There was no movement around and teleportation was unusable. The old devil was obviously stunned for a moment. After hearing Luo Zhen's urging, he continued with what he had just said.
"Because the union was not successful, the relationship between monsters and humans in that era was completely hostile. This was the tone set by the first Demon King."
"The young man was interested, but my ancestor was ruthless. He agreed temporarily just to paralyze the other party."
"Afterwards, they held a banquet under the pretext of celebrating, but secretly arranged their forces. When the boy was drunk and completely unable to resist, they smashed the cup as a signal, and three to five hundred elite soldiers of the Demon King's army rushed out and chopped off the boy who was almost a hero."
Damn, this damn sense of déjà vu...
The corners of Luo Zhen's mouth twitched slightly, but he did not interrupt the old devil's narration.
"The abilities of the reincarnated can be inherited through blood. Since they can be inherited through blood, they can be taken away. It's just complicated and the chance of success is not high. The boy's experience was the only successful one."
"Gradually, it was passed down and formed the ability to strengthen others. If I were still young, I could even strengthen hundreds of monsters at once."
The old devil explained it this way, but Luo Zhen had new doubts.
"Then why is your name Yasaka Kyoichi, just a coincidence?"
"Oh, this, this is because the ancestors found that the names of the reincarnated people were strange and similar, so they changed them to similar names."
"Speaking of which, the effect is surprisingly good. When the reincarnated people who come to cause trouble hear the name, they will be stunned for a moment. It can be used to launch a surprise attack, or when you can't win, you can distract the opponent by asking the name."
"...your ancestors were really despicable."
"That's what you said."
"Forget it, let's skip over that and get to the point. What is a demon king and the cause of the hatred between demons and humans."
The biggest gossip has been learned, which is quite different from what Luo Zhen thought, but it is acceptable.
Then comes the biggest secret.
More than six hundred years have passed since Aqua first released the first batch of reincarnated beings into this world.
There will be a longer blank period before the reincarnation begins, and the Demon King is likely to exist as well.
Over such a long period of time, the demon king has been replaced one after another.
Although it has not been explicitly mentioned, there are definitely quite a few demon lords who have been killed.
So...what's the point of killing the Demon King?
Monsters and humans have been fighting for so long, why is there still no result? How can a war last for hundreds or thousands of years without a clear winner? This is not a fantasy world.
When asked the key point, the old devil's face became cautious, and he opened his mouth but no sound came out.
After thinking for a moment and seeing that Luo Zhen was getting impatient, he slowly spoke.
"I can tell you, but you have to promise not to vent your anger on me."
"Speak boldly, can't you see that I am not a native of this world."
After hearing the assurance and taking another look at Luo Zhen, the man with black hair and black pupils, the old devil seemed relieved and began to tell the story.
"I don't know much, it's all passed down from my ancestors, but it's all based on facts."
"First of all, monsters are species that were born and bred naturally in this world. Humans are outsiders!"
The first word was a powerful bomb, and the key was that Luo Zhen could sense that the old devil was not lying.
Not lying doesn't mean that this thing is true, but it does mean that the old devil really thinks so.
"Is there any basis for this?"
"There is no direct evidence, but Demon King is an inherited profession, while Hero is just a title. The profession is determined by the world, and the title is given by people."
"As long as the Demon King is still around, the monsters will continue to grow stronger. Doesn't this prove that the world is leaning towards the monsters? If the heavens hadn't continuously sent reincarnated people to do all kinds of bad things, the human kingdom would have been overthrown long ago."
“It makes some sense, but it’s far-fetched.”
"It is recorded in the books left by our ancestors that humans have not yet been born naturally in this world. Humans were brought here by the unified divine world. The gods want sovereignty over this world."
"Hell and the divine world both use similar methods to control the future of the world."
"Babel was friends with my earliest ancestor, the first Demon King, so he supports the demons, but Hell doesn't care about this world because the gods acted too early and Hell doesn't want to make any effort."
"As the natives of this world, monsters naturally have the support of the world. If the gods want this world, they can't just take action against the monsters."
"So, they brought an upgrade system, which is also implemented in many worlds. The so-called plundering soul fragments to upgrade is actually plundering the characteristics of monsters and gaining recognition from the world."
"Such a long time has passed, and by my generation, the minimum requirement for recognition has been reached. In other words, I may be the last Demon King, the last support of the world. The monsters are getting stronger at a speed far exceeding that of the past."
"Do you think it's easy for me to lead a group of problem children to conquer the world every day? If there is no other way, who would be willing to take so much trouble!"
At this point, the old devil became emotional and his tone turned angry.
This is the resistance of monsters!
The old devil knew that even if this world was controlled by gods, the monsters would not disappear, but could he accept it calmly?
The world doesn't want it, and neither do the monsters!
It seems that none of these words are false.

"Others can have a harem, but I can't?"

"If you want to kill me, then do it. I understand. Although you are not a human from this world, you are still a member of the human race."
The old devil spoke for a long time, and in order to show the changes in tone, he spoke word by word, as if he was reciting a poem.
But even so, he didn't notice any movement coming from outside the room.
No matter how stupid the old devil is, he can figure out that it’s not that the cadres don’t want to rescue him, but that they can’t come!
As for the possibility of Luo Zhen letting him go...
The old devil leads a group of problem children-like cadres all day long. Although they have been infected with some bad habits, their IQ is still online.
Monsters are monsters, humans are humans, there is no right or wrong. This is a racial struggle and a question of stance.
Not to mention, in his explanation just now, he mentioned the widely circulated story of the reincarnated boy who turned from a brave man into a demon king. The first human who wanted to help the monster has become the monster's food.
There was no reason for this powerful and terrifying man in front of him to let him go.
The old devil closed his eyes. He had nothing to say.
"Do you want to die?"
Luo Zhen asked this question, but the old devil still closed his eyes and showed no intention of replying.
Luo Zhen already had a general understanding of the cause and effect of the matter. Although he could not confirm its authenticity, the credibility was very high.
Tearing aside the relaxed, funny and hilarious atmosphere, the purpose of the gods sending reincarnated people here is very pure, it is just for profit.
It was different from the fun that Luo Zhen had initially guessed, but it seemed more real.
Of course, Aqua might not know that.
I'm just a chosen worker, I don't understand, but I just keep doing the job of sending people to reincarnation.
Although Eris and Aqua both acted kind.
But, the divine world cannot be a public welfare organization. Why not do something profitable? Spreading faith is one thing, and conquering the world is another.
Vanir has made it clear that the gods and hell are fighting for the future of the world, but does this so-called future refer to the ownership of the world?
Eris might know about this...
The Church of Eris is the state religion after all. The goddess of luck is just kind, not a saint, and she herself is a bit sinister.
Plus, in her eyes, having gods control the world might never be a bad thing.
Humans can survive better, monsters will not disappear, and although the world has lost its freedom, it has gained the support of the gods, which is better than falling into the hands of hell.
From the moment this world was discovered, its fate was already determined. If the gods don't take action, then hell will have to.
From this perspective, there is no problem on either side. What is the problem?
The problem is that the world is too weak and the monsters are too weak!
"You said before that Demon King is a profession?"
Seeing that the old devil did not answer his question, Luo Zhen immediately asked a new question.
He was not in a hurry to take action. As he said before, this was a matter of stance and there was no right or wrong.
If anything, Luo Zhen will stand on the side of humans and will not let the Demon King's army destroy humans, even though he is not a human from this world.
But, if the general direction does not change, who says we can't reap some benefits?
According to Eris, saving the world can eliminate the bad luck debuff. Aqua has contributed enough, but there is still a little bit short, so Luo Zhen came to the Demon King's Castle.
But now, according to the old devil, killing him is not saving the world at all.
Luo Zhen looked down upon the pitiful amount of experience points that the old devil could provide.
It can be killed, but there is no need. There are better options that Luo Zhen is more interested in.
After all, where is the conflict between humans and monsters?
The reason is that the gods want to gain sovereignty over this world, but the monsters don't want to give it up.
There are no irreconcilable conflicts between humans and monsters. Humans are a means for the gods to achieve their goals.
According to the Demon King, the profession of Demon King seems to be crucial when it comes to the issue of world sovereignty. It is the greatest support the world gives to monsters.
Get benefits, resolve conflicts, and restrain the behavior of the Demon King's army.
Then there is only one answer!
Wouldn’t it be better if he could be the devil?
As if he had heard the hidden meaning in Luo Zhen's words, the old devil quickly opened his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him with an extremely surprised look.
"No buddy, I've already said this, you want to be the devil again?"
"Don't you understand? Although I don't want to admit it, in fact, monsters have no future!"
"In this situation, do you still want to be a demon king?"
The words were full of confusion. Killing him now and becoming a great hero of mankind would be the best solution. Becoming a demon king...
What is this man thinking?
The Demon King couldn't understand the current situation and thought Luo Zhen was crazy.
"Could it be possible... that I can still survive?"
Such a thought appeared in the mind of the old devil, but the next moment, Luo Zhen's words shattered his fantasy.
"If I'm not mistaken, this profession should be compatible with other professions. You can learn the skills of each profession and pass them on to others."
"Then let's make a deal. Use your life and the profession of Demon King in exchange for the right of demons to continue to survive in this world."
The Demon King did not have an accurate answer as to how the gods would deal with monsters.
Just combining the cases given by Vanir and my own speculation, I came to the conclusion that monsters will still exist, but the intelligent individuals among them will slowly disappear.
His death sealed the ending...
The position of the Demon King can be inherited, but the difficulty of active and passive skills is definitely different.
There is probably no chance for the passive effect to work, as it will be cut off in his generation.
If he took the initiative, he would have 1-2 chances, and only his daughter would be suitable. But he was reluctant to let his daughter face the grim situation.
And now, there is one more option, which is also the only option at present.
What kind of deal is this? It just sounds good. Does he have any choice?
Either die here and end the monsters' resistance, or take a gamble and choose to believe Luo Zhen's promise.
Ever since Luo Zhen brought up this matter, it has been a multiple-choice question with only one option.
