Carster simply couldn't understand this sudden turn of events.

But based on his years of experience in the Devil King Tomb, he quickly realized one thing.

This Little Succubus gained the approval of a certain demon king and could begin to control the demon king's Magic Power, which is why she instantly became several times stronger!

But Carster couldn't understand it.

How did Dekan manage to contact any of the Demon Kings in the Devil King Tomb within the isolated illusionary space?!

However, just as Carster was shocked and pondering...

Dekan, as if he had spotted Carster, turned sideways and looked at him disdainfully.

He slowly raised his eyes.

"Continue? Keep me locked up."

Beneath those golden pupils lay a bottomless abyss of extreme cold, yet also a sacred flame that burned eternally.

The gaze, seemingly able to pierce through Carster's soul, instilled in him an instinctive fear!

It was an absolute sense of oppression from those in power!

And what could bring him this sense of oppression?

He knew it all too well.

Only the Demon King!

Although the Little Succubus in the illusion still looks the same as before.

But Carster was certain that this demon was now a completely different being.

It's like being possessed!

And possessing her...

Carster thought of an answer, but dared not say it aloud.

"You! No, who are you?!"

He could only tremble as he asked.

"Heh, you already have the answer in your heart, don't you? You derelict tomb-guarding demon, what were you doing when he destroyed my tombstone?"

Dekan's voice grew colder, but it concealed a barely suppressed, frenzied rage.

Dekan then glanced around, his expression growing even more displeased.

Carster was terrified and broke out of the illusion that had trapped Dekan as quickly as possible.

This illusion had little reason to exist.

And having confirmed that the will before him belonged to the Demon King, Carster dared not continue to offend him.

Although the exact mechanism by which the Demon King is resurrected is unknown.

But now there's only one answer.

Previously, when Dekan was humiliating the Devil King Tombstone, he had excessive contact with Devil King Tombstone.

What the jailer didn't expect was that this Devil King Tombstone not only contained the demon king's will, but also sealed away a fragment of his soul.

This remnant soul of the demon king possesses some unknown magical techniques.

So the demon king found an opportunity and possessed the jailer's body.

This must also be the reason why Dekan in the illusionary realm was able to suddenly gain the Demon King's approval and receive the Demon King's Magic Power blessing!

Judging from the degree of blessing Dekan received.

The mark of this demon king did not seem to have been left untouched for a long time, and this demon king himself must have been extremely powerful in life to leave such a contingency plan and to give this body such a powerful boost.

Carster wanted to ask which of the two graves had just been dug up by this vengeful spirit.

But he didn't dare ask.

Such an offense could very well ruin him.

Even though this resurrected demon king is using the enhanced body of a jailer, he has only temporarily reached the seventh level.

However, if the one controlling the body is the Demon King herself, it's impossible to determine how many other Demon Kings' support she can gain!

It's quite possible that all she needs to do is touch the Altar to gain the help of all the other Demon Lords from past generations, and then give her more Demon Lord Magic Power to kill this negligent Jailer!

Dekan seemed to have seen through Carster's concerns.

With a slight, mocking smile, he coldly addressed Carster:

"Although you deserve to die, you are still useful. If you assist me, you can atone for your sins."

He stood there, showing no intention whatsoever of touching the Altar to gain more power.

"Please speak."

"Carster said in a deep voice."

He couldn't take the initiative to attack the jailer on this level. Even if he did manage to trap the demon king possessing the jailer now, once the jailer's magic power gave out, the enraged demon king would surely inflict the cruelest punishment upon him.

While things still seem to be turning around, obeying this demon king is undoubtedly the only optimal solution at present.

Dekan nodded.

Very well, you've fooled this bastard.

He dared not seek the help of the demon kings of past generations at the Altar.

Because the Master is not a demon king who exists in this cemetery according to the rules, nor is he a demon king known to any demon king in this cemetery.

To the other demon lords, Dekan now possessed all the characteristics of a demon lord.

But he's just an imposter who came from who-knows-where.

Once you come into contact with the Altar, not only will you not gain power, but the fact that Dekan is a "fake demon king" will likely be exposed.

Even if Carster is still unable to attack him at that time.

But they will do everything in their power to hinder and interfere with him using troublesome illusions.

Dekan didn't want to waste half a day being locked in the Illusory Space by Carster again.

Now, there's only one thing Dekan needs to do.

He needs to find a way to remove all the Devil King Tombstone in the cemetery before Carster discovers the truth.

At that time, this council-style Devil King Tomb will only have Master as the sole "fake councilor".

It will also become a true dictatorship!

The demonic Magic Power that can completely dominate this level.

Therefore, Dekan's plan.

It's about portraying a "vengeful spirit who has temporarily possessed a prison guard."

Then they thoroughly fooled Carster!

Dekan shook his head dismissively at Carster's fearful expression.

"Carster, you should know what having my grave dug up means to me, right?"

Under Dekan's gaze, Carster felt immense torment.

He didn't know whether to answer the question or not.

His lips trembled, but he dared not utter the answer.

Because anything I say would be offensive.

The demon king who had his grave dug up was truly pitiful!

How can they possibly maintain their reputation after this?!

"No need to answer, but please think about this: if you were me, what could you do to avoid becoming one of only two laughingstocks among all the Demon Kings of all time?"

Dekan continued to scrutinize Carster and asked.

"..."

Carster couldn't think of a solution; the demon king, whose grave had been desecrated, could no longer salvage his reputation.

You've become a laughingstock.

Carster thought to himself.

Etc.

Carefully consider the wording of Dekan's statement just now.

It seems there really is a way?

The focus seems to be not on the "joke," but rather on the "only two"?

If everyone becomes a laughing stock, then comparatively speaking, the two demon kings whose graves were dug up won't seem so bad, right?

"You, you don't mean to...?!"

Seeing the "this kid is teachable" look written all over Dekan's face, Carster was so startled that he took two steps back.

The demon king before us is thinking of something extremely dangerous!

Moreover, they want to drag him down with them!
