The Hero Reborn as a Demon King Loli

Thinking this, Lulu said to Chloe, "Alright, enough joking around. Just don't tell Lulum that I told you about the 'Abyss Order.' Let's talk about what we heard earlier..."

“Yes, that’s right…” Chloe nodded as soon as Lulu finished speaking.

However, it seems that her gaze was not on Lulu Xin.

But Lulu didn't pay attention to these details and continued speaking to Chloe:

“I’ve been an undercover agent among humans for so many years, and to be honest, I really want to go back. But you probably know the current situation of the demon race better than I do, and the Abyss Order seems to be making some big moves in the human race recently… So I plan to send you back and then continue my undercover work…”

Halfway through the conversation, Lulu seemed to realize that there was no point in talking to Chloe about these things, so she immediately changed the subject.

"I'll tell Lulum about my plans. You must have overheard our conversation in the alley, right? What I want to tell you is that I probably won't have time to take you back in the next couple of days, because I need to find a way to stop the Abyss Order members from becoming heroes... If the Abyss Order members become heroes, I don't know what kind of trouble they'll cause..."

"Speaking of Lulu, do you have a way to get me into the Hero Selection?" Seeing Lulu bring up this matter, Chloe's attention immediately returned to Lulu, and she asked her.

Regardless, she's definitely going to get involved in this selection of heroes.

Chapter 133 You're a Demon! (Two-in-One)

Regarding participating in the Hero Selection and preventing the Abyss Order from obtaining the title of Hero, Chloe actually wanted to ask Luluxin... or rather, "Lord Holy Dragon" for help from the very beginning.

Today should be the preliminary selection, and she has already missed it. Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for her to join midway.

But after all, "Holy Dragon Lord" is "one of our own," and given Lulu's status in the church, there must be a way for her to "go through the back door" and join the Hero Selection midway.

Chloe was wondering how to bring this up with Lulu, but luckily, Lulu overheard the Abyss Order's loud conspiracy, which saved Chloe a lot of time explaining.

Those two members of the Abyss Order were really unlucky. They thought they were "plotting" and even carefully chose a secluded corner, but because Lulu Xin was nearby and discovered their connection, they ended up being the ones who exposed themselves and became clowns.

The moment Chloe learned that Lulushen was the "Holy Dragon" in the alley, she understood why she hadn't triggered the alarm the two people had mentioned when she passed through the alley with the alarm barrier.

Since Luluxin had already been eavesdropping before her, the alarm barrier was probably destroyed by Luluxin using some covert means long ago.

As for why Lulu didn't just take action and kill those two members of the Abyss Order... Chloe guessed that it was probably because she didn't want to alert them.

Or rather, given her status, it's not appropriate for her to make a move.

After all, this is a "cult," it can't just be those two people. There might be more than one member of the cult participating in the Hero Selection...

Moreover, judging from the intelligence they've heard, the Abyss Order is also cooperating with the Church. If Lulu Xin were to act rashly, she wouldn't know how to explain it to the Church... After all, compared to the "open conspiracy" of destroying the Abyss Order, the identity of an undercover agent who can keep revealing the "conspiracy" is still more important.

However, just as Chloe had expected, since Luluxin had overheard the conversation between the two members of the Abyss Order, as a member of the Demon Clan, she certainly wouldn't stand idly by.

Chloe could have guessed from Lulushin's decision to make her wear armor stained with her scent to disguise her identity and infiltrate the church that she could have taken Lulushin directly back to the demon realm, but instead made her wear armor to disguise her identity. Chloe suspected that Lulushin had some plans, which was why she couldn't send her back immediately.

The only thing that could make her change her mind at the last minute was what she had just heard.

Sure enough, after Lulu settled down, she said she had to deal with this matter, so she planned to leave Chloe at the church for a few days.

Since both Luluxin and Chloe had their own ideas about the Abyss Order's actions, Chloe felt there was no need to waste words with Luluxin. So Chloe directly told Luluxin that she wanted to participate in the Hero Selection.

Lulu was somewhat surprised after hearing Chloe's words, because she hadn't expected Chloe to want to participate in the Hero Selection...

"Although the preliminary rounds are over, with my authority, I should be able to let you directly participate in the selection... But why do you want to run for the Hero?"

Lulu asked Chloe with some confusion.

Chloe didn't answer Lulu's question immediately, but instead asked in return:

"Then let me ask you, how do you plan to stop the Abyss Order's actions?"

"This... I'll try using my connections among humans and the authority of the church... If all else fails, I'll have to intervene by force..."

In response to Lulu's straightforward answer, Chloe shook her head and said:

"Don't forget what you heard before. The church has already cooperated with the cult. I think you'll most likely have to intervene forcefully... But forceful intervention would probably have a significant impact on your ability to continue as an undercover agent, right?"

"It should still be within my tolerance... and it's not like I'll necessarily intervene forcefully. Using my network of connections could very well allow me to sabotage the Abyss Cult behind the scenes, at least to prevent them from becoming heroes... It'll just take some time to deal with those little brats... it'll be a bit troublesome..."

Lulu immediately answered Chloe's question, but her tone seemed a little hesitant... she didn't seem very confident.

If she were left to do it all by herself, she would definitely just go for the reckless end… Chloe thought.

In fact, Lulu knew that she really wasn't very confident, after all, for the past few hundred years she had only acted as a "guardian" in the church... to put it simply, a "mascot".

The church granted her those rights because of her age and the intense holy light emanating from her; she was undoubtedly a senior member of the church. Giving her those rights was merely a formality to make things easier for this "elderly" person; in reality, these rights were almost entirely useless.

In addition, as an undercover agent, she is definitely not allowed to be an administrator in the church yet... Well, if it weren't for her laziness, she would have already gained real power.

It's worth noting that two of the church's current ten "elders" are her students...

"So, you're not 100% sure?" As a fellow traveler, Chloe saw right through Lulu's lazy nature and stared at her with a sharp look, saying this to her.

"What can I do? I don't even know if those little guys will listen to me. If all else fails, I'll just have to intervene... Anyway, I already know who the real hero is among those who participated in the selection. Letting that good-for-nothing take the place isn't out of the question..."

Lulu was about to defend herself when Chloe immediately interrupted her:

"Since you've put it that way, is there a problem with me participating in the Hero Selection, kicking out all the suspected members of the Abyss Cult, and personally sending that 'trash' to the top?"

"No problem, no problem, but... do you have the ability?"

Lulu said to Chloe in a questioning tone.

When she teased Chloe before, she had roughly figured out Chloe's strength. In addition, considering the "physical condition" issue that Chloe had mentioned to her before, Lulu felt that if she were to go on stage like this, she probably wouldn't last long.

-_-＃

When Chloe saw that Lulusin actually questioned her strength, her temper flared up instantly.

If she went to participate in the hero selection alone, she might certainly fail, but...

"You think I don't have the ability to participate in the Hero Election?"

When Chloe asked this question, Lulu nodded without hesitation.

Lulu nodded halfway through when Chloe immediately patted the armor that Lulu had placed beside her and said to her:

Is this enough?

"Your defenses are strong enough, but you can only take hits."

Lulu knew that the armor she gave Chloe was only so-so in terms of defense, but she still didn't think that Chloe could stand out on the stage of the Hero Election just by being a "coward".

"Is this enough?"

In response to Lulu's answer, Chloe pulled out a missile from who-knows-where.

"Your attack power is sufficient, but you're trying to take us all down with you."

Seeing the missile in Chloe's hand, Lulu instinctively replied.

"If we add this to this, will we be able to beat the Hero Selection Tournament?"

"Yes, it's possible, but weapons and equipment are not allowed on the selection field... By the way, where did you get this missile? How come it's exactly the same as mine?"

Lulu looked at the missile in Chloe's hand, pointed to the "Dongfang-31A Intercontinental Ballistic Cruise Missile" that Chloe had placed aside, and asked Chloe with a puzzled expression.

"Oh, this is my ability. This missile is just a projection. Bringing it onto the field shouldn't be a problem, right? ...And if I accidentally put a real one inside the projection, no one should notice, right? Even if they do notice...you should be able to get the referee to turn a blind eye, right?"

Chloe said with a smile.

"Are you being inhuman?" Lulu retorted instinctively in response to Chloe's comment.

"I am a demon, thank you."

Lulu felt a little embarrassed by Chloe's answer, because what Chloe said was indeed true... and what she said was indeed feasible, but the method was really a bit despicable.

This made Lulu Xin think of the previous hero...emm...compared to the previous hero, Chloe's actions seem to be alright.

"You won... This tactic really works. I'll cover for you later, and it should be fine... Let's arrange it like this. It's getting late now. I'll talk to the person in charge of the Hero Selection tomorrow morning. You should rest now; I'm feeling a bit tired..."

Lulu thought about it for a moment and finally agreed with Chloe's idea. Then she said that she was going to rest.

Thinking about how much she still had to do tomorrow, she felt a wave of exhaustion.

For a lazy person like her, work is pure torture...

However, Chloe couldn't let Lulu go to rest like that... Seeing that Lulu indicated she wanted to sleep, Chloe immediately picked up the communication scroll on the table and said to Lulu:

“My ‘Dragon King’, I just spoke with Lulum, and she has something to say to you about the ‘Abyss Order’ that you mentioned to me… Would you like to take this call?”

"??? You contacted Lulu? And you told her about it?!" Hearing Chloe say this, Lulu, who was originally a little sleepy, instantly woke up... out of fright.

Lulu's angry appearance is so terrifying that Lulu feels she can't bear it just recalling it.

“I didn’t tell Lulum, you told Lulum all of this yourself…”

Chloe waved her left hand, revealing a green-glowing contract mark on it, and said to Luluxin.

"You can't possibly be using communications, can you? It's still on? Are you a demon?!"

Lulu said to Chloe in a trembling voice.

"I am a succubus, thank you."

Finally, Lulu Xin took the initiative to contact Lulu Mu... This time she was truly apologetic. She was lying on her back with her belly exposed, showing her sincerity... Of course, in dragon form.

Lulum, though angry through the communication projection, couldn't do anything to Lulushin through the communication... so she nagged Lulushin all night with a dark expression that Chloe had never seen before.

Incidentally, Chloe clearly noticed that Lulum was exhibiting obvious "shifting" behavior, which Chloe guessed was because Lulum was tired of talking...

In short, early the next morning, Lulu Xin practically skipped off to get down to business.

……

"Lulu Xin, what kind of efficiency is this...?"

Chloe, standing at the hero selection site, thought to herself, "This is what I'm thinking."

The first round of the Hero Selection Tournament was scheduled to start at 9:00 AM, but Lulu Xin ran out as soon as it was light and it's already 8:30 AM and she still hasn't been settled.

As for why Chloe was in the venue when she wasn't properly arranged, and how she knew the start time of the selection competition... what? Weren't they letting us in with tickets? The competition time was written on the ticket.

Yes, Chloe is in the audience now, and she bought her own ticket to get in.

However, because Chloe's disguise card was still on cooldown, she was wearing the armor that Luluti had given her.

Because she is not powered by magic, others can easily tell that she is a strange person wearing ill-fitting armor.

After all, she was less than 1.3 meters tall, yet she was wearing armor that made her 1.7 meters tall. Even though Chloe had filled her leg and gauntlets with vines, it couldn't hide the awkwardness.

Because Chloe couldn't move her joints at all, she looked like a tin zombie.

If Chloe hadn't been wearing that armor, radiating an aura that made her "unapproachable"...or rather, a holy light, someone might have called the police.

Chloe realized that time was running out, and even the selection competition was almost time for the host to give the "opening speech"!

Lulu Xin hasn't contacted her yet... They had agreed this morning that she would wait at the venue, and Lulu Xin would notify her to go to the contestants' backstage once she had made the arrangements... But now it's almost time to start!

Has she not finished negotiating yet? What kind of efficiency is this?

Just as Chloe was thinking this, she suddenly heard a deep male voice, and the voice seemed familiar.

Then, Chloe looked towards the center of the hall… where a towering figure, about 1.9 meters tall and clad in pure white heavy armor, spoke into a microphone:

"The Hero Selection Tournament is about to begin. Let me introduce myself. I am Lancelot, the [Holy Spirit Dragon]. I will be hosting and explaining the entire Hero Selection Tournament for you..."

Hearing that slightly familiar voice, seeing that familiar heavy armor, and that dazzling holy light, Chloe couldn't help but exclaim... Isn't that Luluxin?

Wasn't she off to discuss "serious business"? How did she end up here at the Hero Selection Tournament as a "host"?

Chloe looked completely bewildered as she stared at Luluti on the stage.

Chapter 134 Achievement: The Legend of the Headless Horseman

So, Lulu said she was going to argue with someone, right?

Why did I end up being the "host" of the Heroes' Tournament?

What happened to our promise to use our connections to find someone to help stop the Abyss Order's plot?

What's going on here?

Just as Chloe was wondering, Lulu seemed to notice Chloe as well.

So, as soon as she finished her opening remarks, she quietly nodded at Chloe.

Looking at Luluxin who nodded in her direction, Chloe thought... she didn't understand what she meant.

Are you trying to tell me that this is your deal and that everything has been agreed upon? Or are you trying to tell me that this whole thing was thanks to my actions?

Nodding behind a helmet that hides your face, who knows what you mean?

That's not fair!
