Thump ~ Thump ~ Thump ~
The sound of high heels could be heard. There were even echoes in the corridors of the palace.
"Sir, the vice president of the Union requests an audience."
Just as the soldier finished his sentence, the door opened with a bang. This gave all the soldiers a shock, including Leier's entourage.
She looked at the man sitting in front of the large bookshelf in the room. He did not seem surprised at all.
"All of you can leave. It seems that the people from the Union have something important to discuss with me."
Demon King Richard said calmly.
"All of you can leave too."
Layel then shouted to the people behind her. They did not enter the room and nodded outside.
Soon, only the two of them were left in the room. Layel snapped her fingers. The surroundings did not change, but a circular vacuum shield appeared in the air.
"What the hell are you doing!"
With a bang, Layel slammed her hand on the table. She glared at the Demon King. She looked really angry.
"Your clothes suit you very well, but I still like your long hair."
Demon King replied with a smile. Of course, his words had the effect of adding fuel to the fire, and the effect was outstanding.
"Don't change the topic!"
Layel waved her hand and helped the Demon King clear all the documents on the table. Thanks to her, the Demon King could look at himself in the mirror on the table.
She was very angry. She was so angry that she was trembling. The Demon King saw her body trembling.
Fear and anger could coexist. She had probably come prepared this time. She was now like a bomb that could explode at any time.
"Calm down. I don't remember what I did to make you so angry. Also, you're not so cute when you're angry."
The Demon King blinked his left eye. He looked very indecent.
Layel panted, just like the Duke before.
"You've caused me a lot of trouble, a big hole. I'll, I'll be nailed to a pillar …" She trembled violently. Her eyes slowly turned red and wet. She glared at the Demon King and shouted, "I shouldn't have believed you! I should have been killed by you in the forest! "
Suddenly, a warm hand was placed on her face. She did not see the other party's movements at all.
"Calm down. You are a wise and strong woman."
Perhaps the other party had used magic to control Leila's emotions. At least she wasn't trembling so badly.
"You will be discovered."
"By whom?"
"Luyas, the Dragon Boat Empire, or our union. I can't help you cover it up. I don't have that much power."
"Don't worry, no one will find out."
The Demon King retracted his hand. The other party's emotions had completely stabilized. Layel wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Her nose was very red when she cried.
"You underestimate the abilities of humans. There are countless people with ulterior motives who will investigate your identity and past. One day, the fact that you are not a Hero will be exposed."
"Who says I'm not a hero?"
Hearing this, Layle frowned and said, "You still want to lie to me? You are clearly a demon … Ah! This is! "
At this moment, the Demon King raised his hand, and the room suddenly lit up. A ball of light that looked like the sun appeared in his palm.
"The power of the Hero! Why?! This is impossible! "
Layel was shocked. This overturned her worldview. A demon had the power of a human Hero? This would break the balance of the world.
"Now, do you still think I will be exposed?"
The Demon King retracted his hand and naturally placed it under the table.
In fact, a hole was burned in his palm, and it was quickly healing.
"What are you?"
"Your question hurts my heart."
Layel was silent. She frowned, obviously wanting to know the answer.
The Demon King sighed and said, "Since you want to know, I won't hide it from you. I need your power, so in order to express my sincerity, I will be honest with you."
Hearing this, Layel gulped. She felt her heart beat faster, and she became nervous.
"I am indeed not a human. Perhaps there is no human blood in my veins at all."
This sentence shattered Layel's fantasy. She thought … perhaps there was a part of him that was human. This was her wishful thinking.
"As I said before, to humans, I belong to the demon race. After all, to you, if you are not a human, then you are a demon. But to me … demons and humans are outsiders. I am the only one left of my race. I am neither a human nor a demon."
The Demon King sighed. He stood up and walked in front of Layel.
Layel took half a step back. She raised her head slightly and looked into the Demon King's eyes.
"I have great power, so great that every race is afraid of me. But can you imagine how lonely that is? Layel, don't be afraid of me. I hope to be friends with you. I hope that you will be the first person to understand me. "
Hearing this, Layel wanted to say something, but when she was about to speak, her throat seemed to be stuck. She could only open and close her mouth like a goldfish, but no sound came out.
What was this situation?
All the blood in her body was flowing quickly. She was excited. She was thinking about things that she should not be thinking about. Was this normal? She did not know. After all, she had never experienced those things. And the other party was so … in line with her imagination.
Suddenly, the other party grabbed her hand. Layel let out a soft cry and looked at the Demon King in shock.
The Demon King placed her hand on his left chest, where his heart was. He looked at Layel and said, "This is my heart. If you don't trust me, you can destroy it. That way, you can tell the outside world my identity. You will have one more achievement and one less worry. You can also trust me. The two of us can work together. I want to create a world where there is no distinction between races. That world does not need heroes and Demon King, nor does it need war. I know this is an unrealistic dream, but I want to make it a reality. Are you willing to help me? Layel Phoenix. "
Layel listened to his voice quietly. She felt her head heat up and could not calm down. Her palm could feel the other party's heartbeat. As long as she injected a little magic power, she could kill the other party. Rationality told her in her left ear that the man in front of her was an unpredictable demon. This was just his flowery words. He could change at any time.
However, another voice came from her right ear. "You will marry a man and serve him like a slave. So what if you are arrogant now? You will still have to raise your butt obediently in the future … "
That annoying voice.
Suddenly, Layel pulled her hand back. She was panting and sweating. She looked at the Demon King and then avoided his eyes. The latter looked at her with a smile, as if everything was within his expectations.
"You win. I hope you can have a detailed plan."
The Demon King nodded. He waved his hand and the documents scattered on the ground flew back to the left. At this time, the bookshelf suddenly flipped and a large map appeared on the back.
"First, you have to become the guild leader."
"That is not up to me."
"Don't worry. You will become the guild leader. You see, isn't the guild lacking a hero …"
The Demon King asked with a smirk.
Hearing this, Layel's eyes darkened. She nodded knowingly and said, "Continue …"
