Restarting Life After Forcibly Marrying the Demon King

They haven't put on a serious face to discuss the terms seriously, nor have they talked about any minutiae... But why did the atmosphere suddenly become relaxed?

"Hahaha...you are indeed very interesting. If I were a few decades younger, I would probably make friends with you. Unfortunately, now...people are old and mediocre, and half of their bodies are buried in the ground."

The old king's tone suddenly became quite relaxed.

Luo Ning shook his head, disapproving of his idea: "Even if you are 99 years younger, you are still [-] years old, so... let's say goodbye, I'm only eighteen, old king."

"eighteen?!"

Maria on the side was not calm at all.

Luo Ning looked back at her.

"Isn't it like, sister?"

"No, no, it is indeed very young in appearance... But, if so, can someone really become a great magician of this strength?"

Maria was stunned, looking at Luo Ning in disbelief.

But she seemed to hear another strange thing from Luo Ning's words.

"Sister??? Do you know how old I am, you actually call me sister!"

"Then, auntie?"

"Call the principal!"

Luo Ning shrugged: "I didn't attend your Saint Zemaria College."

"Then you should respectfully call the principal!"

At this time, Maria did not have the tone of the headmaster admonishing the students at all. On the contrary, the rushing tone seemed a little naive.

"No." Luo Ning refused.

The corners of Maria's mouth twitched slightly, and her high-heeled shoes hurriedly took a few steps back and forth on the ground.

Luo Ning walked down the steps, walked to the other end, and brought over a chair in the corner.

Maria even thought he was going to leave just like that, and was looking at him in fear, but she saw Luo Ning come back after going around.

As soon as he put the chair down, he sat down straight in front of the old king.

The two sat facing each other in the audience room like drinking afternoon tea.

Anyway, he is a person from another world, he can't learn the etiquette of this world, the humble attitude towards kings, emperors and devils.

Luo Ning rested his elbows casually on his knees, as if he was going to have a long discussion with the old king.

"I'll just say it straight." Luo Ning has always been informal.

His suddenly serious expression made the atmosphere here dignified again.

The old king nodded slowly.

He was already surprised that Luo Ning didn't leave directly.

"I'll help you keep Elan King City, but you have to promise me one condition."

"Tell me." The old king's expression became serious.

The two looked at each other, and Luo Ning organized the words in his mind.

"Afterwards, your 'Elan King City' breaks free from the clutches of the empire and turns back into the 'Elan Kingdom', I need you to occupy it here, to isolate the demons from the empire, and not to let the empire set foot on the territory of the demons. "

"The empire can't even enter the territory of the demons now..."

"You don't have to worry about it so much, I just need you to promise me so." Luo Ning paused, and then added:

"If possible, I also hope that you can provide me with information about the empire's treatment of demons. The more detailed the better."

Luo Ning actually thought a lot.

Elan King City... No, it should be called Elan Kingdom.

He is the kingdom closest to the human border from the demon territory.

Almost all human beings must go through the Kingdom of Elan if they want to enter the territory of the demons from their own territory.

And if Luo Ning can bring the Kingdom of Elan over to be a so-called 'ally', then it will be very difficult for the empire to touch the big cake of the demons in the future.

Luo Ning could completely regard the Kingdom of Elan as a natural defense for the demons.

Wouldn't it be a lot of money to let the old king of the Kingdom of Elan act as a human spy for himself.

Aside from other aspects, if Luo Ning can really support the kingdom, then this is definitely the most useful pawn for him.

The saying 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' is true.

The greatest enemy of the Kingdom of Elan in the current situation is undoubtedly the Crotal Empire.

And the biggest enemy of the Crotal Empire is nothing more than the entire Demon Race.

Such an 'alliance' relationship can be built up, helping each other, and the situation is win-win.

It's just that such a relationship cannot be put on the table.

Luo Ning would not tell the old king his true identity and purpose.

This kind of news that they are demons would still be too abrupt for them, and it might not be good for them to know the natural panic about the demons.

What's more, if this kind of thing spreads to the ears of other kingdoms, wouldn't the Kingdom of Elan become a recognized 'traitor'?this is not good.

"Our Kingdom of Elan doesn't have much interest in the territory of the demons. We can't protect ourselves, so we don't care about others... In recent years, the empire has sent people to and from the demons frequently, so we are sent to the demons by the way. This kind of remote and small country is in the bag."

"I can agree to your request without hesitation, but I'm still curious... What is your purpose for doing this?"

"You also know that if you help us...not only you, but also your hometown, may be hated by the empire."

Hearing the old king's earnest words, Luo Ning even felt a little helpless.

Isn't what the old king should do now to try his best to persuade him to help? It is quite strange to persuade him or not, and even start to dissuade him in the opposite direction.

"Of course I know that." Luo Ning nodded.

"Speaking of my purpose..."

"My purpose is actually very simple."

Luo Ning leaned back on the chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

"I may have the same idea as most lives, and the purpose is to change this empire."

Maybe the old king couldn't understand why Luo Ning used the word 'life'.

Because not only the human race and the demon race, but also the elves who were threatened by the land, and the dragon race who were harassed... Most of these races hated the Crotal Empire.

"You want to wipe out the entire empire...?!"

Maria looked at Luo Ning in surprise.

Luo Ning smiled helplessly: "How many people will die then?"

"What I want to do is very simple...kill Clotar III and let the empire replace with a new emperor."

"You actually want to assassinate..."

"Shh-"

Luo Ning raised a finger.

Maria quickly covered her surprised mouth.

The old king on the side sighed again and again.

"Maria, how old are you, why are you still surprised?"

"I, sorry, Your Majesty."

Maria quickly recovered from her panic.

She still looked at Luo Ning with incredible eyes.

Luo Ning looked at her helplessly.

He leaned back in his chair and his voice relaxed again.

"So, when will the troops of the empire come here?"

If it's just a day or two, Luo Ning can wait. If it takes longer, he can only consider other ways.

"When the knights of the empire disappeared yesterday, they sent more knights."

"Our Elan King City has always been the object of suspicion by the empire. After a while, what they sent is no longer a knight order... I am afraid it is an army."

The person who answered Luo Ning's question was the old king.

The old king sighed faintly, looking at the picture on the ceiling with cloudy eyes.

Only the portraits of angels hidden in the graphics can calm his heart a little.

"We destroyed the teleportation magic circle in Elan King City, and they couldn't dispatch a single person in a short time... However, in the other towns closest to Elan King City, there are troops directly under the Empire, and those troops have no red blood. Dragons also have other flying dragon species that are extremely fast... If they reach Elan King City, the earliest batch may arrive at night."

The old king's tone was deep and long, and when he spoke with a weak breath, it seemed that he was about to burp his fart at any time.

Maybe Luo Ning couldn't understand his anxiety and worry. After all, Luo Ning had never been a king before, so naturally he didn't understand the king's current mood.

It's just that he knows how angry an ordinary civilian will feel when he is violated by the great powers.

"Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with me..." Luo Ning scratched his head.

He really didn't need to be afraid of the knights of the empire. When dealing with those knights, he didn't take into account the factor of Elan King City.

When the old king heard this, he just shook his head.

"Actually, this has nothing to do with you. Even if you didn't kill that team of knights yesterday...Ilan King City is still going to rebel, and we will still kill those knights, but our strength does not allow us to do so It’s all about being as crisp as you.”

"With the strength of Elan King City, it is difficult to fight against the empire..."

Luo Ning glanced at Principal Maria in front of him. He couldn't feel the magic power, and he couldn't distinguish the strong human beings. However, judging by those cronies of the king just now, it was very difficult for those few "retired cadres" to resist the huge empire. Obviously impossible.

"What was your original plan?" Luo Ning asked again.

The person who answered Luo Ning this time was Principal Maria. She looked serious and her voice was full of helplessness:

"Actually, we don't have any decent plans... When we learned that the empire was going to send a large number of knights to station here, we already knew our end."

"Send a large number of knights..." Luo Ning murmured, "If it's just to study the method of destroying the enchantment of the demons, there is no need for so many knights, just calling a few magicians is enough?"

"Study the enchantment of the demon race?!"

Maria suddenly became agitated, and her high-pitched voice couldn't help but increase a bit.

"Hehe, they are indeed under the banner of 'studying the enchantment of demons and benefiting mankind'... In fact, they are making preparations before the battle. You see, those elite knights and giant dragons..."

"The next step for the Knights stationed in the Elan King City will be conscription in place. The Elan King City will be emptied, and the people of the whole city will be forced to serve!"

"Actually, the empire has already discovered the movement of the Elan King City. We are caught between the demons and the empire, and we are worried. This day will come sooner or later, and we will have to make a choice sooner or later... In fact, they don't care whether we are loyal or not. Don't care if we want to betray them, after all, in their eyes, we are just the first batch of ghosts to go to the battlefield to die!"

Listening to Maria's excited words, Luo Ning's face gradually became serious.

He already had some sense of the empire's intentions.

"Empire conscripts, do you want to...?"

"Attack the demon's territory."

The old king's hoarse voice came from right in front of Luo Ning.

If it comes to this, it is impossible for Luo Ning to ignore it.

Sooner or later, the human empire will take action on the demon race, which Luo Ning said a long time ago in the Demon King's Palace.

It's just that he didn't expect that the empire would be in a hurry so soon...

This is because I saw a stronger enchantment in the territory of the demons, and I was worried about other variables, so I rushed to take action...?

Or is there another hidden secret?

Until now, Luo Ning hadn't fully figured out who was controlling the puppets in the Black Rain, which was called the disaster of death, in the demon territory.

He came to the human territory for a month, and he knew that the black rain was also happening in the human territory. As for the black hand behind it, it is hard to say whether it is the Holy See of Light or the Clotar Empire.

The worst-case scenario is that the two have joined forces in the dark.
