When she was very young, Livia knew that her mother was dead.

It's not because of difficult childbirth or the like, but because humans and monsters are used by humans as sources of magic materials. Precious livestock are often rushed into homes to kill and peel materials.

At that time, there was no so-called King of Monsters.

The Demon King at that time was just an ordinary high-level monster. Like other high-level monsters, it had its own territory. No one dared to provoke it, but it could not be said to be free. High-level monsters competed fiercely with each other, and their own materials

It is also extremely valuable. Many humans covet the materials on them, so you need to be careful at all times.

It is not uncommon for monsters to fight among themselves. They also have to face the hunting of elves and humans. The situation is very difficult. To put it bluntly, they are the kings of the mountain.

But Livia could no longer remember the home she had at that time. She only knew that she was happy and carefree.

Later, when his father went out to fight with other high-level monsters over territory, a group of human adventurers heard that there were newborn high-level monster cubs here and sneaked into the lair. Livia did not die, but just now

After giving birth, the mother hid Livia and turned around to lure away the human professionals.

When my father came back, he held the heads of those people in his hand, but my mother did not come back.

After that, my father began to unite with other higher-level monsters to build a country for monsters, just like humans.

A long time later, Livia was accompanied by Kara. This female dragon took the place of her mother. Her father experienced many failures and the establishment of the country was too difficult, but in the end he built a small city.

This is the first step for the country. Everyone in the Demon King's City is rejoicing, thinking that they can build a place where monsters will no longer be treated as livestock by other races.

After that, my father changed - he no longer looked like a father.

——————

"Hmm...?" Livia suddenly woke up.

Before...she seemed to have fainted because she lost control of her emotions?

How could she be so rude! She cursed herself secretly and immediately looked around to check the situation.

Then, it was still in the monster mixed-blood settlement, but it was far away from the furnace, surrounded by open space, and neatly placed fine iron plates of very good quality.

"Ah, you're awake?" A voice sounded behind Livia.

"Father - uh..." She turned around and blurted out subconsciously, but in the end she held it back.

"Are you awake?" Lu En was sitting there. The injuries on his body were almost healed. His body's healing ability was extremely strong. It could regenerate as long as there was magic power. Even without magic power, it could still be recovered by squeezing the body's functions, but afterwards

Need to add more.

"Wake up..." Livia seemed at a loss and sat there stiffly.

"You said yesterday that you would get me some medicine for my injuries. If I was really seriously injured, everyone would be dead by the time you get it back." Lu En sat on a steel plate and said with a sneer.

"I'm sorry..." Livia said weakly.

To be honest, Lu En felt that it was quite new. This cheap daughter who he thought was fierce and cold as ice suddenly became weak.

He may have guessed the reason, but in fact he had doubts from the beginning.

He can use the Demon King's body freely, and he can use skills without even needing to adjust them. Logically speaking, skills should be purely the product of his own training. Why do he understand the principles of magic runes? Why can he use fighting skills skillfully?

Why do I have a natural affinity for monsters?

And Kara's reaction, the unlucky old demon king was stabbed in the back, the appearance of betrayal and alienation, so that there is no general available in the demon king's city, everything points to the same answer.

Lu En sighed, looked at the sky, and then said:

"Tell me the reason for your betrayal."

"You don't know?" Livia looked up in shock.

"I know, I just want to hear what you say once." Lu En said.

Livia felt sad, she should have thought of it, so she nodded silently, remained silent for a long time, and finally said: "...Yes, I understand."

Then, she slowly opened her mouth and told the reason.

"A few years ago, Kara told me something..."

A few years ago, Livia was still working hard to hone her martial arts, hoping to help her father, because the Demon King's pace of establishing a country had stopped a long time ago. Now the Demon King's city is a stagnant water, stuck in its own ways, Livia feels,

That's because the strength is not strong enough, so it cannot continue to expand, so it trains itself desperately, hoping to help its father.

After she finally reaches level 8, Kara finds her and tells her that her father is dead.

"She said that you are dead and the usurper has taken over your body, so she put on full-body black plate armor to cover it up."

Lu En thought about it, and indeed, in his memory, the unlucky devil king was stabbed to death by Kara in the back while wearing full plate armor, but... after he woke up, he no longer had that armor.

Moreover, looking back further, Lu En suddenly discovered a blind spot.

All his memories... stopped at a certain point. He has no memory of Livia when he was a child, nor does he have the memory of when he first met Kara.

The memory he inherited from the Demon King was broken at a certain point in time, when the Demon King put on this suit of plate armor.

Lu En had never paid attention to this matter before, but for some reason, he never doubted such an obviously suspicious thing from beginning to end!

Why don’t I know what Livia was like when she was a child? Why don’t I have the memory of the Demon King’s wife? Why don’t I know why Kara established such a firm loyalty with me?

I didn’t know anything about so many things, but I wasn’t nervous at all. I even thought it was a normal thing.

This alone is very abnormal, and Lu En is very clear about his origins. He comes from a more modern civilized society, not this magical medieval society. Those memories are definitely not false. Although he has no nostalgia for that world, he can be sure of it.

Yes that must be true.

So...what's going on now?

Livia didn't know Lu En's psychological activities, so she continued: "I went to find you, tested the usurper, and then... found that he didn't know anything at all, and he didn't have the ambition you had.

It’s indeed fake.”

Having said this, Livia looked at the gathering place where the monsters were mixed: "That's it...this kind of ambition, you are the one who wants to save the monsters...it is completely different from other high-level monsters."

"So... Kara said she has a way to bring you back, to come back from death, but it requires a little sacrifice." Livia's voice gradually became lower and she did not continue talking.

But Lu En already understood.
