"This is our target this time, Kitty Egg Roll. Actually, he doesn't have many guards around him. After all, this guy is someone who worships absolute power. What you need to do is to stand guard at the location I marked and block anyone who might be unlucky enough to appear in your field of vision."

While explaining things to Wis'adel and the others, Su Rui was also passing the time. He was about to take his phone out of his pocket when he was suddenly pulled into a soft embrace by a pair of arms reaching out from beside him.

Feeling the warmth and softness enveloping her cheeks, Su Rui paused for a moment, then realized that this didn't seem to be Theresa.

Scanning Vision revealed it to be Wis'adel, but just as Su Rui was about to use Wis'adel's headphones to communicate with her, she heard Wis'adel's voice:

"Alright, while everyone's looking at the mission briefing, don't move around. Don't you think this is interesting?"

"..." But I didn't actually show Theresa any images, so her Tactical Visor weren't activated, which means Theresa could see your movements.

However, although Theresa saw it in Su Rui's Scanning Vision, she did not react or speak up to stop Wis'adel.

However, Su Rui noticed from the hormone secretion data that Theresa seemed somewhat unhappy.

Wis'adel took Su Rui's silence as tacit agreement and intensified his intimate actions towards him. If it weren't for the fact that he could still hear things through the earpiece, Su Rui even suspected that Wis'adel would shove him directly onto the conference room table and then...

Moreover, even if the headphones were noise-isolating, Su Rui's mission briefing wouldn't have been that long.

Su Rui gave Wis'adel a slap in annoyance and reminded her through her earpiece, "The mission briefing is almost over."

Prince Kazdel: 335 Kitty Egg Roll are Red and Warm

As the mission briefing was about to end, Su Rui even displayed the countdown in front of her.

At the last second of the allotted time, Wis'adel planted a quick kiss on Su Rui's lips before swiftly returning to his seat.

Theresa sat in the main seat, and Wis'adel sat next to Theresa, which is why she could do those things to Su Rui so easily.

As for Su Rui's location, Su Rui was sitting on the table in the conference room, between Theresa and Wis'adel.

Now that the introduction is complete, the next step is to offend that Kitty Egg Roll, and give it a good beating.

"Go! Sprint, charge!" Su Rui urged in Theresa's earpiece, "Theresa, hurry up! You're the star tonight! With my help, we can easily beat that Kitty Egg Roll to his knees! Make him kneel down and sing 'Conquer'!"

Theresa glanced at the others but didn't react at all, which meant that Su Rui's words were only directed at her.

Thinking of this, Theresa cheered up again. As for the intimacy between Wis'adel and Su Rui just now... it didn't matter. The connection between Su Rui and her was incredibly close.

Even without the telepathic connection between Doctor and Su Rui, Theresa believed that, over the long course of time, as the King of Sarkaz, and with the authority of a Demon Lord, there was no one else who could interfere in her Theresa with Su Rui.

Wis'adel is only temporarily close to Su Rui and has gained a little advantage; he's nothing to be afraid of, and there's nothing to be angry about.

With this in mind, Theresa stood up and gestured to everyone, "Alright, we should get going."

The aircraft activated its camouflage mode and, in just a few minutes, carried Wis'adel and Theresa to the castle where the Kitty Egg Roll lived.

Most of the time was spent on the aircraft accelerating and decelerating, and the aircraft landed without being noticed by anyone.

Under Su Rui's battle plan, Wis'adel and her group quickly reached their positions. There were indeed a few guards along the way, but thanks to Su Rui's warning and Wis'adel's abilities, none of the guards noticed anything amiss. Everyone unknowingly fell into an eternal dream.

Only then did Su Rui allow Theresa to depart:

"Alright, it's your turn. You don't need to bother anyone. Wis'adel and the others will keep out anyone who might cause trouble. You can come in with me, just like taking a walk in your own backyard."

As Su Rui spoke, a smug smile crept onto her lips. She stood up and greeted Theresa, "Let's go. Do I have to invite you again?"

Theresa smiled slightly, rose, and followed Su Rui into the palace.

With Su Rui's Scanning Vision and the directional guidance from the Tactical Visor, Theresa and Su Rui easily avoided all the guards and staff along the way.

However, even though the Scanning Vision was no longer effective, Theresa still preferred to have Su Rui lead her, holding Su Rui's wrist and letting Su Rui lead her forward.

"Like a lost child." Su Rui turned to look at Theresa's face, a smile involuntarily curving her lips, but she didn't speak, for in the quiet palace, Su Rui didn't want to speak.

Soon, Su Rui and Theresa arrived at the entrance to the main hall where the Kitty Egg Roll was located.

In the Scanning Vision provided by Su Rui, Kitty Egg Roll was still slowly sipping wine on a chair in the main hall.

Su Rui raised her hand to stop Theresa, took a slight step back, made a sprinting motion, and then kicked the palace door. "Kitty Egg Roll, we're here to beat you up!"

As the hall door was kicked open with a loud "bang!", even the Bloodfiend Lord, who was enjoying his wine, couldn't help but tremble, spilling the red wine from his hand onto his clothes.

With a sharp, scarlet gaze sweeping over Su Rui, the Bloodfiend Demon Lord slowly spoke, "A foreigner? Are you an assassin? Or a messenger sent by someone?"

"I told you, I brought people here to beat you up!"

Su Rui stood with her hands on her hips, pointing a finger at the Bloodfiend Lord who was high above her seat. "Go, Theresa, beat him into Kitty Egg Roll!"

Theresa chuckled softly, stepped out from beside Su Rui, glanced in the direction of the Bloodfiend Lord, and then drew the Demon King's sword.

"Demon King? I've wanted to talk to you about this for a long time. The current state of the Sarkaz cannot be resolved through non-violent means."

The Bloodfiend Demon Lord stared coldly at Theresa, raising his own weapon as well. "So you've come to kill me?"

"We're actually here to beat you up. From now on, you have to listen to us."

Su Rui found a seat in the main hall, took out drinks and snacks from her System Space, placed them on the table, and then clapped her hands:

"Alright, you can begin."

"..." The Bloodfiend Lord glanced at Su Rui, frowned, and looked at Theresa with a puzzled expression:

"What is your relationship? Is he your capricious favorite concubine, or have you accepted conditions from other countries? The dignity of the Sarkaz cannot be sold!"

As he continued, the Bloodfiend Lord even roared in fury.

Su Rui was initially about to get angry because of the title and opinion of the Bloodfiend Demon Lord, but seeing the Bloodfiend Lord's red and warm appearance, Su Rui was not so angry anymore.

A pleasant smile involuntarily crept onto Su Rui's lips as she mocked:

"Don't worry, I'm on Theresa's side. I don't have any extra power; I'm just powerful enough. But you're in for it today."

Bloodfiend Army, you're unexpectedly tired of reading language, Su Rui:

"So, you were behind all that? I knew that Doctor didn't have that style... You're very capable, how about working for me?"

"No, unless you sign a contract to become a magical girl, I will not accept your conditions."

Su Rui waved her hand and smiled at the Bloodfiend Lord: "You'd better watch yourself first, Theresa's sword is about to strike you."

Theresa certainly wouldn't launch a sneak attack while Su Rui and the Bloodfiend Demon Lord were talking, since her original goal was simply to tame the Bloodfiend Lord.

But as Su Rui spoke, Theresa gripped her sword and walked towards the Bloodfiend Lord:

"Let me see what you're made of, Kitty Egg Roll."

"What kind of name is that?" The Bloodfiend Demon Lord asked in confusion, while Su Rui was also pleased that Theresa had caught up with his sense of humor.

Prince of Kazdel: 336 Perfect Stealth

The outcome of the duel between Theresa and the Bloodfiend Lord was predetermined from the start: Theresa's complete victory.

Even as the Bloodfiend Lord's blood and magic attacked from all directions, Theresa always managed to dodge all the attacks thanks to Su Rui's reminders.

Hearing Su Rui's reminder in her ear, and with everything visible through her goggles, Theresa couldn't help but smile happily as she effortlessly suppressed the Bloodfiend Lord, almost as if in a dance.

Su Rui's voice rang out again. "Alright, we should end this fight. His next move will be that strange blood storm from before. Jump back to dodge, and then, while he's leaning forward and temporarily losing his balance, punch him hard in the chin."

Asking Theresa to utter those somewhat embarrassing lines was indeed a bit of a challenge for Theresa. So, when Theresa punched the Bloodfiend Demon Lord in the chin, sending him flying through the air and spinning as he landed on the ground, Su Rui cheered loudly from the sidelines.

"Dragon Punch! It'll make you fly!"

As the Bloodfiend Demon Lord was sent flying, he finally collapsed to the ground. When he tried to get up, Theresa's blade pressed against his neck. Even though the Bloodfiend had many ways to avoid the blade, the Bloodfiend Demon Lord realized that if he dared to make any rash moves, he would die right there.

"Well, Kitty Egg Roll ~ We won this battle! I've recorded the whole thing. You better behave yourself, or I'll make a hundred million copies of this video and distribute them throughout Terra for everyone to enjoy!"

Su Rui's words did not frighten or shame the Bloodfiend Lord; he merely looked at Su Rui, scrutinizing him from head to toe with suspicion.

"Your actions just now... don't seem like something you would do. Could it be him? No wonder you were wearing those strange goggles; was he trying to warn you?"

The Bloodfiend Lord saw through the situation, but that didn't stop Su Rui from continuing to express his opinion:

"So what? A loss is a loss. If you're so capable, bring in someone else to help you!"

As Su Rui spoke, a pleasant smile crept onto her lips, "You don't know, do you? The subordinate of the mighty Kitty Egg Roll didn't notice anything amiss when his palace was invaded, and the people outside still haven't realized anything is wrong."

"I don't usually need servants, so naturally I won't be noticed," the Bloodfiend Lord stubbornly insisted.

"Oh yes, yes, but right now, Theresa and I have the upper hand. According to your logic, shouldn't you listen to us?"

"... Your logic is childish. My admiration for strength doesn't mean I'll bow down to it. My pursuit of strength is merely to fight against foreign invaders."

Su Rui paused for a moment, then nodded. "You're right, but we can also fight against external enemies together with Theresa. Besides, my plan is much more perfect than your binary thinking."

As Su Rui spoke, Theresa sheathed her sword and then forcibly put the other tactical goggles that Su Rui had given her into Bloodfiend Roll's eyes.

"Listen up, Kitty Egg Roll! From now on, Kazdel is mine to rule, and I'm going to establish new laws! You must all abide by the rules I set!"

A pleasant smile crept onto Su Rui's lips. He beckoned to Theresa, gesturing for Theresa to sit beside him. "Come and rest for a bit. I'll persuade him properly."

"Hmm, can I see your conversation too?" Theresa said, sitting down next to Su Rui and snuggling up to Su Rui.

"Of course, no problem."

Su Rui nodded, then showed the conversation between himself and the Bloodfiend Lord through Theresa's tactical goggles.

To avoid any misunderstanding from Theresa, Su Rui also showed Theresa the plan for Kazdel that he and the Doctor had worked on together, which he had previously explained to Kitty Egg Roll, before starting to play the conversation that Su Rui was currently having with Kitty Egg Roll.

"Moreover, it's not just education and infrastructure, or the future development of Kazdel; I also want to establish a new tax law outside of the existing one! Fighting will be taxed! Carrying weapons will be taxed! Not carrying weapons will be taxed! Breathing will be taxed! Drinking water will be taxed! Sleeping will be taxed! And..."

Su Rui went on and on, and the Bloodfiend Lord, looking at him, was speechless for a moment, only able to silently utter a single sentence:

"I agree with all the plans you mentioned before, and you even showed me their feasibility. But you were joking about the tax law thing, weren't you?"

"Of course not, I'm very serious!"

A pleasant smile appeared on Su Rui's lips. She was about to say something more when Theresa pulled her into a tight embrace and pinched Su Rui's tongue between her fingers.

"Alright, now that we've finished talking, shouldn't we inform Wis'adel and the others that they've left?"

"Hmph, remember, you're already under my command, understand? Don't try anything funny."

Even as Su Rui carried Theresa outside, she still turned around and pointed to her own eyes with her finger, then looked into the Bloodfiend Lord's eyes as if to threaten him.

However, this threat seemed more like... After Theresa left with Su Rui, Kitty Egg Roll suddenly couldn't help but laugh, "I never thought Kazdel would be led into the future by someone like this. I must be crazy to have chosen to believe it."

However, since he was already on the wrong path, the Bloodfiend Lord decided to believe that Su Rui's plan was to bring up the idea at a later meeting of the Military Council and have it voted on.

Theresis is easy to deal with; he and Theresa are siblings, so it's easy to persuade him. According to Su Rui, he will try to get more people to stand on Theresa's side. After the conversation just now, the Bloodfiend Lord also agrees with this.

This boy named Su Rui does indeed possess such abilities.

The Bloodfiend Lord closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt immense pressure making this decision. However, since Su Rui's abilities were so strong and had already been demonstrated, the Bloodfiend Lord had no doubts about his decision.

Meanwhile, Su Rui and Wis'adel had already reunited without being discovered by anyone from the beginning. In fact, during this time, hardly anyone visited the Bloodfiend Lord, let alone stopped them.

Wis'adel looked at Su Rui with some curiosity. "What did you guys go about?"

"Let's go back and talk, let's go back and talk. First, get on the aircraft. My perfect stealth cannot be interrupted at the last moment."

Prince of Kazdel: 337, hurry up, there's money to be made!

After returning to Rhodes Island, Su Rui briefly explained the upcoming arrangements to Theresa, as agreed with her, and then dismissed her team members to go and rest.

Theresa remained by Su Rui's side, waiting in the conference room for Su Rui to continue.

"Are you really that eager for the gift I promised? Isn't it possible that I haven't finished making it yet?"

Su Rui glanced at Theresa with amusement, then sat down at the conference room table and looked at Theresa.

Theresa looked at Su Rui with confidence, a knowing smile on her face, and spread her hands towards Su Rui:

"Alright, I saw you just take out what we agreed on. Isn't this a simple matter for you?"

"It's not that difficult for me, but I can't possibly make everything by hand, can I? That would be too much trouble."

As Su Rui said this, she took out two glasses cases from her System Space and handed them to Theresa:

"This is a gift for you. I'm not entirely sure whether round or square glasses suit you better, but my personal intuition recommends the round ones, which even have cat ear decorations."

Theresa opened the two glasses cases. The square-framed glasses were actually frameless with square lenses, while the round-framed glasses had a small triangle added to each side as cat ears.

These small design details, though not particularly visually striking, were enough to prove that Su Rui had put in the effort, and Theresa couldn't help but smile happily.

"How was it? Although it's just a pair of glasses I made on the spot, my craftsmanship is pretty good. But don't expect me to make things for you all the time; I don't have that kind of patience."

Su Rui didn't speak, but Theresa's voice came through Su Rui's earpiece. "Okay, try them on. The Banshee have suddenly sped up their journey, so we'll see them sooner."

"Why? Aren't they on a spring outing?" Theresa couldn't help but ask, somewhat amused.

"Because after Lamalain played the stories a few times on the cassette player, those young Banshee couldn't wait to come to the Babel to get their own cassette players and the tapes containing the stories... Come to think of it, I clearly told them there was internet."
