Bride of the Great Demon King

"Only high-level demons can own a castle. A demon's castle is alive. It works by absorbing the power of its master, providing the demon with a residence and various convenient services. A castle of the highest level can even automatically produce demon servants."

……

"Many cracks appeared on the outer wall on the west side of the castle, and the longest one almost cut the wall in half. The facilities in the kitchen, cell, and small theater have not been working properly for a long time, and the space of the tomb is also smaller than before. One-third of the time, even the automatic heating system in the bathroom has stopped." Sean read the list in his hand expressionlessly.

"So...?" The Great Demon King leisurely took a sip from his black tea cup.

"I suggest that the master temporarily close the summer palace to maintain the normal energy consumption of the castle."

"Closing the summer palace? Ha! You want me to lose one of the two castles I have, just to keep the paltry stuff working? What do I want you to do then? Cook, prepare bath water, Cleaning up the room, isn't that what you should do as a servant?"

"I think you are very clear about the difference." Facing the big devil who raised his voice, Sean did not give in, "The magic power of the castle has always been provided by the owner of the castle. But you, to be honest, you are now Your strength is even difficult to maintain a castle. I really don't understand why your ability has weakened so much after you went out to treat Master Bailier's injury. Now I can only tell you clearly , if you continue to barely maintain the two castles, your strength will soon be inferior to that of the upper demons. Please don't doubt the judgment made by me who can fully perceive your strength."

"Ha! I should really take back your power." The Great Demon King said mockingly.

"If you want to make Master Bailier sad." The dark-skinned servant shrugged his shoulders. "I don't remember the deep relationship between my little bride and you!" The Great Demon King snorted coldly.

"He is my 'naming father', and I will never betray him. So, when you can't come forward, I can only protect him." Sean said calmly, "I think that moment will come soon." The meeting will come. Master, when will you choose to sleep?"

The Great Demon King pursed his lips.

"Because of possessing the power of a demon king, it is even more troublesome to recover after being severely injured. Just like Master Bailie, who was transformed by you, even if he just lost too much blood, he cannot recover on his own. He must get the same level of energy from the outside world. Speaking of which, you are too careful with Young Master Bailie, wouldn't it be okay to just give him the blood?"

"His situation is different." The Great Demon King frowned, and lightly rubbed the edge of the teacup. "He hardly absorbed my blood when he was transformed. If I gave it directly to him, I'm afraid..."

"Since the first time is acceptable, the second time will only be more painful. The probability of death is actually very small, right? Master, don't you understand that with your current strength, it's best not to provoke those bloody people?" Batman? I have always had reservations about the fact that you took the risk of using the batman's ability to transform blood energy to make your own blood more gentle and then pass it on to Master Bairiel and snatch the 'sincere blood' of the batman for him. Attitude. You need to know that as long as one link fails, if those stupid batmen really fight with you, I am afraid that you and Master Bailier will never come back!"

"That's why you can only be my servant forever." The Great Demon King chuckled, "Xion, I prefer the feeling of dancing on the tip of a knife compared to accurately calculating the probability of success. Moreover, I always succeed. The black-haired man signaled his servant to refill the teacup, and his black eyes flashed with incomparable confidence.

"Yes, I won't be standing here if you fail." The four-armed servant said coldly, "Then when do you choose to sleep? I want to make arrangements as soon as possible. And the closure of the Summer Palace, As well as which facilities in the Night Fort to abandon, you must decide as soon as possible. I am afraid that without a long period of rest, you will not be able to recover as before."

"Hehe, as for these questions..." The Great Demon King stood up, raised his eyebrows with a smile, "Didn't I tell you? Time is so precious to me, I don't intend to waste it on boring sleep Come on. Open the outermost barrier, wouldn’t it save most of the energy? Ah! My little bride should wake up. Remember to prepare lunch for two.”

"If you open the barrier, those outside..." The four-armed servant couldn't help frowning after hearing this order.

"Take it if you don't have the strength, it's as simple as that." The big devil left a word in the servant's surprised eyes, and hurried out of the room.

Bairiel rested his chin and rubbed the edge of the chessboard with his fingers.After a long time, the blond boy sighed quietly.

"What are you going to lose to me this time?" The black-haired man sitting opposite him raised his chin with a smile.

"Actually, I haven't been able to concentrate today." Bairiel said, frowning solemnly.

"Oh? Because of my goodnight kiss?" The devil kindly reminded the other party of the process of fainting yesterday.

"No, no, how is it possible!" The young man whose face was slowly turning red hurriedly waved his hands. "I mean...cough..." He cleared his throat pretending to be calm, and said slowly, imitating the tone of the Great Demon King, "The reason why I can't pay attention to the chess game is that I have been doubting what you said."

"Aha! My little bride has learned to be skeptical in a short period of time! Then please tell me, what do you suspect that I have deceived you?" The demon king seemed very interested in the answer to this question, with But a dangerous light flashed.

"You said that getting more sleep would help me grow taller. I now deeply doubt the accuracy of that statement!"

"Hey?"

"I've missed breakfast for a whole month, but I secretly asked Sean to measure it for me yesterday. I haven't grown any taller, not even a centimeter!" There are no pupils in the eyes, and raging anger must have been ignited at this moment.

"Hahahaha..." The Great Demon King couldn't help laughing, "Then, are you more sorry for the breakfast you missed, or angry about your delayed growth?"

"..." Bairiel lowered his head pretending to be sad, and took away the black queen on the chessboard, "I'm afraid there are both."

"Okay..." The Great Demon King sighed resignedly, "From tomorrow onwards, you can resume your breakfast, since you have almost absorbed the power you got in the Blood City."

"Do I have power too?" Bairiel was obviously aroused by this sentence.

"Of course. No matter what you say, you were transformed by me. Although the ceremony is not complete, you already have a lot of magic power in your body." The big devil said proudly.

"Can I just snap my fingers and heat up water like you do?"

The Great Demon King shook his head.

"Can I open the door with a snap of my fingers like you?"

The Great Demon King continued to shake his head.

"Can I just snap my fingers and make a chess piece like you?"

The Great Demon King then shook his head.

"...Then what can I use my magic power for?" The little golden head drooped in disappointment.

"My dear little bride, learning the application of magic power is a long process. You must first discover your talent." The big devil rubbed the golden hair on top of the boy's head.

"What is your talent?"

"As the great devil king, of course I am omnipotent!"

"..."

"Specifically speaking, there are indeed some aspects that I am good at. Talents vary from person to person, and you will not get my talents just because I transform you. It is a deeper level, closer to your soul attribute. thing."

"Soul attribute?"

"Have you ever heard of the seven deadly sins? Pride, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust, all the crimes derived from these seven deadly sins are the source of the devil's power. For the devil, the closest direction of depravity is His soul attributes. Demons corrupted by lust have the gift of charm, demons corrupted by rage are naturally bloodthirsty, demons corrupted by greed are always good at deceiving. The first step in using magic power is to discover Your soul attribute, only by being close to the root of your depravity can you gain the right to use dark energy."

"What about you?" Bairiel bit his lower lip and asked with some difficulty, "Why did you become the Great Demon King?"

The Great Demon King looked into Bailiel's gray eyes quietly: "Maybe I was born to be the Great Demon King? Don't you think I am naturally suitable for dark colors?"

"Well... I think I understand it." Bairiel showed a sweet smile, "My soul attribute."

The conversation in the garden was interrupted by a sudden series of loud noises, and a dark-skinned servant hurried over. "Master, Master Bairiel, I think we are in trouble. Two red dragons are breathing fire at the outer wall of the castle."
