My dear witch, please turn evil according to the script!

Chapter 381 The Blood Demon Lord's Snowy Night Ascent to Liangshan (Not Really)
"Ah...it's finally over."

"I never thought I'd hear such an authentic scolding from the Demon King three hundred years later."

"Looks like he really did remember all the important things... He's even become quite familiar with the way people swear."

Danso hung up the call with a hint of melancholy.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Demon King did not assign too many tasks.

I just asked him to pass on a message.

The rest of the time was spent criticizing himself.

Just like three hundred years ago when I killed my father and seized power...

Danso fell silent again and began to ponder another question.

Have those bastards from the Amnesty Council really left the vicinity? Or have they gone into hiding?

Shouldn't we unite with humanity to wipe out those bastards?

Anyway, he needed to contact the human side to convey Roland's message.

Thinking back, my last contact with humans was quite friendly, and I didn't show any hostility.

Okay, let's do it this way. Let's go prepare some gifts first.

It seems that humans have a custom of visiting each other with gifts.

It's best to prepare yourself.

It's night time soon.

Nighttime is Blood Demon's domain, so no one noticed Danso's departure, and no one recognized the blood clone he left in the city.

He quietly left the royal city and stood before the impregnable barrier, which did not prohibit people from entering or leaving.

It seems that some functions have been sacrificed in exchange for a type of weapon that provides strong defense and countermeasures against all attacks.

However, since there are no restrictions on entry and exit, it has made things much more convenient for him.

Like a ghost, Danso entered the front lines unnoticed, then entered the city of Heria, and then skillfully raised his hands.

Even though no one had appeared yet, Danso never doubted the perception abilities of those powerful humans.

Soon, he was surrounded by powerful human warriors.

Caifas emerged from the shadows of the streets, while Cardinal Clark appeared on a rooftop near the street at some unknown time.

And the great sage Erebus, who was holding his back with some unknown weapon, and Flam, who was floating in mid-air holding a staff, and Remilia beside her... Remilia!?

Damn! Why is this guy here?!
Danso, who remained calm when he saw the other powerful figures, turned ashen-faced as if he had eaten ten tons of excrement when he saw his younger sister.

Didn't this guy swear he'd never leave Isfar?!
But it's not over yet.

Behind Kefas stood a giant with dragon horns, over three meters tall, who made no attempt to conceal his formidable magical power. Even standing in front of him, one could feel a sense of oppression that made it hard to breathe.

But why is there a cute pink kitten sitting on the other person's shoulder?
But before he could think any further, Erebus's voice rang out from behind him: "State your purpose, and don't try to lie."

"Since you haven't made any retaliatory moves, we're willing to give you this chance."

As the Great Sage finished speaking, the powerful figures present cooperated by preparing to unleash their attack power.

Kefas placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, his thumb supporting the guard, and the blade was slightly drawn out, emitting a faint golden light mixed with sharp sword energy.

Cardinal Clark's muscles bulged, and a halo of holy light suddenly rose behind his head, as if he would rush up and punch Danso at any moment.

Flam, on the other hand, remained quite calm and was the only one who did not choose to charge up her power.

Because she had to restrain the shut-in Blood Demon next to her, who was itching to kill his own brother right away.

Just as calm as Flam was Sinos. Upon hearing of Roland's disappearance, he immediately took his daughter and caught up with the legion that had already set off. He also used powerful dragon magic to forcefully construct a spatial teleportation array, and then flew to the destination, Heria City, where he created another powerful dragon teleportation array.

This is why the legion moves so quickly.

He wasn't in a hurry to make a move because he didn't sense the slightest hostility.

Furthermore, even if there is hostility, such an opponent will not pose any threat to him.

Danso sighed, then spoke for the first time: "You're all a bit too tense."

“I came with good intentions; look, I’m even carrying a gift.”

"Although it's just some food, there really aren't any reliable gifts to be found in the capital right now."

"Anyway, I'm just here to relay Lord Roland's whereabouts on behalf of the Demon King. Could you please move your weapons aside?"

At this point, Flam also asked, "Why should I believe what you say?"

"Where's the evidence?"

"In the right pocket of my jacket, there is a communication device. I recorded my conversation with the Demon Lord."

"And His Majesty has given me your communication magic frequency. Would you like me to cast it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Danso dialed Flam's communication frequency and generated a projection.

Having done this, the other powerful figures present all put away their weapons, except for Erebus, who still hadn't put away the suspicious weapon that was pressed against Danso's back.

"How about we talk somewhere else? Besides relaying the message, I have something else I'd like to discuss with you."

...Ten minutes later, in a two-story bar in the city of Herria that had been temporarily converted into a supply storage point.

"That's how it happened. After Lord Roland was caught in that spatial turbulence, he escaped and unexpectedly ended up in Enwa."

"They are currently hiding in the territory of the Cangya family, and have already made contact with Dracula. He will arrange the evacuation route, so you don't need to worry."

“You may not be aware of Enva’s special circumstances; communication magic really cannot be used in that chaotic magical environment.”

“Even we demons can only communicate through these little things.”

"While this is a convenient invention for most people, it is extremely inconvenient for beings of slightly higher rank to be unable to use communication magic."

"We've gotten off topic. Now that everything's been explained, let's talk about cooperation."

"For example, arresting those guys from the Amnesty Council?"

Danso laughed as he said this: "I know quite a bit about those rats."

"I heard that you also severely injured that madman, Bishop Barrow of the Evil Eyes, and killed all those so-called recipients he brought with him."

"With an additional bishop... they won't let this loss go unpunished."

"Otherwise, even if you go back, you won't escape the punishment from the two higher-ups in charge."

"Based on my understanding of them, they will definitely try to achieve something to salvage the situation."

"And this should have been their initial plan."

"Don't tell me you don't know that those people have been spreading the so-called blessings of God along the border for a long time."

"Those evil gods' corruption was simply cleaned up by Lord Roland."

"Now that he's not here, what do you think a cultist madman eager to achieve something would choose to do?"

After saying that, Danso chuckled: "Indeed, indeed, we two are still enemies, and humans and demons are still enemies for generations."

"But we also cooperated hundreds of years ago, didn't we?"

"The covenant remains valid, at least to me."

"Here's a little tidbit of information. The main force of the Heart-Beating Demon Royal Court and its army has withdrawn from the Kingdom of Platia and gone to the neighboring Kingdom of Hetland to hold their ground."

"Their plan is about to succeed. At that time, war may really begin."

"However, I think that since His Majesty the Demon King and Lord Roland are both in Enva, the situation of the war may change."

"In that case, we should both focus our attention on the real threats."

"After all, whether for us, for humanity, or for the whole world, they were a group of pure madmen who only wanted to destroy the world."

After Danso finished speaking, the bar fell into a brief silence.

Flam and Remilia had already left. Firstly, they had obtained the most important information and needed to hurry back to tell it to Kalia, whose emotions were still unstable. Iluvia alone couldn't comfort that girl for long.

Secondly, to prevent a shut-in from going berserk, she had no choice but to bring him back early.

Furthermore, she wasn't a member of the decision-making team; she would have left long ago if it weren't for hearing news from Roland.

Sinos was with her. After hearing that Roland was alright, he and Nash breathed a sigh of relief and went back to sleep.

Only the three powerful figures from the Empire, the Papacy, and the Society remained on the scene.

Kefas was the first to speak: "I have no problem with it. If it's about those cult lunatics."

“The same goes for the Papacy. As long as the demons are willing to abide by the former alliance, the Papacy can temporarily set aside its hostility.” Cardinal Clark stroked his beard and smiled.

Erebus closed his eyes in thought: "How can we be sure you're not lying?"

“I think I have shown enough sincerity, just like when I spoke privately with Lord Roland before.” Danso shrugged, saying nothing more.

If they're unwilling to cooperate, then forget it.

Wang Tingjun's current strength is sufficient to complete the mission.

Even though Dracula is gone, there are still other great demons in the royal army.

Not to mention the considerable number of regular troops.

Erebus didn't say anything more, only nodded: "Learn to cooperate."

"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you all. Let's exchange contact information then."

"This is my communication frequency."

Danso etched a message on the bar counter, then got up and left: "I have to go back. Even if the Blood Clone doesn't reveal too many flaws, no one can say for sure."

"I still have quite a few guys watching me."

"Let's go. Remember to exchange information promptly."

"By the way, have your paladins retreat. There's a trap set for them, and I'll intervene to avoid suspicion."

"It wouldn't be good if we accidentally hurt friendly forces, so remember to tell them to behave themselves."

"I will also send people to search the area around the royal city and the city of Yalan in the coming days."

"Even if it's a patrol made up of orcs and half-orcs, they are still my soldiers. Let bygones be bygones, but please be careful from now on."
