◎Sometimes not remembering anything is actually a kind of happiness◎
When Warren just obtained the magic power of the previous demon king, he fainted in public at the Demon Realm Carnival due to the deliberate interference of the system.
In desperation, the little lich Tok forcibly merged with the cursed magic book in order to gain the power to protect Warren, causing his body to be destroyed by the violent power of the curse.
While searching for a cure for Tok, Warren draws a card called [Magic Research Report of the Mysterious Black Robe], which records in detail the experience of a mysterious black-robed man who once had a close relationship with Pikachu, the former leader of the Lich Clan, and was suspected of being involved in many events in the Demon Realm eight hundred years ago in making the cursed magic book.
When Warren was studying the report written by the mysterious man in black robe, he complained to the system that the report used too many "omitted here", so that almost all the derivation steps had to be practiced by himself.
It was not until the God-King pointed out the problems in his manuscript in a slightly disgusted tone that Warren suddenly realized that his recording habits were exactly the same as those of the so-called mysterious black robe.
Barely maintaining a smile on his lips, Warren sent the God King away and added mischievously, "You can continue to live in Golden Fox's room. The demons are eager to discuss the exam experience with you." He watched the God King leave with his face covered and hurried back to the study.
He did not call the system, but took out a purple card from the card pack, activated it gently, took out the [Mysterious Black Robe's Magic Research Report], and looked at it carefully.
"This is clearly my own handwriting, the font is exactly the same," he whispered to himself as his fingers trembled slightly as he grasped the report, "Why have I never noticed this before?"
The Demon King's Crown was quietly placed on the desk.
...
...
Taking a deep breath, Warren tried to calm himself down. With a flickering gaze, he turned to look at the Demon King Crown and threw a series of questions to the system: "So there is no other host at all, and I am the only one from beginning to end? Why did I lose my memory? What happened eight hundred years ago?"
The system muttered a curse word.
[Is it possible that you and the mysterious black robe from eight hundred years ago just happen to have similar handwriting?]
Warren walked back to the desk, hooked the Demon King's Crown in his hand, and slowly turned it in circles.
He obviously didn't take the system's excuse of resistance seriously. He bit his lower lip hard and thought with a serious expression.
Perhaps because he was under too much pressure, he subconsciously used the Transfiguration he had just learned to conjure a fluffy fox tail, which he anxiously flapped on the ground next to the desk. The soft tail hair brushed against his fingertips, making his frown relax a little.
"Eight hundred years ago, the Dark Iron Dwarves obtained the Fire Rune. With this rune, they improved their forging techniques and, under my guidance, went to the Demon King's Palace to work for the previous Demon King."
"Pikachu, the former leader of the Lich tribe, also obtained the Cursed Grimoire. By the way, I have long wanted to complain about the name Pikachu. Not only does it not fit the style of the Lich tribe, but it also has the same name as the yellow-skinned rat Pokémon. If it was me who gave him this name after watching the Detective Pikachu movie, it would make a lot more sense."
"If the now-dead Lich Chief Feko hadn't intervened, the former Lich Chief Pikachu would have also been heading to the Demon King's Palace."
Warren hung the Demon King's Crown on his wrist, stroked his fluffy tail, and bit his lips until they turned white.
"At the same time, the Giant Stone Demon Tribe obtained a stone tablet engraved with demonic words insulting the previous Demon King."
"Obviously, I was already prepared to stay in the Demon King's Palace at that time. System, I am the otherworldly soul that the previous Demon King's prophecy crystal said could open the barrier at the edge of the Demon Realm. Is that right?"
The system was silent for a moment.
[About that.]
He spoke vaguely, not prepared to let Warren know these things immediately, and his tone was rarely a little panicked.
[But this is a little different from what you imagined... Warren, sometimes not remembering anything is actually a kind of happiness.]
Warren said nothing.
He knew that what the system said was right, because he now had a terrible, final guess about the matter, but he was not determined to confirm it immediately.
If that guess was true, he was not sure what attitude he would use to treat the demon he now sincerely loved.
With his narrow waist leaning against the desk, Warren sighed heavily, turned the research report back into an SR card, and stuffed it back into the system card bag. After hesitating for a moment, he gently took off the Demon King's Crown hanging on his wrist with his right hand.
He stared at the Demon King's crown for a while, and just as he was about to take action, the wooden door of the study was suddenly knocked. A demon soldier stood outside the door and said anxiously, "My king, something happened to the lich Tok!"
Warren's heart trembled.
Without caring about the sadness of autumn and moon, he threw the Demon King's Crown directly onto the table. He didn't even bother to listen to the second swear word that the system, which was thrown away unexpectedly, uttered today. He quickly dodged and teleported to the cabin where Tok and Tono lived. He easily tore open the protective formation they had set up and rushed into the house.
Tok knelt on the ground, his body filled with the power of the curse, and he couldn't even maintain his human form perfectly. He turned into gray mist and then turned into a thin and pale boy.
Beside him, Tono's eyes were filled with fear. He held his brother's arm in panic, not even caring about the fact that he might also be infected by the curse. He whispered to comfort his brother: "Don't worry, it's okay. I have already reported it to the demon soldiers. The king will be here soon."
Before he finished speaking, Warren had already strode up to Tok, took Tok's hand, and directed the curse power in his body into his own.
After the piercing pain subsided, Tok was finally able to utter a complete sentence.
His gray lips trembled as he glared at his stupid brother Tono. It was unclear whether he was angry or in pain, but his voice was filled with barely detectable crying: "What I just said was don't call me King!"
Tono was stunned for a moment.
He was originally sitting in the house writing a script, while his brother Tok was sorting out the curse magic on the bamboo couch not far away. Suddenly, Tok fell to the ground with a thud, obviously suffering from great pain. When Tono approached in panic, he could only hear him mumbling the word "king". Naturally, he was so scared that he immediately asked the magic soldiers for help.
Who would have thought that this guy would actually say don’t look for the king!
The brothers looked at each other, neither of them reacting yet, and Warren couldn't help but snort as he watched them plotting loudly.
"Don't look for me?"
He gritted his teeth and wanted to grab Tok's ears, but seeing him lying on the ground pitifully, he couldn't bear to do it, so he could only glare at him fiercely.
"I remember I said before that you should sort out the curse power of the cursed magic book, print each curse on a piece of paper, and transfer the curse power of the cursed magic book through this attachment. Tell me, why has the curse power in your body not decreased at all until now?"
Toke buried his head in his stomach, feeling guilty.
Although the intensity of the pain was alleviated due to the help of the king, he was still suffering from the backlash of the curse. He was curled up on the floor, and it was a very simple action for him to shove his face into his chest.
"You fought against the Protoss and the Orcs alone before, and we didn't know until you were injured and unconscious," he said weakly, in a low voice, "I also want to work hard to gain strong strength and become your sharpest knife, so that all races that dare to offend you will be killed without a burial place."
Warren paused and vaguely recalled when he was injured and fell into a coma while fighting against the Protoss and the Orcs alone. This thought went around in his mind for a long time before he realized that the demons had misunderstood his coma at the carnival, and he couldn't help feeling helpless.
"The God King has clarified the misunderstanding with us. The Gods will soon become a friendly race to the Demon Realm," he said, his tone much gentler. "Although the Beast King of the Orcs is a brainless idiot, all the Orcs are loyal to the Demon Realm. Even if he wants to fight, it will be difficult for him to mobilize an army. He is not to be feared."
Tok opened his eyes wide, obviously he had never heard of these things, and there was surprise in his eyes.
At this time, Warren had already checked Tok's body, let go of his hand, and rubbed his head helplessly: "You have been secretly absorbing the curse power for so long without telling me, and the effect is quite good. Even if I didn't come this time, in at most half a month, you will be able to sort out all the power of the cursed magic book into your own magic."
In other words, although Tok looked scary just now, his life was not in danger. It was Tono who was too concerned and when he heard Tok saying the word "king", he hurriedly called Warren over, which exposed the truth.
As he said this, Warren injected a trace of magic power to help Tok suppress the raging curse power in his body, until the pain in Tok's body disappeared and he got up from the ground by himself.
The two little liches lowered their heads in unison and admitted their mistakes.
"Increasing your strength is a good thing," Warren shook his head and patted them on the shoulders one by one, without any intention of blaming them. "But there is no need to be so anxious. You are still young, and one day you will become the backbone of the Demon Realm, but for now I will protect you. Don't let magic training become a painful thing."
Since he chose to comb the curse magic in his body, Warren could imagine that Tok would probably have to suffer pain like today every few days. He usually avoided his brother's sight to prevent Tono from noticing his embarrassment, but this time he probably didn't have time to run away before the attack.
Tok hadn't said a word while enduring such heart-wrenching pain, but now he finally couldn't resist whimpering, took a step forward, and hugged Warren tightly.
Tono blinked and looked at him, feeling that he was not that close to the Demon King, but seeing the Demon King's gentle expression, he couldn't help but come closer, and also stuffed himself into the Demon King's arms, rubbing his head against his brother's.
Holding the two cubs in his arms, the empty mood that had become since he realized that he was the man in black robe suddenly calmed down.
Warren took a deep breath and whispered to himself, "I think I'm ready to face the truth."
He is the king of the demons, he should be able to withstand any storm.
The author has something to say:
After the system chapter is finished, it will probably not be far from the end (happy circles.JPG). I think it will definitely be finished in July!
