The Demon Lord alone wouldn't be so bad; although he was stronger than me, I could still catch him off guard, so I had a chance. But he also had a powerful three-headed monster bird by his side. With both of them together, I had absolutely no chance.

Speaking of which, this demon lord and his pet are truly inseparable.

"Not long ago, my men captured Morgad. Back then, he was my fellow minister, but unfortunately, he was ignorant of the times and refused to submit to fate, remaining my enemy to this day." Recalling the past, the Demon Lord couldn't help but sneer repeatedly.

Zuan: "..."

He was pondering what the other person's intention was in saying all this to him.

At this moment, the Demon Lord continued, "By the way, the Demon Envoy of the Palace has discovered that Salami's subordinates are secretly gathering, presumably planning to rescue Morgard."

“That’s right, Salami is indeed very anxious. Why not take this opportunity to wipe them all out!” Zaun suggested. He knew very well that leaders would only listen to the advice of their true confidants and would be extremely wary of the advice of those they did not trust. They would subconsciously think that the other party’s actions must be problematic and that they should never listen to them.

As expected, the Demon Lord sneered, "Who said I was going to wipe them all out?"

"But such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."

Before Zaun could finish speaking, he was interrupted: "I summoned you here to talk to you about this. You need to find a way to help Salami rescue Morgad."

Zuan was taken aback: "Why is that?"

“Capturing Salame and her group would be a piece of cake for me. The reason I haven’t made a move yet is naturally for my own reasons, which you don’t need to worry about,” the Demon Lord continued. “By helping her rescue Morgard, you can surely gain her complete trust.”

Zaun's mind raced. The Demon Lord had gone to such lengths, clearly wanting to get something from Salami's side. But what could a fallen young lady like her possibly have to scheme for?

"What, is there a problem?" The Demon Lord was somewhat displeased when he remained silent.

“I’m thinking about how to help without arousing Salame’s suspicion,” Zaun said after a moment of thought. “I dare to ask my lord to leave the palace for a while.”
