I was walking in the forest, and by every step I could feel my strength growing. By no time flat I would have a noticeably stronger aura around me than before. Xalvual Evilian had been transporting all of his powers into my body for over one hour. After he was done the plan was to go to the palace and claim the throne.
Since I am much more powerful than I was last time I should be able to walk into the palace without the Guards trying to stop me.
They will try to stop me…However, they won't even get close. I am much more powerful than before.
"It is done."
I smirked, I have long awaited the time when I would be unstoppable. Nobody can afford to not fear me anymore! I will make the reincarnation of the demon lord even more feared than the Demon Lord himself.
I teleported to the castle.
"Hey!!! How dare you come back Demon Lord scum-"
The soldier who had yelled at me gasped and began to choke.
If I am not mistaken he had finally sensed my aura.
Because now, even just glancing at me would be enough to almost kill somebody!
"Heh, step aside for your king!"
"I….Uh…..YESSS"
The soldiers who were lining the bridge that led to the main building of the palace quickly jumped away.
It's interesting how different their reactions are now compared to what they were like when I first came here.
"Sooooo here's my throne room…. It's so bright and cheerful….Probably the first thing I'll need to do is give it some serious renovations!"
"What are you speaking of?"
I heard a voice of a elderly man. Wonder who that could me? Surely not the king, he seemed too weak to get out of his throne, there is no way he could be talking in such a demanding voice!
I turned around and surely enough it was the king, followed closely behind by the queen.
"Oh hello there. I just came by because I thought it was about time to reclaim my throne. Do you think differently?"
"Demon Lord…How could you! We believed that you had given up on taking the throne and had instead focused on your studies!"
I laughed at the queen.
"Did you really think I'd stay in that miserable Class-F? It didn't even keep me interested for a couple of minutes. When I fully confirmed that all the students and the teachers were completely incompetent I quickly left. Then after a bit of….training, I came to reclaim my throne."
"You….I can't believe you. What an awful pest you are. I thought we had finally gotten rid of you once and for all!"
"So sad for you I guess.. Honestly I think this country needs a change in leadership. If all its leaders have been like you, having the demon lord take over might be something the citizens will forward to!"
"Don't you dare talk like that to us!"
The Queen's voice was really quite screechy when she was angry, I wonder if her daughter Cilictia took after her?
Before I could spend any longer thinking of insults against the queen the king stepped in.
"It seems you will not listen to reason. Although I thought of you as being smart it turns out you are just a young boy! I must speak to you in a language you will understand better."
The king walked towards me, slowly taking off his cape and revealing a sort of sparring outfit. He gave off a completely different aura now.
I had never thought much of the king and had always thought of him as being stupid and weak, however now I see my flawed thinking.
"So, it turns out the king isn't a weakling. What difference does it make? I'll crush you no matter if you're an old man struggling to stand up or the number one best fighter in the galaxy. It's all the same to me now, I'm too powerful to see a difference."
"You talk as if you understand your powers however, correct me if I am wrong, you are yet to use them?"
"That is completely besides the point! I will crush you without a moment's hesitation!"
I ran towards the old man, faster than the speed of light.
However, instead of him getting hit by the impact he simply sidestepped away.
"You have a lot to know. Although you are the demon lord you have no real motivation to fight, I however am fighting to save my loved ones lives."
"Wise words….not! Did you read that from a childish morals book? My grandpa back in earth would have said the same thing! You still think of me as a child, don't you!"
"Did I ever say that I did not?"
"Arrrrrgh!!! Watch out, old man! Soon I'll stop going easy on you!"
"And perhaps soon I shall stop as well."
This old man was way more annoying than I would have thought! Who knew the weak looking king would be unbelievably annoying!
I ran towards him and pushed him through the window.
"Let's take this somewhere else. I don't exactly want to destroy my throne room before I get it!"
"Alright, if you say so."
I flew out of the palace and flew to a barren mountaintop. It was very far away from the palace so hopefully it would not destroy it.
"Isn't this a bit close, I really was planning to go all out, and I wouldn't like to destroy my palace."
This…this old man! He seriously thinks he's stronger than me,the demon lord!
"Alright fine then!"
I teleported him and me to a moon, just outside of the palace.
"Is this better?"
"Much better!"
Alright, enough of this chit-chat! I need to get down to business!
I threw a punch at the King's face which he quickly blocked. He then kicked me with a l flurry of (weak) kicks.
If the fight kept on like this I might be in serious danger of falling asleep!
Explosion of Death!
A mediocre move. It had the capability of one shotting normal people, however wasn't anything too special. By using this I would be able to test his strength.
He got launched back by my explosion, however he soon stood back up almost completely unscathed.
"Hmmmm…Looks like there's no need for me to hold back whatsoever! That's a relief!"
I smirked, the more arrogant he was the more satisfying it would be to destroy him.
"I'm going to end this now, Old man! This fight has gone on for far to long!"
"Oho! You are mighty impatient!"
He jumped behind me so fast it seemed he was almost teleporting. He then threw many quick and powerful punches to my head that caused me to get flung into the air.
"Without magic your capabilities are very impressive!"
"Thank you!"
He then jumped up behind me (while I was still in the air) and gave me a strong kick that sent me flying even further.
I coughed up blood. This is the first time anybody has made me this injured! I was seething in anger, more so than I have ever been before.
"Just you wait old man! I will destroy you very soon!"
"Don't worry kiddie! I don't truly believe I can kill you, I was in truth just hoping to weaken you enough! And I think I succeeded in that!"
"Heh, not in your dreams. Meet your end gramps!"
Ultimate Crusher of Life, Burning Hot Rage! Long Range Mode!
I focused all of my magic power into my fist and sent it thundering down into the direction of the old king. It sent a huge laser-like red blast from my fist. It split the moon in half and went on to destroy a nearby planet.
The king screamed as the blast disintegrated him and I laughed.
"I…..am not….done yet....."
With his dying breath the old king clapped together his hands and closed his eyes.
"The…Negative Fist!"
Around his hands appeared an extremely bright white light and then, extremely fast the loudest sound I've ever heard appeared. As if an organ with one million pipes were playing its lament. And then, all too quickly a huge explosion engulfed the entire moon. His entire body disappearing within the bright light. However it's range was even longer than my blast. It seemed to never end.
Slowly I felt my body burn up from the explosion. My eyes widened and I screamed, because I had no power to do anything else.
