"Your Royal Highness, they are the last survivors of this village."
Josiah was in a trance. He could only hear someone calling out to him. It was a deep but concerned voice.
"Your Royal Highness?"
Josiah's memory finally cleared up a little. A hideous monster was standing beside him, and the concerned voice came from the monster's mouth.
Sinful Demon – Zenas.
The monster's name flooded into Josiah's memory. Surprisingly, Josiah was not afraid of the monster's horrifying appearance.
"The survivors …"
Josiah instinctively looked in the direction the monster was pointing at. Flames shrouded the surroundings, corpses were piled up on the ground, and the air was filled with an indescribable smell of blood and charred flesh.
This village had just experienced a massacre.
The surviving villagers were gathered together by a thorny plant. The clothes they wore were not the modern clothes that Josiah was familiar with. Instead, they looked a bit like the clothes worn in the Middle Ages.
"Your Royal Highness! According to your orders, the bandits who looted this village have all been killed. Do you want to kill these villagers as well? "
The Sinful Demon, Zenas, spoke again. He was nearly two meters tall and looked like a hybrid between a lion and a lizard. As he spoke, he spat out green flames from his mouth.
He held a double-edged spear with his scaly hands. The surface of the spear was flowing with a magma-like liquid.
The villagers who were tied up by the thorns looked at him in horror when they saw the ferocious demon approaching.
"No need. Tie them up first."
Josiah had not yet figured out what was going on. A few seconds ago, he was still in his office working on his game plan. A few seconds later, he came to this strange world with a … demon that obeyed his every word.
This transmigration was too sudden. There was no warning at all.
Fortunately, Josiah's adaptability was no different from a slug's. In addition, the original soul in this body had not dissipated, so Josiah did not show any abnormalities and accepted his current situation.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness."
Zenas obeyed Josiah's order. He waved his scaly hand towards the void, and a portal made of green light appeared in front of Josiah.
More than ten short Lesser Ghouls jumped out from the portal and grabbed the villagers who were entangled by the thorny vines, dragging them into the portal as they struggled helplessly and wailed in pain.
Josiah sorted out his memories. Demons were a race of many races. The Lesser Demons were at the bottom of society. They had low intelligence, and their physical qualities were no different from humans. The only advantage they had was their fast reproduction rate.
Zenas, on the other hand, was a high-ranked sinful demon who acted as Joshua's personal bodyguard. Just from his bold appearance, one could tell how powerful the sinful demons were.
Most of the Demons looked very different from humans. What made Josiah rejoice was that although his race was the highest of the Demons, his appearance was surprisingly no different from humans. The only difference was that he had two horns on his forehead.
Josiah could accept transmigration, but what Josiah couldn't accept was that he had transmigrated into a non-human creature.
A noble Chaos Demon? That sounds pretty good.
"Let's go back, Zenas," Josiah said.
"Your Royal Highness, aren't you going to take this opportunity to invade the surrounding cities?"
"Invade the cities?"
Josiah once again looked at his surroundings. According to his organized memories, Josiah knew why he was here.
This naive Demon Prince had snuck into the human world out of curiosity.
After escaping through the portal, a group of human merchants accepted him. But just as they were resting in a village, they were robbed by a group of bandits.
The village was naturally massacred inside and out. In the end, the Demon Prince couldn't stand it and summoned his guards from the Underworld to kill the bandits.
But from the fear in the villagers' eyes, being kidnapped by demons was far more desperate than being robbed by bandits.
"Not interested, not interested."
Of course, Josiah didn't care about the Demon Prince's pitiful curiosity. He also didn't have the mood to attack the humans.
"That's right, Zenas, there's still someone alive."
Josiah walked into the portal and pointed at a figure that was trying to escape from a pile of corpses in the distance.
That bandit was very smart. He pretended to be a corpse and fooled everyone, but he was too impatient.
"Understood."
Josiah didn't need to say everything to understand Zenas.
Accompanied by horrifying screams and the sound of flesh being torn apart, Josiah walked into the portal.
… …
The environment in the Underworld wasn't as bad as Josiah imagined. At least the sky was blue, and the surrounding temperature was warm.
Volcanoes that could erupt at any time, lava flowing on the ground, and the sky covered in thick volcanic ash. These scenes that would appear in modern people's standard impression of hell couldn't be found here.
The portal led to a garden. The ground was filled with unknown flowers that emitted light blue light particles.
If it wasn't for the ferocious Demon standing beside Josiah, Josiah wouldn't believe that this was the Underworld.
"Your Highness, should we lock these humans in cages?" Zenas asked.
"Lock them up first and feed them some food. Don't let them starve to death. I still have use for them."
After giving this order to his guards, Josiah walked into the depths of the castle.
In his memory, this was the capital of the Underworld, Anorod. The meaning of this city in the language of the Underworld was' the border of the abyss'. Josiah wasn't too sure about the specific meaning, but in short, the place where Josiah was currently at was the core of the main city.
This was the palace where the ruler of the Underworld and his descendants lived.
Josiah walked around the complicated paths in the main city according to his memory and returned to the area where the Demon Prince originally lived.
"This place is really messy."
Josiah entered the inner part of the castle. The Demon Prince's life was … much more messy than Josiah had imagined.
Originally, it looked like a rather luxurious room, but the ground was piled up with unknown items. Even someone like Josiah, who wasn't obsessed with cleanliness, couldn't help but frown when he saw the mess.
Josh could barely make out the books that were spread open and some crystals that were scattered on the ground. The rest of the items were all oddly shaped trinkets.
Weren't there any servants here to clean the room? Josiah once again recalled his backup memories.
He finally understood that the junk piled up in the room was all the 'research results' of this Demon Prince.
Josiah Anorod, the third son of the ruler of the Underworld, Notren. This Demon Prince was different from his talented eldest brother and second sister. Josiah was born a little different from others.
He was already seventeen years old, and he would always invent some strange things. Every once in a while, he would cause chaos in the entire city. Now, basically all the demons in the city used a very vivid and derogatory term to describe this Demon Prince.
"Despicable humans!"
Actually, compared to humans, Josiah was more inclined to be a gnome or a dwarf.
However, this Third Prince had shown talent in 'Mechanical Engineering', 'Magical Engineering', 'Crystal Construction', and other subjects. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was insane.
And the junk stuffed in his room was the unfinished product of his previous research.
'Magical Imaging Device' and 'Shadow Stone'.
Josiah rummaged through his memories about the introduction and functions of these two gadgets. After that, Josiah was more willing to name these two things.
'Video Camera' and 'Memory Card'.
"Interesting."
Josiah originally didn't know what he wanted to do after he transmigrated to this world.
Not everyone liked to fight and become stronger as their ultimate goal in life. Josiah wasn't very interested in things like power.
The legacy left behind by the Third Prince gave Josiah an idea.
Maybe he could make movies in another world. If that didn't work out, he could make some card games like Magic Card or Hearthstone. Then, he could write a few novels and draw some comics. Wouldn't that be great?
