Home/ The Demon King Took Off His Little Horns/ Chapter 28

One should rejoice in death.

One should be proud of his devotion.

The battle angel holding the sword is the sharpest blade in the Supreme Heaven. Mastering the most profound and obscure sacrificial magic, and delivering this body at the critical moment.

That’s——

Where the value lies.

But……

When he fell without wings on the lake of fire, when he picked up the still warm egg of the phoenix, when a Demon King reached out to teach him out of fun, when he saw the dark blue swan flag of the Demon King in the distance…..

The angel’s sunset-like pupils reflected all kinds of things on the land of the Demon Realm, as well as the people of the Eastern Region who were engulfed in the flames of war.

This is different from the world where the angel previously lived——

Completely different!

【Although the situation is difficult, I still want to say——】

【Guests who came from afar, welcome to Suberbian city, the city of flowers!】

——The city on the sea of flowers opened its arms to the angel.

Thinking of Suberbian City and its people waiting for him, Ansel’s overheated brain began to cool down. This is the disadvantage of battle angels. Compared with other angels, they are more prone to rush forward in battles. If combined with sacrificial thoughts and the magic of devotion, they will often fight the enemy to the death on the battlefield.

The prince has an orb embedded in his body, which was reinforced by Ansel’s magic. Unless he is at the level of a Demon King, he cannot remove it easily. As long as the other orb is still in his hand, the prince has no place to hide, so he doesn’t have to continue chasing him with the idea of mutual destruction.

Ansel’s bat wings fluttered, and he gave up the idea of crossing several misaligned time and space points, watching the prince escape into a certain space. He didn’t know whether his decision to give up the chase and protect himself was right or not, but since he already made the decision, there is no reason to regret it now.

Ansel sighed.

After more than three hundred years in the demon realm, the demon’s thoughts eventually had some influence on him. If he was in the Supreme Heaven, he would probably fight to death to catch the prince.

In order to go back and make a long-term plan, Ansel decided to take off. During the pursuit, he had already entered the space below the crack, but because he was afraid of what might exist below the crack, he didn’t go very deep, so he should be able to go up easily.

Rise… Rise… Rise…

It doesn’t work!

Can’t go up !

At the edge of the crack, Levi wrapped his demon cloak tightly around his thin body, like a wary skinny bat, with a somewhat complex expression.

“Saros, do you really want to go down?”

Levi couldn’t understand.

Ansel flew down on his own, that’s his own business, demons never do charity, so who is Saros showing this attitude of going down to save people? If it was up to Levi, he would never risk his own life and do such a stupid thing to show off.

“Yes, I’m going down.”

“But before that, I have one more thing to do.”

Saros said decisively, with his back to Levi, the corner of the Demon King’s cloak fluttered in the wind, and the black horns on the top of his head shone with jagged light. He is young and powerful, far-sighted and decisive. Unlike the white-haired and saintly Ansel, who looks totally different from a regular demon, he is a very typical demon, and many demons almost regard him as a god.

So……

It is enviable.

Just when a strange look flashed in Levi’s eyes, Saros moved. Sidi was shocked, and saw a trace of black light passing by her leopard eyes which has excellent dynamic vision. Before she had time to react——

Saros pierced the stomach of Demon King Levi!

“!!!”

All the generals present were stunned, only Aini, the hell snake, looked solemn. His position can vaguely block Sidi’s actions, and no one can understand His Majesty’s intentions better than the generals of Luster City.

“You…you…” Levi stared at the blood dripping from his stomach. With a “grunt” in his throat, he raised his head in disbelief to look at Saros’s calm and unwavering dark blue vertical pupils.

“Well, Saros! In Ansel’s absence, are you going to break the alliance of the Three Demon Kings, and attack your allies?!”

His tone was aggressive, but Saros was still calm.

“No, it is precisely to keep the alliance of the Three Demon Kings that I seriously injured you.”

Levi’s expression gradually changed. He stopped pretending to be angry, on the contrary, he smiled coldly.

“As expected of a Demon King who has been in power for more than a thousand years…”

Saros looked at him calmly.

“I have never forgotten the great sin you carry, nor the name of the crown on your head.”

“You are a snake in the shadows, disguising yourself with false appearances. Your dormancy is just to wait for the right time, and your weakness is just because you haven’t seen the flaws of others yet. From the day you wore the crown, your heart was doomed to kept shouting—”

“【Envy】”

Levi slowly knelt down, the wound caused by the abyssal sword was unbearably painful, but he laughed hysterically.

“Alas…here I thought you’d let your guard down…”

Saros looked down at him.

“Let my guard down, and then get stabbed in the back?”

Levi still smiled strangely.

“Ha… what a pity…”

The threat on this front has already been temporarily resolved. As for the root cause, it was never Levi’s wish to find out. It can be said that when the emperor and the prince collapsed, Levi unilaterally dissolved the alliance of the Three Demon Kings. He is the demon king of【envy】, and he can’t tolerate anything superior to him. Once there’s an opportunity, he will stop at nothing to give the other party a fatal blow!

It’s a pity…it’s a pity…

The first thing Saros did before he went after Ansel was to seriously injure Levi, causing Levi’s backstabbing plan to go up in flames, and now he is not even sure if he will be able to suppress all the unruly generals in his territory.

What a shame! How hateful! All thanks to Saros Asmodeus!

“Aini.”

After dealing with Levi’s, the Demon King raised his eyes slightly and called out, and Aini immediately knelt down on one knee nervously.

“Your Majesty!”

“I am going down. You will wait here for at most one magic hour. If Ansel and I don’t come back within a magic hour, retreat back to the camp immediately.” Saros looked calm and methodical, 

He then turned his gaze to the silver-winged dragon on his shoulder, “Suo, you stay too.”

“Awoo!”

“But…..but!” Phoenix Finny was extremely anxious, “But His Majesty… His Majesty…”

Saros was far more patient with Ansel’s subordinate than he was with his own, and he even explained patiently.

“Finny, Guxin, I understand your anxiety, but you just need to remember—”

His dark blue vertical pupils had no warmth at all, only the majesty of a Demon King.

“If there is something that even the Demon King can’t solve, then no matter how many generals you have…”

“It would only be a death sentence.”

Although Finny was worried about His Majesty, he had to sadly admit that what His Majesty Saros said was completely right. Guxin also closed his eyes, and retreated in response.

Seeing the drooping feathers of the phoenix, Saros knew that this little guy is loved by Ansel a lot, and his heart was like a child. He paused for some reason, and continued to reassure Ansel’s subordinates.

It’s definitely not because I’m afraid of being scolded later, hmm.

“Ansel is in danger for the benefit of the demon realm. So no matter what, I will bring him back.”

Bear-headed Guxin was deeply moved. He felt that there are many inaccuracies in the rumors about His Majesty Saros. Now that he came into contact with him personally, he realized that the other party is really a good Demon King who values love and justice.

… Someone must have plotted against His Majesty Saros, and spread those rumors.

 * * *

With everything in order, Saros spread his bat wings and flew down the crack. The Orb of Time and Space was tightly held in his hands. With such a thing, if he found Ansel and it was difficult to escape from danger, he can transfer themselves to another place first, and then contact the Demon Realm.

He arranged everything in an order, but deep down in his heart, he felt a bit of…..

Hesitation.

How did he get to this point? First he cared, then he agreed, and finally he was shaken because of the other party’s safety. The moment Ansel flew down the crack, he was almost in a state of chaos.

On top of that, Ansel is still an unknown….

Angel.

He should’ve been wary, on guard and gotten rid of him, but he forgave, indulged, and harbored admiration. He is almost violating the ancestral precept of eliminating all threats in the demon realm, and compromising his position as a Demon King…

He has fallen to such an extent.

Is it just because Ansel touched his horns? Saros suddenly remembered the fable he had heard when he was a child.

At the beginning of the creation of the world, the Creator summoned his two favorite creatures to sit before him.

【Now, I will hold out all the precious things in this world, and you can choose one as your soul.】

After the Creator spoke, both creatures chose their souls.

The gods took away ‘virtue’ and transformed it into a halo above their heads.

【From today, virtue is my soul.】

The Demon God also took one thing and turned it into horns on his head.

As a child, he listened carefully, and then humbly asked his teacher.

【So, the horns are the soul, and that kind of thing… right, teacher?】

【Yes, Your Highness.】

【So, only my queen can touch them?】

【Yes, Your Highness.】

The white-haired demon laughed and said,【Of course, it could also be possible that the queen touched your horn, which is why she became your queen.】

The young Saros grimaced and shook his head stubbornly.

【No, teacher. Because that kind of thing rests on my horns, I regard it as the most precious, so…】

【I will not allow anyone to touch my horns until I am sure that they are my destined person!】

The teacher suddenly looked at him worriedly and sighed deeply.

 【Hey, don’t be so absolute, Your Highness, at least when you fall in love…】

【No! 】

【Alas, this…】

The young Saros had long planned that the first touch should be on the wedding night after he and the queen got married. He had drawn up countless possibilities for that scene, imagined endless fantasies, each of which made his heart flutter.

However, how did Ansel end up touching his horns?

【You and me, one-on-one, do you dare?】

Of course he dared, the Demon King was not afraid of provocation!

The two finally had a real fight on the competition stage, and that’s when Ansel grabbed his horns! Saros was too shocked, and all he could think about at that time was——

Wedding night!  ! !

But the white-haired demon king didn’t understand his floating thoughts at all, he grabbed him by the horns, and took advantage of his stunned state——

And gave him a beautiful over the shoulder throw!
