BXBX NOVEL Chapter 561 Royal Charisma
Eisen looked around at all the people of this town, and with a loud voice, as well as an item that amplified the volume of his voice, the old man continued to speak.
"As you all just saw, we have power, we have support, and we have history. The longest history, actually. But all you people don’t need to be afraid, since we will be using everything that we have to make sure that you can continue your regular lifes from here on. You may live here, you may come to my country. Either way, I pledge upon everything that I have that none of you will be harmed through the chaos currently unfolding in this world." Eisen explained, and the moment he finished speaking, a notification appeared in front of him.

With a satisfied expression, Eisen waved these notification away to the side, before Stahl quickly took over the last bit of the ’speech’.
"Ah, and to those of you that are thinking ’But what about those bombs he placed all around town?’, let me show you something neat!" He exclaimed, his tone completely different to how he conducted himself in his ’Demon Act’ before. Although it seemed like he was actually aiming for exactly that.
He hit his grandfather’s foot with his own to give him a signal, while Stahl himself did some grandiose pose and watched as the whole town was covered in bright, colorful confetti.
"It was a little bit of a trick, no more!" Stahl exclaimed, once more through the item that amplified one’s voice, but it seemed like the next moment, his eyes focused on something else.
But for now, Eisen just did the first step and picked Stahl up while he started flapping his wings, same with Ailren.
The moment they properly left the platform, Eisen made it disappear. For a moment the chains swung around, but just before they were about to hit the town and potentially cause damages, the chains disappeared as well.
And so, they just made their way back to Ailren’s cave, and the moment they landed, the Dragon in question looked at Eisen with a light frown on his face.
"I did not expect such a ’performance’. It seemed like you were actively trying to make people fear you." Ailren pointed out, "Will you be alright after this?" The Gold Dragon asked. Eisen simply turned toward him as he deactivated his draconic demon king transformation.
"Of course I’m going to be alright. I didn’t make them fear me, I made them fear my power. That means that instead of actively keeping them from approaching me or doing anything that could get my attention at all, they’re going to try not to do anything that could anger me, and instead do things that could give me a favorable impression of them. Obviously there’s going to be those that will be trying to take me down, but I care very little about that. Even if they did manage to kill me, I’m immortal, so it really doesn’t matter to me." Eisen explained very quickly, before he looked over toward Stahl, who had once more nearly used up his whole mana to try and keep his size increased for that long using the item Eisen made for him.
"But now, to you. Why did you change your character in the middle of this? You apparently got something out of it, right?" The old man pointed out, before Stahl crossed his arms smugly.
"Yup, I have! Just like Aylrentyrth said, my demon title changed again! Instead of the Contract Demon, I’m the Trickster Demon now! And it’s even a combination title like your’s as well, gramps! It’s a yin and yang demon title!" Stahl exclaimed, before Eisen raised his brows with a smile on his face.
"Oh really? Well, then you’ve got to be aware that it’s going to be quite a challenge to become a true demon. But at the very least you should be able to get a transformation ability so that you don’t always have to rely on Evalia." Eisen pointed out, all the whilst the young woman in question approached. It seemed like she was watching everything happen through CB-1 by having it float around the town the whole time.
"Oh, you want to make me obsolete now?" Evalia asked with a light chuckle as she approached and quickly leaned onto Stahl. Eisen simply smiled and cracked his knuckles as he started thinking about everything else he had to do. Maybe it was actually a good idea to try and complete his Demon title first. Since one of the conditions was to reach specifically level 300, Eisen was pretty sure that getting to heaven and hell was something that should be achievable at his level.
Eisen just had to really find the entrance. Although then, Eisen noticed something that made him feel completely idiotic, "I’m really a moron, aren’t I?" Eisen asked with a deep sigh, while the others looked at him confusedly.
"You’re not a moron!" Caria exclaimed immediately, but Eisen slowly shook his head, "No, in this one, I really can’t help but feel like it. I just repaired Girland. The country core. I think it’s fair to assume that the whole island group was a full country before, one that Girland had control over. I’m sure that she’s able to remember where the gates to heaven and hell are." The old man pointed out with a deep sigh, and Evalia and Stahl both let out a sound of understanding,
"Right..." Evalia mattered, "That does sound like something we should have realized before..." She pointed out, and Eisen quietly grumbled, "Yeah, it is. Ailren, I think we’ll head off to the islands again now. We should get back there as soon as we can, I think." Eisen pointed out, and the ancient gold dragon slowly nodded his head.
"I see. It is quite sad to see that this visit was so short-lived, but I am positive that this will not have been the last time we see each other." Aylrentyrth pointed out, slowly turning himself into his humanoid form, while Eisen swiftly shrunk down.
Ailren reached out his hand for a handshake, but Eisen just laughed a bit and grabbed his hand before pulling him into a light hug, "Try not to cause hundreds of people want to kill you again." The old man advised, and Ailren simply chuckled, "I think you may be the last one that should give me that advice."
The two old men looked at each other for another moment before Eisen properly prepared to leave again. He already got his shop back, and Evalia seemingly also packed her portable atelier up again, so there wasn’t really much that needed to be prepared outside of getting the wooden box for them to travel in while the others also said goodbye to Ailren.
Soon, everyone beside Eisen stepped into the box while the old man increased his size again while activating his demonic transformation. Meanwhile, Ailren and Kirisho were speaking to each other a little more. They lived here together for a very, very long time after all, and were rather close to each other, so it made sense that they would want to speak a little more.
At some point, Kirisho simply embraced Ailren in a hug and returned to Eisen, who swiftly lifted her up to the amulet around his neck and watched at the Mist Spirit disappeared inside of it with a bright smile but tears in the corners of her eyes.
Eisen looked at Ailren with a smile on his face and then nodded his head, before Ailren did the same and slowly stepped back into his cave while turning back into his Dragon form.
The old man properly grabbed the wooden box and attached it to himself tightly, before he slowly flew off into the sky again.
It seemed like there were some people down in town that spotted Eisen as he started flying, but it didn’t matter too much to him. He simply continued at the highest speed that he could possibly manage, of course while keeping everyone inside of the wooden room that Eisen was carrying in mind.
Their first step would be the Starlight building again. Eisen was sure that Komer kept tabs on everything that was going on anyway and he was mostly informed about it. But even then, there was obviously still information that Komer couldn’t get just like that. He wrote the contracts, so he knew what happened after that giant spike of flames appeared above Eisen, despite not being able to see the angels himself.
After they would inform Komer of everything, they would head off back to town, and Eisen could finally learn where those two damned gates where. He could go there, reach heaven and be officially approved by the gods to the extent necessary for his demon title, and then all that was left after that was to do the same with the gods of the underworld after going to hell.
Although, there was something else that Eisen really wanted to try. He wanted to forge some kind of item using the fires of hell.
