Chapter 218

~10 min read 1,983 words

Broly's words left Soket completely silent; her mouth twitched before she answered the boy's question: "The one who turns into a berserk magic beast is you and Yunyun's future child, but right now the other party hasn't even been born yet."

After she finished speaking, Soket's gaze was somewhat subtle; given the boy's current age, having a child with Yunyun would probably take several more years before it could be done.

"My and Yunyun's child?" Broly frowned; he still couldn't understand the matter of having children, and directly asked: "Then how can I not have children with Yunyun?"

Soket: "..."

She, a mature unmarried — and even unattached — Red Demon Clan young woman, being asked this kind of question about not having children by a child, would really die of embarrassment!

"That's something for when you've grown up, and when you and Yunyun are doing certain things you need to pay attention, for example remember to bring a sheath made of sheep intestine, or external ejaculation and such."

"Doing certain things, which things are those?"

Broly asked in confusion, and just as Soket, not wanting to be looked down on by a kid, was preparing to give the boy in front of her a popular science lesson on adult exercise, she was stopped by Yunyun.

"Miss Soket, hurry up and speak the proper business; what child turning into a berserk magic beast, it's all impossible to happen, this must be your divination making a mistake, right?"

Yunyun's face was red; she believed Soket's divination had erred.

"That's not necessarily so."

Soket shook her head, looked at Broly, and asked: "Is there anything special inside your body, like the bloodline of a werewolf or vampire that gets excited, or even goes into a frenzy, upon seeing the full moon?"

"I don't know." Broly shook his head; he truly didn't know. "But my father used to instruct me not to look at the moon in the sky, especially when it's a full moon."

Hearing this, Soket wasn't surprised; she looked at Yunyun and said: "If that's the case, it's easy to understand; your future child with him might inherit this bloodline of his, and upon seeing the full moon, transform into a berserk magic beast, thereby losing reason."

"Then what should we do?"

"Either don't have children, or after having children, make the child not look at the moon when it's full."

Soket gave her advice.

"I understand."

Yunyun nodded, committing this matter to heart, but then immediately reacted — wasn't she testing whether Miss Soket's divination ability had made a mistake?

How did it turn into her giving herself a future divination, reminding herself of precautions to take after having children in the future?

"Ah, our Red Demon Clan is finally going to have descendants with power hidden in the depths of their bodies?!"

Soket said with a face full of expectation; the Red Demon Clan usually has many people who set themselves up as having some dangerous forbidden power sealed inside their bodies.

However, the majority are just boasting settings; but in the future, after Yunyun gives birth to a child that transforms into a berserk magic beast, their clan's bloodline will truly possess this hypothetical hidden power.

If ordinary people learned of this situation, they'd probably feel it's dangerous, ominous, monstrous, but this is the Red Demon Clan; having this kind of setting, even the Clan Chief would probably feel proud of his daughter.

"Miss Soket, then you still haven't solved the mystery of why Huihui becomes the Demon King?"

"Uh, almost forgot~"

Soket reacted, but also became somewhat troubled; she couldn't determine if her divination had made a mistake, and couldn't figure out how Huihui, who only knows Explosion Magic, could possibly become the new Demon King in the future.

As she thought, Soket's gaze shifted to Broly, and she suddenly thought of a good idea.

"Divination is actually using magic power to deduce future information based on each person's current conditional circumstances.

And how far a person can be divined mainly depends on the diviner's ability; my ability is only enough to deduce the scene of Huihui becoming the Demon King, yet I don't know exactly how she becomes the Demon King.

However, a person's divination has a limit, but if one can divine the close persons around the target divined to the limit, then by obtaining other divination information, increasing the conditions, one can further deduce the future of the person divined to the limit.

Now, I've already collected future information from your side, Yunyun, and discovered that future Huihui is also living together with you all.

So, just need to divine more of Huihui's close persons, and we might obtain the truth of why Huihui is able to become the Demon King."

After speaking, Soket directly asked Broly: "Are you willing to let me divine you?"

"That's of course, I also want to know how I become the Demon King."

Broly hadn't spoken yet when Huihui came behind him, pushed him to sit on the divination seat's chair, and leaned by his ear with a very A tone: "Rest assured, after I become the Demon King, I'll definitely treat you well!"

There's a saying: a man with money turns bad, but the meaning of this phrase actually refers to how, after gaining sufficient confidence, a person may become carried away.

Coincidentally, Huihui belongs to this type of person; although she currently lacks sufficient capital to support her confidence, her future self already has it, doesn't she?

Right now, Huihui, upon learning her future is to become the Real Demon King, has confidence bursting through the roof; the inferiority complex that faintly existed in her heart during the process of getting along with the boy, stemming from her origins as the eldest daughter of a poor family, has been swept clean at this moment.

Even now, Huihui feels that becoming Broly's wife or something is completely totally OK, and in the future she'll still be the one pressing down on Yunyun's head, the primary wife.

"Okay."

Broly saw the other party's happiness value rising, and didn't oppose, nodding in agreement.

"Then, this is the third divination today!"

Soket nodded, then used her full power; she wanted to see just how much of a playboy this boy's future was, and how many sisters he'd found for Huihui and Yunyun.

"Appear for me, (the openly harem-opening little ghost's) future~"

The crystal ball lit up with light; the crystal ball's light shone to its utmost, the crystal ball went out, turning a hazy gray.

Soket's body, which had stood up, slumped back onto the chair beneath her; Yunyun, watching the scene that had just occurred, asked in some confusion: "Miss Soket, what did you see?"

"I saw nothing."

Soket answered; looking at her scrapped crystal ball, she felt somewhat like wanting to cry but having no tears.

"What does seeing nothing mean?"

Huihui was somewhat dissatisfied; she was still full of joy wanting to know how she becomes the Demon King.

"Seeing nothing means this child's power is too strong, he's already become an existence whose future I cannot divine."

"How is that possible, Soket, aren't you reputed to be the world's strongest diviner who can even precisely predict the Demon King's movements?"

Huihui somewhat didn't believe her words.

"The Demon King's own combat ability isn't strong; forget it, anyway you just need to know one thing: this boy who wants both of you to be his wives in the future, his current power already surpasses the Demon King.

And it might even be far, far exceeding the Demon King; otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to break my top-grade divination crystal ball."

Soket spoke with some heartache still; just this crystal ball alone occupied a good portion of her principal.

"Then like this, don't we not know the reason Huihui will become the Demon King in the future?"

Yunyun asked, and Huihui had already shown a pained expression; not knowing how she becomes the Demon King, she also doesn't know how she should act.

Although she previously said she'd go join the Demon King Army, that was completely just boasting; after all, even she knows her own Red Demon Clan's relationship with the Demon King Army is very bad.

I'm afraid even if she went to the Demon King Army, it would just be a sheep entering a tiger's mouth — sending herself to her death.

"No, the truth of how Huihui became the Demon King, I think I've already figured it out."

However, Soket spoke these words.

"So, how exactly did I become the Demon King?"

Hearing this, Huihui immediately perked up and asked.

"Huihui, you actually became the Demon King by relying on being a parasite!"

Soket pointed directly at the girl's nose and said.

"Ah?"

Yunyun exclaimed.

"No, how am I relying on being a parasite to become the Demon King?"

After freezing for a moment, Huihui slapped the table very dissatisfied.

"Miss Soket, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll go spread the news in the village that your divination is unreliable and that you slander customers!"

"Want to know the truth? Then please look at your previous divination content!"

Facing Huihui's threat, Soket remained immovable, took out a spare crystal ball and produced the evidence.

"Come, look closely at this scene after you became the Demon King — did you see Broly's figure behind the chair? Look carefully……"

Under Soket's manipulation, the pixel-style divination image gradually became as clear as reality, and she aimed the lens at those Demon King Army soldiers beneath the Skeleton Throne, giving a close-up of these soldiers' gazes.

Those Demon King Army soldiers appeared to be revering Huihui's power, but their gazes were actually directed at Broly behind Huihui.

"I also thought of this possibility after failing to divine for him, suddenly recalling the future scene Huihui just divined, going through it once in my mind, and only then discovered this detail.

Rather than saying the future Demon King Army soldiers fear you, Huihui, as the future Demon King, it's more accurate to say they fear him standing behind you."

Soket pointed at the boy.

"So Huihui being able to become the Demon King isn't due to Huihui's own power, but relying on Broly's power?"

Yunyun summarized the divination lady's words, and Soket nodded.

"How is that possible?"

Huihui widened her eyes, seemingly unable to believe this claim.

"How is it impossible? Otherwise, with your current strength, ask yourself honestly — can you really become the Demon King?"

"This……"

Huihui began to waver; she found herself unable to refute this matter.

"The Demon King identity requires sufficient power to support it. The Current Demon King has powerful group support ability, while you should be the powerful Future Husband, forcibly pushing you onto the Demon King's position and suppressing the Demon King Army corps with absolute power, letting you have a Demon King's job."

"Speaking of which, Huihui, you said before that you wanted to defeat the Demon King and replace him to become the New Generation Demon King, right?

And if Broly knew Huihui had this wish, would he think of fulfilling it for her?

Just like before, Huihui wished to quickly accumulate enough Skill Points to learn Explosion Magic.

And after her birthday, you brought us more High-level Monster Ingredients Bento like that."

This is a detail the meticulous Yunyun noticed.

"I think, I would."

Broly thought for a moment, feeling he really might do that, and at the same time realized Aqua Master only needed to solve the Current Demon King, not the Next Demon King.

If at that time he knew Huihui had the wish to be the Demon King, he might really push her onto the Demon King's throne.

"So, I still can't escape the identity of being a parasite?"

Huihui went completely numb.
