Chapter 5: INFORMATION IS POWER
"What happened, master 'Demon King' DAMON DARKBORNE..."
Suddenly, Jack heard a sweet, melodic voice, which, once anyone heard, they became captivated. He turned around and saw a girl entering his room.
As the door opened, an extremely beautiful girl, probably in her mid-twenties, entered the room.
In the dimly lit room, there stood a girl with flowing black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of shadows. Her piercing green eyes, reminiscent of emeralds, gleamed with curiosity and a hint of mystery. With delicate features, her face was framed by high cheekbones, a small nose, and rosy red lips. Her skin was milky white, so much so that it was hard to believe anyone could have a skin color like this. She was wearing a maid outfit, which could hardly cover her sinful figure that truly bewitched those who encountered her. With curves that could tempt even the most steadfast of souls.
"Master, can I ask you what happened? Do you need something?"
Jack, mesmerized by her looks, stood there like a robot, who had lost his ability to speak. His eyes focused on the heavenly blossom, which were not too big and not too small, and could enchant anyone who looked for too long.
"Master... Do you need something?"
"Haaa!!... Oh, nothing. I am fine. I was just feeling light-headed."
Jack came out of his surprised state and tried to make an excuse. Well, it was hard for him to talk properly due to the fact that our MC is truly a virgin and has never talked with a girl properly in his life, and because of that, he was a little embarrassed.

Upon seeing Evelyn's status, Jack was truly surprised. There were two things different in Evelyn's status compared to Jack: mana and affinity.
Jack couldn't help but compare his status with Evelyn's and became impressed by her. Jack stared at Evelyn with a gaze full of curiosity, admiration, and probably a little bit of lust, but mostly admiration.
Seeing him watching her with those eyes made Evelyn feel a little different, but like a professional maid, she stood there, holding her ground, and didn't show any feelings on her face.
"Master, is there something on my forehead?"
"Haa..."
Jack gathered his curiosity and started to think about how to handle this situation. As he was new in this world, he didn't know anything about it, and he was clueless.
'Well, it seems I have to make an excuse... What should I tell her? Haaaa... Use your brain and remember how other MCs from other novels would handle this situation.'
"Evelyn Harper, tell me about myself from your perspective."
"Aaaaa... Master, can I ask you why you are asking me this question?"
"Well, I want to know what my subjects think about me. Don't hesitate; be honest and speak your mind out."
Yes, after reading his title as 'Demon King', he has accepted his new identity very fast. That also explains why he was sleeping in such a lavish room like this. So as a king, he is using his authority to ask a simple question.
'Why is the master asking me such a question? Does he want to test me or something? No, that can't be; he has just become a Demon King at the very young age of 21. I don't think at such a small age he would have such high intelligence to test me.'
Demons are creatures of darkness, and they have an exponential talent for magic, which is why they are very strong compared to many races. Demons also have a very long lifespan; for demons, a teenager is a person who is over 200 years old. While Damon was just 21 years old, in the eyes of demons, he is just an infant.
"Master is a very strong man with a kind nature an..."
"Don't try to lie in front of me, Evelyn, when you're talking about myself."
Somehow, Jack got the feeling that Evelyn was lying to him; he didn't know why, but seeing her trying to look away and putting her head down, he was sure that this girl was not being honest in front of him.
"I am telling the truth, master."
"You don't take me for a fool, right, Evelyn?"
Jack showed a small smile on his face, which mixed with his otherworldly face, enchanted Evelyn for a bit. But she snapped out of her reverie and gave her signature emotionless face, like a professional.
"Master, I am telling you the truth... It's just that sometimes your anger makes me feel a little scared, that's why I don't want to make you angry."
Evelyn said with a soft voice, barely audible, as if trying to hide her embarrassed look.
But Jack knew that she was really scared of him.
"Hmmm, is that so? You don't like my anger, okay. Tell me more about my good things and bad ones also."
'Well, with this, I can strike a conversation with her and know more about myself. I can tell that as a DEMON KING, I hold very high power in society, so I have to get stronger very fast because there would be many people who would try to take my place.'
With a serious look, Jack started to think about it, and seeing him act like this, Evelyn was stunned.
'What happened to the young master? Is he not feeling well today, or has the magic research taken a toll on his mind?'
Demon's are creatures of dark, and they have an exponential talent for magic. That's why they are very strong compared to many races. And demons have a very long lifespan; for demons, a teenager is a person who is over 200 years old. While Damon was just 21 years old, in the eyes of demons, he is just an infant.
"Evelyn, tell me everything about this world and the people who live in this world; tell me everything."
'Does the young master have lost his memories due to the magic research? That's a very big problem; I have to discuss it with madam.'
"I understand, master; it might be because of your research. Let me tell you everything you have to know."
'What research is she talking about? Well, it doesn't matter if I can get information about the world; then it's okay.'
After all, a great person once said...
