For those who didn’t see the previous one, this is the same Demon King that got stabbed by the “BoredSword”:

Ah… I wanted to try and leave a comment on every comic but… Ugh, I’m bored already (also, the “You’re reviving an olden topic!” message makes me feel bad…)
i just noticed that the demon king seems to believe that kargob has 6 eyes

Actually, that’s a very interesting observation. I don’t see any reason for that, as he is aware of kargob’s true for and his home is in the worselands. I don’t think any major civilizations live there. Is that where the barbarians are?
Can we get @InolienKiki to explain this please? I don’t have my Official Theory Sword yet.

maybe he attacked a barbarian castle (or a six eye believing castle) and took it over and didn’t care to change it since, unlike most folks, the demon king doesn’t care about the number of eyes that kargob has. and like you said, he is aware of kargob’s true form.
Wow, am I being called on to explain random Swords lore now?? :0
Can’t say too much about how the Demon King ended up here. We know he fled from the Swornament arena after Bread Knight and some other people stabbed him, but we’re not sure why he went to the Worselands or where this place is. The Swords website tells us that the barbarians live in the Badlands, between the Worselands and Hiltshire. In fact, I can’t actually confirm that anyone has lived in the Worselands since they (presumably) got torched in CCXIX.
In which case, it’s possible that the Worselands were settled by some early civilization, who we know from CCII did believe in a Kargob with six eyes. Anyway, I don’t think the Demon King built this castle; it doesn’t really seem in character for him. He’d be more likely to smash it.
However, there’s one more thing that’s worth mentioning. That throne is really quite big, and no explanation comes to mind for its size…
Welp, that’s all I’ve got

OH! maybe some form of giants lived in it. or the lesser demons might have built the place for their king.

Okay, so everyone knows the wall of text that is the demon king’s profile, right? Within that wall of text I found this:
“Aware of another Demon Sword claiming possession of the fifth and final Godsword, the Demon King travelled to the Worselands and stole a dungeon lair that previously belonged to the Dungeon Master Master. There he planned to bide his time and build up an army to attack his brother, The Demon Sword of Relentless Omens.”
So I guess that’s resolved. shrug
P.S. The Demon King’s profile is outdated as of Three Eyes Shut
P.P.S. Random useless fact: this means the DMM is a six-eye believer
Wait, actually? Thank you so much for this clarification! I totally should have checked on this.
