On how PhDs become human evil

Overwhelmed with excitement, Chen pounced on Bai Jie and threw him onto the bed, treating him with intense passion, almost as passionate as when they had just reunited.

Recalling the passionate encounter with Bai Jie in bed last night, Chen's cheeks flushed slightly. Her hand instinctively reached out to wake Bai Jie, who was sleeping next to her, but unexpectedly missed.

"Huh? Is he already up?"

Based on Chen's understanding of Bai Jie, whether he was in the Lungmen Guard Bureau or Rhodes Island, he would definitely sleep until noon unless he was woken up. But now he was already up.

After getting out of bed and changing his clothes, Chen pushed open the door and went downstairs to the first floor. As soon as he entered the living room, he heard a clanging and clattering sound coming from the kitchen, accompanied by a rich aroma of milk.

Upon entering the kitchen, Chen saw Bai Jie wearing an apron and making breakfast in front of the stove.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Bai Jie turned around and saw his wife. He smiled and said, "You're awake. Go brush your teeth and wash your face first. I'll almost finish making breakfast."

"You're actually making breakfast? What's gotten into you today?"

"Well, I woke up a bit early this morning, so I decided to get up and make breakfast. But I'm used to living in Japan, so Japanese breakfast is fine, right?"

Seeing Bai Jie turn around and continue working, Chen smiled sweetly and quickly came up behind Bai Jie and hugged his waist.

"Honey, please leave me alone this early in the morning. I'm still making breakfast."

"I like it, is that not allowed?"

"How could that be? As long as you're happy," Bai Jie said with a wry smile.

----------------------

Several tens of minutes later, at the dining table, Chen finished washing up and sat down opposite Bai Jie.

While eating the Japanese breakfast Bai Jie had prepared, Chen smiled with satisfaction: "It's been ten years, and your cooking skills have improved a lot."

"Well, because I had to take care of a little girl in the previous world, and I also lived alone for a while, I unconsciously learned to cook for myself."

"Little girl?"

"Don't overthink it. To me, she's really just a little girl who hasn't even grown up yet. I only took care of her for a while because she did me a favor." Seeing that his wife was about to get jealous again, Bai Jie hurriedly explained.

"Hehe, look at how impatient you are. I'm not really jealous of you. If I were jealous over something so small, I would have died of jealousy long ago."

Chen Qiao smiled sweetly.

"However, even though I already have enough sisters at home, if you really want, I might agree to let you bring a few more back."

"No, I can barely handle just the few of you. If there are any more, I'll be exhausted." Bai Jie raised his hands in surrender. "I have enough of you guys now. I don't need any more people."

Upon hearing this, Chen's eyes widened slightly, as if he hadn't expected Bai Jie to say such a thing.

Bai Jie picked up the miso soup and took a sip, then said, "Speaking of which, Chen, I have an idea. After staying in this world for a while longer, I want to go back to the world I used to live in."

"The world before?"

"Well, for example, Kamen Rider, the Holy Grail War, and Cecilia... We can't leave Kiana alone in Schicksal forever."

Upon hearing Cecilia's name, even Chen couldn't help but put aside his jealousy. Among those who had feelings for Bai Jie, Cecilia was the only one Chen considered a close friend.

"That's true. I wonder how much time has passed since Cecilia's arrival, and how Kiana is doing."

One important reason why Chen doesn't dislike Cecilia is Kiana's existence. Since she and Bai Jie have never had children, Chen treats Kiana as her own daughter.

When this topic came up, Chen turned around and grasped Bai Jie's hand: "Bai Jie, when do you think we should have a child?"

"Cough cough cough!" Bai Jie suddenly spat out the miso soup. "Chen, why do you suddenly want a child?"

"Because you see, so many women want to take advantage of you. If we have a child together, I'll be able to assert my dominance even more. And without a child, I always feel like I've lost to Cecilia somewhere."

"But given our situation, it would be very difficult for us to have a child."

Bai Jie is the embodiment of human evil and the evil of this world. From a classification perspective, he can no longer be considered a biological being, but rather a concept, and the concept of offspring does not exist for him.

Chen is half-human and half-dragon, and under the influence of the Crimson Dragon Emperor's power, he is more of a dragon. Dragons are a species that is difficult to reproduce.

Therefore, the probability of the two of them having a child is ridiculously low.

“But it’s not impossible, right?” Chen said. “Our lives are already so long that we can’t see the end. If we try, we can have a child.”

"Uh...does that mean I'll be exhausted every night?"

Bai Jie's face immediately fell, while Chen lightly licked his lips, his originally aloof demeanor instantly transforming into extraordinary charm.

Everyone says that dragons are inherently... well, now Bai Jie understands that this is no exaggeration.

"Cough cough!" Bai Jie coughed twice forcefully. "Um, Chen, don't drive so early in the morning, it's not good for your health... Hmm? Communications?"

Before Bai Jie could finish speaking, a red communication magic circle suddenly appeared in his ear, and then Sazex's voice came from it: "Yo, Lord Bai Jie, is it convenient to talk now?"

Bai Jie gestured to Chen and said, "I'm fine now, what's wrong now? Didn't we just conclude a peace treaty? Which troublemaker has jumped in this time?"

"No, it's not that kind of thing this time. The peace treaty was just signed recently, and such a thing hasn't happened yet. This time it's something else—or rather, an invitation."

"invite?"

"Well, actually, the gathering of the new generation of demons in the Underworld is in a few days. Our Underworld's high-ranking officials will also be attending. I hope you and Chen can attend as well."

P.S.: I've decided on Azur Lane for the next volume, and it will be heavily modified. Besides wanting to ride the wave of Azur Lane's current popularity, the more important reason is—Enterprise is my waifu!!!

Chapter 280, Section 15: Demon Lord, you have lost all your integrity!

Rating game.

It was a mainstream game modeled after chess, used to determine the status of demons.

After the war between the three forces of demons, angels and fallen angels, many of the pure-blood families among the seventy-two pillars of pure blood on the demon side have been wiped out.

In order to enhance the demons' combat power, the current demon king Beelzebub developed demon chess pieces to enable demon reincarnation.

The so-called ranking games are built on this foundation.

Only high-ranking demons and supreme demons can possess demon pieces, act as kings, and gain followers by giving pieces to others.

The battle competition between high-ranking demons and the highest-ranking demons, led by their respective followers, is a ranking game.

In such competitions, the organizers set many rules and restrictions. How to utilize these rules and restrictions, as well as how to make good use of the terrain, will affect the evaluation of the demons participating in the game.

Then, based on their performance in the competition, if they receive high praise, their status as demons can be elevated. Some can even obtain a title, be promoted to nobles, and join the ranks of upper-level demons or even the highest-level demons, with their influence extending to the entire demon world.

Therefore, ranking games have become the mainstream in the entire demon world. Even as descendants of pure-blooded demon nobles, many newborn demons can rise in status if they can perform well in ranking games and obtain high ratings.

Therefore, the ranking game is of great importance to demons. They must rely on it to stand out. As long as they have the ability, even a low-ranking demon of humble origins will eventually rise to prominence and join the ranks of the elite.

Nowadays, almost every high-ranking demon born into nobility participates in ranking games to enhance their status and influence.

However, only adult demons are allowed to participate in the official ranking games.

Rias, as the next head of the Gremory family, is about to come of age and qualify to participate in the ranking games.

Therefore, the new generation of demons around Rias's age would gather together around the time of their upcoming debut, greeting each other and increasing their competitive spirit with those high-ranking demons who also came from prestigious families and had great backgrounds.

Therefore, the four Demon Kings would even personally attend to encourage the high-ranking demons who came from noble families.

Now, Sazex intends to invite Bai Jie to this party, and the reason is easy to understand with a little thought.

Currently, the world's understanding of Bai Jie is still very limited. Apart from knowing that Bai Jie has formidable strength and is the man of the Crimson Dragon Emperor, almost no one knows anything about him. As for race, the world's major powers seem to assume that Bai Jie is of the human race.

Therefore, Bai Jie can be said to be the strongest human in the world. Among the demons who are reincarnated through the Demon Piece, the majority are reincarnated humans. If they can be encouraged by Bai Jie, the strongest human, it will definitely greatly boost the fighting spirit of their followers.

So, are you going to participate?

After Sazex hung up the call, Chen asked.

After pondering for a moment, Bai Jie shrugged: "In any case, we've received a lot of benefits from Sazex, so let's do this little thing if we can. Besides, it'll help pass the time. Otherwise, the two of us would be bored staying at home, wouldn't we?"

"I think you're trying to bully the young people again." Chen saw through Bai Jie's intentions at a glance. "Although it's good to dampen the spirits of the new generation, if you go too far, you might discourage them."

"Don't worry, I'll control my strength. Demon King level should be about right."

Demon King level.

That's already the highest level of existence in the demon world. Even if you search the entire underworld, there are probably only a dozen or so people whose strength has reached the level of a demon king, or even just a handful.

Now Bai Jie says he can only use his Demon King level strength, which is clearly bullying!

With a silent sigh, Chen said, "Fine, I'll go with you. Without me watching over you, you'll probably cause a huge mess."

"It makes it sound like I'm particularly prone to causing trouble. I don't want to cause trouble either, but there are always a lot of clueless guys who want to mess with me." Bai Jie sighed helplessly. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was extremely averse to trouble.

However, Chen knew that Bai Jie secretly hoped someone would cause him trouble, so that he could cause more trouble. Even though he had sworn to fight for himself and Kal'tsit, Bai Jie's other goal remained unchanged.

Seeking pleasure.

"Well, I don't think anything major will happen with Sazex and the others around."

——————————————————————————————

Time quickly came to the day of the new generation gathering. Using spatial magic to tear open space, Bai Jie led Chen directly through the spatial rift and arrived at the Demon King's Palace. Inside the Demon King's Palace, Sazex and the others were already waiting there.

Upon seeing Bai Jie and Chen arrive, Sazex immediately said, "Thank you for coming, Bai Jie. The three of you, let me introduce you. These two are the Magic King Bai Jie and the Crimson Dragon Emperor Chen. I specially invited them here today."

"I've long admired your name, Magic King. I am Achuka Beelzebub, or you could call me Demon King Beelzebub, right?" said the flamboyant man sitting next to Sazex. "I've heard that the Magic King possesses the world's strongest magic power and is also proficient in all systems of magic in the world. If possible, may I ask you for some guidance?"

"If you have time, judging from your demeanor, you must also be a researcher. I used to be a researcher myself, and my intuition tells me that we should have a lot in common."

Bai Jie extended his hand and shook hands with Achuka. Then, Sazex began to introduce the other two Demon Lords to Bai Jie: "This is Farubium Asmodeus, the current Demon Lord Asmodeus."

"Hello, Magic King, Crimson Dragon Emperor." Asmodeus seemed very lazy. "I really thank you both. Because of your cooperation in completing the signing of the peace treaty, my workload has been greatly reduced. I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

It's a shame to say this, but the current four Demon Kings are actually a bunch of guys who don't have the dignity of a Demon King in private.

Sirzechs is a gentle older brother and a sister-complex, and he always carries a photo of Rias when she was a child.

Despite his serious demeanor, this Demon Lord, who is passionate about invention and research, is currently in a state of idleness, having delegated all his daily duties to the other three Demon Lords and his subordinates.

Farubium, on the other hand, hates troublesome things and talks about retiring and going home all day long. She is the type who finishes all her homework on the first day of summer vacation and then goes crazy playing.

As for the final Seraph Leviathan...

"Are you the Magic King that Little Sazex and Little Achuka have been talking about? Hello, hello, I'm Leviathan, the cutest magical girl in the Underworld!"

The female demon lord, dressed in what was clearly a cosplay outfit, greeted Bai Jie in an extremely embarrassing pose. If Bai Jie remembered correctly, it seemed to be a transformation pose from some magical girl anime...

Who are these demon kings?!
