◎The Devil’s Little Classroom is about to start again!◎
At noon, warm light shines on the balcony on the second floor of the Demon King's Palace.
Since the research institute transformed hundreds of plants in the animal world into magic plants, there have been many more ceramic flower pots on the balcony. The lavender petals of hyacinths are densely surrounded by the stamens, and the fragrance wafts around the balcony. Several vines are entwined on the railings, and the leaves are proudly tilted, swaying gently in the wind.
Sitting on the wobbly rattan chair and looking into the distance, you can see the demons playing happily on the Lava Square. Many demons have just got off work, holding pancakes or cakes in one hand, squeezing into the swings beside the square, eating and chatting happily.
Warren retracted his gaze, leaned against the cushion of the rattan chair, and sorted out the many magic weapons in his personal space.
When the previous Demon King was killed, he came to the Demon King's treasury and stuffed all the treasures inside into the Demon King's crown. Some of these treasures were used by the system to clamp the Demon King's soul fragments or given to him in the form of card drawing, but there were still a lot left. When Warren destroyed the Demon King's crown, it fell out and filled the entire cave.
"The Demon King's Crown is indeed a rare and precious magic weapon," Warren muttered, regretting that he had crushed it in order to integrate the system. "At least I should have studied the magic circuit inside before destroying it."
After he obtained a complete soul, he not only regained his past memories, but also the memory that belonged to the system. Therefore, he still missed the Demon King's Crown where he had lived for several years.
However, with the current level of magic of the demons, it is not difficult to forge a new Demon King's Crown with similar functions.
As he thought about this, he held a pen and paper in his hand and continued to write down the names and functions of these magic weapons so that he could put them back in the treasury for registration.
...
...
First, he emptied the dragon clan's inventory, and then got the remaining treasures of the previous demon king. The demon king's treasury was already full. Warren rubbed his fingertips, wondering if he should rebuild a larger warehouse with a better level of protection.
"It's a pity that all the treasures in Xiaolong's dragon's nest are gone," he sighed and continued to talk to himself, "I didn't expect that the one who robbed Xiaolong was not the former demon king, but myself."
Those dragon scales filled with magic power had long been absorbed by Warren. The other gold, silver, treasures and magic weapons were either smelted roughly by him to absorb the power therein, or buried around the Demon Realm so that he could blow them up when necessary to divert the former Demon King's attention and facilitate his escape.
Warren had once promised Xiaolong that he would help him retrieve the treasure from the Dragon's Nest, but he didn't expect that he would take it away himself. Warren supported his chin with one hand, feeling that he should give Xiaolong some compensation.
He was thinking quietly when there was a gentle knock on the wooden door of the balcony. With a creak, a round head poked into the balcony.
Lill blinked his innocent eyes and looked at the devil: "My lord, do you have time?"
"Come in," Warren casually changed his posture and tapped the armrest of the rattan chair with his fingers. He lowered his eyes slightly and did not look at Lille. "Just put all the information you need to report on the table."
Lil pursed his lips, his tail drooping on the ground, and said sadly: "I'm not here to report my work. The kitchen has developed a new dish - pizza with the flavor of flaming grapes, so I sent some to you. Do you want to try it?"
As the logistics captain, although Lille rarely performs the duties of the familiar steward, he still arranges his king's daily life in every detail.
Therefore, he knew very well that when Warren came back from vacation four days later, he stayed in the room for a whole day without eating or drinking, and after that he only ate very little food. He walked around the royal city every night and never rested for even ten minutes.
After waiting anxiously for such a long time, he found that his king's condition had not improved at all. Lier could not sit still any longer, so he rushed to the kitchen and asked the familiar chef to cook a sumptuous lunch, deciding that he must let the king have a good meal and sleep no matter what.
Catching the worry that Lear was trying hard to hide, Warren raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled at him helplessly.
"Leave it here," he said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just suddenly learned about some things that happened a long time ago, and I feel a little sad."
Despite regaining his previous memories, he did not transfer his anger towards the previous Demon King to other demons.
When Warren thought that the lich Pikachu had betrayed him, he felt heartbroken. But now he also knew that Pikachu had never given up on him, but was murdered by that bastard Fiko. So the disbelief finally dissipated, and was replaced by deep guilt and nostalgia for the old friend.
Perhaps the system never completely let it go until the end, but Warren was willing to place his trust in the demons once again.
He just needs some time to digest these emotions silently.
Having received permission, Lille nodded happily, and like a magician, he took out a tablecloth from behind him and spread it on the table of the wooden table on the balcony. Then he placed a crispy roast chicken, peach slices of cake, a large bowl of pork rib soup, cream cookies, fish with sauce, potato balls, and a small plate of pizza.
The delicious smell of food immediately and strongly overwhelmed the fragrance of flowers.
Warren twitched his lips. "You call this a little pizza?"
"It's good to eat more," Lill scratched his ear embarrassedly, but insisted, "You haven't been eating well recently."
With a compromising sigh, Warren stretched out his hand, and the magic power gathered into two pairs of chopsticks. He handed one pair to Lil and motioned him to sit down and eat with him.
Lill did not refuse and sat down opposite the Demon King without hesitation. He did not eat, but spared no effort to introduce various dishes to Warren, trying to get his king to eat more.
Warren easily saw through Lill's thoughts and snorted in his heart. He always felt as if he was being treated like a cub. However, unknowingly, he actually finished most of the food. He rubbed his stomach, and his empty stomach felt full, and even his cold body seemed to be filled with warmth.
Observing the look on his king's face, Lill's expression relaxed a lot, his tail tipped up, and he began to get up and clean up the dishes: "King, do you need me to sleep with you tonight?"
Warren was startled: "Huh?"
Lill was also confused for a moment, but when he saw Warren's horrified look, he quickly reacted and shook his head like a rattle: "That's not what I meant! I meant that if you can't sleep at night, you can arrange for a furry demon in animal form to accompany you, such as the Serval Clan, or the Nether Clan. I heard that you also like the animal form of the Bamboo Bear Clan?"
"Oh," Warren breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand, "No, I'm fine. There's still a Fire Sparrow in the Demon King's Palace, so there's no need for more cats."
Although he always felt like he was looking at cute little animals when he saw servals or bamboo bears, they were not real magical pets, but rather orcs who were good at speaking—of course, they were now demons, so it would be too awkward to sleep together.
What's more, Warren couldn't sleep at all now. Thousands of years of memories were entangled in his mind like maggots attached to his bones. It was more likely that he would faint directly after being exhausted than to expect him to fall asleep naturally now.
Lill nodded disappointedly and didn't try again. After cleaning up the desk, it was already time to go to work in the afternoon, so he hurriedly said goodbye to his king.
"Go ahead, thank you," Warren smiled and rubbed his head, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
He was telling the truth. Although this thousand-year memory was like a nightmare curse, Warren, who had the ability to destroy his memory again, did not intend to throw away the pain.
He was once a person who had lost all his memories, and he understood the feeling of being lost and confused about where he came from and where he was going. The process might be difficult, but he would eventually learn to live with the things he had once been unable to bear, and as the King of the Demon Realm, he would find true inner peace.
When he reached the door, Lil couldn't help but look back.
He didn't know what had happened to make his king look so melancholy and sad, but he desperately hoped that no matter what happened, he could always stand by the king's side.
"My lord," he said, "if you need anything, I will give you everything, even to my death."
Warren smiled at him.
After integrating the system, his control over soul magic reached the peak. He could even control the behavior of demons through forced soul binding like the previous card [It's You]. Warren could feel the sincerity of Liel's words.
Because of this, I didn't know how to reply to him, so I simply stopped thinking about it and focused my attention on the notebook in front of me as if to cover up.
There is an even greater benefit to regaining memory, which is that he can finally remember what happened on Earth and make further improvements to many of the constructions in the Demon Realm.
The first thing he planned to improve was the textbooks.
The magic in the Demon Realm has been developed to the point where they can develop mobile phones, but their science education is still at the primary school level. This is simply a discredit to the Demon King! If other people on Earth saw that even the research captain in the Demon Realm was still doing primary school math problems, they would probably laugh their heads off!
Warren was ready to go and wrote down various biological experiments that he remembered in his notebook, including experimental design methods such as controlling variables, so that educational reform could start from biology class.
"Maybe we can add another physics course," he muttered to himself, making the demons shudder, "but the physical phenomena in the Demon Realm are definitely different from those on Earth. We need to conduct measurements and experiments before we can make any progress."
After working for a whole afternoon, he had only written less than half of the content of the biological experiment, and this was the result of careful consideration. Warren rubbed his neck, knowing that the rest of the part also needed actual experimental data to support it. He decided to first tell the demons about experimental methods such as control variables and equivalent substitution in the form of vivid stories, and encourage them to conduct their own research.
"It looks like the Devil King's class can start again."
Thinking of this, he almost made himself laugh. He pushed open the bedroom door and was about to change his clothes and go outside to catch some monsters to do an experiment first, when he saw the quilt under his body rustling and arching forward, revealing a fluffy little dragon head.
"My king!" The dragon shouted happily, holding up his phone high. "I heard that you can't sleep recently? That's great, let's play a game!"
Warren: “…”
The author has something to say:
-
When I was writing this chapter, I suddenly thought, do you want to see the movie version of the extra chapter? The demons in the Demon Realm saw the past of their king and cried bitterly or something like that?
Speaking of which, I kind of want to write an if line where Xiaolong or Toke travels back in time eight hundred years to beat up the previous demon king and then rescues their own king, haha haha. But I feel that even if Xiaolong and Toke are tied together, they can't beat the previous demon king (shaking their heads helplessly.JPG).
