"Sigh..." Lu Yi sighed as he looked at Anliaita's absent-minded expression, then turned and disappeared from the room, leaving her alone to have some peace and quiet.

Chapter Seven: Tifania (I'm officially taking leave tomorrow)

"It should be here, right?" Lu Yi thought to himself as he flew through the night sky, looking down at the dense forest below.

"Ugh... Seriously, why is it like this? I fucking hate birdmen the most." Lu Yi looked helplessly at the pair of jet-black wings behind him, then looked up at the two moons in the sky, one large and one small, one red and one white, and roared.

After signing the contract with Henrietta, Lu Yi discovered that his contract was completely different from the contracts between familiars in this world. Instead, it was a demon contract from Black Butler. Lu Yi couldn't understand why a contract between Black Butlers would appear in a world of familiars. Moreover, when Lu Yi appeared, his clothes were exactly the same as those of a Black Butler. He couldn't figure out why this contract would appear when he wasn't a demon. Unable to understand, he stopped thinking about it. This was Lu Yi's usual style. In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks would be worthless.

Although this energy is worthless to Lu Yi, he had already completely sealed his own energy when he was summoned to this world. So this energy is not useless to Lu Yi now, is it?

"Ah... Don't come any closer." Just as Lu Yi was still lost in his thoughts, a sudden shout came from the distance, and Lu Yi quickly flew towards the source of the sound.

"No...don't come any closer..." When Lu Yi arrived, he saw a woman wearing a hat surrounded by several dog-like creatures with magical marks on their heads, indicating that they were summoned magical beasts.

"Grab her." At this moment, the person controlling the monster finally revealed himself and pointed at the woman in front of him.

"Roar..." Upon hearing its master's words, the beast roared and charged towards the woman, its gaping maw revealing white teeth as if it wanted to devour everything.

Just as the magical beasts were about to reach the woman, several faint "whoosh" sounds suddenly came from the air, and then the beasts vanished without a trace, leaving only a few knives and forks on the ground...

"Who is it?" The person controlling these magical beasts was taken aback by the situation and then shouted to the surroundings.

"How rude of you, the legendary Gandalf—the mind of a god." As soon as Lu Yi finished speaking, he appeared in front of the woman and smiled at the person hidden in the darkness.

"Who...who are you?" the person in the darkness asked in shock upon hearing Lu Yi's words.

"Why did you capture her? She's just an elf, and a half-elf at that," Lu Yi said, turning to look at the woman behind him without answering her question.

The elf behind him, upon hearing Lu Yi's words, also looked at him with a shocked expression. Lu Yi smiled slightly at the elf's expression, then turned to the person in front of him and said, "Well... never mind, none of that matters. What matters is that I've found her. Go back and tell your master not to make a move on her, otherwise..." As he spoke, Lu Yi's face turned cold, and he unfurled his demonic wings. Black and evil energy erupted from Lu Yi's body, piercing straight at the person in front of him.

"Evil... Demon Wings..." The person in front of him was intimidated by Lu Yi's aura and managed to utter the words with difficulty.

"Oh??? You know about demons too? No wonder you're known as the one with the mind of a god, Gandalf. That's right, I am a demon who returned from hell. Just like white and black, good and evil, if there are gods in this world, there must be their opposites—demons." Lu Yi bowed elegantly.

"Hmph, it's laughable that a demon would save an elf who believes in a god," the person in front said disdainfully.

"Heh heh... Don't act all high and mighty. In my opinion, you so-called gods are nothing but a bunch of shameful whores. You really think you're something special, huh?" Lu Yi said disdainfully, curling his lip.

"You..." The person in front, after hearing Lu Yi's insulting words, hesitated for a long time before finally managing to utter only the word "you."

"Tch... Get lost. Disappear before I change my mind, or else... die." Lu Yi's voice turned cold at the end, his ruthless gaze piercing the person in front of him.

"Hmph..." Upon hearing Lu Yi's words, the other party snorted coldly, said nothing, and disappeared with a flash of light.

"Alright, the annoying person is gone. Are you alright?" Lu Yi put away his demon wings and walked to the elf's side with a smile.

"Ah... I... I'm alright, thank you." The elf, now fully conscious, looked at Lu Yi with a panicked expression. Having withdrawn his demonic energy, Lu Yi exuded a lightness and ethereal grace completely different from before, captivating this peace-loving and nature-loving elf.

"Hehe... Don't panic, I mean no harm. Come on, get up!" Lu Yi said. As he spoke, he reached out and helped the elf, who was still sitting there, to her feet.

. . . .

Because Lu Yi saved her, the elf invited him to her home. Lu Yi accepted the invitation and followed her to a house built entirely of trees. When Lu Yi and she entered the house, he found that the furnishings were very simple, or to put it bluntly, rudimentary. Besides a bed, there was only a table, a chair, and some basic household items. That was all. The furnishings were very neat, and because there were not many things, the house, which was already quite small, did not feel crowded even with several more people.

"By the way, I still don't know your name. Can you tell me?" After entering the room, Lu Yi sat on the only chair, while the elf sat on the bed. Looking at the elf who was sitting there somewhat at a loss, Lu Yi broke the silence and said with a smile.

“I… my name is Tifania,” Tifania said.

"Tifania? That's a beautiful name. If you don't mind, may I call you Tifa?"

"Yes...yes."

"Tifa, don't be nervous, we're friends now, aren't we?"

"Ah...yes."

. . . .

“Tifa.” After a moment of silence, Lu Yi spoke.

"Yes, is there anything I can do for you, Mr. Sebastian?"

"I don't like dropping the 'Mr.' label. Just call me Sebastian. I just want to ask if you'd like to come with me to see the world. There are lots of people there, you can make a lot of friends, and you won't be living such a lonely life anymore."

"Yes... Sebastian." He lowered his head and murmured, "A... friend...?"

“Yes, friends, many friends.” He stood up, walked to Tifania’s side, and extended his hand, saying, “Come, let’s leave here together.”

"Hmm." Tifania hesitated for a moment when she saw Lu Yi's outstretched hand, but in the end she couldn't resist the temptation and reached out to hold Lu Yi's hand, nodding in agreement.

Seeing that Tifania had agreed, Lu Yi smiled.

Chapter 8: The Undead of Wales

Walking through the dense forest, Lu Yi had already shed his butler's uniform and changed into casual clothes.

"After all this time... you still can't make up your mind?" Lu Yi looked up at the two beautiful moons in the sky, thinking helplessly.

"Um, Sebastian, is something on your mind?" Tiffany, who was walking beside Lu Yi, asked, noticing Lu Yi's melancholy gaze.

"Hehe... It's nothing, I just remembered some things." Lu Yi turned around and said gently to Tiffany.

"So where do we go now?"

"I'm going to Lake Lagodolian. I heard something happened there when I passed by, so let's go check it out first."

"kindness."

After two days of arduous travel, Lu Yi and Tifania finally arrived at Lake Lagudolian. However, when they arrived, there were already several other people there, and the two sides were in a stalemate.

It was nighttime, and the bright moonlight from the two moons shone down on the earth. With the moonlight, Lu Yi could clearly see who the two people facing off were. With Lu Yi's strength, even without light, his vision could not be hindered. Both of them were people Lu Yi recognized, except for one handsome man with short blond hair whom Lu Yi had never seen before. Even so, Lu Yi still guessed the man's identity based on the original plot: Prince of Aribion—Welsh Tudor.

Lu Yi continued walking forward without stopping. When he first arrived here, he felt something calling to him. That strong desire made Lu Yi want to explore it.

"Who is it?" Just as the two sides were still locked in a standoff, they suddenly sensed someone walking towards them and shouted out.

But their response was silence.

"A second warning, don't come any closer, or else..." As they spoke, the two sides, who had been locked in a standoff, turned their attention to Lu Yi and his companion, who were slowly approaching. Seeing that Lu Yi and his companion ignored the warning and continued to advance, everyone unleashed all the magic they had prepared at Lu Yi. In an instant, fireballs, ice blades, wind blades, and other spells rained down on Lu Yi.

Lu Yi sneered at the magic attacks aimed at him, then spread his black wings to protect Tiffany beside him, and continued walking forward step by step without stopping.

With a deafening roar, the magic collided violently with Lu Yi, instantly sending up clouds of dust that completely obscured his figure.

"Did we succeed?" Chuluk asked, looking at the dusty scene ahead.

"No, not yet." Tabasa said, his eyes fixed on the distance.

"What? How is this possible?" Chuluk exclaimed in shock.

“She’s right. It’s been a long time, my princess, Henrietta.” After the dust settled, Lu Yi folded his wings, and everyone finally saw who it was.

"Sebastian... Sebastian!" Henrietta exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Lu Yi.

"I thought it was someone else, but it's Mr. Sebastian! We were really startled!" As soon as Chuluk saw Lu Yi, his expression changed instantly. He ran to Lu Yi's side, hugged Lu Yi's arm, and said with a smile.

"Hehe... It's Qiuluke. You guys go to the side first, I'll handle things here." Although being in the arms of a beauty made Lu Yi feel great, now was not the time to think about such things. Lu Yi smiled at Qiuluke and the others.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you over there,” Chuluk said, stepping aside.

"Please, Mr. Sebastian, you must save Her Highness!" Louise pleaded as she approached Lu Yi.

"Don't worry, Her Highness is my Master after all. I won't let her get hurt," Lu Yi said, looking at Louise.

"Okay." Louise stepped aside reassured after hearing Lu Yi's assurance.

“Your Highness, please come back. Everyone is very worried about you, and I am too. Please come back.” Lu Yi said as he walked to Anliaita’s side.

"Who are you? Why are you stopping us?" Wales shouted at Lu Yi.

"You mere undead, do you even dare to yell at me?" As he spoke, Lu Yi turned his gaze to Wales, and his eyes changed. His originally round pupils now resembled cat eyes, radiating a sinister light. He stared intently into Wales' eyes and said coldly.

"This...this is..." Wales exclaimed in horror upon seeing Lu Yi's eyes, and involuntarily knelt down. The power of the undead is inherently dark, and Lu Yi possesses dark power. However, unlike lower-level dark power, Lu Yi's dark power stands at the very top of the pyramid. Before Lu Yi, all dark power completely submits to him, which is why Wales acted just now.

"You should know that you are an undead, and a controlled one at that. As Princess Henrietta's familiar, in order to prevent her from being harmed and to ensure she can return with me in peace, I will release you!" With that, Lu Yi stretched out his hand towards Wales, and a black energy appeared in his hand. Along with this energy, the same black energy appeared on Wales' body, and this black energy on Wales' body seemed to have a consciousness, moving closer to the energy in Lu Yi's hand before being absorbed. Wales then lay on the ground as if all his strength had left him.

"Wales, what's wrong?" Henrietta saw Wales suddenly collapse to the ground and rushed to his side, asking anxiously. Suddenly remembering that it seemed Lu Yi was behind it, she looked up at Lu Yi and said, "Sebastian, what did you do to Wales?"

"I didn't do anything, I just removed the death aura from his body," Lu Yi said.

"An...Li...Aita." Just as Anli Aita was about to say something, Wales grabbed her hand and said haltingly.

“Wales,” Henrietta said.

“Anliaita, don’t blame him. He did this just to free me from this predicament sooner. I should thank him.”

“Wales,” Henrietta cried.

“Don’t cry, Henrietta. Although I was manipulated, please forgive me for what I did. And please swear for me…” Wales said, touching Henrietta’s face.

"I'll take any oath you want, what oath do you want me to take?"

"Swear to forget me, please swear to forget me, and then go and fall in love with other men. I want to hear you say that. Here on the shores of Lake Lagodolian... before the water spirits..."

"I will not make such a vow..."

"Your name is Sebastian, right? Henrietta, I'm entrusting her to you from now on..." Wales didn't let her finish speaking, but turned to look at Lu Yi and said.

“I would have done it even if you hadn’t told me,” Lu Yi said confidently.

"Then... I... am... relieved..." After saying that, she slowly closed her eyes, clasped her hands down, and a relieved and reassured smile remained on her lips.

“Wales…” Henrietta cried out in anguish as she looked at the dead Wales.

Chapter Nine: Lord of the Demon Realm

After a long while, seemingly exhausted from crying, Henrietta swayed and collapsed to the ground.

"Anliaita." Lu Yi caught the fallen Anliaita in his arms and said, but seeing that Anliaita was just asleep from exhaustion, he breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, "Thank goodness, thank goodness, she's just asleep."

Lu Yi picked up Anlieta and walked to Chuluk, saying, "Churuk, please take care of Her Highness for me."

"It's possible, but what are you going to do?" Qiuluk asked Lu Yi with a puzzled look.

"I need to confirm something." With that, he placed Henrietta in Chuluk's arms, then walked to the side of the deceased Welshman and said, "Rest in peace. This is a peaceful place, and burying you here is not an insult to you."
