Macht

In the 490th year of the Unified Kingdom, the Little Fool returned to the Demons territory once again as Solitär. Li Yan asked her to recruit Macht. As long as Macht was lured out of the Demon King's territory, her control and restraint collar was ready, a perfect item made of Anti-Magic Stone and top-level ancient magic array.

Little Fool's Log

In the first year after leaving the young master again, the Demons continued to attack the human defense zone as usual, but with Barrier Magic and the strongest magic troops of the human race stationed there, they were like lambs to the slaughter.

The year after I left the young master, I encountered an adorable little dragon in the Northern Border Zone. Its name was Imperial Prison Dragon, and it was said to be the strongest dragon among the Northern Plateau. I liked it very much, but it seemed to think I was an enemy and wanted to eat me. In order to protect myself, I had no choice but to kill it first.

Its skin was so tough that my Sword-Control Magic couldn't break through its defenses at all. It wanted to eat me whole, but I flew away and dodged. Its wings were huge, and it chased after me.

Waaah... Young Master, save me...

After three hours, I crawled out of Little Dragon's belly. It had eaten a lot of unhealthy things, which made my body smelly. I hate Little Dragon.

It's been three years since I left the young master. I miss Little Dragon. Its meat is still quite delicious. Although the skin is tough, I feel a bit stronger after eating Little Dragon's meat.

In the fourth year since I left the young master, I met Macht. He seems to be doing quite well lately, and his Mana power has increased significantly compared to before. His Diagoldze is truly amazing; he can turn anything he wants into gold. If Macht were to meet Little Dragon, he might be able to turn Little Dragon into gold in just a moment.

Five years after leaving the young master, Macht said he wanted to explore those Underground Labyrinths, perhaps because he had become somewhat interested in the Underground Labyrinth adventure stories I had told him before.

Years after leaving the young master, I met Frieren. Lady Frieren also saw me. She saw me with Macht, and she seemed very disappointed in me.

Lady Frieren was no match for Macht. In the blink of an eye, one of Frieren arms was turned to gold. If Macht hadn't been uninterested in Frieren might have been completely transformed into gold.

Lady Frieren ran away, so fast that even Macht didn't have time to react. Macht seemed uninterested in Frieren's escape, as if he didn't care about an ant that had suddenly fled.

I don't know how many years it has been since I left the young master. It seems to be about 21 years, or maybe 41 years, but it doesn't seem to matter. What matters is that Macht is willing to come with me to see the young master. My mission is accomplished!

Under the enchanting moonlight, Li Yan received a letter from the Little Fool Solitär. Macht wanted to understand humanity and agreed to meet with Li Yan, even though he didn't know who Li Yan was, only that Solitär was someone who could make him feel malice and guilt.

The agreed location was a forest in the Northern War Zone. Upon receiving the letter, Li Yan's lips curled into a slight smile. He had finally waited for his material upgrade machine. The eighth generation of the Mechanical Magic Puppet could finally appear. He had already prepared the sword that could cut through the gold of Macht. At that time, whether it was futuristic armor or various weapons, there would be no shortage of materials.

In the forest of the Northern War Zone, Macht sat expressionlessly on a rock, gazing at Solitär with the innocent smile of a little girl. He was puzzled; it was just a meeting, yet Solitär was already beaming with such a radiant smile. It seemed that the person in her heart had surpassed everyone else.

"Whoosh!"

A whooshing sound filled the sky as a young man walked on air, a faint smile on his handsome face, like a kind and approachable boy next door.

Macht raised his head and glanced at the young man. In that instant, he realized how terrifying the young man was. The man's Mana was very low, to a level that made people suspicious. After all, in an era before humans could fly, the fact that the man was flying in the air with such pitiful Mana was naturally a huge flaw.

"Human, you are very strong. I even have a feeling that I may not be your match."

Macht rose from the rock with the elegance of a Noble, his eyes fixed on Li Yan who was walking towards him. The other party deserved his respect; it was the respect that Demons showed to the strong, and Macht was no exception.

"Young Master, I've missed you so much."

Solitär crossed her fingers, her green eyes filled with surprise, like a woman seeing her husband who hadn't returned home in a long time. She ran over happily and hugged Li Yan's arm.

Seeing Solitär's unusual behavior, Macht's expression showed a hint of surprise. Based on his understanding of Solitär over the years, Solitär had never acted like this before. Even when facing humans, she would keep her distance. In her words, mere weak humans were not worth her attention.

"Good!"

Li Yan stroked Solitär's head; the soft touch was just right, and a stray tuft of hair was smoothly smoothed away.

"You must be Macht, the strongest of the Seven Sages of Destruction of the Demon King's Army."

Li Yan smiled faintly as she looked at Macht, who was staring at her with a calm expression.

"Yes! You are Li Yan? The Solitär told me about who could make me understand guilt and malice?"

Macht stared intently at Li Yan, his gaze unwavering in scrutiny. He acknowledged Li Yan's strength, but he had some doubts about whether Li Yan possessed the ability to make him understand malice and guilt.

"You want to understand malice and guilt? What a strange Demons. I can do it, but what can you give me? I can't help you for nothing."

Li Yan chuckled as he sat on a rock next to Macht. He wasn't afraid of Macht; after all, who would fear a lucky star who brought them endless materials?

"I'll do anything as long as I can understand malice and guilt."

Seeing Li Yan casually sit down in front of him, Macht also sat down.

"No matter how long it takes, no matter what happens, even if it means betraying the Demon King?"

Li Yan's lips curled up slightly. He could hardly contain his joy at the prospect of acquiring a permanent material manufacturing machine.

Macht paused for a moment, gazing at the star-studded night sky, before slowly speaking, "I have no sense of belonging to the Demon King. I hate war, and I yearn to coexist with humanity. Therefore, I want to understand humanity, to understand what malice is, and what guilt is."

Li Yan was slightly moved by Macht's heartfelt story. He knew Macht's ideals all too well, but as Demons, he found it very difficult to understand human feelings. Different values lead to different paths, and his own values were basically fixed and not so easy to change.
