"Big sister, I'm getting angry if you say that! How dare you compare me to her!"
The crowd began to comment on Eris, showing absolutely no respect whatsoever.
Seeing this, Mo Li slowly walked forward, looking at Eris who was tied to the ground, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
He wants to completely ruin Eris's reputation; it seems it's time to catalyze this demonic seed.
Chapter 315 Replenishing Eris's Mana, the Demon King's Army Sets Off
Mo Li took Eris back to the Demon King's Castle and imprisoned her in a room.
For several days in a row, Mo Li stayed in his room day and night to catalyze the demonic seed within Eris.
Under the suppression of the Demon King's aura, Eris's divine aura gradually diminished. At this moment, she no longer resembled a goddess but rather a witch.
Demonic energy occasionally swirled around Eris, and a flash of red light would occasionally flicker in her eyes.
Looking at Eris lying on the ground, Mo Li slowly stood up and nodded in satisfaction.
Believing that it wouldn't be long before she completely became his, Mo Li pushed open the door and walked out.
Eris was left lying on the ground alone, tears streaming down her face. In this dark and gloomy room, her divine power was restricted, and she could not even resist.
Darkness greeted Mo Li. She stood at the door, looking hesitant, her hands clasped together, her body fidgeting, clearly preoccupied.
"Why are you here today? Where is Erya?"
"Um... Lord Mo Li... actually..."
"Just say what you have to say. Don't be so hesitant. You're the Demon King's man, after all!"
It's worth mentioning that, in order to avoid a repeat of the previous situation with Banir, Mo Li reincarnated Darkness as a demon.
After hearing Mo Li's words, Darkness finally mustered up her courage, grabbed Mo Li's arm, and said:
"Father wrote that in a few days, Princess Alice will be acting as a representative to investigate the case of the Sun Knights, accompanied by the 867 members of the Eagle Knights!"
"Let them investigate. The traces I left are quite obvious, aren't they? Besides, didn't I give him a fake death pill?"
"That's not the problem. The point is, the princess wants to see you!"
Mo Li's eyes widened. Was this princess crazy, or was there something wrong with her head? How could she possibly want to see him, the Demon King? Or was there some other conspiracy at play?
Upon learning this news, Mo Li's mind began to race as he pondered Alice's intentions.
Having heard that the current king is old, does the princess want to join forces with him and become the current king?
Or perhaps she wanted to use the Demon King to help her eliminate her brother, or maybe...
"I understand. If the princess wants to cooperate with me, it's not impossible. Just tell her to show some sincerity!"
"What are you talking about? The princess wants to see the hero who rescued me from the demon king!"
"Huh? Wait, I'm a little confused. Who rescued you?"
"When my father reported to the king, he described you as a hero who rescued me from the demon king. The princess came this time because she wanted to see you."
After hearing Darkness's explanation, Mo Li not only covered his forehead, but also looked completely speechless.
Duke Dustinis, don't do such useless things. Wouldn't it be better to be a dutiful spy?
Mo Li now understood Darkness's feelings. Asking him, the Demon King, to meet a princess of a country was a pipe dream, especially since she was a descendant of a hero.
That's right. Like Yasaka Kurenai, Alice possesses the bloodline of a hero and is basically a transmigrator with cheat codes.
As early as the initial stage of the Southern Empire's construction, the royal family and powerful nobles continuously introduced the bloodlines of powerful warriors, which led to a leap in the potential abilities of their descendants.
Furthermore, they received the highest level of education in various fields, and they continuously leveled up by consuming high-level ingredients rich in experience points without hesitation, and they also fought with powerful weapons inherited from heroes.
The current members of the royal family are almost all skilled warriors. They have achieved considerable success in their battles against the former Demon King's army, and even repelled an attack by the Demon King's army's officers.
After much deliberation, Mo Li decided that it would be better to go, as Duke Dustinis could not be exposed yet.
"I understand. Reply to Duke Dustinis and tell him I will be there on time!"
"Yes, Lord Mo Li, that's wonderful. I'm sure Father will be very happy."
"Oh, and by the way, have him spread a message for me: on the day of the Eris Festival, the goddess Eris will be present to bestow blessings upon her followers!"
"I understand! Um, Lord Mo Li, the goddess Eris, she..."
Darkness was filled with unease after learning that Chris was Eris, believing that she was the one who had harmed her.
But she didn't dare say much in front of Mo Li, because she could sense Mo Li's hatred for the goddess.
Mo Li naturally understood what Darkness was thinking, smiled, and gently stroked her head.
"Don't worry, she'll soon be our partner!"
"Yes, then I'll go and reply to Father."
Darkness finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Morley's response, as long as Eris's life wasn't harmed.
Mo Li watched Darkness's departing figure, shook his head helplessly, and then disappeared from the spot.
Demon King's Army Base, Training Ground.
Artoria was fighting Susanoo. Both were skilled in close combat and were evenly matched, drawing cheers from the demons below the stage.
The sword and the spiked club clashed together, producing a clang.
The reaction force instantly created distance between the two, and the aftershocks even spread hundreds of meters away.
"As expected of the legendary queen, even though she is a woman, her strength is still not to be underestimated!"
"You're not bad either, I acknowledge your abilities!"
After exchanging compliments, the two charged forward again, their weapons clashing together.
However, both of them were very careful and did not use their killer moves; they were simply fighting with pure strength.
Just as two or three people were preparing to continue fighting, a figure appeared on the arena.
Upon seeing this, Artoria and Susanoo quickly put down their weapons and knelt on one knee.
At the same time, Esdeath and Najenda, leading their demon army, knelt down on one knee below the stage.
"Greetings, Demon Lord!"
"Yes, get up, Saber, Esdeath, Najenda, come with me!"
Mo Li nodded, very satisfied with Esdeath and Najenda's discipline in leading their troops. In the past, such a situation would have been impossible, let alone getting them to kneel down.
After receiving the order, the three of them quickly got up and followed Mo Li into the tent.
Mo Li sat in the main seat, and after the other three were all seated, he said solemnly:
"Saber, prepare the army and station troops on the border of the Southern Empire. War is about to begin!"
"Yes, Master, I am ready."
Artoria immediately stood up and answered solemnly.
The other two also looked extremely excited, especially Esdeath, who licked her lips and her eyes gleamed with excitement. Her heart was beginning to boil.
Although Najenda wasn't as exaggerated as Esdeath, her excitement was palpable.
"Is the battle finally about to begin? How wonderful! Let me witness the strength of this otherworldly army!"
"Heh, Esdeath, don't underestimate our opponents. Those adventurers are no pushovers. Their magic and skills won't be so easy to deal with."
"That's perfect, I wouldn't even consider a weak opponent!"
Esdeath has never known fear; the desire to fight has filled her heart.
Najenda, in comparison, appeared more composed. After pondering for a moment with her head lowered, she asked:
"Are only a few of us officers going? What about Akame and the others...?"
"Night raids aren't suitable for large-scale battles. They have other missions this time, but I'll have Kotori and Kurumi support you, so don't worry!"
Good steel should be used where it's needed most. Night Raid's advantage lies in assassination, so naturally they won't be sent to the battlefield.
Just imagine, if the head of state suddenly disappeared before war broke out, the possibilities for what could happen would be enormous.
Chapter 316 The Noble Banquet, Darkness's Fury
Axel, Dustinis Mansion.
Darkness had returned here several days earlier and, at her father's arrangement, met with the princess.
Today is the day for the banquet with Her Highness the Princess.
Darkness paced back and forth in her room, extremely nervous, after all, it wasn't just anyone who had come, it was the Demon King.
Although that's what I was thinking, I had to force a smile on my face.
At the same time, Mo Li, along with Wiz and Youyou, arrived in front of the Dustinis Mansion.
The largest mansion in Axel is currently under full security.
Normally there aren't that many servants, but perhaps for the sake of appearances, there are more today.
Mo Li discovered many members of the Knights Order hidden in the shadows. Everyone who passed by was stared at with extremely stern eyes.
Thanks to Darkness's prior instructions to the household servants, Mo Li was able to enter the mansion smoothly.
Standing before Mo Li in the entrance hall of the Dastynes Mansion was Darkness, dressed in a pure white gown.
She braided her long blonde hair into a neat braid near her collarbone, which then fell forward from her right shoulder.
"Mr. Mo Li and all the guests, thank you for visiting my humble abode."
"Today, I, Dastynes Ford Lalatina, will be the host. Please make yourselves at home, relax, and enjoy yourselves."
Darkness displayed her aristocratic elegance today, showing none of her usual frivolousness.
Mo Li chuckled, looked her up and down, and nodded. Darkness seemed pretty good this way.
Led by Darkness, Mo Li and the other two arrived at the lounge.
After sending all the servants away, Darkness breathed a sigh of relief, but a tense expression appeared on her face.
"Wiz, Youyou, go over there and change into a dress you like."
"Yes, really we can choose whatever we want?"
"Of course, since it's a meeting with Her Highness the Princess, the more formal the attire, the better."
Wiz and Youyou were overjoyed and quickly grabbed one of their favorite dresses, running into the dressing room.
Since Mo Li can transform on her own, she doesn't need to change into any formal attire; she can simply use the fake witch costume.
Now only Mo Li and Darkness remained, and Darkness's breathing became somewhat rapid.
"Lord Mo Li, I beg you, please don't kill them. Just treat it as a normal gathering."
"Don't worry, as long as that princess doesn't put on any royal airs, I won't bother arguing with her!"
According to Darkness, Alice was only about twelve years old. As long as Alice didn't boss Mo Li around arrogantly, Mo Li wouldn't take a child seriously.
Hearing Mo Li say that, Darkness became even more nervous for some reason.
Not long after, Youyou and Wiz came out of the next room.
After the two women changed into their formal attire, Mo Li was immediately struck by their striking appearance; their style was completely different from their usual looks.
Youyou chose a black off-shoulder dress, which looked very glamorous.
Especially after hearing Mo Li's praise, Youyou lowered her head shyly.
Wiz wasn't quite as stunning as Yoyo, but with her figure, the purple dress made her look even more mature and charming, and no one would recognize her as the Lich from before.
The three stood together, each with their own unique charm, which made Mo Li momentarily stunned.
Soon, led by Darkness, the group arrived at the banquet room.
Darkness turned to face Mo Li, bit her lip lightly, and gave a pleading look.
"Lord Mo Li, please, please don't do anything strange!"
"Don't worry, I'll know what I'm doing!"
Mo Li patted Darkness on the shoulder, neither agreeing nor refusing, and strode into the venue.
Behind the door is a spacious banquet hall that exudes a moderate sense of sophistication without being overly luxurious.
In the room covered with a red carpet, there was a large dining table laden with all sorts of luxurious dishes, while at the other end of the table sat a young girl in a pure white dress.
