Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins-Chapter 443: A honeymoon?
Just as Timothy’s attention was drawn to the three formations, something unexpected happened.
Morganna’s body, pierced by the wooden sword, suddenly began to emit a blazing red light. Waves of heat, like molten lava, surged outward in all directions.
The intense heat caught the attention of both Erelyn and Sylvia.
"What… is that?"
As they stared at Morganna, the red light grew even brighter. From her chest, a crimson crystal slowly emerged, floating into the air.
The source of the heat seemed to be coming from this very crystal.
"This is… a Fire Origin Stone!" Erelyn’s expression froze for a moment before she spoke, her voice filled with surprise.
"Fire Origin Stone?" Timothy and Sylvia exchanged confused glances. Clearly, neither of them knew much about Origin Stones.
At least, nothing like this existed on the continent of Elant.
Erelyn nodded slightly. "Yes, this crystal is a Fire Origin Stone. Origin Stones are incredibly rare and are usually only found in the various realms of the Netherworld. So, it’s not surprising you haven’t heard of them. But in truth, Origin Stones are far more valuable than you can imagine.
There are eight types of Origin Stones: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, lightning, ice, and wind. The reason the Ninefold Underworld has the power to traverse between realms is likely because each of the Eight Ebon Goddesses possesses one of these stones.
Owning an Origin Stone is like having the ability to bypass any barrier and open doors between worlds. Even a Supreme Emperor in the Ascension Phase can’t do that."
"A Fire Origin Stone? I see."
After hearing this, Timothy nodded slightly. He wrapped the Fire Origin Stone in spiritual energy and held it in his hand.
As he stared at the stone, his gaze lingered for a moment. Enjoy exclusive chapters from novelbuddy
Noticing Timothy’s expression, Erelyn couldn’t help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
"I was just wondering… a ring made from all eight Origin Stones would look pretty amazing, don’t you think?" Timothy murmured after a brief pause.
"W-What? ( ° △ °|||)" Erelyn was completely dumbfounded.
In her mind, the value of an Origin Stone was so immense that even the King of the Ninefold Underworld would treat it with the utmost care. If word got out about its existence, countless practitioners would go mad trying to get their hands on it.
But here was Timothy, who had just obtained one of these priceless treasures, and instead of hiding it away, he was already thinking about collecting all eight… to make a ring?
Was he serious?
Even a Holy Emperor wouldn’t dare waste something so precious like that!
"Shh."
Timothy simply raised a finger to his lips, signaling Erelyn to keep quiet.
He didn’t say much more, but his gaze softened as he looked at Sylvia beside him.
It was precisely because the Origin Stones were so incredibly valuable that he wanted to use them to make a ring. The wedding at Sky Sanctuary was going to be a monumental event for both Timothy and Sylvia. Everything about it had to be perfect.
"By the way, Princess Erelyn, since this Fire Origin Stone used to belong to Morganna, do you think it could be used to contact the other seven Ebon Goddesses?"
"Uh, well… probably. The Ebon Goddesses likely use the Origin Stones to communicate across realms, so if you find the right method, you should be able to reach them. But… why are you asking?" Erelyn blinked, clearly puzzled.
"Oh, nothing. I just… want to set up a fight, that’s all." Timothy smiled faintly as he gazed into the distance.
He knew very well that even though they had taken down one of the Eight Ebon Goddesses, Morganna, the Ninefold Underworld wouldn’t just let it go.
So, why not finish the job?
Take out the other seven Ebon Goddesses… and maybe collect the rest of the Origin Stones while he was at it.
"Thank you both, Holy Emperors of the human race, for aiding the Netherworld Citadel."
At the same time, the ghost soldiers and spirits of the Underworld Dynasty, who had narrowly escaped death, finally breathed a sigh of relief. After facing the terror of death, they realized just how comforting it was to still be alive.
Staggering to their feet, the ghosts couldn’t help but bow in gratitude toward Timothy and Sylvia.
"This Fire Origin Stone is truly fascinating. It seems we should study it thoroughly once we return to the human world. So, where should we go next? Back to Sky Sanctuary, or…?" Sylvia coughed lightly, a hint of embarrassment creeping into her voice.
After all, once they returned to Sky Sanctuary, she’d have to start seriously preparing for the wedding. Not only would she need to announce it to everyone there, but she’d also have to personally write invitations and invite sects from all over the world to attend.
Even though she was secretly excited about the wedding, the thought of all the preparations made her feel a little shy.
"We don’t need to return to Sky Sanctuary just yet," Timothy said, his tone mysterious.

Having successfully proposed to Sylvia, he was in a great mood. But rather than rushing back to Sky Sanctuary to plan the wedding, Timothy had a better idea.
"So… where do you want to go?" Sylvia asked, noticing the mischievous glint in Timothy’s eyes.
"Sylvia, have you ever heard of a honeymoon?"
"A honeymoon? But isn’t that something you do after the wedding?"
"The honeymoon I’m talking about is a little different. What I mean is…" Timothy smiled. "My dear, have you ever thought about experiencing a day in the life of an ordinary person? You know, wearing simple clothes, planting vegetables, living in a rundown little cabin, and spending a day without any worries."
"An ordinary life?" Sylvia’s mind quickly conjured up the image Timothy described. For some reason, despite being surrounded by luxurious clothes and gourmet food all the time, the idea of living simply suddenly seemed appealing.
"I think it sounds nice, but… what’s the point of doing that?" She tilted her head in a cute, slightly confused manner.
"Well, I’m worried that you, my goddess, have such a big appetite that after we get married, you might eat me out of house and home. We might end up living like ordinary people, eating nothing but plain vegetables every day. So, I figured we should get some practice in before the wedding," Timothy teased, gently tapping the tip of Sylvia’s delicate nose.
"I may have a big appetite, but I’m not that bad!" Sylvia stomped her foot in mock frustration.
But then, she realized what he was implying.
"Wait a minute! Are you making fun of me?!"
"I’m not lying, though. You really do eat a lot, my dear wife."
"Hmph! So what if I do? This time, I’m going to eat you up completely!"
"Eat me up completely?" Timothy raised an eyebrow, feigning shock. "Wow, my wife, you’re really bold. But now that I’ve reached the Holy Emperor level, I’m not so easy to ’eat up,’ you know."
"Huh?"
It took Sylvia a moment to realize what he was implying.
"Ugh! That’s not what I meant by ’eat up’! (((p(≧□≦)q)))"
Just moments ago, they had been in the middle of a fierce battle, but now, the atmosphere had suddenly turned sweet and playful.
