Chapter 190: A New Beginning

Ellie frowned when she heard this, and hesitated, "But he may not agree."

"So when he wakes up, I'm going to talk to him myself."

"You don't want to tell him the truth, do you?"

"It's better than if he knew it himself."

"Can't you think of a more conciliatory way?"

"Don't worry, that kid is much stronger than he looks, he can handle it..."

"Where do you get your confidence?"

"The intuition of the Demon King~"

"Please, are you kidding?"

"If you don't feel at ease, you can come with me, and if you think there's anything wrong with that kid, you can stop me immediately, how about it?"

Ellie hesitated for a moment, but was finally forced to nod her head in agreement, "That's it."

"As for the rest of the people in the church, do you think you can transfer them to the nearby church first, and then let the Holy See make proper arrangements later?" I asked Maria, who was beside me.

"No problem, I can arrange this."" Iceberg Grim Reaper" nodded confidently.

"No need, I and these children will not go anywhere~" To the surprise of all of us, the attitude of the priest and the children was quite resolute in the face of the proposal to relocate.

"But it's dangerous for you to stay here."

"Of course I understand that, but I've been here for almost thirty years, and I have a lot of affection for this place, and this is my home, and it's also the home of these children, and even though the city is ruined now, we can rebuild it as long as this church is still there."

"And how do you live?"

"We can farm, we can graze, and although the environment here is harsh, it's not a problem to feed a hundred and ten people. And what could be more terrible than the Final Judgment?"

Not only the priests, but also the children insisted on staying, no matter how much we lobbied, it was useless, and in the end we had to accept their opinions, after all, except for dragons like Antonla, as human beings, we can mostly understand how important "home" is to a person, and many times it is not just a room, a city, or even a belief that supports people to live.

As for Malfoy, when he came to his senses, I talked to Ellie about it, and although I could see that he was somewhat aware of the matter, when he heard that he might become a demon at any time, the beautiful boy's eyes still flashed with horror.

"Actually, you don't need to be too afraid, we have now mastered the method of reversing the demonization process, but it will take a little time."

"You don't have to comfort me, Mr. Demon..."

"You can call me Kane~"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kane... I just wonder how long I'll be able to stay human?"

"At least for a few months, I don't know exactly how long, after all, this is the first time I've encountered this situation, but please trust us to do our best to get you back to normal."

"What does it feel like to be a demon?" Malfoy hesitated and asked.

"I don't know."

"Aren't you a demon?"

"I'm in a bit of a special situation, I can say that I can be both a demon and a human, strictly in between."

"Wouldn't that be painful?"

"It's good to get used to it..."

"How can you get used to such a thing," Malfoy said, burying his head between his knees, looking extremely sad.

I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable when I saw this, and immediately reached out and touched Malfoy's head, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Malfoy, everything was caused by me, I swore that I would find a way to cure you, but because of this, I hope you can go with us, of course, this road must be full of dangers, and if you don't get it, you will have to worry about your life at any time, so if you don't want to, we won't be reluctant~"

"No, sir, I'll go with you." Malfoy suddenly raised his head and said categorically.

"Are you sure? I'm not kidding." I'm solemn.

"Of course, I don't want everyone to see me turn into a demon~"

"Afraid that everyone will dislike you?"

"No, I just don't want to hurt everyone." Malfoy said with a sincere face.

"You're such a good boy, and I promise you'll do everything you can to keep you safe." I smiled and touched his head as I turned to look at Ellie and asked for her opinion.

"Malfoy, you've really figured it out? This is no joke." Ellie was obviously still a little uneasy.

"Yes, Sister Ellie, I think very clearly, it is better to let me die than to turn into a demon in front of everyone, as long as I can return to human beings, I am willing to take any kind of risk."

Seeing Malfoy's resolute attitude, Ellie didn't want to say anything more, the whole thing was settled, because Waldehuus had achieved his goal, so he promised not to embarrass the church people in the future, and even give some help if necessary, but just in case, and in order to help the children rebuild their homes as soon as possible, we still deliberately left some people and supplies, and the rest of the people plus the beautiful boy Malfoy embarked on a journey to the Valley of the Wizards, I don't know if it was providence, or coincidence, It rained in Madowso on the day I left, and the gloomy weather was somewhat unpleasant, but for this city on the edge of the desert, rain sometimes means life and hope, of course, the city is not a crop, it will not grow after a rain, but for the devastated Madowso, it is a new beginning...

After leaving Madoso, we headed all the way to the west, originally we were worried that Heavenly Court would continue to launch a pursuit, although at this time my mana has increased greatly, but if Heavenly Court really exerts all its strength, I am afraid there is still only a dead end, but strangely since then, Heavenly Court has been immovable, making it difficult to figure out what those guys above are thinking, compared to the Earth Realm is obviously more lively, due to the destruction of Valdes and Madoso City successively, the entire human world has been boiling, and many people believe that the legendary "doomsday" is comingThe whole society has fallen into panic and chaos, and even at this time, there will still be people who want to get a hand before the "end times", under the pretext of ineffective response, many forces have begun to challenge the rule of the Holy See, all kinds of open and secret battles one after another, and mankind seems to have welcomed the arrival of the "end times" in advance.

"Did you do all this? Mr. Demon King." Looking at the endless stream of dead bodies and refugees on the road, Malfoy asked me with a sad face.

"No, but it's all because of me... Speaking of this, I couldn't help but fall into deep self-remorse.

"Can't you find a way to stop it?"

"Haven't we been doing that all the time? It's just that I can't do it. “

"Is there something that even the Demon King can't do?"

"Of course, the Demon King is only good at destroying, never knowing how to save. And again, I'm not the Demon King... "Since the destruction of the city of Madowso, and the realization that he can be demonized at any time, Malfoy's values seem to have been completely turned upside down, and lately he has become more and more interested in demonic things, knowing that before that, as a devout believer, he would never do anything, not even even think about it, but maybe out of guilt, or sympathy, I always try to answer for it, and one of the side effects of this is that he always likes to call me "Mr. Demon King" instead of Kane, but it's no wonder, Even a lot of adults can't completely separate me from the Demon King, let alone a child.
