The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

Once she remained in the abyss, she posed almost no threat from the outside world. Instead, the greatest threat to her came from the other demon lords.

Once they discover their weakness, those guys will definitely pounce on them like demon sharks that have smelled blood, tearing them apart in a frenzy.

"Maintain the status quo..."

The demon lord, in addition to his madness, also possesses a considerable degree of cunning.

"Speaking of which, we haven't given Karan his reward yet for completing the mission."

I didn't reward him before in order to prepare, but now it seems like the perfect time.

The purpose of mixing truth and falsehood is to keep the outside world guessing about her situation.

Stepping into the lava, she absorbed its power to heal her body, speaking to her children who were again seeking an audience with her:

Come, my child.

"Come and claim your rightful reward."

Chapter 337 Go to hell!

"Demon King..."

Since his consciousness left the sanctuary, Karan has been in a state of mental instability.

Her biggest feeling right now is that it doesn't feel real.

Karan now felt that not only what had just happened was unreal, but everything that followed was even more unreal.

I will kill the Flame Demon Queen and become the new queen.

Do not……

Turning his head, Karan looked at the androgynous boy beside him who was constantly panting excitedly.

That's the one; it's meant to kill the Flame Demon Queen.

But is it really possible to do that?

Seeing it happily stroking its head with its unfamiliar arms, Karan felt something was off.

It's not that Karan doesn't believe in the Sage; she now has an almost blind trust in her mystery and power.

However, she had some doubts about the Death Hunters themselves...

She admitted that the Death Hunter was very strong.

Although Kalan himself was not strong enough, there were also legends under the command of the Flame Demon Queen, so he was no stranger to legendary-level power.

Even by legendary standards, the Death Hunters are among the strongest.

This is not only based on its basic panel strength, but also on its strange characteristics.

The mutated demon's vitality and powerful destructive force make it a being that even legends must be wary of.

To put it bluntly, unless you can kill a legendary creature immediately, the fate of being entangled by it is to be worn down and killed by the Death Hunter.

This ability is already incredibly powerful.

But that's still not enough.

Far from enough!

Even if the Flame Demon Queen isn't among the strongest of the demon lords, her strength should never be underestimated!

Within their own territories, demon lords blessed by the abyss are equivalent to saints; this is no empty statement.

It might even be stronger than a saint!

Otherwise, those angels would not have given up any opportunity to conquer the abyss.

"How exactly can this be achieved?"

The sage seems to have complete faith in the Death Hunter, so should I believe in it too?

"...Ha, what choice do I have?"

It seems I've misjudged my own position.

Karan suddenly realized that he had no choice at all.

The sage never gave her any room to bargain; she never thought she had that right.

In her eyes, the Death Hunters were clearly of a much higher status than herself.

She didn't even have any demands on herself...

(Child, come see me and claim your prize!)

!

!

The voice of the Flame Demon Queen rang in his ears, bringing all of Karan's thoughts to a standstill.

"My mother is summoning me!"

She turned her head, intending to tell the Death Hunter, but only met a pair of pure black eyes filled with excitement and madness.

The Death Hunter... it can't wait any longer.

Looking at it, Karan felt a subtle change in his mood...

It seems that something has changed.

Taking a deep breath, Karan felt his body trembling slightly.

I don't know if it was because of fear, or because of...

excited.

"Heh... I might have gone crazy too."

With a complicated smile, Karan strode towards the castle.

……

……

“You have come, my child.”

With his head bowed, Kalan knelt on one knee before the throne.

Dongdong.

She listened to her own heartbeat.

In the past, every time she saw the Flame Demon Queen, she felt an overwhelming fear due to the difference in their strength.

However, after meeting the sage, this situation has quietly begun to change.

After encountering truly unfathomable and great beings.

Although the power of the Flame Demon Queen still made Kalan feel that she was unapproachable.

But it seems that the other party is no longer completely unreachable.

Dongdong.

Karan could clearly hear his heart beating more and more intensely in his chest.

That's ambition...

She made no promises, and she wasn't even in her eyes.

But now, her ambition is growing ever larger!

"Kalan, my lovely child, what kind of reward do you want?"

Seated on a throne made from the bones of a legendary demon, the Fire Demon Queen looked at Kalan with a smile.

"I completed my mission perfectly, and even killed your brother, taking everything from him..."

"That's great! I'm so proud of you!"

The Flame Demon Queen laughed, looking admiringly at Kalan, who had his head bowed.

Killing one's brother for the sake of gain might be a major taboo for mortals, but it's a bonus for demons.

"So, Karan, my lovely child, what kind of reward do you want?"

Rewards...

With her head bowed, Karan spoke in a low voice:

"I think……"

What reward do I want?

Anything you give is acceptable.

This was Karan's usual answer, but this time...

Raising his head, Kalan looked at his mother seriously for the first time since his first encounter with the Flame Demon Queen.

Karan looked directly into the eyes that he had been avoiding because of fear.

She looked at the Flame Demon Queen, at the being who had given her life and then abandoned her.

Speak.

I seemed to hear a soft laugh.

Speak it out.

So, Karan spoke up.

she says:

"I will replace you."

!

!

Suddenly, Karan felt as if the shackles in his heart had shattered.
