Chapter 238 Behind the Demon King's Fate Track
The Wisdom Demon shook his head helplessly.
"Although I\'m tens of thousands of years older than you, I\'m not a stubborn old antique. The defeat a thousand years ago has already proven that the demon race\'s old ways no longer work. The purpose of us summoning the Demon King for generations is to unite the entire demon race, but if we already have such a King, why bother?"
"Moreover, Eileen, don\'t be too optimistic about the situation. We haven\'t completely defeated the humans yet. The two biggest threats, the Empire and the Radiant Holy Nation, have not been eradicated. So my determination to protect his majesty is definitely not inferior to yours. That\'s why I kept you behind to talk, isn\'t it?"
"Anyway, hearing that you don\'t mind his majesty attitude towards humans, I\'m relieved. And..."
At this point, Leon paused, putting aside his previous chatting tone, his face becoming serious and solemn.
"You also reminded me. If I were that Emperor, wanting to assassinate the Demon King, I don\'t necessarily have to truly kill the Demon King. Perhaps there is another way."
"What do you mean? How is that possible!" Combining the previous conversation, Eileen immediately understood the Wisdom Demon\'s meaning and found it utterly absurd.
Indeed.
If the Emperor also exploited this loophole of "summoning" and personally destroyed the human civilization in the world, then the Demon King would also be forced to disappear under the restriction of the "summoning contract". In a sense, it was no different from being "killed".
But... Just as Eileen now found it very ridiculous.
Wasn\'t the Emperor\'s purpose in killing the Demon King to defeat the demon race and protect humans?
In the end, in order to kill his majesty, he destroyed his own race first. Unless that Emperor was completely insane, how could he possibly do such a thing?
Moreover, even if that Emperor really went crazy and decided to go down with the demon race...
Even if he was the Emperor among humans, it was impossible to destroy human civilization overnight. They, the demon race, were not just for show. They would definitely not just watch and would step in to protect humans when necessary.
Leon nodded. He also knew this was a very small probability, but they had to guard against it.
As the Wisdom Demon, he had to be thorough and consider all risks. Leon had already decided to immediately leave some backup plans in secret.
Of course, before the Wisdom Demon left, seeing the Succubus who originally had nothing to worry about but now also felt a bit uneasy after this discussion, he still spoke to comfort her:
"Eileen, trust his majesty. The Demon King must have considered more than us. And to be honest, our speculations about the \'summoning contract\' are just speculations. The one who truly understands these rules... is still the Demon King himself."

Demon King\'s Bedchamber.
Reji lay on a large bed, gazing at the ceiling.
This place was now incomparably better than the simple bedroom he had when he first arrived in the barren Chaos Rift.
In the few months as the Demon King, he had indeed steadily advanced step by step according to plan. Now, he was only two steps away from success.
Thinking of this, Reji opened a panel that he had put aside for a long time - the Demon King\'s Fate Track.
The Demon King\'s Fate Track was his greatest help in the early stages.
The first fate track, King\'s Birth, gave him the heaven-defying effect of multiplying all rewards by a hundredfold, which could be said to be the first pot of gold that enabled him to successfully start and rapidly level up.
The conditions for unlocking the second and third fate tracks, apart from the apostles\' favorability, each corresponded to the demon race\'s degree of conquest in this world.
From [Possess a "stronghold-level" demon territory] to [Possess a "castle-level" demon territory].
The second fate track, King\'s Rise, allowed him to ignore any item\'s usage conditions and learn all skills without any threshold.
The third fate track, King\'s Might, gave him an increase in all attributes, as well as spell accuracy, guaranteed critical hits, control negation, and the strongest immunity to instant death, many templates that fit the identity of a "big BOSS".
And when he completely conquered and took down Ilinor, the fourth fate track would also be unlocked then.
[King\'s Destruction Fate Track]
[Unlock Condition: Possess a "kingdom-level" demon territory, and the "destruction degree" of the world\'s civilization (humans) reaches 20%]
[Activation Effect: When your attack target is "human", all your damage will carry the "Demon Blade" effect, burning an additional 52% of the target\'s mana equal to the damage dealt. If the target\'s mana is zero, it will be changed to deal the same percentage of true damage.]
Starting from the fourth one, it no longer required the apostles\' favorability condition like the previous ones.
Instead, it turned to be more related to "conquering the world".
No.
It should be said to be related to "destruction". Enjoy new chapters from M V L
And now, with him no longer letting the demon race endure and nearly three-fifths of the world falling to the demon race overnight in a blitzkrieg, his Demon King\'s Fate Track was even unlocked in succession, to the point where he could even see the final seventh fate track.
[The Fifth - King\'s Break]
[Unlock Condition: Possess five "kingdom-level" demon territories, and the "destruction degree" of the world\'s civilization (humans) reaches 35%]
[Activation Effect: When you kill a unit of the "human" race, you will randomly obtain one of the following permanent bonuses: +15 HP / +0.1 Spell Resistance / +0.26 Physical Resistance / +3% Attack Power / +1.5 Critical Trauma / +7% Skill Extreme Speed]
[The Sixth Fate track - King\'s Power]
[Unlock Condition: Bring half of the world under the demon race\'s rule, and the "destruction degree" of the world\'s civilization (humans) reaches 60%]
[Activation Effect: All your spells will "no longer consume" mana]
[The Seventh Fate track - World Destruction]
[Unlock Condition: The "destruction degree" of the world\'s civilization (humans) reaches 95%]
[Activation Effect: …]
Reji stared at this final seventh fate track.
From its special name, it already implied that this fate track was the end of everything.
Its effect was very simple and had no other extra explanations.
Just three words.
[Ascend to Godhood]
This also explained to Reji where his many previous generations of Demon Kings had gone.
Their disappearance was not a self-choice, but a result of the fate track.
Indeed, the fate track had been giving him powerful strength, and these later high-level fate tracks were each more terrifying than the last, all helping him to complete the final task of "world destruction".
But now, Reji had already stopped at unlocking the fourth level.
If he wanted, he could actually unlock the fifth and sixth at any time.
The fifth level\'s infinite stacking, and permanent attributes at that, with a total of six growable attributes, each of which could be said to be very crucial, definitely not some useless chicken ribs.
According to the current world population, these few values would at least be multiplied by a unit of "hundred million".
