Large areas of the city were destroyed, and this sudden battle caused panic throughout the city. The Empire's army quickly rushed to the scene, but the group of monsters had already left.
The rescue team found less than ten people alive in the basement, and more than five hundred adventurers died. This matter attracted the attention of the higher-ups of the Guild. This time, the Adventurer's Guild took full responsibility, and the Adventurer's Guild paid a large sum of money to the Empire for this matter to be settled.
The Demon King, Richard, and Sieg were also questioned. In the end, in order to appease the residents, the Empire hid the matter of the underground monsters and made it public as a magical explosion case. Therefore, the Demon King was not treated as a hero.
Of course, he was not a hero. However, the Empire threw an olive branch to him and proposed very tempting conditions. Of course, the Demon King rejected their invitation.
The Guild quickly sent a group of people over to help, and in a few days, the Guild began to rebuild the Guild. At the same time, the city began to operate normally. The rubble on the streets and the damaged public facilities were all funded by the Guild.
In short, this matter passed. Only a few people knew about the Queen Mother, and some of the Empire's higher-ups and the Guild's higher-ups.
They did not seem willing to let the citizens fall into panic. If they knew that even this place, which was the furthest from the war, was attacked, they would probably be in despair.
The iron door opened, and the Demon King, Richard, walked out of the room. He stretched. This was the Empire's battle fortress, and now it was temporarily lent to the Guild as a stronghold. He held a few pieces of parchment in his hand. These were the documents signed by the Guild, and they were also the things he needed to walk in the human territory.
"Master, Master."
At this time, a little girl wearing boy's clothes was waiting for him outside the door. When she saw him come out, she ran over and greeted him with a smile.
She held a yellow cat in her hands, and the cat's face was full of helplessness.
"Master, can I keep this cat? It has been following me, and I feel that it's so pitiful …"
Reina looked at the Demon King pitifully.
The Demon King could not help but laugh. He wondered what kind of expression she would have if she knew the cat's true identity.
"Since you did well this time, I'll make an exception and agree."
He said with a smirk. Kitten showed an even more helpless expression.
"Thank you, Master!"
She bounced happily with the kitten in her arms.
At this time, Reina suddenly thought of something. She turned around and said to the Demon King, "By the way, Master, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"That's right, that …"
So that was the case. She wanted him to take Kite as his disciple.
After hearing Reina's words, the Demon King was speechless.
How could he, the Demon King, Richard, accept a disciple so easily? One had to know that being his disciple was a very lucky thing.
"Let's talk about this in a few days."
The Demon King said in annoyance.
…
The capital of the Sirou Empire, Biroyas, was especially lively today. The streets were filled with people, and each of them held a bouquet of flowers. A group of people riding on white horses walked in the middle of the street. They walked neatly in the front, and behind them was a luxurious carriage. The carriage was pulled by a unicorn, and there were five adventurers wearing red capes standing on it.
That's right, they were the famous adventurer team, the Polar Bears, and the Demon King's clone, Lin Chade.
They had already passed by, and the citizens threw them fresh flowers. Such a spectacular scene was not a festival, but a small victory. The Trade Union had taken back the Tear of God from the Demon King's Army, and had also brought back a figure similar to the Hero.
That's right, he was today's main character, the Demon King's clone, Lin Chade.
At this time, the nobles who were elegantly tasting wine on the balcony were watching this grand welcome party. A gorgeous noblewoman held a wine glass and looked at the slowly advancing army with interest.
Even though she was a beauty, she gave people a feeling that she was not to be trifled with. This was probably because of her pair of sharp dark purple eyes. Strangely, she was not like the other nobles who were covered in jewelry. She was clean and did not wear any jewelry.
"Is he the hero of the so-called Home of the Sage? Why does he look like a wild boy?"
She said with a faint smile. Sitting in front of her was a burly man wearing the Empire's uniform. His hat was on the table, and there were three stars on it.
He was the three-star general of the Sirou Empire, Andrew Ironhowl, nicknamed the Black King Kong. The beautiful noblewoman sitting in front of him was Manny Sloc, a woman who was known as a genius mage. She joined the army at the age of fourteen and made various achievements. She was now one of the seven great mages of the Empire.
"I hope he's as powerful as reported, and not a clown," Andrew said calmly.
"Why don't you go and test it out yourself?" Manny said.
"You think I don't want to? Hmph!" Andrew suddenly flew into a rage. His thick black eyebrows almost reached the sky. His anger immediately caused a tremor, and the wine bottles and glasses on the table immediately shattered.
Suddenly, it was as if time had stopped. The broken wine bottle and the flying wine froze in place.
"Hehe, be careful. The wine is spilling."
Manny stretched out her index finger and turned it in a circle. The shattered wine bottles were restored to their original state.
"I'm just angry. How can any random thing be used on a hero? Are heroes so cheap now?" he said angrily.
"Don't be so angry. Let's see what the Saintess has to say."
…
The Church of the Holy Saints was the largest church in the human world. It was a colossus that was five hundred meters tall and had been standing for more than a thousand years.
The moment they entered the church, the surroundings immediately quieted down. The five people who were walking on the street full of cheers felt a little uncomfortable.
"Just follow us when we meet the Saintess."
Lilith said softly to the Demon King.
The Demon King didn't reply. Two rows of people in red robes raised their chins and looked at them.
The old believer led the five people to a huge statue. The statue held a book in its left hand and a sword in its right hand. Its head was raised and its eyes were closed. No one knew what it meant.
The Demon King wasn't interested in knowing. It was just a toy that the humans made.
At this moment, a woman in white was kneeling in front of the statue. Behind the statue's head was a huge piece of red glass. It was like the sun, and a beam of light shone through the glass onto the Saintess. The surroundings were huge and exquisite marble pillars, the white floor engraved with patterns, and the humanoid statues with bird wings. This combination made people feel a sense of holiness.
It was so holy.
The Demon King couldn't help but admire the humans' imagination. Why don't he make a Demon King Shrine just like this and replace the statue with himself? Then he could hide and look at the people praying to him.
Heh, it felt quite fun.
Just as the Demon King was giggling, the Saintess slowly stood up. Her actions gave people a feeling of nobility and elegance.
The Demon King didn't know why she put a cloth in front of his eyes. Although it was quite beautiful, it was still very strange. Was she blind?
She walked towards the crowd.
"Shh, shh, shh."
At this moment, Lilith, who was next to the Demon King, was sweating. She reminded him softly and even touched the Demon King's foot.
Only then did the Infernal King realize that Lilith and the others were already kneeling on one knee. He was the only one standing.
