When Mohe walked out from Doro's room, she happened to see Adriana standing at the door. Adriana seemed flustered, unsure of what to do, her hands seemed not to know where to put.

"Miss Adriana, this is not a good habit, what were you doing just now?"

"Ah! I, um, I needed to find the One King Your Majesty, but it was inconvenient to disturb earlier, so I... could only wait here."

Mohe's dark eyes flowed with a hint of mockery, as she took a step forward, "Ah!"

"! What happened to you!"

"Who spilled water here, almost made me slip? Miss Adriana, as a professional maid, how can such a thing be tolerated? Perhaps you should find a way to clean this up."

Adriana's face turned crimson, and she hurriedly fled, "I, I'll go get something to clean it!"

She could clearly use magic to clean it—

"Mohe, don't tease Adriana too much."

"Eh~ Mr. Doro is so gentle, isn't he? Obviously, he didn't show any mercy when punishing someone earlier, let alone... Miss Adriana has been watching from outside for quite some time, could it be that you're also excited about this?"

"..."

Mohe grinned and left the place.

After a while, Adriana entered the room.

"The One King Your Majesty, summoned by you, I have come to your side, is there anything you need me to do?"

Doro looked at her, "Something, of course—have you not seen Lisidorwei lately? Actually, our child is about to be born, and she's been watching over the egg... Of course, I'm not asking you to guard the egg, but rather about what comes after... When my child is born, I hope you can be his teacher and guide him."

"Me?!"

"You don't want to?"

"Not—not exactly, it's just that my knowledge is shallow, and I have no experience with children. If it's about educating someone, perhaps Miss Mohe is more suitable; her long years and wisdom can answer any question from the child and surely educate them well—if I take a step back, Miss Rastina is also a very suitable candidate. My identity is really…"

She was once one among those who betrayed Doro, her identity in a certain sense could be said to be very sensitive. She doesn't believe Doro would truly give her such a task—could this be a test? Although she feels Doro wouldn't do such a thing, it goes back to past misunderstandings they had about Doro, she now avoids presumptions about his intentions.

Doro raised an eyebrow, "Why wouldn't I let Mohe teach my child, you should understand clearly. Although she's willing to submit to me now, for the ancient Demon King to truly love me is an extremely difficult task; she has always sought opportunities—entrusting the child's education to Mohe would undeniably expose my greatest weakness to her. I haven't yet considered having Mohe bear my children because I know that would also become a bargaining chip for her against me."

Demon King Mohe.

Mohe is someone Doro genuinely likes, loves, a feeling entirely unlike the ones he had for the members of the Hero squad. But similarly, Doro holds the greatest vigilance against Mohe in the world, even going as far as to view her with malice... He's right.

No one can underestimate the Demon King's will, no one in history has ever defeated a Demon King, nor has anyone seen a Demon King in failure... No one knows what a Demon King will do once defeated. There's no problem in holding any kind of vigilance against a Demon King. She could erupt at any moment.

But if entrusted with the task—

"If it was simply about teaching and guiding, perhaps Charlette would be more suitable than me, as she is far more patient."

"She has yet to find her path, and choosing her isn't as good as choosing you, you are mine too."

I'm his possession?

Adriana slowly raised her head and saw Doro's gaze, which contained nothing that could be called tenderness, totally different from the gentle gaze belonging to A·Gedora in the past, yet—she still felt redeemed.

In fact, she was a foolish woman; the balance of the world... beings as powerful as these would cause everything to collapse towards them—they once gave examples to other girls, explaining the dangers of Demon Kings, explaining Doro's threat, but people and objects cannot actually be compared, no matter how similar the phenomenon, it cannot be applied to people, cannot be applied to life.

The Demon King is like an infinite gravity source, causing everything to collapse towards the Demon King, but correspondingly... the closer to the Demon King, the more likely it is for beings like Doro to be born.

Perhaps, Doro becoming the being he is today is not because of anything else but simply because he is most like the Demon King, right from the start, he was different from the woman's memory of A·Gedora, thus Feiker couldn't reach that realm, but Doro could.

Thus, adjusting balance is so laughable!

She didn't have the power to adjust balance herself; if she had the power to adjust such balance, then she would be the greatest imbalance, so how could she adjust herself?

Standing here now, with Doro declaring she is his property—she feels she is happier than anyone else, happier than Adeline, happier than Charlette, happier than the hidden Nephilim, even happier than the Snow Elf Elf Roland sisters. She should feel honored by this.
