The Reborn Demon King Girl

Chapter 307 - 159: Return to the Beginning_2

She finally understood what Mohe was doing—she was in Butuo City. The sapling of the World Tree that had been planted there years ago had probably been nurtured again by Mohe over the years. Using her Demon King powers combined with the Goddess’s powers, she nourished the World Tree, causing the world to return to its "initial" form.

Yet, over the years, not a single person discovered this!

"Doro! If the world becomes your enemy, will you still love me?"

The enmity of the world is the enmity of all beings.

Mohe, possessing power over nearly everything, even the authority to manipulate fate, when she mobilized all her strength, she controlled everything and everyone with sentience. Although these things couldn’t harm Doro... nevertheless...

Doro saw his daughter wielding a Light Saber coming at him, his son gathering magical radiance, the sea of blood surrounding Lisidorwei, the mist obscuring the Wise King, Noel already summoning a sea of lightning, Rose transforming into a dragon form, and Ah Xion also drew his sword, while Adriana unleashed magic of all attributes...

Too much, too much.

Everything Doro cared about, everything Doro loved, all pointed their weapons at Doro; in that instant, everyone became Doro’s enemy.

He knew clearly that this was Mohe’s "full strength."

It was different from the day he fought Mohe alone; then, it was purely a comparison of "combat strength." However, besides combat strength, Mohe had far too many other things in this world.

But that’s far from all!

The sunlight concentrated, turning into a powerful beam that fell from the sky. The wind became sharp blades, slicing Doro’s body, the earth trembled under his feet, as if splitting open a deep abyss...

To be at odds with everything and every being.

And Doro finally understood what Mohe meant by "love" and what she wanted to verify from him.

"I love you more than this world. I think you should too."

Numerous attacks rained down on Doro, yet he neither dodged nor evaded. He simply stood silently in the void, looking at Mohe: "Does this mean I must kill them? I must destroy the world, and only when the world is left with just you and me will you believe that I love you, right?"

"Exactly! Mr. Doro! We possess great power. Even if the world is destroyed, I can recreate everything again. Even if life goes extinct, I can recreate life. Even if all important people disappear at this moment, the most important one, me, will still be by your side. The others, we can create in era after era—as long as you and I are together, I can follow your lead on anything."

Doro laughed.

"Mohe, only now do I truly realize you are indeed the Demon King, the one who instills fear. As long as it’s something you desire, something you love... I suppose even if I say now that I don’t love you, you still won’t stop?"

"If you don’t love me, then what purpose does this world serve, Mr. Doro? You pursued me so passionately, captivated me, and now, are you saying you don’t love me? If that’s truly the case, then you can kill me after I’ve destroyed the world. After all, you seem unable to do so before I destroy the world."

Doro sighed, silently enduring the attacks from others: "How innocent the world is. Regardless of how I answer you, the world must be destroyed? Isn’t this somewhat absurd? Inertia might just be your downfall."

"I think the only lifeform capable of killing me is you." Mohe’s face always held a profound smile. She didn’t seem to think Doro would disappoint her: "You should act now. Even if you don’t resist, what meaning does it have? This in itself is a form of answer. It seems I’m not as important as you say. To you, I’m merely..."

Amidst the words, Doro moved.

But Mohe had already caught hold of Doro’s hand.

"Oh?"

"Mr. Doro, ambushing isn’t becoming of a strong opponent. Before confronting me, you should battle these important people first. Remember, you must kill them."

Mohe’s body exploded into points of light, then reassembled some distance away from Doro.

Mohe was clearly serious, and she held not a trace of jest, cornering Doro with her actions. Even though he had anticipated some of it, he never imagined Mohe’s control over the world would reach such an extent.

There was undoubtedly an unspeakable relation to the Goddess.

But, right now, it no longer mattered.

For Doro, he deeply understood what Mohe desired, but—

Once again, he caught Mohe’s body. The numerous attacks were not painless for him, yet he could endure them. So, once more, he seized Mohe, and this time, she wouldn’t escape so easily.

Because Doro kissed her again.

"Um... what, what are you doing?"

"You like me, don’t you? If I kiss you, you won’t run away."

Indeed, Mohe didn’t flee, but she retorted: "You speak as if I really want you to kiss me. Your kisses are rough and overbearing, always making people uncomfortable. Who would like such a kiss?"

"Is that so?"

Yet, the fact that the young lady didn’t flee spoke volumes.

"But I do indeed love them as well. I genuinely love humanity, love the world, though not as much as I love you, but I won’t destroy them. I hope you understand this."

"But you are my only one."

"Yes."

Mohe and Doro exchanged glances as she waved her hand with a bit of dissatisfaction.

"In that case, let’s change the method."

Within Mohe’s words, Doro felt the "affection"

"Affection of the world."

Just as before, when Mohe filled the world with hostility, now she filled it with affection. Everyone loved Doro—perhaps it was originally so, but now this affection became more apparent.

The girls looked at Doro with harmonious eyes, calling his name, expecting him to come to their side.

"Is this the life you wanted?" Mohe, embraced by Doro, asked in such a way.

Doro looked at the changes of the moment and couldn’t help but say: "This is like a dream life."

"Then, you can run toward your dream life. Your dream will become reality."

Mohe’s tone sounded a bit sour.

"You really... do I really have to choose between those I care about and you?"

"Certainly, Mr. Doro. I know your nature. You want to say, ’I want them all’—but I’m not willing. I love you so profoundly, this is the first time in endless years that I’ve felt this way. I can’t allow you to have it all."

Her words were resolute.

"But I am the sole king, Mohe. You should heed my command."

"But I will be unwilling, Mr. Doro."

Looking at Mohe, Doro said: "Then, let’s do it."

"What?"

Doro directly cultivated on Mohe, fully aware of the mischief she was trying to cause...

Because time was rewinding.

During the cultivation, everything around them began to change. Mohe, who had dominion over the world, rewound the world’s time, pushing time back to the initial point.

Doro knew she wanted to return to that first moment, sincerely hoping that it would be Doro by her side through the long years.

This is what Mohe wanted.
