Before long, when the great battle ended, it was already nearing the end of dusk.
A large number of people lay sprawled on the street.
Except for Muya, who hadn't made a move, all of Atofe's personal guards were knocked to the ground by Luo Ge.
Some were huddled against the wall, clutching their stomachs; some were sprawled out in the middle of the road; and several were piled up together, like sandbags tossed aside.
Luo Ge stood among these people, clapped his hands, and did so seemingly effortlessly.
He turned to look at Nanahoshi, who had been hiding behind him, without turning his head. " Nanahoshi, let's go."
"Seriously, you're amazing. You were just like the protagonist in a shonen manga." Nanahoshi couldn't help but murmur, her heart racing and her blood boiling.
She was so excited watching it that, to be honest, she almost couldn't resist joining Luo Ge in the fight.
Just as Luo Ge was about to leave with Nanahoshi, he suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged from behind.
It's not the Nanahoshi.
It was Kishirika.
"Waaaaaahh...
She was squatting in front of me, her dirty little face upturned, her bright, watery eyes wide open.
Although he didn't speak, his eyes seemed to be pleading with Luo Ge to take me along!
Luo Ge covered his forehead, looking utterly helpless. "Sigh, I owe you... I just can't do anything with you."
"Since I've already gone this far to help, I'll see it through to the end... Hmm... Come on up."
"Huh?"
Kishirika's eyes lit up immediately.
Then Luo Ge picked her up and carried her on his back.
The group quickly left.
Although Atofe's personal guard had been dealt with, the trouble was not completely over.
On the contrary, they will soon face the wrathful retribution of that Immortal Demon King.
Although Luo Ge wasn't afraid, his immediate priority was not to waste too much time on the Demon Continent and invite unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, after rescuing Kishirika... Luo Ge quickly took Nanahoshi and Kishirika and left Town of Klasma together.
Luo Ge planned to hand Kishirika over to the Wisdom Demon King before leaving... in this way, he would fulfill his previous promise.
Shortly after the three left Town of Klasma, just before nightfall.
Rumble!
A figure descended from the sky, crashing into the ground and creating a large crater. After the thick smoke dissipated,
The newcomer had a single horn on her forehead and a pair of bat wings spread out behind her. Despite her slender figure, she was not much different from a normal human woman.
But he was clad in scarred black armor, and a massive heavy sword hung at his waist.
And she was none other than the ruler of the Gasslow Region, the infamous Immortal Demon King Atofe.
"Huh? What happened?"
"What exactly happened? Muya! What on earth happened here?"
Atofe looked bewildered as he saw a group of his men lying on the ground, heavily wounded.
At this moment, Atofe was puzzled again.
While helping with the treatment, Muya cautiously reported, "Lord Atofe, we were ordered to capture Lady Kishirika, but we encountered someone who desperately tried to stop us."
"We fought them for three hundred rounds, and in the end, both sides were severely injured..."
"Huh? Is it that bastard Badigadi? I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill him right now!" Seeing Atofe's anger, Muya immediately knelt down.
"Lord Atofe, please calm down... The one hindering our work is not Lord Badigadi, but a human boy."
"Huh? A human? And a boy?!"
Atofe immediately became interested and laughed excitedly, "Hahaha, is it the hero who has come to the Demon Continent to destroy the Demon King? Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! We have been waiting for this day for far too long!"
"My greatsword has been thirsting for blood for a long time!"
"Brave!"
"Come forth! I am the Immortal Demon King Atofe Raibaku! Whoever defeats me will be officially bestowed with the title of 'Hero'!"
Atofe excitedly brandished his greatsword, his excitement beyond words.
However, she was slow to realize that after chopping for a long time, she realized that she had just been randomly slashing at thin air.
She waved, gesturing for Muya beside her to answer.
" Muya!"
"Where is the hero who came to challenge me? Where has he gone? Tell me quickly, where did the hero go?"
"Lord Atofe, the hero has already escaped with Lady Kishirika."
"What?"
In an instant, Atofe was dumbfounded.
Her face immediately darkened.
"Damn it! They actually ran away? I absolutely cannot allow that! The mission to defeat the Demon King is not yet complete. How can a hero give up halfway?"
"Escape? Tell me, where did the hero escape to?"
"Never mind."
"Never mind! Chase him! No matter the cost, I will catch that hero and defeat him myself!!"
"Lord Atofe!!!"
When Muya saw Atofe fly out of the city to give chase, it was too late to warn him.
He shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Oh dear, this is wrong, this is wrong, Lord Atofe... you're chasing in the wrong direction."
"That human fled south, but the place you went to... that's the Heaven Continent where the Celestials live."
But it was too late for him to warn them, because Atofe, the Immortal Demon King, had already rushed far ahead.
at the same time.
Just after leaving Town of Klasma, Luo Ge and his group encountered the Demon King, not the Immortal Demon King Atofe, but the Wisdom Demon King Badigadi.
"Hahahahahahaha..."
"You certainly didn't disappoint me. At the crucial moment... you didn't abandon my fiancée and escape alone."
" Rog Greyrat, I now officially acknowledge you."
A burst of laughter followed as Badigadi blocked Luo Ge's path; his massive frame made him impossible to miss.
" Badi?"
When Kishirika saw Badigadi, her eyes lit up immediately. She skillfully sat on Badigadi's shoulders, laughing heartily, just as if she had survived a close call.
They looked at each other and burst into laughter.
Even Luo Ge had no idea what they were laughing about.
Although he already knew the two were engaged, Luo Ge was still surprised when he saw Kishirika sitting on Badigadi's shoulders.
This difference in body size is even more pronounced.
To be honest, this art style is indeed quite difficult to mess up.
A burly man with six arms, with a little purple-haired girl perched on his shoulder—the contrast is striking.
"Your Majesty, we meet again?" Luo Ge smiled slightly, his eyes narrowed.
"Yes! Thanks to you all, my fiancée is safe and sound this time, haha."
"Really? Badi, you think so too... Ahaha, I admire this young man very much!"
"Wait a moment!"
"Stop laughing, Your Majesty Badi. If I may ask... how did you end up here?"
"Right, didn't we already agree to meet in Rikarisu Town?"
"Oh, that?"
"I was worried about your safety, which is why I came all this way to meet you. Seeing you're all alright is so great, hahaha..."
"So, Your Majesty Badigadi, you've actually been following us all along? Or rather, monitoring us...?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the room instantly fell silent.
Badigadi's laughter abruptly stopped.
Luo Ge thought to himself... Sure enough, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes never believed him from beginning to end.
Even if I had just chosen to leave, there's a high probability that Kishirika would be alright... Badigadi certainly wouldn't stand idly by.
If it were him who made the move, Kishirika wouldn't even face the slightest risk of being exposed.
The Wisdom Demon King is indeed unfathomable.
Although Luo Ge had seen through Badigadi's ulterior motives, Luo Ge didn't expose him further and left it at that.
"Your Majesty! Now that Lady Kishirika has been brought to your side, according to our previous agreement, I must depart."
"Wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?"
"By the way, your next plan is probably to leave the Demon Continent by ship, right?"
"It is so, what instructions does Your Majesty the Demon King have?"
"Take my advice: don't leave for now."
Badigadi's smile faded, and his tone became more serious. "That idiot Atofe, although she's the least bright among the Demon Lords, she'll figure it out someday."
"If she realizes what's going on and sends troops to hunt you down across the entire Demon Continent, that will be troublesome. She alone isn't a big deal, but being harassed by her large group of personal guards will probably be a real problem for you, right?"
" Badi is right, Atofe is the dumbest of all the demon kings!"
Kishirika wholeheartedly agreed, and after her initial complaint, she looked at Luo Ge with gratitude. "Hey! Anyway, you guys listened to Badi's advice... you definitely didn't go wrong!"
Badigadi found Luo Ge unfathomable, but Luo Ge listened very carefully to what Kishirika had to say.
"So? Is His Majesty Badigadi planning to help us?"
"Yes."
"Listen up, everyone. I, Badigadi, have a plan that can help you get rid of that idiot Atofe."
"Oh?"
"The Demon King also has a plan?"
"Ha ha... Of course, I am the most learned person in the entire Demon Continent, known as the Wisdom Demon King..."
Seemingly to show off in front of his fiancée, Badigadi deliberately stretched out six arms in front of everyone, displaying his impressive muscles in an extremely exaggerated pose.
