Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

When Xia Mi appeared again, she was in a forest. There were traces of a great battle in the forest. Basically, only the tree roots that were not burned by the fire were left. The ground was charred and the ashes had turned into mud.

Not far outside the woods is the Demon King's Castle.

The Demon King's Castle is now in ruins, with broken tiles and ruins all around.

Along with the Demon King, various monsters were also destroyed.

Now, after the Demon King was completely destroyed, the Demon King's Castle has quickly become a tourist attraction.

Xia Mi approached the Demon King's Castle and met people in different costumes along the way.

"Popcorn!"

"Does anyone need a tour guide?"

"Speaking of which, that day when the hero fought the demon king..."

Xia Mi activated her passive skill [Devil's Detection], and through conscious detection, she was able to see the identities of the people around her.

[Low-level storyteller]

[Snack vendors]

[A deceptive tour guide who has only been here for three days]

But to get more specific information, he needs to contact these people.

"The Demon King's Castle really has no deterrent power at all."

Along the way, there were people taking photos and recording videos with recording crystals. Xia Mi bought the latest map from a vendor and muttered to herself.

The Demon King's Castle is located 3,000 kilometers east of the Kingdom of Fez.

The tourists who come here now all come through the portals of various kingdoms.

Only after buying the ticket was Xia Mi allowed to enter the Demon King's Castle.

Soon after entering, there was a loud noise.

"Look, elves!"

Xia Mi looked towards the direction of the voice and found a beautiful elf girl with blonde hair and pointed ears.

Although the elves and humans are on good terms, the number of elves is small and their status is noble, so they can only be seen in big cities like the royal capital.

Being able to see elves here is a rare thing.

Xia Mi took a look. It was indeed beautiful.

The elf girl seemed to be in her twenties, about 1.6 meters tall, with long curly light golden hair, which was unique to the elves, two pointed ears, a flawless face, and fair skin. She wore an elf skirt, which was unique to the elves, and had slender legs and a thin figure.

Double A grade.

Xia Mi immediately lost interest and left quickly.

Luleya Yuze Elgar looked at the Demon King's Castle excitedly and ran in with small steps.

This must be the Demon King's Castle.

Just imagining the battle between the Demon King and the hero here is exciting enough!

The elves can also give birth to heroes, but that has nothing to do with her anymore.

In yesterday's elf spiritual power test, she was completely sentenced to death because the spiritual stone measured her spiritual energy at the third level, and she was severed from the path of a warrior.

In the future, she can only be a mediocre and stunningly beautiful elf, marrying a prince from a royal family of a major human kingdom, becoming the queen of a country, and living a life of luxury, debauchery, and drunkenness.

Thinking of this, Lu Leya couldn't help sobbing.

Although this is not bad, she wants to prove her strength, become a brave hero, and defeat the Demon King, you bastard!

Therefore, as soon as Fata announced that the Demon King's Crown Prince had returned to the world, she escaped from the Elf Forest and came to the ruined Demon King's Castle.

She didn't come here casually.

It has been a short time since the old demon king was eliminated. Although there are no monsters in the Demon King's Castle anymore, there must be some legacy left by the old demon king in some invisible places inside.

Goblins all have special inheritance books to pass down goblin craftsmanship. She absolutely does not believe that there is no inheritance between successive demon kings.

Every time a demon king dies, the next demon king has to start from scratch, but in the end he can become a super demon that requires all races to join forces to fight against?

Totally unbelievable!

The Demon King must have something to pass on!

The new Demon King's Crown Prince will definitely come here to take away the inheritance.

Lu Leya read a lot of books in the Elf Library and had a lot of things in her mind.

Hey, Crown Prince of the Demon King, I just came down from the portal and am now in your lair, the Demon King's City. I'm here to catch you now. If you know what's good for you, show up quickly!

The blond elf clenched his fists and walked towards the Demon King's castle with full fighting spirit, ready to capture the insignificant Demon King alive.

Xia Mi pretended to be a tourist and followed the route, slowly walking towards the depths of the Demon King's Castle. After a turn of stairs, she arrived at the underground floor of the Demon King's Castle.

Everything he needed to collect was on the second underground level of the Demon King's Castle.

The developers may not have noticed that there is a second underground floor in the Demon King's Castle, so the map of the Demon King's Castle ends abruptly at the first underground floor.

There are much fewer people in the underground level of Demon King's Castle. Most of them come here out of curiosity, and they just walk around according to the map and leave.

Xia Mi slowly walked to the deepest part of the underground floor, where no one could reach. There was a hidden secret door on the ordinary stone brick wall.

After looking around and not seeing anyone, Xia Mi pushed open the secret door and walked in.

A winding staircase leads deep underground, and candles on the walls emit a faint glow.

Not long after Xia Mi walked in, the secret door was pushed open again, and a pair of blonde with pointed ears followed in stealthily.

Walking down the stairs to the bottom, there is an abyss with no visible bottom. In the center of the abyss, there is a meteorite platform that is flat on the top and pointed on the bottom, with thick iron chains on all four sides connecting it to the cliffs nearby.

A stone staircase extends from Xia Mi's feet to the meteorite platform.

It feels like a dungeon in Demon King's Castle.

Xia Mi stepped on the steps, which were steady, and then walked onto the platform.

There was an exquisite sacrificial table on the platform, with three things on it.

He stretched out his hand and was about to touch it when a white light emanated from the sacrificial table. The white light gathered above the table and finally took the shape of a human figure.

A demon king with double horns on his head appeared in the light, wearing a domineering robe that fluttered in the wind, and a face that looked like it had been overindulged in lust, looking up at the sky with a vicissitudes of life.

"Successor of the Demon King, I am the Demon King Luwaka. When you see this message, I have been destroyed by the brave and am no longer in this world."

"Everything I built for the demon clan was destroyed by those damn heroes."

"But the Demon King's legacy will never be cut off. The Demon King's power will guide you to find me and the three heirloom magic weapons of the Demon Clan. Take them away and create the next prosperous era of the Demon Clan!"

Xia Mi looked at the three items on the table. From left to right, they were a model of the Demon King's Castle condensed by dark light, similar to a figurine, an ordinary ring, and a book.

[Name: The Core of the Demon King's Castle]

[Introduction: The Demon King's Castle of all the Demon Kings of all generations was built with this Demon King's Castle Core.]

[Name: The Lord of the Rings]

[Introduction: A ring with extraordinary space storage capabilities]

[Name: Monster Encyclopedia]

[Introduction: A picture book that records all the monsters. If you want to build the demon king's army, you need this picture book.]

I see.

These are the three things he has to collect in the main quest.

Xia Mi put on the magic ring.

[Please upload your fingerprint and iris information in time to facilitate personal authentication. ]

It's quite humane.

Ignoring it for the time being, Xia Mi put the monster encyclopedia and the core of the Demon King's City into the magic ring.

There seemed to be something else inside the ring, but Xia Mi didn't have time to check.

After getting the things, he had to go back to the Novice Village first.

That's the safest place.

Chapter 4 Reflections from the Old Devil

Quiet.

In the white light, the virtual demon king slowly lowered his head and looked at Xia Mi.

"You're not going to say anything? Something like a thank you. Or maybe a swearing-in?"

"I thought it was a recorded video."

Only then did Xia Mi realize that the virtual demon king was talking to her.

"Of course not! This is the only bit of magic energy I have left!"

The white light of the virtual demon king surged for a moment, then calmed down.

"Are you the new Demon King successor?"

"Hmm. Is there any way to refuse to become a demon king now?"

"Of course not."

The virtual demon king looked at Xia Mi with disdain: "You were chosen as the demon king's crown prince, but you ask such a question. You don't even have the demon king's soul."
