◎I’m really not a demon!◎
The textbooks given to Chief Bamboo Bear were all for the enlightenment of the cubs. They were well illustrated with pictures and texts, and were not difficult to understand.
Warren patted the Bamboo Bear chief's shoulder encouragingly, left the Bamboo Bear village under the pitiful gaze of the Bamboo Bear chief, went to the river to catch dozens of fish of different sizes, put them into pottery jars, and carefully cast protective magic to prevent the fish from suffocating to death or being sunburned to death by the hot climate after reaching the Demon Clan.
After completing all the tasks, he looked up at the sky and saw that it was still early, so he decided to go to Beast King City to check out the situation.
He couldn't help but feel curious about the rabbit tribe that could only use dark magic, and he couldn't help but wonder if this was a secret trick used by the gods or the natural elves to make the Beast King confront the Demon Realm.
Besides, if the little rabbit was really a demon, as the Demon King, he should go and rescue it no matter what.
Thinking of this, he teleported several times and soon arrived at the Beast King Capital.
Considering that he didn't even know where the prison was, Warren had no intention of hiding his tracks. He landed in the Beast King City openly and walked leisurely on the road like a tourist.
When he fought here with the God King before, Warren didn't take a serious look at the Beast King City. Now that he has entered the Beast King City, he can't help but feel a little disappointed.
This place was no different from a larger village, with a low wall of about one meter built with mud and gravel all around, and no one had trimmed the overgrown weeds on the roadside. Apart from the occasional orc soldier passing by with weapons, there was no sign of the prosperity that an imperial capital should have.
...
...
Outside the low wall of the Beast King City, one could vaguely see many villages nestled in the mountains and forests. Smoke was rising from some of the villages, as if they were cooking. However, the orcs in these villages stayed far away from the Beast King City. If they got a little closer, they would be on thin ice, fearing that they would be arrested by the orc guards for disrespecting the Beast King.
The only building that can be considered magnificent is the Beast King Palace in the center, which is built with countless logs and stone pillars, inlaid with gorgeous gold and diamonds, and exudes a strong magical atmosphere.
It has only been two months since the Beast King's palace was split open by the sword of the God King. At that time, there were many ruins in the middle. Now it has been almost repaired, with only a few walls left bare. A group of orc guards are carrying gold bricks and trying to stick them on the walls.
"Demon Lord, I have been waiting for a long time."
A strong black bear suddenly appeared behind Warren, standing up, holding a gem scepter that was shining with red light in its hand.
Warren tilted his head to look at him and smiled slightly: "Beast King, long time no see."
Perhaps Warren's attitude was much more indifferent than the Beast King had imagined. The Beast King paused and decided to change the subject to regain his face.
"My imperial capital is pretty good, isn't it?" He raised his furry chin with a smug smile on his face, "Even the Dragon King of the Dragon Clan envied the decoration of the Beast Imperial Capital."
Although he had never been to the Demon Realm, the Black Bear Beast King had long heard the story of how all races united to drive the demons into the Demon Realm. He also knew that the Demon Realm was a barren land of death. In his imagination, that place must be eerie, dirty and evil, even worse than the most remote places in the Beast Realm. Then, looking at his beautiful Beast King Palace, he felt a sense of superiority.
Warren pursed his lips, not wanting to say directly that their Demon King Palace and even the ceramic factory were much taller and more spacious than the Beast King's. He responded in a subtle tone: "I have indeed never seen such a house in the Demon Realm."
Hearing the Demon King's perfunctory response, the Black Bear Beast King felt that he was jealous of him, so he became even more complacent.
However, he was well aware that he could not defeat the Demon King, so he did not dare to show off, for fear that if he angered the Demon King, the Demon King would destroy the Beast King without a care and run away. Or even if he just fought with him, the Beast King was unwilling to take the risk of being injured and killed by his subordinates.
He cleared his throat and said modestly, "It seems that the undercover agent you planted in the beast world, Tugao, has already contacted you. Let me make it short. I have cast a binding magic unique to the beast tribe on that rabbit named Tugao. If you want to counteract that magic, I'm afraid you will have to pay a high price."
His words and actions implied that he wanted to make a deal with Warren.
Although the Black Bear King was a little nervous when he first caught the rabbit, fearing that the Demon King would not care about the life of an undercover agent, but when he saw the Demon King coming in person and obviously attached great importance to the rabbit, the Black Bear King felt relieved and wanted to negotiate with the Demon King with confidence.
He did not intend to propose any excessive conditions, and he did not even mind ceding a portion of the territory on the edge of the Beast Realm to the Demon Realm, using those insignificant orcs to satisfy the demons' bloodlust. He just wanted to make a contract with the Demon King that the demons would never be allowed to invade the Beast King City in any way.
God of Beasts, he has been terrified even when sleeping recently, fearing that one day the demons will come to attack him, or that the Demon King himself will come to assassinate him!
If Warren knew what the Black Bear King was thinking, he would definitely say with disdain that he would not have nothing better to do than to assassinate the King. Not to mention that such behavior would arouse hatred among all the beasts in the beast world and make the gods and natural elves feel insecure. More importantly, he didn't want the beast world to change its King at all.
——This stupid big black bear is the most suitable person to be the King of Beasts. With him as a negative example, Warren's progress in recruiting talents from the beast world seems to have been accelerated. As soon as he opened the door to the Demon Realm and before he could say anything, the fluffy servals and bamboo bears tried to rush in.
However, Warren did not draw the mind-reading card. He just raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of laughter, "My spy in the beast world did contact me, but unfortunately, the rabbit named Tugao is not an undercover agent of our Demon Realm. In fact, I have never heard of her before."
The Beast King's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
His capture of Tugao was not a secret. Not only did many beastmen see it with their own eyes, but most of the beastmen near the Beast King City also heard about it. He even asked the beastmen to spread the news so that the Demon King would know about it and show his wisdom and ability.
Since he had killed a lot of suspicious orcs recently, he was afraid that he had killed all of the Demon King's undercover agents. In order to lure the Demon King to the Beast Palace, he deliberately relaxed the supervision of Tugao, hoping that Tugao could find a way to contact the Demon King by himself.
But how could Tugao not be an undercover agent of the demon clan? He clearly saw Tugao using dark magic with his own eyes!
"You're lying!" The big black bear looked at Warren and accused him fiercely, "I have personally confirmed that Tugao is a demon. If she is not an undercover agent of your Demon Realm, could she be an undercover agent of the God King?"
Warren shrugged helplessly. "I just heard that you have confirmed that this rabbit is a demon, so I came here to take a look out of curiosity. I also want to know why there are demons wandering in the beast world."
The Black Bear King was stunned, and subconsciously felt that what Warren said was very reasonable. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly thought of something, so he glared at him angrily: "I know, you must want to find that rabbit and run away with her!"
Warren's mouth twitched slightly.
It is said that the orcs are good at infighting, and all beast kings, regardless of their strength, have outstanding IQs - but why does he think this black bear is stupid?
He barely maintained his patience: "Didn't you say that you cast a strong binding spell on Rabbit Cake?"
"How do I know if you can break the spell?" The Beast King looked at him warily. "How about this, let's make a contract first. No matter what, you can't take the rabbit cake away without my consent."
As he spoke, his wrist glowed with light, and he had already prepared the contract magic. The deliberately stupid expression and conversation just now were just to make the contract more logical.
Warren lowered his eyes and looked at the black bear, finally realizing that he shouldn't be too polite to this guy.
He is not the God King, and he does not need to care about morality, justice or the peace between the Gods and the Orcs. Anyway, the reputation of the Demons on this continent cannot be any worse, and the Beast King is the one who is too scared to go to war with him.
"Two choices," he said faintly. This time he did not hold back his magic power and directly released his coercion, scaring the Beast King so much that he staggered. "Take me to see the rabbit tribe, or I blow up all the Beast Kings myself. As long as all the buildings are overturned, we can always find the location of the prison."
The Beast King made a prompt decision and admitted his defeat very smoothly: "Please go this way."
The big black bear led the way in front, and from time to time he looked back at the devil strolling leisurely behind him, groaning secretly in his heart.
Compared with the kings of other tribes, the Beast King is relatively weak. The reason why the Beast Tribe has become the most powerful race on the continent after the God Tribe, and even the God King of the God Tribe is unwilling to challenge them, is the tens of millions of orcs in the Beast Tribe.
Although the orcs have a short lifespan, they have a strong reproductive capacity. Compared with a race like the Protoss that may hardly have a cub in thousands of years, they can overwhelm the Protoss even with the human wave tactic.
However, this trick doesn't work against the demons. The demons' dark energy can transform any orc into a demon. They are simply the natural nemesis of the orcs!
Warren didn't care what the Black Bear King was saying. He walked into the prison. This dark and narrow place was filled with hundreds of cages filled with dying orcs. They looked so miserable that Warren couldn't help but change his expression. He looked at the King of Beasts and asked, "What crime did they commit to deserve such treatment?"
The Beast King hesitated, as he was too embarrassed to even bring up the charge of "having secret dealings with the demons" - he was almost certain that these orcs had no connection with the demons at all, and he was just taking the opportunity to capture this group of orcs who might threaten his position.
So he simply pretended not to hear anything, took a few quick steps, and walked to the very end of the prison. He waved his bear claws, and the door that was wrapped in layers of protective magic slammed open.
Warren followed the Black Bear King into this special prison and saw the little rabbit tied behind the bars at a glance.
"Is this the rabbit you were talking about?" Warren asked in confusion, not sensing any demonic aura from the rabbit. "He doesn't practice dark magic at all?"
The Black Bear King said: "This rabbit is just hiding very well. Last time when it came to a life-and-death situation, she immediately used the power of darkness."
Since the Beast King wanted to use this rabbit undercover to make a deal with the Demon King, and was afraid of offending the Demon King, he did not torture the rabbit cake, but only used a binding spell to ensure that she would not run away.
When the wooden door opened, Tugao opened his eyes dazedly. When he heard the conversation, tears started to flow down his cheeks. He shouted in grievance, "I'm really not a demon! The magic I use emits a black light, but it has nothing to do with dark magic!"
"Don't struggle," the Black Bear King sneered, "Do you think anyone will believe your excuses?"
The author has something to say:
Warren: I believe it.
