Fred had already guessed what the three Dark Nobles were up to; they definitely had ulterior motives.
Then, with a piercing gaze, he stared at the one who had deliberately asked the question, "The reason I have always worn a mask and concealed my identity is simply because I don't want anyone to think that I have achieved what I have today and ascended to the highest throne of the demon race by borrowing the appearance and fame of a hero."
On the spot, some of the demons, who were hot-tempered and loyal to the Demon Lord, vehemently accused the three noble black demons of distrusting the Demon Lord and making unwarranted speculations.
The Demon Lord gazed at the magnificent light emanating from the ceiling and slowly said, "It was indeed my oversight that caused you all concern regarding the unusual activity in the Demon Realm and that I failed to inform you of its cause in a timely manner. I have decided that next month—"
"On the last day of the Dawn Moon, let's host a banquet for everyone, and afterwards gather together to discuss the affairs of the Demon Clan in detail. What do you say?"
The nobles of the demon realm nodded in agreement, their enthusiasm dampened considerably.
"Please inform the other nobles who did not arrive at the temple today that you must attend. I would be very happy to have you here."
He then turned to look at the three Dark Lords.
The three of them thought that the Demon Lord was about to unleash punishment. The Black Demon Prince and the Demon Moon Queen were somewhat afraid to look the Demon Lord in the eye, while only the Duke of Chaos remained calm.
"At that time, the three noble black demons must also grace us with their presence. The demon realm is one big family, why bother with so many formalities?"
Only then did the Demon Lord manage to calm everyone down and finally bring the situation back from the brink of chaos.
Seeing that the demon nobles were already excited about the feast, he thought to himself that he wouldn't have time to pay attention to that brat Philsa until the feast was over.
Therefore, it was decided to entrust the task of eliminating Firsa to his subordinates.
The first person Fred thought of to carry out this mission was, of course, Van Thieteren.
-
The thirtieth day of the Dark Moon.
Since his battle with Philsa, Van Titeren has never returned to the Demon Realm, but has instead lingered on the continent of Valentino in search of his enemy's whereabouts.
In the past battle, he was just one step away from killing him, but an adventurer team suddenly appeared and ruined his chance for revenge. He was filled with regret.
Because of his serious injuries, which he hadn't paid much attention to, he often had to rest while walking, which caused him to miss opportunities to hunt down his enemies.
The sun was blazing, and Fan was still walking across the desolate desert. After roughly determining his location, he trekked in a consistent direction, hoping to leave the desert before nightfall.
Since it's not yet the Frozen Moon, the Demon Sea Plagiarism will still occur two hours before nightfall.
Therefore, leaving the desert and finding a place inhabited by people became the primary task for survival.
For the past ten minutes, Fan had noticed a black dot hovering in the sky above him, following him closely, but not quite like a stalker.
Where would you find a clumsy newbie who doesn't conceal their presence and tries to follow others?
Finally, Van impatiently shot a fireball from his hand, knocking down the unpleasant black spot.
A crow was chased down from the sky, its feathers charred black by the fire.
Upon closer inspection, Fan discovered that it was actually a dark raven that had flown in from the Demon Realm, seemingly there to deliver a message.
Humans use white pigeons to deliver letters, while the demon realm uses distinctly different black crows to send messages.
It lay on the ground trembling with fear, blinking its tiny red eyes.
"Why are you following me?" he asked, then conjured a fireball from his hand, enough to burn the crow into roasted birds for tonight.
The demon crow was terrified of both Fan and the deadly fireball in his hand, but its injured wings prevented it from flying. Its beak trembled, and it babbled in human language, "The Demon Lord has sent me to deliver a mission to General Fan..."
After hearing this, Fan extinguished the fireball he was about to release, and replied impatiently and rudely, "What does the Demon Lord want to tell me? I have other important matters to attend to."
"The Demon Lord has sent a mission to hunt down Philsa..."
Fan's eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself, "Hmph, perfect."
"Based on Lord Demon Lord's speculation, Philsa's destination seems to be the northernmost point—the Far North Magic Academy."
"I see! Actually, I had already sensed where that kid was headed."
Seeing that the other party had perked up and its eyes were bright, like a rekindled flame, the demon crow thought it was about to burn it up, so it hurriedly added another item that the Demon Lord had asked it to bring:
"Wait, wait a minute! The Demon Lord learned that General Fan was seriously injured in battle with the enemy, and specifically instructed me to bring medicine..."
Without delay, the crow chanted a short incantation, summoning a basic magic circle half a meter in the air, from which several packets of herbs wrapped and sealed in black bags fell.
Fan found this demon soldier annoying; he seemed weak and cowardly, stuttered, and was slow to act. "Is there nothing else? You can get lost!"
"I am extremely grateful! I must take my leave now!"
Brahma wasn't so bored as to want to massacre a demon soldier, but the demon soldier thought Brahma had that intention. At this moment, the poor demon soldier thought he had given up the killing and thanked him repeatedly.
Finally, his tattered wings allowed him to take flight, so he quickly left the violent killer.
After the demon soldiers left, Fan stared at the several packets of medicine from the demon realm piled on the ground, unmoved.
Why should I accept charity from my enemy?
A few days ago, one of the "Six Sages" made contact with Brahma. She was the only female among them, known among her companions as "Night Demon Butterfly" Youzi.
