After successively defeating powerful contenders from six royal families, even if Lance had no such intentions, other strong members of the Demon Race from the abyss would subconsciously gather around him, probing Lance to see if he aspired to become the Demon Emperor.
If they sensed this ambition, they would observe Lance for a while to ascertain his qualifications for the throne. Only then might they choose to serve him, helping Lance unite the abyss, and in doing so, rise as new nobility within it.
Lance probably hadn't considered this, or perhaps he had but didn't take it to heart. After all, he had emphasized two or three times that his return was to take his dragon cub back to the Human World, not to seek dominion over the abyss.
Fortunately, for the moment, he hadn't yet defeated Serestia of The Blood Clan or Abaluo the Night Elf. We hope that these two can defeat Lance; if they cannot, it might truly indicate Lance's eligibility for contesting the throne of Demon Emperor.
