Southern Hell.

In a noble estate.

"Kneel! You ungrateful child, you stole your fiancée's ruby necklace for the ball and won't admit it?"

A furious shout echoed.

A middle-aged man in a black tailcoat, full of anger, was staring at a pale young man kneeling on the floor.

Behind the middle-aged man were the black wings of a Great Demon Lord, exuding a heavy aura of authority:

"Stealing from your fiancée, how can we, the Rasi Family, hold our heads high in the future?"

The pale young man, Goliath, was a son-in-law to this family, valued by the Patriarch for his bravery and strength, betrothed to his daughter.

Yet his fiancée Anna was a malicious woman who looked down on him and falsely accused him of stealing the ruby necklace, framing him.

Anna added fuel to the fire nearby:

"I don't blame Goliath, it's just a ruby necklace, he is to be my husband eventually, everything our family has will belong to him.

I don't even blame you for gambling away the other necklaces, but that ruby necklace was for the ball..."

Anna began to cry.

"Degenerate!"

That Great Demon Lord Silla drew out a black bone whip and lashed fiercely at Goliath,

"I'll beat you to death today!"

Thwack, thwack.

The whip continually struck Goliath's body, leaving streaks of blood.

Goliath was struck until his face was twisted in pain, but in his heart, he thought:

"It's almost time; I never imagined that fool of a teacher in the royal capital truly settled the world for me, removing obstacles."

"Having endured ten years, it's time to return as the Demon King."

He focused his thoughts, looking at his father in front of him.

He no longer had the mind to play this boring game of house with them.

He endured the pain, absorbing resentment, merely to continue improving his Shadow Compatibility.

Pain and resentment had already raised him from a 94 compatibility to 95.

The next moment, his figure flickered, effortlessly dodging his father's attack, looking at his coldly observing mother and hypocritical fiancée, suddenly feeling it all so boring.

Boom!

His father flew back.

All the nobles in the family hadn't expected Goliath to resist, and for a time, they were a bit bewildered.

Fiancée Anna was the first to react, screaming loudly:

"Damn you, Goliath, stealing my necklace and attacking father, you don't deserve to stay in the storeroom, you deserve the water dungeon where slaves are held!"

"So noisy."

Goliath was very annoyed by this scheming and constantly calculating fiancée, and slapped her to the ground with one blow.

"How dare you!" His father was about to stand up again.

"Kneel, I have something to tell you all."

With Goliath's exhalation, the entire sky instantly changed, becoming dark and gloomy.

The world seemed to be covered by a domain of darkness.

Their shadows on the ground became more distorted, revealing crimson, cruel pupils, as if the shadows were their true form.

Those shadows were the shadow guards of Demon King Goliath.

Thud!

They all simultaneously controlled Goliath's family to quickly kneel, respectfully saying: "King, you have finally seen us."

All the family members trembled, seeing this illegitimate child they used to insult showcasing terrifying divine-demonic powers, their eyes widened in disbelief:

King?

He is the Demon King?

Impossible!

Wasn't the Demon King said to indulge in pleasure and cowardice in the royal capital, never going to war?

Wait a minute.

Never leaving the royal capital, maybe the king there was merely a substitute.

He was hiding.

Even using his mentor, Plague Demon King Lilith, in the plan to trick her into conquering lands for him?

In their hearts, they trembled, feeling embroiled in a terrifying conspiracy.

"Wait, we are family..." Anna suddenly shouted: "I am the future Demon Queen..."

Rumble!

"Since you are the future family, you should lend me a hand."

As he spoke, the shadows under their feet seemed to turn into an endless black hole, devouring their flesh and dissolving their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, no family members remained at the scene.

But it wasn't enough.

He walked out of the estate, looking at the maids and servants.

"No, Goliath, you're so kind..."

"I even helped you, I am innocent! I gave you half of my food..."

"Why, why? Isn't it in the stories that the maid helps the abused child, and he eventually becomes a hero, marrying a beautiful and hardworking maid?"

His hands never stopped.

He killed every living thing, including trained mounts, and innocent guests.

His eyes showed no change, only endless coldness and calmness, with a hint of madness and pleasure, his smile manic.

It sent chills down one's spine.

This was the true nature of the Demon King.

"It's about time."

Goliath lightly clenched his hand, countless shadows gathered like black swimming fish towards him, making his shadow increasingly black as ink.

All these years, he had been deceiving his teacher.

That Lilith thought it was her own scheme.

Plotting against the Light God.

Resisting the heroine Rilla's army...

In fact, it was all his continuous hints, Lilith believed it was her idea.

"Besides, if she were truly smart and cunning, how did she get caught by the first Demon King?"

Goliath said lightly.

He was very cunning, very greedy.

This was the true Demon King.

The more one is compatible with this Shadow Divine Object, the more cunning, cruel, insidious they are...how could they possibly be a fool?
