A human?
The four exchanged glances with each other.
"It's a human."
Lilith did not speak. Instead, her voice was transmitted directly into their minds.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? If any of your words are false, don't blame my snake for being merciless. "Theodore glared at the man.
"My name is Richard. Erm, Lin Chade. I'm here to study a type of sandworm that can devour mana. Have you seen them?" The man replied. Yes, he was the Demon King's clone.
Sandworm that can devour mana?
Lilith's expression darkened.
"You mean the Abyssal Reaper? That's a terrifying monster that only exists in the Desert of Death. Why would it be here?"
Murderous auras radiated from the four.
Oh, not bad.
The Demon King praised in his mind.
If he wasn't strong enough, he could've been a substitute in the Hero Squad.
"Hey, we're talking to you!"
Swordsman Greer shouted.
"Fine. I'll tell you. I'm here to look for treasures. This is the home of mages, so I should've left some powerful spells behind. That's why I'm here," the Demon King explained.
The four looked at each other again. They could not tell whether the man was lying or not from his expression. After all, he was an old fox that had lived for almost a thousand years.
"What do we do?"
Auror asked as he stood in front of Lilith.
He did not have any magic aura. His mana was not outstanding. He should not be a mage. But he doesn't have a weapon on him. Being able to come to this place alone means that he's not a simple person, or he didn't come alone. No matter what, I'll let him sleep first.
Lilith's voice was transmitted to the minds of the other three. Well, there was one more person who heard it. How could the Demon King not see through their little tricks?
Lilith chanted a few incantations and pointed her wand at the Demon King. Suddenly, his eyes rolled back and he fell to the ground.
"He won't wake up for an hour. Let's get to work. Dodoro, expand the perimeter," Lilith commanded.
"No problem." After the elf Theodore finished speaking, he half-knelt on the ground and drew a circle. Then, he pressed his hand on the circle, and several elves in the shape of light balls of various colors gathered from all directions.
"Please, keep an eye on the surroundings."
She ordered Bright, and the elves scattered and disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, Lilith took off her robe and took out a silver potion from the small pouch full of potions at her waist.
"Last words!"
After chanting a few incantations, the potion in her hand suddenly emitted a red light and turned into a cloud of smoke.
The fog slowly condensed into a human face, a ferocious face.
"Leave now! Get out of here! Quick! "
Its voice did not sound like the voice of a living creature. It had the hoarseness of metal and was very ear-piercing.
"What is this?!" Oro covered his ears and shouted.
"This is the Death Fog. It can allow the remnant thoughts of the dead to attach themselves to the magic carrier. However, it is very unstable and can disappear at any time." After Lilith explained, she pointed at the fog with her staff.
"Tell me where the Tear of God is!"
"Ahhhhh!!!"
The smoke suddenly screamed as if it were about to disperse at any moment. It kept darting left and right, but Lilith forcibly controlled it.
"Why is this happening?"
Oro asked in confusion.
"The remnant thoughts don't retain all the memories of the dead. This is what happens when there is an unanswered question."
She then asked, "Is the Tear of God in this well?"
"Ahhh!! I!! I can't tell you!!! "
The smoke screamed as if it was in great pain.
"Why can't you tell me? Tell me how to open this well! "
Seeing that the smoke was starting to disperse, Lilith raised her staff and increased the power of her spell.
"Ahhhh!! The seal can only be opened at noon with the power of the Sun God!! "
"Bang!!"
After a loud noise, the smoke dispersed, and the surroundings were filled with buzzing noises.
"Cough, cough, cough! I hate this spell. "
Oro coughed as he spoke.
Lilith ignored him and began to think about the undead's words.
Noon? The power of the Sun God? What does the power of the Sun God mean? Is it a fire spell?
No, that's not right. That's too simple. Moreover, why is it noon?
"Lilith!"
Dodoro suddenly shouted.
"Leave me alone. I'm thinking."
"He's awake."
Dodoro continued.
"What?!"
Lilith turned around abruptly and found that the person who had been affected by her drowsiness spell had actually gotten up.
"Hey, I heard a loud noise just now, and then I woke up. No, how did I fall asleep just now?" The Demon King pretended to be confused and asked.
Lilith frowned. She was very confident in her spells and would never fail. Why did he wake up so quickly?
Was it because of the smoke?
That was possible.
"What should we do? Should we tie him up? "
Oro stepped forward.
"Wait, I'm not a bad guy! If you don't want me, I can leave. "
She had to wait. She couldn't let him leave just in case he had an accomplice.
"Hey, guys! I found a place to sleep tonight. Oh, he's awake? "Greer, who was looking for a place to stay, came back.
"Just in time, Greer. Use your magic handcuffs to cuff him," Lilith said.
"Wait! Wait, what are you doing? "The Demon King pretended to be panicked.
"Don't worry. As long as you don't do anything dangerous, we'll let you go." Dodoro walked to the Demon King and cuffed his hands.
"Sorry, buddy. Looks like you won't be able to scratch your back for the next few days." Greer cuffed the Demon King.
"That's all for today. I'm going to set up a barrier." Lilith walked away with her staff.
"Alright, I'll go get some firewood," Greer said.
"I'll go get something to eat." Dodoro rolled his eyes at Oro and went into the forest.
"Ugh, I'll go get some firewood too."
"Stay here and watch him!" Lilith suddenly turned around and said.
Oro sighed and glanced at the Demon King, who was standing beside him and smiling at him the entire time.
"Alright, I'll take care of whatever you don't want to do. I'm used to it. Come with me and don't even think about running away. My fifty-pound sword can't tell friend from foe." Oro sighed and said to the Demon King.
…
See? How can I be bored?
The Demon King, who was sleeping on the grass, woke up. He moved the leaves away from his face and yawned at the setting sun.
* Crack! *
An explosion came from not far away.
"Hiss!"
Lena was still practicing. At this moment, she was surrounded by a small mountain of broken leaves.
