"Of course, and then I proposed to the kidnapped lady, and she immediately agreed."
"After that, it turned into a love escape with the young lady while I was fighting a great battle with the Kingdom's army... Ah, I was really happy back then."
"Oh, by the way, the young lady I kidnapped is that one over there. What do you think? Isn't her collarbone beautiful?" (She raised her head.)
Chapter 305 The Undead's Request, the Demon King's Demeanor
Following the direction Kiel was pointing, they saw a skeleton lying neatly on the small bed, still wearing a white wedding dress.
Although she was now just a skeleton, Mo Li seemed to be able to see the peace she felt before her death.
Kiel must have loved her very much to have preserved her body so well.
"Then, I have a request. You are the Demon King, right? I would like to ask you to do me a small favor."
"Help? Tell me about it."
"Hmm, could you grant me death? Lord Demon King, you surely can do it!"
Gil looked at Mo Li with expectant eyes. He was seriously injured while protecting the noble lady. In order to continue to protect her from harm, Gil gave up his human identity and became an undead.
Looking into Kiel's affectionate eyes, Mo Li nodded silently.
Seeing that Mo Li agreed, Kiel bowed solemnly, then knelt on the ground and reached out his hand to the skeleton of the noble lady lying on the bed, placing it on her hand bones.
The young lady, who had never stepped out of her mansion, experienced a great escape, fighting against her country and traveling all over the world, and finally breathed her last in this underground city.
"Even during the inconvenient life on the run, she never complained and always had a happy smile on her face."
"I don't know if I've brought happiness to the young lady..."
Kiel murmured, and Mo Li actually saw a slight smile on his skeletal face.
After a deep gaze, Kiel slowly stood up, walked to Mo Li, and explained:
"It's too unrealistic to make the undead commit suicide. I can't end my own life. I've been waiting to slowly decay, but suddenly I felt an amazing power and unconsciously woke up again."
As Kiel spoke these words in the soft candlelight, his bones began to crack, as if he were laughing.
For some reason, Mo Li suddenly felt envious of Gil in front of him. He was finally able to get his wish and be with the person he loved forever. This was a feeling that Mo Li could not understand.
Since that's the case, let me show you the power of a demon king and grant you death.
Mo Li slowly closed his eyes, placed his hand on Gil's head, and began to use his demon king aura to expel the energy of the undead.
Even though Mo Li himself could use Divine Judgment, it would be too painful for the undead. He wanted to send Gil off in the manner of the Demon King.
As the last trace of undead energy was expelled from his body, Gil also came to the end of his life.
"Thank you, Demon Lord!"
With his last ounce of strength, Kiel slowly climbed into bed, embraced his beloved girl, and closed his eyes forever.
"Wife, we can finally be together again!"
Watching the two embrace each other, Mo Li couldn't help but sigh, "What is love in this world?"
The room fell silent. Everyone was engrossed in Gil's love story. Whether the ending was good or bad was unknown, but for Gil, it probably couldn't be better.
"……Let's go back."
Mo Li said calmly that he still had many things to do.
Before leaving, Mo Li made a point of replacing the missing stone wall and sealed it with magic.
That way, no foolish adventurers or monsters will bother them.
On the way back, Youyou looked back from time to time, and she no longer seemed so scared.
"Mr. Mo Li, you said that Mr. Gil is already with that young lady?"
"Who knows? Maybe they've been reincarnated in another place and met again. Fate is something you can't believe in, nor can you believe it doesn't exist..."
Mo Li shared his insights, but they clearly couldn't fulfill Youyou's wishes.
"...She must be very happy. I can say with certainty that for that young lady, life on the run must have been the happiest period of her life."
Darkness made such an intriguing statement, and a slightly forlorn smile appeared on her face.
The atmosphere fell silent again. The return journey was much faster than the way there, and soon the four of them emerged from the cave.
Unfortunately, they ran right into Sato Kazuma and his two companions who were on their way to explore.
As he pointed at Mo Li, Sato Kazuma retreated behind Aqua. The fact that he had died at Mo Li's hands twice had left him with a severe psychological scar.
"The Demon King... the Demon King has appeared again!!!"
"Hey, wait, Kazuma, stop pulling at my clothes! I'm scared too! Let go of me!"
"Yoyo, I didn't expect to see you again so soon. Let's continue our duel from last time!"
Looking at the three people making a fool of themselves in front of her, Mo Li had no mood to mess around with them.
Wiz stepped forward as a peacemaker, bending down and smiling at Kazuma Sato, saying:
"Mr. Kazuma, how did you know we were here?"
"If I had known you were here, I would never have come even if you killed me. It was only because the shop owner told us that a new road had been developed in the Kiel Underground City."
"I see. Well, Mr. Kazuma, you've arrived rather late. There's no treasure left inside."
Wiz tried to persuade Kazuma to give up exploring the area, and she also didn't want anyone to disturb Kiel and his wife's sleep.
He Zhen nodded repeatedly; he didn't want to be killed by Mo Li again.
But at this moment, Aqua seemed somewhat unwilling, grabbing Kazuma's collar and encouraging him:
"Cheer up, Kazuma! We can't give in to the Demon King! Have you forgotten your mission?"
"Don't joke around, you idiot goddess, how could you possibly beat her?"
"So you plan to live here forever? No way! I want to go back to the God Realm. I don't want to stay in this world with a scumbag like you."
"Huh? You think I wanted to be with you? You're clearly an idiot who only attracts a bunch of useless undead goddesses. I should have never chosen you in the first place!"
"Ahhh, you finally said it! You finally said what was on your mind, you idiot Kazuma!"
Before Mo Li could even speak, Kazuma Sato and Aqua had already started blaming each other.
The two even forgot that the Demon King was right next to them, and started criticizing each other's shortcomings, even taking the attack on Megumin who was standing nearby.
Mo Li watched the two arguing and then looked at Darkness, asking curiously:
"It's truly an incredible miracle that your team has survived this long!"
"Don't let their constant chatter fool you, when danger strikes... um..."
Darkness couldn't think of anything to defend herself. Most of the time, when faced with danger, everyone ran for their own lives. Megumin was lying on the ground after releasing her Explosion Magic, and Aqua was being chased by a group of monsters. It seemed like there was really nothing to praise.
But this amazing team defeated all sorts of powerful enemies and the Demon King's army officers.
Mo Li had no interest in listening to their argument, so she left with Darkness, Wiz, and Youyou.
By the time Sato Kazuma realized what was happening, Mo Li and the other three had already disappeared.
Aqua stood with her hands on her hips, chest puffed out, and said with a proud expression:
"See that? Even the Demon King would flee in terror when he sees the noble Goddess of Water, hahaha!"
"No, I think they just don't want to hear us arguing!"
It must be said that Kazuma is sometimes quite self-aware, and he is also relieved that he was able to survive today. Although he knows he can be resurrected, the feeling of death is still very unpleasant.
"So, should we still go in? Wiz said there's nothing left inside!"
"Of course we're going in! How can we believe what the lich says? We've come all this way, not just to stroll around the entrance and then go back!"
Aqua glanced at the cave nonchalantly and immediately decided to venture inside.
Chapter 306 Meeting with the Head of the Dastini Family, Darkness's Eagerness
"Speaking of which, Darkness, I remember Yasaka Kurenai once said that the Dustinis family was being monitored by the Southern Empire, right? How about we go back and take a look?"
Mo Li said this, as he was already eager to meet the head of the Dustinis family.
Darkness was startled by Mo Li's question and immediately lowered her head to think about it, her feelings were particularly complicated.
It would be a lie to say I'm not worried, but if I just bring a demon king back to my home, wouldn't that prove that the Dustinis family and the demon king are colluding?
After a moment's thought, Darkness nodded to herself and said to Mo Li:
"No, no need. I believe His Majesty the King would not do anything dangerous to my father. Let's just forget about it!"
"Oh? Darkness, are you rejecting me?"
"No, this... how could this be, Demon Lord, ah~ ah, that look, this kind of play is also so good!"
Seeing Darkness's wild imagination, Mo Li sighed helplessly, realizing he shouldn't have asked.
Suddenly, Youyou popped out from behind, glanced at Darkness curiously, and asked:
"Oh, is Darkness a young lady from a famous noble family?"
"Yes, my real name is Dustinis Ford Lalatina, and I am the daughter of the Dustinis family."
"Huh! No way, Dustinis... the Dustinis family that's known as the chief strategist of this country? Unbelievable, I never would have guessed that you, Darkness, come from a noble family."
"How rude of me! How do I not resemble a noblewoman?"
Darkness was a little annoyed. She opened her arms, her face flushed, and spun around in front of Youyou.
Youyou's eyes lit up, and she immediately explained:
"Because, Darkness, you always say things like 'um' and 'yeah' all the time, putting on that serious knightly act, but I never expected you to have such a cute real name like Lalatina!"
"No, you're not allowed to call me Lalatina...!"
Darkness, tears welling in her eyes, her face puffed up with anger as she shouted loudly.
She seemed extremely ashamed of the name, especially when it was spoken by someone else; the feeling was completely different.
Seeing this, Wiz quickly waved his hands and changed the subject to his profession.
"Then, Darkness, why did you choose to become a Knight of the Cross?"
Darkness glanced at Mo Li very subtly, but Mo Li still caught it. There was no way he could ignore it; her gaze was just too intense.
Suddenly, Mo Li had a bad feeling; it seemed like Darkness was about to say something terrible.
Just as Mo Li had predicted, Darkness clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest, her eyes gleaming as if she were anticipating something.
"I think that once I become a famous adventurer, perhaps one day an evil mage or a henchman of the Demon King's army will set their sights on me and want to take me back to their base."
"But even after resisting to the end, I was still caught by the Demon King and suffered a terrible fate."
"It will be a very miserable time, with handcuffs and leg irons on, and clothes all disheveled...!"
"Ugh...! Stop...! No...!"
Darkness quickly became engrossed in her imagination, blushing as she began to wriggle her body.
A cold sweat broke out on Wiz's face, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He scurried away from Darkness, as if afraid that others would see that he knew her.
Darkness's fantasy was quickly shattered by a flick on the forehead from Mo Li, which was incredibly embarrassing.
"No matter what, I absolutely have to go to the Dustinis's house!"
"Well then, I'll head back to Demon King's Castle now. Goodbye!"
Darkness was about to slip away when Mo Li grabbed her by the collar and headed towards the Dustinis's house.
Axel, Dastynis Mansion.
The mansion, located on the central avenue of the town of Axel, exudes an aristocratic atmosphere.
Mo Li quickly brought Darkness to the mansion. Just as Yasaka Hong had said, the place was under close surveillance, and there were quite a few Imperial Knights there.
Seeing this, Darkness's expression also turned serious; the situation was not looking good.
"Well, Darkness, do you need me to rescue your father from inside?"
"Please don't do that! Wouldn't that prove that the Dustinis family is colluding with the Demon King?"
"Then how do you suggest we get in?"
"Don't forget, I'm the daughter of the Dustinis family. Why would I need to go through all this trouble to get back to my own home?"
"Really? Then let's go, Lalatina!"
