I'm a little bit cute after transforming.

The Demon King looked at Diana, who was speaking eloquently, and thought that perhaps she really could make the demons and humans live in harmony.

"A temporary ceasefire is not out of the question, but you must agree to one condition!"

Diana's face lit up with joy, and she said with great pride:

"Just tell me your conditions!"

The Demon King spoke slowly.

You must become the new Demon King!

Diana was somewhat taken aback, not understanding why she wanted to become the new Demon King.

"Grandma, what do you mean by this? Don't you want to be the Demon King anymore?"

Ariel (the Demon King) sighed.

"The demon race can only have one demon king. You have defeated me, and I can no longer serve as the demon king."

"The demon race only reveres the strong. Unless you die, the demon race will never be unified again!"

Diana was speechless. How did she become a demon king after just one fight?

"Grandma, um, can I...?"

"Can't!"

Ariel resolutely refused.

Unable to stop the war, Diana had no choice but to become the evil queen, even with tears in her eyes.

I discussed the next steps with Ariel.

······

The shouts from the outside had stopped by then, because they realized that the fighting inside the black shroud had ceased.

Many demons were waiting to see who would win, but almost no one thought the new Demon King could win, since she was still too young.

Suddenly, the darkness slowly dissipated, revealing a scene of ruins before everyone's eyes.

A silver-haired girl floated in the sky, her white clothes stained with blood, and her white pupils were filled with indifference!

A terrifying black pressure emanated from her, enveloping the demons and causing them to tremble involuntarily.

A somewhat immature yet icy voice rang out across the entire Demon King's Castle.

"I have defeated the Demon Queen Ariel, and I, Diana, will become your new queen!"

'How embarrassing!' Diana suppressed the urge to cover her face.

The entire Demon King's city was deathly silent, and many demons looked bewildered.

How is this possible! The incredibly powerful Lady Ariel has been defeated just like that?

The group of demon generals looked at each other in bewilderment.

The succubus was the first to rush towards the center, and the remaining demon generals, after a moment of surprise, quickly followed.

Several demon generals arrived nearby and knelt on one knee, shouting in unison:

"Welcome, Demon King!!!"

Only then did all the demons in the city react, kneeling down and shouting loudly:

"Welcome, Demon King!!!"

The sound resounded through the sky~

Diana felt invisible forces flowing into her body. It was a strange feeling; she didn't feel any increase in power, but she could still sense its presence.

Diana glanced at the swarm of demons on the street and felt a strange pang of pity for them. These demons were too naive; they would obey you unconditionally as long as you were strong enough.

Diana thought for a moment, and her voice rang out over the Demon King's castle.

"I will create a world without war, where every demon can live in peace and prosperity, without the need for plundering, killing, or the death of any more demons in battle!"

Some weaker races seemed to see hope; they had always been nothing more than cannon fodder.

Then there are still some races that enjoy killing, and although they dare not protest, they have expressed their dissatisfaction!

······

Three days later, the destroyed buildings in the center of the Demon King's castle had been restored to their original state. It has to be said, the demons' efficiency is truly astounding!

At this moment, in a room inside the Demon King's castle, nine demon generals sat before a huge round table.

The group relaxed somewhat, clearly having waited for some time.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded in the corridor outside the room, approaching from afar, and everyone sat up straight.

crunch~

The door was pushed open, and two people, one tall and one short, dressed in black and white clothes, walked in and sat in the two empty seats.

Diana straightened her back, trying to make herself look taller.

"Ahem~ As you can see, I have become the new Demon King!"

"My first order is: no one shall indiscriminately slaughter other demons or humans!"

The demon generals were all taken aback.

"How is that possible? We can't kill the humans. Are we just going to wait for them to come and kill us?"

"That's right! If we show weakness, the human race will become even more unscrupulous!"

Ariel's icy voice rang out, and a black aura enveloped the entire room.

"Are you questioning the Demon King's orders?"

Instantly, the room fell silent. They might not have felt anything for this new demon lord, but their fear of Ariel was still very strong!

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Diana quickly said:

"Grandma, don't be so impatient! Meetings are for everyone to express their opinions; that's what makes a meeting!"

Ariel was speechless. She regretted letting this guy become the Demon King. He had no Demon King's majesty at all!

The demons were all puzzled.

What's going on, grandma? Turns out you two are family!

Why would family members fight so fiercely?

The demon generals who witnessed their battle silently mourned for the headless knight once more.

Headless Horseman: So, I'm the only one who deserves to die?

Diana explained:

"Don't worry about the human race, I'll take care of that. You just need to avoid launching an attack."

"Also, I've been wandering around the city these past few days and I've found that you're really backward. You have nothing to eat or use. You've been fighting with the human race for so many years, can't you learn from them?"

A blond, muscular man said:

"My Lord Demon King, demons don't need to eat every day. They spend most of their time hibernating. When they get hungry, they just need to hunt some wild beasts!"

Diana said with exasperation:

"So you guys are lagging behind, all you do all day is fight!"

"Humans have always looked down on us, thinking we are a barbaric race that only knows how to kill."

Diana went on and on and on.

"In short, we must first cultivate the land, engage in planting, hunt wild animals for breeding, build more roads and infrastructure, and ensure that every member of the tribe has something to do!"

"Furthermore, I don't want to see the strong bullying the weak anymore. Every member of our clan has flesh and blood; we are all compatriots!"

"I will draft a set of rules as soon as possible, which I call the 'Law.' Everyone must abide by it, and anyone who violates it will be punished, including me!"

All the demon generals gaped open; they sensed that the demon realm was about to undergo a major upheaval.
