Fulilian: Dominate Aura at the beginning

Chapter 170 After You Die—

The best future...

That was a terrible answer.

So it turns out Shurahart learned this from you, you old geezer.

My foolish disciple became like that because of you, the source of all evil, right?

Because both Shurahart and his foolish disciple had said such stupid things.

Therefore, Agusid appeared quite hostile upon hearing the Demon King's answer.

"The best future?"

The most powerful demon, speaking in an unfriendly tone laced with sarcasm, retorted:
"Just for such a boring and vague reason?"

Boring and ethereal...

Agusid's assessment caused the Demon King to slowly close his eyes, and then he responded softly with a sense of helplessness.

“But I think it makes sense, Agushid,”

"I don't see what's meaningful about it."

The assessment of the most powerful demon race is entirely based on personal feelings, without a trace of reason.

"I have been forced to separate from my lover for a thousand years..."

"Do you really think this bizarre future is the most beautiful part of life?"

The Demon King propped his chin up and responded softly to Agushid.

"To be precise, this is an essential part, Agushid."

"And it was precisely because of this that I initially began researching resurrection—"

"This is to make up for all the suffering you may have endured in this thousand years."

"So ultimately, if you are able to reunite with that woman in the future, it will be thanks to the most beautiful future that I firmly believe in."

Because of the hope for the best future, that's why we study resurrection...

"What do you mean?"

"Are you saying that your research on resurrection was all because of me, for my sake?"

Agusid, somewhat bewildered by the Demon King's words, slowly raised his head.

"No, you didn't do it for me—"

The next moment, Agusid, having figured something out, denied himself.

"You're doing this only because the future you envision is related to me, isn't it?"

Agushid's predictions have always been accurate.

But the Demon King did not give a specific answer.

He simply shrugged and said meaningfully.

"Who knows..."

"Just like when you broke into the Demon King's castle, I didn't kill you—"

"I have my reasons, and how you think about it is your business."

The most powerful demon fell silent.

He had not suffered more shocks in the previous thousand years than in a single day today.

The possibility of being brought back to life...

The Demon King's reasons for his actions...

And the possible relationship between the Demon King's so-called best future and himself...

These three core ideas intertwined in his mind, leaving him somewhat hesitant for a moment.

"I know this is abstract and hard to understand—"

“But Agushid, I hope you can understand my predicament and my actions.”

"Even though you probably still hate me and would love to kill me at the first chance."

The Demon King's next words made Agusid's mood even more depressed.
The most powerful demon raised his head, looked at the sea of ​​clouds on the horizon, and sighed.

"That's why I hate communicating with you..."

"It's even more annoying than talking to Shurahart."

"Hidden from beginning to end, riddles everywhere—"

"Didn't he learn to be like that from you?"

The Demon King smiled slightly and did not deny it.

"That's my style."

"And in order to ensure that the future I am pursuing will be reached without fail, I must do so."

"Please forgive me." Forgive me...

Of course, Agushid would not forgive him; he would only hate it more.

But he didn't say it.

After a moment of silent contemplation, the topic was brought up.

"Although I'm not entirely satisfied with your reasoning..."

"But as things stand now, I really have no choice but to accept it."

The most powerful demon raised his eyelids, his tone calm and collected.

He regained his composure and stopped acting on emotion.

"You set a time, specifically when do you want the fight to start?"

"Let me make this clear beforehand, I'll give you a maximum of ten minutes for the whole process."

"If your trump cards can hold you until then."

The fact that Agushid could say such a thing already indicates that he accepted the Demon King's reasons.

certainly--

Whether he understood the meaning or not, only Agushid himself knew.

Having received an affirmative answer, the Demon King opened his eyes.

He remained calm and composed, as if he had expected this outcome.

"How about tomorrow at noon?"

"At that time, I will be able to prepare my trump card."

"Of course, if you have other plans, you can postpone it for a while."

No objection was raised to Agushid's additional condition of "a maximum of ten minutes".

The Demon King, well aware that even with his trump cards, he had no chance of winning against the current Agushid, was quite self-aware.

In fact, the number that Agusid reported was beyond the Demon King's expectations.

His initial expectation was that Agushid might give out a number within five minutes.
He had even prepared to haggle over the price.

But now it seems...

That conversation just now helped me salvage some of my image in Agushid's eyes—

Hopefully, he will go easy on me in the upcoming battles.

That's all for tomorrow at noon.

The most powerful demon race did not choose to change it, and the time was set as is.

"I hope that by then you can have compiled all the methods related to 'resurrection' in detail."

Agushid slowly rose to his feet; this time, he was truly leaving.

After all, Vlame had been waiting for him there for almost ten minutes.

But before taking a step, the most powerful demon asked one last question.

"Oh, right, that old geezer—"

"Won't the method you mentioned, which relies on an artificial goddess monument, have any side effects?"

"For example, you might be cursed by that 'goddess' like she did."

The Demon King shook his head and denied it without any hesitation.

"Of course not... The method of 'coming back to life' is perfect."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have told you this so easily."

"The 'goddess' who created the world cursed me for other reasons."

He withdrew his gaze, completely turning away from the Demon King.

"That's good, I'll wait and see."

Without any further hesitation, Agushid turned and left in the direction of the hut.

The Demon King just stared at his back until he disappeared without shifting his gaze.

At that moment, he suddenly remembered a brief conversation he had with that person a long time ago.

-

"Humans and demons will coexist peacefully under the leadership of Agusid..."

"After you die—"

Recalling that voice and the vision of the future that I saw at that time...

The Demon King lowered his head and left Solitaire's body with a faint smile.
