Danas was a very smart person.
Moreover, he was already a very smart person from a very young age.
He began to remember things almost at the same time he was born, and the first scene he saw was the scene of the man who claimed to be his father killing his mother with his own hands.
As Danas grew up, he realized that the man who claimed to be his father had done the same thing many times.
That was because he needed descendants who inherited his half-demon physique, but the other half of the descendant's bloodline couldn't possibly be a half-demon's.
As a result, in the long years, in order to obtain descendants with excellent bloodlines, the first thing the father did was to carefully select the "hotbed of descendants".
Therefore, this father had many children, but the mothers of those children were not the same person.
Of course, due to the different mothers, the descendants who inherited the half-demon's bloodline were also different.
Some were very outstanding.
Some were flawed.
Some inherited the thicker blood of the half-demon.
Some only had a little bit of the half-demon's physique. Rather than saying that they were half-demons, it would be better to say that they were Demons with a little bit of half-demon's bloodline.
But no matter what, as long as they were his father's descendants, as long as they had a little bit of the half-demon's physique, they would be what his father needed.
As for the mother, his father didn't need it.
Therefore, the mother who gave birth to his father's descendants was naturally abandoned.
Soon, those children would also be abandoned.
However, they weren't disposed of as useless trash. Instead, they were used as a stepping stone to achieve success, becoming a sacrifice for his father's ambition.
Danas first suspected that his father would harm him when he was only two years old.
At that time, Danas met his father for the second time since he was born. From his father's eyes, he saw something that shouldn't have appeared.
It was as if he was evaluating the value of an item, thinking about how to use it, or simply destroying it.
From then on, Danasi started to hide himself on purpose.
First, he hid the fact that he began to remember things since he was born, pretending to be ignorant and naive.
Then, he hid his emotions, disguised his personality, and pretended to be indifferent to everything.
Such concealment and disguise became more and more frequent as time passed, causing his father to look down on him more and more. In the end, he simply ignored him and only thought of Danas when he needed it.
Thanks to this, Danas was able to quietly investigate in the dark, and finally discovered more and more secrets.
Including the reason for his birth.
Including the purpose of Helimis.
Of course, the so-called [Demon Refinement Ritual] wasn't actually meant to refine demons and magical creatures, but rather the half-demon descendants who carried their father's bloodline. Those demons and magical creatures were nothing more than supplementary items used to fill up our "ingredients", or perhaps it could be said that they were stimulants to be used as sacrifices to feed the monster named "Demon Dragon Magel".
Thus, Danas, who had obtained all the truth, resolutely decided to rebel.
Against his father.
Rebel against his fate.
This was the original will of the male demon named Danas.
Fortunately, Magel's training had reached the final stage, and it didn't matter if he had one more offering.
In addition to the terrible talent and potential that Danas displayed, Helimis had no intention of using such a 'trash' as a sacrifice to feed his future half, in case there were problems with the progress and direction of Magel's cultivation.
Just like that, Danas became something that Helimis didn't need.
However, in order to prevent himself from losing his usefulness in the eyes of his father and end up getting rid of like his mother, Danasi displayed his talent in creating magic.
Because of this, Danas became a character that would not be abandoned, nor would he be valued. He was almost dispensable, tasteless, and a pity to discard.
At first glance, it seemed that he became the disciple of the Star Ambassador because of his own hard work. However, Danas knew that his father didn't value him at all. He even looked down on him and had no intention of handing over the truly important matters to him.
Helimis' attitude towards Danas was to use him, use him, and use him again.
Until the day Magel matured and Helimis' revenge on the world began, Danas lost his usefulness.
He would be thrown out and sent to restrain Sean. Originally, he had the idea that Helios would send him to his death and make use of the last bit of his energy.
Otherwise, knowing that Shien had transcendent-level power, why would Helimis send Danas, a person who could only play with puppets, to hold him back?
Helimis just wanted Danas to use his life to slow down Shien.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Danas was also waiting for this day.
"I've been waiting for the day that you would meet a strong enemy like this and be defeated."
"I've been waiting for the day that you would act in a high profile and not pay attention to me, giving me the chance to take advantage of this day."
"I've also been waiting for the day that you would be defeated and lie in front of me, allowing me to do as I please."
"I've planned a lot for this."
Just like what Danas had said, Helimis was destined to leave today.
Even if his plan succeeded and he became a complete demon, Danas would find a chance to break the seal of the Hall of Glory and release the three goddesses and six demons.
Coupled with the Hero, if these existences were to deal with Helimis together, even if Helimis became a complete demon, Danas was sure that he would lose without a doubt.
At that time, he would take the opportunity to attack. How could his chances of winning not be high?
"As it turns out, fate is on my side."
"I wanted to lead you to defeat and face an undefeatable opponent, so the Tri-Clan Conference came and gathered all existences that could threaten you."
"I wanted you to be defeated so badly that you would not be able to resist and could only be at my mercy. In the end, you were poisoned by the Poison Demon and could not use any power at all. Otherwise, I would really have to ask the princess to help me."
"In the past, I've always been thinking about how to make you take the initiative to face existences like the three goddesses and six demons. Under such circumstances, the Hero actually came to this world."
"When I knew that the Hero was summoned again, I knew that my chance had finally come."
It could be said that after knowing Shien's identity, Danas began to plan everything with a purpose.
He knew that once Shien's identity was exposed, the three races would definitely fall into chaos and dispute.
He also knew that the three goddesses and six demons would not just watch the chaos and dispute happen. In the end, it was very likely that the Tri-Clan Conference from a thousand years ago would reappear.
Once the Tri-Clan Conference reappeared, Helimis would definitely not be able to resist making a move at Magel's stage of maturity.
Therefore, Danas had been planning to expose Shien's identity and lead the result to the point that he hoped for.
Yes.
The exposure of Shien's identity was also part of Danas's plan.
In the incident in the capital, Mara was Danas's partner. It was too easy for him to intervene a little and force Shien to expose his identity.
"If not for the Hero, I was planning to use the identity of the leader of the Old Demons Faction, [Fata Morgana], to release the Evil God Lilith and let her wreak havoc in the human world, attracting the three goddesses and six demons to take action."
In other words, as early as the first time Shien met Danas, he had already stepped into Danas's chessboard.
Danas's actions were all to make Helimis and the top figures of the God Race and Demon Race confront each other.
Only then would he have a chance to take action against Helimis.
Unfortunately, even he himself was not sure if the Evil God Lilith alone could attract the three goddesses and six demons to descend, and if she could lead Helimis to fight against the strong and finally lead him to defeat.
Therefore, Shien's appearance really gave him a big surprise.
"Now, the result of my plan has finally appeared in front of me."
Danas smiled at Helimis.
"Tell me, if you don't leave now, will it be possible?"
Hearing Danas's words and seeing the smile on Danas's face, the uneasiness in Helimis' heart finally turned into fear.
As if he had met Danas for the first time, he no longer looked at Danas with contempt or contempt like before. Instead, he looked at Danas as if he was looking at a strange monster, full of fear.
"Don't … don't kill me …!"
Helimis could only beg for mercy in a sorry state under the torture of the pain.
"Hahaha!" Danas couldn't help but laugh. His laughter was melancholy and sarcastic. "So, you, who are arrogant and self-centered, who see everything in the world as the target of revenge, and who are cruel and heartless enough to sacrifice your children, will also beg for mercy from others?
"Thinking that a person like you is actually my father, the youngest son of the Demon King, a half-demon who has lived for nearly ten thousand years, even I feel ashamed for you.
"A guy like you, even if you become a complete demon, is still someone who can't be seen in public, a small character that has always been looked down upon by those demon sisters, right?"
As he said this, Danas's smile suddenly became strange.
"Don't worry, Father. As your son, I will inherit everything from you. As the seventh demon, I will live with dignity and glory that you don't have."
Hearing this, Helimis' heart trembled.
Inherit everything from me?
As the seventh demon?
Could … could it be …!?
"Have you thought of it?" "Since you can devour the flesh and blood of your own children to cultivate Magel and become a complete demon, then it's also possible for me, the child, to devour you, the father, and become a complete demon, isn't that right?" Danas looked at Helimis with a different gaze and said, "Since you can devour the flesh and blood of your own children to become a complete demon, isn't it?
"Don't forget, I also have the bloodline of a half-demon. Don't you think it's very reasonable to devour my father, who is of the same origin, to become a demon?"
This was Danas' ultimate goal.
Resist?
That was also his goal.
But his ultimate goal was to take revenge on this cold-blooded and ruthless father, and … to step into the realm that everyone longed for.
This might be Danas' greatest luck.
After all, the timing of his birth was really good. He didn't need to spend countless years and effort to plan like Helimis did, and there were ready-made results in front of him.
There was only one thing he needed to do.
That was to take away the fruits of their labor.
Understanding all this, the fear in Helimis' heart finally exploded.
But it was too late to be afraid and regret at this time.
The last thing Helimis saw was Danas opening his mouth and biting down on his throat.
Up until now, the most shrill scream had resounded from the bottom of this gloomy and lightless cliff.
…
Outside the cliff, at the entrance.
A dark-skinned, exotic girl stayed here quietly.
Her eyes turned and stared at the entrance of the cliff. It was not until a long time later that she saw a figure slowly walking out.
The figure was naturally the girl's partner.
However, compared to when they first entered, this partner of theirs had undergone a huge change.
The corner of his mouth hung blood that didn't seem to belong to him.
His eyes became full of oppression.
The atmosphere around him was no longer like that of a weak scholar, like a gentle and refined noble man. Instead, he was like a king. Wherever he passed, space seemed to distort.
Seeing this, the girl understood.
"It seems that you have succeeded."
The girl smiled sweetly.
Danas replied with a smile. Even though the atmosphere was different from before, and the feeling he gave off was completely different, his elegant demeanor was still engraved in his words and actions, making him look like a highly-educated prince with excellent etiquette.
"Thank you for your support during this period, Princess."
Danas solemnly bowed to the girl.
"I also have my own fun."
The girl accepted Danas's bow with a clear conscience.
Although he had already been reborn and was no longer the weak young man from the Devil Race, she was still an existence in the same realm as him. She was in a cooperative relationship with him, not his subordinate, so she was naturally qualified to receive his respect.
"Your transcendence path has been completed, what do you plan to do next?"
The girl asked.
Danas wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth, looked up at the sky, and his eyes shone brightly like never before.
Danas didn't have any plans for the future.
"Becoming a demon, that is only my goal, not my dream."
Danas said.
"Then what is your dream?"
The girl continued to ask.
Danas replied softly.
"I want to know what is the true truth of this world."
After giving such a reply, Danas suddenly smiled.
It was a rare and excited smile.
"It's time to carry out the final plan."
Danas's words caused the young girl to be puzzled.
"What other plans do you have?"
The girl asked the third question in confusion.
This time, Danas's answer caused the young girl to hold her breath.
Because …
"I want to bring the Demon King back to life."
Danas's soft voice entered the girl's ears, shaking her heart.
Danas didn't care about the girl anymore. As if he wanted to see through the truth of this world, he stared at the sky and spoke slowly.
"Let me awaken the past history of this world."
"The ancient war shall be restarted from this moment."
Following Danas's declaration, countless black shadows appeared around him.
Looking at this scene, even the girl was shocked for a long time.
Then, the girl sighed from the bottom of her heart.
"The true calamity is coming."
