Chương 258: Carrion: So I'm the worst one after all?

Watching Yang Cheng and Luminas fly out of the castle one after the other, Milim and Ramiris hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not follow.

Even Leon, the "Platinum Sword King" who never cared about anything, couldn't help but look up at the sky when he saw Yang Cheng and the others leaving.

"You're also curious about who will win, right? I'm just as curious, but as the host, I can't just leave here."

Clearly, Guy is more interested in the battle between Yangcheng and Luminas than the battle between Rimuru and Clementine.

Although they are both Demon Kings, the level of Kleiman and his group is far below that of Yang Cheng and his group. In fact, it's almost a foregone conclusion, and there's no point in watching.

But Yang Cheng and Luminas are different. He was even able to withstand the barrier of the awakened demon king, but he couldn't withstand the amount of magic power they unleashed. This will obviously be a real battle between dragons and tigers.

"No matter what, Luminas is a veteran awakened demon lord; she shouldn't lose to a newcomer, right?"

The giant demon lord, Dagluel, also known as the "Wrath of the Earth," is quite optimistic about Luminas.

"You guys are underestimating Yang Cheng too much. Although he only recently awakened, I noticed when we clashed before that his magical energy and strength probably far exceed those of an average awakened demon king."

The reason Qi Yi chose to let things go was largely because he was interested in Yang Cheng, but another reason was that his intuition told him that Yang Cheng was not someone to be trifled with.

He was clearly one of the oldest demon kings, and in terms of strength and seniority, Guy wouldn't back down even when facing Milim.

But now, facing a rookie demon king who has just started out, the other party gives him a sense of danger, which is quite unbelievable, isn't it?

The last person who could give him this feeling was Leon, who fell from hero to demon king, and now there is Yang Cheng.

Furthermore, Guy could sense that Yang Cheng's sense of danger was much stronger than Leon's!

"These newcomers are really something else. Whether it's Yang Cheng, who fought Luminas outside, or Rimuru in front of me, I feel like I'm no match for them at all."

Dino, the "Sleeping Ruler," who always looked sleepy and kept yawning, first looked at Yang Cheng in the air, then at Rimuru in front of him, and said with a self-deprecating laugh.

Luminas's unexpected intervention was something Frey and Rimuru hadn't anticipated.

Frey and her group originally planned to corner Clayman so that the person behind him might come to his rescue, and they could then take the opportunity to wipe them all out.

But now that Clementine is putting on an act, Frey is also involved. Even if Rimuru has awakened, he obviously cannot defeat them both and force them into a desperate situation.

"Damn it, I'm not going to be the Demon King anymore! Rimuru, I'll help you take down Clayman!"

King against king, general against general. When Ranga faced the Nine-Tailed Fox brought by Clayman, and Ultimar and her group faced the original fake Demon Lord Valentine, Rimuru and his side were clearly outnumbered.

Rimuru faced two awakened Frey and Clayman in a one-on-one battle. Even though Frey held back, he still couldn't gain any advantage.

While Frey hesitated about whether to switch sides early, Carrion, who had been watching the battle, saw Rimuru falling into a disadvantageous position and immediately slammed his fist on the table and joined the battle without hesitation.

If the Demon King is forbidden from civil war, then Carrion would not be the Demon King, thus not violating the rules set by Guy.

Moreover, after today's events, Carrion has come to realize that with his current strength, he is not worthy of sitting at the same table as the others present.

Frey, who was previously weaker than him, has now awakened and reached a level that he could hardly reach.

Kleiman is going to die today. In other words, of the original "Ten Demon Kings", after today, he is the only one left who has not yet awakened.

Carrion is a respectable figure, and it's better for him not to be a demon king at all than to be ridiculed as a demon king later!

Seeing Carrion join the battle, Guy and the others did not try to stop him, after all, he had said that he would give up the position of Demon King, and Carrion seemed to have a great grudge against Clayman.

Adding to the battle, Carrion glanced at Frey and Clement, then decisively chose the latter as his opponent, and punched Clement directly in the face.

Clayman, who was fighting Rimuru, was caught off guard by Carrion's sneak attack. He was punched in the face and his body spun out and flew out, directly imprinted into the wall!

"Klayman, I've had my hated you for ages! Let's settle this score here today for attacking our Beast Kingdom!"

Clayman, who had been punched by Carrion, spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth. His previous elegance was clearly gone, and he glared angrily at Carrion, shouting, "Carrion, you son of a bitch! It was Frey who attacked your Beast Kingdom, what does that have to do with me?!"

"Stop trying to fool me! Do you really think I'm stupid? Do you think I can't see that Frey is already under your control? And wasn't it you, you treacherous villain, who orchestrated her attack on the Beast Kingdom?"

To be honest, Carrion also wanted to settle scores with Frey, but although he was impulsive and reckless, he wasn't a complete fool.

He had fought Frey before when she attacked the Beast Kingdom, and he was no match for her at all.

Frey is now significantly stronger than when she attacked the Beast Kingdom!

If Carrion were to confront Frey now, he feared he would be the one getting thoroughly humiliated.

So after much deliberation, Carrion had no choice but to choose Clement, the mastermind behind it all.

Moreover, in terms of pure strength, Clayman is the only demon king present whom he can defeat. He can't very well let a dignified Lion King go and fight Clayman's subordinates, can he? Carrion also has his pride.

"Carrion, you forced my hand, so don't blame me for killing you!"

Kleiman was well aware that he was being taken advantage of.

His pride and self-esteem wouldn't allow him to be trampled on like that, so when his villainous aura was triggered, he instantly went berserk.

A powerful burst of magical energy erupted from Kleiman's body, causing it to swell and his tuxedo to tear in an instant.

Carrion, who had originally intended to press his advantage, was swept away by a huge arm before he could get close to Clayman again.

When he climbed out of the rubble again and saw Kleiman's posture, he was completely dumbfounded.

Clementa also awakened, and he did so during battle!

Wasn't he supposed to be the most talented and gifted of the three rookie powerhouses?

Frey awakened, and now Clemente has awakened too. Does that mean Carrion is the clown?
