The journey of dragon transformation starting from Demon Slayer

At that time, the power he possessed was only a little stronger. And the decision to become the "king" was only after the three-party talks ended and he went to the "Uruk Dynasty" in the singularity "Mesopotamia" alone.

I am in this life thanks to the "gift", as well as the blessings of Esdeath, Nadezhda and others, and of course the leader of the An Ning Dao.

These few people unknowingly deified him, saying that he was a god descending from heaven to fight 1V4. Well, no, it's not an exaggeration to say that he was a god descending from heaven.

In addition, he happened to possess divine power at the time, so when he showed his prowess in front of people, he was naturally believed in by countless people and became the undisputed "Supreme God King" of the empire.

But honestly speaking, if he had not chosen not to be a human being, he would most likely have died suddenly on the throne within a few months due to being too busy with work.

Frankly speaking, the job of a king is not something that a human can be. It is more attractive to be a tyrant than a wise king.

Um, wait, doesn't that mean you have to work at night after working during the day? The best of the best?

Thinking of this, Tatsumi couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, as if he thought of himself lying on the bed with his eyes closed, about to die.

"Um... let's talk business first..."

Ajeka smiled and nodded, "Okay. I have prepared everything in advance..."

As he spoke, Ajeka snapped his fingers, and then a magic circle slowly rose up, and then a chessboard slowly appeared in front of Tatsumi.

The entire chessboard is composed of black and white squares, and the edge is wrapped with an exquisitely carved wooden frame. Many chess pieces of various shapes are placed on the chessboard, and these are the "devil chess pieces".

But it's true, when it comes to Demon King Beelzebub, the most famous thing is probably the creation of the "evil piece".

Even Tatsumi knew this, because to become a reincarnated devil one must understand the customs and culture of devils, among which the history of the Demon King and contemporary families is of utmost importance, so he also knew a thing or two about the life experiences of the four Demon Kings.

He remembered that as soon as Ajeka took the position of Demon King Beelzebub, he published his research topic, which was "How to create reincarnated demons."

Hundreds of years ago, the emergence of this topic caused a sensation in the underworld, because if this topic became possible, the number of demons would increase dramatically. However, a series of corresponding problems would also arise.

The first is the question of acceptance. Because before the appearance of the "demon chess piece", the demons in the underworld did not have followers. There were only servants and kinship relationships between families.

The underworld is an aristocratic society, and in the eyes of demons, bloodline and status are more important than anything else. It seems absurd to ask the nobles to share their power with outsiders.

However, in order to consider the future of the races that have experienced the war between the three major forces and the exhausted demon civil war, the charm of the reincarnation system is really irresistible, so the "ranking game" came into being.

The fact is just as Ajeka expected. The emergence of "Devil Chess Pieces" and "Ranking Game" has greatly relieved the pressure on the underworld. At the same time, the new way of playing has also made some nobles who have found it difficult to accept gradually accept the existence of "Followers" and enjoy collecting them.

Although everyone's methods of collecting followers were good and bad, the decline of the demons was generally stopped, which allowed the underworld to continue to operate as it was at the time and laid a solid foundation for the subsequent series of reforms.

Without Ajeka, there would be no underworld as it is today.

The contribution of this demon king is so great.

"Fifteen... um? Sixteen?"

Tatsumi counted the pieces on the chessboard and froze when he saw a piece that looked completely different from the others.

"Wait, isn't this the 'King' chess piece?"

"Isn't this thing non-existent? I remember that demons should become 'kings' by registering on stone tablets, so that the system can operate, right?"

Seeing Tatsumi's puzzled look, Ajeka nodded and responded, "Yes, the 'King' chess piece has been announced to the public as non-existent. Logically, this chess piece should not exist."

"You used to be a 'soldier', so you should know how the devil chess pieces are awarded."

"Whether you are a high-ranking demon or a reincarnated demon that has separated from its master, you are eligible to receive your own set of 'demon chess pieces'."

"After passing the promotion ceremony and becoming a high-level demon, the lander can register as a 'king' by touching the 'stone tablet' that only exists in the lord's castle of each territory and the demon king's castle in the demon king's territory, and gain the power to have followers and a set of 'demon chess pieces' other than the 'king'."

"As you said, in the Devil's chess piece system, the 'King' was originally a registration system. Or rather, I set it up as a registration system on purpose. This was to prevent the 'King' from coming to light."

"I think that when the subordinate demon is upgraded, the chess pieces in the body may overlap and merge with the "King" chess piece. This will be very dangerous..."

Tazmi nodded.

What Ajeka means is not difficult to understand. To put it simply, it means that hardware conflicts may occur.

In modern society, most electronic devices will encounter this situation when they are upgraded, especially computers.

As a person who loves games, Tatsumi knows that hardware cannot be replaced at will, and a certain balance must be achieved in terms of function and compatibility. In layman's terms, it means whether it can be used and whether there will be conflicts.

If the hardware is incompatible, the two sides will not be able to recognize each other, and a series of problems will occur, such as failure to boot up, inability to install the system, screen flashing, crazy restarts, high voltage burning low voltage accessories, and system crashes.

If this is the case with electrical equipment, what would happen if it were replaced with "life"? Especially since there are sixteen chess pieces, it is equivalent to sixteen lives at once if something goes wrong, so Ajeka's worry is not unreasonable.

"Of course there is another reason...that is you..."

"I?"

Ajeka picked up the King chess piece and said slowly, "In fact, if it weren't for you, I might never have taken this chess piece out in my life..."

Tatsumi showed a puzzled expression, "Why do you say that?"

Ajeka smiled and said, "Haha, actually it's mainly to show sincerity, because hiding things is not called cooperation..."

After all, it is an exchange of technology, so it would be more convincing to present a complete set of chess pieces.

Moreover, some players would specifically miss a general or a king when they got the chess pieces.

He knew the potential of the "Gift" better than anyone else, and a whole set of demon chess pieces were just a by-product of what he gave away.

Thinking of this, Ajeka showed a complicated expression, "And..."

Tatsumi tilted his head, his eyes with a black cross engraved on them filled with confusion and curiosity.

"..."

Ajeka was silent for a second, then spoke again, "Forget it, I'd better explain to you the characteristics of this chess piece first... When I finish, you will understand why I showed the expression I showed just now..."

Ajeka said as he raised his arm and placed the "King" chess piece between himself and Tatsumi.

"The characteristic of this 'King' chess piece is the most common 'enhancement'. However, it is not to the extent of doubling or tripling the power. It is to be at least ten times, or even a hundred times more 'enhancement'. It is no longer as simple as raising a few levels..."

"I just said to ban the 'King' chess piece for this reason. The bonus of the 'King' chess piece is too strong. I am afraid that someone will have evil intentions towards the current government after gaining power and intend to harm the government."

"After all, powerful forces can blind people's eyes... and demons are one of the races with the strongest desires besides humans..."

Upon hearing the effect of the "King" chess piece, Tatsumi was stunned for a second, and when he heard Ajeka's next words, he sighed softly.

Unlike the "Underworld" which had experienced internal strife and was still worried about external threats, he was basically the only one ruling the "Empire" now.

He had considered situations like this when he first took office. Knowing that only unification could bring true peace, he decided to conquer the world within five years. He relied on the "Dragon Gate" that could transport hundreds of millions of troops per second and the real "divine power" to force countries around the world to obey.

Those who refuse to obey will be beaten, and those who obey will be rewarded with sweet treats.

As long as you accept the rule of the empire obediently, you will live a happy life away from 007, officially become "God's people", and enjoy the "grant" of divine power.

In the world of Zanachi, there are many countries around the world, and most of them are aristocratic societies. Among them, the "Empire" that has declined for a thousand years is the most powerful "kingdom", but it does not have the ability to conquer the world.

However, after he took over, the empire's development speed changed day by day. While the people's happiness index continued to improve, the martial spirit became stronger.

Maybe it was because of the scene where he kicked the Gundam, or maybe it was because of hearsay, but in any case, the places where soldiers are recruited are now crowded every day, and it is no exaggeration to say that the thresholds have been trampled out.

Although his actions were considered a dimensionality reduction attack and unethical to other countries, from a side perspective, with the unification of the empire in the past two years, the whole world has begun to become stable.

Although the "gift" was not fully delegated, the effect it brought was obvious. You can even say that he is the only god in the world of Slash Aka.

Now there will be no more wars in the world, and all regions are showing a trend of rapid development. Wars between countries will be eliminated, there will be no distance barriers between people, and the term "living and working in peace and contentment" will no longer be a fantasy.

His legend is praised by the world, and as long as he lives, this peace will last forever.

It is precisely because he possesses "power", a terrifying "great power" that far exceeds that of others, that he can achieve a high degree of unification in the world, making it impossible for people to rebel and to yearn for it.

However, unlike the dictatorship of the "Empire", the politics of the underworld is not dictatorial, but is jointly governed by four demon kings. There are various factions and the political problems are very bad.

Although the four demon kings are good friends, the people who gather around them each hold their own faction, and then there is also the Grand Duke and the King each holding their own faction.

Among them, the Great King's family is particularly powerful. It is no exaggeration to say that they are so powerful that they are above the Demon King.

How can we talk about unity if people are not united?

And it's not just politics. The demon society that has experienced division is now divided into two factions, the "current demon king" and the "old demon king", which means it is attacked from all sides.

He fully understood why Ajeka would ban the "King" chess piece. Even he had considered something similar when he took over, not to mention him, a demon who had been a demon king for hundreds of years.

What if another country attacks us? What if someone refuses to obey our rule and wants to rebel? What if the country collapses because of one person?

Although he seems to be a bit paranoid, Tatsumi always considers things from the worst angle and is always thinking about unification.

Is this a common problem for all kings? Tatsumi couldn't help but wonder.

But speaking of demons obsessed with power, he had seen such beings before, when he was a demon.

For example, the current "White Dragon King".

The half-human, half-demon Wally Lucifer, who awakened the "God-annihilating Tool" "White Dragon King's Light Wings", is the grandson of the Demon King and inherited the Demon King's bloodline. Or the Demon King's successors of the "Old Demon King Faction" who obtained the "Ouroboros" from the "Infinite Dragon God Ophis" and joined the terrorist organization "Misfortune Group" to try to disrupt the tripartite peace talks.

They are all demons seeking "power".

Vali is a warmongerer. He inherited the dragon's personality and loves fighting, but he probably won't pursue any power other than himself and the "sacred weapon".

However, unlike Vali, other demon heirs who inherited the blood of the old demon king had fully demonstrated their obsession with power in front of him. Cattleya, who inherited the name of Leviathan, was one of them.

Although they hate the current Demon King and are reluctant to use the "Devil Pawns" created by the current Demon King to strengthen themselves, with the support of "Infinite Dragon God Ophis", they quickly became a terrorist organization that is hostile to the current Underworld government in a few hundred years.

If the original timeline is followed, a lot of young demons will die in the underworld in the next year, and this is all revenge by the "old demon king" against the current demon king government. And they will formally launch a "coup" in the underworld in the near future, trying to overthrow the current demon regime and restore the original underworld system.

This is the case even when the demons of the old Demon King faction gained power, not to mention the current demon society which is not even an iron barrel.

If the "King" chess piece can be used, there is a high possibility that a high-ranking demon or a reincarnated demon will appear and become complacent.

The case of "rogue demons" is not uncommon, not to mention the Diodora Astarte incident which has not yet happened.

Unless power and consciousness are highly concentrated and the body and mind are unified, people with power will inevitably have all kinds of ideas and have various impacts on the status quo.
