Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 204 Returning the Favor

Hearing Roy’s words, Julia was shocked. Roy wanted to take the Red Sea Egg for himself!

What’s so great about this Red Sea Egg that even Roy is willing to take the risk to hide it?

However, she did not ask. After returning to her senses, she began to consider for Roy.

After pondering for a while, she asked Roy, “Can’t you put this away?”

“No, this thing is too strange. It doesn’t have a soul, but it’s a living creature and can’t be stored in my space!” Roy shook his head.

“In that case, you can’t stay here anymore!” Julia said. “Mother Lilith might have some informants that we don’t know about that help her collect information about what happens in this world... Since you plan on hiding this thing, you have to avoid these possible eyes.”

“Yes, the news of my return can’t spread!” Roy nodded, but then he frowned. “But there’s still a more troublesome place because I don’t know if the Charred Council will tell others about the theft of the Red Sea Egg. If Lilith knows about this, she will know that I’ve already obtained the Red Sea Egg...”

Julia thought about it and then shook her head. “I don’t think it’s possible because the invasion of the space is very embarrassing for the Charred Council. It’s impossible for them to make it known. Even if they want to recover the Red Sea Egg, they’ll only do it secretly, so I think that there shouldn’t be any problem.”

“That’s good! As long as I can keep this secret, no one will know the whereabouts of the Red Sea Egg. When I understand the specific operation method of the Red Sea Egg and find a place to hide it, I will show up again!” Roy said. “And I’ll make Lilith mistakenly believe that I escaped from the Charred Council after being heavily injured, and the mission to retrieve the Red Sea Egg failed!”

“Are you confident?” Julia asked.

“It shouldn’t be a big problem...” Roy thought for a while before shaking his head. “Actually, the surest way would be killing me once and letting my soul return to the Abyss Outpost to resurrect. This way, I can clear my suspicions!”

Due to the existence of the Abyss Outpost in this world, if demons were killed and their souls escaped, they would first resurrect at the Abyss Outpost instead of returning to the Abyss. Once Roy’s soul revived, Lilith would think that he was killed in the Charred Council Space, and the mission must have failed.

However, even though Julia was Roy’s most trusted person now, it was still better not to hand over his soul to others... Julia would not agree to this kind of thing. In the Abyss, even a couple would not hand their lives to each other, so Roy’s words were just a casual remark.

Perhaps someone might ask why Roy did not activate the Teleport skill and directly return to the Abyss? If he returned, wouldn’t everything be fine?

This was indeed a solution. But the problem was that Roy was certain that the importance of the Red Sea Egg was probably beyond his imagination. Once Roy returned to the Abyss without saying a word, Lilith would definitely suspect that he had escaped with the Red Sea Egg. For a demon king like Lilith, even though her clone was in this world, it did not mean that she could not deal with Roy in the Abyss!

How strong was Lilith? Although Roy was not quite clear, he could understand by referencing Raphael’s incarnation... Roy did not want to be targeted by Lilith.

What he needed to do now was to clear his suspicions. He wanted to create the illusion that he had failed and did not obtain the Red Sea Egg so that he could hide it from Lilith and prevent her from suspecting anything. Only then could he completely claim the Red Sea Egg as his own.

Therefore, Roy could not return to the Abyss directly. On the contrary, he had to stay in this world for a while. It would be even better for him to return to the Black Stone Throne to meet Lilith and report the news of his mission failure.

Now, the best news for Roy was that he was certain that Lilith did not place her hopes on him at all. After all, he was only a high-rank demon, and Lilith had probably only used him as a pawn to scout the way from the beginning. So even if he failed, Lilith would still find it normal, and she would not doubt that he did not have the strength to steal the Red Sea Egg under the watchful eyes of the three councilors of the Charred Council!

Roy’s plan was actually very simple. It was just a ploy to hide the truth. He believed that as long as he failed, Lilith might send more pawns to try. But in that case, even if she finally found out that the Red Sea Egg had disappeared, it would be impossible to tell how it had disappeared.

Julia quickly figured out Roy’s true intentions. Just as she said, she and Roy were partners now, and she and Roy had undertaken this mission together. The two of them were now sharing the same fate, and since Roy planned to do this, she would do her utmost to help.

Now, Roy needed to hide and find somewhere to place the Red Sea Egg for the time being. After discussing, they found that it was probably not easy to operate in the human world, so it was best to find a way to go to an alternate space.

Originally, Julia had suggested going to the alternate space where the Lord of the Hollows was. After all, that old demon had connections with them. With him leading the way, it would be very easy to go to his alternate space. But in the end, Roy rejected this suggestion because he felt that the Lord of the Hollows could not be trusted!

After coming out of the Charred Council Space, Roy was thinking about a question. Since the Lord of the Hollows was one of the former councilors, who would replace his demon seat after he left?

The identity of one of the three councilors, Raphael, was now exposed. The other two were still a mystery, but there was no doubt that one of them should be a very powerful demon.

Finally, Roy thought of someone-Black Hammer Ulthane!

If Roy asked him for help and got him to send him to the space where the makers were, he would probably not reject it, right? Anyway, Roy only needed to promise him that he would not cause trouble in the world of his people. Although the makers were few in number, they were powerful and were in one of the few alternate spaces that had not been invaded by demons. He should be able to hide the Red Sea Egg there well. Moreover, Ulthane had promised Roy that he would repay the favor, and it was now time to pay.

Therefore, Roy asked Julia to make a trip to find the Black Hammer Ulthane and to send all the demons around the castle away in order to hide the news of Roy’s return.

Ulthane’s whereabouts were easy to find, and it could even be said that he had heard of them often. This was because he had been searching for human survivors everywhere all these years and often fought against angels and demons. It did not take Julia much effort to find him.

Two days later, Julia returned and brought back a huge rune key. She told Roy that Ulthane had given it to him, and as expected, Ulthane had agreed to Roy’s request. This key was the key to opening the maker’s alternate space.

After getting this key, Roy secretly left the castle alone. He went with the Red Sea Egg and found the entrance to the alternate space. Then he used the rune key that Ulthane gave him to open the spatial door to the world of the makers.

However, what Roy did not expect was that the first thing he saw after entering this world was Ulthane!

“Are you waiting for me?” Roy asked in surprise.

“Damn it. A demon wants to enter the world where we live. Do you really think that I wouldn’t care?” Ulthane said unhappily. “Ever since Julia took the key, I’ve been waiting for you here!”

“Okay!” Roy nodded. “You’ve waited until I’m here, are you satisfied now?”.

“I repeat, don’t mess around here, Osiris!” Ulthane said solemnly before looking at the huge egg beside Roy. He could not help but gulp in surprise. “I seem to understand why you’re here. Is this damn thing what I think it is?”

Ulthane must have heard of the Red Sea Egg. Roy knew that he could not hide it from him, this old fellow who was countless years old, so he could only nod. “Yes, it’s what you think it is!”

“Unexpectedly, you really got it out. This thing has been in the hands of the Charred Council for thousands of years!” Ulthane walked over, looked up at the Red Sea Egg, and sighed. “You demons always do things that astonish people...”

“Okay, less nonsense. I have to hide this thing first. You’re the host here, so show me a place!” Roy waved his hand.

“Follow me. There’s a hidden valley in the northwest. You can hide it there first!” Ulthane turned around and left, while Roy carried the Red Sea Egg and followed closely behind...
