Ziyin pressed her hand against her temple, looking at the beautiful woman in the portrait. She felt like she saw it often, but she couldn't remember who it was...

"This is... the first generation of the Demon King."

"what!"

After being reminded by the future, Ziyin suddenly understood.

The woman in the portrait is indeed the first generation Demon King.

Shion and Mirai have been frequenting the academy recently, and have seen portraits, biographies, and sculptures related to the first generation Demon King in many places, so they have some impression of him.

"But why is there such a huge portrait?"

After confirming that there was no danger around, Weilai and Ziyin entered the door holding candles and observed the details inside.

It's like an art exhibition inside, with countless huge portraits hanging on the walls, extending all the way to the end of the road.

Beneath each portrait, valuable items are stored, and there are metal plates engraved with the glorious deeds of the portrait's owner.

"This is the first generation Demon King, so, the next one could be..."

Mirai and Ziyin gasped at the same time, and a bold idea appeared in their minds.

When they came to the second portrait with candlelight, the writing on the metal piece reflecting the dazzling light was clear...

"The second generation of the Demon King, the Wind Demon King, reigned for 80 years."

"This, this is the database that stores the Demon King's information!"

Weilai and Ziyin were both shocked and discovered incredible information.

No wonder no clues were found after a whole month of investigation. It turned out to be just as Mochi said, all the information was stored in a secret place.

So, the road shot is just...

"The current Demon King..."

Wei Li looked at the darkness deep in the room, and a certain uneasy premonition was stirring in his heart.

"My butt hurts..."

Mochi kept yelling, but in fact it didn't hurt anymore, he just didn't want to go in.

"Master Guardian Beast, please rest here for a while. We will be back soon."

Wei Lai held the faint light, left Mochi behind for the time being, and took Zi Yin to the deepest part of the room.

"Da da..."

Light footsteps.

The two walked in the room, and under the gaze of the huge portrait, they were like crawling ants, feeling unprecedented pressure, and every step seemed to be crossing the history of the demon world.

Finally, the continuity of the painting was broken.

Near the end of the room, a blank space appeared on the wall, indicating that they had reached the end of history.

"..."

The two men came to the last giant portrait tremblingly, not daring to breathe. The candlelight in their hands trembled along with their arms, and their hearts were beating violently.

Now, the terrifying demon king who is ready to start a war is about to unveil his mysterious veil before them.

What kind of monster is this...

Mirai took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, bit her lip, and made up her mind. She mustered up the courage to hold up the candle in her hand, letting the light unveil the Devil's veil.

Then, the portrait that came into her eyes was...

"tyrant"

The moment they saw the portrait, these words appeared in their minds.

It was a demon with a tiger's head and a human body. Its muscles were as strong and hard as metal. It sat arrogantly on a golden throne. Its violent murderous aura could crush everything. Its sharp eyes seemed like a living thing, and could make people feel fear even through the portrait.

There is no doubt that this is a "demon king".

Just like the boss in the old RPG games, he is a powerful person whose domineering aura can be felt just by looking at his appearance.

If they met each other in the real world, these two magical girls would definitely be so scared that they would be unable to move or even faint.

In the demon world, they had seen demons with animal heads and human bodies before, but the demon in the portrait was the first one to display such a terrifying murderous aura.

but...

"It's a little weird."

Looking at the portrait in front of him, Wei Li always felt that something was wrong. The gap between the portrait and the information provided by the predecessors was too big and they did not match at all.

Wouldn't a demon with such a distinctive appearance be easily noticeable? He didn't look like a scheming type, but rather a combat type who preferred to use his muscles.

Could it be that the senior’s speculation was wrong?

"Future, look here!"

Ziyin seemed to notice something and pointed to the metal piece below the portrait as a reminder.

"What's wrong?"

Mirai blinked, bent down slightly, brought the candlelight in his hand close to the magic metal piece, and began to read the words on it.

...

"this..."

“This time period is…”

"Two hundred years ago?!"

Wei Li's eyes widened, and he was shocked again.

According to the records on the metal plate, this "last" demon king actually lived two hundred years ago and eventually "mysteriously disappeared."

This is so weird...

At that time, humans and demons had not yet established diplomatic relations, and the two races were still completely separate.

If this demon king is the "last demon king", then what exactly happened to the subsequent "establishment of diplomatic relations between humans and demons" and the "war between humans and demons"?

“I always feel that a piece of history is missing…”

Mirai frowned, his amber eyes revealing a complex emotion as he tried hard to process the information he had received in his mind.

"Could it be that the administrator who manages this place forgot to update it? It's just like those eunuch comics and novels that stopped being updated 200 years ago!"

Ziyin raised a finger and expressed her idea in the most modern way.

"That's possible..."

After thinking about it, the future nodded.

Perhaps the administrator of this area encountered some accident and stopped managing this place, which led to the current situation.

But...

Looking at the portrait frame in the future, there seemed to be traces of being wiped, and the accumulated dust was very light, indicating that someone had been here for a short time.

(If anyone has been here, why...)

Wei Li stood up again, raised the candle in his hand, and began to look around carefully, as if looking for something.

"what!"

Suddenly, she made a sound of surprise and her pupils contracted violently.

"What's wrong?!"

Ziyin was frightened, her shoulders hunched in fear, and her whole body was shaking.

"there..."

"Where, where?! Don't scare me...ah!"

Ziyin looked in the direction of the future, and soon...she also discovered something that surprised her.

Further inside the room, on the wall they thought was empty, there was a piece of white paper.

Completely different from other giant paintings, it was just a simple piece of white paper, about the same color as the wall, which caused them to miss it just now.

"Is the one drawn on this piece of paper the 'current demon king'?"

Mirai and Ziyin became nervous again and took a step forward.

Holding warm candlelight, they slowly approached the simple white paper, mustering the courage to observe the contents of the painting...

"Egg"

In the picture, there is a giant and broken bird egg, which seems to be a hotbed of evil, and countless turbid, thick black liquids are flowing out.

And a white-clad girl, like a newborn bird, stood in the inky black liquid, her red eyes looking at this side quietly.

"This is..."

When they saw the girl in the portrait, they gasped at the same time and showed expressions of disbelief.

Because the girls in the painting knew...

yes..

"zero"

The innocent-looking succubus girl who lives in the senior's house.

"No, it's impossible. Is she the current Demon King? This is too strange. How is it possible..."

I dare not imagine my own eyes in the future, and my brain is in complete chaos.

During her conversation with Yu Yi, she learned about Ling's experience from the side. She knew that he had been locked up in the church before, his health was very poor, and he almost could not be saved.

Could such a child actually be the devil?

There's no way around it, this is so weird...

"If she was a demon king from the beginning, then what was her purpose in approaching you..."

Suddenly, a bad guess came to Weilai's mind, and he quickly grabbed Ziyin's hand and ran back with her.

"W-Wait, where are we going..."

Ziyin hadn't reacted yet. Because her knees were weak, she couldn't run and it was difficult for her to keep up with the pace of the future.

"There's no time. I have to tell my senior."

Future was extremely anxious and wanted to tell this information to his seniors no matter what.

Living with the Demon King for 30 days, if the other party comes prepared, then the senior may be in danger.

Maybe, this demon king... knew the identity of the senior from the very beginning.

All of this was her acting. She pretended to be a weak student, sneaked up on her seniors, and carried out her own conspiracy.

In short, I must tell my seniors!

"clatter"

The crisp sound of high heels, like a clock sentencing someone to death, stopped the future.

There are other people...standing in the path that must be taken.

That's a demon...

A demon with jet-black wings.

I've seen her in the future. When I was investigating photo album files with my senior, she suddenly appeared and stopped the investigation, and said a lot of strange things.

"The Demon King's personal bodyguard... Miss Maria..."

Staring at the red eyes in the darkness, Wei Li trembled as he said the other person's name, and his heart instantly sank.

This time, it's bad.

Mochi had fallen to the ground, dead or alive, and no one could protect them.

"call out"

The black feathers fell at a speed that even the naked eye could not catch.

The candle in the future's hand went out, the vision in front of him became blurred, and his consciousness disappeared along with the extinguished flame, turning into a wisp of white smoke.
