In this narrow and dark space, Tang En finally learned the truth that troubled him from Barmetos.
The God of Darkness created the demons for the same reason as the Dragons, but they were an earlier 'insurance'.
After the war with the Chaos creatures broke out, some of the demons were corrupted by the power of Chaos. When this situation first appeared, the corrupted demons looked no different from ordinary demons on the surface, so they didn't know the seriousness of the situation.
When the corruption gradually spread among the demons until the nature of Chaos was finally exposed, the situation could no longer be resolved. A large number of demons became crazy demons, and their numbers exceeded that of ordinary demons.
After Barmetos discovered this dangerous situation, he immediately began to deal with it. Of course, at this stage, demons and demons were not officially separated. After all, in the eyes of the demons, these demons corrupted by Chaos were still their compatriots, and few demons would kill them.
At this time, Barmetos began to study the possibility of reversing the corruption.
He wanted to save his corrupted people.
However, the progress of the research was much more difficult than he imagined. The more he studied, the more he discovered the terrifying characteristics of the power of Chaos — chaos, disorder, indescribable, devouring, and corruption …
Those Devils corrupted by the power of Chaos would, to a certain extent, possess the characteristics of Chaos Creatures. In the early stages of corruption, they still retained their rationality and were no different from normal Devils. In the middle stages of corruption, these Devils' desire to attack would become very vigorous and they would frequently enter a frenzied state. When they went berserk, they would not be able to distinguish between friend and foe. In the late stages of corruption, these Devils had become Chaos Creatures. They were crazy, disorderly, incommunicable, and filled with an extremely vigorous desire to attack. Moreover, their attacks would further spread the aura of Chaos!
Barmetos sensitively sensed that this was a very dangerous situation. As the number of corrupted demons increased, it was likely that the ordinary demons would completely disappear from this world, leaving only these crazy demons.
Therefore, in order to ensure the survival of the demons, Barmetos officially decided to separate the corrupted demons from the ordinary demons. He called the corrupted demons with green blood "demons", which was the abbreviation of "evil demons".
This was the origin of demons.
After the demons were separated, the two sides began to officially fight. At first, the demons occupied most of the Purgatory Abyss, but as the war developed, the number of demons increased, and the situation quietly reversed. The demons began to suppress the demons.
Barmetos noticed the subtle change in the situation and began to study whether demons could reverse the transformation.
As his research deepened, Barmetos felt deeply ignorant about the corruption of Chaos. He wanted to know more about it and made a very foolish decision. In order to understand the characteristics of demons, he decided to use his own body to feel the changes after being corrupted by Chaos.
Barmetos felt that as a powerful being created by Apophis, the God of Darkness, it should not be a problem for him to be corrupted by the aura of Chaos.
So he really did it.
In the beginning, Barmetos was indeed able to maintain his rationality. Through his personal experience, he had indeed discovered the changes after demons were corrupted and the uniqueness of demons. It really allowed him to find a way to control demons to a certain extent.
But soon, the situation began to worsen because Barmetos found that he had unknowingly been deeply corrupted by the aura of Chaos! When Barmetos finally realized that something was wrong with his body, the corruption had almost developed to an uncontrollable extent. He could not even expel the aura of Chaos in his body and could only watch as the corruption spread in his body day by day.
That's right! The great Demon King, Barmetos, in order to save the corrupted demons, was facing the crisis of becoming a demon himself!
This was simply the greatest irony.
But it had to be said that Barmetos was indeed a being created by God. In such a terrible situation, he actually found a way to save himself. Barmetos' method was to split himself, or rather, to give birth to a child.
He gathered all the corrupted energy in his body and created a split body that contained this energy. This split body could be seen as half of his body, or it could also be seen as his child.
Then, taking advantage of the war with the demons, he broke into the rear of the demons alone and sent this split 'evil version of Barmetos' to the demons.
Not only did the evil version of Barmetos inherit the knowledge of the original Barmetos, but when he split, the corrupted forces had already occupied most of Barmetos' body. Therefore, the evil version of Barmetos was even more powerful than the original Barmetos.
In addition, the evil version also grasped the method of controlling demons that the original Barmetos had discovered. Therefore, the demons that could not be controlled secretly had a leader, and this leader was the upper body of the Demon King.
This secret had always been hidden, and no demon or demon knew about it. For such a long time, the two Barmetos still controlled the warriors of both sides to kill each other on the battlefield, and at the same time, carefully maintained the balance of power between the two sides.
After splitting his upper body, Barmetos did not know if it was because he had been corrupted by the aura of Chaos, but he found that his desire to completely destroy the demons had become much weaker. Therefore, he slacked off a lot when it came to completing his mission.
And because of his own characteristics, the evil version of Barmetos was able to maintain his rationality to a certain extent. He could even communicate with the original Barmetos and use the special power of the original Barmetos. He could use the demon's senses to observe and listen to all information.
As a result, the evil version of Barmetos was, to a certain extent, even more powerful than the original Barmetos.
Looking at Barmetos' aggrieved and vigilant look, Tang En roughly sorted out his thoughts. He felt that he might have seen the truth.
The one who signed the contract with Stanley was the evil version of Barmetos. The one who sealed Winette was also him. The one who controlled the demons to invade Prandal was also him.
The original Barmetos knew all these things, but the unusually lazy him did not take the initiative to solve the problem. Instead, he chose to turn a blind eye to it.
Perhaps it was because Balmetos had maintained such a lazy state that the God of Darkness, Apophis, could not stand it anymore. The situation in this world was getting worse and worse, but his creation was slacking. So, Apophis finally sent out his emissary, Winette, to solve the mess that Balmetos had created.
The reason why Winette was still in her infantile state was probably because Apophis wanted her to not cause any disturbances to this broken world when she descended. That was why he sealed her powers and memories, so that she could quickly grow up to recover her original state after she descended.
But unexpectedly, after the original Barmetos (later known as the Demon King) received the oracle and knew about Winette, the evil version of Barmetos (later known as the Demon King) also knew about it. He even rushed to find Winette before the original.
The Demon King wanted to kill Winette.
But his power basically came from Apophis. He did not have the ability to hurt Winette who was under Apophis' protection. Therefore, the Demon King signed the contract with Stanley and transferred Winette to the human kingdom, to Stanley's castle. He also taught him the evil technique to seal Winette's power. He used Stanley's hand to seal Winette, slowly nibbling away at Winette's life, trying to kill her.
It was easy to understand why Stanley had such an arrogant ambition. Stanley received the help of the powerful "Demon King". His ambition suddenly swelled. He felt that he could conquer the whole world and become the one and only true king.
After the Demon King learned of Stanley's ambition, he thought that if Stanley became the king of humans, it would be good for him. Therefore, he readily agreed to help him.
But the Demon King did not expect that a true messenger of God from Prandal would descend at this time.
Tang En's arrival disrupted all his plans.
Not only did Tang En get close to unifying the whole Prandal ahead of time, but he also completely destroyed Stanley's ambition and crushed the whole Gris Kingdom. He even found the sealed Winette and rescued her.
Stanley's failure ruined his life, but the Demon King saved his life. As the Demon King, he did not have a useful talent because all demons had no sense of reason. Therefore, Stanley, who signed the contract with him and was killed by Tang En, became the first useful talent in his hands.
Then, Stanley changed from a human king to a demon general … Unfortunately, this guy did not have a brain from the beginning. After becoming a demon, his lack of intelligence became even more serious. Even if he could accurately execute the orders of the Demon King and control the actions of the demons, he still did not know how to maximize the power and resources in his hands.
This led to his complete failure.
After analyzing to this extent, Tang En basically understood the cause and effect. He also understood why Barmetos chose to ignore Winette at the beginning and did not even dare to confess to him directly.
Because of his upper body, the Demon King had been paying attention to this side.
Then, Tang En narrowed his eyes. Now, the problem was back to square one …
