looking down.
This statue of Roy was Benia's masterpiece. In her words, as a demon lord, Roy had to have his own symbol in his territory, so even though Roy had always felt that such a statue was very shameful, he could only helplessly adapt …
Below the statue of Frostmourne was Roy's throne. It was still a frozen throne formed of black ice crystals, and within a hundred meters of the throne, it was deliberately shaped into a frost environment to represent Roy's identity as a frost demon.
After the completion of this demon palace, it basically meant that the main body of the city was roughly completed. Now, the demons were still building functional buildings such as smelting factories and forging factories in the city. At that time, the weapons forged from these factories would be used to arm Roy's troops.
At this moment, Roy was sitting on the frozen throne, and on the ice in front of the throne, a one-year-old baby was staggering across the ice.
The baby was not afraid of the cold of the ice. He was not wearing any other clothes and was only wearing a diaper. He crawled forward on his hands and feet, but before he could crawl too far, a demon claw would reach out and gently hook his diaper with a sharp, hook-like nail on the index finger and pull him back to his original spot.
After returning to the original point, the baby giggled happily and continued to crawl forward. He crawled out, hooked back, and then continued crawling, repeating this cycle several times.
This was … a game between Roy and Sareth. Lich Cassandra was behind Roy's throne, watching helplessly at the interaction between her adopted son and his master.
"You're really bored …" Julia walked into the hall and could not help but complain when she saw this scene. "You can play so happily with a cub …"
"Hmph!" Roy did not refute and raised his eyebrows at Julia. "I have to find something to do, right? By the way, I'll show you something fun! "
With that, Roy hooked Sareth back with his finger and placed him in his palm. Then he pointed to the side. "Come, Sareth, perform!"
Although Sareth was only a one-year-old baby, he seemed to understand Roy's words. Under Julia's surprised gaze, Sareth opened his mouth and gurgled. A black shadow arrow flew out of his mouth and shot toward the wall on the side.
Although this shadow arrow was not powerful enough and only flew to the wall before dissipating, it was enough to surprise Julia.
"He can already release magic?!" Julia asked in surprise. "When did this happen?"
"I just discovered it!" Roy turned Sareto in his palm to face him. "This little guy's first Shadow Arrow was aimed at me!"
"Amazing magic talent!" Julia walked over and took Sareth. She placed her hands under his ribs and lifted him up to observe him repeatedly. "Is this the power of a Child of Taboo?"
Roy stood up from the throne. "I've checked. There are no magic circuits in his body. The magic he releases is purely mobilized by his affinity with dark power!"
"Other than dark power, can he use other magic?" Julia asked.
"And flames!" Roy nodded. "This might be because his father, Kha-Beleth, is a flame demon, but I found that he seems to have an affinity for all elemental powers …"
"So you're training his affinity for frost now?" Julia glared at Roy angrily.
Roy gently raised his hand and made Sareth flip up and down in his palm, causing Sareth to giggle. He seemed to like this game very much. While teasing him, Roy replied to Julia, "Of course, as you can see, his physical fitness is super strong. The frost near the throne is more than -70 ° C, but he doesn't feel cold at all. This means that he's very adapted to this environment. Other than his affinity for frost, I can't think of any other explanation."
Hearing this, Julia suddenly fell silent. Then she whispered, "Darling, do you think that if we have a child in the future, they will have talent like Sareth?"
Roy was stunned for a moment before putting his arm around her waist. "Of course. Don't forget, you're a true fallen angel, and I'm stronger than Kha-Beleth. Our descendants will have unparalleled talent!"
After hearing Roy's words, Julia nodded in relief and then looked at Sareth with longing.
Ever since she became Roy's partner, Julia had always wanted to give birth to a descendant for Roy. But from the beginning until now, during the year in Frostfire City, even though the two of them had been working hard every day, Julia still did not move, making her almost crazy.
If it were not for the fact that Benia had yet to conceive Roy's child, Julia would not have known what to do.
Yes, Benia had now become one of the matriarchs. She had finally seized the opportunity to climb into Roy's bed, and Julia had long realized that there might be such a day. In the world of Ashan, Benia had proved her loyalty to Roy, so Julia accepted the change in Benia's status without much surprise.
But for some reason, Benia was also unable to conceive Roy's descendant. It seemed that the more powerful a demon was, the more difficult it was for them to reproduce.
And Sareth's existence stimulated Julia's thoughts. She was now considering whether she should imitate the methods of other demons and have sex with Roy during solar eclipses or lunar eclipses, using mysterious power to create a child of Nephalem …
