MTL - After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King-Chapter 53 Devil's Evolution Path

  Chapter 53 Evolution route of demons

   "Mr. Ira, what are you looking at?"

   Satan Ye, who was being led by Xilina on horseback, curiously asked Ira who was sitting behind the Black Flame Headless Horseman... At this moment, Ira was reading with a parchment in her hand.

  Although it is heavy, it is the only paper in this world.

  Ira had considered things related to papermaking when he was a magician, but after he checked the information, he found the problem... Many times, parchment is not just a carrier of words.

   In other words, in many cases [text] is not just [text].

   Only cortical paper can carry any form of extraordinary power, whether it is sheepskin collectively referred to as [parchment], cowhide, monster skin, elf skin, or human skin.

  Must need to be biological leather.

  Many magic books, the requirement of paper is even [the skin peeled off when the cow (sheep) is still alive] to be able to carry the mana with [demonstration] magic.

   Magic books related to blood mages, this kind of thing happens especially a lot.

   "Huh? This is the book in the study."

  Ira responded in this way, he turned to the cover of the book and showed it to Satan Ye, Xilina, and the leader of the Headless Horseman... Anyway, you horsemen, don't turn your head to look at it!

  Ira, who was complaining so much in her heart, explained the content of the book tentatively and said: "This "Beauty of Symmetry" mentioned that the current Demon King's Land was a castle with only stone buildings at that time."

   "Probably smaller than the current Demon King's Territory. There is no area for planting and animal husbandry. It is divided into the inner city...that is, the Demon King's castle, and the outer city...that is, the territories of the various leaders."

  Ira said simply, but attracted the attention of others—this is normal, because people in this world don't care about the so-called [history].

  So the records of many past events are dated, and many clues of the past can only be peeped by this kind of miscellaneous books, but few people have this kind of interest.

   "At that time, only the higher races could live in the huge Demon King's City, a place with distinct classes. From this point of view, it is not as reasonable as the current Demon King's territory."

Ira, who was commenting so casually, pointed to a paragraph lightly, and read it word by word: "Here [the devil city divided into the above-ground devil city and the underground devil city presents an extremely symmetrical beauty, Two kings and two thrones have the same position, but without the invasion of foreign enemies, there is a phenomenon of "the king does not see the king" full of aesthetic feeling.]”

   "..."

   "That is to say, in fact, the underground of our Demon King's Territory...is there another Demon Lord's Territory?! Is there another Demon Lord?"

   A somewhat shocked Satan Ye said this, she subconsciously felt that this was impossible, because when there were foreign enemies, the so-called underground Demon King City did not appear.

  Sirina also looked surprised.

"No."

Ira said, a little sorry for his panting, he smiled apologetically, and said: "The back of the book also says [Unfortunately, in a violent betrayal from demonic monsters, the underground demon king The city split from the Demon King City and went to hell. During this betrayal, only a few monsters remained on the main material plane.]”

   "..."

  After Ira told her, everyone else looked at Xilina.

   "Well, are we one of the demons who stayed on the main plane at that time?"

  Sirena said this, she thought about something suspiciously, then shook her head and said: "The content in the book may be credible, but it has nothing to do with us."

   It is true, so Ira is just simply looking at it.

   "The little lemurs who stay on the main plane can also become stronger demons through fighting and growing. So the impact is actually not very big, which is why I said to bring the little lemurs to the battlefield."

Explaining why she wanted Ira to take the little ghoul before, Xilina counted the demon soldiers in her impression, and said: "There are no demon soldiers left in the demon king's collar. After the consul joins the battlefield, The devil is gone."

  Indeed, if the little lemur can evolve into other high-level demons only after being baptized in battle, then after the consul joins the battlefield, the little lemur will never be given the chance to evolve alive.

  Consuls may fall into a bitter battle because the enemy is too strong, and can only call other consuls to participate in the siege of a powerful enemy, but in terms of harvesting weak enemies, it is unimaginable.

Ira also remembered that in the early days of his participation in the war, he could still see dwarfs, demon dog trainers, Baphomets, beholders, baroques, and demon lords active on the battlefield, but after that, they became less and less common. up.

   It turns out that demons are not born, but evolved.

but…

   "Then if the Baroque Balrog and the Baroque Balrog give birth to an offspring, what will be born? The little ghoul or the Balrog?"

  Ira asked, what did he think of, looked at Xilina and asked again: "If humans and succubi can give birth to half-demons, then what will succubi and other demons give birth to?"

   "..."

   These words are really a bit too rude, as if they are saying [What can you and I have? 】The same, but more inclined to shame than insult.

She was so ashamed that Xilina couldn't help but cover her face, but she still explained: "Little demons are evolved from demonic insects. Demonic insects come from the flesh and blood in the demonic pool. Except for succubi, demons have no ability to reproduce."

shameful.

   "Oh, same as me..."

  At this moment, all the shame of Xilina dissipated with Ira's understatement. She glanced at Ira in surprise, and her eyes began to be filled with pity for Ira.

   "Don't look at me like that, it's not just me...all consuls are barren."

Yila knew what she was thinking when she saw Xilena's eyes. He responded to Satan Ye who also showed a surprised expression, and the leader of the Headless Horseman who seemed to be surprised, said: "The harpies Territory, how far is it?"

  People in this world seem to always place great importance on offspring, perhaps this is a kind of emphasis on [inheritance].

   "..."

Xilina, who looked at Ira sadly, shook her head. She looked at the mountain that was still some distance away, and said, "There is still some distance... Well, Mr. Ira, you probably still want a child." ?”

   "I don't want to. After becoming a consul, desire and mood swings will also become dull."

  The talking Ira rolled his eyes, he didn't understand why Xilina was still talking about this topic.

   "..."

   "Actually, succubi can overcome some restrictions."

As Xilina said this, she didn't notice Ira's increasingly speechless expression, and explained: "At least gender and mating behavior can be crossed, but that requires a higher level of strength, but as long as I grow up, At least it can bring you joy."

  Satan leaf: "…"

  Headless Horseman Leader: "..."

  Ira: "I told you I don't need it!"
