Tarobo, as the great demon in their Hundred Demon Empire, is as famous as Tamamo no Mae, and he knows many secrets that the newly promoted great demons do not know.

Now that he heard the word 'pledge' from Tamamo Mae's mouth, after thinking about it for a moment, a very long memory suddenly resurfaced in his mind.

However, among the great demons present, apart from him, there were undoubtedly many new young great demons who did not know exactly what this so-called 'pledge' was.

On the contrary, it was Ibaraki Doji, Reitarobo and Tamamo Mae who felt a little surprised...

"It's actually a 'pledge'. Isn't that ceremony already lost long ago?!"

"Boy, you actually know about the 'oath'?"

As a newly promoted Daiyou, Ibaraki Douji's reaction made Tarobo feel a little bit different about him.

To this, Ibaraki Doji replied directly...

"It is recorded in the book collection of the Ghost King Palace."

Hearing this, a look of understanding suddenly flashed in the eyes of all the great demons, and except for Tamamozamae and Tarōbo, the eyes of the other great demons couldn't help but reveal a bit of envy.

Although Shuten Doji has always only liked drinking and having fun, he is the Ghost King after all, and there are certainly many good things in the Ghost King's Palace.

Even the books he threw there like firewood were not easily accessible to ordinary monsters outside, and even some wealthy monsters.

But Ibaraki-douji is different. When he was young, he was adopted by Shuten-douji as his adoptive brother. He follows Shuten-douji all the year round. Therefore, he can come in and out freely in the Oni King Palace, and he can even access the things inside.

Feel free to use it.

After the Oni King Shuten Doji fought with Onikiri, he was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. He never woke up. Ibaraki Doji hated his own incompetence and began to improve his strength at all costs.

In the process, he read through all the various classics in the Ghost King's Palace.

One of the classics that describes various secret rituals mentions the 'oath'. Of course, it is only mentioned, but there is no record of how this 'oath' ceremony should be carried out.

At this moment, sensing the inquiring gazes of the other great demons, Ibaraki Douji took the opportunity to explain.

"'Oath' is the abbreviation of 'Oath and Restriction'. To put it simply, it is a long-lost ancient ritual. You can gain strength by performing this ritual. The special thing about this 'Oath Ceremony' is that it

The greater the restriction formed by the oath made in the ceremony, the greater the power that can be obtained when the conditions are met!"

Perhaps he felt that what Ibaraki Douji said was not clear enough, so Tarobo on the side added some appropriate supplements...

"For example, suppose I make an oath, and the target of the oath is the strongest person in the world. Under this premise, with the 'strongest person' as the goal, the ritual will give me strength, and when I use this

When you match your strength with the 'strongest', you will be able to obtain stronger blessings."

"On the other hand, if it is used against other targets, then this power cannot be used. If it is used, then I will become a defaulter. At that time, the 'restraint' formed by the ritual will begin to trigger the effect and kill me.

This defaulter!"

"So, according to what Tamamo Mae said just now, the previous change in Onikiri's strength is probably the difference between whether he used the power of 'oath' or not. The other party should have used the 'oath' ritual to completely target the 'youkai'

In this group, it may even be that the stronger the monsters he fights against, the stronger the 'oath' blessing he receives. In this way, all the strange changes in Onikiri's past can basically be explained."

"Because his true strength can only be revealed when he faces the specific target of a 'monster'!"

Ibaraki Doji and Tarobo's explanations made all the great demons present fall into deep thought.

Indeed, according to the restrictions of this 'oath' ceremony, many of Onikiri's problems can be explained clearly.

Under this premise, a big demon soon thought of...

"So, we can definitely ask strong men from other races to get rid of Onikiri for us! Due to the existence of the power of 'oath', Onikiri may be an unsolvable problem for us, but for other races

, when Onikiri faces them, his own strength will be greatly limited, and it is not that difficult to kill the opponent!"

"indeed so."

Regarding this answer, Tamamo-mae, who had almost stopped speaking after mentioning the word 'pledge', gave a very simple affirmation, and at the same time, there was a bit of brilliance in his eyes.

As long as the existence of the 'oath' is confirmed, then they will have a way to get rid of this serious problem!

What is the most terrifying enemy in the world?

The unsolvable enemy is the most terrifying, because that kind of enemy will bring you the deepest despair!

Now that there is a solution, all the great monsters who were originally trapped in a desperate situation feel like they have been reborn and suddenly enlightened!

However, after experiencing the simple joy in her heart, Tamamo Mae quickly calmed down again.

Now that I think about it carefully, the situation at that time, if they had not taken action, Guiqie might have died in the hands of the winged gods.

Thinking of this, even Tamamo Mae felt a sense of regret.

But think about it from another perspective, if she hadn't experienced this attack, how could she have successfully associated the 'oath', an ancient ritual that has been lost for many years?

It can be considered as a gain and a loss.

Under this premise, recalling the previous battle carefully, they had a certain understanding of the strength of the six-winged holy wing species of the winged human race.

Although he has not fought a deadly battle with him, he can be roughly sure that he is on the same level as the 'big demon' of their Hundred Demon Empire.

Under this premise, as a winged god who is superior to the six-winged holy wing species, his strength is naturally stronger.

The Winged God had probably not used all his strength when he forced him to kill Onikiri before. From the looks of it, it was obvious that he was doing it with ease.

But even so, Onikiri, who has lost the blessing of the power of the oath, can still dodge all the way. It is enough to show that even without the blessing of the power of the oath, the Onikiri itself is by no means a weakling. It does not mean that they can just find a foreigner.

A strong person can easily solve it.

As his thoughts whirled around, after Tamamo Mae expressed his thoughts to all the great demons present, the originally heated atmosphere cooled down a bit.

When it comes to powerful aliens, they can still think of quite a few.

But when it comes to the strong aliens who have not been offended by them and may be willing to help them, there are only a few...
