Having served the Empire for half of his life, Ela was decisively sold out. He intended to flee to another country but was nearly beaten to death during his escape before being saved by a dragon-gi...
"Ugh~ the bed in the Demon King's territory is definitely the most comfortable..."
As Satan Ye said this, she stretched and then groggily opened her eyes... Unlike usual, Sirina didn't immediately come to help her, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
“Siri…”
Satan Ye, who was calling out to the other person, glanced at the bed beside her and immediately lowered her voice. She looked at Sirina sleeping peacefully on the bed and a smile immediately appeared on her face. She tried her best to smile softly.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
How should I put it? This was the first time Satan Ye had seen Sirina wake up later than her. Usually, every time Satan Ye woke up, all she could see was Sirina, who had been waiting beside her from the very beginning.
It's really rare to see Sylvia oversleep these days.
...
Wait, is there an early morning court session today?!
"Sylina! Sylina, Sylina!"
Seeing that it was already getting late, Satan hurriedly called out to Sirina. Almost on the second call, Sirina woke up, and almost instantly realized what was happening, saying, "Sorry! Demon Lord! I overslept!"
"Today should have been our first morning assembly since we returned... I'm sure everyone has been waiting for a long time!"
While speaking urgently and putting on her clothes, Shirina ordered the succubus maids waiting beside her, "This time, I'm counting on you."
Yes, the reason for "this time" is that although they are Satan Ye's personal maids, before this... there was almost never a time when they needed to be of any use.
However, these succubus maids did not immediately help Satan Ye get dressed... not only because Satan Ye was already dressing himself and they could not help him.
"In fact, Lord Illa has been here..."
A succubus maid said this respectfully, "Lord Yinla has finished handling the court assembly. He said you might be too tired, so he wants you to rest more."
That being said, I am indeed quite tired... Otherwise, Irina wouldn't have been able to sleep for so long. But strictly speaking, shouldn't Illa be the one who is the most tired?
After all, the two of them were just on vacation, while Ira actually did a lot of things, such as fighting and trading. The only thing Sirina did was... to become the master of the underground Demon King's castle.
Hmm, what? You're asking... where is the underground Demon King's castle?
In fact, we're still in hell.
...
Neither Ira, nor Sirina, nor Satanye realized that... that teleportation magic circle, although it was a divinely created array with extremely fast speed, clearly came at the cost of its limited carrying capacity.
In other words, the underground Demon King's Castle cannot bring back the Prime Material Plane.
So Hehe and the others are still living here, but they had already moved all their things out before, and suddenly they said they could move back... I really feel like I've been tricked.
However, Sirina has already unlocked most of the permissions for the Underground Demon King's Castle, so Hehe and the others' lives will probably be more modern now, because Sirina has activated many advanced facilities in the Underground Demon King's Castle.
For example... motion-activated candles (they light up when someone walks by).
Therefore, if they wanted to move the underground Demon King's City back to the Prime Material Plane, they would really need to build a relatively large teleportation array, which the three of them obviously did not have at the moment.
So the matter was dropped... but the trip to hell wasn't entirely fruitless.
"Lord Yinla has informed us that guests from the Duchy of the Demon King have arrived... If you are awake, you can go directly to the vicinity of the Blood Pool to find him, and he will go with you to meet the guests."
As for the succubus maid, Sirina, who had already changed into her usual proper attire, helped Satan Ye quickly change his clothes while asking, "Guest? What guest?"

If it were a lord from another territory, such careful treatment would be unnecessary. So... is it a tribal chief from the Orc Kingdom? Or an important member of the Duchy? Or even a visitor from the Dwarf Kingdom?
Could it be that nobles from the empire have arrived?
“Member of the Principality of Hazard, Elikanmu Novak, and Marigarita Orfilus.”
Shirina had never heard of the latter's name, but the former... must be Grand Duke Novak, right? So, this trip to the Demon King's territory is for trade or something?
This question may only be confirmed after we meet in person.

"Slow down the blood extraction...control the rate of releasing the water, yes, yes, yes..."
Yinla directed the goblins from the original blood pool to a new pool that had already been dug on the other side... The new pool was paved with special stone bricks, on which dense runes could be seen.
Nearby, many golems supported stone statues that required assumptions; these were also part of the new blood pool...
Some of the golems brought back from the ruins also participated in the work, led by Xiao Gang as always... It is also worth mentioning that among the new constructs, there are some [Serpent Sphere Constructs].
What does this mean? It means that some of the golems can transform themselves into a ball, just like a mecha, and then combine with each other to form a giant serpentine construct.
