"Kill, kill them all?!"
Saint Son's mouth hung open, her eyes blank.
Ah! It's confirmed!
That's something only a Demon would say!
She sprang up from her seat!
Her eyes held panic and unease, and her small hands waved incessantly.
"No, no, no, no!"
It's over!
Did she accidentally open some Pandora's Box?
Ugh—
Saint Son felt like crying.
She had to take responsibility!
She took a deep breath and bowed deeply, "Please, Demon Mr. Lynn, please, please—don't do that!"
She only wanted to protect the Cursed Children, but she certainly wasn't so extreme as to kill all those who opposed her!
Lynn leaned on her desk, his deep eyes gazing out the window, while he casually said, "The commission is your business; how to complete it is my business."
He was thinking about what benefits he could gain from this world.
Lynn Family currently had two development plans.
One, recruit Familiars!
The more Familiars he recruited, the more feedback he would receive, and his strength would naturally grow stronger.
Two, monster resources!
The experience needed for Familiars to level up was also of utmost importance.
It could not only increase the strength of his Familiars but also provide feedback power to Lynn.
Anything beyond these two points was unimportant!
At least before becoming a Demon King, Lynn would not consider other directions for his Familiars.
What's more, the number of people in his Familiars was pitifully small right now.
He also didn't have the extra energy to develop other projects.
Therefore.
His purpose in coming to this world was very clear.
Recruit Familiars!
This world actually had millions of special lolis!
Even if only a very small number were reincarnated as special Demons, as long as they became his Familiars, they could consistently provide him with power feedback.
Millions of lolis.
Even if they were just Inferior Demons, they could forcefully stack up his strength!
Demon King? Or Super Demon King?
Lynn's salivary glands sped up, the corners of his mouth stretched into a gradually twisted smile.
He had never felt that the strength of a Demon King, or even higher, could be so close to him!
Millions of lolis, he was determined to have them!
Anyway, he had the resources of the Dead Body World to back him up, so he wasn't afraid of not being able to support them.
And...
After being reincarnated as a Demon, the gastrea virus in their bodies would naturally be eliminated.
They also wouldn't have to constantly worry about turning into a Gastrea.
He was here to save lolis!
He was a righteous Demon!
However...
Currently, there weren't enough people in his Familiars.
It wouldn't be easy to gather all the Cursed Children with just his personal strength and that of his Familiars.
He still needed a very useful tool.
Lynn's gaze returned to Saint Son, who was looking uneasy, her eyebrows almost knitted together.
A useful tool, wasn't she right here?
Lynn looked at her, and said in a low voice, "You don't want the Cursed Children to be bullied again, do you?"
Saint Son: "!"
She took a few deep breaths, her eyes serious, "Demon Mr. Lynn, I also want to protect those Cursed Children."
Cursed Children are also human, and they should also be protected and treated fairly!
She had never changed this belief!
But!
"If all those people are killed, it will cause chaos in human society!"
Having reached her position, she actually knew a thing or two about many matters.
She also despised many people.
She detested their filth and sordidness.
But...
They were also managers of human society.
Once they suddenly died, it would lead to a power vacuum, and human social order would become chaotic.
Under the threat of Gastrea, an already turbulent society would only become more precarious!
As Saint Son, the ruler of Tokyo, she absolutely would not allow such a situation to happen!
She only hoped that Demon Mr., whom she had summoned, could understand her.
She looked worried.
Lynn suddenly chuckled softly.
"The chaos of human society?"
"In that case, wouldn't it be better to eradicate humanity?"
"Eh?"
Saint Son's brain crashed once more.
If humanity was eradicated, society would naturally no longer be chaotic, right?
Hiss—
It made a certain amount of sense.
But!
Why did Mr. Lynn suddenly go from one extreme to another?
This, this isn't right, is it?
C-could it be!
Solving problems from their root.
Is that the way a demon thinks??
Lynn ignored her, walked to the French window, and looked at the world below him.
His red pupils scanned over the humans walking on the street, holding up signs that read: "Absolutely No Forgiveness for Gastrea."
They shouted: "Drive out the Cursed Children!"
Parading through the streets.
Seeing this, Lynn grinned, and whispered softly: "This world, indeed, only needs demons. That's enough."
Ah...
It appeared!
It was the whisper of a demon!
What did "only demons" mean?
Were demons coming to invade the human world?
She...
She had indeed opened Pandora's Box, hadn't she?
Saint Son felt extremely uneasy.
However, when she followed Lynn's gaze, she fell silent.
Street parades.
Opposing the Cursed Children's Human Rights Bill.
Such situations occurred almost daily.
Even without the hearing of a demon, she understood what they were shouting.
Actually.
The reason the Cursed Children Protection Bill hadn't passed was also related to the public's indifference and opposition.
But...
Those children were protecting them, protecting Tokyo!
Saint Son was very disappointed in them.
Combining that with Lynn's words just now, she had a sudden realization.
Had humanity's actions become so bad that even a demon couldn't tolerate them?
Humans, truly, were quite a failure...
Lynn withdrew his indifferent gaze, turned around, and the sunlight shining behind him cast him into shadow.
Only his eyes, like vivid rubies, glowed brightly.
Seeing this scene, Saint Son froze completely.
A thought inexplicably flashed through her mind.
A demon standing in the sunlight...
Lynn reached out his hand towards her, letting out a light chuckle.
"How about it, do you want to become the first demon in this world?"
Saint Son stared blankly at Lynn's outstretched hand.
A demon?
Her?
"You've felt it too, haven't you?"
"Your own weakness and incompetence as a human."
Lynn's eyes seemed to shimmer with an inexplicable color, and his words mercilessly exposed Saint Son's inner fragility.
Saint Son remained silent.
"Even as the supreme ruler of Tokyo."
"You can't even pass a new bill."
Saint Son continued to be silent.
"You're disappointed in yourself too, aren't you?"
"You really want to make a change, don't you?"
Whew—
Saint Son felt a little breathless.
Lynn's words were like sharp blades, piercing her already tattered heart.
She couldn't help but recall the Cursed Children being beaten and scolded on the streets.
She remembered the Cursed Children barely surviving in the sewers.
She remembered the Cursed Children who sacrificed themselves in battles against Gastrea to protect humanity and Tokyo.
Finally, her memory settled on the meeting for the Cursed Children Human Rights Bill proposal.
Those cold rejections!
She murmured to herself: "Becoming a demon, will that change everything?"
