I turned my head away with a blush, not daring to meet that playful gaze, and said timidly, "Please...please be gentle..."

Although it is shameful, compared with the current situation, moral integrity, a recyclable resource that can grow wildly, can be completely discarded.

However, within a few seconds after the words fell, the atmosphere fell into a brief silence, and then Alice suddenly burst into laughter, pounding the table with an action that completely destroyed her ladylike image.

"You're so gullible. Who would be attracted by a washboard figure like yours? But your performance is so adorable, hahaha."

If I were to use a fruit to describe my appearance at this moment, it would definitely be an apple, or a ripe apple would be a more appropriate description.

The difference from his side was that the other party's voice was obviously much lighter, "Hey, I feel much better now, I didn't let you mock me before."

Are you a primary school student?

Of course, I can't say this complaint no matter what. The feeling of having someone hold a hold on me is really terrible.

"But compared to those pedantic old antiques, you are quite pleasing to my eyes. A lot of interesting things will happen if you become the Demon King."

Chapter 4: Level 0 Demon King is not motivated

"Wait, wait, wait a minute!" He was so surprised that his voice was trembling. "What does this mean?"

Originally, I thought that the hidden profession obtained through this loophole would definitely be taken back, and I could create a new character. This was the best outcome. However, things turned out to be completely beyond my expectations.

"Literally, they originally planned to let my clone serve as the "Demon King", so they temporarily incorporated it into the profession. I didn't expect that you would take the blame. But this is also good. It saves me a lot of trouble."

"And I think this will definitely be fun. At least it will be much more fun than those rigid old antiques. Just think of it as playing a game with me. I am also looking forward to this fun game."

There was something different in Alice's eyes when she looked at me.

"You just want to be lazy!"

"Instead of complaining about me, you should worry about yourself. After all, as the Demon King, you have to lead the Dark Camp and the Light Camp to fight to the end. If you don't work hard, the players will break through Herontis."

"So what?" I curled my lips. I didn't have any gaming experience anyway, so there was nothing wrong with just ending the game.

“It’s not a very serious consequence.”

Alice took a sip of tea calmly. "It's just that as a demon king, you might be tossed around by ○○ players, forced to change into ○○'s ○○, and even your feet ○, breasts ○, and face ○ will not be spared. You will be forced to ○○ constantly, and even ○○'s ○○ will be ○○..."

"There are too many muted words. Do you have a 10G notebook in your head?" I was immediately shocked.

"What do you think I am?"

Alice said seriously, "Even if there is, it's 100TB."

"…Isn't that the point? And this isn't something to be proud of, idiot!"

"In short, you don't have the right to refuse." The girl said firmly, as if she couldn't find anything to complain about for a moment. But to me, she looked like a child being unreasonable.

"Wait, I have no idea what to do!"

Letting an Iron V lead the team, it wouldn't be my fault that the dark camp was wiped out.

"Hill will help you with this issue."

"In compliance with Lady Alice's orders, I will do my best to assist the Demon King."

I just realized that a tall demon woman had appeared next to Alice. She had long silver hair, light grey eyes with a unique texture, teardrop moles at the corners of her eyes and a cold expression. She looked like a stern head maid.

"Another cup, the black tea you brew is still the most delicious."

"Thank you for the compliment, Lady Alice."

It’s true!

"If you have any questions, just ask Hill. I still need to take a nap... I still have a lot of things to do, so I'll leave first."

You definitely mean to say that taking a nap is right, right?

"Wait, this is a bit too hasty. Don't you need to think about it seriously?" But what I care more about is the fact that I became the Demon King inexplicably.

No matter how you think about it, the intelligent computer of Epoch will not be so careless as to give a character that will affect the entire game process to an ordinary player.

"Oh, shit, it looks like the light camp is attacking."

"Hey, where is it, where is it... Strange, there is no one here at all?"

When I leaned against the window and turned my head, I found that Hill was the only one left there.

I feel I need to retract my previous comment.

"...You are really an elementary school student, using such a childish method!"

"The Demon King who was deceived is actually a child, right?"

"Hill, don't complain when we first meet."

"I am so sorry."

Damn it, since that guy is so casual, don’t blame me for being so reckless.

When I thought of what Alice described about what would happen after being defeated by the players of the Light Camp, although it was very likely an exaggeration, I couldn't help but tremble all over. Then I gritted my teeth and made up my mind, "Hill, our target is the Light Camp, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty the Demon King."

"Well now, I order you to lead all the demon lord legions of the dark camp and go to the bright world to launch a full-scale attack!" In the early stage of any game, the NPC's combat power is definitely stronger, but in the middle and late stages, the players play a key role, so the threat must be nipped in the bud before the players grow up.

After all, I don’t think those villains in anime who give experience to the protagonist are that smart.

"Reporting to His Majesty the Demon King, we currently do not have any legions."

Hill brought some unfortunate news.

"Wait, are you kidding me? How could the Demon King be so shabby that he doesn't even have a legion?"

"I didn't, because of what Lady Alice had set, the Demon King needs to develop the power of the dark camp through his own efforts."

"This is a hell-level farming game!" Sure enough, that guy would not give himself such great authority.

I complained in my mind for a while, and suddenly I looked up at Hill in front of me, "Hill, your level should be very high, right?"

However, the other party easily saw through his thoughts and slapped it back, "The mission given to me by Lady Alice is to protect the safety of His Majesty the Demon King and to assist in the development of the dark camp."

I couldn't help but put my hand on my forehead. I felt that if I continued like this, I would get high blood pressure sooner or later. "Really? I can go by myself then."

With the Demon King's strength, he can at least destroy a city, and Hill will definitely take action to ensure his own safety at that time. In this way, it will not be difficult to gradually destroy the power of the light camp.

This time, Hill didn't object, but just gave me a suggestion, "Your Highness the Demon King should first understand your own abilities."

Oh yes, I almost forgot, this can also help me better attack the light camp.

With this thought in mind, I excitedly opened my character panel. In my previous life, I only occasionally learned about the power of the Demon King from the descriptions of the masters on the forum. Now, the opportunity to display the terrifying strength of the Demon King through data is before me. I guess everyone would be excited.

Skill: Demon King's Intimidation

Well... in a way it's really scary...

It's just for myself.

Nothing else mattered. When I saw a big "0" in the level column and all the attributes were only in single digits, I knew the game was over before it even began.

"Hill, can we surrender now?"

This guy is so extreme.

I slumped weakly on the table. After suffering so many fatal blows in succession, my heart could no longer feel any fluctuations. To describe it in one sentence, I guess I have become a useless person.

However, Hill's words made me stand up immediately.

"Your Highness the Demon King can wear this."

"What is this?" Looking at the pleated dress on her body and the black velvet stockings wrapped around her perfect legs, she knew without a doubt that she must look very cute at the moment.

After all, it was the first time for me to try on such a girlish outfit, so I was very shy. However, after thinking of a possibility, I immediately became excited, "Could it be a magical outfit that will make me hundreds of times stronger after putting it on?"

"It's just ordinary girl's clothes. Because they are cute, I think the invaders will be gentler to the Demon King after they break through Herontis."

"..."

Maybe I should have realized earlier that Hill is definitely a qualified black-bellied and sarcastic guy.

"So what exactly is this terrible situation?"

"Because His Majesty the Demon King has been avoiding reality, if I don't work hard, the situation will continue to get worse." Hill pointed out the problem with my current negative attitude.

"But……"

"No buts. Although the Demon King does not have a large army and great strength now, the adventurers are also very weak. We obviously have a higher starting point. Why don't you have the confidence to grow up and defeat them through better efforts?"

Hill's words suddenly made me realize it.

Yes, isn’t the purpose of playing Era to become stronger through hard work and get ahead of others?

Although the current situation has changed slightly, it is actually not much different from the leveling process. Moreover, he has the experience of his previous life. No matter how he thinks about it, he is much stronger than the players in the light camp. It is even possible for him to use the power of the Demon King to make them suffer.

Hum, this will be the hardest game you have ever played.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind and raised his eyes again, "I understand, Hill, please teach me how to become stronger!"

For some reason, I seemed to see a hint of a smile on Hill's expressionless face, although it was only fleeting.

"Please follow me, Your Majesty the Demon King."

Chapter 5: Heart of Herontis

"Where is this?" I couldn't help but ask curiously as I followed Hill through the twists and turns of the castle and finally arrived at the space on the third underground floor.

"The core room of the Demon King's Castle." Hill simply answered and opened the mechanical protective door in front of him.

When all the protective doors were opened, what appeared before me was a magnificent hall. Dozens of white jade pillars carved with beautiful patterns supported the magnificent dome. The walls on all four sides of the hall emitted a bright blue light. Even the underground space more than ten meters deep was brightly illuminated. The ground was paved with neat and smooth obsidian slabs, on which an intricate magic circle was cast with silvery-white metal liquid, which was very eye-catching.

However, soon, all my attention was attracted by a huge mechanical device. It stood in the center of the hall, like a giant tower connecting the dome and the underground. There were extremely deep and fine lines on the black and white metal surface, as if every structure had been crafted with the utmost care.

A dark golden crystal floated quietly on the groove in the center of the device, with a trace of light flowing from time to time.

For some reason, I seemed to see a beating heart. These magic circles, mechanical devices, and even the entire hall were the blood vessels of this heart, continuously supplying blood to the entire castle, or the entire dark world.

"This is the Heart of Herontis, the supreme artifact of the dark camp. Your Highness the Demon King, you can try to control it."

Hill's voice rang in my ears.

Manipulation?

I looked at my fair palm, then raised my head to look at the floating dark golden gem, then hesitantly stretched out my hand.

But soon, I discovered a very serious problem.

"Um...Hill, help me hold it."

The regret about my height was so strong that I covered my face.

Shaking my head, I refocused my attention on the dark golden gem in front of me. With Hill's help, I could easily reach out and touch the surface of the gem.

A dazzling golden light burst out from the gem and instantly flowed through the entire mechanical device, magic circle, and wall, lighting up the entire core room like a switch.

Before I could react to what was happening, a silver screen of light suddenly appeared in front of me.

[Heart of Herontis] [Level 1]

Bound by: The 19th Demon King

Energy: 200

Existing buildings: Obsidian Castle, Warehouse, Eternal Tree

It was a very simple panel, with no extra information. I couldn't help but wonder, "Hill, that's all it has."
