Chapter 16 A Proper Villian
update icon Updated at 2025/7/18 10:10:12

In the city of the demon clan, or rather, among the demon clan in the entire demon realm, the aftermath of the previous battle still lingered, causing unease among the majority of demons. Only the servants of the demon kings were slightly better off, but not by much.

When Green entered the view of the demon masses for the first time, he left a deep impression on them.

Green took the lead, with Saroth Uth and Gothner flanking him on either side. As soon as Green entered the city, he immediately walked confidently, showing no recognition to anyone.

Because they were in Saroth Uth's territory, most demons here could recognize Saroth Uth and Elsa. Although they did not know Gothner, they could still sense the aura of a demon king from him, which naturally suppressed them.

On the contrary, Green, maintaining his human form, aroused strong curiosity among the demon masses.

However, no one dared to approach and ask questions. They obediently made way, watching the backs of the few individuals from behind.

The group went directly to the residence of the demon city lord.

When the lord of the city learned of Saroth Uth's arrival, he was very surprised. After all, demon kings rarely left their own territories, especially to visit ordinary demon cities.

Naturally, the city lord was curious about Saroth Uth's purpose.

"May I ask, is there something the Demon Lord needs by coming here?"

"It's nothing major, just something that needs to be announced to the public."

"What is it?"

Saroth Uth did not speak, but took a step back and revealed Green's presence.

The demon city lord had noticed Green earlier. Now, seeing Saroth Uth's actions, he looked at Green with even more confusion. He couldn't feel any demonic aura from Green, not even from his appearance.

Suddenly, Green smiled mysteriously, and in an instant, his whole demeanor changed. Horns of black color appeared on his forehead without any warning, and at the same time, the room was instantly filled with the pressure of a demon king.

In an instant, the city lord felt the air become extremely heavy. The demon king's pressure emanating from Green made it almost impossible for him to breathe properly.

Fortunately, Green only maintained this state for a few seconds before returning to normal. Although he didn't say a word throughout the whole process, the demon city lord understood everything.

A powerful new demon king had emerged.

After the demon city lord reported this event to everyone, the demon masses were shocked beyond belief.

The birth of a demon king had not happened for many years, and this demon king was far stronger than Saroth Uth, even surpassing Gothner.

The demons instantly understood where that powerful aura had come from, and their confusion was resolved.

Afterward, Green and the others left through a teleportation point, but Green's appearance and powerful aura forever remained in their hearts.

The name of Green, the Demon King, was also recorded in the history of demon kings.

Meanwhile, Clitz remained alone with the Heart of the Universe.

He was fully immersed in the wonderful sensation of the energy from the Heart of the Universe. However, as time passed, he soon discovered that the energy of the Heart of the Universe could no longer completely integrate with his bones.

Although it could still be absorbed, it flowed out of his body in the next second, unable to be locked in his body, let alone utilized.

This change made Clitz panic, but after feeling the power inside his body, he regained his confidence.

"Hehehehe!! The Heart of the Universe is indeed powerful. It has doubled my strength in such a short time! Now that I have such powerful power, it will be a piece of cake to deal with Saro Uth! After I eliminate Saro Uth and that human, I will have plenty of time to continue my research, hahaha!!"

After realizing this, Clitz laughed heartily. As for the powerful aura he felt before, he had long since discarded it from his mind and wasn't interested in what had happened.

Besides, that aura had already disappeared. He just wanted to quickly deal with Saro Uth, expand his influence, and eventually control the entire demon realm. He would become the strongest among the "Three Demon Kings."

Of course, these were just his fantasies.

At this moment, Clitz had no idea that despair was slowly approaching him.

In a city within Clitz's territory, Saro Uth and the others arrived smoothly through the teleportation points between cities.

Generally, demon kings rarely venture into each other's territories. But even if they did, the ordinary demons wouldn't dare to stop them or say anything. After all, no matter which demon king it was, they were an unopposable presence.

However, the demon king's entourage was different from ordinary demons.

They had the confidence to challenge the demon king.

Therefore, when they saw Saro Uth appear in their territory, the entourage members scattered throughout the city quickly reported the information to their headquarters. Among Clitz's entourage, the Minotaur and Pigman were the two strongest races.

Once they received the news, the Minotaur leader immediately felt a great desire for battle.

"Now that Lord Clitz has obtained the Heart of the Universe, Saro Uth is nothing more than someone who came here to die. There's nothing to fear!"

"But besides Saro Uth, there is also his granddaughter and two unfamiliar people."

"Unfamiliar people?"

"Yes."

After hearing the detailed description from the intelligence personnel, the Minotaur leader immediately identified the identity of one of them.

"It seems that the human from before is also here. This might make it a bit disadvantageous for Lord Clitz, but I believe as long as Lord Clitz can absorb the energy of the Heart of the Universe, he can easily defeat them!"

However, they didn't know who the other white-haired man described by the intelligence personnel was.

Gothner had rarely shown himself in public, and even if someone had seen him, they would most likely have already died of old age, so it was normal that no one could recognize him.

But from now on, Gothner's true identity would soon be known to the public.

Saro Uth had some impression of the location of Clitz's headquarters, so he directly led Green and the others to the front of Clitz's headquarters.

This place was already in the outskirts of the city. A huge castle was surrounded by thick and high walls in the shape of a polygon, with only one gate facing the city for entry and exit.

Usually, the only ones who come in and out here are members of the Clitz family, but because there are a large number of Clitz family members, there is still a significant flow of people in the castle.

At the same time, due to Clitz's orders, the number of guards at the castle gate has multiplied several times, and there are also many more demon soldiers on the castle walls than before.

It is almost impossible to infiltrate under such circumstances.

However, Green had no intention of sneaking in from the beginning. As the Demon King, he considered it his own territory and could come and go as he pleased, without others interfering.

And that's exactly what Green did.

Led by Green, Saro Uth and Gothner guarded his sides, while Elsa walked alongside Green.

As they approached the entrance of the wall, countless eyes focused on them, but Green's steps showed no sign of stopping. He even completely ignored the gaze of the Clitz family members and walked straight towards the inside of the wall.

Green, Gothner, and Elsa might not know, but Saro Uth certainly did.

Therefore, a group of strong minotaur demons quickly arrived and surrounded them when Green and his group were about to step into the wall.

Seeing this situation, some non-combatant races quickly distanced themselves from the surroundings.

The lead minotaur demon took a step forward and presented his identification, then said coldly:

"Lord Saro Uth, beyond this point is Clitz's territory. I kindly ask you not to proceed without permission, otherwise..."

Hearing this obviously threatening statement, Saro Uth remained completely calm.

In the past, he might have slapped him across the face.

After all, Saro Uth was one of the Three Great Demon Kings, and even though the minotaur demons in front of him were not his family members, they were not ordinary demons that could act so insolently.

But now, he wouldn't do that.

The reason was simple.

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound, and the minotaur demon who had just spoken disappeared in an instant. The other minotaur demons became nervous at this eerie phenomenon.

Only when they looked around did they realize that the minotaur demon had somehow become deeply embedded in the wall.

By now, Green had transformed into his Demon King form and his demeanor became incredibly arrogant in the face of these insignificant demons.

"Clitz's territory is my territory. My territory is still my territory. Do any of you have a problem with that? Or... do you want to resist me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the unique aura of the Demon King instantly erupted.

The entire city was enveloped by this imposing aura, especially the demons who were in close contact with Green. Their brains seemed to malfunction, and they couldn't even speak a word.

The Demon King is naturally suppressing to ordinary demons, let alone Green, who is such a powerful Demon King.

Green's momentum only slightly revealed itself, but the previously arrogant minotaur demons lost their voices. One of them even had weak legs and sat on the ground.

The other minotaur demons were not doing much better either. After feeling the majesty emitted by Green as the Demon King, their bodies involuntarily knelt on the ground. They couldn't even muster the courage to beg for mercy, let alone feel any anger.

Seeing this, Green had a satisfied smile on his face.

"This is how it should be... Hahaha! After all, I'm not a tyrant. It's only natural for you to be obedient. I don't need to explain what the consequences will be if you resist the Demon Lord, do I? You should be very clear about what price you will pay!"

Taken alone, these words may not mean much, but when combined with Green's rich demeanor and the aura emanating from him, it immediately gave people the illusion that even a single wrong word could lead to their death.

Even Saro Uth and Gothner couldn't help but tremble.

After all, Green's tone and demeanor were textbook examples of a villain, cold-blooded and merciless.

At the same time, Clitz, hidden deep within the castle, finally sensed something unusual.
