“My existence will now be erased from this world. But before I leave, I will transfer to you all my knowledge, my memories and my combat experience. Don't worry, my conscience won't get the better of you, you will be free to make your own choices. It will be up to you to choose which direction to take when you know the whole truth about this world through my knowledge. ''

After receiving the experience of the Demon King, I became aware of several aspects of this world that I did not know. I had access to the frustration of the demons, I could feel their emotions.

''Don't worry Magma, it's ancient history. Now what I need is for you to lend me your strength. Together we will conquer the world. ''

“Yes, your Majesty. ''

I retained my own consciousness and my own will and felt no animosity towards humans. However, I had to change things, the world could no longer continue to function like this.

So I gave myself a new goal, to conquer the world. My goal was no different from the ambition of the Demon King and his army, but unlike them, I was going to use a different method.

While I was lost in thought, I heard a voice calling to me from afar. I turned around and saw Leonard running closer to me.

She was injured and her torn clothes revealed her thighs and the tops of her breasts.

“Your Majesty! Everything is fine ? ''

She seemed worried about me.

''Yes, it's okay. ''

''I am reassured...''

She collapsed to the ground. She must have been too exhausted to stand on her feet. She must have gone through a huge ordeal trying to survive in the middle of my fight with Magma. I did a good job of reducing damage by containing my mana.

I put my hand on her and used a healing spell. His wounds were immediately healed. It always amazed me, I managed to do all of this without making any effort.

“This is the second time you have used your magic to heal me, I am extremely grateful to you. ''

''I'm sorry Leonard, I shouldn't have called you a traitor. In the end, you were right. ''

Magma, feeling a little embarrassed, apologized to Leonard. Despite his status as lieutenant, he did not hesitate to bow to her.

“You don’t have to apologize, Master Magma. Among us, you are the one who most awaited the reincarnation of our king. Additionally, if you did this, it's because you have difficulty distinguishing one mana flow from another. ''

Leonardo, feeling embarrassed, decided not to dwell too long on the subject.

''This is not enough to erase my mistake. I should have recognized our king at first glance. ''

“It’s okay, let go of this story, there’s no point thinking about it anymore. ''I said in a short tone.

I had to intervene otherwise he would have passed the buck and it would be endless. Plus, I couldn't wait to get back to the king's mansion... Uh, my mansion.

''It's time for me to go home. '' I said, rising high into the sky.

“We will escort you. ''

Magma took Leonard in her arms and the two of them joined me and we took the direction leading to the mansion.

After a few seconds of flight, I set foot on the ground of my mansion for the first time. I looked up and saw four other demons in front of a large gate.

They were Nebulime, Luccie, Ragnar and...

I didn't recognize the last demon, I had never met her back when I was still fighting demons. No matter how much I searched through the demon king's memory, I didn't have any information about her.

“Welcome back to us, Your Majesty! ''

Luccie took a step forward and spoke. She and the three other demons then bowed down to me.

Personally, I was starting to enjoy this feeling. The one where I was respected by those around me.

Suddenly, the demoness whose existence was unknown to me burst into tears and ran closer to me. Once within reach, she took me in her arms.

''I finally meet you... Dad! ''

Dad ? How is this possible? The demon king has a daughter? But then, why does he have no memory of her? I'm lost there.

While I was thinking, Luccie came closer to me and grabbed the demoness with one arm.

“Princess, I don’t think your attitude is appropriate for your title. Pull yourself together and present yourself properly to the king. ''

“I’m sorry Luccie. ''

She wiped away her tears, then turned to me. She took a straight posture and presented herself elegantly.

“Please excuse my attitude earlier, my name is Gloria and I am your daughter. ''

Gloria? Daughter of the demon king... I never imagined becoming a father one day.

This young demon looked at me with shining eyes.

Strangely, I felt affection for her. It must be due to the emotions of the Demon King that I inherited. I put my hand on his head and stroked him.

''Nice to meet you. ''

His face immediately filled with a beautiful smile.

“You look confused your majesty, let me explain. '' Said Luccie.

''I'm listening to you. ''

Luccie explained to me the origin of Gloria.

Apparently, before the Demon King died, he used his last source of energy to release part of his consciousness.

The demons who remained alive after his fall recovered him and took care of him. I understood now why I had no memory of her.

“You know everything, your Majesty. ''

“Thank you very much Luccie. ''

Luccie is one of the demon king's lieutenants. I haven't had the opportunity to face him in the past and I'm very happy about it. Otherwise, I would never have survived.

At two meters tall, she was imposing.

Like all self-respecting demons, she had horns but these, unlike Magma and Leonard's, were red in color which demonstrated her omnipotence.

You could tell the power of a demon by the color of its horns. A lower demon of rank D and C is distinguished by brown-colored horns.

Leonard's black horns meant that she is level B. Magma is a rank A demon given the purple color of her horns. S-rank demons, for their part, have red horns like Luccie's.

This classification should not have meant anything to demons, but to humans, it was a way of listing them according to their power.

For my part, I did not have a horn, this must have been due to the fact that I had a human body. But when I think about it, the demon king was also without it. This must have been a criterion that differentiated him from other demons.

“Magma. I see you have regained your true form. '' Ragnar said.

'' Yes. Our king has donated some of his mana to me. This allowed me to regenerate and regain my full power. ''

“Oh luck! ''

Ragnar is an S-rank demon based on the color of his horns. He possesses extraordinary strength and masters several martial arts to perfection.

He can handle all kinds of weapons except the holy sword intended for heroes.

“Your Majesty, we have made sure to preserve the place in your absence. Now that you are back, we are ready to carry out your every order. ''

Nebulime is a rank A demon. He masters magic barriers to perfection. It was probably him who erected the magic barrier around my mansion.

This is the most painful demon I have had to face. Despite possessing a large offensive arsenal, his fighting style is more defensive.

I now had in front of me the most powerful demons in the demon king's army. They single-handedly killed many of my friends. But strangely, I didn't feel any hatred towards them.

''Sorry if we are not complete. After your death, Raya, Mirage and Zora, three of your lieutenants were killed. The current situation is all the more critical. The rest of our meager survivors all scattered and we lost all contact with them. Me, Nebulime Ragnar and Magma, your last lieutenants still alive, fled and took refuge here with a hundred other soldiers. I am sorry your majesty, we were not up to the task. '' Said Luccie, shedding a few tears.

She then bowed and the others did the same. Strangely, this saddened me.

“It’s not your fault, it’s mine. I shouldn't have died. I failed and left you to handle a very heavy burden. ''

“Your Majesty…”

“But don’t worry, everyone will go back to the way they were before. For this, I need the strength of all of you. So, use the frustration you feel now as a source of motivation and give your best. ''

'' Yes ! '' They said, prostrating themselves.

'' GOOD. For now I'm going to rest in my quarters. We'll talk about it once I wake up. ''

“Everything will be done as you wish, your Majesty. '' Luccie replied.

The world was going to change soon and I was going to be the cause of it.
