270 Dekan laughed together with Buddha
“That’s right, you need to help me desecrate the graves of all other Demon Kings so that I can finally rest in peace.”
Dekan sneered slightly, communicating through lip-reading to Karlst.
But there was no trace of amusement in his eyes; instead, his pupils seemed filled with endless anger.
“No! That’s unacceptable!!”
Karlst’s shock at this moment was no less than the first time he confronted the former Demon King himself.
To have him personally desecrate the graves of Demon Kings would cost him countless lives!!
“Or do you plan to supervise me like an overseer while I do all the work?”
Dekan stretched out his palm and clenched it, muttering the question to himself.
He didn’t look at Karlst again.
Instead, his gaze shifted towards the altar.
It was as if he was telling Karlst this.
If Karlst chose to refuse, then next, Dekan would abandon the idea of desecrating graves and seek the support of other Demon Kings at the altar, gaining numerous buffs before unleashing all his wrath on Karlst.
Karlst was in an extremely difficult situation!
If he refused the Demon King’s request, he probably wouldn’t last more than half a day.
Only by accepting the Demon King’s fatal request,
would this Demon King possibly abandon the idea of seeking support from other Demon Kings.
Because once there’s the intention to desecrate graves, even if other Demon Kings initially give their approval, they can revoke it at any moment.
This way, Karlst would be safe!
Just as Dekan had already taken a step towards the altar,
Karlst finally made his decision, shouting,
“I accept your command!”
No matter what.
Surviving must be prioritized!
As for how to explain this to the current Demon King later, that responsibility can be entirely blamed on that Succubus Prison Guard!
After all, once all the Demon Kings’ graves are completely desecrated, there will be no way for the current Demon King to trace who exactly did it!
“Good, start the work.”
Dekan crossed his arms, looking at the demon who had seemingly been successfully educated and reformed, instructing him like he was his new slave.
Karlst nodded heavily.
He picked up the shovel he originally used for tending to the Demon Kings’ graves, walking towards a neighboring Demon King’s tombstone with quite an audacious air, just as Dekan had done before.
He began to desecrate the grave!
Dekan, watching the demon he had successfully adjusted and educated, couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.
He felt relieved.
Indeed, he was truly saintly.
He was actually able to make Karlst, a demon of the Greater Demon Race, sincerely perform good deeds and accumulate virtue.
Buddha, if he could witness this scene, would surely laugh with him.
Dekan thought.
……
In the real world, the scene became eerily quiet once again.
Despite Dekan’s appearances already showcasing a plethora of eerie situations.
It was originally thought that desecrating Demon Kings’ graves was already the limit of Dekan’s behavior.
However, Dekan’s actual actions once again informed them.
He has no boundaries.
He actually dared to think and act, luring a tomb-guarding demon into desecrating Demon Kings’ graves for him!!
“Doesn’t Dekan’s behavior… remind me of something… This isn’t right…”
Alice, watching the bizarre scene on the screen and Dekan’s oppressive stance,
felt a chill down her spine and involuntarily grabbed Mia’s hand.
She couldn’t help but start doubting whether her past dream was real.
Because after Dekan emerged from the virtual space, that feeling was surprisingly akin to her most terrifying nightmare ever.
Had Dekan not been in a female form at the moment, Alice might have really been scared.
“You’re overthinking it, Alice. How could we possibly see a demonic Dekan in the real world? Let’s go. It’s not surprising that someone as kind, innocent, and pure as you are got scared by that guy; he is indeed a bit frightening.”
Mia also tightened her grip on Alice’s hand.
Mia was actually extremely panicking herself!
She feared that if they continued watching, the charade might be exposed!
The last time Alice was scared by the demonized Dekan, it was Mia who hypnotized Alice into believing that it was all just a dream!
If the secret is revealed, aside from the trouble it might cause for her and Dekan,
the poor princess would probably be so scared that her entire personality might change.
And given Alice’s psychological resistance, if she continued watching,
even if she didn’t realize the problem, she might have nightmares again tonight for sure.
Just when Mia stood up and was about to pull Alice away,
“Are you feeling guilty?”
A crisp feminine voice came from behind.
“What?”
Mia turned around and realized that the blue-haired small journalist had silently taken the seat beside her.
Since the first time they met, Mia had always felt an aversion towards this person.
Soon, Mia’s eyes gradually turned cold.
“Just joking around, just joking around. I only hope you don’t miss out on the last exciting moments of the Shadow World since it’s almost nearing the end, isn’t it?”
Ludwig seemed to notice Mia’s unfriendly gaze and hastily smiled as he teased her.
“Mia, I’m okay, let’s stay and finish watching.”
Alice said.
Mia hesitated for two seconds and then nodded, sitting back down.
She seriously looked at Ludwig.
This seemingly innocent and clumsy journalist.
Mia couldn’t figure out what she was truly thinking, or perhaps she really was just a lovable and brainless individual.
…
After influencing an eighth-rank labor force, Dekan’s grave-visiting efficiency undoubtedly increased significantly.
Within tens of minutes, Karlst was about to successfully sweep and flatten the graves of all Demon Kings seated there.
Moreover, Dekan even required Karlst to stack the demolished Demon Kings’ tombstones neatly, following rules as if they were children’s building blocks.
Despite Karlst’s initial resistance,
after he dismantled the first Demon King’s tombstone,
he felt
as if it no longer mattered.
Since he had personally desecrated the graves of Demon Kings,
doing anything else would make little difference.
By the time he dismantled the second Demon King’s tombstone, Karlst didn’t even have many psychological burdens!
Now, he was finally about to finish this sinful task.
Karlst dismantled the last Demon King’s tombstone.
And according to Dekan’s request, he allowed the “Bandit Goblin” to sever the soul connections on the Demon King’s tombstone.
Subsequently, Karlst displayed a look of relief.
It’s over.
This vengeful Demon King should be at peace and rest now.
Let these records of sin be buried in the underworld forever.
“Excuse me… ?!”
However, when Karlst turned around to look at Dekan,
his pupils contracted again like an earthquake,
and his heart instantly turned cold!
There were four small dolls running with a Demon King’s tombstone,
and Dekan was standing atop the tombstone, laughing joyfully as if surfing,
like a person who had been long suppressed and could finally stop pretending.
The small Succubus’ aura of the Demon King was gone, and only that crazy demeanor from the beginning remained!
