◎The old father was seriously injured and paralyzed, but the filial son never left him◎
"Your Majesty!"
The moment Warren fell, most of the demons had not yet reacted. Lille, who was closest to him, reached out hurriedly, but before he could hold Warren, the demon dragon rushed over, spread its wings, and protected Warren tightly.
"Your Majesty?" Lille half-knelt on the ground, his voice trembling, "Your Majesty, please wake up!"
In the blink of an eye, dozens of demons had gathered on the platform.
Arabella, who was also extremely anxious, gritted her teeth, drew the long sword from her waist, turned around and shouted: "All demon soldiers, stand out! All demons, restore order on the spot!"
Of course, she also wanted to know the king's situation first, but the most urgent task was to guard the king's magic domain.
Tok, who turned into gray mist, had already rushed to the high platform. Seeing the unconscious Demon King in the Dragon Wing, his eyes suddenly turned red and he staggered over, wanting to check whether his king was cursed.
The dragon blocked him vigilantly: "Stay away from the king!"
Tok said nothing as he crushed the cursed magic book. The darkest and most evil curse power gathered in his palm. Even in such a critical situation, the faces of the demons beside him changed drastically. Once this level of curse power erupted, it would be more than enough to destroy the entire royal city.
...
...
"Let go of the king," he stared at the dragon, his tone frighteningly serious, "or we will perish together."
Xiaolong was not afraid of such threats. He glared back: "How do I know if you want to harm the king?"
"Stop arguing!" The Nightmare Demon Sur interrupted their confrontation. She was one of the few demons who could still maintain basic calmness. "Where is the medical team? Come and check on the king!"
In the fierce conflict, no one noticed that the golden crown hanging on the horns of the devil suddenly flashed.
"The medical team is useless. The king is not injured, he just lost all his magic power." Xiaolong protected the Demon King even more tightly. "Don't think I don't know. The tradition of the Demon Realm is that the demon who killed the previous Demon King can become the king. Humph, I am here, no one can touch the king's hair!"
After the magic dragon said this, he was stunned for a moment, wondering blankly when he came to the conclusion that the king had no magic power. He didn't think it through and simply threw it out of his mind - after all, he was the magic dragon, and his conclusion would definitely not be wrong!
On the high platform, all the demons turned pale in an instant.
"The king has lost all his magic power?" The servant Moril shook his head frantically, "How is that possible! The king has been fine, he is just too tired!"
Tiechui remembered what the goblin Xili said, and he murmured in despair: "Could it be the natural elves..."
The incident happened suddenly, and not even a single demon used shielding magic. Almost all the demons in the entire Lava Square heard the discussion on the platform.
Everyone looked at each other, with the same expression of confusion and panic.
In this deathly silence, the Demon King's crown on Warren's head slowly floated up. At that moment, almost all the demons heard the same voice, as if someone was whispering in their minds.
"He has no magic power now..."
"...If you kill him, you will be the devil that everyone is looking forward to..."
A gentle breeze blew by, the fire whales in the lava lake flapped their tails impatiently, and the scorching sun was as hot as fire.
No one knew who started it, but the demons started shouting loudly at the Demon King's Crown.
"We only have one king!"
The first to kneel on the ground were the familiars, followed by the Dark Iron Dwarves, Goblins, Slimes, the demon soldiers holding weapons, and countless members of the Demon King's Palace who were once wandering demons...
The chief of the giant stone demons, Dob, knelt down without hesitation. His voice was as loud as a boulder: "Even if the king has lost his magic power, he is still our most beloved king!"
The skeleton warrior chieftain, Gu Hu, stood there hesitantly, obviously in a dilemma, until his finger bone was pulled hard by the cub Gu Ge. He looked down and saw Gu Ge's bright eyes, then he made up his mind and knelt down with a plop.
In the center of the lava lake, the dark immortal mushroom was growing wildly. In the blink of an eye, it was nearly a hundred meters high, and its shadow blocked the scorching sun for the entire lava square.
Xiaolong, who was kneeling in the center of the platform, looked up blankly at the huge mushroom that reached into the sky. A tear finally fell from his red eyes, but this time he did not burst into tears like before. Instead, he firmly resisted the urge to cry.
This time it is his turn to protect the king.
…
Five hundred kilometers away, a scorpion hidden in the quicksand suddenly jumped up and bit a passing ground rat with a "click".
The lava lake gurgled, and a fire snake swam at the bottom of the lake, making a slight rustling sound.
A dozen Dark Iron dwarves sat outside the forge, discussing in low voices with worry in their hearts.
The moment Warren opened his eyes, countless noisy voices flooded into his mind.
He was confused for a moment. Before he could analyze the meaning of those voices, his right hand was suddenly grabbed tightly and a crying voice sounded beside him.
"You're finally awake," Xiao Long sobbed, "You've been in a coma for three days!"
Warren was a little confused. He subconsciously touched the little dragon's horn, looked around, and found himself lying in the bedroom of the Demon King's Palace. In addition to the dragon, the familiar Lier, the lich Tok, the winged demon Feiwu and the nightmare demon Sur were also standing beside the bed, all crying with joy.
I inexplicably had a sense of déjà vu of "an old father is seriously injured and paralyzed, but his filial son never abandons him."
Shaking his head vigorously to suppress the strange associations, Warren quickly recalled what happened before he fell into a coma.
"I'm fine," he smiled helplessly, knowing that this was definitely intentional by the system, and tried to appease the demons, "Don't worry—"
"—— King Wuwuwu, don't worry, even if you have no magic power, I will still protect you!" Xiaolong leaned into his arms, with a messy short hair, and said firmly.
Behind him, the demons echoed: "You will always be our king!"
Warren was stunned, struggling to digest the meaning of their words, and couldn't help but feel that it was a little outrageous.
When he had no magic power, the demons believed he was unfathomable, powerful, and even a devil incarnate. Now that he has obtained all the magic power of the previous demon king, they think he has no magic power anymore?
Perhaps because he was silent for too long, the lich Tok lowered his head, walked silently to Warren, and knelt on one knee: "My king, I will be the sharpest knife in your hand."
Warren, who was about to find a reason to explain that he was fine, looked at him when he heard the voice.
Although he was not very proficient in the use of magic, he could easily distinguish different magic fluctuations. When he saw the curse power that filled Tok and could devour Tok at any time, Warren's face changed drastically: "What did you do?"
Tok said nothing.
He forcibly merged with the cursed magic book, increasing his strength to the point where he could even fight a few moves with the dragon. Of course, this kind of thing could not be risk-free. If Tok had not been able to establish a connection with the cursed magic book since birth, he would have been dead with a huge curse on his back.
Warren was now too busy cursing the system in his mind while pulling Tok to his side. He was about to use magic to check Tok's body, but stopped after hesitation.
He had just acquired magic power and was not yet proficient in how to use it, so it was easy for him to hurt Tok.
He pinched his brows, looked at the demons, and condensed a ball of scorching flames in his palms: "Don't worry, my magic power is still there, it's just a small problem. My control over magic power is not very precise at the moment, but it will recover soon."
Seeing the flame filled with powerful magic, the demons couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and began to shed tears again: "I'm so glad you're okay."
“My king, if you want to go on an adventure next time, please take us with you,” the Winged Demon Feiwu said in a very serious tone, “We are not afraid of either the Gods or the Nature Elves.”
The servant Liel nodded vigorously: "You are the soul of the Demon Realm. If something happens to you, the Demon Realm will fall apart."
Warren knew he was in the wrong: "Don't worry, this kind of problem will never happen again."
"Uh, my king?" The Nightmare Demon Sur stared at the flame in his palm that was filled with exploding magic power, and said weakly, "Are you saying that you haven't regained control of your magic power yet?"
All the demons, including Warren, turned their eyes to the ball of magic flame that could explode at any time, and their expressions gradually became filled with fear.
Warren flipped over and broke through the wall of the Demon King's Palace, flew into the sky, and threw the magic flame out with force.
When the demons in the royal city heard the noise in the Demon King's Palace, they thought that some demons were going to take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the king, so they all picked up their weapons. When they looked up, they saw their king floating in the air. With a wave of his hand, a huge and powerful wave of magic covered the entire royal city.
They were stunned for a second, then cheered in unison with excitement: "My King! My King has recovered!"
Warren, who had almost figured out the whole story, smiled and waved to the cheering demons: "I'm sorry that you didn't have a good time at this year's Hundred Demons Carnival. I promise to make it up to you in a while."
The skeleton warrior chieftain, Gu Hu, who was moving stones, looked up at the high demon king. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself, "I have to buy a big bag of snacks for Gu Ge tonight."
Compared to other guys who were crazy about worshipping the Demon King, he considered himself to be a clear-headed demon, and he also had the magical heritage of the Skeleton Warrior Clan for nearly a thousand years. He did not believe that a demon as powerful as the Demon King would suddenly faint and then recover without treatment.
Besides, the instigating voice that suddenly appeared in the demon’s mind that day was also very strange.
The Demon King must have staged this drama on his own, deliberately trying to lure out the rebels in the Demon Realm, Bone Hu thought thankfully. He was even almost tempted, but fortunately he stopped the idea in time, otherwise he would probably be left with nothing but bones.
Because it was thrown with enough force, the ball of magic flame flew for a long time before finally hitting the obstacle, making a huge roar.
Warren, who was chatting with the demons, blinked and thought he heard the sounds of "crackling" and "crackling".
The next moment, Xiaolong rushed out of the Demon King's palace, grabbed the corner of the Demon King's clothes, pointed at the sky in horror, and after a while he found his lost voice: "My king, did you just break the barrier?!"
Warren: “Huh?”
