Mohe will have to face Doro sooner or later.

It's just like when she went up against the Goddess before.

Of course, there was a so-called "honeymoon period" where their relationship was good, as described in the Holy Record during the holy era, which was the best period for Mohe and the Goddess. This is why when Doro and others asked about her relationship with the Goddess, Mohe's answer was "lovers." Naturally, the end of the holy era and the arrival of the dark era, if Mohe had to define a symbol, it would be when the Goddess claimed the Celestial Realm, and the ground belonged to herself.

Of course, this is Mohe's own division, but if the Goddess were to divide it, it wouldn't be much different.

In this regard, Charlette and others' predictions are not wrong; it is impossible to live in harmony with the Hero Doro forever; the current peace is just "imbalance." It's because Doro is stronger than herself, because the Hero's violence is far greater than her own. Therefore, Mohe appears in front of Doro in the guise of a cute young girl.

As Doro starts to influence the world again, as he gradually "rises again," weaknesses will begin to appear on him once more.

A very simple example, now that he and Lisidorwei have conceived a child, this child is naturally Doro's weakness.

Of course, Charlette and others' prediction is somewhat correct, but not entirely. After all, how simple is such a prediction?

It's like the saying "all great affairs under heaven will split after a long time of unity and unite after a long time of division." It sounds impressive, but what is truly impressive? Is it whether a person can accurately judge when to unite and when to divide? And what choices should be made to be considered correct?

Just like how Charlette and the others believe Mohe will inevitably battle Doro again, this itself is not an issue; Doro likely has this realization in his heart as well.

But the question is—when?

When will Mohe make a move on Doro? When will Mohe have enough cards to confront Doro, and what method will Mohe use to battle Doro? What will be the outcome of their battle, who will win, and who will lose?

This kind of judgment, Charlette probably can't grasp clearly.

At least, from Mohe's own calculations, she would have to wait at least several hundred to a thousand years before making a move on Doro, and that is already considered quite fast.

What is this time mainly used for?

On one hand, it is extremely difficult for Mohe's current strength to progress further; she must surpass all her past accumulations. On the other hand, she must see if the Hero who reached her domain in just eighteen years will continue to strengthen within a century or millennium.

She needs verification.

At this point, Mohe is no longer retrieving her components; on one hand, this is to lower Doro's vigilance, and on another, she is wondering if those components might bring some surprises, just like how Adeline created the Earthly Heaven, and how the Elf Queen analyzed her liver.

She holds high hopes for this, but she is also prepared for disappointment.

More importantly, even if she retrieves the components, it won't help. Being fully restored is still not a match for Doro, and it may even provoke his hostility. Instead, it's better to let him think she hasn't recovered and seek power elsewhere.

It's not so easy to take a step further.

"Did the Dwarf King come earlier?"

Lisidorwei encountered Mohe in front of the wine cellar and casually inquired.

Mohe took out a bottle of wine from the wine cellar: "Yes, the Dwarf King came earlier. Do you want to know the content of our conversation?"

Lisidorwei shook her head: "I have no interest; even if I knew, there would be no benefit. It's just that, Lord Demon King—you and Doro..."

Her hesitant demeanor was somewhat concerning.

"What do you mean by this? Suspecting something unsavory between me and Doro? If that's really the case, what do you plan to do?"

"No, I don't mean that; I just vaguely have a bad premonition—perhaps it's presumptuous to say, but Lord Demon King, if you indeed have that sort of relationship with Mr. Doro, perhaps it would be more reassuring."

Mohe's eyes narrowed slightly, and her smile formed a dangerous curve: "Lisidorwei, even if you are that foolish, you should know what can and can't be said, what you can expect, what you can't expect, what might happen, and what won't happen."

Lisidorwei's face turned slightly pale: "But, you..."

"I don't possess human emotions."

Mohe turned around, preparing to leave with the wine bottle: "Even though I'm using a human body now, you should know this is actually to steal the Goddess's authority. It's not to embrace those foolish human emotions. No matter how much you like him, how much you love him, you better understand what you have done, Lisidorwei. You are not human, you are of the Blood Race, you are of the Demon Race."

Lisidorwei stood in place.

Indeed, if one must say where humans' hatred towards the Demon Race during the Demon King's reign came from—Vampire Ancestor Lisidorwei plays a significant role in this.

In fact, most of the Demon Race is quite high and mighty. Normally, they only have interest in other demons. Humans, with their short lifespan and lack of notable combat abilities, really don't interest demons much, like—well, mosquitoes.

If you don't see them, it's fine; if you do, you might swat them dead—after all, these things will pop up on their own; if a couple of swats don't kill them, so be it.

However, for a period of time, the Vampire Ancestor was very interested in "genius blood."

That was something she did in her younger days, and if one has to explain why she did this, it was because she wanted to emulate Mohe—her fear of the Demon King transformed into admiration for the Demon King, who was very interested in art. So Lisidorwei thought she should perhaps delve into art as well. But as a vampire, what could her art be?

Inevitably, it was blood.

The Demon King would evaluate the cuisine and drinks of each major race, and those which received her praise would become the trend of the times... Thus, vampires should be the same. When she was sucking blood, it should be filled with art.

From this point in time, Lisidorwei began to research the blood of different species, different ages, and living states.

Eventually, she researched into the stage of "talent."

The entire process was cruel and bloody.

But for the Demon Race, it was inconsequential. For the Demon King, it was inconsequential.

After all, is there anything surprising about conducting experiments on mosquitoes?

However, for the race that served as the test subjects, it was a great humiliation, a great fear and anger enough to be engraved in their racial lineage.

Lisidorwei could stay by Doro's side because she had wronged everyone, all races, humanity, the Demon Race, the Demon King—everyone except Doro. And now, Mohe once again emphasized to her what had happened in the past... the reason why she couldn't truly be in love with Doro, and why Doro could never truly love her.

To humanity, the vampire named Lisidorwei was a true executioner.

As long as Doro still considered himself human, he could never overlook this matter. And as Doro emerged from his decadence and began to re-recognize himself, his power, and his authority—the deliberately ignored fact became immensely evident.

"Rather than my matters, consider your own, Lisidorwei. You're not as composed as you think! This is my advice!"

...

Mohe came to the riverside to fish, finding it quite strange. A thousand years ago, when she traveled the world in a different identity, fishing wasn't this difficult, was it? Back then, she could catch fish! Has her luck worsened? Or is it that this body named Mohe is simply unlucky?

Could it be the Goddess is messing with me?

What's the point of doing such things?

Her advice to Lisidorwei was genuine. As the Demon King, she occasionally felt compassion and harbored sympathy for others.

Lisidorwei's emotional problems were clearly very severe. There was an inherent conflict between her and Doro. Mohe had some speculation about what the Wise King wanted to do, and if nothing unexpected happened, Doro would soon become a true Human King—not the same concept as the Wise King, but like she was during her time as the Demon King.

Without having to personally handle any political matters, just by existing, just by sitting on the throne, the world would tilt for him, all power would contour around him, and the world would change into the way he expected.

But Doro isn't me.

Though Mohe intended for Doro to come closer to her, she was very aware that Doro wasn't her, and would never become her—just like her and the Goddess, who might have many similarities but are ultimately different, thus their falling out and their near estrangement.

Those who can reach this realm won't be the same.

So...

"Can't catch any fish, it's quite annoying!"

Mohe glanced around; since Doro wasn't here, she might as well use magic to blow up the fish...

She raised her hand, then lowered it again.

Staring at the water's surface, Mohe watched for a long time and simply threw the fishing rod out, letting it sink into the river.

How annoying.

Sometimes you just feel this sudden surge of irritation, and Mohe knew she should do something to vent it.

But now she couldn't.

She had to stay true to her character.

After all, now the one who could be willful and free was Doro.

"Go back and have a drink."
