After defeating the previous ruler. Rex was throughly upset that a sidekick actually managed to make his nose bleed.
"Fool." Rex spoke softly.
The three women that were with the previous ruler came to his side. They were worried about his safety.
"I take it that the three of you are in fact the three leaders of the demons living here?" Rex angrily asked.
"Yes." The trio answered fearfully.
"Find three promising candidates, each of you. Two will be allowed to become my maids while the winner will be the ruler here." Rex answered.
"Of course."
Before they left, "Also, if any are virgins. I want them first."
The trio bowed and hurried out.
Rex felt that this job was easier. Now that the first subquest was done, he wanted to make his name known.
"I will find his lackeys."
With that in mind, Rex mindlessly began to find anyone still associated with the previous ruler. To his amazement no one dared to acknowledge the previous ruler.
"Is it because of the rat piss and poop or something different?" Rex wondered.
Then he realized he was still letting out his Demon King Aura. He knew that he truly screwed up this subquest.
What could he do? Continue showing off his Demon King Aura.
This was his right as the Demon King of the Demon Realm. Although the ruler here as a similar feel, the quality was the biggest difference.
When he finally reached the end of a hallway, he found that there were no rooms at all in this closed off hallway.
So he began his trek back.
The demons had already spreading news of the Demon King from the Demon Realm. This was one of the best things for Rex. It was also the worst things because demons also spread the news in the town.
Thankfully, Violet and Demon Violet had already spoken to the town about the news.
The town was not afraid of Rex. They would be if the town had not known.
By the time Rex returned to the throne. He sat down and felt horrid because he could not have guessed that by releasing the Demon King Aura, he would not have been challenged.
A small demon child entered the throne room.
"Kings are always mean and unjust. One day, I will overthrow you." The child spouted.
"PLEASE SPARE MY CHILD!" A demon woman came running in and kowtowing.
Rex was stunned at the woman. She seemed to be pregnant with another child but the one in front seemed to be just born.
"Woman, how old is the child?" Rex asked.
"A year in three days." The woman replied fearfully.
"Child, come forth." Rex said.
The child not fearing death came forward.
"Child, you have great courage and that is respectable. Make sure that you remember, there will always be someone greater than you. Just being courageous does not mean anything if you do not have the strength or Willpower to become stronger.
So child, tell me how do you plan on overthrowing me?"
The child was dumbfounded at the speech. He knew that the previous ruler was unjust and that the new king should have killed him on the spot.
"Truthfully, I have not set my mind up for which direction I want to cultivate in." The child responded.
"First off, choose a weapon that will forever fit your way of combat. Master it to the fullest, then once you are ready to decide on your cultivation path choose one that fits the way you want to fight.
No matter if you are weak or strong, keep those ideals. You will always find ways to counter your attacks but finding your opponent's counter will be tough.
Second, do not just try to climb the Realms. Take your time master your strengths and weaknesses in the current Realm. Increase your strength and Qi to the maximum before you ascend.
This is to not only build your foundation but to fortify you as a person. As a demon, you will be arrogant and looked down upon and look down upon humans.
If you show that demons who put in their effort arrogant as strong, if not stronger than humans, we can build a better civilization.
As for kings and queens being unjust. You can find it yourself to make those decisions in the future."
The child smiled from ear to ear. He knew that the Demon King had just given him the advice he needed to grow stronger.
"If you think you are ready to try to practice your cultivation, I happen to be friendly with the Top Three Sect Leaders, Demon, Maximum, and Life-giver. They will help you grow if you want them to." Rex said.
The child happily agreed.
"As for now, I need you to wait until I found my women who can help you there easily. Go pack your things, and the woman known as Demon Violet will let you know when the time is set."
The child left and this would cause a massive shift in the difference between humans and demons. That is because Rex would later explain how he taught the child to grow in his cultivation.
