Self-destruction?

Fuck. Liam frowned. He did not have a good feeling about this. What the hell was this blatant flattery? Was the king really going to fall for something obvious like this?

The demon Ghet also quickly joined in. 

"Yes, your highness. How could this be possible? The stone tablet never acknowledged a genius like you. How could it possibly acknowledge someone like him?"

The last demon also joined in. "Your highness, we only won all the rift battles thanks to the vast knowledge and priceless advice that you have given us." 

"Now the Thol city Lord wants to claim this as his doing? I will not stand by and simply watch this lowly demon claiming to be your equal, my highness."

Liam was speechless. He thought that he was shameless, but these guys were even more so. They were completely trying to push him into something else.

While the three continued to fawn and flatter the demon King, Liam started quickly ransacking his brain.
