Chapter 865 Nuel
Chapter 865 Nuel
Another year passed by.
Lith completed four full years in this world and the level of strength he had achieved was impressive. His physique had grown quite strong which in turn resulted in his magic potential to soar.
The latter could not be worked on right now due to the limitations of this world, but with whatever this place offered, Lith made the best use of it and grew stronger.
All the defenses were set up properly and the preparations were complete. Everyone in the world focused on practicing until the demons arrived and Lith's case was similar as well.
He was training with the maids and every single day, ensured to fill them up as much as possible so that they could harvest the energy and become great powerhouses.
There was no way to tell how powerful the demons were or to gauge their strengths. Thus, the only thing that Lith could do was get himself and everyone around him as much stronger as possible.
While Lith focused on practicing, back in the demon world, a mild chaos had ensued.
Straight from the Demon Court, news had been sent out that they were going to war in a month's time.
This had brought great joy to everybody and a feast was conducted just to celebrate the dates.
For some reason or another, the war was being delayed and it made the demons go through a period of unrest.
Their resources were dwindling and they urgently needed to replenish things for their own betterment, hence the attack on others.You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
Rumours were being spread in the demon society in regards to the Demon King.
For reasons unknown, the Demon King had been acting strange lately. He had barely given anybody any orders or tortured somebody or went on an expedition to hunt for the finest human.
The Demon King just sat there on his throne and gazed at the court officials discussing things.
What made the Demon King silent was something everyone was wondering about. Did he perhaps find out some world shattering secret that had left him speechless?
Or was it because he was planning and thinking about the warfare of the upcoming war?
No, this shouldn't be the case as the Demon King was heavily reliant on his strength. He barely ever used his brains as he was just that powerful, but right now… He seemed to be lost in his own world.
The demons didn't have the courage to look up at him and ask what was up as that could get them killed. They didn't have the audacity to question their King and it was all due to the dominance he had established a long time ago.
With the Demon King being present and also not being present at the same time, things had gotten a bit problematic for the court officials.
They had to work extra hard and discuss properly as they believed the King was watching them at all times and wanted to test their capabilities.
To perform better in front of him and bring out the absolute best, the court officials delayed the war to prepare themselves for absolutely annihilating the other worlds.
While they discussed their things, the Demon King, a green-haired lean and tall man with a really charismatic appearance, stared at them while seated on the high throne.
The green-haired man thought to himself while looking at them, 'It's so many years and these guys never found out. The wizard really did wonders. Nuel, your life really did change huh…'
The lips of the Demon King, Nuel, curved up as he understood just how much power he held.
At the start when Nuel had been in the first meeting, he was cowering in fear behind the throne, hoping that nobody found him out.
However, with the passage of time and help from a mysterious wizard, Nuel had somehow turned into the actual Demon King.
Well, he didn't possess the power or anything of that guy. It was just his looks and his aura.
His aura was what made all the demons realize that he was the real deal, even though he didn't have the strength to back it up.
If these court officials wanted to, they could easily cut Nuel into multiple pieces and feed them to pigs. They barely had any mercy.
But, there was no suspicion whatsoever and simply complete obedience and subservience.
Nuel made use of this thing and slowly influenced the demons to make decisions in his favor and never doubt him on stuff. He also ensured to go compete behind the scenes and learn of a few weaknesses of the demons.
Learning them was essential for his survival and also to help the demons in general improve.
Nuel was an otherworldly creature who had the body of the now Demon King, a really overpowered existence .
Controlling it was obviously not easy and on the off chance that if a mishap occurred, he would end up losing his life again.
He had done the stupid mistake of trying to kill someone the moment he reincarnated and ended his own second life.
Not again, he would never repeat it again as the old saying goes: 'Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.'
The odds of the Demon King suddenly gaining his body back were not low and Nuel thus had to be really careful.
He did his own preparations for that while also leading the demons to attack the other worlds.
Attacking other worlds was a necessity as the demon world didn't contain any resources and was on the verge of collapse.
It was either they died or someone else died and no in between. The demons obviously chose the latter and were now itching to migrate.
Nuel, while having the persona of this person, learnt a lot many things and unlike before, his head was cool and he didn't fall into any scams or got his cover blown.
Other than learning, a bit of the Demon King's memory came to him and during this period, Nuel would begin dreaming and thinking of all sorts of weird things.
For example, most of the time, the memories were about cursing the damn wizard and feeling some strange connection to something.
Nuel knew that this connection was dangerous and hence he didn't touch it. Reincarnation had taught him many things and one of the important ones was to always listen to his gut feelings.
Having amassed knowledge, he began cultivating. He first cultivated his physique and then tried to cultivate magic, but it was all a futile effort as this place didn't have enough elemental energies.
Hotspots were the only areas but that too were uncertain and the concentration was definitely low.
Nuel gave up on cultivating magic and focused on whatever he had at present.
The Demon King, the original self, could actually do summoning magic and even spit out many elemental spells.
However, this didn't seem like something Nuel would be capable of doing. By no means was he underestimating himself, but he was being practical and thinking rationally.
Death had made him calmer and more rational and all thanks to that, Nuel gave up wanting to know magic.
Thus, Nuel spent his days cultivating while keeping an eye on the discussion of the court officials. It had not been easy, but days turned into weeks, and weeks into years.
Nuel was starting to get high on this Demon King's energy and after three years of improvement, he found himself ready to attack any place he so wished.
Thus, Nuel gave everybody a month's time to actually relax this time as he would be needing them every single day from here on and many wouldn't even make it back alive.
Time with one's precious ones was something they should learn to spend like how Nuel had learnt it.
With the forced break, things had gotten a bit relaxed and nobody was as tense as before.
Finally, after a month, the date finally appeared.
As per Nuel's instructions, everybody was positioned properly in their respective places and were awaiting orders from Nuel, the Demon King.
Instead of ordering them to march, Nuel took this time to give everyone a small speech.
This speech was mandatory and had to be given to boost morale.
Demons didn't have any sense of camaraderie and to work in unison, some things had to be done for better coordination.
Other than that, they also were told to expect a good challenge in that place and chances of lots of bloodshed happening were definitely not low.
Just like that, the demon army got ready and armoured up to fight against the different worlds in the star system they were in.
While they readied themselves, back in Dushkarbor, Lith who was currently sitting on top of the watchtower, suddenly had a strange feeling pop up.
He didn't know what it was, but that feeling made him get up and look around.
Lith stared at the distance for a while and as he was gazing, chonky boi came right beside him and tugged his hand.
"Big bro, they're coming…"
