Chapter 729: Ten Waygates Installed
"Your dungeons are ready, where do you want it?" Damian got straight to the point.
It had been a long day of work—his body may be as strong as ever, but his mind was bored and slightly tired. He needed a change of scenery soon.
"Already? Thank you for making this your priority—we won’t forget the favor," Lazrin said with the first genuine smile on her face that Damian had ever seen.
"Yeah, don’t mind it," Damian dismissed it, but then, remembering her name, he added, "Was Demon King your.."
"Yes," Lazrin confirmed. "He was my husband—it was a marriage of convenience. Kalin was not always seen as a worthy warrior with his strange esper powers that manipulated dead animals and golem bodies. He wasn’t one of the seven dukes—but my brother was. He is one of the three you have imprisoned. His name is Morak.
When one day Kalin arrived on this land riding atop the Chaos Dragon, no duke was strong enough to resist, so they made him the Demon King. My family is a direct descendant of the Chaos God. We have ruled the strongest dukedom of the seven for years. This used to be the capital of the united kingdom of Malveria before the Land-Breaker severed us from the mainland.
To legitimize Kalin’s claim to the throne of the Demon King, my brother and I decided I should get married to him. It has been sixty years since."
"You had the Chaos Dragon for sixty years?" Damian asked, surprised.
"Yes. Everything happened because we had one sure way to reach the mainland—for at least the Transcendents."
"You should have used the dragon to find new land instead of going back. So much wasted effort."
