Primordial Soul's Rebirth

CHAPTER 321 - Tiring.

As Alex had asked for, many topics that must be focused on were brought to light, and Alex gave everyone some kind of temporary solution.

He didn't actually want to solve these problems right now; at this moment, he just wanted to know the situation of the empire.

"My lord, the demonic beats in my territory are acting strangely these days.

They, who used to stay in the forest, are now raiding demon settlements.

We haven't been able to find the source of this problem yet, so please, my lord, give us direction."

A marquise of the empire had put forth this topic.

He was the one who guarded the empire from the wilderness.

As a marquise of the empire, that guy was strong—very strong, as he was a legendary 2-ranker.

"Hmmm..."

Alex, who was using his incubus empathy to observe the reactions of everyone, already had some suspects, but he didn't say anything for now; instead, he turned toward Valerius, who was now sitting on his own throne.

"Valerius, send more demons to defend the area. As for a permanent solution, I will visit your place soon enough for that."

Alex had a hunch that things were not as simple as they seemed, and he even suspected the involvement of a protagonist or antagonist.

So, he decided to move on with just that.

His order, however, was more than what the marquise could ask for, so that guy happily accepted it.

This was a demon empire; no demon cared for others, and that was the reason the marquise had to ask Alex for help without much hope.

"I am deeply grateful, my lord!"

So, the marquise just went down on his knees and thanked Alex for his help.

Even if he was a demon, he still had a family he cared for, and his family lived at the borders with him, which exposed them to danger just as much as anyone in that area.

Just like the Marquise, many more problems were raised—so many that the hearing went on for hours.

During that time, many demons had to reassess their image of the new demon lord.

There were few, however, who didn't care about what Alex did or how wisely he handled the situation.

The only things that were visible to them were Alex's bad points.

The things he did wrong, and since there were none they could think of, they focused on Alex's nature.

Now, they were thinking of Alex as a lustful demon lord.

Why?

Because Alex was being partial.

Yes, that's what it looked like to them.

Grum made the same request, and he was willing to sacrifice all of his contributions just to save his grandson, but Alex denied him.

Nyx was standing quite far, keeping an eye on the ancient door.

Then the last one, Azaroth, seemed to want to rush off behind Seraphyra, who, along with others, left the hall.

"Go on," and Alex, who could guess exactly what that guy wanted, gestured for him to go on.

"My lord."

Azaroth didn't stand on ceremony, he accepted Alex's gesture and then bowed his head toward Alex.

Alex nodded his head, and then...

*Woosh*

With a woosh, Azaroth disappeared, leaving the hall and going to have a heart-to-heart talk with his granddaughter.

"...."

After that, silence enveloped the throne room once again.

This time, however, the silence was not suffocating.

The calm rhythm of breaths was heard, along with some eventual rustling sound of Alex and Luna's clothes when they moved even a little.

But the silence was soon broken by Alex.

"Nyx."

He called out for Nyx.

*Swoosh*

The next second, Nyx, who was standing a distance away, appeared right in front of Alex's throne, on his knees and bowing his head.

"Call the best guy you have under you; I have a task for him."

Alex, who had his eyes closed, answered without even opening his eyes, and although he didn't want to, Nyx still nodded his head.

"As you wish, my lord."

With those words...

*Woosh*

Nyx vanished, leaving behind nothing but a wooshing sound of air being cut.

Now, it was just Alex, Luna, Valerius, Malak, and Morvan in the throne room.

All of them were just sitting in their spots and relaxing, unaware of the impact that the live broadcast had on the whole world.
