Very good, food and energy. Livi feels that if these two major problems can be solved, let alone social reform, if we save up for a hundred or eighty years, we might be able to quickly enter the modern society.

"Forget it, I'll just eat my meal one bite at a time and walk my path one step at a time..."

Li Wei shook her head, thinking that she was being too eager for success and too aggressive, always thinking that she could solve all the problems at once, which was not good...

...Besides, she still only has two or three cats and kittens around her. No matter how good she is at fighting, there are still many problems in this world that cannot be solved with fists.

We can't rush things, and we must further increase the talent we lack to make up for the shortcomings. For example, now, the problem of the stigmata was originally unresolved, but with the addition of Star, isn't there immediate progress?

Therefore, the most urgent task is to solve the imminent problem at hand first, which is to unify the Demon Realm first and turn the demons into one's own force.

In this case, Equio, who might actually be the Demon King of this generation, has become a complete obstacle both because of the Demon King's mark on his body and because of his identity as the Demon King itself.

At the same time, it is the best material for Livi and Star.

"Well, Mava, Aenekos, get ready and come with me to meet the so-called demon king..."

As for Star...

"...You should continue to study the divine arts of the holy marks, and think about whether you can solve the problem of the experimental field."

"Yes, Your Highness Livi~"

Although in fact, Sta is the strongest subordinate of Livi at the moment, at least he is definitely better at fighting than Mava and Aenekos.

However, her three axes require a lot of configuration and need to be arranged in advance to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

And for Livi, the most useful part of Star is not her fighting ability, but her brain.

To sum up, instead of letting her follow me to fight all over the country, it is better to leave her at home and let her focus on scientific research.

"Let's go... Let's go meet the so-called 'Demon King'..."

Chapter 60: There is a Clear Stupidity in the Eyes

At this moment, Equio's mood is quite complicated...

... Mainly because he found that his idea seemed to have collapsed again.

He originally thought that he could build up his prestige by subduing the Demon General, but he found that the other side didn't buy his account at all, and his attitude towards him from beginning to end was nothing but contempt and ridicule.

How can I bear this? I just got the Demon King's Seal!

So, Equio confronted the opponent head-on, but he was almost killed by the opponent in the first encounter...

...But since Equio is still standing here, instead of becoming the nutrients that make Abaddon stronger, it means that he is not the one who died.

However, his memory of defeating Abaddon was very vague, or even almost nonexistent.

He recalled that this was very similar to the first time he awakened the Demon King's Mark. He also suddenly lost consciousness after receiving a fatal threat. When he regained consciousness, the Demon King's Mark was left on his body, and all he could see were corpses scattered all over the ground.

He had no idea what happened during this period.

But he knew one thing, this should be the power of his Demon King's Mark. The more "angry" he was, the stronger his power seemed to become.

But when his anger reaches a certain level, he seems to lose control. However, at least from the current situation, this loss of control does not cause any extra burden on his body.

Even every time he recovered from losing control, his strength would increase significantly.

And maybe it’s because of this influence, but Equio feels that his temper has become more and more irritable recently. Of course, this may also be because everyone he meets treats him as a fool.

Even though he is indeed a fool, so the truth hurts the most...

...Equio wanted to use his power to make Abaddon recognize him as the Demon King, but he didn't expect that when he regained consciousness... he saw the mountain-like body falling apart in front of him.

However, things have come to this point, and there is naturally no other way. He can only settle for the next best thing and spread the news that he has eliminated the Demon General.

I can't subdue the Demon General, but I defeated him head-on, so that's an achievement after all, right?

Then, just as he released the news, he heard the news that Livi had conquered Star, and for a moment, he followed the Muggles again.

What? The demon general Star was subdued by someone? And the person who subdued her claimed to be the demon king?

If that succubus named Livy is the Demon King...

...Then what am I? !

This made Equio extremely confused, but after thinking about it, he made a decision.

“…Someone is trying to impersonate me!”

It was not surprising that he came to such a conclusion immediately. After all, he was indeed sure that he was the Demon King. In this case, Livi, who also claimed to be the Demon King, must be a fake.

Therefore, he immediately threw the idea of ​​recruiting younger brothers behind his mind. His biggest idea now was to "fight counterfeiting"...

...That's right, since he is the Demon King, then Livi must be a fake. As the real one, I certainly can't let the imposter go!

At the same time, he came up with a new idea.

Could it be that no one believed that he was the Demon King before, just because of Livi? If this fake Demon King is dealt with, will others believe it?

Of course, what he didn't realize was that most people were not willing to accept that Livi was the real thing. If Livi and Equio were compared at the beginning, most demons would be more willing to accept that Equio was the real demon king.

It sounds too weird that the succubus will inherit the position of the Demon King. In comparison, the tiefling is much more reliable.

After all, they are a race with a legitimate demon image, and there have been many big demons in the race, as well as special individuals like "Baphomet".

However, these were all judgments based on first impressions before meeting the two people, and any demon who came into contact with Equio would instantly come to the conclusion.

Regardless of whether it is Livi or not, this demon boy with an underdeveloped cerebellum and a clear, stupid look in his eyes is unlikely to be the Demon King.

Even if he is the Demon King, everyone will just feel despair. Why not restart the game and wait for the next refresh? This Demon King is 100% doomed.

Equio, who was unaware that it was his own ability that distanced him from the title of Demon King, once again concluded that it was because of imposters like Livi that he ended up in such a miserable state.

So, he decided to find Livi to settle the matter and find out who the real devil was.

However, after he took the first step with great momentum, he was confused again...

...Where is the succubus named Livi now?

The last news we heard about Livi was that she fought with Dullahan in the North, and then went to the South to conquer Star. By this calculation, Livi should be in the South now.

"Southern Territory, right? Good!"

With the route planned in his mind, Equio jumped twice on the spot, then exerted force with his feet, and the whole person catapulted into flight with a loud bang.

As soon as he left, Abaddon's viscous corpse, which had shattered like a mountain, slowly melted into countless bubbles and merged into the poisonous swamp, disappearing without a trace...

As for Livi, Star was left behind to continue her research, while the rest of the people naturally set out to capture Equio in order to obtain the Demon King's Mark to study and verify their ideas.

Still riding on the rock-armored beast, Mawa stood on the beast's back, carrying a bone blade and looking at the scenery in the distance. Although she was not used to this dark and ghostly place in the southern border when she first arrived, she got used to it after staying here for more than half a month.

"Boss Livi, we have been patrolling nearby recently, but I heard that your name has spread throughout the Demon Realm~"

Although the southern border is almost entirely inhabited by undead creatures, there are occasionally some demons from other regions that temporarily reside there, such as the "Night Demons".

These demons are not used to staying in one area for too long, mainly because their groups are too scattered and not powerful enough, and the demons themselves have no need to stay and produce, so many demons of mediocre strength cannot occupy land and become kings, and they all wander around.

Just like when Livi first met Mava, she was just wandering by...

...In short, news of the Demon Realm was spread from the mouths of these demons. Yes, most of the current information transmission systems in the Demon Realm are still in the primitive stage of "messaging by shouting".

Following Livi's orders, Mava has been practicing the use of battle formations with the goblin women, and has been communicating with these demons during daily patrols.

Although fights broke out in most cases, there were occasionally some relatively "peaceful" conversations, and Mawa also learned a lot of information from these demons.

"It seems that the guy named Equio is asking around for Lady Livi's whereabouts~"

Chapter 61: A historic meeting~

Equio seems to be asking around for Livi's whereabouts, and is currently in the Southland.

This news also made Livi very happy. It was great. I didn't have to go to your house to find you, but you came to my door yourself.

If you could be so sensible every time you meet an opponent, you could really save a lot of energy.

However, after all, the other party should have inherited the Demon King's Mark, so Livi felt that she should be more or less careful.

After all, the opponent defeated the Demon General Abaddon in a head-on battle, so he must have real skills.

Even at this moment, many rumors about Equio prove that this demon boy seems to be a guy with a not very good brain. In short, he is a fool.

But they also had to admit that Equiao was really good at fighting...

...After all, with the arrogant character he displayed at this moment, if he wasn't good at fighting, he would have been beaten to death long ago.

However, there are reasons to believe that he was not like this at the beginning. It seems that he became more and more flamboyant after obtaining the mark of the Demon King.

This is normal. If he was born with this personality, he would never live to awaken the Demon King's Mark and would have been cut into sashimi long ago.

Anyway...

"... After all, he is also a demon king, so we should at least give him some basic respect."

then……

...After wandering around the southern border for nearly a week, Equio was very depressed to find that...he could not find Livi's whereabouts at all.

Although everyone said that Livi came to the South Territory and conquered the ruler of the South Territory, the Demon General Star.

However, after that, Livi had been hiding her whereabouts and studying the secrets of the stigmata with Star. During this period, many demons came to find out Livi's whereabouts and secrets, but all returned empty-handed.

Although most of these demons have low IQs, they at least look more like human beings than Equio, and there are also some old perverts who have lived for a hundred or eighty years among them.

These demons were also those who had survived the previous war of invasion of the main continent, and they had some brains to a certain extent. With their abilities, they were completely unable to find out any information related to Livi, let alone Equio.

This made Equio at a loss, not to mention the more important point, the terrain of the Demon Realm was quite bad, as there were almost no landmark buildings to assist in judgment, and determining the direction depended entirely on rote memorization.

Livi went through so much hardship in order to open the map, so Equio naturally didn't want to fall behind at all. Livi at least made a serious map. Although this map is still quite incomplete, it has explored about 60% to 70% of the north and south borders.

Equio rushed into the southern border and instantly felt like a headless fly. Apart from being harassed by the pork belly and high-calcium tablets growing underground every day, he was not sure if he was just going around in circles after a week.

"…Miscalculated."

He looked around in a daze. Everything was pitch black and dark, and everything looked the same. He himself couldn't tell whether he had been to this area before or not.

That would be fine, but after he came to this area, he felt increasingly hungry...

...After he obtained the Demon King's Mark, he could use the mark to absorb discrete magic power in the atmosphere to replenish his body's consumption. Basically, all higher-level demons did that.

Otherwise, if they rely solely on food, there simply aren't that many things in this demon realm that can serve as food for these demons to survive.

But after arriving in the southern border, the efficiency of absorbing magic power became quite low.

This was naturally the effect of the barrier set up by Star. Since undead creatures did not need to eat, the barrier covering the entire area had the effect of suppressing living things.

In short, the body will consume more energy than usual to resist the corpse qi that is surrounding it from all directions.

Originally this wasn't a problem, at least not for Livi.

Livi's efficiency in absorbing magic power is enough to offset the consumption, and one good thing about her group of heroes is that they themselves cannot fight, so their demand for energy is even lower.

This is the basic law of nature. The smaller your body size, the less you eat. Although these goblins and lesser demons are inefficient in absorbing magic power, the amount of magic power they consume is small. They only need to absorb a small amount of magic power to maintain the functioning of their bodies.

These weak fish have no other abilities except for their vitality as strong as weeds. If it weren't for their strong adaptability, they would have been wiped out a hundred or eighty years ago.

But the same cannot be said for Equio. Ever since he awakened the Mark of the Demon King, his body's demand for magic power has been increasing.

This addition and subtraction results in Equiao often having an empty stomach.

He covered his stomach and his face turned grim. He could only fill the need through other means besides absorbing magic power. Simply put... hunting for food.

But this is the southern border... There are no living things here. The only meat is the pork belly that has been rotten into a paste.

…Even the ogre Mava was disgusted by the sight, not to mention Equio. He tried to prepare himself mentally for a long time, but he still couldn't bring himself to eat the rotten meat oozing with pus.

Oh no, that's bad!

Could it be that I, the great Demon King, would starve to death in this damn place? !

This is of course impossible. After all, no matter what, it is still no problem to absorb enough magic power to ensure the basic needs of the body.

It's like a person who only eats one meal a day. He won't die, but he will be very hungry...

Just when he was about to see green light from hunger, a huge monster suddenly appeared in his sight while he was leaning on a bone as a crutch.
