I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“Clang!”

The black arrow and Egg's pellets struck the bone sword, slamming the Withered Thorn into Steele Baby's throat.

Next, the black arrows spread out like blood vessels, intricately probing into Steele Baby's body, blurring the entire dial.

Finally, shadows appeared beneath the hour, minute, and second hands.

【Tricked you, heehee…】

Steele Baby felt the death and intense pain spreading from its throat, and suddenly its skull cracked and its scalp festered, forcibly moving the second hand back.

The Withered Thorn was rendered ineffective.

“Huh? It's used up, but it's as if it wasn't used at all?” Li Yue realized that today's Withered Thorn was gone.

“That's right…” Under the influence of the Staff of Deception, Yingying was the same as Steele Baby.

In his illusion, he had been eaten by Steele Baby, so his consciousness was also a little dizzy.

Time went back to before Steele Baby devoured him.

Li Yue was preparing to use Soul Shock to shatter Steele Baby's brain, and also shatter its core, hoping to drop the "Demon Pocket Watch" to compensate for Yingying's injury.

But then Pang Sheng remembered the Fire Burning Valley Prophet's prediction.

“It's bad, I'm dead, just like that, enough.” Yingying stopped Pang Sheng's movements, controlling Steele Baby's tattered body, and put on a pair of broken legs connected to the shadows.

With such a small battle below the Holy City ruins, these weaklings and quasi-Demon Lord level demons couldn't possibly not know. What were they waiting for by not taking action?

“Nolamole…”

“But to him, I am still Yingying.”

“Does he want to eat the cow here?”

“Just one last step…” Yingying finally adjusted her body before advancing, looking like a solid entity.

Time finally stopped moving backwards.

“Okay.” Li Yue re-supported the bone umbrella, continuously exchanging and reinforcing it, barely holding on in the place closest to the Holy Light.

Li Yue waited, sensing the stable expansion of Yingying's magic power, very grateful for his decision to come to the Holy City.

Not conferred by the Demon Lord's book, nor praying to Chaos, but the most orthodox method for the Chosen Ones, self-awakening.

Angels, demons, and humans completely couldn't understand what had just happened to the light, only knowing that the creature and the red mist in the pure white obelisk were sucked away by the white spots under the new sun.

Finally, when the white arrow was inserted into Steele Baby's neck, the former Demon Lord's pupils rolled upwards, its body tattered, and it almost completely lost its mind.

“Ah? What pattern?” Li Yue was dumbfounded, a memorial?

“You laugh again, laugh again.” Egg used pellets to piece together the shape of a large spoon, repeatedly knocking on Steele Baby's unsightly head, even ignoring the scorching cold Holy Light.

“Continue, I'm almost done.” Sensing Li Yue's thoughts, Yingying continued to open her heart, urging him.

“I'm here, is it a surprise, is it timely?” Li Yue sensed the battlefield situation, using the constantly melting giant bone tree to sweep away the oncoming angels.

And Li Yue suddenly realized that Yingying was also repeatedly experiencing death.

“I'm awake!” Under the cover of the Staff of Deception, Egg was not affected by the illusion, sensing its almost shattered body, and regained its spirit.

At the same time, the "Attention" card in Pang Sheng's brain grooves was automatically flipped open, pasted under the shadow of the new sun.

Immediately afterwards, Steele Baby's lower body completely exploded, already unable to move back any further.

In the process of continuously killing the former Demon Lord, Li Yue realized that it was stealing with the purpose of absorbing Yingying and Egg. So if it wanted all eight of them to die, wouldn't it be even simpler?

Filled with lava, some slag was stuck between the hour, minute, and second hands, and the dial was completely scorched white.

Next, the Demon Wolf's Teeth caused internal bleeding, and the numbers on the dial were blurred by bloodstains.

Steele Baby's inner thoughts were a mess, even more so than the rhombus-shaped angels.

“Wait for me.” Yingying began to pull out the sections of the Holy Whip that were inserted into the sun, one by one.

Li Yue faithfully carried out Yingying's intentions.

Cut by petrifying light, the operation of the core was no longer smooth, and the dial was rusty…

At the same time, the war above finally re-integrated into the river of time, seeming to continue moving.

【Ugh, watermelon…】

Each time a section was pulled out, Yingying would insert a section into her own white arrow, as if using Lamont's relic to create her own spine.

“Oh, I look good.” Yingying condensed into a love heart, with eighteen sections of the Holy Whip attached to the inner circumference of the heart, like a moving three-dimensional emoji.

Yingying finally put away her body, and in the chants of angels and demons, dragged Li Yue, Egg, and the half-dead Steele Baby down, and incidentally returned the "Attention" card to Li Yue.

From the appearance of the new sun until now, Memphis, Oogie Boogie, and the others had been silent, and Li Yue was also a little panicked.

“Come on, pick a pattern as a souvenir,” Yingying said to Li Yue.

Pang Sheng's baby repeatedly died and moved backwards, its body bursting with pus, and the eight hands finally went haywire and berserk.

“Is that to say he's amazing?” Li Yue explained, very much enjoying being controlled by the shadow, “You've finished advancing, you have a demon name, what does it feel like? What level? Should I call you Nolamole from now on?”

My prediction was aimed at the situation at the time, and judging from the results, obviously, Yingying and Egg almost being eaten by Steele Baby was not the worst ending…

“It feels very powerful, quasi-Demon Lord level…”

The upper, lower, right, and left corners of the new sun were already very sharp, the number of angels also decreased slightly, the angels' singing gradually subsided, and the entire continent's breathing seemed to speed up as a result.

“Is it okay?” Li Yue felt that Yingying was stabilizing, feeling a little worried.

“Croak…” Steele Baby, rotting, was embedded under the new sun, its body continued to collapse, and its mouth babbled incoherently.

White shadows were everywhere, angels, demons, and humans were all fixed in place, and then twisted to death, their corpses becoming rain in the air.

“Enough, it doesn't have any ideas anymore, its head is blank, it is now equivalent to a demon relic.” Yingying completely sensed Steele Baby's situation, even more unsightly than when she had just opened the Soul Altar and released it.

【I knew you would come…】

“Hehe.” Li Yue scratched his head with his tentacles, chuckled twice, “Good if it looks good.”

Li Yue silently praised.

Li Yue used the Demon Illustrated Handbook to explore the past, and the conclusion was the same.

Holy Whip as spine, gods and demons as flesh, red mist as blood, attention of all spirits.

“It's good that it's so dull, saving me from having to listen to its annoying hippie smile all day long.” Li Yue suddenly felt that this kind of Steele Baby was also not bad, at least it wouldn't make everyone worry.

【Nolamole… awesome…】

“Hehe, you looked super stupid back then.” Yingying sensed Li Yue's thoughts, pulled on the shadow, and pulled out a tender Scourge Lich face, spread out under the new sun.

Yingying's entity was thick and mellow, covering half of the sun, and also projecting a huge skull head on the ruins of the Holy City Syndramy.

The second deception, Egg's pellets elongated Steele Baby's throat, forcibly bursting it.

And those who were lucky enough not to be twisted to death by the shadows scattered and fled, shouting the shadow demon's demon name.

But Yingying stopped him.

The second hand moved again, time regressed, Steele Baby's back was completely overturned, and the surface of the dial was covered with granular dents.

Yingying officially advanced.

“Is it enough? What if it…” Li Yue was afraid that next time Steele Baby would steal his vigilance again, steal time, steal his life.

If he had opened that cloak at any other time, the outcome of the eight Demon Sons would have been imaginable.

Li Yue hurriedly flipped it back.

The shadow projected on the ground changed from a skull head to the demon language of "Nolamole." Li Yue sensed the constantly flowing white shadow under the new sun, realizing that Yingying had awakened her demon name after this advancement.

Yingying had stayed in Li Yue's shadow for so long, and had undergone a ritual, so of course she continued to pay attention to Li Yue's location.

It's just that the rain was not flowing upwards, but downwards, flowing into Yingying's new body.

Li Yue subconsciously recalled this scene from when he first met Yingying—the first day of the closed battle training, he was wearing Scourge Lich bones, and the shadow in the corner did not recognize him.

The light of the new sun became more and more dazzling, seeming to be about to transform into a beautiful rhombus plane.
