Aurora's powerful aura erupted, shocking the assembled Demonkind.

(PS: Avrora's second personality will be called Aurora from now on!)

They hadn't expected the twelfth candidate body to possess such strength.

Aurora began absorbing the other candidates.

Within moments, the process was complete.

Rumble!

As the last body was absorbed, a wave of magic power washed over Itogami Island, knocking all the ordinary humans unconscious.

Aurora's power had reached Super Devil-level.

Even Roy hadn't anticipated such a dramatic increase.

After a long moment, Aurora finally retracted her aura. She lifted her chin haughtily and approached Roy.

Roy watched her with amusement, wondering what she was planning. Was she going to challenge him?

Her next action, however, surprised him.

"Thank you, Master!" Aurora bowed deeply, her arrogant demeanor replaced by a subservient one.

Roy was stunned. What was she doing? Changing her attitude so quickly?

It turned out—

Although Aurora hadn't emerged before, she was fully aware of Roy's overwhelming power.

She had no intention of rebelling.

Her actions were simply a declaration of dominance—a way of showing that she was the strongest among his servants.

Essentially, it was a display of—affection.

Roy, understanding her intentions, chuckled.

"Alright, get up."

"Yes, Master!" Aurora obeyed instantly.

"It's inconvenient for you and Avrora to share a body. I'll create a new one for you later. Discuss it with Avrora," Roy said with a smile.

Aurora's eyes lit up, then she nodded. "Yes, Master!"

If she could get rid of Avrora and have this powerful body all to herself, she would be overjoyed.

"The Feast of Flames is concluded. You're all dismissed."

Roy, not bothering with the Demonkind any further, left the hall with the girls.

The Demonkind breathed a collective sigh of relief once they were gone.

They hadn't dared to speak or even breathe too loudly in his presence, afraid of angering the Demon Lord.

"He's terrifying. He truly is a Demon Lord."

"I almost suffocated. I couldn't even breathe."

"He casually summoned all the other Fourth Primogenitor candidates. That's insane."

"We came here to see a joke, but it seems the joke's on us."

"I wonder how the other factions will react, especially the Three Primogenitors Empires."

——

The Demonkind murmured amongst themselves.

Then, a piece of news shocked them into silence.

The First Primogenitor of the Warlord's Domain, Ki Juranbarada, was dead—annihilated, leaving no trace behind.

The Demonkind were stunned.

They had initially dismissed Roy's earlier warning about the consequences of not handing over the Primogenitor candidates.

Now, they understood. The factions that hadn't complied had been destroyed.

The Demon Lord had casually annihilated the First Primogenitor and his forces from across a vast distance.

Such power was terrifying.

A new title for Roy emerged among the Demonkind: The Demon God—a Demon Lord with God-like Power.

——

Meanwhile.

Back in the upper levels of the castle, Aya approached Roy.

"Roy, now that the Feast of Flames is over, it's time to fulfill our dream, right?"

Seeing her eagerness, Roy chuckled.

"You promised to help me achieve my dream," Aya insisted.

Roy, no longer teasing her, nodded. "Yes, I did. But we need to wait a little longer."

"Wait for what?" Aya asked, confused.

"For the other two Primogenitors' reactions, of course."

"Two Primogenitors?" Aya glanced at the Fourth Primogenitor. Weren't there four?

Just then, Natsuki and Yukari also received the news.

"What?! The First Primogenitor is dead?!" Natsuki exclaimed.

The girls' attention immediately shifted to her.

They were puzzled. True Ancestors, especially Primogenitors, were practically immortal. How could one die?

After hanging up, Natsuki turned to Roy.

"You did this, didn't you?" Her tone was accusatory, yet also laced with a hint of awe.

Only Roy possessed the power to casually kill a True Ancestor.

The other girls looked at him with a mixture of shock and admiration.

When did this happen? Roy had killed a Primogenitor?

"That's right," Roy confirmed with a shrug. "Now, you all don't have much time left in this world. I'll be taking you with me soon. So, if there's anything you haven't done yet, go do it."

Hearing that they were leaving, the girls' attention shifted.

"Leaving? Are we going to onii-chan's world?"

"I feel a bit…sad."

"This world has finally become peaceful."

——

Nagisa, Asagi, and the others didn't want to leave. They had friends and family in this world.

Nagisa had her parents and grandmother, while Asagi had her older sister.

——

"Don't worry, I'll create a portal between the two worlds. You can visit anytime," Roy reassured them.

The portal solved their concerns.

Meanwhile.

The Second Primogenitor, "Fall Gazer" Aswad-Guul Aziz, the ruler of "Dynasty of Destruction" in the North American Empire, a female vampire with purple hair and red eyes.

And the Third Primogenitor, "Chaos Bride" Giada Kukulcan, ruler of "Chaos Zone"—

Upon learning of Ki Juranbarada's death, they were terrified. The more immortal a being, the more they feared death.

Knowing that the First Primogenitor had been effortlessly annihilated, they were filled with dread.

Learning that the Demon Lord of Itogami Island was responsible, they both set off for the island, intending to apologize and offer their submission.

——

Roy kept the remaining two of the Lion King Organization's Three Saints, Koyomi and Shirona, with him.

But when they learned of Roy's plan to transform all Demonkind into humans, they were shocked.

"What?! You're going to turn all Demonkind into ordinary people?"

Koyomi and Shirona couldn't believe it. Was such a thing even possible?

But remembering how Roy had casually annihilated the First Primogenitor from across a vast distance, they were inclined to believe him.

"That's right. I'm keeping you two here to ask: Will you follow me, or return to the Lion King Organization as Three Saints?" Roy asked with a smile.

Koyomi and Shirona exchanged glances. They understood the gravity of the situation.

If all Demonkind became human, the power structure of the world would be completely overturned.

The Lion King Organization might not even survive.

And if they returned, they would likely become ordinary humans as well.

They fell into deep thought.

Yukari, nestled in Roy's arms, felt a pang of relief. She didn't have to make such a difficult choice.

She had once hated men, but now she understood the benefits of having a powerful man to rely on.

Even Roy hadn't expected Yukari to become so clingy after he "conquered" her.

She was always looking for an opportunity to be intimate.

After a long moment.

Koyomi and Shirona finally made their decision.

"We will follow you, Demon Lord-sama! But we have one condition…" they said in unison.

"Oh? What is it?" Roy sipped his tea, ready to agree unless their request was unreasonable.

"We want the Lion King Organization to follow you as well," Koyomi said, adjusting her glasses.

"Alright, but no men. Only girls. Understand?" Roy readily agreed. He wouldn't refuse an entire organization of girls, but he had to set some ground rules.

"Don't worry, most members of the Lion King Organization are female," Koyomi assured him. His condition was expected.

"Good. Go make the arrangements," Roy said, waving his hand dismissively.

Koyomi and Shirona left to prepare. They didn't have much time.

That afternoon.

Nagisa asked Roy to accompany her to visit her mother, Mimori Akatsuki.

Since they were leaving this world soon, she wanted to say goodbye.

Roy agreed.

They set off for Nagisa's home.

Roy had some vague memories of Nagisa's mother.

Mimori Akatsuki was the head researcher of the MAR (Magna Ataraxia Research) medical department.

She was a licensed clinical magic physician, using medical-related psionic abilities for diagnosis and treatment.

She had also taken over a guest room at the research facility, turning it into her personal space, which was always messy.

She had no qualms about harassing other women and was known for her eccentric personality and lack of domestic skills.

And if he remembered correctly, she had been divorced for four years.

A bold idea suddenly formed in Roy's mind!

——

Ding-dong!

Nagisa rang the doorbell.

The door opened.

"Nagisa, you're home!" Mimori exclaimed, hugging her daughter.

Then, she noticed Roy and paused.

While the Demon Lord's name had spread, Mimori, as a human and a mere doctor, was unaware of the supernatural world.

She didn't recognize Roy. And since she rarely came home, she didn't know that Nagisa had moved out.

"And who is this?" she asked, looking at Roy curiously.

Nagisa blushed. "Mom, this is—my Master."

"What?!"

Mimori's cheerful demeanor vanished, replaced by anger. It was because of Nagisa's father—Gajou, taking Nagisa and Kojou to that dangerous place four years ago that she had divorced him.

Nagisa had told her about the servant contract.

But she hadn't expected the person who had formed the contract with Nagisa to actually appear.
