Primordial Soul's Rebirth

CHAPTER 318 - An Idiot.

Rohrg Ashenfang was a literary genius, well known for his strong command of every subject that was taught in the academy.

And by whatever coincidence it may be, he studied at the same academy as Seraphyra, Nitherveil Academy.

That was how both Rohrg and Seraphyra got to know each other.

One was a literary genius in the second year of the academy, while the other was the all-round genius of the academy.

However, that was all; they just knew who the other was.

Rohrg, however, knew way more about Seraphyra than she herself knew.

That was the reason why he was there to save Seraphyra, right when she needed to be saved.

Rohrg was a literary genius without a doubt, and it was not because of his regression; it was something he had in his last life as well.

But having knowledge amounts to shit in a demon empire where only power rules.

However, because of his strong memory, he remembered the dates of any and every major event that had ever happened in the demon empire of the surrounding empire.

He also knew what Seraphyra was going to face and what she was going to become, so he had his focus specially focused on her, making it possible for him to save her at the right time.

Seraphyra was never supposed to face a setback or anything from that event—not at all.

On the other hand, she was supposed to awaken something—an ability that would make her realize her real potential—and that would push her forward in her progress.

By saving her, Rohrg achieved three things.

First, the gratitude of the ancestor, who was always keeping an eye on Seraphyra.

Second, an indebted Seraphyra, who would do her best to get rid of the debt that she had on her head.

And finally, the third thing was the fact that he slowed the progress of a monstrous genius like Seraphyra.

No one needed to know about the third, though.

Rohrg was just ensuring that his path to the throne was easier.

Stay connected via empire

Getting a beauty or two along the way was just a plus point.

Seraphyra, who, after being saved by Rohrg, felt grateful yet indebted to him, slowly started to get close to him.

That did bring Rohrg some problems as Seraphyra had way too many suitors, but the way Rohrg came out as a victor even with the odds being against him only impressed Seraphyra more and more.

That image, however, is shattered now.

"My lord, just like me, there would have been thousands, if not millions, of demons all around the empire who would be doubting whether you were worthy or not.

Because of the broadcast, however, they must now be sure that they were going to be ruled over by a worthy lord—someone who is not just someone who got this throne by mere luck."

Seraphyra didn't realize that her flow had already broken and that her words were not as impactful as they would've been if spoken all together.

But what could she do? She had to save Rohrg, no matter how much of an idiot she thought him to be.

Yes, she wasn't deluded by the fact that Rohrg was right or something.

She knew he was wrong, but she was grateful for his dumbness since all of her words were really something she meant.

She really had to change her mind the moment she saw Alex and felt the momentum in his every step.

'He is the real emperor.'

That was the only thing going through her head when she gazed at the broadcast and saw Alex.

Everything about him was perfect.

"What do you want from me, then?"

Alex tilted his head, wanting for Seraphyra to get to the main point already.

He could already see where this conversation was moving toward, and he could guess what her words would be, so he urged her to move ahead with the conversation.

The readers were now getting bored.

"My lord, I have nothing but one wish from you; please do not punish the person who made it all possible.

For the sake of those thousands or millions of people, who feel grateful for the person who let them get a look at their new demon lord, I implore you to please not put that person to death."

Seraphyra let out her heartfelt words, bowing her head as deep as she could, causing the throne room to get enveloped in a pin-drop silence.

Every pair of eyes turned toward Alex, waiting for his decision.

Alex, on the other hand, kept staring at Seraphyra with a smile, causing the poor to-be antagonist to almost falter under his gaze, but she somehow remained steadfast.

It was not until the clock ticked for ten seconds did Alex's lips moved.

Those ten seconds, however, felt like an eternity for the other people in the hall.
