...... Ah, it's so scary when I think about it, forget it, I'd rather not think about it.
Baymont's voice was still calm, no ups and downs at all, "A demon lord only has the chance to leave a mark once in his life, in that respect, it's the same as the 'marriage' you seek. Evelyn's face was blank, "...... No, no, no, I think it's completely different." This was the true malicious curse for any human. Cautiously, she lifted her hand and touched her shoulder, caressing it for a moment in a searching manner, as if trying to find out exactly where the mark was.Evelyn had thought of something, and her soft lips began to whiten, and her ever-focused and serious eyes wandered, as if she were going into some sort of memory. She hung her head, looking almost a little pathetic in her droll way. Baymont stared at her for a moment, as if he didn't know what "married" meant, and he didn't know what "pathetic" meant. He could only tell that Evelyn, the new queen he had summoned, was showing a subtle sense of vulnerability at the moment. This puzzled Baymont. "The name of the Demon King," Evelyn said suddenly, "I want to know the name of the Demon King." "His Majesty, the Demon King, is the only Demon who has ever awakened the bloodline of the Old Gods; his name is the name of the Old Gods, and no one may call the Gods by their first names." Baymont paused for a moment and told her, "But the projection of His Majesty's consciousness in the human world is called Irzey. Hearing this from the other party, Evelyn was stunned at first, but did not show much surprise. Based on what Baymont and Irzey had said earlier, she had also more or less guessed that ...... "...... What about Irzey?" Evelyn blinked and whispered, "I want to see him." Baymont: "The Lich King is dead." Evelyn opens her mouth and nods, "Oh, I see. So he really is dead ...... "I teleported you to the Old Realm because of this matter as well." Baymont said in a cold voice, standing next to Evelyn, his head bowed, the two strands of silver hair that fell from his hood hanging peacefully over his chest. "According to the traditions of the Old Empire, you, as queen, are also part of the Demon King's legacy and will be chosen by the Demon King's four sons as to whether they will inherit or not." Evelyn, who first knew that she was inexplicably married, and then knew that she had somehow become a young widow: ".................. ......" Evelyn feels like she's really close to being stupid. But wait... "I thought Irzey only had me as a queen," Evelyn asked with a less than pleasant expression, sensing something in Baymont's words, "Why should there be four more sons? Ah, is there another woman behind my back?" Baymont gives an "Oh" and replies, "The Demon King himself gave birth. Evelyn: "............" Evelyn: "????" "All demons in the Old Domain can reproduce unisexually, and the Demon King is no exception, so as long as he eats a favored object, he can give birth to a child that looks like the other one. When the Demon King unified the Old Empire, due to the lack of manpower, he simply delivered an heir that he was satisfied with, and the Demon King was able to unify the Old Empire with their credit," Baymont said, his tone very humble, "even though it was only a tiny portion and nowhere near the power of the King. Evelyn couldn't quite hear what Baymont was saying. All she could hear in her head was, "Male mom, male mom, male mom, male mom ....... "Pfft." Evelyn thought of something and covered her mouth to laugh, but she managed to hold it in. As far as she could remember, Irzey had always had little common sense and couldn't even take care of herself properly. An Irzey like that giving birth? To be a mother?Evelyn stifled a laugh as she continued, "I have a question, what if I am not chosen to inherit? Can you send me back?"
Baymont calmly replied, "Send you to be buried with the Demon King." Evelyn: "............ Are you kidding me? Please don't scare me." "I never joke." Baymont said in a serious voice, his black hood covering most of his face, leaving only a pale lip and paper white chin visible. He continued, "And it won't scare you." Evelyn's heart went cold. She tried to struggle a little, "So can I file for divorce?" Baymont: "What's a 'divorce' again?" "It's the dissolution of marriage, divorced two people are no longer husband and wife, and from now on they are separated and live their own lives with each other and never talk to each other ......" "Oh, I see, the betrayal contract," Baymont nodded with a look of understanding, "but there is no 'divorce' in the Old Domain, only betrayal. Will you betray the Demon King? The Queen." The vision of the other man, hidden under a black hood, loomed and moved like a viper. Evelyn was certain that if she said the wrong thing, she would definitely, absolutely, without a doubt, die here. Evelyn had to silently cover her mouth and shake her head.Next, Evelyn learned some brief information about the Old Empire from Baymont. The Old Empire is an endless land with no boundaries, stretching out in all directions, with the capital city where the Demon King resides as the center, and all kinds of demons grow in it, and when they reach a certain limit, they become the "Abyss," where the signs of creatures are extinguished, and where no demons have ever set foot, or where there is no way to return. Therefore, no one knows exactly how big the Old Realm is. At the same time, the "isolation" of the Old Realm is one-sided for all of space and time, so it is not impossible for other realms to come to the Old Realm, but it is impossible to leave the Old Realm after arriving. In addition, it is also true that demons can force people through "consciousness projection" and then take them away. Here, only strong and high-ranking demons can do this, so breeding humans and taking them for fun is something only the strong can do. "No wo
The second time Evelyn saw Baymont, she lay dying in her bed, her eyes open, staring impassively at the red moon above her head. The moon stared at her coldly, like a blood-filled eyeball. Since there was no alternation of day and night in the Old Realm, Evelyn had no idea how much time had passed, and could only roughly estimate that she had been stuck in this place for three or four days, based on her weakened physical condition. Yes, since the last time Baymont had ritually closed the ten-meter-high, unknown-ton, soundproof door on his way out. Evelyn hasn't been able to leave the compound since. Baymont learns why: "......" Baymont: "It was poorly thought out." He looks at the off-white stone door, which he can open with a gentle push, and can't help but think: ...... Are all humans such fragile creatures that they can't survive without thoughtful care? "Ah, is it my visions," Evelyn folded her hands on her flat stomach, looking as if she were lying flat on her bac
After the incident when Evelyn couldn't push the door of her room and was trapped inside, resulting in near starvation, Baymont seems to have a greater awareness of human tenderness. He arranges for Vanessa to become Evelyn's consort, lest she die of some strange and trivial matter before the succession ceremony. Vanessa is the demoness with the poisonous snake on her head, sort of like Medusa, and even though she cuts off her arm, it doesn't take long for her body, which Evelyn finds extraordinarily sexy and powerful, to be as good as new. Having company should have been a good thing; after all, Evelyn was full of doubts and curiosity about demons and the Old Realm, and there were some things she couldn't ask Baymont directly or indirectly, Evelyn could only plan to get words out of the demoness who hadn't moved an inch. However, Evelyn realizes that she doesn't understand the demon's language at all, and Vanessa doesn't know anything about the common language of humans. Ev
It wasn't long - Evelyn wasn't sure how long, but it certainly wasn't ten months, and it was terribly short - before Vanessa "gave birth" to a child. A baby. Evelyn's feelings were subtle and mixed. ...... She just became a mother? Uh, no, Vanessa had the baby, so she's the father? Evelyn stared at the "little monster" in front of her and fell into a wonderful contemplation. Although it's not good to use "little monster" to describe a newborn child, Evelyn couldn't find any other way to describe it than "little monster". ...... The "little monster" had a big head that was as long as its body, a thin, shriveled torso, limbs that were as shriveled as reptile arms and legs, and a small, bare tail ...... although it looked a bit like an extra tailbone. Vanessa ate her hair, hoping to have a child with the same light blonde hair, but it didn't work out as she had hoped. "There were only a few strands of dry hair growing sparsely on the little monster's big, even bloated head, a
There were a total of three moons in the Old Empire. When Evelyn first came here, there was only a single red moon in the sky, but now it has been replaced by a cold blue moon. Baymont once said that when the red, blue, and purple moons rise together in the sky, the inheritance ceremony should begin. As part of the inheritance, Evelyn was of course protected, or rather guarded, without the consent of Consul Baymont, she could not leave the great palace, most of the time Baymont gave her the advice that it was best to limit the scope of activities within this room. Evelyn had been able to devote her time and attention to Xavier, but when Xavier was disposed of - probably eaten by Vanessa - she was forced to leave the room. Vanessa ate him, Evelyn wasn't sure, but when Xavier was disposed of - maybe by Vanessa, Evelyn wasn't sure - she went back to her old life, studying the language of demons. With ordinary textbooks no longer sufficient for her needs, Evelyn politely asked B
At the time, Evelyn was busy dealing with a messenger sent by her family. In fact, Evelyn's identity in this world is not that of a commoner living in a frontier town, but rather the daughter of an earl's family, sent to a small frontier town far from the hustle and bustle of the imperial capital after the death of her nominal father, who was unpopular with her mother. Evelyn's mother is a woman so obsessed with power and desire that gold, not blood, runs through her veins. She disliked Evelyn because she would never listen to her and would never sleep with a noble lord - from the time Evelyn was five years old, the woman calculated what she could get in exchange for her daughter's body. As Evelyn grew older and more beautiful, the Countess, who had traveled around the imperial capital, seemed to remember that she had an older daughter, and she looked at Evelyn as if she were a fortune. At that time, almost everyone thought that Evelyn would ride in a luxurious carriage and
Sagon was Irzey's youngest son. Baymont had mentioned him once, albeit in a few words, but it had given Evelyn a general impression of the youngest son - he must have taken a detour when he met him. Evelyn had also asked Vanessa about the Demon King's sons, and when it had come to the three older brothers, Vanessa had looked normal, even respectful, and it was only when Sagon had been mentioned that Vanessa had shown a look of awe and disgust, and after only a few words she had closed her mouth and refused to talk about it any further. And now Evelyn had finally met the Sagon she had always been curious about. To be honest, the other party had a pretty, easy to love face, maybe because of his young age, he still had some baby fat on his face, and when he smiled, a small pear swirl showed on his left cheek, which seemed to make people feel close to him easily. But those turquoise eyes were as cold as a crawling viper. The huge contrast created a feeling of incompatibility
It wasn't until he had pinched Evelyn's red cheeks that Sagon was satisfied and withdrew his hand - human skin is so soft, he thought to himself. Evelyn covered her vaguely sore cheek and whispered, "Baymont will come looking for me when he realizes I'm gone." "Wow," Sagon stared at her with a grin, "Are you threatening me with that Baymont guy? Baymont doesn't care about anything, I know him too well." Evelyn continued, "But according to the tradition here, I am your father's legacy. Do you have the power to do whatever you want with me until the succession ceremony?" Sagon touches her pinched red cheek and says lightly, "Honestly, I kinda like you, Queen. And I'm not really interested in any of the other heirs." "You'll be my property by then anyway," Sagon gave her an oozing smile, "What difference does it make if I use it sooner or later?" Evelyn: "............" Seeing that Sagon seems to be determined to play with her as he pleases, Evelyn thinks about it and give
