In the world of Moe King, I became the ruler of ice.

Seeing the Pig-Headed Emperor's attack, Gransta instantly unleashed his domain skill, and his physical form also changed.

"【Extreme Cold Region】"

A biting wind swept across the battlefield, and snowflakes fell in droves, staining the blood-soaked battlefield white.

Each of these chaotic devouring forces seemed to carry a vengeful spirit that had been devoured, heading straight for Gransta.

Gransta's entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of ice crystal armor, exuding an incomparably domineering aura.

"【Ice Cut】"

A flash of cold light appeared, and these chaotic devouring forces seemed to have encountered their nemesis, being slashed and exploded, with miserable cries ringing out before finally dissipating into the air.

"The power of vengeful spirits combined with the ability to devour, huh? Pretty good ability, what a pity."

Gransta muttered something to himself, and then a second magic spell followed.

"【Ice Thorns】"

Ice thorns sprouted from the ground, tightly coiling around the Pig-Headed Emperor like ice snakes, and even with the power of devouring, they could not be severed.

The Pig-Headed Emperor's charging figure also stopped, continuing to tear and devour.

Gransta had long guessed that the Pig-Headed Emperor wanted to rely on his terrifying physical strength for close combat, and that the only chance the opponent could have of winning was the Glutton's terrifying devouring power.

Even if Gransta doesn't have the power to devour like Rimuru, he still has the power of the Overlord.

"The Overlord, analyzes the [Hunger] skill that controls the Pig-Headed Emperor."

"Received, currently analyzing for you..."

Thanks to the effect of the Ice Thorns, the Pig-Headed Emperor was temporarily kept in place, and the Overlord was mobilizing computing power to analyze the situation.

Even though Gransta's magic power far surpasses that of the Pig-Headed Emperor, it still takes some time to analyze a Demon King-level skill.

A moment later

"Lord Gransta, we have successfully analyzed whether to select [Imprison] the Pig-Headed Emperor's Devouring Ability."

Gransta's lips curled into a beautiful smile; the upgraded Overlord had indeed not disappointed him.

"Um."

Rimuru raised his hand and pinched a snowflake, remarking with emotion.

"Whenever Granstas gets serious, he always changes the location first. Hmm, the temperature's dropped again..."

On the other hand, Pighead Emperor originally wanted to use his physical strength to engage in close combat, but his opponent had already guessed his idea, and he couldn't get rid of the ice thorns no matter what he did.

at this time

A sudden feeling of weakness washed over him, and his power was draining away. The Pig-Headed Emperor tried to replenish his lost magic with his Devouring ability, but was horrified to discover that his greatest reliance, Devouring power, was unusable.

Why?

The Pig-Headed Emperor raised his head and looked directly at Gransta, where he saw a handsome elf looking at him with a half-smile.

"This power is from a completely different dimension..."

His eyes were filled with despair. Even though he had devoured the power of his own kind and the high-ranking demon Krumit, he couldn't even touch the hem of this man's clothes.

Gransta didn't care about the Pig-Headed Emperor's current mood; he simply shook his head, knowing that the Pig-Headed Emperor's claim of being a demon king was largely unfounded.

The only one who could probably beat him was that weakling, Clayman. Clayman's original plan was to cultivate and control a demon king from behind the scenes, but unfortunately...

The plan was ultimately doomed to fail.

"【Ice Burst】"

"Boom!"

The last glimmer of hope in the Pig-Headed Emperor's eyes was shattered along with the terrifying power of the ice explosion. Without the power of devouring, he was simply unable to withstand this attack, and even with his self-regeneration ability, there was nothing he could do.

Unless the Pig-Headed Emperor can regain [Frozen Resistance] and [Physical Immunity], hehe.

(This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible!)

Red Maru looked at the ice shards flying everywhere, and gazed at the back of his master, his eyes seemingly radiating a strange light.

Old Bai stroked his beard. This battle showed that Lord Gransta's strength was far above that of the Demon King.

"It is truly an honor for this old man to serve such a distinguished person!"

Rimuru was completely stunned.

"So fast! The Pig-Headed Emperor has no power to resist?"

Rimuru thought, "You finished the battle so quickly, where does that leave my pride? It's really embarrassing for the weaker one!"

Wait a minute! I hope I don't become the village's mascot!

It wasn't just Benimaru and the others who were shocked; even the usually proud female dragonman's mouth was agape, her beautiful face filled with disbelief.

"This gap..."

She even stole a glance at the resentful slime in Shion's arms, then withdrew her gaze without leaving a trace.

At the same time, I secretly made a decision in my heart.

On the other hand, as the residual power of the ice explosion gradually dissipated, a huge body was lying in a deep pit, its breath appearing extremely weak.

His whole body was injured to varying degrees, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, which quickly congealed into clumps at this extremely low temperature.

"Cough cough, I failed, our sins..."

Even when his life was in the most critical condition, the Pig-Headed Emperor was still thinking about his people.

If it weren't for the natural disaster, their people would have starved and simply waited to die. Yet their king couldn't act for the sake of his people, for the sake of his own children...

They had no choice but to invade the Great Forest of Jura, even if it meant becoming a pawn, a controlled demon king, he was willing to do it!

"Lord Gransta, the Pig-Headed Emperor has lost his will to fight and is terrified of your strength."

"You can choose either [Death Sentence] or [Domination]."

Upon hearing the prompt from the Overlord in his mind, Gransta put away his weapon.

"My Lord, what is the purpose of this [Fate Judgment]?"

The voice of the ruler then rang out again.

"After choosing [Sever Life], you can see the Pig-Headed Emperor's lifeline in the space and sever it at any time. Any creature whose lifeline has been severed will be unable to be resurrected by any means."

"Absolute death!"

Granstas inwardly gasped. The Overlord was indeed domineering, but he liked it.

In his mind, a dense array of threads immediately appeared, with one black thread being the thickest.

"Is this the Pig-Headed Emperor's lifeline? What about the others?"

"All creatures that are afraid of adults can have their lifelines seen, and can choose to sever or control them."

"I see! Then the other lifelines must belong to the pig-headed soldiers on the other side."

Gransta withdrew from the space in his mind and slowly walked to the side of the Pig-Headed Emperor.

The dense dark clouds slowly dispersed, and the gloomy sky seemed to be enveloped by a new life, with a ray of sunlight shining on Gransta.

He sighed.

"Pig-headed Emperor, I cannot forgive your sins."

The Pig-Headed Emperor struggled to open one eye and looked at Gransta.

"My sins are indeed unforgivable, but my people are innocent, and I am willing to bear the consequences..."
