Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter



"What makes you think that, Lord?" Fiain asked curiously, not understanding how Benimaru could make such an affirmative assumption.

Benimaru explained, without turning his head. "Isn't it very obvious? A tsunami washing over a city can gather your most hated friends together and force you to stay in the same room as them. Now, a disaster is coming, so my best possible shelter can be the city we will be helping them conquer. How can anyone let go of the land that you worked hard to conquer? You do not know if you can have that chance in the future."

Ragnar and Fiain nodded their heads in acknowledgement, totally admiring Benimaru's wisdom. 

Benimaru just giggled at their reverent expression toward him. 

They might look old, but their mentality wasn't, and Benimaru was sure of it. Because he knew that some of the people who have sharp minds would have caught up on it easily. 

'I am stuck with babies, but with ones that can be considered bombs.' Joking to himself, Benimaru decided to close his eyes and cultivate his magic realm.

But at that moment, Ragnar asked. "Lord, if we try to destroy the city, won't the powerhouses of the humans come to stop us?"

"I do not think that is possible." Benimaru shook his head, denying. He had also thought of it before, but after some careful thinking and research, he found out the answer to his worry. "If strong humans kill demons weaker than them, it might lead to all-out war. These two races hate each other to their bones, so they want to kill one another more than anything they desire. But if they wantonly killed other races weak people by using stronger powerhouses, it would lead to mass genocide. It might also cripple an entire race."

"So, you can say they won't interfere where the power level in this type of war is balanced. And their interference is less now because of the Purge. I am sure they are worried about defending their own fortresses from getting invaded by a cruel demon." 

"Oh." Ragnar felt he knew more about the world than usual. This also bred some thoughts in his mind that might come to fruition in the future.

Finally, with peace of mind, Benimaru went into deep cultivation. 'I have to get stronger and be sure of this victory. I hope two weeks are enough.

"WHAT!?" Okarino shot up from his chair and yelled in shock.

The guard before him felt his heart sink into the abyss as he had to face Okarino in his state of anger.

"How can this be?" Okarino rubbed his forehead, thinking of what might have happened. "He was my most trained spy. He had abilities that could hide his presence and items that could make his energy traces disappear. How can he be discovered? Only the monster in the…wait, if they also have people like those guys, then this is troubling."

After some careful consideration, Okarino firmed his heart and decided to implement what he came here for. "Tell everyone to stand by their position and be ready, we will strike the moment the city is getting invaded by the demons."

"Yes, sir." The guard quickly left to deliver this message to every squad that was hiding in the city.

All alone in his room as usual, Okarino pondered. 'This is indeed a problem in my plan. I just hope you do not side with my enemy.'

Strongly clenching his fist, Okarino said, eyes filled with conviction. "Or I will have to crush everything by force."

…

Two weeks passed by in the blink of an eye. 

At first, the citizens and adventurers were living their lives peacefully, without any issues on their minds. But as time went on, they started to feel the heavy atmosphere that was looming over their city.

Soldiers from the royal army could be seen patrolling heavily from time to time, and they could also see a few people getting into conflict with them. However, they not only saw soldiers but also many suspicious looking people in strange outfits. 

This gloomy and tense atmosphere signaled the city was about to welcome its once-in-a decade crisis, and it wasn't that far away.

Migotanie City was about to welcome its new day as the sun was about to peek its head out of the horizon, but unfortunately for them, it wasn't the first sunlight that woke them up from their sleep today.

"Well, let's begin the show, shall we?" Inside Heaven's High, Benimaru was sitting on his tool behind the counter. 

He was currently dressed in his Slayer persona, with his mask on. Unlike previous times, there were no items on the shelves to display except a few ones that looked defective. Not only that, but everything Benimaru felt was valuable was missing. 

Benimaru raised his right hand up, burning with purple fire, illuminating his fierce, red raksha mask.

Snap

Boom

As soon as he snapped his fingers, a loud explosion occurred that blew his shop and the ones beside his to smithereens. It shook the city and woke everyone up as a result. 

However, that wasn't the end of it, it was only the beginning of the chaos the people of this city had to embrace.I think you should take a look at

…

Braon Castle.

Coming out of his chamber, in his royal night robes, Arash asked his butler. "What is happening?"

Arash was sleeping soundly, holding his wife in his embrace, when suddenly an explosive sound entered his ears. This caused him a huge amount of panic, knowing something bad was about to happen.

"Sire, we also do not know. The general will send his army to check in a while." The butler answered, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Arash nodded his head, knowing he couldn't rush such things. "Good, I believe in Haitam's capabi-"

PRRRUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!

Arash wasn't able to finish his sentence when the sound of a warhorn rang throughout the city.

Arash was confused at first, but he quickly remembered why that was blown. "Oh no, the demon army is also coming. Quickly warn everyone to be on guard and prepare for war!"

"Yes, sire." The butler ran as fast as possible, with visible fear and nervousness in his eyes. 

Arash strode toward his assembly hall while contemplating, with black lines all over his face. "Whoever is doing this will pay for it."

All Peoples shop.

Inside Okarino's office, Okarino was standing before the window that reflected his appearance, but that didn't enter his eyes as only the sound of cries and the burning of the city reflected on his eyes. "So, you guys have started this, huh? Blowing up your shop in the beginning, removing all the evidence. You guys are cunning, but fortunately, I noticed your behavior early on."

"Sir, should we start too?" Behind Okarino was a group of people in brown cloaks, hiding their faces and body structures. 

"Of course." Okarino put a grin on his face. "Let them take some burden off our shoulders."

Okarino picked up the rapier that was lying on his chair. Without saying a word, he slashed at his back wall, slicing it apart in multiple pieces. It resulted in the backside being wide open. Despite the rapier being used for thrusting, Okarino managed to use the sharp point to slice apart the wall, showcasing his sword skill in full display.

Afterwards, Okarino jumped outside, and the others followed behind him. 

Having his vision set up on the baron's castle, Okarino marched on with his men.

…

The army camp, on the east side of the city.

Bang

Haitam slammed his fist on the table in spite of his anger. "These bastards! How did they enter the city without anyone noticing? With such a well-thought out plan, they were preparing in the city despite my soldiers keeping a watch."

Haitam was sure it was done by the demons, as just as the chaos in the city started, the demon army also began their advancement. 

Well, He wasn't wrong in that regard.

"Sir, what should we do?" The captain of a certain squad asked with concern. 

"We have only one thing to do." Haitam stood up and put his helmet on his head. "We will go to war. Let's crush these demons as fast as possible; we will finish the ones inside later on. I am sure the church won't be able to stand still with all of this happening. They will also feel the brunt of it."

Haitam walked out of his tent and ordered the captain. "Prepare the cavalry. I want to smash their confidence first."

…

Haitam was betting on the church to step up, but little did he know that the church would be one that was going to hit hard the most.

Standing on the roof of a building that was in front of the church, Benimaru looked down and said with a big smirk on his face. "I want to see if your mother will come after I kill every single one of you."
