Devil Furtoril propped her face up on the couch in her room, frowning slightly.

The dim light reflected on her contemplative face with an unexpected sense of serene beauty.

She had blocked out Ilotia's mind now, and she needed a quiet environment to think things over.

Ilotia's advent was already known to the humans, which was equivalent to giving them time to make preparations to defend themselves against the demonic invasion.

However, the intention of not leaking the news about Ilotia's birth to humans was also just to defeat the human armies unawares in the initial battle.

In the face of the great power of Ilotia, giving humans time to prepare for defense hurts themselves,too.

It's just that Ilotia hasn't adjusted to her status yet, which is distressing to Furtoril.

She knew Ilotia was from another world, and she knew Ilotia was originally a male, but she didn't care about that. Now the first thing she was desperate for Ilotia to learn to kill.

But the first day of training seemed too hasty. And it was impossible to imagine that a stranger who had never exposed to killing would become hardened and calloused suddenly, which Furtoril knew it deeply. However, she couldn't help but feel angry at seeing how flabby Ilotia was.

At the end of the slaughter of Lamoron, Furtoril turned on Ilotia's auto-battle mode because she couldn't tolerate Ilotia’s weak battle mode. .

But she can't use auto-battle mode in a real war, because that state is to kill all creatures in the field of vision, except for the owner of Ilotia, which will kill even the demon soldiers by mistake.

It is even more impossible to let Ilotia go into battle alone. Even if Ilotia is powerful, she can't just fight against all enermies by herself.

Although that scene about Ilotia in automatic combat state pleased Furtoril, Furtoril was angry with Ilotia who had not been hardened and calloused in face of killing the enermies. So she strangled Ilotia to cause her coma.

But what Furtoril heard from Ilotia's heart that night calmed her down.

She understood that the child needed time to adapt, after all, she read the other side's heart, and the soul inside Ilotia was from a peaceful land in another world that had not experienced war at all.

So she had to take Ilotia to kill animals every day. Now Furtoril began to make Ilotia kill the animals first then to kill the humans later. This is how Furtoril planned it.

Thinking back today when she came back and gave Ilotia a demonstration of killing, she kill the magician who leaked the information without any hesitation with her cold expression.

The other party was just a mediocre officer in the second team of the magic army, just kill her and replace her with another one. In fact, her crime is not deadly, just Furtoril wants to show her brutality in front of Ilotia and let her get used to that kind of deadly scene first.

Furtoril was not originally a very brutal person, and as a child she was as kind and forgiving as her father and mother.

But everything has changed since her father and mother were defeated and killed by the brave humans. For the future of the demon race, she must become brutal and settle everything by war, not by negotiating and reconciling as weakly as her parents did.

Comfort made us lose the will to fight so that the army of the Demons, like a vulnerable paper tiger, was routed by the fierce attack of the humans in that war .

Since then Furtoril has turned into a new man with another character, no longer learning the ways of the previous demon king in governing the country.

Furtoril forced conscription constantly and forced training of the army.

Torture was inflicted on all those who resisted her, and punishment was imposed on all those who broke the law.

What Furtoril did has resulted in the scene that the people of the entire demon kingdom evaluated her as a vicious and brutal tyrant of one generation.

But she always remembered the wishes of her father and mother. So from the time she ascended the throne of the Demon King, she had an original plan in her mind.

And from the moment Ilotia was re-made, the first and most important step of the plan was finally taken.

"Knock, knock..."

A knock at the door pulled Furtoril out of her musing. Furtoril knew who it was that came knocking, for it was she who had summoned the other to come.

"Come in."

Furtoril only responded softly, and the person outside the door could hear it, for the other was the most powerful of the five generals of the demon race: Heath Relia, who was also Furtoril's playmate since childhood.

"Furtoril."

Heath Relia smiled as she opened the door and walked in, dressed in civilian clothes.

Her long purple hair was curled behind her slightly , her black horns tilted back slightly, her eyebrows less sharp than usual, and her purple skirt swayed in Heath Relia’s brisk walk.

Furtoril also loosened his tight frown at the sight of this person, and his iceberg-like expression melted, revealing a gentle smile.

Only when the two of them are alone do they become their true selves, and only in private does Heath Relia call the Demon King by her first name.

Heath Relia was the only one who knew that the Demon King was not really a brutal person, but she only made herself brutal by necessity.

"You killed Sara, didn't you?"

Heath Relia sat at the other end of the couch.

"Hmm. I heard the report too. Falling in love with a human is what caused Ilotia’s birth to leak out of her mouth. Now she has been beheaded."

The Demon King remembered the first time she had imposed tyranny, she had been as intolerant as Ilotia when she killed, but she was numb to it now. Therefore, she thought Ilotia would have done the same.

"It's no big deal, so what if we give them time to prepare for war, by the time Ilotia's domestication is complete, our army will be strong and invincible. "

Looking at Furtoril's look full of determination and fighting spirit, Heath Relia smiled slightly. It was only when Furtoril was with her or when Furtoril was alone by herself that Furtoril would take off his cold armor and turn back into the expressive little devil she was as a child.

"By the way, what is the state of Ilotia now?"

"Too much goodness and weakness in her character."

There is no interaction between Heath Relia and Ilotia, but after all, they are going to fight together in the future. Therefore, Heath Relia is still more or less concerned about Ilotia's affairs.

"Why don't you let me follow along and train with her?"

"No need. You have enough on your plate as it is."

Heath Relia smiled helplessly, and she didn't want Ilotia, who had been sacrificed with the lives of 10,000 demons and 10,000 human prisoners of war, to be an invalid either.

But the souls in the first two generations of Ilotia were all female, except this time it was a male. And it might be a little harder to train her to be a real murder weapon.

"Our army is ready to go." Heath Relia smiled faintly, "Just waiting for Ilotia to take shape."

Furtoril nodded. Although it was possible to launch an explosive warfare on the humans at any time now, that would sacrifice a lot of demon soldiers.
