The Hero Reborn as a Demon King Loli

Unexpectedly, she brought up all her panels.

Character Panel

Name: Elena

[Race: Human Race]

[Attribute: light]

[Ability: Intermediate Light Magic (Expand)]

Level 13 (Intermediate)

[Note: Ha, I don't believe you, a peeping tom, wouldn't look at other people's panels. ?▽?]

Intermediate-level human? Chloe stared at her character panel, somewhat stunned.

This is the inner area of ​​the Starry Forest! How did a mid-level player get in here?

Chloe looked puzzled as she observed the girl's level.

However, Chloe then looked at her status panel.

Status Panel

[Status: Weak & Coma]

HP: 100%

[mp: 15%]

[sp: 8%]

"Your magic power and stamina are severely depleted, and the injuries are all superficial?... What happened?"

Looking at the girl's obviously strange panel, Chloe frowned and thought.

This situation is as if someone had been toying with and tormenting her all the way here.

"How did a mid-level human manage to get to this place while being toyed with and tortured? And how did she pass through the barrier set up by Lulum?"

Chloe's doubts deepened even more about this mysterious girl.

These questions should be asked of the girl herself after she wakes up.

Chloe looked at the unconscious girl, her body tattered and her face covered in blood. Chloe decided to settle her down first and ask her what happened when she woke up.

So Chloe took the girl into her home.

Chloe cleaned the blood off the girl's body. Looking at the girl's delicate face, it was hard to imagine what kind of torment she had gone through to become like that.

After cleaning and settling the girl in, Chloe left home to fulfill her purpose for the trip.

She hadn't forgotten the purpose of her trip home: to find that potato.

……

While Chloe was searching for potatoes at the spot where she had been training, Lucas encountered a difficult situation.

He originally planned to ambush the two super monsters, taking down one by surprise and then slowly dealing with the second. However, he never expected that his plan would fail from the very beginning.

Just as his attack was about to strike the Vajra Demon Ape's vitals, the Vajra Demon Ape and the Azure Sky Demon Python suddenly appeared ten meters away from him. They didn't even glance at him before continuing their pursuit of Lin Feier.

Why did the Vajra Demon Ape and the Azure Sky Demon Python suddenly appear ten meters away from him? Lucas wondered, but before he could ponder for long, a clapping sound coming from within the domain caught his attention.

"As expected of the Shadow King, with that one move, the only two super magical beasts in this forest will probably perish here."

It was a petite figure shrouded in a black robe, but the voice that came out was a deep, resonant male voice, clearly a disguise.

Looking at the dense, twisted patterns on the figure's black robe, Lucas instantly confirmed the man's identity.

"Hmph, I knew it! So that's why those two super monsters infected the Abyss for no reason. It was you rats who were behind it... Judging by the markings on your body, little guy, you're a member of the Abyss Order, aren't you?"

Standing outside the area, Lucas spoke in a mocking tone, but he dared not move an inch and remained constantly vigilant of his surroundings.

He dared not make any rash moves until he figured out the abilities of this suspected Abyss Cult leader.

He also secretly contacted the other four Heavenly Kings.

"Little guy? Heh... It doesn't matter. But Shadow King Lucas, you really misunderstood me. It wasn't me who infected the Abyss with these two monsters. They came to the Abyss on their own initiative. I just went with the flow."

The person who had tacitly acknowledged his status as a member of the Abyss Order remained unmoved by Lucas's taunts, simply speaking to Lucas in a mocking tone within that area.

"Do you think I would believe the nonsense of your Abyss Cult? You bunch of rats who only know how to hide in these dark corners, how many shameless things have you done?"

Lucas continued sarcastically.

Judging from the aura of this Abyss Order leader, Lucas believed that this person's strength was far inferior to his own, and might not even have reached the Saint level.

But his instincts told him that the small figure was very dangerous and he couldn't get any closer.

Lucas intuited that the problem likely lay in that area.

Although the heavy pressure domain that had merged with the anti-magic domain was much less powerful after the Vajra Demon Ape left, the anti-magic domain itself was unaffected by the departure of its main body.

This person seems unaffected by the anti-magic field, since she did indeed influence my judgment within it just now... Was it mental magic? Or has she merged her own field into the fields of those two magical beasts?

If this is the source of this person's arrogance, then if I can trick her out, then it should be possible... But this person doesn't take my sarcasm to heart. How can I get this person to come out?

Just as Lucas was quickly thinking of a solution, the cadre stepped forward on his own initiative.

“You think you can surpass me outside of this area? You’re welcome to try… But I do want to be friends with you, Shadow King Lucas… However, given that you demons are all all talk and no action, I have a proposal: you take a step back if you want to be friends with me, but if you feel you’ve had enough of living, then walk towards me.”

After the Abyss Order member emerged from the domain, he stood with his arms crossed and spoke to Lucas in a flippant tone, as if he completely disregarded Lucas.

How does this guy know what I'm thinking? And even though his aura is much weaker than mine, I can't muster the slightest courage to resist.

Lucas looked at the short figure in front of him and couldn't help but swallow hard.

He actually felt a pressure from this guy that only a demon king could exert, even though this guy's aura was so weak that it didn't even seem like a saint level... What was going on?

But before he could figure out what this pressure was all about, the short Abyss Order officer burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, so Shadow King, you've chosen to be my friend after all?"

Chapter 73 The user you dialed is busy.

It's a mental magic spell, and I've already been affected?

Looking at the laughing figure in front of him, Lucas sensed something and broke out in a light sweat.

But he quickly calmed down because he had already assessed the capabilities of the cult leader in front of him.

In his mind, he hadn't moved at all, but his current position inexplicably shifted back a step when the cult leader laughed.

And it just happened to be one of his usual "steps".

This can only be explained by mental magic.

No wonder the leaders of this Abyss Cult seem so rational, completely different from those lunatics. Strong mental strength can indeed help them maintain their rationality even when infected.

As for what the cult leader said about befriending him and getting him to join the Abyss Cult, he felt that the person was simply toying with him.

First of all, allowing him to befriend members of the Abyss Order is an insult to his identity.

Secondly, once you reach the Saint level, unless you directly come into contact with the source of the Abyss, it is impossible to infect the Abyss. This is why only people of their level are qualified to come into contact with Abyss events. Therefore, even if someone is the highest-ranking cadre of the Abyss, it is impossible for them to allow someone who has not been infected by the Abyss to join the Order.

Moreover, it's not meaningless for Lucas to waste his time here with this person.

As mentioned before, he has already urgently contacted the other four Heavenly Kings, and he is now just waiting for support.

Furthermore, as one of the veteran Four Heavenly Kings, Lucas also realized that this person might not actually be as strong as him, but was just using strange mental magic to put pressure on him, preventing him from making any rash moves.

Judging from the fact that this person had been toying with him without making a move, Lucas was 90% certain of his own idea.

However, as someone who has survived for thousands of years, he no longer has the passion of a young person. So even if he senses that this person's strength is likely not a threat to him, he still needs to wait for the right opportunity.

Three minutes until reinforcements arrive... then we might even be able to capture this person alive...

These were Lucas's inner thoughts the instant after he discovered the abilities of the Abyss Order's leaders.

Although his inner thoughts might be exposed due to the influence of mental magic... so what?

The Abyss Order officer did indeed know Lucas's thoughts, so after laughing, he put on a bored expression.

"As expected of the Shadow King, you noticed so quickly? How boring... And your reinforcements are coming too? Then I'm not playing with you anymore..."

"Hmph, trying to leave? Too bad it's too late." Lucas said with a sneer, looking at the cult leader who was showing signs of wanting to leave.

Then, centered on the cult leader who was preparing to retreat, three areas surrounded her.

At the same time, two figures appeared from the void.

After learning that the cult leader in front of him could read his thoughts, Lucas was of course not going to obediently let the person read his mind. He had already activated an item that could counter mental magic.

In fact, the other two of the Four Heavenly Kings had already arrived while he was thinking about "three minutes".

He deliberately let the leader of the cult read this thought in order to lower his guard.

"Crimson King Tepera, Demon King Miukia, besides that one, three of the Four Heavenly Kings have come? This is truly my honor."

Looking at the two figures that appeared from the void, the cult leader, dressed in black robes and who had never shown his face or revealed his true voice, spoke in a calm tone. Even though he was surrounded by three domains, he showed no sign of panic.

"Just surrender obediently. Considering how rational you are... you probably won't choose to self-destruct like ordinary members of the cult, right? Don't worry, as a cadre of the Abyss Cult, you are of great use to us. As long as you cooperate obediently, we will not treat you unfairly."

Looking at the still calm cult leader in front of him, Lucas said with a cold smile.

The moment the cult leader was surrounded, the mental pressure exerted on him vanished, no matter how calmly he tried to appear.

This religious leader is already their "caged bird".

"It seems I was truly underestimated... Lucas, my friend, you didn't really think I didn't notice you countered my mental magic, did you? But did you really succeed in countering it?"

"What do you mean?" Lucas instinctively became alert after hearing what the cult leader said.

Then, the short, black-robed figure gradually faded away before the eyes of the three peak Saint-level beings, until it disappeared completely.

Before disappearing completely, this cult leader laughed in a mocking tone:

"Goodbye everyone, I'll miss you all~ Hahaha..."

"A clone?! When was it replaced?"

Lucas looked bewildered.

……

The place where Chloe exercises isn't actually very big, and since she levels the plants on the surrounding ground while she's exercising, finding a potato isn't difficult.

So Chloe quickly found the potato.

Fortunately, the potato Chloe carelessly tossed happened to land on a damp patch of ground.

And not only did the potato not spoil, it also successfully sprouted.

This trip was definitely worthwhile! Looking at the sprouting potatoes on the ground, Chloe was certain that this was a plant that could be successfully grown in this world.

With this potato, Chloe felt she was about to achieve the feat of "completely stopping the demon invasion."

Unfortunately, the system's achievement module wasn't fixed; otherwise, it would have been a reward of a full 10 points.

After finding the potato, Chloe immediately activated the communication scroll, wanting to contact Lulum to send someone to pick her up, and also to tell Lulum about the situation where she had found a human girl.

But when she activated the communication scroll, she found that she could not contact Lulum.

It wasn't a problem with the communication scroll, but when Chloe started the scroll, a notification sound came from it: "The user you are calling is busy, please try again later."

Well, so this communication reel isn't a dedicated line after all?

Hearing that familiar notification tone, Chloe thought with a dark expression.

Fortunately, this scroll wasn't a one-time use item. Chloe thought to herself.

However, since Lulum was busy, Chloe decided to wait a while before contacting Lulum again.

Anyway, she wasn't in a hurry, so she decided to wait until Lulum finished her work first.

Furthermore, if Lulum discovers that she hasn't returned to the Demon King's Castle by nightfall, she will definitely take the initiative to contact her.

Besides, this is also her and Lulu's home. It's not impossible for her to go back to her hometown for a day or two.

With that in mind, Chloe decided to go home and rest for a while first.

When Chloe entered the room, she was somewhat surprised to find that the unconscious girl had actually woken up.

"Demon?!"
