Chapter 12: Reversal in Aftermath
update icon Updated at 2025/7/14 13:10:12

Saro Uth treated Green as a friend from the bottom of his heart. Even if it weren't for this, just because this is Saro Uth's territory as the Demon Lord, he would not let Gothic easily kill anyone.

"It's time for you to understand who is the true master here!"

The battle between the two sides quickly erupted again.

Meanwhile, Green approached Elsa, but he completely didn't understand what Saro Uth's intentions were. Moreover, the previous question he asked Green was inexplicable.

If he could break free from the restrictions of the Demon World, Green would have gone a long time ago.

He wouldn't waste his time restricting his own strength to let others fight. Stability was the most important thing.

However, Elsa's behavior not only didn't answer Green's confusion, but made Green even more puzzled.

"Elsa, what does your grandfather really want?"

"......Uh!"

Elsa was like a startled rabbit. Even though Green was just asking a simple question, her face turned red as if she was embarrassed, and she didn't answer Green's question for a long time.

Not only that, Green also noticed that Elsa's actions were somewhat awkward, as if she was hesitating about something.

Just then, something unexpected happened to Green.

A fresh scent of a young girl suddenly brushed past his nose, and without any mental preparation, Elsa suddenly climbed onto him, pinning him down.

"Elsa...?"

Green's expression gradually became dazed.

Wasn't the development of things a bit wrong???

Green soon noticed that Elsa's face was getting redder and redder, almost to the point of bleeding—although it was a bit exaggerated, it was indeed close to that.

And then, instead of immediately stopping this behavior, Elsa brought her red face closer to Green's, so close that both of them could feel each other's breath on their faces.

"..."

Green didn't know what to say anymore.

Saro Uth was bitterly struggling for his life, yet Green was fooling around with his granddaughter. Green felt that it wasn't right to do this and felt a sense of guilt.

However, what Elsa said next made Green even more baffled.

"Green... Do you like me?"

"Why are you asking such an irrelevant question at a time like this???"

Green couldn't help but shout out loud, wanting to climb out from under Elsa. However, Elsa forcefully pressed him down—it seemed that the current Green was even weaker than Elsa.

"No, you must answer my question first!..."

"What kind of joke is this, Elsa! Now is not the time to do this!!!"

"Boom——"

Just then, a loud noise came from not far away. Upon closer look, it turned out that Saro Uth had been hit into the ground, but soon he flew out of the ground. At the same time, he looked towards Green, who was being pressed down by Elsa not far away, with a trusting expression, and even raised his thumb.

That appearance was like saying:

Hurry up and get together with my granddaughter!

Afterwards, Saro Uth kicked Gothic, who had approached, and soon the sound of the two sides' fists and feet colliding drifted away.

"... Am I already dead and dreaming?"

Green looked at Elsa sitting on top of him and murmured absent-mindedly. His eyes became dull, and finally closed.

He wondered if he missed Aloof and them so much after being killed that he had such a strange dream, but why was Elsa the object of his dream?

Hmm??

Wait a minute, this sensation...

Green suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that his hand was resting on Elsa's chest, and she had grabbed his hand and placed it there. And this sensation immediately made Green realize that he was definitely not dreaming.

The sensation in dreams could never be so real!

"Elsa, what do you want to do... Wait, could it be that you have a way for me to break free from the restrictions of the Demon World?"

Green paused halfway through his words and came up with the only explanation for the current irrational situation, although he still felt that there was no connection between the two.

However, Elsa blushed and nodded.

Green cleared his throat and asked, trying to suppress the dryness in his mouth, "What is it?"

"It's... the succubus' unique skill. It can turn a male partner who has been mated with into a low-level succubus who only knows how to mate and will obey absolutely. Although it is considered a lower-level race, it is still a part of the demon race. So I was thinking, maybe it can help you overcome the limitations that the demon world has on non-demon creatures... like this..."

As Elsa explained, she became so nervous that her palms were sweaty and her whole body stiffened.

At the same time, because of Green's hand placement, Elsa became even more nervous. Her nervousness prevented her from moving away from Green's hand, which in turn caused her body to become tense and rigid.

This benign cycle continued until now, and she still couldn't remove Green's hand.

However, Elsa had already prepared herself mentally for what was about to happen.

But it seemed like it had no effect.

"Elsa, you..."

"Green..."

Seeing a slight shock in Green's expression, Elsa wondered if her bold decision had moved him, making him even shyer.

However, the next words from Green completely obliterated this emotional state.

"I mean, you're clearly a succubus, but when we first met, you were so reserved. But now, when it comes to getting down to business, you act like an inexperienced old O woman~!"

"Huh?"

Elsa doubted if she had misheard, but after looking carefully at Green's expression, she realized that he was indeed mocking her. She was stupefied for a moment and blinked.

Suddenly, Elsa lost her balance and snapped back to reality, only to realize that she was already pinned down by Green.

With a flushed face, Green shamelessly said, "Don't worry, I'll be more gentle..."

"Um..."

...

With a heavy blow, Saloth Uth fell to the ground with a bruised and swollen face. His body had multiple fractures. Once glorious, he now looked so miserable because of a human.

Gothnai furrowed his brow, his face cold and devoid of mercy, as he looked down at Saloth Uth.

"In the past, you couldn't even take a single hit from me. Now, you managed to delay me for such a long time. It seems that in all these years, you haven't accomplished nothing, weak Demon Lord - Saloth Uth."

"Hehe."

Saloth Uth managed to prop himself up, chuckling coldly.

"Exaggerating. I was able to hold you for so long thanks to Green's attack earlier. But speaking of which, you're as arrogant as ever. You look like a fat pig, but you still fight in such a way. If you're not confident in your appearance, then don't keep stuffing your face and drinking all the time."

"..."

Gothnai's eyes flickered with a dangerous light, shining brightly in jade green.

"Enough with the nonsense. You should know my style. If it weren't for you being one of the Demon Lords, you would've been dead long ago. What's the point of delaying me for a little bit of time? In the end, it's still the same, right? That human who disturbed my meal from the moment he knocked over my plate is already dead."

As he finished speaking, Gothnai's voice turned incredibly cold, sending chills down one's spine.

This tangible killing intent would make an ordinary person faint on the spot.

It was hard for Saloth Uth to imagine just how obsessed Gothnai was with food to hate Green so much because of something that was insignificant to an ordinary person.

"From now on, just stay here and watch. Let's see what price you, the defiant Demon Lord Gothnai, will pay."

With that, Gothnai took a step past Saloth Uth.

However, before he could take a few more steps, an immense aura appeared out of nowhere, causing both Demon Lords to tremble.

"What happened?!" ×2

The two demon kings exchanged a glance and could see the shock in each other's eyes.

Even Saroth Uth was taken aback. This sudden aura was definitely not from Green, but from another presence. However, besides Green, Saroth Uth couldn't imagine who else could emit such a vast and grand aura.

Not only that, Saroth Uth also faintly smelled a familiar scent from this aura.

At the same time, the two demon kings locked eyes again.

"In the Demon Realm, only demon kings can possess this kind of aura...!"

"Could it be that pile of bones?"

Gothne recalled another demon king besides the two of them: the Skeleton Demon King, Clitz. When he heard Gothne's speculation, Saroth Uth suddenly remembered something and his expression changed dramatically.

"Could that guy Clitz have already absorbed all the energy of the Heart of the Universe?!"

"The Heart of the Universe?"

Only now did Gothne remember that he was asked by his relatives if he wanted to find the Heart of the Universe. He remembered that he was eating at the time and didn't pay attention. Now, he suddenly recalled what the Heart of the Universe was.

So, Gothne decisively shook his head.

"That thing doesn't have such great power. Do not overestimate the Heart of the Universe."

"..."

Saroth Uth looked at Gothne in shock. From Gothne's appearance, it seemed that he didn't believe the Heart of the Universe could bring such immense power. However, feeling the sudden aura again, Saroth Uth suddenly realized.

"That's right, such great power is impossible even for the Heart of the Universe."

Suddenly, a large dark red beam of light rose from the ground in the distance and shot straight into the sky.

Under the impact of this thick energy column, the already blood-red sky in the Demon Realm formed a huge energy vortex. At the intersection of the energy column and the sky, dense red lightning interwove and flickered. Upon closer inspection, faint black lightning could be seen mixed within.

Suddenly, a massive wave of energy surged from the direction of the energy column and instantly reached Saroth Uth's location.

"Ugh! What...!"

The mighty wave of energy swept over, and Saroth Uth and Gothne were horrified to find that, despite their strength, they could barely stabilize their bodies. It was unusually difficult.

"What in the world is happening...?!"

Not only Saroth Uth, but demons from all over the Demon Realm also witnessed this strange scene.

Especially the oppressive aura coming from the center of the energy made them feel a sense of insignificance from the depths of their hearts. They knelt on the ground one by one, only daring to cautiously observe the changes in the anomaly.

As time passed, the energy vortex in the sky grew smaller, then larger again, and the dark red energy column connecting the sky and earth also followed the same pattern, growing thicker and then thinner.

Suddenly, the size of the energy column expanded several times and rapidly contracted at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, it vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared before, leaving everything calm and undisturbed.

However, after this anomaly disappeared, Saroth Uth saw a scene in the sky that shocked him.

In the far-off sky, black and red lightning intertwined around a teenager. The teenager bore a resemblance to a human, except for the black horns growing on both sides of his forehead. His expression was filled with the disdain of a superior. Through the slight upward curl of his mouth, one could even see his two evil teeth glinting with a cold light.

But no matter how you looked at it, this teenager's appearance was strikingly similar to that person –

"He is... Green?"

Just then, a black tail with a heart-shaped tip suddenly emerged from behind the teenager.
