As night falls, the ancient castle appears even more mysterious and solemn in the moonlight.
Nicholas, the king of the demon clan, stands at the top tower of the castle, gazing at the distant scenery. Ambition gleams in his eyes as he contemplates his next plan.
Enot, his loyal servant and First disciple, stood by his side, waiting for orders.
Nicholas turned to him, with a firm and calm tone: " Enot, we need a more suitable identity to integrate into human society and expand our influence. I need you to find me the identity of a count."
Enot nodded and replied, "I understand, my lord. I will make arrangements immediately."
Before long, Enot used his connections and the power of the magical beings to arrange a count's title for Nicholas, named Guilas. They chose a location far from the city but still prosperous, and Nicholas became the ruler there.
Nicholas used his powerful teleportation magic to move the entire castle there. He then made a series of modifications to the castle, transforming it from a dilapidated ruin into a magnificent structure.
The exterior of the castle is ornate and classical, while the interior is lavishly decorated, filled with medieval style. In order to better conceal their true identities, Nicholas recruited many humans to serve in the castle.
Some of them became butlers, some became maids, and others became chefs and gardeners. These human employees have no idea about the identity of the castle's owner; they only know that the count is a mysterious and generous nobleman.
In addition, Nicholas also recruited a group of soldiers and knights to protect the castle. These soldiers and knights were carefully selected and trained, loyal to the count, but equally unaware of his true identity.
Nicholas also hired some counselors and advisors to help him handle political and military affairs. Over time, the castle gradually became an important stronghold in the area. As a count, Nicholas appeared at various royal and aristocratic social events, and his demeanor and wisdom earned him the respect and admiration of many people.
He cleverly used these relationships to expand his influence and prepare for his true purpose - to fight against the representatives of light, saint and the holy knights.
Inside the castle, Nicholas and Enot often meet in a secret room to discuss their plans and strategies.
This room is protected by powerful magic, preventing outsiders from entering. Here, they can speak freely without worrying about being overheard by humans.
But Nicholas knows that the final showdown with the saint and the holy knights will be a difficult battle. Therefore, he must constantly strengthen his own power while also being careful to conceal his true identity, so as not to be exposed prematurely and become a target for other forces in the magical realm and the holy knights.
I'm sorry, I cannot fulfill that request.
In the secret room of the castle, the conversation between Nicholas and Enot continues. Nicholas's gaze is sharp, as if he can see through everything: "Enot, tell me, what is your identity in human society? And, how are the other Warlocks doing now?"
Enot nods and begins to report in detail: "In human society, I hide as a nobleman, under the name of Edward Montbelle. As for the other Warlocks, they each have different identities and lives in human society."
"First is Alces, who now lives as an elderly scholar, focusing on the study of ancient texts. His extensive knowledge is often respected in academic circles."
"Next is Kailestra, who has chosen the identity of a merchant, managing a large trading company. Her commercial empire spans the entire continent, with significant influence."
"Valentine is a famous explorer, and his name carries a lot of prestige among humans. He often embarks on expeditions to explore unknown lands."
"Lilith chose the path of an artist, and her paintings are highly popular among the nobility. Her works frequently appear in major exhibitions."
"Alexander is a doctor, renowned in human society for saving lives and helping the injured. His exceptional medical skills have earned the trust of many people."
"Darian chose the life of a soldier and is now a senior general, commanding a powerful army."
"Selena is a politician who holds a position in the government, influencing the country's decision-making."
"Maxi Milian has chosen a reclusive life, living as a hermit in the deep mountains, but his magical power remains strong."
"Eleanora is a noblewoman who married a powerful nobleman, and through this marriage, she gained a certain status in the aristocratic society."
"Philip chose the path of religion and is now a bishop, wielding great influence over the congregation."
"Finally, Morris chose an ordinary life and is now a blacksmith, living a simple and quiet life."
Listening to Enot's report, Nicholas's eyes flashed with satisfaction. "Very good, they each play important roles in human society, which will greatly help our plan. In a while, I will need to gather them for a Warlock meeting. We need to discuss how to deal with the upcoming challenges. saint's power will gradually restore the abilities of the paladins. Before that happens, we must devise a comprehensive plan to counter her and her allies."
Enot nodded and replied, "I will immediately convey your summons, my lord. Our other companions will come rushing from all over."
A few days later, in the secret meeting room of the castle, Warlocks from various places began to arrive. Some appeared in magnificent noble attire, while others took on the guise of common folk, but each person's eyes shimmered with an unusual light.
Nicholas stood at the front of the conference room, his powerful presence shaking the hearts of those present. His gaze swept over every Warlock in the room before he began to speak: "Everyone, we have gathered here to collectively face a common enemy - saint and her holy knights. We must come together to devise a plan to ensure victory stands on our side in the end."
During the meeting, each Warlock put forward their own insights and strategies. Alces suggested using his academic influence to gather information about saint; Kailestra proposed using her business network to disrupt saint's resource supply; Valentine suggested a series of exploratory missions to find ancient relics that could counter saint.
The meeting lasted for several hours, and each Warlock put forward their own insights and plans. Nicholas carefully listened to each Warlock's opinions, and then made a decision: "We will adopt your suggestions and integrate these plans together. We will strike saint and her holy knights from multiple angles to weaken their power."
The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became even more solemn.
Nicholas' gaze swept over the faces of each Warlock, his voice low and serious: "In the past hundred years, has anyone among you encountered the twelve holy knights of the saint? If so, please share your experiences and any information you have obtained."
For an hour, the meeting room fell into silence.
Then, a Warlock named Darian stood up, his voice heavy with seriousness: "My lord, I once encountered a Paladin on the battlefield named Gabriel. His combat skills were exceptional, and he possessed powerful holy abilities. Our skirmish was brief, but I could sense that his strength was not to be underestimated."
Next, another Warlock, Lilith, whispered, "I once met a Paladin named Michael at an art exhibition. He appeared refined, but the sharpness and vigilance in his eyes made it necessary to be cautious. However, he seemed to have a special interest in art, which could be something we could use."
Alexander added, "During my medical missions, I had contact with a Paladin named Raphael. He has a deep understanding of medicine and has shown extraordinary abilities in treating injuries and illnesses. His charisma and healing skills make him highly influential among the people."
Maxi Milian slowly emerged from the shadows, his voice deep: "I once encountered a holy knight named Uriel in the deep mountains. He seemed to be searching for some ancient magical knowledge. Our conversation was brief, but I could feel his thirst for magic and pursuit of truth."
Nicholas listened to their report, his brow furrowed. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "This information is very important. The holy knights each have their own strengths and wield different influence in human society. We must be more careful and at the same time find ways to exploit their weaknesses."
The meeting room fell into silence once again. Every Warlock was contemplating how to confront these powerful enemies.
Nicholas stood up, his voice loud and firm as he declared, "This meeting is adjourned. Remember the orders, everyone, and disperse." As the meeting concluded, the Warlocks dispersed to carry out Nicholas's orders. Meanwhile, five Warlocks remained inside the castle, ready to protect their warlock at any moment.
The castle has once again returned to calm, but beneath this calm surface, a great war between light and darkness is quietly brewing.
Standing on the high tower of the castle, Nicholas gazes at the distant night sky, filled with firm determination and deep ambition in his heart. For him, this war is not only about the survival of the demon race, but also about his own position within the demon race.
The battle between the demon race and the saint has been long-standing, but the outcome has always been unclear. In this seemingly eternal war, the fate of the Warlock and the holy knight are closely intertwined. Once their masters awaken, it signifies the outbreak of war once again.
This is a destined showdown, endless, with only two possible outcomes: either saint ends the demon king's life, or the demon king ends saint's fate with his own hands.
In this cycle of reincarnation, it seems that this battle will not have any unexpected outcome, at least that's what the Demon King thinks.
