People are on the Ark, assisting Oma Zi-O

"Are you okay with that thing? I can feel it, the twisted malice so vast it's enough to drown and burn the world."

Although it was malicious, Gates could clearly feel that it was not pure evil. Compared to "all the evil in this world" that was once accepted and absorbed into the body by the Ark, this maliciousness was more like a trial.

Or can it be said that it is contradictory love?

"Don't underestimate me, Gates. You followed me back then, and you understand. I'm a knight of ultimate evil who can easily absorb 'all the evil in this world.' This 'chaotic evil' is exactly what I'm most compatible with."

"The Evil Knight or something like that, it just sounds like some middle school boy who takes ignorance as his rebellious belief. I don't understand you two."

When Gates said this, he glanced at Tokiwa Sougo who was sitting on the throne. The latter touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly. After all, it seemed that he was the one who really gave Ark the name "Evil Knight".

However, the other party's magnanimity, which is enough to accommodate the malice of an entire civilization, is truly remarkable. He is worthy of being the one chosen by this king.

"Demon Lord, I have thought of one last wish."

"Oh? Have you thought about it? So what is it?"

"Send me to my favorite world, where I want to spend my retirement in peace."

"this one?"

"if not?"

Tokiwa Sougo looked at Fang Zhou and touched his smooth chin, then seemed to sense something and suddenly showed a profound smile.

"Properly placing meritorious officials is what I, as a king, should do. Doesn't it seem like I'm being derelict in my duty as king to offer this as a wish?"

"Huh? Then what do you want? You were the one who asked me to make a wish. This is what I want most right now. It's so easy for you. You just waved your hand and sent me away. You should be happy. Why did you choose it?"

Fang Zhou hugged his chest and stared at Tokiwa Sougo with dead eyes in confusion.

A worker who has completed his mission voluntarily wants to resign and does not want severance pay, but the boss insists on giving it to him. This is the most magical thing Fang Zhou has ever heard.

"Haha, in that case, why don't you do me one last favor? I'll temporarily give you this wish on credit. After you do this favor, how about paying me back with two wishes at once?"

"What? What's this? Retirement and reemployment, right? Didn't we agree on retirement?"

"If you don't take your retirement allowance, you're not retired. Okay, here you go."

Complex space-time disturbances were released from Tokiwa Sougo's body. Tsukuyomi and Gates beside Fang Ark immediately widened their eyes. Even Fang Ark was so shocked that he stood there in a daze.

This scene, wait, Tokiwa, you're not...

A white space-time drive appeared in Tokiwa Sougo's hand, along with a ZI-O dial. However, compared to Tokiwa Sougo's own and other space-time drives, this space-time drive had golden cross lines on it, making it look like a deluxe PLUS version of a normal space-time drive.

But for Tsukuyomi, Gates, and Ark, who had been with Oma Zi-O for a long time, those golden lines were not just simple decorations, they were clearly...

"The power of the devil? Sougo, are you serious?"

Gates' voice was a little out of tune and his expression became distorted.

He could not understand why Tokiwa Sougo would give away his most important power of Oma?

"It's just a small part. Once the history of the Knights returns to normal, it will slowly recover. Ark, take it."

With a light push of his palm, the space-time driver flew up by itself and fell into Fang Zhou's hand. When it fell into his hand, a small part of the demonic power condensed on the driver flowed into Fang Zhou's body.

"This is……"

"The last favor I want you to do me is to create a demon king."

Silence, for a moment silence filled the space.

"Tokiwa Sougo, are you serious?"

Looking at the Oma Space-Time Driver in his hand, Fang Zhou naturally understood what Tokiwa Sougo meant.

To create a demon king.

Do you just want him to create a new Oma Zi-O?

"Demon King, you have to give us a reason."

Even Gates once again called Tokiwa Sougo the Demon King, his eyes fixed on the latter, causing the latter to lean his body against the back of the throne unconsciously, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"One person's power is ultimately limited. We understood this truth a long time ago."

Tokiwa Sougo's expression was slightly complicated.

"But this crisis has made me realize that even the power of the collective has its limits. Gates, how much do you think I have done in this crisis? How much have you done?"

"This one……"

Tokiwa Shougo shook his head.

"I've already done everything I can to hold the universe together and prevent the disaster from spreading further, and you've already been stretched thin trying to maintain order in a world in chaos..."

He suddenly looked up, a gleam of light in his eyes.

"What if this disaster could have been prevented in the first place?"

"What do you mean?"

"If one Oma Zi-O can stop the disaster from spreading further, then two Oma Zi-O, or even three Oma Zi-O, can they restore everything to its original state right at the beginning of the disaster, rather than relying on more than ten years of effort to restore everything and then continue to invest energy to restore everything to its original state."

"So you're going to create more Oma Zi-O?"

Tokiwa Sougo nodded and smiled.

"Yes."

"Aren't you afraid that another Oma Zi-O will threaten your position as king?"

"As a king, you must be brave enough to accept the challenge of another king."

Gates couldn't bear the headache when he saw the bright and shining eyes of Tokiwa Sougo.

"What a willful king."

A calm voice sounded from beside him.

"Hey, Woz. How's it going? Any thoughts on my decision?"

A tall figure walked past Fang Zhou, and while passing by, he glanced at the Demonic Space-Time Driver in Fang Zhou's hand without revealing any expression.

"Since this is the decision of His Majesty the Demon King, as a subject, I naturally support it. Lord Fang Zhou, you have already accepted the responsibility of assisting the new king. Therefore, I will give this book to you as a gift for taking office."

"What? What's with what?"

He took the large book with the "Demon Advent Calendar" printed on it from Woz's hand. Wasn't this Woz's precious history book? Although he had torn it once before, it was later repaired by the power of history and became the "New Demon Advent Calendar". Why was it given to him now?

"This is a new, blank book. It's not a plan book, but a record book. You can use this book to record new history. I also have this one here, which is used to record the rebirth of the world under the rule of His Majesty the Demon King."

As he spoke, Woz took out another book with the words "New Devil's Advent Calendar" written on it.

Ah, Woz, how much do you like this book?

Everyone present looked at Wozniak and his book with strange eyes.

"Wait, Demon King."

Seeing that he had suddenly taken on an incredible job without even agreeing to it, Fang Zhou hurriedly spoke up to stop these guys from continuing to talk to themselves.

"What's wrong, Ark? Don't you want to go?"

Tokiwa Sougo looked towards the Ark.

"...It's not that I don't want to go. I'm already used to working for you anyway. Oh, forget it. I'm kindhearted after all. Who is the demon king I want to become? You have to tell me a goal."

Fang Zhou accepted the task as a final request from his friend.

"do not know."

"What?"

Ark, Gates and Tsukuyomi all looked at Tokiwa Sougo in shock, but Wozniak looked calm and composed.

"It's your freedom to choose whoever you want to support as your king. I trust your choice. Of course, even if you use him for yourself and become the new Oma Zi-O, I have no objection. I'd rather be happy to see this ending. After all, protecting the world with someone you know is much easier than starting over with someone you don't know."

Fang Zhou shook his head when he heard this.

"Never mind, never mind. I admit that Oma Zi-O's power is particularly tempting, but I know myself well. I don't have the talent of a king, nor do I have the magnanimity a king should have. Allowing someone like him to possess the power of a king would only be a cancer to the world."

Fang Ark's words made Tokiwa Sougo shake his head. Fang Ark was a good person in every way except for his self-deprecating nature. After working together for such a long time, Tokiwa Sougo had a clear understanding of Fang Ark's abilities.

However, there is no need to force the other party since they are unwilling.

"Since I'm the one choosing the candidates, which world should I go to? There has to be a range."

"I don't know."

"what?"

Fang Zhou had an expression on his face that said, "Are you kidding me?"

This time even Woz was a little overwhelmed, but relying on the basic qualities of a subject, he managed to keep his expression unchanged and stood beside Fang Zhou with a calm look.

"You decide which world you want to go to and which candidates to select. Then I will send you there."

What a willful king.

Fang Zhou held his forehead.

Although we have been working together for such a long time and have a certain degree of understanding of Sougo Tokiwa's human character, it is still true that I find it difficult to accept every time.

"Do I get to choose?"

This means that I can choose the world and characters I like to help me become king. This is really a difficult problem that tests human nature.

"That's right, but even though you get to choose the king and the world, it won't work if the person you choose doesn't have the approval of the Oma Power."

"what?"

Looking at Sougo Tokiwa's smiling face, Fang Zhou suddenly wanted to punch him.

Byd, isn't it you who decides whether or not to get approval? You say I choose, but in the end, I still have to pass your test, right?

Fang Zhou, too lazy to argue with the cheating Demon King, could only think about what kind of world needed the power of the Demon King, and who had the qualifications to become the king and was most likely to be recognized by the power of the Demon King.

Fang Zhou thought about it, looking at the Oma Zi-O Driver in his hand, and suddenly the figure of a girl appeared in his mind.

Wang, your identity is very suitable for that child, but the child herself has extremely lofty ideals. Wouldn’t it be too heavy to put this responsibility on her shoulders?

But if someone becomes Oma Zi-O, all the problems in that world will be solved under the power of Oma. Thinking about it this way, it is a very good choice. Well, let's go there, and as for that child, she will be the candidate. After all, she doesn't have to come. As for the qualifications to become a king, there are many people in that world. After all, it is a place known as the cesspool of human politics. It is in line with the historical trend to have a few strong men and women falling from the sky, right?

"From the looks of it, have you decided which world you want to go to?"

"Think about it."

"Then go ahead."

A door spanning time, space, and the world opened behind the Ark, which turned around without hesitation and walked towards the colorful nothingness.

"I forgot to remind you."

"what?"

Fang Zhou turned his head, and his eyes met Tokiwa Sougo's gaze, which had become serious at some point.

"When the king's selection is finalized, the future will also be determined at the same time. Fang Zhou, never underestimate the power of the future."

Chapter 3: I woke up from my deathbed, and the doctor turned out to be me.

boom!

A deafening roar suddenly came from the dusty and long-uninhabited laboratory.

That was the sarcophagus located in the center of the laboratory. It was currently surrounded by a large number of experimental equipment. However, judging from the thickness of the dust around it and the dim indicator lights on the equipment, it was clear that these devices were probably abandoned here when the laboratory was abandoned.

"Cough cough."

A sudden coughing sound came from inside the sarcophagus, which was very creepy in this dim and cold environment.

If there were someone here, they might have been frightened by the cough and their hair would have stood on end.

"Damn Demon King, you actually kicked me right over here. Wait, why is it so narrow in here? Fortunately, it's dark. Wait, this shape... wok, coffin!"

With a scream, Fang Zhou groped around in the small environment around him.

"Damn it, didn't the Demon King say he would give me a better identity? A better identity is one that's in a coffin, right? Wok, I won't be turned into some old blood demon monster that never appears in the world, will I?"

Fang Zhou thought half-jokingly in his heart, his eyes flashed, and the originally dim environment gradually became bright in his eyes.

Compared to a wooden coffin, this material is more like... stone? No, not just stone, but some kind of composite mineral with metal components.

Are these... refrigeration circuits? At this power, the human body's metabolism can enter a state of not stopping but extremely slow in a low-temperature environment. In short, it's like hibernation. There are also nutritional supplement devices around it, allowing the frozen person to maintain the minimum nutritional level required for survival...

Wait, this configuration...
