When the Demon King is reincarnated as a national treasure

"You want to see the Necromancer?"

Hearing this sentence, Kyle was stunned, obviously unable to react to the jumping topic in front of him, "Well, what do you see the Necromancer doing?"

"Naturally, it is to summon Lord Lucifer's soul."

Angareth said in a deep voice: "I want to find out what happened. As a close friend of Sir Lucifer, I cannot allow him to die in such an unclear manner."

When the battle between heaven and hell broke out, he was on a diplomatic visit to the eastern hell, and when he received the news and rushed back, it was too late and the truth was unknown.

How can this make him reconciled? !

"But the soul of Lord Demon King has dissipated!"

Kyle couldn't help exclaiming, "After the Lord Demon King was attacked, General Baqin used countless methods to find his soul, but there was no progress at all. Even the elders of the Demon Race said that the soul of Lord Demon King is no longer there. In this world, even if you summon the Necromancer, there will be no progress!"

Kyle said so much just to let Angares give up unnecessary struggle and realize the reality.The demon king Lucifer Wald is already in the past tense, both body and soul have been completely annihilated.Continuing to dwell on the past does not help the present.However--

"Until I have witnessed it with my own eyes, I will not believe anything." I saw the silver-haired young man in front of me with a determined expression, "I must find the soul of Lord Demon King."

"..."

Kyle: "What if I can't find it?"

"If you really can't find it..." Angareth's voice gradually sank, "We'll talk about the succession of the Demon King at that time."

Seeing that the other party has made up his mind, Kyle didn't say anything more, just took a deep look at him and turned to leave.

After sending Kyle away, Angares turned around and ordered his subordinates to invite Agnes Bafatil, the most famous necromancer in the demon world, and opened an altar in the mansion to summon the soul of the dead demon king.

However, the summoning array was set up for three days in a row, and dozens of summoning spells were recited, but there was no improvement.

"Why is this..." Angares stared blankly at the empty altar in front of him, his expression hard to hide his disappointment.In the past three days, they have tried countless methods.But it did not receive any effect.He didn't know what else he was going to do.

"I have already said before that the soul of the Lord Demon King is not here. You must believe it is the Grand Duke." Agnes said with a sigh: "I have tried all the summoning spells in the Book of the Dead, and you still have to use it to find the soul of the Lord Demon King." Are you going to continue?"

Although she asked this question on her lips, Agnes actually hoped that the other party would just let it go.After all, it takes a lot of energy to summon undead, let alone such continuous summoning.Even a powerful magician like him may not be able to withstand such a high-intensity spell.

Thinking of this, Agnes couldn't help slandering: If it weren't for the fact that this person in front of him is likely to be the next Lord of the Demon World, he wouldn't have come to this muddy water.

Angares didn't know what Agnes was thinking, and after hearing this question, he fell silent.Should I continue or stop there?This is a difficult decision for him now.

Giving up meant that he would no longer be able to find Lord Lucifer's soul, nor would he know what happened that day.In case there was some kind of unknown conspiracy in Lord Lucifer's death, then the other party is likely to succeed because of it.

But if we continue...

Angareth's expression became serious.

If Lord Lucifer's soul is still in hell, it is impossible for the formation to fail to sense it.However, for three consecutive days, the summoning formation in front of him did not give him the slightest response.It's like telling him "quickly give up, don't be obsessed".

But if he really gave up like this, would he be willing?

Angares clenched his fists, "Are you sure you have tried all the spells?"

In her heart, Agnes prayed countless times to the great God of Darkness in order to allow Grand Duke Angares to let her get off work as soon as possible.I thought everything would be as I wished, but I never expected to hear such a sentence suddenly.For a moment, he couldn't help being stunned, "Grand Duke, you..."

"Did you lie just now?" Angares raised his finger and pointed to the book of the dead in the hands of the necromancer, "This book has obviously not been read to the end."

"Why did you lie to me?"

Facing the stern gaze of the Grand Duke of Upper Hell, Agnes' heart beat wildly.

How did he know?

The four eyes met for a long time, but the necromancer was finally defeated, and lowered his head and said in a low voice: "You...you are right, there is indeed the last one left who has not tried."

"As long as there are still spells that can be tried, I will not give up." The silver-haired young man in front of him looked firm, and his tone was irresistible: "Hurry up..."

"But it's a forbidden curse!" Before Angares could finish speaking, Agnes interrupted eagerly.In an instant, the scene suddenly fell silent.

"Forbidden curse?"

Angares frowned, "Why are there such things as forbidden curses in hell?"

Isn't this stuff a rumor intentionally created by those defenders of justice and holiness in the world who are afraid of powerful and uncontrollable forces?Why even the hell of the demon world, which advocates darkness and power, will appear?

Seemingly understanding his doubts, Necromancer Agnes explained: "The reason why this spell is designated as a forbidden spell is because it is incomplete."

"Just as scrapped weapons cannot fight the enemy on the battlefield, tattered clothes cannot withstand the severe cold. In short, this spell is a defective product, even if it is read, it will fail."

"However, failure is only the smallest price among them, because incomplete spells cannot be controlled, and using them casually may have serious consequences."

All this was told by his teacher. When he was teaching him the Book of the Dead, the teacher had repeatedly told him not to use the last spell.The teacher said that he cannot bear the consequences of the spell, so he must keep it in mind.But now he is likely to disobey his master's order and use this last spell...

Thinking about it, he slowly raised his head and his heart beat like a drum, "...Even so, do you still want to try?"

After speaking, Agnes quickly prayed in her heart: the mighty God of Darkness, I hope Grand Duke Angares will give up the idea of ​​using the forbidden spell!

However, it was unknown whether it was the bad signal from hell or Agnes's intentions were not sincere enough. The God of Darkness seemed to have not heard his prayer.I only heard a sentence from the other side——

"Even so, I'm going to try."

The young duke in front of him is obviously not so easily persuaded. Facing Agnes' persuasion, he was completely unmoved, "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up. Hurry up and get ready!"

Hearing that, the expression on the Necromancer's face was instantly replaced by sorrow.Of course, he didn't have the guts to show it directly in front of Angares, so he hurriedly lowered his head and replied "yes" reluctantly, and then stood up slowly.

Speaking of preparation, there is actually nothing to prepare, the altar and sacrifices are ready-made, as long as the spells chanted change and the position of the formation is changed.But it was precisely because of this that Agnes felt such a headache.How can he delay the time? !

Just when Agnes was burning with anxiety, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.

Otherwise...he just chanted a summoning spell and pretended it was a forbidden spell. Anyway, Grand Duke Angares is not a necromancer and doesn't understand the difference.

What a great idea!

Thinking of this, Agnes's mood instantly became much lighter, and even the movements of her hands became a little quicker.

However, the sky failed to fulfill the magic wish.Before Agnes could read the summoning spell, Grand Duke Angares took the Book of the Dead from his hand.

Agnes: ! ? ! ? ! ?

"Didn't it mean that incomplete spells can't be controlled, and using them casually may cause serious consequences?" Angares glanced at him, "I insisted on using the forbidden spell, and if something happens, it will definitely not happen." It is implicated in you, the mage."

Agnes opened her eyes wide, obviously shocked by what Grand Duke Angares did.

Not because I was moved, but because——

"Can you use the spell above?"

Seeing Angares's body pause, Agnes thought to herself: It's as expected.

The incantations of necromancers are passed down orally from generation to generation to their disciples, and the rhythm and sentences of the incantations are all particular.Others will not be able to recite correctly if they do not have the inheritance of the teacher.But now Angares has to rely on his own strength to activate the forbidden technique, which is simply whimsical.

Seeing the dignified appearance of the other party, Agnes fell silent for a moment.It was rumored that Grand Duke Angareth and the Demon Lord Lucifer were like brothers and sisters. Once the Demon King died, Grand Duke Angareth might not be able to accept this fact for a while.Although it was indeed annoying for him that Grand Duke Angares was so persistent, but from the standpoint of the other party, he really had no choice.When I came back from a business trip, I found that my friend was killed by the angel army. No one would be able to calm down, right?He did this only to seek the truth.

Realizing this, Agnes inevitably began to shake in her heart.Just when he was about to say "Why don't you let me do it", he saw the young man in front of him open the Book of the Dead and then lightly opened his thin lips.

The next moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar incantation slowly flowed out of his mouth.Although it sounded a little stumbling, Agnes was surprised to find that the other party's reading was all correct!

How... how?How could Grand Duke Angareth use the spells of a necromancer?

For a moment, Agnes was astonished beyond words.

However, something even more shocking happened in the next second.

After Angares repeatedly recited the incomplete half of the forbidden spell, the formation that was originally motionless began to emit a faint light.

Seeing this scene, Agnes' jaw dropped to the ground in shock.

The ban... the ban technique actually reacted?

how can that be possible? !This is obviously an incomplete spell!

However, before he recovered from his astonishment, wisps of purple-red smoke began to emerge from the golden robe that originally belonged to the demon king in the center of the formation.Then, the smoke turned into thin and long threads and slowly floated towards the map above the altar.

Seeing this, Angares immediately stopped reading, and then walked towards the map three steps in two steps.At this time, Agnes also ignored the possible danger after using the forbidden spell, and hurriedly followed her.

On the large western map of hell in front of him, the originally painted hell scene gradually faded, like a rock mural that has gradually faded after hundreds of years of wind and rain, turning gray.Instead, there are wisps of purple-red thin lines.They are like brushes smearing the faded picture in front of me, but after a while, a new pattern appears on the drawing.

This also seemed to be a map, but it wasn't any of the hell they were familiar with.Moreover, the shape of the map is also a bit strange, at first glance it looks like a rooster crowing in the sky.As the details of the map were gradually completed, they saw that the last wisp of smoke turned into a purple light spot and landed on the position of the small intestine of the chicken, shining brightly.

"This...this is?"

Agnes opened her eyes slightly, and at this moment he had obviously lost his normal language organization ability.

"If my guess is correct, that spot of light should be where Lord Lucifer's soul is."

Angares said, picked up the map in front of him and looked it over carefully, then frowned, "I always feel that this map looks familiar."

"look familiar?"

Agnes craned her neck in doubt and stared at the map for a while, but her mind was still blank.

"Grand Duke, could it be that you have misremembered?" This map does not look like ours at first glance, how could it be familiar?

"impossible."

Angares replied decisively, "As long as I have seen something with my own eyes, I will never forget it. I must have seen this map somewhere."

"..."

Seeing that Angares was so sure, Agnes didn't want to pour cold water on her. She just asked, "So, where have you seen it? This map is obviously not the Western Hell. If you have seen it It can only be somewhere other than hell, but you..."

"I remember."

Before Agnes could finish speaking, Angares suddenly said, "I remember seeing this picture somewhere."

Hearing this, Agnes paused, a little inexplicably: "Where is it?"

"Eastern underworld."

Angares: "When I was on a business trip to the east, I saw it in their Yan Luo Temple. This is a map of their world."

"Master Lucifer's soul is likely to have gone to the east."
