Chapter 286 Demon King of Pride, Arctos Daemon
While Alister and Zanna were discussing the Demon King approaching their royal carriage, the Demon King in question had already arrived in front of their royal carriage. Because of that, Alister had to pull the reins and halt the royal carriage.
If his target wasn't the Demon King, Alister wouldn't have halted the royal carriage.
The same went for the Demon King. If the Demon King hadn't encountered the royal carriage, he would have left the Demonic Impure Land unobstructed.
However, the Demon King felt the battle intent of Alister and Zanna and he knew that even if he wanted to take a detour and avoid the royal carriage, Alister and Zanna wouldn't allow it.
The Demon King already guessed that he was the target of these two powerhouses. But even so, the Demon King wasn't afraid.
As for why? The Demon King already planned to defeat the top powerhouses in each major race after leaving the Demonic Impure Land since his goal was to dominate the entire world.
If he feared two grand-level powerhouses and avoided them, the Demon King wouldn't be able to boast his pride and majesty to all the creatures in Fantasia!
them, the Demon King wouldn't be able to boast his pride and majesty to all the creatures in Fantasia!
Furthermore, the Demon King's action might be death-seeking since fighting and killing the top powerhouses of those major races would incur the wrath of those major races, but the Demon King was immortal. nOVe/lb-In
His confidence lay in his immortality.
As long as he didn't die, he could consume his opponent to death until his opponent became weaker due to the lack of energy expended.
The death of the Demon King would restore his energy and health to the fullest.
Because of that, the Dragon King might be able to defeat the Demon King, but it would be too ignorant and arrogant to claim that the Dragon King could last multiple battles against the Demon King.
Zanna's thoughts were the same as Alister's.
Confronting the Demon King and staring at each other face to face, Alister perceived the power of the Demon King and already judged the Demon King as a weakling. At least, the Demon King was a weakling when compared to him.
But when compared to the top powerhouse in the Transcendent World, even the top powerhouse in the Technology World which dominated the Monster World might not be as strong as the Demon King.
But who made Alister so monstrous?
However, the Demon King was very confident of his immortality to the point that he didn't think anyone in this world could threaten his life. Because of that, it was common for Demon Kings like him to look down on everyone except for the heroes.
With the death of the nine heroes, it was like removing a hanging sword that threatened his life. Since the Demon King no longer had to worry about an existence that could bypass his immortality, he became fearless and arrogant!
Even after knowing that Alister who was driving the royal carriage was stronger than him, the Demon King didn't back down and was eager to fight Alister!
'What's the use of being stronger than me? Even if the Primordial Spirit of Chaos is here, I am confident that I will not be killed. It's even impossible to seal me since my demon king authority is Pride.'
'As long as I believe that no one can seal me, then they can't!'
The confidence of the Demon King not only lay in his immortality curse but also due to his Pride Authority.
Since heroes have hero authorities, the Demon King also has demon king authorities.
Arctos Daemon, the current generation of Demon King, possessed the demon king authority of Pride.
The Pride Authority allowed Arctos to use his pride as a weapon or to extend his lifespan. It's a type of energy different from aura and mana and unique to him as the Demon King of Pride.
Moreover, pride energy was like a currency for the Demon King of Pride. As long as he had enough pride energy, he could even negate almost anything and also impose his prideful will on reality itself!
