"Anna?" The crowd was confused, unsure why the middle-aged man shouted that na.
Experience tales at empire
But one of the demons, a woman with blonde hair and red eyes, flew toward him.
Many in the crowd braced themselves, expecting her to attack, but instead, they were stunned when she embraced him.
"Daddy!" she exclaid, her voice filled with joy.
The scene shifted from fear to surprise as onlookers struggled to process what they were witnessing.
A demon having a human father? How was that even possible?
Does it an she was a divergent ?
But looking at her blood-red wings, it was obvious she was a demon.
"Anna , I miss you. Are you okay ? "
"Anna, I miss you. Are you okay?" he asked, tears welling up in his eyes as he finally saw his only daughter after all this ti.
There had been monts when he almost gave up, and now, here she was.
Although she had changed a lot, he could still see the familiar spark in her eyes—the daughter he had doted on was still there.
"Anna... I—"
"Where is Reign?" she quickly asked, cutting his heartfelt mont short.
George was taken aback. He had expected this, but it still hurt him a bit.
"Anna, I—" he began, struggling to find the right words. "I don't know where he is right now. The last ti I saw him was back in Green Valley. He was the one who made it possible for to get here."
Her expression turned to disappointnt , but she quickly masked it with a smile. It seems that she had mature a lot.
"It's alright, I'll find him soon," she smiled back.
Then, the other demons flew toward her. Each looked humanoid, with minor differences—one had scale-like skin, and another sported elongated horns.
"Is that your father, Anna?" asked another stunning woman—Elizabeth.
She had now reached Demon King level, an impressive achievent, but Anna's accomplishnt was even more remarkable; she, too, had reached the sa level with less ti and effort.
This caught the attention of the Abyssal Alliance, and Anna was quickly given a rank, and her own territory.
Her achievents set her apart, and the many Demon Gods recognized her potential.
They even allowed her to co to this place at her request, demonstrating just how much the alliance cherished her talent.
If she continued at her current pace, it would only be a matter of ti before she beca one of the few Demon Gods on this planet—the pinnacle of existence in the world.
"Yes, he's my father," Anna replied, her voice steady. There was no hint of embarrassnt in her eyes.
While others might look down on humans, she didn't see George that way.
To her, he was so much more than just a human; he was her father.
Plus, there was indeed sothing wrong with George's head for taking care of her, especially considering the fact that she had killed all her stepmothers in front of him.
In that sense, he wasn't exactly sane either.
"Hello, Mr. George. My na is Elizabeth," the Demon King said, raising her hand for a handshake.
Her voice was casual, catching George off guard. He had heard much about her kindness towards humans, which was rare among her kind.
After a brief hesitation, he extended his hand and shook hers. Her grip was soft, and she slled really nice.
"Nice to et you, Queen Elizabeth.".
"I've heard a lot about you from Anna," she continued. "You've raised an exceptional daughter."
A hint of pride swelled within him.
"And then there's Reign. Anna ntioned that he is more exceptional than she is, which I find hard to believe given her achievents," Elizabeth said with a hint of curiosity in her tone.
"Achievent?" George raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Your daughter has reached Demon King Level in such a short ti, so I'm eager to see what kind of demon could impress her like that."
"What?" George was taken aback by her words. That feat was nothing short of a miracle.
He could understand Reign's rapid growth; after all, his abilities had always been impressive.
But Anna had taken decades to even reach High Rank.
'How did she manage to do that?'
If George discovered that it was the power of love which fueled his daughter's rapid growth, he would probably laugh his ass off.
'And then there's Reign...' his thoughts trailed off
'Does this an they want to recruit him?'
He glanced at Anna, who nodded, giving him the signal to speak.
George couldn't help but wonder if her daughter was also getting involved in all of this. Maybe she wanted him to be part of the Alliance too.
If that were the case, as his father-in-law, George knew he needed to boost his future son's value.
"Yeah, that guy is a real monster. He went from Low-Ranking Demon to Demon Lord in just a few months. With his growth rate, I won't be shocked if he's already at the Demon King level too," George chuckled, trying to lighten up the mood.
It was ant to be a joke, but the others demon's faces did not like his tone.
Reaching King level required imnse effort, luck, and ti, yet he brushed off the difficulty by the way he phrase it.
If he weren't Anna's father, they would have torn him apart already.
Elizabeth, on the other hand, didn't share that sentint. She felt genuinely impressed if that were true.
With Lilith's threat and the possibility of Hell invading this planet, the alliance focused on recruiting more powerful demons.
In fact, they began offering deals to problematic demons in exchange for their cooperation.
So of the most dangerous ones were even released from prison.
So, even if Reign had committed many cris, he could still be pardoned if he promised to work for them.
As for his previous sins?
Well, no human governnt could hold him accountable if the alliance said no.
"I wonder if I can talk to him. The alliance wants to offer him a chance to join us since we need powerful beings," she asked, breaking the awkward silence.
