Chapter 93: Demon King’s Thoughts
In the tavern, Alan was thinking about how to accommodate the three new men. There were only three rooms upstairs, and only two rooms that could be used as guest rooms. How to stay there was a problem.
“Why don’t the three of you temporarily stay in the room that Lolita stayed in before?”
Alan said tentatively. He had already forced them to sign a magic contract, and now he made such a request. He himself knew that it was indeed difficult to accept.
As expected, Beelzebub was the first to object.
“No, I don’t accept staying in the same room with anyone. Moreover, Samael’s feet stink, Asmodeus reeks of alcohol, and their smells make me nauseous.”
Once these words were said, even the uncle who did not care about anything could not remain calm, let alone the angry Samael.
“Beelzebub, what on earth are you talking about, you filthy fly! You bet I will beat you up with a single punch!”
As Samael spoke, he was about to stand up and make his move.
Asmodeus saw that someone had made the first move. He lifted his chair and watched the show carelessly from the side.
When he saw this, Yupanki could only come over to dissuade him.
After a series of chaotic noises, the few of them were somewhat disheveled. They panted and looked at each other.
“Phew, I say, which one of you can control him and make him not be so irritable…” Alan looked at Samael and said awkwardly.
Beelzebub could not maintain his noble manner at the moment. He sat on the side with a dirty face and stared at Samael gloomily, mumbling something that was probably a curse.
Asmodeus completely collapsed on the chair. He looked a little pitiful with a face full of despair.
When Samael was angry, he was like an angry bull. He could not be persuaded or held back. Just now, Asmodeus had slashed the back of his neck several times before he completely fainted.
In the entire tavern, only Ai Xiaohei was still able to maintain her elegance as she combed his her on the bar counter.
“Forget it, forget it. Let’s call it a night. Let’s go rest for now. There are still many things to do tomorrow.”
At this time, it had already exceeded Alan’s usual rest time. If there was anything, they could talk about it tomorrow.
“What else do I have to do tomorrow? I just want to warm up the beautiful girls in this city…” Asmodeus said helplessly.
“Don’t talk nonsense. If you want to move freely, at least wait until you have repaired the damaged bell tower and the streets.” Alan waved his hand and rejected his request.
“I’ll go up and rest first. You guys can decide on the allocation of the rooms first. Yupanki, give me a hand.”
After saying that, Alan left the lobby and went upstairs to rest.
The Abyss.
Lolita, who was forcibly brought back to the Abyss by her father.
This child did not seem to feel that something was wrong with her father. She was telling her father about what she had seen and heard during this period of time.
“Father, the human world is really good. The streets are all clean and big stone slabs. Even when the wind blows, there is no sand.”
“There are also a lot of things to eat. Different tastes, different cooking methods. Alan cooks very well, but it’s a pity that he rarely cooks.”
“Also, the most important thing is that the wine in the tavern is super good. It’s a pity that you can’t go to the human world, father. Otherwise, I will ask Alan to treat you to a drink. He is a super nice person. You will definitely like him…”
On the way, Lolita excitedly talked about her feelings, saying all sorts of things. Demon King understood the same thing. The human world was very good, Alan was good, and the tavern was good.
However, Demon King was dispirited. This little daughter of his had never praised him. What was so good about that human!
“I have been diligently ruling the Abyss for ten thousand years, which is why the Abyss has the life it has now. Moreover, the environment of the Abyss is not good to begin with. To be able to achieve the results it has now, I am undoubtedly the most amazing person.”
Demon King listened to his daughter’s praise for Alan, and he kept cursing in his heart.
Looking at his daughter who kept praising Alan, Demon King was getting more jealous. He wished that he could kill his way into the human world right now and compete with that youth named Alan to see who was more worthy of worship.
“Lolita, when the realm gate was closed just now, what was the light that lit up in the human world? Do you know why that light could ignore the influence of the gray fog?”
Demon King interrupted his daughter’s words and stiffly changed the topic to his own question.
Lolita tilted her head and rested a finger on her cheek. She opened her big eyes and looked at her father innocently.
“Father, that is the blueprint that Alan designed and made by the dwarf. When they discussed it, they said that it is a new energy source that can change the energy structure of the continent.”
Lolita stammered out the process of Alan and Bart making generators and electric lights, but because she did not understand the principles, she could not explain it clearly.
After she finished explaining the principles that she knew, she realized that her father still did not understand it. Lolita was a little disappointed.
She had secretly gone to the human world to share her father’s burden, but when she came back, she could not explain anything clearly.
After Demon King heard her words, he fell into deep thought. Then, he thought of the exchange of gazes between Alan and himself. He understood that the youth was the most important core figure, and he also heard from Lolita that he had other blueprints, so he made up his mind.
After the passage was stabilized, he would immediately contact the demon lords of the human world to snatch this technology back to the Abyss. If it was possible, it would be best to snatch Alan back directly!
“Father!” Lolita did not notice her father’s absent-mindedness. She suddenly thought of something and said excitedly.
“Father, father, if you want to know about the electric lamp, you might as well open the gate again and bring Alan to the Abyss. Not only does he know how to make wine, he also knows a lot of other things!”
Demon King looked at his daughter’s excited look and smiled. He patted her head and said gently.
“Don’t worry. Father knows what to do. My little princess must have had a great time this time. Go tell your mother about this trip. She misses you very much.”
Lolita knew that her father was going to get busy. She obediently jumped out of his arms and said her goodbyes sweetly. Then, she left the room where Demon King was handling government affairs.
Demon King sat on the highest chair, thinking about the information he had just heard, thinking about how he should proceed with his next move.
The human world.
It seemed that the danger had passed, and life could return to peace.
But that was only on the surface. In reality, the greatest danger was still not resolved.
The gray fog that shrouded Rock City continued to increase, showing no signs of dissipating.
The undercurrents between the two empires had yet to subside.
These matters seemed to have nothing to do with Alan, but they were closely related to the people around him.
At this time, he was already in a deep sleep and did not know what kind of situation he would have to face when he woke up the next day.
In the Elven Forest.
At the moment of darkness, the elves felt a tremendous magic power. It was the aura from the Abyss.
The moment they sensed it, Orina immediately led her people to a few spatial nodes in the forest to check out the situation.
However, they found nothing. After returning to the elves’ base, the elders gathered in front of Orina’s door.
“How is it? Did you get anything?”
“The abnormal magic power fluctuation just now must be from the Abyss. It can’t be wrong.”
“But why can’t we find anything at every node?”
…
The elders were all talking about it. Orina frowned and didn’t say a word. She felt that she must have missed something.
Suddenly, she thought of a person, Abraham.
“I think I know why we didn’t find anything at the node in the forest.”
Orina’s words made the elders stop their discussion, and their gazes fell on her.
“Before I came back, people from the Abyss and magical beasts appeared in Rock City. I think the gate of the demon world this time was using human as coordinates.”
Orina’s expression was serious. When she thought of this possibility, the first thing she thought of was not the situation in the Elf Tavern, but whether the powerless youth had encountered danger?
When she thought of the possibility that Alan was in danger, she could not calm down at all. She was thinking of leaving the elf forest immediately and rushing to Rock City.
“Orina, you can’t go. This time, let fourth sister go and investigate the situation. If it really doesn’t work, bring the people from the tavern back to the Elf clan. As for that youth, if there’s a chance, save him.”
The first elder’s words made Orina’s anger surge like wild grass in her heart. That rebellious fire was constantly burning her rationality.
She seemed to agree, but in fact, she had already made up her mind. In a while, she would secretly rush to Rock City alone.
