"It seems you are not as simple as we thought, Silva, but since you feel so strongly about refusing to be under us, we will give you time. In a few months, the awakening will happen, and you will take the actual role of demon king, while we will begin to teach you what is needed. In the time you have, round up whatever task the Goddess gave you, because you must come to start your work as the demon king regardless of anything, so keep that in mind," one of the demon kings spoke. Silva didn't want to argue more about it; he had already managed to stop them from taking harsh decisions. He wasn't confident that he would be able to escape Elaine. This was not a matter of stats and power levels; she had some things that he didn't. For example, she had her curse. Silva had never seen a curse in action, but the fact that it was the thing needed to boost you and make you a demon king made it evidently clear that it was extremely powerful. And there was also the understanding of laws, which he was certain that she had a lot of. When people reach a certain level of power, it is no longer about strength, but more about techniques, styles, and abilities.

I'll be taking some movements that might not sit well with anyone, but as per our deal, you are to hold up until after the time frame," Silva said. "Fine, we all agree to that, but we will still be watching you. If whatever you do threatens the peace and stability of everything, we will stop you." "That's fine by me," Silva said and walked out. He took one last look into the room and left. As he walked down the hallway, he started thinking. The only bad side to this idea was the fact that he didn't know what to expect and could probably get lost inside the forest. So if he wanted to enter, he would need to meet the emperor and discuss if there was a way that he could escape if he entered. If there was a way, then he would definitely take that gamble and enter. He would also have to prepare his own countermeasures in case the way that the emperor said he could get out failed. For now, it was not wise to rush it; he needed time to do it well. He had a lot on his plate, and rushing it would absolutely do no good. --- "So what did you and the demon kings discuss with Silva?" Greenwood asked. He reclined into the couch while facing Elaine, who was opposite him across the table. "Nothing much. We just tried to assess his stand. I don't know if he noticed that, but his answers were all well thought out. For one, I don't think we have to worry about him siding with the humans. He is a prideful one, and humans—they know how to prick the pride of people. They are too prideful for their own good. They believe they are superior. It's the cause of the celestials; they made that race feel special, and it became engraved into their DNA. Though their pride falls short when it comes to dragons, and unlike them, dragons have the right to be prideful as one of the most powerful races. And humans hate that. It makes them insecure, and so they'll try to make life hard for Silva rather than work with him. And with his pride as a dark dragon, he will hate that and always be against them. But then again, this is a speculation on incomplete data. Silva might be on to a far bigger and more creative plan. All we can do is sit back and watch it unfold. It is bound to be a great show."
