When Laischa's voice rang clearly all around, and Shane received it unmistakably, even Shane was rendered speechless.
"The body of the Demon King..."
Shane was dumbstruck, looking at Laischa with eyes filled with astonishment, completely at a loss for words.
He had guessed that the Magic Life named Lasha must be related to something of the Demon King's that Laischa had stolen from the Royal Palace.
He had also suspected that Laischa might have used the stolen item as a material to create the Magic Lifeform that was Lasha.
Thus, the attitudes of those important figures towards Lasha could be explained.
But even Shane hadn't thought that the item related to the Demon King would actually be the body of the Demon King.
And Lasha was a Magic Lifeform created from the body of the Demon King.
"What you are seeing now, Lasha, is actually using the body of the Demon King, but inside is a consciousness of a Magic Life that I created ten years ago, not the essence of the Demon King himself."
Laischa revealed such a secret to Shane.
"Those who know of Lasha's existence and at the same time are aware of the Demon King's body sealed deep beneath the Royal Palace, could guess this matter."
As long as one knew these two pieces of information, it was not at all difficult to deduce the cause and effect between them.
At least, for those well-informed mighty beings of various races, guessing and seeing through this was really not difficult at all.
"Now do you understand why I was so anxious?" Laischa said with a wry smile, "Because you slept with the Demon King, even if it was just the body."
It was a terrifying revelation that could scare to death anyone who knew about it.
Shane himself couldn't help but shiver.
It couldn't be helped.
What Laischa said was too horrifying.
That was the Demon King.
The origin of the Demon Clan, the symbol of The End, the synonym of Destruction, the beginning of all calamities in this world.
Even the Supreme God Ominis was helpless against it, and its power could effortlessly split Omni Potanssen into three, creating the Divine World, Demon Realm, and Human Realm as entities beyond normal standards.
In terms of mere Power and combat capability, this entity was the strongest in the world, unbeatable by anyone.
Had it not been to counter this mortal foe, the Supreme God Ominis wouldn't have summoned the Hero, the Divine Race wouldn't have come into being, and the Human Race wouldn't have appeared in this world.
It could be said that this entity was the reason why Omni Potanssen was the way it currently was.
Without her, this world would not be as it is now, it would just be the Supreme God Ominis' backyard.
As a result, this being, whom even the Hero had to amass countless generations before being able to finally defeat a thousand years ago, their body was none other than Lasha herself.
How could Shane not tremble?
"This doesn't make sense," Shane couldn't help saying, "If Lasha's body is the Demon King's body, shouldn't she at least have some Power, no matter how weak?"
Even if it were one in ten million, if Lasha possessed the slightest fraction of the Demon King's power, she could overpower the vast majority of people in this world.
But Lasha had no Power at all, which was absurd.
At this, Laischa's expression became even more complicated than before.
"I suppose it is because after the Demon King died, all his Magic Power dissipated into the heaven and earth," Laischa spoke faintly, "Due to the complete dissipation of Magic Power, the Demon King's remaining body was nothing more than an empty shell, devoid of any Power."
That is to say, unless the Magic Power of the Demon King was retrieved, Lasha would not have any Power.
"The Magic Power of the Demon King..."
Shane murmured, then suddenly realized something, and looked sharply at Laischa.
He thought of something.
A thought that was terrifying upon close examination.
"If the body Lasha is using now is actually the Demon King's body, then..."
What about this Demon Clan girl who looked exactly like Lasha before him?
Or to be more direct, what about this Demon Clan girl who looked exactly like the Demon King, what was her story?
Why did she have the same face as the Demon King?
Why did she steal the Demon King's body from the Royal Palace?
Why...did she appear in the Old Demon Clan Faction's Slaughterer Faction, and participate with Beddo and others in the large-scale assassination event in the Royal Capital ten years ago?
Considering the previous statement "the Magic Power of the Demon King has already dissipated into heaven and earth" and Laischa's Unique Skill that was almost like she was favored by the God of Magic, a more incredible speculation emerged in Shane's mind.
After all, Shane vaguely remembered that in this world, the origin of magic was also the Demon King.
The Demon King was the creator of Magic.
Laischa being able to wield such a power that seemed like an embodiment of the God of Magic was not meaningless.
Coupled with her appearance identical to the Demon King...
Shane's expression shifted several times, and ultimately he couldn't restrain himself, he posed a question.
"Are you also a Magic Lifeform?"
"A Magic Lifeform created with the Magic Power of the Demon King and modeled after the Demon King."
With that statement, the atmosphere around him completely changed.
It became oppressive and also Heavy.
Laischa didn't answer immediately.
But her increasingly complex expression undoubtedly told Shane the answer.
After a long time, Laischa spoke.
"Do you know?" Laischa said as if talking to herself, "A thousand years ago, after the Demon King passed away, the Old Demon Clan who refused to accept the Demon Clan's surrender had attempted to resurrect the Demon King."
