Chapter 152: Phantom Triss
Chapter 152: Phantom Triss
With the arrival of two more Demon Kings, the tense atmosphere both inside and outside the Golden Hall was slightly alleviated.
Although most demons would privately deny it, on the surface, they were indeed their kings. Since their own kings set an example by paying respects to the new Demon Emperor, they only needed to follow suit, which was indeed quite relaxing.
As Lynn raised his eyes to look at the two Demon Kings below, he couldn’t help but be impressed.
The Lust Demon King’s Phantom, Triss, he had seen before, but at that time, she was wrapped up tightly, and since warriors didn’t have X-ray vision skills, Lynn hadn’t actually seen her true appearance and figure.
Now it was different. The Lust Demon King’s armor was somewhat different from the usual demon armor. Although it was also in the form of war armor, it was very unconcerned with defense, exposing many parts.
However, it was unclear whether it was originally like that or had been drastically altered by the Phantom, the new Lust Demon King. The Lust Demon King’s armor, which should have been quite revealing and enticing, only exposed parts that were inconsequential, stopping short at the most alluring parts.
For instance, her hands and arms were exposed, but her shoulders and collarbone were not. Her lower legs were exposed, but the skirt armor conveniently covered her knees, showing none of her fair thighs.
There were also fewer coverings on her face, only a black silk bandblindfold obscuring the windows to her soul. Even without looking into her eyes, it wasn’t difficult to tell from her mouth, nose, and features that her appearance must be top-notch, unless her eyes were so unsightly that they ruined her otherwise perfect features.
Her demon king’s armor really was quite incongruous, possessing a feeling of wanting to be provocative but being afraid of exposure. It was very inconsistent with her supposed enchanting demeanor and looked very awkward.
As for the other Demon King, the Greed Demon King Liss Modor, she appeared much more gracious. Although her demon king’s armor revealed nothing, at least she wasn’t hiding anything, openly displaying her breathtaking beauty to everyone.
Lynn couldn’t think of a particularly good adjective, but he could only say she was indeed beautiful, on par with Catherine and comparable to Xiya, absolutely a peerless beauty of panda-grade rarity.
"Hehe, Lust Demon King, Greed Demon King... very good, you may rise and be seated."
Lynn looked at the two kneeling Demon Kings, his eyes openly showing desire and greed, which truly matched the names of these two Demon Kings.
The two strikingly beautiful Demon Kings, being so openly stared at by Lynn, each reacted differently. The Greed Demon King Liss gave Lynn a bold wink, then walked over to sit beside the Gluttonous Demon King Betty, whereas the Lust Demon King’s Phantom, who supposedly should act more provocatively, was very reserved, silently joining the demon king lineup.
Lynn wasn’t familiar with her and didn’t know her situation, but the other demons found it unsurprising.
This generation’s Lust Demon King was truly a rarity, clearly inheriting the intent of lust, yet was seemingly unable to express it... or perhaps she just couldn’t express it towards male demons, after all, she simply had a fear of men, and behaved normally around women.
Throughout the Demon Realm, the least approved Demon King by her own country’s demons was the Lust Demon King. Although her peculiarity was a congenital strange illness and perhaps it couldn’t be blamed on her, the fact that she insisted on holding onto the position of Lust Demon King while being like this, greatly irked the demons.
The honorable Lust Demon King, at the age of 330, was surprisingly still a virgin, which for the entire Lust Demon Kingdom was an explosive event, especially considering that this Lust Demon King also had half Enchanting Demon blood, which, if spoken of, would bring even more shame to demons.
Within the Lust Demon Kingdom, for adult demons, nothing was more insulting than being called a virgin, just like being called polite in the Proud Demon Kingdom, called gluttonous in the Gluttony Demon Kingdom, or called well-tempered in the Fury Demon Kingdom.
Of course, if it were just these, Phantom Triss might simply fail to win the crowd, but her situation also led to a major problem that was unacceptable to the Lust Demon Kingdom’s demons.
Because the current Lust Demon King was a female demon and feared men, she would certainly not have offspring, which for the Lust Demon Kingdom demons who valued many offspring and much happiness, was a transgression against the heavenly rules.
The Demon Race also valued inheritance. Although they generally emphasized strength, when possible, they also pursued noble bloodlines.
Today’s Seven Great Demon Royal Families, similar to the Divine Protection Continent’s Eight Great Empires, are descendants of the Demon Gods, and from a bloodline perspective, they are equally noble.
The difference is, the Divine Protection Continent had only eight deities who left bloodline descendants in the Lower Realm, whereas in the Lower Demon Realm, there are no less than a hundred known Divine Blood Nobility, indicating that Demon Gods were much more playful than True Gods.
Today’s Lust Demon Kingdom Royal Family can be said to be the most suitable Divine Blood Descendants to rule the Lust Demon Kingdom because their bloodline source is the only Abyssal Demon and Enchanting Demon half-blood Demon God in demon realm history. When her bloodline descendants were left, she was an extremely powerful Demon Lord, comparable to a Main God from the Divine Realm.
Phantom Triss, possessing such a noble lineage and uniquely sharing the mixed-blood identity with this ancestor, is such a disappointment. It’s no wonder the national demons are as furious as if they just returned from a tour in the Fury Demon Kingdom.
Moreover, it’s also rumored that this Lust Demon King, who brings shame to the demons, oversees three thousand Enchanting Demons, and even attempts to teach them restraint, which is a joke amongst jokes. There has never been a chaste Enchanting Demon in demon realm history, especially since Enchanting Demons aren’t ordinary demons—they’re the kind that, once they’ve tasted flesh, can never return.
Perhaps the only clean ones are the seven Enchanting Demons who grew up with Phantom Triss, always closely serving her, now appointed as the Joyful Witches.
Oh, maybe not completely clean, considering the current Lust Demon King doesn’t like male demons, which may mean she likes female demons...
Nowadays, very few in the Lust Demon Kingdom obey the orders of the Lust Demon King and the Joyful Witches, so who knows what they do hiding in the Demon King Palace day after day when they can’t manage things?
After all, they are seven and a half Enchanting Demons, surely they’re not playing hide-and-seek under the covers?
The previous Lust Demon King was particularly fitting to the demon design, very fond of playing, and very skilled at playing with female demons. This generation’s Lust Demon King might just be the same as her father the king...
But now, her Phantom Triss’s good days are numbered, as the new His Majesty the Demon Emperor seemingly has his eyes on her, and judging from his actions, which are somewhat without the rules and sentiment of the late emperor, the witches he sets his sights on are truly possibly at risk of being forcefully claimed...
