"We should invite him here." Chinulius said - his attitude was just right from top to bottom, and he powerfully carved out his own existence in the dark realm of the Demon of Demons. He doesn't mind letting any creature die miserably in front of him, and has already gone through his own miserable death. This constitutes the confidence of a demon king, making everyone either convinced or too angry to speak out.
That's it. The Demon King of Vega only said this, neither asking for opinions nor attaching any reasons, nor did he say who the "he" he wanted to invite was.
But Nesis and Icha completely understood.
"Ah. It seems that besides you wanting to talk to him on a whim, he also wants to talk to you on a whim." The Omniscient Eye quickly glanced in that direction. "What a voyage of knowledge. I can't believe I made myself arrive early. This has never happened before."
He said in an uncertain tone, turning back and forcing a smile at Yi Cha. "I avoided it first. Come and negotiate with Chinulus. You don't need me, and you won't miss anything. I'm going back. Come back when you are ready to leave."
He really just left. Icha did not stop Nesis and watched him leave.
Once again, reasonably good results were obtained. It is necessary to understand the world under the test of Nesis, and it is important to solve the mysteries of Lanlewin, the Featherless One, and Rimuganger. But understanding Nesis is equally important. If he really had a wrench that could turn a screw, he would have to know the details of its size and strength.
What matters is whether he is the wrench that turns the screw.
It seems strange not to have 100% trust in the most omniscient being in the world. However, Yi Cha has no intention of reviewing this.
The omniscient eye floated away in a very graceful and calm manner, almost successfully concealing the reason why he wanted to do this: he was still too weak and was afraid of being harmed by the Vega Demon King or the Demon Queen.
The golden light was so dim that it was almost invisible. Yi Cha turned his head and looked in the direction of the meeting. Today should have ended long ago.
A road about several feet thick and paved with insect shells stretched out from the darkness at some point, one end resting on the stone pillar where he was, emitting a dim light.
He stepped onto the lofty road and slid down. Shadows brushed against his ears.
Soon, Beelzebub's faint hum emerged from it.
"Oh! My dear! You are willing to come to this meeting!" she said cheerfully. "You miss me so quickly? How do you want everyone to listen to your lesson? Hang on a hook or hang up ?」
"What new bad idea have you brought, my dear Om?" she continued.
About fifteen seconds later, Yi Cha entered an area of almost pure darkness. Now he could see many small floating red eyes. They formed a flat column not far away, like a circle of chairs with several small monitors assigned behind each. This may well be the case.
The red eyes gave way. Yi Cha cheered up and stepped forward to insert himself.
Darkness surrounded him snugly. The soul energy in the darkness gently tears at the skin, like a group of blood-sucking bugs on the body. There was no doubt that he was already in one of those seats.
Attending this meeting was a foregone conclusion, a deviation from his intended plans, albeit not much. The chances of communication with Chinulius became greater, but more troublesome.
"Dear?" Beelzebub persisted, "Why don't you speak? Have you been listening? Do you have any suggestions?"
No suggestions.
He had not prepared any official remarks. If he had to say something, he would say——
"He will advise everyone to sit down in a comfortable position." Chinulus's voice sounded again, "Duke Chaint has always been so kind-hearted."
This sentence did not elicit any response, just because the two demon kings were here, and no one dared to make a sound without an order. But any demon knows that this is a very typical insult.
But it’s also an opportunity for a private conversation…
"If he wants you to sit down, you will sit down," Beelzebub said before Icha could speak. Her tone turned extremely testy in the blink of an eye. Tight in the dark
Then there were more than a dozen heavy muffled sounds, most of which were the sounds of flesh colliding with solid objects. It was obvious that the Demon Queen was acting resolutely and was letting everyone have close contact with the chair.
Not all demons can easily regard this position as a rest, and the impact is occasionally mixed with two painful groans.
Icha raised his original hand, "My devil. In fact, I wish it was a little brighter here."
"I've never heard such a request!" Beelzebub said in surprise. But she quickly smiled and said, "No problem. Honey."
Darkness halved in intensity - or more like reduced in volume? In the shadows, many hills composed of insect nets, insect shells and broken wings emerged. The bodies of the military generals whom Icha was not familiar with were embedded in a hill in various strange postures. From a certain angle, they were indeed sitting down.
Glancing down, he found himself sitting in a recess at the top of a mountain of insects.
The only other person who was not buried in the mountain was Chinulius. Roughly five times larger than the other demons, he sits majestically on a mountain - even so, he is much smaller than when first seen.
wrong. There is one demon not buried in this weird seat. It's Aurelue. Yi Cha was very sure that her neck was not buried in the magic insect fragments, but was broken all together. Her head was placed at the tip of the "seat" closest to Chinulus.
Her face was pale, and the upper half of her face without eyes was carved with two bloody circles, like two crappy eyes staring straight at this side.
"Yes. I will give Duke Aurel a small punishment." Beelzebub noticed his gaze and smiled slowly, "I wonder if you are satisfied or not, my dear? She is my advisor after all. So I don’t want to eat her for the time being. If you want me to plant insect eggs in her or throw her into a pool of flesh and blood, I will satisfy your request."
"No! No!!! Please spare me!!!!"
Aurelu's head screamed. If she had a body, she would do more. Several gloating glances were cast on her—on her head. Everyone knew exactly what was going on. It doesn't really matter if you don't have a body or have two extra eyes. But when the Demon of All Demons said these words, she really suffered. For Beelzebub, the "opportunity to plead" was just an opportunity for further torture, the beginning of execution.
Regardless of whether other demons plead for mercy or not, Aurilu will suffer the same fate - the only difference lies in Beelzebub's mood.
This incident once again deviated from the planned plan.
Yi Cha thought for half a second. Today should have ended long ago.
"I'm afraid Duke Aurellu has a more practical use." Then he said quickly, "A biologist I know is preparing to carry out a series of demon hybrid experiments. The purpose is to achieve stability in an extremely changing environment. A new species. He just needs such a standard skull sample."
In most cases, Beelzebub couldn't listen to such rhetoric at all. But when Chinurius heard the word "new species" and snorted contemptuously, the result was counterproductive.
"The change... is extremely drastic?"
Beelzebub paused for a moment, then changed into a delicate and smooth tone, "That's the Forest of All Things." She laughed hummingly, "My servants." She let all the voices resonate together, "It's really too It’s perfect! My dear Yi Chaint is already making wonderful plans for our future! Who can’t say that we are perfect partners? The world will be at our feet!”
All the demons present looked at Icha, including Aurelu's surprised and suspicious eyes. This time I didn’t look at anyone else’s.
"Besides soul sublimation, we seem to have a worse choice. Chinulius." The laughter subsided, Beelzebub's voice concentrated, and he summed up the Demon King of Vega arrogantly.
