Grayfia closed the door, followed Ryan quietly, and went to the hall on the first floor with him.
After clearing out the personal belongings of the castle's original owner, the hall looked even more spacious than before. Even if a ball for a hundred people was held here, there would be more than enough space.
The group of demon soldiers did not kneel together in the center like they did yesterday. It seemed that Grayfia ordered them to continue their original patrol mission around the castle to prevent attacks from outsiders.
At the innermost part of the hall, the throne was replaced with a new one overnight.
The overall color is black, and it is engraved with three pairs of blade-like wing patterns, which are somewhat similar to the "Dragon's Shadow" when it transforms into wings.
This throne was probably prepared by Grayfia, right?
Thinking about this, Ryan sat on it. Hmm... it was soft and indeed much more comfortable than the hard, broken seat yesterday.
"Lord Ryan."
Grayfia, who was standing on a step away from Ryan, turned around and faced him to report.
"All the soldiers of the Lucifuge family are willing to surrender, obey your orders, and fight for you!"
"oh?"
Upon hearing the news, Ryan showed a somewhat surprised expression. Wasn't she said that those demons respected the Demon King's government more than their own leader?
Perhaps Grayfia used some "special means". Ryan did not ask in detail, but smiled at her.
"Well done."
"This is what I should do."
Grayfia bowed her head humbly.
"By the way, tell me about the current situation of the demon race."
Ryan said.
Now that we have the troops, it is time to decide on the next course of action.
"yes."
Grayfia nodded and began to explain in detail.
On the Demon King's government side, apart from the Lucifer family who did not want to get involved in this civil war, the three families of Leviathan, Beelzebub, and Asmodeus held the most important power.
Among them, the commander-in-chief of the entire Lucifer army in the past was Bidleid Bashalun Beelzebub, the son of the devil Beelzebub. It can be said that he is the true ruler of the current underworld.
Next is Tsufaame Tereaku Leviathan, the daughter of Leviathan, and Damaidosu Zereikel Asmodeus, the son of Asmodeus.
The strongest fighting force of the Demon King's government is composed of the armies of the three families of the Demon King's sons and the six families directly under Lucifer.
The revolutionaries against the Demon King's government are mainly composed of the remaining families of the seventy-two pillars, such as Gremory, Sitri, Astaroth, and Glasya-Labolas, who are dissatisfied with the current Demon King's government.
The main reason why the bloodlines of the four great demon kings can dominate the demon clan and become demon kings is that their strength is difficult for ordinary demons, or even the seventy-two pure-blooded demons to contend with.
Therefore, according to common sense, the combat power of the Rebels should be far inferior to that of the Demon King's Faction.
However, outside the four major demon families, there were four special beings whose magic power was no less than that of the demon bloodline.
They are Sirzechs from the Gremory family, Ajuka from the Astaroth family, Serafall from the Sitri family, and Falbium from the Glasya-Labolas family.
Among them, Serafall and Falbium possess enormous magical power equivalent to that of a demon king.
Sirzechs, Ajuka, and the 'dead Rizevim' were all "transcendents" who had surpassed the magical limits of their own demon race.
It was precisely because of the four of them that they suppressed the candidates for the next generation Demon King that the Rebels were able to avoid being at a disadvantage in the confrontation between the Demon King faction.
However, looking at it this way, it is really not easy for the "Devil King Faction" to hold on until now without collapsing.
This was Ryan's first thought after listening to Grayfia's explanation.
You know, the difference in strength between the Transcendent and the Demon King is not just a little bit, but a whole dimension.
The Demon King's faction has been able to persist until now, and it is all thanks to Grayfia who has been dedicated and fought bloody battles!
However, now that Grayfia has led his troops to Ryan's side, and the Demon King's biggest trump card, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, was also killed by Ryan easily. The defeat of the Demon King's faction is only a matter of time.
"Master Ryan, I personally recommend that you prioritize unifying the forces of the Demon King Faction over the Rebels Faction."
Grayfia, who also noticed this, looked at Ryan and made a suggestion.
Compared to the Rebels who have two transcendents and two demon king-level beings in charge, it is easier and less labor-intensive to deal with the demon faction which has only four demon king-level beings.
However, thinking carefully, even the transcendent Rizevim was beheaded and killed instantly without lasting a single round at Ryan's hands. Grayfia felt that it didn't seem to make any difference which side to deal with first. For her master, it seemed to be effortless.
Is this the benefit of being powerful?
Grayfia couldn't help but think.
