Cersei returned to her residence as quickly as she could.
The room of the Second Princess of the Demon World was more like a mini library than a place to sleep.
The long table made of unknown stone was covered with all kinds of maps. Some of them were hand-drawn maps of the Demon World, while others were maps of the human world.
Cersei found the end of the long table. On it were maps depicting the various kingdoms of the human world.
The information on the map was not detailed, but Cersei could still roughly see the distribution of the human countries.
Cersei quickly found the magic capital Noland in the center of the map. Going down from Noland, across the plains of Rosegel and the Strait of Farsight, she could see the country Cersei was looking for.
Falosi …
A country famous for its art?
The impression of Falosi in the book appeared in Cersei's mind. The country next to Falosi was the Nation of Steel.
However, she could not learn too much about this country from memory alone. Cersei went to the bookshelf beside her room and began to search for all information about Falosi.
The books on the bookshelf all came from the human world, and a few of them had descriptions related to Falosi.
"Never participated in the subjugation of the Demon World."
Cersei glanced at the geographical location of Falosi on the map. The only entrance to the Demon World and the human world was in the endless snow plains of the Land of Frost, and Falosi was several kingdoms away from the Land of Frost. It would be very difficult for them to enter the Demon World.
Thinking of this, Cersei pulled up the news from the Magic Net. The Prophet would tell her about the day's events through a message every day.
A part of it included everything that Josiah had done.
From the Prophet's feedback, Cersei knew that Josiah had always been in close contact with the nobles of Falosi.
This time, he had asked Falosi to send a delegation to the Demon World to visit.
Cersei opened the message that Josiah had just sent her. The first thought that came to her mind was … Her brother had done it!
This was the first time in hundreds of years that a human country had sent a delegation to visit the Demon World!
But … he had chosen the worst possible timing.
Cersei closed the Weave message and headed towards the depths of the city.
Soon, she arrived at the altar where the true ruler of the Devil Realm was located.
The door to the altar was tightly shut. Cersei's hand touched the steel door, and just as she was about to push it open, a sound came from behind the door.
"Is that Cersei?"
"Yes, father."
Cersei retracted her hand and half-knelt before the door.
A few months ago, the ruler of the Demon World, Notlane, had locked himself in the altar. Cersei had wanted to enter the altar several times to check on her father's physical condition, but she had been refused.
This made Cerashley feel more and more uneasy.
"What business do you have with me today?" A voice came from behind the door.
"It's for Qiao …" Cersei paused. She looked up at the closed door and changed what she wanted to say. "Fuya's birthday is coming soon. Father, I think we should celebrate."
"Shouldn't the little girl's birthday be in three months? I know what you're worried about, Cersei. There have been some changes in the altar recently, and I have to make it return to normal. "
The voice behind the door sounded very cheerful. After Cersei heard it, she lowered her head in relief.
This voice was definitely not someone else's. Her father was indeed behind the door.
"Now, Cersei, you can tell me why you're here."
"It's for Josiah. I told you that Josiah has been staying in the human city of Noland for the past six months," Cersei said.
"That child, Josiah, seems to have been acknowledged by the humans of Noland. This is a bit like your mother."
"My mother?"
Cersei froze for a moment when she heard this word. She had no memories of her mother since she was young, and Cersei was sensible enough not to ask where her mother had gone.
Now that he suddenly mentioned it, although Cersei really wanted to ask about her mother, she held back. Now, she had more important things to discuss with the ruler.
"Did Josiah encounter any danger in Noland?" Nortline then asked about something he was worried about.
"His development in Noland is going smoothly." Cersei recalled the many things about Josiah that the Prophet had said in the message. It could no longer be described as smooth!
Cersei felt that if Josiah was given a little more time, perhaps Josiah could become the first demon in history to stand at the peak of power in Noland.
"Also … Josiah also invited an emissary group from Falosi. They hope to visit the Demon World," Cersei said.
"An emissary group from Falosi … What's their purpose in coming to the Demon World?"
Cersei opened the interface of the Magic Net and clicked on the message from Josiah. The content of the message described in detail why the Falosi had come to the Demon World.
In fact, Cersei really wanted to tell her father that the Falosi emissary group had come with good intentions and hoped to form an alliance with the Demon World.
But in fact …
"They're here to produce a show called a movie, and …" Cersei glanced at the last part of the note.
"And what?"
Under the questioning of the ruler of the Demon World, Cersei could only tell him the true purpose of these Falosi people coming to the Demon World.
"And they're here to travel to the Demon World to enjoy the scenery of the Demon World. It's said that some noble ladies have a unique hobby for sinful demons."
Cersei glanced at the note at the end of the message and read it out loud.
At first, when Cersei saw this note, she really could not understand what those humans were thinking!
If it was a human male liking a succubus, Cersei could still understand, but what was with a noble lady liking sinful demons?
Sinful demons were the vanguard of the Demon World's army, one of the strongest warriors. Their sharp claws were enough to tear countless weak human spellcasters to pieces.
Were all the human ladies' hobbies so 'violent' and 'bloody'?
No matter what, Cersei lowered her head. The reason for the visit of the Falosi emissary group was too ridiculous.
But there was laughter behind the door, very happy laughter.
"Travel! I didn't expect that child to really do it and change the humans' view of the Demon World. "
Was this an agreement? The visit of the Falosi emissary group.
"But father, many of our people's views on humans have not changed, and it's a critical time now. The Land of Frost and the army of the Kingdom of Saint have started a war at the border fortress, and the capital has been affected by the plague of ashes. I'm afraid the capital can't receive the Falosi emissary group now." Cersei spoke of her worries.
"Can the watchers guarantee the safety of the Falosi when they 'travel' in the Demon World?" Notraine asked.
"No problem at all."
Cersei answered almost without thinking. She had absolute confidence in the watchers she was in charge of.
"Then open the gates and welcome the Falosi! Bring them to see the shimmering lake in the territory of the Water Elemental Lord. The dazzling Demonic World Flower there is indeed a good scenery, as well as the haze of the Blood Duke. The territories of the Skeletal Duke and the Black Dragon are too exciting for the humans, but we can also bring them to the border of the Lava Mountains of the Black Dragon. "
Cersei quietly listened to the ruler of the Demon World. He seemed to have turned into a passionate tour guide at this time.
But the places he mentioned could be said to be absolute death zones for humans.
"Yes."
Even though Cersei knew that humans would never like places like the Lava Mountains, Notren still reminded Cersei of this.
The Demon World was by no means a barren place. There were also countless magnificent scenery here.
"Clean that abandoned embassy again. It was built by your mother, and it hasn't been used for decades …" Notraine's voice suddenly disappeared when he said this, replaced by violent coughing.
"Father." When Cersei heard the coughing behind the door, the uneasiness in her heart seemed to be confirmed. "Are you alright?"
"Carry out your mission, Cersei. This is an order."
This time, the voice behind the door sounded a little weak.
"I … understand." Cersei stood up and walked out of the altar. Before leaving, she looked at the tightly shut door, and finally gritted her teeth and chose to leave.
… …
Noland, Hearthstone Tavern.
"Hiri, don't you have any luggage? This is a long trip. "
Josiah was tidying up his suitcase, putting some clothes that needed to be changed, cameras, VCRs, and other miscellaneous things in it.
"These are enough for me."
Hiri patted the satchel at her waist, which contained paper for drawing and some alchemy potions.
Although Hiri had lived in Noland for a long time, Josiah did not forget that she was also a veteran wilderness survival expert. Usually, she was the type who wielded a staff and fought bear-like creatures head-on.
"Your eyes seem to be saying 'this girl doesn't even change her clothes'." Hiri seemed to read Josiah's mind. She took out a handkerchief from somewhere, and then a light blue inscription appeared in her hand.
The crystalline liquid was like a snake circling around the handkerchief, and the handkerchief instantly became as clean as before.
"My sister taught me the 'Cleanse' spell of the Flowing Water and Healing System Inscription. It's a little trick that any spellcaster knows."
"Magic … is really a convenient thing."
Josiah stuffed all the things in his hand into his suitcase. This suitcase was also inscribed with special magic inscriptions, making it look like it could hold more things than it looked on the surface.
"We're going to Falosi this time?"
Hiri sat on the bed alone, swinging her legs. This was Josiah's room, and everything around it had been cleaned up.
"To be precise, we'll go to Falosi first, then return to the Demon Realm."
Josiah repeated the itinerary of this trip to Hiri again.
"However, after finishing the filming of 'Avatar', I will still choose to settle down in Noland," Josiah said.
"Will you meet your family when you go to the Demon Realm?" Hiri suddenly asked.
"The one you'll most likely meet is my sister, Cersei. She has a neutral attitude towards humans, and won't draw her sword and kill you the moment she sees you."
Josiah had just received a message from Cersei. Cersei had agreed to the Falosi emissary's visit to the Demon Realm, and also said that she would arrange a place for them to stay.
Just this message was enough to show that his elder sister's attitude towards humans had changed from neutral to friendly.
"I feel that the reason she wants to kill me isn't just because I'm a human."
"So, Miss Hiri, do you want to back out?"
"No, I still have some confidence in my ability to escape." Ciri said, patting his barren chest.
"This isn't an ability worth showing off …"
Josiah picked up his suitcase and opened the door to the Hearthstone Tavern. Ino had also been waiting outside for a long time with a large suitcase. This succubus was determined to follow Josiah back to the Demon Realm.
Perhaps it was because he was homesick or some other reason, but in any case, Josiah agreed to Ino's request.
