I have a hero simulator

"That's it. Suddenly, those damn pigs and pig-headed orcs attacked us!"

Benimaru said angrily.

The one who attacked them was the Orc army, a lower-ranking race than them.

Except for the six survivors, all the other big ghosts in the village were killed.

As the shrine maiden who gathers the centripetal force of the great demon clan, Shuna was also rescued first.

While the village chief led his people to contain the orc army, Hongmaru escaped with his sister Shuna and others.

"I also understand the situation of the Pigmen."

Shen Yuan recalled what happened a few days ago and said casually.

"Hmm? Lord Buu, do you know why those orcs rioted?!"

Shion, a tall, high-ranking demon with a queen-like figure, spoke.

"I saw."

Shen Yuan told the story of how the pig-headed people devoured their king due to hunger, then suffered a curse, and faced extinction. Later, they were bewitched by a masked demon and began to invade the Jula Forest.

"It sounds like the Pig-Headed People are suffering too... but that's no reason for them to target other races!"

"That's right! Sin is sin!"

"A pig-headed man who ate his own king, fell into depravity, and devoured everything with greed, at any cost, is unforgivable!"

Hongwan, Bai Lao and others said in a strong tone.

They described the last scene they saw: that their chief was killed by a pig-headed soldier wearing black armor.

The pig-headed soldier was huge and exuded a strange demonic aura.

There was another guy besides him.

The man had an overtly ferocious and evil aura, and his face was covered with an angry clown mask.

"That guy is a demon, and a high-level demon that my brother can't defeat."

Zhu Cai recalled.

"That's why when my brother and the others first met you, Master Buu, they mistook you for an accomplice of the demon..."

"Now that I think about it, that clown-masked demon is not even worthy of carrying Lord Buu's shoes."

Shion asserted this.

"How tactless! Don't I look more domineering than that demon? And I never wear a mask. I am a demon, but my strength far exceeds that of an ordinary demon king."

Shen Yuan remembered that intelligent monsters were generally called demons. Therefore, the Great Ghost Clan was actually considered a type of demon, along with vampires, werewolves, and the like. However, those the Great Ghost Clan called "high-level demons" were naturally much more powerful than them.

Monsters become very difficult and dangerous when they have intelligence. They can not only use magic, weapons, and traps, but also understand strategies and tactics.

As for high-level demons, Shen Yuan gave them an "A" disaster-level standard, and their combat power generally fluctuated around 20.

"I'm sorry! Lord Buu, that's not what we meant..."

Shuna quickly apologized weakly.

However, in her eyes, Majin Buu does not look evil or scary at first glance, but rather a bit cute. He gives the impression of being a personified slime with pink skin. Because it is a warm color, as opposed to dark black and dark purple, it is more likely to give people the impression that he is "harmless".

Refer to the difference between Fat Buu and Skinny Buu, and combine the two. Buu has a balanced body. When he is not angry, no one knows whether he is good or evil, and he does not look like a powerful character.

"No need to explain. Anyway, that black-armored pig-headed soldier should be the next Pig-Headed Emperor."

Shen Yuan recalled the events of the Pigmen tribe and continued, "They launched this large-scale war, naturally not specifically to target you. Instead, they intend to rule the entire Jura Forest."

"To be precise—it's actually the forces under the 'Demon King' who are helping them."

Shen Yuan's words at this moment made the six people of the Big Ghost Clan stunned for a moment.

"Demon King? Isn't Lord Buu the Demon King?"

"No, I'm the unrecognized 'Demon King.' I've only been in the Jura Forest for a few days, but the Pigmen's hunger and rebellion began long before then. Rather, when I freed my brother, the Storm Dragon, the other 'Demon King' forces set their sights on the Jura Forest. However, due to a treaty, they couldn't invade directly. Instead, they incited the Pigmen, spreading disasters among them, and using them to seize everything."

These are two pieces of heavyweight news.

The clever Zhu Cai reacted in an instant.

On the other side, Ziyuan and others were also shocked by Shen Yuan's other words.

"You, you are the brother of Lord Veldora, the guardian of the Jura Forest, the Storm Dragon?!"

"No wonder Veldora-sama's aura disappeared some time ago. This will reduce the threat to the Demon Lords. They will definitely be ready to make a move..."

Shuna's eyes flashed with wisdom and anxiety as she patiently explained, "Because outside this forest lies the vast Demon Continent. It's a fertile land, where a vast number of war slaves and golems work."

"The Demon Continent is home to many 'Demon Empires ruled by Demon Kings,' and the Jura Forest lies at the border between the Demon Empires and the human kingdoms. In other words, the Great Forest is a crucial strategic location. Because of Lord Storm Dragon's suppression, the Demon Kings dare not directly cross the forest to attack the human world. Now Lord Storm Dragon has disappeared..."

"The demon lords will definitely try to expand their territory, right?"

"Correct!"

In short, we now know the situation facing the Jura Forest and the positions of both the demons and humans.

Compared with these two, the Jura Forest is currently in an absolutely neutral state.

The Demon King's Demon Empire will not openly declare war on the Jura Forest, but will choose to secretly support the Pig-Headed People as cannon fodder for testing.

"So what should we do next..."

After realizing that the destruction of the Great Demon Clan was indirectly related to the Demon King, Hongwan was angry, but more powerless.

He was too weak to even deal with the Demon King's messenger - the "High-level Demon".

"I believe the Demon King will not give up after the Pig-Headed Man dominates the forest. If we want to intimidate the Demon King of the Demon Empire and make the Jura Forest more valued by all forces, we must first have a guardian like Lord Veldora."

After Zhu Cai said this, he looked at Shen Yuan frequently.

After gazing at his reaction, I continued, "Since Lord Buu has chosen to become the 'Demon King' of the Jura Forest, this means we now have a lord, just like the Demon Empire and other factions. So, regarding future strategies, I suggest that in order to revive the tribe, the Great Demon Clan should fully support Lord Buu, forge the Jura Forest Demon Federation, and gather strength to fight the incoming pig-headed men! A victory in this battle will undoubtedly put pressure on the Demon King, and he'll have to think twice before sending troops against us."

"Shunai is right!"

"Exactly. We must take revenge on the orcs to show our loyalty to Lord Buu!"

"We will follow Master Buu!"

The big ghosts swore without hesitation.

Well, it seems that they have already made up their minds.

Recalling the moment when I met them just now, those eyes looked clear and flawless, which shows that the hearts of these low-level demons are very simple, while the hearts of groups like humans are complicated.

Most of the human beings believe in various "gods".

The monsters' faith is naturally the "Demon King".

"But I have a question."

Benimaru stopped walking and said in confusion, "Lord Buu has such great power, why doesn't he just go and destroy the Pig-Headed Clan alone?"

After hearing his question, the other big ghosts also thought about it for a while.

Probably waiting for Shen Yuan's answer, everyone else remained silent.

"That's a good question. Why shouldn't I go and kill the Pig-Headed Man and save the Jura Forest?"

Shen Yuan smiled and replied calmly, "But why should I destroy the Pig-Headed Man and save the Jura Forest?"

"Eh? Isn't it because they attacked the tribes in the Jura Forest..."

It seems that Benimaru's brain is not as good as Shuna and Shion's, or maybe he hasn't evolved thoroughly enough.

"Idiot brother!"

Shuna couldn't help but scold, "Have you forgotten that Buu-sama hasn't yet become the 'Demon King of the Jura Forest'? From a position of mind, when the Pig-headed Men began their rebellion, the Jura Forest had no protector and was leaderless. Therefore, the Pig-headed Men's invasion naturally didn't constitute a provocation to the Demon King, but rather a legitimate expansion!"

"Yeah! You're really stupid, but it makes sense. After all, the Great Ghost Tribe hasn't evolved completely yet."

Shion grumbled along, completely forgetting that she was once a member of these barbaric tribes not long ago, but now she was higher in level and much smarter.

"Uh...I was stupid."

After being scolded by his sister and Shion, Benimaru suddenly became quiet.

"I'm sorry, Lord Buu, I don't know these things..."

"That's fine. I've just arrived in the Jura Forest, and was only recently recognized by its dryads. However, because I'm a 'self-proclaimed Demon King,' I'm not recognized by any other tribe, so I don't have the authority to rule the Jura Forest. I need to wait until the village chiefs of other tribes, including the dwarves, lizardmen, and goblin lords, declare me the 'King' of the Jura Forest. Only then will my voice be legitimate. Once that happens, I'll declare to the outside world that anyone who invades the Jura Forest is a provocation. Only then will I have legitimate reason to take action against the forces of the other Demon Kings."

Shen Yuan then added:

"Before I became the master of the Jura Forest, I had no reason to destroy the pig-headed men unless they attacked me."

"Of course, you might wonder, a Demon King so powerful that he can completely disregard the rules and kill whomever he pleases. But that's a grave mistake, unless you don't intend to seriously develop your own power, but rather become a 'lone wolf' Demon King. Otherwise, if you don't follow the rules, other Demon Kings won't cooperate with you, and your subordinates will only fear you. Then, when I rule the Jura Forest, I won't be a legitimate 'Guardian' but a 'tyrant forcing obedience upon all races.'"

After hearing what Shen Yuan said, the big ghosts except Zhucai Shiyuan suddenly realized what was going on.

No wonder they are just ordinary monsters, while Shen Yuan is the Demon King.

This is not just a difference in strength, but more about the understanding of governance.

"Besides, if the Jura Great Forest had nothing to do with me, I would definitely kill whoever I wanted. But the monsters in the entire Jura Great Forest were born from the influence of the magic of the "Storm Dragon". You are all my brother Veldora's children, offspring, and so on. I still have a conscience, so I can't do anything bad."

The second half of the sentence was completely redundant, but the people of the Great Ghost Clan also shuddered when they heard it.

They were able to survive thanks to the relationship between the Storm Dragon and the Jura Forest.

If it weren't for the Storm Dragon, this place might have been wiped out by Lord Buu...

"Fortunately, we are not Lord Buu's enemies."

......

One night later.

Because except for Shion and Shuna, the movement speed of the other six big demons is not as fast as flying.

It takes two full days to return to the village where Rimuru is.

Shen Yuan was not in a hurry, so he followed them.

But it would be more accurate to say that they were "carrying a sedan chair" rather than following. The two great ghosts, Black Guard and Cangying, carried a sedan chair with a canopy that looked like the throne that the great demon king rode in Journey to the West. This showed the demon king's nobility and matched his status.

This was also the forced request of Shuna and the others, while Hongmaru was responsible for guarding and clearing the way in front, and Bai Lao followed behind, cleaning up the traces and being alert to nearby enemies.

During this process of carrying the sedan chair, Shen Yuan gradually fell into a deep sleep.

Although Majin Buu has unlimited energy and physical strength and rarely sleeps, he does hibernate for two months once a year.

However, Shen Yuan's hero template is "Zac", so theoretically he doesn't need to rest.

In theory, it is theoretical, but he can take a rest on his own initiative.

The benefit of taking an active rest is that it is like "saving" your memory. Even if you die accidentally next time, you will start from this save point when you are reborn.

Although he still retained consciousness, Shen Yuan, who was in a half-asleep state, did not continue to maintain the form of a demon.

Instead, it returned to its original form.

The so-called original form is the same as Rimuru now: a big lump of pink slime.

It's just like the amorphous slime state that occurs when the passive ability of the bio-demon Zach is triggered when he dies. No, it should be said that it is in this form.

A pink, soft lump.

But if you get close, you can sense that it is actually a group of magic particles with a strong and high concentration.

It's like a power bank.

When approaching it, the power of any monster will grow at a rate of "percentage".

It was like Hongwan was only within two meters of it, and his existence value was like super fast charging. In just a few hours, Hongwan's combat power went from a weak A-level monster at the beginning to a special A-level demon cadre level, and it was estimated that he would soon reach the S-level demon king level.

After a whole night, the combat power of Hongwan and others was increased to the level of slightly weaker demon kings such as Pig Head Emperor, and they could destroy some military countries alone.

The speed at which this combat power is increased is exaggerated.

But the most unexpected thing was when Shen Yuan finished the 'memory archive' and was about to wake up.

He felt something soft pressing against him, and a pleasant smell surrounded him, making his entire pink slime body feel light and fluttery. It seemed as if someone was gently caressing him, and it felt a little familiar.

It’s like returning to my wives.

Maybe I'm thinking too much.
