"That was well done, Frey."
Damien praised Frey with a gentle tone, a stark contrast to their initial confrontations.
"It's my honor to ease your burdens."
"…"
Watching Frey's deanor, Carrion's eye twitched.
If the situation weren't so serious, he'd have blurted out, "Stop pretending, you old hag!"
"Hm?"
Suddenly, Frey shot Carrion a sidelong glance.
In an instant, Carrion felt as if he'd plunged into an icy abyss, imdiately clearing his mind and cursing inwardly at how terrifying a woman's intuition could be.
"Let's discuss our matters now."
Damien snapped his fingers, instantly transporting everyone to Carrion's palace.
Carrion wasn't surprised.
He'd already accepted that Damien's power far surpassed Frey's.
So, such a feat wasn't unexpected.
'Unexpected, my foot!'
'This is absurd!'
A Demon Lord Seed with 400,000 magicules, forcibly teleported without the slightest ability to resist or even react.
'As Frey said…'
'He looks young, but his strength far exceeds hers.'
Seeing Velzard's closeness with Damien, it was clear. A being who could ta a True Dragon, with their territories so close, the outco was inevitable.
Early submission would spare the Eurazania losses and preserve the Lycanthrope.
And if Frey was telling the truth…
"Sit."
"No, you should sit."
Carrion eyed the throne that was once his.
He wasn't clueless about social cues, especially with Frey signaling him from the side.
"Very well."
Damien didn't stand on ceremony, taking the seat of honor naturally.
Velzard and Frey flanked him, one on each side.
It wasn't ant to humiliate Carrion.
As a Demon Lord, one should display authority and dominance.
A shift in power, a change in status.
If Carrion still couldn't see that, it would prove he wasn't worth Damien's further attention.
Fortunately, Carrion, though rough around the edges, had a keen side.
At this point, he'd gained so clarity.
"Carrion of the Ten Great Demon Lords."
Carrion knelt on one knee, bowing his head to Damien. "I pledge to lead three million Lycanthrope and the Eurazania in service to you!"
"Indeed."
Damien smiled. "You won't regret today's decision, Carrion."
"Frey."
"Your orders, my lord."
"Explain to Carrion the benefits of joining the Monster Kingdom."
Damien added, "Base it on your package, but elevate it one tier."
"And you and the Fulbrosia can rge into the Monster Kingdom ahead of schedule."
Undoubtedly, Damien wasn't just raising the treatnt for the newly joined Eurazania but also rewarding the Fulbrosia and Frey for their contributions.
That wasn't the main point, though.
What truly thrilled Frey was Damien's final remark.
rging into the Monster Kingdom!
This ant Frey would secure a place by Damien's side!
"Thank you for your generosity. I and the Harpies will surely bring you greater honor."
Frey began explaining Damien's benefits to Carrion. "First, naming. All monsters joining the Monster Kingdom will receive a na from Lord Damien."
"What?"
Carrion had been wondering what kind of benefits could excite Frey so much.
Now, hearing this, he was dumbfounded.
"No way!"
"Hold on!"
"Naming everyone? Frey, are you serious?"
Carrion exclaid, "The Eurazania has at least three million Lycanthrope!"
That was a conservative estimate, excluding other monster races.
Otherwise, it could exceed five million.
Naming five million beings?
What kind of joke was that?!
How could that be possible?!
'Even if each na requires just 1,000 magicules, that's 5 billion magicules!'
Five billion magicules... did they think this was so hyperinflated currency?
That's equivalent to 10,000 Carrions plus 10,000 Lion King Spears!
And that didn't even account for B-rank or A-rank monsters.
If calculated fully, the magicule cost would exceed 10 billion!
"Carrion, don't judge Lord Damien's world by your ignorance."
Frey dropped a bombshell. "It's not just millions of monsters... you forgot to include my Fulbrosia's citizens."
"…"
The Eurazania plus the Fulbrosia... how many monsters would that be?
The thought alone terrified Carrion.
"I forgot to introduce myself."
Seated on what was once Carrion's throne, Damien slowly raised his hand. A galaxy swirled in his palm, displaying a miniature cosmos.
Damien said nothing, but the silent display struck Carrion with imnse awe.
At the sa ti, glimpses of Damien's origins and identity flashed through his mind.
"C-Creator God…"
Carrion knew little of Veldanava, only that it was a deity who created the Cardinal World.
But now, with a Dragon God before him, Carrion finally grasped the terrifying weight behind those sparse mythological tales.
'That galaxy… it's real…'
Most astonishing was the galaxy under Damien's control, as Carrion observed.
Undoubtedly, it contained a true world.
And such a world, Damien could create with a re gesture.
The sheer information overwheld Carrion's mind, nearly frying his thoughts.
'No wonder…'
'No wonder Frey lowered herself so much!'
Realizing this, Carrion felt genuine gratitude toward Frey.
This woman from his youth, even after rising to prominence, hadn't forgotten him and had pulled him up a second ti.
The first was when she helped him join the Demon Lord council as the ninth Demon Lord.
With this, Carrion owed Frey a debt he could hardly repay.
'Dragon God of Creation…'
Facing a creator deity, what pride could a re Demon Lord Seed, a king of Lycanthrope, possibly have?
Who doesn't live under the sky and stars?
Was this humiliating?
Carrion didn't think so. Having a sun above, a sky overhead... it wasn't unacceptable.
Yes, to Carrion, submitting to Damien was like basking in the grace of the sky and sun... an irresistible force.
