Monsters, Monsters! We Seek an Audience with the Demon King! / The Demon King's Authority - Blade of Return
Isn't this how it should unfold?
How can this be turned over in the open? Is there some kind of conspiracy behind this?!
Under everyone's curious gazes, Yaochuan Guang looked utterly speechless. "They were intercepted and killed by other magical girls..."
"Because he resented me for becoming the captain of the 'Wind City Squad,' he secretly sneaked out and killed me and my parents, and then I ate them all... Strictly speaking, I actually helped him get revenge."
"The reason I became who I am today is because Yaochuan Guang's magic essence projected 'light' into the heart of 'demon'."
Is she so angry that Yaochuan Guang became the captain that she wants to kill her entire family?!
"The worst magical girl in the history of Wind City has been found!"
Cong Yu exclaimed in disbelief.
"From what I remember, she seems to have been born in Central City."
Yaochuan Guang added.
That makes sense.
Lantian Zhu spoke up, and Red nodded in agreement.
"Really."
Chapter 712 Monster! Monster! I request an audience with the Demon King!
Do you have that here?
A man wearing a hood
He asked "Dian" this question furtively, carrying a plastic bag containing something in his hand.
Since I came from the direction of the bookstore, the angular things in the plastic bag are probably books.
"That?"
With that question in mind, "Dian" straightened his clothes and said sternly, "Sorry, Nige is no longer selling."
The man's lips twitched at this, and he almost burst out laughing, "Hahaha... I'm dying of laughter."
Okay, then I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Then, the China man who came to buy "that" coughed lightly. "I'm not buying black slaves. I actually heard that your mobile store sells those... so I came here because I heard about it and want to buy one."
"..."
So what is "that"?
"Dian" hesitated for a moment, then looked at "Ma," who was diligently driving, and asked, "Do you know?"
To this, "Ma," who was not fond of talking, did not respond, but simply shook her head silently, indicating that she did not know what it meant.
The man was somewhat helpless as "Dian" turned his head to look at him again... It wasn't that he couldn't say it.
However, the voice of "Dian" is female.
Although it's a silhouette, so you can't tell Dian's gender from the front, her voice is unmistakably female.
So how could he not be ashamed to speak of it?
Finally, the stammering man reluctantly revealed his thoughts. "Um... I want to buy... a super succubus."
What?
Why do you think we sell succubi here...?
Dian still didn't quite understand this issue, and she hesitated before blurting out, "In any case, buying and selling people is illegal now."
Numb. "..."
Man. "..."
The man was on the verge of tears... It was his first time encountering the Holy Grail, and the first time he had mustered the courage to even consider buying Holy Grail.
But now, the courage he had mustered was fading away.
"..." Looking at the man's melancholy face, he finally spoke in a numb voice, "You're here to buy the Holy Grail, aren't you?"
Hearing the strange, dark-skinned man's voice, the man almost cried again. This time, however, it was tears of emotion. "Yes, yes, yes."
I finally understand!
Indeed, men (though the "men" part is debatable) understand men best!
"Oh, you should have said so earlier..."
"Dian," who was saying this, shrugged speechlessly and then searched for something in the "warehouse" at the back of the carriage.
Of course, in reality, out of sight of passersby, "Dian" entered the Black Hollow and searched for goods in the warehouse section.
Then, very quickly, "Dian" came out, glanced at the words on the packaging box, and said, "Good heavens, it really is called 'Super Succubus,' how tacky."
As she said this, "Dian" paused, then added in her rambling statement, "I meant the part about 'super'."
"..." Why are you making sarcastic remarks?! Where did this come from, some kind of comedic role?!
Didn't you guys get the goods yourselves? How awful! What a strange little shop! It's so weird!
In his shame and anger, the man paid, stuffed the "super succubus" box into an opaque plastic bag, and headed home.
However, the Holy Grail is indeed not expensive, at least half the price of the Holy Grail online... and its quality doesn't really matter.
It's just a trial run anyway.
"..."
"Oh, it actually sells well, this kind of thing..."
Some of the commentators, still pondering this, muttered to themselves, "So, some humans are born disliking the opposite sex, but are more fascinated by simulated male reproductive organs... Is that true?"
In response, "Ma" believes it may be because some human females treat their organs as resources and sell them at a high price.
However, given his apathy, he wouldn't say that.
And in this seemingly harmonious exchange of [one side exclaiming praises, the other remaining silent], something very abruptly happened...
A feeling instantly overwhelmed the two of them.
This "attack" was not an "attack," but rather a spreading, almost tangible sensation... that was transmitted to the two Monsters.
The two of them were startled almost simultaneously, then looked in the direction of Bright Moon Town... The two of them were currently setting up a stall in Starry City.
I originally wanted to go to Bright Moon City, but it was too crowded there, and they didn't allow vans to drive around selling things.
I had no choice but to settle for selling it in Starry City.
"..."
"Hey, can you feel it?"
"Dian" spoke first, and "Ma" nodded in unison... Both of them had already sensed it.
Something was truly born.
He's probably the Demon King.
"No matter how I think about it, the direction of Bright Moon Town leads to that person... the golden magical girl beside Cong Yu."
"Dian" continued speaking, while "Ma" kept nodding.
After that, the two hardly needed to exchange any more words and simultaneously entered the Black Hollow, ready to ask "Le" for clarification.
Upon arriving at the Black Hollow, they saw "Le" fiddling with his phone. After seeing the two of them arrive, he put his chat history with Cong Yu on the big screen and smiled, telling them to look at it themselves.
[Cong Yu:]
I told Yaochuan Guang Demon King real name... Do you know Yaochuan Guang?
[Cong Yu: In short, I'm not sure what will happen next.]
[Cong Yu: In short, Yaochuan Guang is the Demon King. If you tell her his real name, you can merge with the Demon King's memories.]
[Cong Yu: Whether her personality will change afterward is also unknown.]
"Cong Yu" retracted a message.
[Cong Yu: Her personality might change drastically.]
[Le: Hahaha, I knew it...]
The chat history ends here.
It seems that Cong Yu did indeed know who the Demon King was all along. However, she was worried about the Demon King who was now known as "Yaochuan Guang," so she had not revealed it.
Logically, the deceived Monster should be angry.
On one hand, Cong Yu was considering things for the sake of the Demon King they believed in... On the other hand, the Demon King was completely in cahoots with Cong Yu.
Getting angry? Getting angry until your face turns red won't help.
That's incredibly audacious!
Since even the Demon King himself said "I have no objection," they shouldn't have any objections either—they dare not have any objections!
If you dare to cause trouble, you'll be officially removed from the list of Monster!
"Haha... something interesting has happened--"
"Le" said, squinting his eyes and shaking his head, "It can only be said that the Demon King's awakening is indeed extraordinary."
What's the meaning?
"Beng" sounded somewhat annoyed, and she reached out and grabbed "Le" by the neck... looking like she was about to "refine" him in an instant.
"Don't tell riddles."
"Le" was no longer amused by "Bang's" threat. He immediately began to explain the situation seriously, "Our mindless kin are gradually evolving in the direction of 'us'..."
"..." Oh, that's really... quite a serious situation.
"So what do we do next?"
"Bang" continued to ask, maintaining constant pressure... This was the correct way to deal with "Le": "Go and pay homage to the Demon King?"
"Go and seek an audience with the Demon King."
"Whom should I ask?"
"..."
"Hmph, fine... I got it. Quickly tell Cong Yu that you're the only one here who has him as a friend."
"Hahaha... didn't you expect that?"
Chapter 713 The King's Authority - Blade Return
"So, what exactly did you mean by taking me to see other Monster, Cong Yu- chan? Wasn't it Little Shadow?"
As he said this, Yaochuan Guang adjusted his sun hat and curiously sat opposite Cong Yu.
To this, Cong Yu, who was sitting in the McDonald's's, simply replied, "No... Strictly speaking, you should have seen it."
After a moment's thought, Cong Yu summarized succinctly. "They are your... Six Knights of the Demon King."
What? The Six Knights of the King?
Is there really such a setting?!
Yaochuan Guang was somewhat shocked, but because Cong Yu's summary was overly concise, he didn't quite understand.
But then Cong Yu immediately realized something and quickly changed her tune. "But actually, there are only five knights left."
"Because there was another knight who didn't have time to transform into human form and was killed by Zongzheng Ximei and Dente (this is questionable) working together."
Yaochuan Guang blinked at Cong Yu's words, realizing which time Cong Yu was referring to...
It seems that Dente and Zongzheng Ximei went to Italy and killed a Monster. Yaochuan Guang also seemed to have heard about it at the bar.
So that was one of my knights?
