Chapter 536 Hyperion’s criteria for choosing a spouse

In the Demon King's Palace, whose dome is covered with celestial patterns, Hyperion looked at the fallen Kaliela with a weak, pitiful and innocent expression, waiting for the ninth-level demon to speak.

 Calliera didn't mind the princess acting stupid.

 It’s nothing more than making it clear in front of a group of big demons——

"I wouldn't force you in normal times, but now wartime is about to begin. The demons may face a test or catastrophe, and the opening of the ancestral land needs to be insured."

 The Fallen Kaliela looked at Hyperion and said.

Her meaning is also very clear. The princess needs to continue the bloodline for the royal family. Otherwise, if the princess is assassinated or dies, the ancestral land will be closed. If the blood clan really attacks, their demon clan will definitely face a huge disadvantage. .

Hyperion was stunned.

She didn't expect that Kaliera's purpose was this.

 “Can you let me think about it for a while?”

 Carliera reminded.

Hyperion wanted to fool him.

At this time, the demon clan cannot afford internal strife, let alone cause collective dissatisfaction among the big demon clan.

Hyperion finally understood that the reason why she could still maintain her status as a princess was because of Kaliela being the maintainer of rules and presiding over the etiquette of the demon clan.

"If you are too weak, you have no right to choose. In the demon world, the strong always choose the weak. You can only express your preferences as much as possible. I will follow the premise of justice that convinces all the great demons in the demon world. Find the most suitable fiancée for you among the demons."

 Calliera asked.

 The cold look on the fallen Kaliela sent shivers down Hyperion's spine.

"Please stop being willful, Your Highness Princess. Instead of handing you over to the vampires, it is better for us to control you by force. You can still sit in this position. This is the last face I can give to my old friend."

If they agree to the vampire's request, their demon tribe will lose the ability to open their ancestral land. If they refuse, they will no longer be able to maintain their status as a neutral country.

 Calliera's slight smile gradually turned into a sneer, and he spoke seriously.

As soon as the forty-five days in the shadow world were up, she ran away and returned to the living world, and the rest of it had nothing to do with her.

But she had heard Antanas and the others say that the betrothed of the royal family of the demon world must at least be a great demon.

Hyperion pursed her lips, feeling that this was a tough start.

“…That means I have to make a decision within a month, right?”

"No, the Blood Tribe has actually wanted to test us for a long time. They have proposed the idea of ​​marrying you to the Blood Tribe Marquis as a condition for long-term peace between the Blood Tribe and the Demon Tribe. If we can delay it for another month at most, we have to give the Blood Tribe an answer. Yeah, letting you choose a son-in-law before that is also a way to protect you."

 In large-scale wars, only those who end up at the end can reap the benefits. If possible, the demons don’t want to end up at the end yet.

"how long?"

 The old friend mentioned by Kaliela is obviously the previous generation of demon kings.

 “One and a half months.”

Hyperion asked.

 As a ninth-level demon, Kaliela's patience obviously has its limits.

As the princess's fiancée, you will also gain a lot of power. Regardless of whether they like the princess or not, many big demons may want to become the princess's fiancée or even her controller.

If it were directly decreed, it would not only violate the traditions of the demon world, but also offend a large number of major demon clans, making everyone even more dissatisfied.

Apart from Kaliera, the big demons present, there are other ninth-level big demons in the demon world who have not come over at the border. If an unfair ruling is made in person, it will be difficult for her, Kaliera, to follow the etiquette of the demons. In the name of dealing with other ninth-level demons.

　　　…”

Hyperion clasped her hands tightly.

 She didn’t want to be so ridiculous as to marry a demon she didn’t know.

It is definitely impossible to escape the Demon King's City by force. At most, she has developed the ability to escape from her teacher, the Ice Witch, but this obviously does not work against the ninth-level demon Kaliela.

Now we can only think of ways to put on a show and get through this crisis.

 “I prefer black hair color…You have to help me find a black-haired demon…”

Hyperion pursed her lips, muttered with difficulty, and made her request.

Her father Milaya had black hair, so she didn't lie.

 She encouraged herself mentally.

"This can be dyed." Kaliela retorted calmly.

 She believes that hair color cannot be used as a filter.

 “That…eye color I prefer…”

Hyperion grabbed the fabric on her skirt and said tentatively.

 “This can also be changed using magic.”

Carliera interrupted Hyperion before she could finish her words.

 She found the princess's request to be very strange, as if she wanted to filter out a certain big demon.

 “My betrothed must be a demon with the attribute of light.”

Hyperion's face turned redder and redder, she lowered her head and murmured.

  She is a dark demon and is naturally attracted to light demons. This is normal.

“You cannot directly limit the race. This may involve racial discrimination, which will affect the cohesion within our demon clan at this juncture. Moreover, there are not many demons who are born with light attributes among the big demon clan today.”

 Calliera was already a little impatient and felt that the princess was looking for trouble.

Moreover, she had an inexplicable feeling that the princess was at the critical moment of life and death, and she was still speaking arrogantly.

 Finally, exhaling a breath, Kaliela warned:

"All you can put forward are conditions like 'the most powerful demon' or 'the most knowledgeable demon'. Based on these conditions, we will publicly find the most suitable fiancée for you in the demon world. In this way Only by convincing the crowd and convincing the vampires can we not temporarily arrange a fake fiancée for you out of thin air. If you don't choose, you will be the strongest demon by default."

　　　…”

Hyperion was speechless, her throat felt extremely dry, and her heartbeat continued to accelerate.

 In the solemn and heavy throne room, the surrounding air seemed to be frozen with tension.

Hyperion sat on the throne, feeling the terrifying atmosphere in the palace.

Not only were the dangerous magic powers of the big demons, but beside her, Kaliela, the only one who could clearly protect her, stood quietly, her sight seemed to penetrate all appearances and reach deep into the soul.

Huberlian also clearly felt that Kaliela's patience was becoming less and less.

Just when Kaliela sighed helplessly and was about to give up the idea of ​​respecting the princess.

“Well, I like demons with artistic talent, is this okay? After a month, you let the big demons paint, and whoever paints the best, I will marry!”

Hyperion was forced to panic and could only grit her teeth and say this.

 Although saying such words made her extremely shy.

 But this is the only thing she can think of at the moment.

  “…This is fine.”

 Calliera nodded, feeling that the princess's request this time was not so willful.

The top painters in the demon world can also produce quite powerful magic props. Their paintings themselves have magical effects, and their status and status are quite noble. It is reasonable for them to be favored by the royal family.

 “I also accept the nameless great demon.”

Hyperion added.

　　　…”

This surprised Calliera.

 It seems that the princess has really made up her mind this time.

Kaliela can understand that there are indeed unknown big demons hiding in the demon world or the human country. Although they are some very dangerous guys, at this time, their demon world is only for their merits. If they can draw out the nameless big demons and Integrating it into the power of their Demon Realm Fang is a sure-fire way to make money without losing money.

"I understand. I will try my best to convey the important matter of the princess's request and select a big demon who can draw the best for you. At that time, the princess must not go back on her word, otherwise she will not It’s my fault that I can’t protect you anymore.”

 Calliera saluted and responded.

"no problem."

Hyperion gritted her teeth and responded.

She was not sure whether her hasty request would win.

 I just keep praying in my heart that there should be no demons in the demon world of this era who are better at painting than him. Never.
