.....
Even the leaders of the Demon Nations were fretting over the news regarding a new change of leadership!
But at the same time, they were also anticipating the changes that would follow this unexpected change in who lorded over them
If they played their cards right, then they might be able to come out of this situation with a more favorable outcome than what they were looking at previously.
Although they had faith that the Great Leviathan would keep them under his wing, they knew of the mythical beast's flippant personality.
And all it would take was one bad day for the Great Leviathan to decide that it no longer wanted to watch over the demon race...
If that ever happened, then a large section of the Flamecrest Empire, along with some of the surrounding areas, would be razed to the ground!
But now
There was a chance!
A chance to change their fates! To change their destiny's!
All they had to do was reach out and grasp this chance that was presented to them!
And they knew just the way
All of the Mahayana Realm Experts of the demon race honed their gazes on the voluptuous and well-endowed figure of one of their demon princesses.
-----
Princess Aya of the Demon God Empire.
She was a divinely beautiful woman with long white hair that was braided in some areas; her eyes were like sparkling rubies and dazzled in the sun with their crimson glows.
Her body was one that resembled the most sensual of succubi, and for good reason, considering that she descended from vampire and succubus parents.
Like a certain catkin girl, Aya was abandoned
The only difference being that she was left alone in her cruel family for thousands of years instead of just one.
But after such a long period of time, she ultimately got used to disappointment. And it was because of this adaptation of hers that she let out a melancholic sigh before lightly nodding, "Very well"
That was all she said before her attention was brought back to the cheerful atmosphere that surrounded the corpse-like man outside the fighting ring.
If only I had something like that Something that made me feel Feel anything
Aya's mood became a little glum, as she was going to continue spiraling; however, she was quickly taken out of her thoughts by the voices of her 'family'.
"I knew you would understand our perspective, my dear niece! I will attempt to get in contact with the new ruler right away! And from what I've heard from our Demon Overseer, the winner of this tournament is actually the disciple of the new ruler!"
One of her uncles spoke to Aya with a 'benevolent' look on his face, as he had indeed heard from his senior that the new ruler sent the Half-Step Lunar Ascendancy Realm Experts a voice transmission.
The transmission only mentioned something about keeping out of the way of 'Morningstar', not to spy on him, and also not to attract too much attention to him.
Which all went to say that the Demon Emperor's brothers would need to be discreet in their contact with this 'Morningstar' character.
Nonetheless, they were overjoyed that their 'snobby' niece had finally decided to do something for the greater good of the family!
In other words, for the greater good of them!
Observing the greedy expressions her family members were making, Aya turned her gaze away from them, focusing on the sickly man below.
She wanted to decipher just what it was that made that man's life seem so much more colorful

Meanwhile, on another side of the wide and expansive VIP stands, the AquaRing family was suddenly greeted by their Queen Mother.
"Hello, mother" Marina muttered with a slightly shaky voice.
