Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 54: The Allied Forces Set Out
No brains.

Dorothy, Ristovie, Rose, A.Cion.

Generally speaking, the few people in the mansion, with the exception of the Demon King Moher himself, were clever, but none of them were good at using strategies. Of course, Moher first questioned the hero's fall, and she was willing to give this hero the highest respect.

So let’s just treat it as if Dora has a brain.

Others don't need to care too much. When creating Lisiduowei, Mohe gave her smart talent, but judging from her past performance, she doesn't need it at all!
The vampire queen's numerous atrocities prove she lacks foresight and the ability to reflect. Humans might describe her as "not very cunning" but "hot-tempered." She always thinks she's superior—if possible, she should be sent to the human nobility for serious training, to see how cunning people live.

As for Rose?

The original Frodnik, to put it bluntly, was "just a country bumpkin. What kind of education could you expect from her?"

The only one who could be considered noble was A. Sion—Frodnik was also from a prestigious family, but it was obvious that A. Sion hadn't taught her much beyond swordsmanship. And A. Sion herself was... just a little girl who knew nothing.

So, Mo He didn't think these people could tell what she was thinking. Therefore, even though she knew Li Siduowei was listening, she didn't mind at all. Let her think about it! How could they handle this kind of tricks?
Now that I have created a pure and innocent image for myself, how can I get Xia Di and the others to kill Lisi Duowei?

A smile gradually appeared on Moher's face.

I don’t know if they still remember it.

Rose placed a sculpture of Shadi in the White Church!

Moher could sense the sculpture.

The White Church did not destroy the sculpture.

It was the same thing that was used against Xia Di at that time.

……

The formation of a coalition army was time-consuming. Normally, just the arrival of the various armies, the selection of troops, and the appointment of commanders could take over half a month, while also preparing food and supplies. Despite various supporting measures, from the day of the meeting to the official departure of the coalition army, it still took about a full month.

Now that the United Legion has been officially established—

Xia Di served as the official commander of the legion.

This in itself can also be seen as a change in power in the church. You know, although Xia Di is extremely powerful, according to the church's conventions, the saint does not get involved in the decision-making of war, and the saint does not command the legion.

She has broken this convention, of course at the cost of her arms; it is impossible for her to grow her arms back, even if it is just for show.

Those old guys will become more and more wary of Xia Di, and it is not impossible for her to backstab them at any time. Xia Di is of course aware of this. This war is particularly important to her.

"Mr. Bai Luther, what do you think?"

Bai Luther looked at Shadi, who was now wearing the so-called "holy armor". Although he was already an old man, he used to be energetic, but now he seemed to have lost all his energy. He realized more clearly than anyone else that because of his own problems and his own disrespect, some changes had occurred within the church.

"Lady Saint, why did you let a sinner like me come to supervise the battle?"

Bai Luther didn't understand.

Xia Di simply smiled. "Mr. Bai Luther, a momentary mistake cannot change the fact that you are loyal to the church. I demand that you be punished because I must let the vast majority of believers know that there is a price to pay for doing wrong. However, I also remember your contributions to the church. With your wisdom and help, this crusade will be much smoother."

This is certainly not true...

Bai Luther thought so instinctively. If someone else said such words, he would definitely think it was some kind of trap, some words used to deceive people, but it was Xia Di who said these words.

Saint Shadi.

It is "holy".

As the person closest to God in the world, Bai Luther's faith did not allow him to hold such dirty speculations about Xia Di. He could only express gratitude: "Lady Saint, if there is any use for my old bones, please use them as you please. If this can atone for some of my sins and allow God to forgive my sins a little, then it will be the greatest honor of my life!"

"God will forgive you. I will report your achievements to Him."

My achievements... Bai Luther dared not harbor any illusions. He could only offer his loyalty.

——Of course Shadi is lying!
The purpose of bringing White Luther with him was certainly not to save this old man. In fact, this evil old man was quite unpleasant. If he had not encountered problems in the royal capital, he would have been able to take down the Demon King and Godora together... He was forced to abandon the church in Naluen, so that all the faith accumulated there over the long years collapsed, and even the faith of the city itself was shaken - this debt could never be settled.

However, Bai Luther's status is unquestionable.

The fact that he was able to hold the position of bishop in the cathedral of the Human Central Empire was sufficient to demonstrate his "status" within the church and the human empire. In fact, many stories about Bai Luther's youth were circulated in this world. They all seemed like miracles—after all, this man was very weak.

Regardless of whether those events were fabricated by White Luther himself or caused by various other reasons, as a Saint, Shadi must demonstrate "Saintly Mercy." This applies both to demanding punishment and to bringing White Luther out to redeem himself for meritorious service. This is also to ensure a smooth flow of power into her hands, to reassure those old guard, to make them feel they dare not truly turn against them and still rely on them for their support. Therefore, she had to bring White Luther out of his confinement to give them a way out.

Of course, some people may feel that their intentions are not pure, but this is a good choice for everyone, so no one will object.

However, from her own perspective, there was only one purpose for bringing Bai Luther with her - to take the blame.

As everyone knows, this war was not started simply for the Demon King and the old heroes.

Why is the Human Central Empire called the Central Empire?

Of course, this is because there are some scattered small countries around, various races, and human countries that do not intend to submit to the Central Empire. In such a war, what needs to be done is to annex these various small countries. She has discussed the annexation plan with the wise king in advance.

The excuses for the war were naturally "suspected clues of the appearance of the Demon King", "suspected traces of the presence of heroes", "collusion with the Bloody Queen"... As for whether they existed or not, in the face of such a sacred army, it had lost its meaning.

After all, these small countries say they don’t have it, so do you dare to let me go in and check?
As long as I send a large army into the country, it is not up to these small countries to decide whether it comes or not. As for whether these small countries can unite to form a large army to fight against the Central Empire of Humanity and the White Church, as well as the legions composed of the Magicians' Guild, the Alchemists' Association, and the Curse Masters' Alliance?
Stop being funny.

This lineup can be used to fight conventional wars with elves and dwarves.

Those are two other major races.

If you don't let them enter, it means you have something to hide and are helping the Demon King and the former hero to hide.

Then the method of entry needs to be changed.

So - even though Xia Di knew that the Demon King and Godora were most likely in a remote location in the Human Central Empire, her army still marched directly towards the border.

Of course, she wasn't saying she had no goals at all. She had to at least pretend to achieve some results. The Demon King had communicated with her through the sculpture. She was testing her, so she should test her as well.

In the direction she was heading now, to the west of the Human Central Empire, there was a small "Lizardman" kingdom.

Because a large area of ​​this kingdom is desert, it is actually not worth ruling. Simply put, the wise king looks down on this land.

However, there is a very key person in this place.

In the past, there were people who betrayed the demons and chose to stand on the side of humans, like Lisiduowei. Correspondingly, there were also people who were loyal to the Demon King, chose to hide themselves, and planned to overthrow the rule of humans one day.

There is such an existence in the Lizardman Kingdom - this is something the church discovered about seven or eight years ago, but the church has never taken any action, just to be able to use it at this time.

The first battle will be fought here.

We need to prove to the world that we're not messing around. If it were all about territory, why would we attack the barren Lizardman Kingdom? We mobilized our vast army, sparing no expense—all for the sake of the world! To prevent the demons from returning! With this example, all subsequent actions will be justified.

So, will the Demon King take action? She herself probably doesn't know that she still has loyal subordinates in the Lizardman Kingdom... and the demons who stand firm for her, hide themselves for her, and keep their identities... If he knew, what would the Demon King do?

The last time they met, Xia Di realized that the Demon King was completely different. She had to rebuild her understanding of him.

Communication through the sculpture is very simple. It is enough for everyone to have a tacit understanding on some things and the final result is consistent. As for how the process progresses and how much benefit everyone can get from such twists and turns, doesn't it depend on each person's ability?

"Let me see which old acquaintance is hiding there."

The army marched towards the Lizardman Kingdom.
