I have the same theory too! I've always wondered what really happened to Rood who clearly died and also wondered why did [The King] choose Rood as his host. Is it because the king have no other choice for a host? or is it because [The King] is connected to Rood's and his brother's real parent? or did he choose Rood as his host because he noticed that Rood's brother can get him back to the human world? But then that questions the reason why [The King] needs or want to be in the human world, right? Even if it seems that the story is ending a lot of recent events makes us Question Rood's Origin more than ever! I just hope that author-sama will enlighten us extremely well.
"was Rood Chrishi a king to begin with? or could it be that the king took on rood chrishi's form. Which do you think is correct?" Meredith ch 175 I think that statement speaks volumes!
I personally think it's the latter. But yes I agree with you that Meredith's statement should be noted!
hmm~ that should be more legit, but why does he have rood's memories then if he just took of rood's form?
So I have an very outlandish theory here that I never really thought about before, but... Rood is dead right? He died when he was thrown into hell and was only brought back by the demon king...? (And his brother's influence) so...
Warning; a lot of this makes no sense, and is just random.
Is rood using the demon king's magic for a life force? Or is the king using rood's corpse as a sort of host... Will rood die when the king regains his full power, or will rood turn into the king...
I was actually thinking that rood was nothing more then a walking corpse only being kept alive by the king so... As I asked above; what do you think is going to happen to rood when the king regains his powers.
Personally I think rood will become the king, as he has the Kings memories as such it's possible their souls have merged. And his eyes have been changing lately when he regains some of said memories.
