Demon Emperors
Ch.53 - Getting a New Skill

After killing Wart Banne and also conquering the kingdom of Devil’s Winged, Cyrus now went into the royal palace to sit on the throne of the kingdom, followed by Eliza who stood beside him.

In the style of sitting like a haughty noble, he said out loud. “This second too, this kingdom is mine!”

The only kingdom in the central continent, having only one territory, had now completely belonged to Cyrus.

Without having to acknowledge the kingdom, he had actually now become the only king in the central continent. This is natural, because the way the world works is who wins the power.

At the same time as Cyrus's confession, Eliza now asks, “Then, what about the kingdom of Red Blood?”

Cyrus was silent for a moment while thinking of the right answer, “No problem He said with a haughty smile on his face.

Suddenly Cyrus was startled by Qwerty's notification which made her mood even happier.

[ Congratulations!! you have conquered the kingdom. ]

[Get Skill ‘Troops Leadership.’ ]

The happy and happy feeling of having successfully destroyed that traitorous demon kingdom had now turned into a happier feeling, to the point of being unable to be expressed by words.

Not only managed to get a new kingdom, but now Cyrus also got a new skill at the same time.

“What is Troops Leadership? How can I get this skill?” Cyrus asked in confusion at the heart that was seen sitting on the throne of the king.

[Troops Leadership Skill is the skill to lead and create an army. This skill is obtained from hidden mission rewards. ]

“Creating an army? Doesn't this skill have the exact same function as the Warlock skill?”

[The two skills are different. The Warlock creates an army of souls after killing, while the Leadership Troops create an army of living beings and have a contractual relationship with their owners. ]

Cyrus smiled very wide, “Mantap.. With this skill I was able to make a Troops Leadership contract with my 200,000 troops.” He said with a feeling of joy in his heart.

Luck was indeed on Cyrus' side, he gained a lot of benefits with this skill.

A very useful skill for Cyrus who had become a king in a kingdom. Of course this skill was exactly the same as Cyrus' slave contract with Qwerty's help, but what distinguished him was the profit he gained from killing.

Slave contracts with the Qwerty system had an Exp advantage of 70/30%, while the Leadership Troops only had an Exp advantage of 90/10%.

Cyrus benefited greatly from this Troops Leadership skill, but the development of contracted beings became slower than slave contracts.

In the afternoon, after Brush finished with his duties he now brought the original people of the Horns of Hell kingdom and the prisoners who had been successfully arrested.

“Master... the original citizens who survived only 3,000 demons alone, many of the original citizens of this kingdom who died due to torture from the traitorous royal warrior, Devil’s Wing.” Brush said with a sad look on the face due to the many relatives who have died.

With a slightly irritated feeling Cyrus replied, “Hm... Where are they all now?”

“They are all outside the palace, Master.”

Cyrus stood up from his throne, and came to Brush and said. “Antar I'm there, I want to talk to them.”.

“Good, Master.”

Finally Cyrus and Brush went out of the royal palace, to approach the survivors while keeping his promise to make the demon race stronger.

Arriving there, Cyrus was surprised by 2 things that made her feel happy and sad feelings that could hurt her heart.

The second thing is that Cyrus saw for himself the scenery that can make Cyrus feel hurt and sad, the scenery is the condition of the original people of the Horns of Hell kingdom.

Most of them were physically injured as a result of the torture inflicted by the previous Devil’s Wing soldiers, they were tortured for being forcefully employed to repair and renovate buildings damaged by the war.

With the condition of the thin body and the scars of the whips that imprint on their skin, making Cyrus reluctant to see it.

“My People... I'm sorry I'm late to come.” Cyrus said in her heart with a sad heart.

Cyrus strengthened her heart to speak before them, “I'm sorry.If only I had been a little faster to save you all, surely you wouldn't have gotten into this kind of trouble…” His speech was respectful in front of his 3,000 people.

One of the old geezers of them ventured to answer Cyrus's remark, “You don't need to apologize, Your Majesty… this is all also our own fault because many of us did not believe with you one month ago.” He said respectfully before Cyrus.

“I promise to prosper my people and also restore the glory of this kingdom.” Cyrus replied with a sweet smile to reassure the hearts of the tormented people.

The old grandfather replied, “Thank you, Your Majesty the king. We all hope, you can be a wise king.” He said with respect.

The conversation continued and was accompanied by complaints from the people. Cyrus listened to many complaints about his people with a smile and exchanged words.

Until Cyrus said aloud in his trademark style in front of the demon people, “I... Cyrus Alexander, will build a new kingdom in this central continent.”.

As Cyrus spoke, all the people and soldiers who heard his words bowed their knees and respected Cyrus.

Cyrus continued to say her words, “To avenge you, my family's revenge, and the grudges of fallen demons serving the kingdom of Horns of Hell.”

“Life His Majesty the demon king, Cyrus.”

“Long life His Majesty the demon king, Cyrus.”

Praise the kneeling people simultaneously. Seen on their faces smiling happily listening to Cyrus say that he will avenge them.

Their statement of loyalty served him, making Cyrus increasingly face to face to become stronger and increase the number of strong troops with the Leadership Troops skill he had just obtained.

With an excited feeling Cyrus said, “I also came here to fulfill my promise.. Brush, come here.” He said as he waved his hand calling for Brush to come closer.

Brush walked up to him, “What's up, Master?” He said with respect.

Cyrus pointed at Brush and said, “He is real proof.. I can make a weak creature to be strong even very strong, as I promised one month ago.”.

All the people were astonished and well remembered the agreement one month ago, that Cyrus offered strength but they rejected it and only Brush was willing to accept Cyrus' offer.

Then Cyrus continued her remarks, “No word is too late. Anyone who wants the strength to help me take revenge, come to me. I will welcome him with pleasure.” Cyrus said smilingly seducing the doubts of the hearts of his people.

“I'm willing.”

“I too..”

“I want revenge.. I am also willing, Your Grace.”.

A loud voice volunteered about their availability to be Cyrus's subordinate. Their purpose and determination to survive had now returned to how they had been, even now their survival goal had been peppered with resentment and determination to become stronger.

On the other hand, when the prisoners saw the incident, they all felt fear for the safety of his life.

Most of the prisoners belonged to several other races, who also assisted in the destruction of the Horns of Hell kingdom internally and externally.

As the voice of the people who were willing to become Cyrus's subordinate continued, Cyrus suddenly shocked one of the wrists that touched his shoulder and the voice that spoke to him.

“Honey... You haven't given your new kingdom a name..”.
