The Lord of Ashes

"When I was still a demon lord, Carter Gustavo was already a powerful demon king whose reputation spread throughout many levels of hell."

"His strength and past achievements have moved many hell demons."

"I heard that this demon king once had a fight with the brother of the Abyss Demon Dragon King, but in the end he was only slightly less successful." Leo Tolstoy said in a deep voice.

After hearing this, the Spider Queen smiled and said: "This Carter Gustavo has now been promoted to master."

The Spider Queen's words instantly silenced the Bloody Battle Hall, which was originally noisy and full of whispers.

"Have we, the demon clan, finally got a new master?" The cunning demon, as wrinkled as a ball of flesh, said with a long sigh.

His words were also the common sentiments of the other demons present.

The master of the demon clan, ‏​​‎​‏‎‏‏‎‎​‏‏‎‎ is also known as the “Devil King”.

Once upon a time, the hell world was also a super powerful world with several demon kings.

"After the hell I was guarding was breached by the Light Gods, I could not retreat to the lower space of hell because the intestines of the abyss were severed, so I could only lead my tribe to break out."

"At that time, I was a level five demon."

"Frequent battles, encounters with the Light God Clan, and the years of wandering around the star realm led me to make breakthroughs one after another. In just tens of thousands of years after leaving hell, I successively jumped up the level and reached the peak of level six. And finally come to this special world.”

"In the realm of dominance, I should have no chance to break through."

"But I can hear that Carter Gustavo, the great demon king, can be promoted to master. We, the demon clan, still have hope of rising in the future!" Leo Tolstoy said in a deep voice.

The bloody war monarch did not doubt the words of Thane and Rose.

After all, if they could even pronounce the name Carter Gustavo, it meant that they must have come into contact with other demons.

Moreover, with Carter Gustavo's talent, it is indeed natural to be promoted to the master.

This is a demon who is far older and more powerful than the Blood War King.

In other words, if Carter Gustavo showed up here right now.

I am afraid that more than two hundred demon kings in the entire purgatory space will all join its ranks.

The demon clan's concept of seeking strength and the principle of supremacy in strength make these demons know that they must follow a demon king in order to have a better future.

Spider Queen Rose not only knew Carter Gustavo, she also knew that this master-level demon was actually living under her adoptive father Nigel. However, there is no need to reveal this information to the demon survivors in front of them now.

The Spider Queen then mentioned that Carter Gustavo had led other demons to establish the "New Hell", which is where the demons now mainly breed and live.

Including the rules and attributes, it is better than the purgatory in Faerun.

At least in the "new hell", there are no rules to exclude people, and there will be no degradation of the demon clan.

It has to be said that the degradation of these demons in Faerûn has become increasingly serious.

And the number of varieties is far less than that in New Hell.

After all, when the Blood War Lord escaped from hell, he was only a fifth-level demon with a limited number of people under his command.

At that time, he was being pursued by the Angel Legion of the Light God Clan. Later, he also suffered a lot while wandering in the star realm.

In the end, he was able to take the few remaining ethnic groups into the continent of Faerûn by mistake, and finally settled down completely in this world, and managed it to the situation it is today. A miracle.

How could you ask for more?

This is also the ability of Leo Tolstoy, Lord of Blood.

If it were any other demon, he might not be able to reach the level of Leo Tolstoy.

With Spider Queen Rose negotiating on his behalf, Thane would have an easier time.

The exchange of interests between Rose and these purgatory demons has nothing to do with Thain. The main reason is that he is not at a high level.

But Thain can still enjoy some visible benefits.

For example, he will definitely not be short of specimens and research objects of the demon clan in the next period of time.

Including some resources and materials abundant in the purgatory space, it is enough for him to eat.

Different classes of creatures have different demands.

What the Spider Queen values ​​is some of the interests of this world.

What Thain values ​​​​is the benefits he can get in front of him.

What those purgatory demons value is freedom and the future of the race.

…

The Spider Queen talked for a long time with Leo Tolstoy.

Regarding the Blood War Monarch's suggestion that the demon clan should leave the continent of Faerûn immediately, the Spider Queen expressed that she was helpless for the time being.

The closed nature of this world makes even the eighth-level black magician Nigel find it difficult.

Especially now during the Saint Catastrophe, the isolation is far greater than before.

Even if the wizard civilization launches an expedition against this large world, it will have to wait until the Saint Catastrophe is over and the rules of this world are loosened.

More importantly, Nigel said that he would have to wait until the civilized war between the Wizarding World and the Gallente Federation is over before he can persuade other senior leaders of the Wizarding World to launch an attack on this world.

At this juncture when the war of civilization is about to break out, it is absolutely impossible for the Wizarding World to have any more wars with other large worlds.

Therefore, the answer given by the Spider Queen is, please give the wizarding world about 20,000 years to prepare.

Twenty thousand years later, can the wizarding world end its civilized war with the Gallente Federation?

Only the devil knows!

But the Spider Queen must give such an explanation to win over Leo Tolstoy and other devils.

And she also agreed that she would negotiate with Carter Gustavo and other demons on her behalf.

Twenty thousand years is nothing. With Leo Tolstoy's life span, fifty thousand years can be expected.

As long as he can leave this world before he dies, take a look at the prosperity of the star world, and hand over the demon clan to the hands of Gustavo and other demons, he That's enough.

The requirements of this sixth-level peak demon are extremely simple and unsophisticated.

Speaking of which, devils and demons are both symbols of evil.

But in comparison, demons are easier to deal with.

At least they are all upright and rarely do any evil tricks.

…

After the Spider Queen gained the trust and friendship of veteran top demons such as Leo Tolstoy, Thain was also arranged to a beautiful place on the second floor of Purgatory.

Since the Spider Queen only reached a verbal agreement with these purgatory demons and did not implement it at the level of rules and contracts, it is impossible for the demons to sacrifice their lives for her or do anything else now.

The Spider Queen has won a vote of potential allies for herself, and Leo Tolstoy and others have gained a hope of leaving Faerûn in the future.

The reason why I stayed in the second level of purgatory instead of the bottom level.

It's because according to the Spider Queen, the subtle influence of the Heart of Hell on him is not a good thing.

If Thane doesn't want to become as bloodthirsty and warlike as a demon in the future, he'd better not stay in the bottom of hell for a long time.

In addition, it may be to deceive others and avoid the pursuit of the gods of the order camp in Faerun.

After Thain was in the purgatory space, he tried not to show his human body. It was best to maintain his demonic form.

In order to be more like him, Leo Tolstoy even ordered his demon king to give Thain a territory and give him the title of demon lord.

Ash Lord is Thane's new title.

He and the Bone Lord who took him to the bottom of Purgatory were even neighbors.
