◎Another lich has been captured!◎
"Twinkle, twinkle little star, the sky is full of little stars~"
The familiar Hulu carried a wicker basket, humming happily, and scooped out the sieved red stone particles with a dustpan and put them into the food bowl for the roast chicken.
The flock of roasted chickens had long been familiar with this demon who fed them food and combed their feathers every day. They all gathered around him, swaying their necks back and forth to the singing and chirping from time to time.
Not far away, the demon soldier Alex, who had just finished breakfast and had not yet arrived at his patrol shift change time, was wandering around bored. When he saw two winged demons dragging a large box of black beans towards the kitchen, he enthusiastically ran over to help, easily carrying the black beans and singing loudly as he walked.
"Little bunny, dear! Open the door! Open it quickly! I want to come in!"
It would be more accurate to say that he was roaring rather than singing. The two winged demons were startled by him and flew into the air with flapping wings, hugging each other in fear.
"Actually, we can deliver the black beans ourselves." Winged Demon Keji covered his ears, feeling that he would soon become deaf.
The other winged demon tilted its head and gave an objective comment: "Although it sounds bad, it does sound like the big bad wolf that the king talked about who only wanted to eat rabbits."
Being stared at with resentment by the two winged demons, Alex quickly stopped singing, scratched his head sheepishly, and chuckled: "Come to think of it, I have indeed caught many flaming rabbits before, but I have never encountered one as smart as the one in the story that can sing. If the rabbits I caught before could sing, I would definitely not eat them. I must catch them in the military camp and let them sing every day!"

The singing craze that arose in the Demon King's Palace started with the card that Warren drew not long ago.
After drawing the SSR card [It's You], he did not continue drawing cards due to the interruption of the little lich Tok. It was not until he returned to the bedroom in the evening that he took off the Demon King's Crown and drew cards again.

After activating the card, Warren listened to a few songs and found that they were catchy. Most of them had accompanying MVs and even told a complete and vivid story. He immediately added the songs to the small classes every night, allowing the magic soldiers to learn magic writing through the lyrics.
So, naturally, although the progress of learning magic words varies from demon to demon, almost all demons have learned to sing.
Warren also began to think about whether he should check the magic runes mastered by the demons to determine whether he should continue to teach new magic runes or consolidate the magic runes he had learned before.
"For demons who are not good at magic words, they can find a teacher to teach them, just like a math tutoring class," he wrote and drew in the memo. "It just so happens that the Demon King's Palace can give tutoring fees to the tutors, which can also motivate everyone's enthusiasm for learning."
After completing a complete set of plans and preparing even the magic runes and short sentences for the inspection, Warren called the Dark Iron Dwarf Tiechui and asked him if he could make more boards similar to accounting boards for writing.
Nowadays, most demons practice magic words by scratching on the soil with tree branches. There are small blackboards for writing, but they are made of a rare black stone. Currently, the Demon King's Palace is unable to equip all the demons with them. In addition to the podium and spare blackboards for lectures, only the cafeteria and grocery store have blackboards for price lists and temporary bill recording.
In order to facilitate accounting and docking, the Dark Iron Dwarves forged a magical device called an accounting board. This device is very similar to the scoreboard in front of the military camp. As long as magic power is used to input the number of products produced or consumed, the value will be permanently recorded on the board.
Warren felt that this thing was very suitable for writing for the demons, and it could also train them to use their magic power, killing two birds with one stone.
Tiechui showed an embarrassment and said, "My lord, the crystal core needed for that kind of account board is even rarer than the black stone used for the blackboard. All the stock in our Demon King's Palace has been used to make account books. The remaining stock can only make ten more account books at most."
A lot of ore was obtained from the transactions with the bat demons. The construction team would often dig underground when building houses and the farming team would cultivate the land. The goblins were experts at mining. The ore reserves of the Demon King's Palace had increased several times compared to before. The only thing was the crystal cores that served the purpose of contract and communication and were rarely used before, but were consumed very quickly.
Warren sighed, "Okay, that's okay, I'll think of other ways."
Unable to bear the disappointment of his own king, Tiechui stood up straight, clenched his fists, and was full of fighting spirit: "My king, I will go back and study now! I will definitely find a way to forge a writing board!"
"Okay, let's work hard together, but don't worry," Warren curled his eyes and waved his hand to signal him to calm down. "I was thinking about how to check everyone's mastery of magic runes. I thought it would be easier to use a ledger. If that doesn't work, writing them on the ground and checking them one by one is also fine."
He was just about to ask Tiechui about the reserves of various minerals when he suddenly heard a chaotic sound of footsteps. Looking up, he saw the demon butler Lille rushing into the hall.
Lil reported loudly: "My king, there is a lich causing trouble outside and has been captured by Arabella!"
Warren was stunned for a moment and almost thought he had traveled back to last month.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the corner of the hall, and saw that the little lich Tok was still lying there, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Most likely you're here to see Tok," he said, standing up from the throne and turning to look at Tok, "Will you come with me?"
Tok hesitated.
Today, when Tok is alone with Warren, he can leave his corner and sit on the small stool next to Warren to help him pour tea or organize the account board, and sometimes he can even speak a few words, but he still doesn't want to get too close to other demons.
Thinking that there might be blood in a while, Warren thought it was okay for the little lich not to go, so he waved his hand and said, "Then you sit in the hall, I'll be back soon."
Signaling Tiechui to go back to work, Warren followed Lear out of the hall. After taking a few steps, he felt his feet were heavy. Looking down, he saw a ball of gray mist quietly circling around his legs.
Warren laughed, lifted up the cloud of mist and shook it until Tok turned back into a human. He patted his wrinkled collar and tacitly allowed him to follow him closely.
"Alec was in charge of the patrol today," Liel told the Demon King what he knew on the way, "When he was on patrol, he found traces of the lich. Because he was worried that the lich would escape, he led the team to follow it and sent the magic soldiers back to tell Arabella."
As a result, the two liches became very alert and found that they were being followed by demon soldiers. They immediately turned into gray mist and fled. Alex chased them for a long time like chasing a rabbit. When he was exhausted and out of breath, the reinforcement team led by Arabella finally arrived with a huge snakeskin bag and directly covered the gray mist into the bag.
Arabella did not untie the bag of gray fog, but carried it directly back to the barracks. On the way, she happened to meet Lil and asked Lil to report to the king.
It's not that they can't bring the lich directly to the Demon King's Palace, but the Demon King's Palace is too close to the factory and the residences of several tribes. They are worried that the lich's curse ability will harm the weaker demons and cubs.
After hearing the whole story, Warren nodded after thinking for a while, and couldn't help but regret bringing the little lich Tok with him - with his current ability, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone Tok. What if those two liches were really sent by the Lich Chief to silence them? Wouldn't that be like delivering a ticket to his door?
When he arrived at the military camp, Warren realized that he had completely overthought.
The two liches were controlled by Feiwu's magic and frightened by Arabella's magic fluctuations. They were completely unable to exert their strength and could only curse in frustration. However, they could not come up with anything new to curse. They kept repeating the same old clichés like "the devil is cruel". Hearing this, the demon soldiers next to them rolled up their sleeves and wanted to beat the liches up.
However, when Warren approached, the two liches suddenly stopped talking and looked straight at the lich Tok behind Warren.
After being fed by Warren for so long, Tok is no longer the skinny guy he used to be. His arms have gained flesh and he has grown a lot taller. When he stands up, his head is almost at Warren's shoulders. Except for the expressionless face hidden in the hood, he has become a handsome young lich boy.
However, the two liches recognized him almost instantly.
One of the liches suddenly had tears in his eyes: "Little Chief, you are still alive!"
The other lich didn't say anything, but his constantly rising and falling chest showed that he was in a restless mood.
Warren took a step forward, blocking Tok, and looked coldly at the two liches.
"What do you want to do in the Demon King's Palace? Tell the truth, or die."
The lich on the right blinked.
After seeing that the lich Tok was still alive, he was obviously much calmer than before. He looked up and saw the Demon King's crown worn by Warren, and immediately realized the identity of the big demon in front of him.
"The current leader of the Lich Tribe, Feko, said that the young leader was killed by you," he answered honestly, "We are here to find the young leader's body and avenge him."
The lich on the left was much more eager to survive than him, and added: "Now we know that Fei Ke lied to us. Don't worry, we will never commit suicide."
Warren looked at them suspiciously for a moment, but he still felt that it was not worth wasting the last chance to use [Psychic Illusion] on these two guys, so he simply turned his head to look at Tok: "Do you know them? Are these two guys on good terms with you?"
The little lich poked his head out and glanced at them coldly, then turned back quickly and continued to stare intently at the corner of the Demon King's clothes: "I don't know him."
Warren raised his eyebrows slightly, but before he could continue asking, he was interrupted by the crying of two liches.
He turned around and saw the two liches biting their hands in excitement, whimpering with tears in their eyes: "Little Chief, you can actually speak now!"
