Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 183 The Forces That Can Be Won

Nore's attitude surprised the Wise King. Logically speaking, Nore was the Wise King's former subordinate and was loyal to the Wise King's choice. At that time, the Wise King appointed Nore as the commander to attack the Ice Kingdom, which was a great honor for the entire Thunder Emperor family. The report afterward concluded that the Thunder Emperor had died in battle.

As a result, she ended up working as a maid for the Demon King, and she seemed to be quite happy doing so.

The expectations we once shouldered—

"Are you saying that you abandoned the glory of being the Thunder Emperor, abandoned your identity as the Thunder Emperor, gave up the weight you once shouldered, and thus also gave up the things called glory, so that you can say you have finally seen your true self?" the Wise King asked.

Nore nodded. "Yes, that's right. Not as a human genius, not as someone who needs to bear the weight and honor of the family, but simply as a maid, my daily tasks are cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, and tending to the grapes in the courtyard. This makes me feel fulfilled—I don't need to consider the exchange of interests between families, I don't need the strength of others... I still study magic, but my feelings are different. I think back to the first time I came into contact with magic... At that time, I was simply attracted to magic, I thought magic was so beautiful... But later, the burdens of magic became far too heavy."

She knew that the wise king did not agree with her ideas, but that did not stop her from sharing her thoughts with him. After all, this was in Moh’s mansion, and the wise king could not cause any trouble.

Therefore, there is no need to worry that the wise king will get angry.

She adopted the air of a wise elder and said to the wise king, "You need to understand these kinds of things better."

……

Moh knew very well what Doro was doing. Right now, all she and Doro were doing was trying to win over the various powers.

The Church of the White is undoubtedly on Doro's side. Even though Shati has broken ties with Doro, the Church of the White is fundamentally human, born under the will of the goddess, so there's no point in trying to win them over. Outside of this faction, the dwarves have clearly expressed their intention to submit to them.

Clearly, King Bahadur was much more reliable than Doroth.

The remaining force worth pursuing is the Elven race, which has already been weakened by Doro. Although this race has lost much of its power, it is indeed worth trying to win them over. As for the minority races—they can usually be considered opportunists; they won't take sides until there is a clear distinction between the strong and the weak.

Of course, from the perspective of protecting biodiversity, Moher would not take action against these races, since these things are not worth paying attention to anyway, and Doro would not take action against these minority races either, as he is the "kind" one.

She admitted that she had been somewhat anxious before, after all, Doro's actions had indeed wronged her. However, as a powerful and ancient being, she possessed a strong inner strength capable of calmly viewing everything. Of course, she allowed herself to have some emotional fluctuations, and she allowed herself to lose her composure due to various things, but ultimately, she was always at peace.

If she were to name a faction she personally admires, it would be the Alchemists' Guild. She greatly admires Adeline, and after experiencing defeat, she believes Adeline should grow even further. She acknowledges Adeline's imagination. The Cursed Masters' Alliance naturally gravitates towards her faction, but she wonders what that Yin Nefeld is truly thinking.

However, she knew she would soon find out what Yin Nefeld was thinking, and that person would definitely come to see her.

As for the Mage Guild, this organization is very ambiguous. Adriana is a very complex person, and no one knows what she really thinks of Doro. It is also difficult to describe Doro's opinion of Adriana after he defeated her.

Moh believed that the Mage Guild could be considered as Doro's faction.

Therefore, for Moher, the forces he needs to win over are the Elf race, the Alchemist Guild, and the Cursed Masters Alliance.

The Alchemists' Guild is nominally affiliated with the Church of the White, but everyone knows that being dependent on others is not a pleasant experience. However, Adeline is arguably the most human-like member of the group, and she doesn't seem to have any irreconcilable conflict with Doro. In Buto City, Doro's anger wasn't due to Adeline's personality or anything like that, but rather his disapproval of her ideals. After being defeated by him, Adeline will likely abandon that earthly paradise ideal, and the relationship between Doro and Adeline might change from that point on.

Will the Alchemists' Guild and Adeline become estranged? I certainly have a lot of leverage to offer, but...

They're becoming increasingly disloyal and alienated!
After all, the world once united to resist the Demon King's rule. Even if internal problems have arisen among them, and they can never be as united as before, it shouldn't affect their unity around Doro. Even though Moh holds the highest position in many fields and can offer tempting terms to negotiate with certain organizations, the leaders of these organizations will not change because of it... otherwise, they wouldn't have united in the past.

In this situation, Moh was at a natural disadvantage. The former hero, Doro, had an extremely high reputation in this regard... even though he was notorious in the past. However, this notorious reputation had been washed away by the wise queen with her own life.

To put it bluntly, even if Moh were to manipulate the Wise King to denounce Doro's crimes now, the world would only see the despicable Demon King and the Wise King as the best possible embodiment of the slander once leveled against Doro.

How come you feel like you've already lost before the game even starts?
"As expected of Mr. Doro who defeated me?! He's incredibly strong!"

Rose watched Moher muttering to himself, somewhat speechless: "Speaking of which, you let Lisdowei go, but why didn't you let me go? I also have a physical connection with Doro, so I should leave with her to find Doro."

Mohe's gaze fell upon her, and she casually waved her hand: "If you want to leave, then hurry up. I almost forgot. It's up to you. Look, I don't care about A. Sion either; she probably ran away quietly herself. Speaking of which, I also have to count the two snow elves who I personally promoted as symbols of the underworld. That should also be considered part of Doro's power. Wow, what a desperate situation, just like when he chopped off my head."

"Your tone doesn't sound like you're in despair."

Moh spread his hands: "If that's how you want to think, then there's nothing I can do. The truth is, I'm truly desperate. By the way, what are you still doing here?"

"I'm mainly thinking about one thing, the Demon King."

"If you marry Doro, will the world be at peace?"

Moher looked at Rose with suspicion: "Are you out of your mind? Don't you like Mr. Doro yourself? Why would you ask such a question?"

"I'm just asking. If you don't want to answer, then forget it."

"Hmm... Let's put reality aside for now. Following your logic, if I were to marry Mr. Doro, it would be like the Wise King saying he wanted to marry Xia Di. It seems like we could both benefit. I wouldn't have to worry about Doro suddenly going berserk and cutting off my head, and Doro wouldn't have to worry about me causing trouble in secret. The Human King and the Demon King would be united as one, fighting together for the betterment of the world. With my talent and Mr. Doro's benevolence, we could surely build a very beautiful world... Don't you think that sounds pretty good?"

“That’s right.” Rose thought so too. No matter how you looked at it, the most suitable person to be Doro’s partner was actually the Demon King before her—because only she shared the same life essence as Doro. Others could never think from the same perspective as Doro. “Standing at such a high place for so long, you must have felt lonely, right? You are not the same person you were as the Demon King, are you? You are actually excited that someone like Doro exists.”

Moh remained noncommittal: "You're truly arrogant, Rose. To presume to guess the Demon King's inner thoughts is a display of arrogance and ignorance. I can't tell you much, but I've said before that the goddess and I were lovers, yet in the end, I was on earth, and she was in heaven. Even if she marries Doro, what then? The final result will be the same as before. The person you once thought you could rely on, the person you once believed could lean on even if the world changed countless times, the only person you could trust, will eventually have extreme disagreements due to differences in ideals and thoughts. As time goes by, these disagreements grow larger, and you become more and more stubborn. As memories accumulate, friction increases, and this is the inevitable ending."

She explained the facts of the past: "The goddess chose humans as the final race, but only gave them such a short life. Perhaps it was not just for the sake of balance, but because she felt that having a long life was not necessarily a good thing."

I don't understand this kind of thing.

Rose said she couldn't empathize with Moher: "So, are you sure you won't like Doro?"

"Rather, why do you think that way? Do Mr. Doro and I look like we have some kind of romantic relationship? I remember someone said I seemed jealous before, was it you? Or someone else? I can't quite remember~" Moher looked at Rose with interest, "Is human affection like this?"
