Clang!
The big dining table full of food was noisy. The bear-like old man Bloan was gobbling up the meat as if he hadn't eaten for decades. He gobbled up the large plates of food like a hurricane.
Gulp! Gulp!
Eibron's jaw dropped to the ground. The man had eaten ten times as much as a normal person, and that was just too much for Eibron to handle.
"Ugh!"
With a loud burp, the heroic old man wiped his mouth with the white tablecloth.
"I'm full. If you have anything to say, say it quickly."
He didn't care about the Black Knight at all.
The Demon King had been quietly watching him from the side until now.
"Are you satisfied with the food?"
"To be honest, this is the best meal I've ever had. You're definitely not from this country. I've never tasted anything like this before."
Bloan glanced at the maid who was cleaning up the table. He could tell she wasn't from this country, so his eyes were filled with caution.
Small countries were always wary of foreigners, especially those small countries caught in the middle of big countries. They were like a lonely boat, always afraid of being swept away by the waves.
The Demon King snapped his fingers, and the food on the table disappeared without a trace.
"You may leave," he said to the maid.
He said to the maid. The maid nodded and quickly left the room. He then looked at Eibron, who was still sitting beside the Demon King like a loyal minister. It wasn't until he noticed the Demon King's gaze that he smiled uneasily and left with the guards.
"Now that it's just the two of us, why don't we be frank? I'll give you a chance to save your son."
"Haha! He doesn't need anyone to save him. Neither do I. Young man, you're underestimating us. "
Bloan laughed loudly.
The Demon King's expression didn't change as he looked at the somewhat boorish former general.
"I know what you're planning, Black Knight. Is that your name? To be honest, it's a little foolish. Your name will only attract those inexperienced youths and those love-struck women. But for someone with a brain, this is just a ridiculous fairy tale. "
Bloan leaned against the back of the bench. His body was too small to sit on a single stool. He stretched out his hands, giving off the feeling that he was the host.
"You controlled that softie Kingsley and used him to control this country because you didn't want to waste too many soldiers here. You wanted to use our people to deal with the Eagle Regiment, and all you needed to do was to lead your elite troops to create a legend of invincibility. In reality, you didn't even fight many battles. Only the Kalisians who were used were the ones who shed blood and sweat."
He smiled contemptuously and continued, "How sad. In the end, even if they destroy the Eagle Regiment, the credit will still go to the black knight, which is you. Am I right?"
"It's an interesting idea, but it's not entirely correct. Sir General, I'm not as good as you when it comes to war."
"Hmph! You don't have to be so sarcastic with me. I don't have your godly ability to command troops. "
He mocked.
What shocked him was that the other party's expression hadn't changed at all. Bloan couldn't tell what the other party was thinking, so he could only continue to provoke the other party.
"Give me a chance? I'm amused by your words. "
"You don't believe that Booth is still alive?"
"Of course I do. After all, the black knight came looking for me. This made me incomparably determined. What could make the invincible black knight come looking for an old man who's about to enter the earth? There's only one thing, and that's the Imperial General Booth. He's still alive. This is what you're most afraid of. You don't have to admit it to me, because if Booth is still alive and stands on the Eagle Regiment's side, you won't be able to make the Kalisian army obey you. You're right, the truth is far greater than this. Our general's appeal is stronger than the king's. You can give it a try. "
Bloan crossed his arms, expressing his attitude.
The Demon King sighed softly with a smile on his face, "That's a good analysis. If you were twenty years younger, perhaps I would've let you join me at all costs."
"Impossible outsider, never. You want me, a father, to deal with my son? I'm not that stupid. The same trick won't work on me." He furrowed his brows, his aura fierce.
"In other words, you also think that Booth will betray the Empire and join the Eagle Regiment?"
"Compared to handing over the Empire to an outsider, it's better to hand it over to the Eagle Regiment. At least they're Kalisians."
"Haha, is that so? If there's a chance, I'll pass it on to him, if he can still understand the human language."
The Demon King said with a smile.
"What do you mean!?"
Bloan asked excitedly, only to see the other party silently place his hand on the table. Suddenly, the table turned into a mirror, and an image appeared on it.
Magic! This guy also knows magic?
When he saw the image, his heart skipped a beat. It was a moving image, many humanoid monsters were fighting with the Kalisian army. What was even more surprising was that some Eagle Regiment soldiers wearing yellow military uniforms appeared behind those monsters.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, how could they have such … No! Could it be the Luyas Empire? "
Bloan revealed an expression of doubt as he looked at those monsters in a daze.
"Unfortunately, I'm not from the Dragon Boat Empire. I'm afraid the two empires didn't interfere. Right now, the situation is more serious than you think. Someone is causing a massacre here."
"What do you mean?"
The Demon King flicked his finger, and the image changed. Countless pits filled with corpses appeared on the image, which made Bloan, who had just eaten his fill, feel a little nauseous.
"This! This!! Which bastard did this!! "
He cursed and slammed the table, causing the image to crack.
Those were the civilians of the Kalisian Empire. They were all massacred, either in a village, a town, or even a city.
"I know you won't believe me, so I hope you can investigate it yourself. Maybe it's the Eagle Regiment, or maybe it's me. This is up to you to find out the truth. I just want to tell you that staying in prison and listening to rumors will not give you the real answer. Think carefully, General Bloan."
Hearing this, the Demon King stood up and seemed to be about to leave.
"Wait!"
Bloan shouted. His expression was very ugly at this time, he felt incomparably angry.
The current situation could no longer be described as civil strife. No matter what, such a massacre had occurred, which proved that some crazy people had joined the situation this time. If that person was allowed to take over the power, the entire Kalisian Empire would definitely be plunged into misery and suffering.
This was no longer as simple as his personal family matter.
"Take me away, I can still kill the enemy!"
He said with an angry expression.
