I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“The expeditionary force is about to be destroyed, the demons' good days are coming to an end.” Jesse spoke of the continental situation, seemingly hinting at something to Li Yue.

“The Tas Empire has begun a full-scale purge of demons. Memphistos has fled. In a few days, the demons within the former Papal States will be wiped out. On the Snow Country front, the Demon Wolf King Fentus is seriously injured, and its army has been divided. Its life is counting down…”

“As for the ghost ship in the Sea of ​​Death, it can't even approach the imperial coastline at all, and it can't even support the demons.”

Li Yue understood.

The prospects for the First, Second, and Third Armies are not good. The worst is the Demon Wolf King. If things go wrong, it will be close to death.

It is an important source of malice. If it is gone, Li Yue really doesn’t know where to tell the Little Noisy ones to work overtime.

“The Empire has also drafted a list of exterminations through known intelligence, divination, and prophecy, and you are on it.” Jesse stared straight at Li Yue.

“Oh, who is on it?”

“Demon King, Mentor, Memphistos, Fentus, Shalfas, Oogie Boogie, Near…” Jesse began to list the names, and Li Yue listened, admiring the accuracy of the Empire's divination.

Even Demon King Mentor Mentor and the old magician Shalfas of Myriad Appearances Flower are on their list…

“Bestowing titles, fiefdoms, marriages, sending industries, sending resources, cultivating eight generations of Tier 9 heroes for the family…” Li Yue rambled on, listing a long list of benefits, “Anything he wants, don’t give it to him.”

As Li Yue spoke, Peng could imagine the expeditionary force as a knife to destroy the Holy City. When that knife cuts off the Heavenly Spine's head, then if it is broken again, the territory occupied by the Heavenly Spine will all belong to the Tas Empire.

You don’t want to leave any handle in Gerard’s hands, and after that exchange, Peng should also reconsider his cooperation with Peng.

“Does he think the Imperial Army will attack Demon King City soon? I can cooperate with them.” Peng said very nicely.

No wonder the Tas Empire wanted the Papal States to be destroyed, and no wonder all the powerful demons wanted to divide the Heavenly Spine—who wouldn't want the power to reshape the world?

Yingying let go, and the magic mirror took off, turning into a ray of light and piercing through the surface, heading towards the direction of Riftgold Mountain.

[By the way, there are still a small number of humans… ]

“Did you see it?” Peng asked suspiciously, “Faith collapses, sources of faith are scattered, and the things people once believed will be distorted or restored, flies devour people, dried wells produce blood, seven seasons in one day…”

Jesse looked at the “source of faith” existing in the Demon Illustrated Handbook, and realized that he had obtained invaluable material.

And Jesse recalled the expression on Yihe's face when he tore the shadow, and thought to himself, no wonder he was so eager, even at the expense of calling all his other clones from thousands of miles away.

“For example, the sword in my hand. If you think it is a chicken, if the source of faith is attached to you, you will have the ability to distort it into a chicken!” Li Yue raised his sword and pointed at Jesse.

[For Oogie Boogie, Fentus, and me, it is just an energy. Perhaps only the Old Goat and the Red-Robed Priests have a way to use it… ]

Jesse originally thought that he could find clues to Memphistos's whereabouts without any effort.

Demon King City has never been monolithic, and each demon has its own ideas.

“Maybe it's too close to the Holy City, and there are still many remaining blood cocoons and red mist, so you didn't see the chaos on the mainland.” Li Yue teased.

As for the statement of “collapse of faith,” Jesse was also quite curious: “You just said that distortion and restoration are directly related to the collapse of faith?”

“Sweeping away the remaining demons will not take much time. As long as the major families reach a balance, the lost land can be quickly recovered…”

Otherwise, if a few great mages or holy knights like Yihe or Wallace come along, it will be very difficult for the major pillars, let alone the minor pillars.

“Oh, I understand, the demons at the banquet all have a share.” Jesse did not respond to Li Yue's gaze, but asked, “What are the benefits of destroying these demons?”

However, suddenly a whip shadow shattered the light, and the lens shattered in all directions.

Could it be that mysterious magic society?

Yingying's arms pulling the magic mirror were about to break, and she shared a new piece of information with Peng—the family's sacred object was being pulled, so the first-in-line heir would definitely not let it go.

“The difficulty lies in the ‘blood debts’ that the demons owe on the mainland.”

“But what do these have to do with you? Van Helsing?” Li Yue asked Peng.

Jesse was startled when he heard the word “investigation,” but then he remembered that the Dice of Destiny could not calculate his own destiny, so he relaxed a little.

[I have completed my construction, and we bid farewell to each other. Gerard Kingston is chasing after me.]

“Huh?” Jesse didn’t understand.

“Or it wasn’t originally a chicken, but it became a sword in your hands. If you put it down, it will become a chicken.” Jesse finished Li Yue’s words.

?

Jesse understood.

A hero-like guy jumped down from the sky, his face blocking the entrance to the cave, looking at Jesse, Yingying, and Dandan.

“Not just the Papal States, but also some towns within the Tas Empire.” Li Yue's answer disappointed Peng.

Chaos on the Chaos Continent.

“Yes, the flies are going crazy, burrowing into people’s heads, turning red after killing people, and then disappearing…”

“Wait, did you say flies devour people?” Jesse heard Li Yue describe the chaos and suddenly caught a key word.

“Okay, distortion, restoration, flies devour people, dried wells produce blood, seven seasons in one day…” Jesse muttered to himself, deciding to pay close attention on the way back to the city, and collect some red flies for Tom, maybe he can track Peng Fooki’s whereabouts from them.

“You know that, so I’m leaving?” Li Yue looked impatient, raised a domino in the mirror, “Will we use this to communicate in the future?”

Dead fish eyes, with a stench of corpses all over his body.

Anyway, it's on the way.

Just like Jesse, now all he is thinking about is how to use this war to bring Memphistos down and annex the authority of the Colosseum.

The former Chaos Continent was a product shaped by the Heavenly Spine. Everything existed in a stable state and appearance. When faith collapses, those appearances that had been “corrected” by the Papal States failed, and things revealed their true forms.

Yingying explained kindly to Jesse.

The Empire has already sounded the horn of counterattack. Demon Kings and others are hiding to digest the source of faith. The next step that can be foreseen is that Demon King City will be washed by war. Before that, the Library must be fully armed.

Li Yue finally came into contact with the peak combat power of humans and found that it seemed that everything could not bypass that high tower.

Li Yue said it himself was moved, and inadvertently revealed a little kindness to Jesse.

“Yes!” Li Yue wished he could poke through the magic mirror.

“Are you kidding me? Weren’t you in the Holy City at the time?” Li Yue finally couldn’t help but get angry, “Faith is gone, so many sources of faith are scattered, things will inevitably be distorted or restored because of this!”

More authority means more magic power supply, whether it is to nourish oneself, cultivate demons, or offer it to the Staff of Deception, it is a good way to enhance the strength of the Library.

“On that road alone, I have already destroyed eight cults that distorted faith.”

“Finally, there is Nolemore, and the bone demon who attacked Loushan and destroyed ‘Hunting Country’…” Li Yue stared at Jesse, almost asking directly, “That demon’s true name is still unknown and is under investigation.”

[It's not that complicated to use… ]

“Yes, contact me anytime.” Jesse was about to release the magic mirror when Li Yue’s face quickly withdrew from the mirror.

“Where? In the Papal States?” Peng heard the taste of the Gluttonous Flies as he listened.

[Virtue + 44… ]

“Destroying demons, I am a demon hunter, I am best at it.” Peng responded, feeling that the information shared by Li Yue was very helpful.

If some humans with distorted cognition happen to come into contact with the “source of faith,” they will distort some actual existences…

“Okay, I understand.” Jesse nodded, responding to Yingying.

This is the result of the fall of the God of Faith.
