The hail was getting heavier and heavier. Hayashi hurriedly drove back to the hotel with Tamamo and Esmaria. She stood in the restaurant and looked out.
"There's something wrong with this hail."
Seeing the hail in front of her, Hayashi could not help but frown. She had already noticed that there was something wrong with the hail. First of all, the hail was red, and this was the first time she had seen red hail in her life.
Second, the speed of the hail was far faster than ordinary hail. Hayashi had thought that the hail was like meteorite fragments, but in fact, it was more or less the same. Unlike ordinary hailstones that fell directly after forming, these hailstones felt like small cannonballs falling from the sky and hitting the ground. Even the cement floor in front of him was battered and tattered.
Many people didn't have time to escape and were directly hit on the head by the hail, and then they fell unconscious on the spot. Needless to say, if no one dragged them to a shelter, then they would be killed by the hail.
In fact, even if they were dragged to a shelter, they would not survive for long. No matter who it was, they would be lucky if they did not explode after being hit in the head by a cannonball …
No matter how she looked at it, this obviously did not look like a normal natural disaster. But since the United States was the unlucky one, Hayashi was naturally not in the mood to care too much. Now, she only needed to wait for the hail to subside, then take her own plane and leave the United States for Portugal.
However, at this moment, a deep voice suddenly rang out from behind Zhui.
"Of course this isn't ordinary hail."
Hearing the voice, Hayashi raised her eyebrows and turned around. Behind her, deep in the restaurant, a middle-aged gentleman in a suit and a top hat was standing there, staring at her. Seeing Hayashi turn around, he took off the hat on his head and bowed respectfully.
"Hello, Demon Lord of the East. I've heard a lot about you."
"Looks like you know who I am."
Hayashi was not surprised by the other party's reaction. The world of demons was like a mafia. The slightest movement would spread like wildfire. She had killed the Demon Eye King of the Three-Eyed Race and captured all the demons loyal to him in one fell swoop. Now, she had basically become the leader of the Japanese demon world. This was equivalent to the Yamaguchi-gumi getting rid of their competitors and unifying the Japanese underworld. Even if it didn't affect the Victor family in the United States, they would still hear about the underworld.
"But I still don't know who you are."
"My name is Depor. I come from the Demon Realm and am a Duke."
Facing Dusk's question, the Devil named Deaver lowered his stance.
"I came to find you this time because I have something to ask of you."
"I'm not interested in trouble in the United States."
After finding Esmalia, he lost interest in staying in America. The taste of American food was mediocre. Even the food from Chinese restaurants was not authentic. Not to mention the fact that she was running around and eating fast food from the United States. She had long been tired of eating these things.
To put it bluntly, she would rather go back to Tokyo and eat hamburgers.
As for the United States, even if the sky was turned upside down..... what did it have to do with her?
"Once the hail is over, I plan to leave this place. Hmm, you'd better not waste your time."
The Demon Realm Duke didn't seem surprised by Dusk's refusal. He raised his head slightly and glanced at Esmalia.
"But what if I say that this matter is related to the young lady beside you?"
"… … Hmm?"
Dusk was taken aback. She narrowed her eyes and sized up the Demon Realm Duke in front of her.
"Don't tell me that guy was sent by you."
"… … You can say that."
"So you plan to snatch her back?"
Dusk smiled and looked at the Demon Realm Duke in front of her. Although her words didn't contain the slightest bit of anger, Dusk felt as if the temperature of the entire restaurant had dropped a lot at that moment. However, Duke Deaver wasn't afraid in the face of Dusk's reply. He silently gestured.
"Actually, it's a long story. I wonder if you can come inside and tell me about it?"
"… … Okay."
Dusk fell silent for a moment and looked at Esmalia, who was looking at her anxiously. Dusk reached out her hand with a smile and gently stroked her cheek. She then turned to look at the Demon Realm Duke in front of her.
"I'd like to hear what you have to say."
At this moment, the hotel was also in a mess, but it had nothing to do with Dusk and the others. Led by Duke Dever, they came to a private room and sat down. Then the waiter served them coffee and tea, and they left. Dusk silently sipped her coffee and stared at Duke Deaver in front of her.
"Well, what do you want to say?"
"In fact, I hope you can help us deal with someone."
Speaking until here, Duke Defoe's expression became serious.
"Sinner Ian."
"Never heard of him."
"He committed a serious crime in the Demon Realm. After that, he left the Demon Realm and came to the human world. I came here to track him down … … "
"It has nothing to do with me."
Dusk shook her head again.
"I only care about one thing."
"Don't worry, that's what I'm going to say next."
Duke Deaver looked at Esmalia again. Esmalia grabbed the corner of Dusk's clothes uneasily. Duke Deaver looked at her for a moment, then retracted his gaze.
"I think you might not know who this young lady is."
"Well, from what you said, she shouldn't be an ordinary person."
Dusk was not a fool. Since the other party had made it so clear, if she said that Esmalia was an ordinary person — — Oh, the protagonists in harem anime seemed to like to say that.
"Of course."
Duke Deaver nodded vigorously.
"To tell you the truth, this lady is actually an emissary of God, an agent on earth who uses God's power in the human world."
"… …!"
Esmalia's hand that was holding the corner of Dusk's clothes began to tremble slightly. Dusk just raised her eyebrows and responded indifferently.
"Oh."
"… … Aren't you surprised?"
Duke Deaver was a little surprised by Dusk's indifferent reaction.
"I just don't care. East Asia's faith is different from yours, and I don't care about that God."
The laws of the United States have no jurisdiction over China. No matter how powerful your God is, what does it have to do with me? If you dare to come looking for trouble with me, I'll smash heaven to pieces.
After all, Diablo's soul stone is still in Fangzheng's hands. He just hasn't found a chance to use it. If God dares to come looking for trouble, I'll directly release Diablo and kill my way to heaven. I don't believe you can find a Nephalem to come here!
Dusk put down the coffee cup in her hand.
"So?"
"According to the information I received, Ian is looking for and collecting agents on earth."
"I see."
Dusk immediately understood. After all, this was a common plot in various games, animations, and movies.
"In other words, that bastard named Ian is planning to use the agent on earth to do something, and now you want to find Ian, so you captured this agent and plan to use her as bait to lure Ian out?"
"Just as you said, but it was just an accident at first. He only attacked the agent on earth to fulfill his contract with his master. When I heard the news, that guy had already been destroyed by you, and the agent on earth was also taken away by you. I originally planned to chase after her and take her away, but … "
"You saw me here, so you changed your mind."
"That's right."
Duke Defoe nodded slightly and stretched out his hand.
"Then, would you like to cooperate with me? Ian won't give up until he achieves his goal. I'm sure that he has his eyes on the lady beside you. Even if you refuse to cooperate with me, I believe that one day in the future, Ian will still become a problem for you. "
"Well said."
Dusk looked at Duke Defoe's outstretched hand, but she did not shake it.
"But please tell me, why should I trust a demon? Especially a Duke Fiend? Even if what you said is true, it doesn't mean that it's not a lie or a trap. As for that guy named Ian … "
Dusk frowned. The name sounded familiar, but she could not remember where she had heard it before.
"It's fine if he doesn't appear in front of me, but if he does, I'll tear him to pieces."
"Of course, I can understand your vigilance against a demon."
Duke Defoe smiled and retracted his hand.
"But I can prove my sincerity … In fact, I'm not only asking for your help, but I'm also planning to communicate with the Makedala Monastery. I hope they can join us."
"The Makedala Monastery?"
"Of course. In fact, there's also a very important person to Ian there … Perhaps she's the key to defeating Ian."
Duke Defoe stood up and bowed gracefully to Dusk.
"I'll go and talk to them. Although they're believers of God, I think we still have something in common. Can you give me a chance?"
"…"
Dusk was silent in the face of Duke Defoe's question. She stared at the coffee cup in front of her. After a while, she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and made a call. Then, she frowned slightly. She put down her mobile phone and looked at Duke Defoe.
"I'll give you a week."
Finally, she spoke.
"If you can convince the Makedala Monastery within a week, then I think we still have a basis for cooperation."
"Of course."
Hearing Dusk's answer, Defoe smiled. He reached out his hand, pulled a strand of beard from his chin, and gently blew it away.
"Don't worry, it won't be a problem."
