The Devil Does Not Need to Be Defeated Chapter 508: “The Beast Demon”

Elven Holand, Tegor Forest.

When Shien returned from outside and ca back to the hot spring-like magic power source, Millu and Lid were still there.

“Airi! Airi!”

Millu was still hugging Shien’s leg and shaking it. Her intentions were obvious.

“Alright, alright, I’ll take you to see Airi now, okay?” Shien sighed. “I wanted to soak in the bath a little longer and clean myself up first.”

Having been interrupted by Millu and Lid, Shien hadn’t enjoyed his bath, so he was a bit dissatisfied.

“Bath?”

Millu tilted her head, glancing at Shien, then at the hot spring, seemingly deep in thought.

Seeing this, Shien was first stunned, then his heart stirred.

(Could this be… a bathing together situation?)

Shien’s dissatisfied expression instantly changed to one of anticipation.

Millu let go of Shien’s leg and ran towards the hot spring.

This made Shien a little excited.

However, reality was cruel.

“Hey!”

Millu dipped her small hands into the hot spring, then suddenly splashed the water towards Shien with a cute shout.

“Splash!”

A large amount of water was splashed from the hot spring by Millu, like a downpour, instantly drenching Shien.

“Huh?”

Shien let out a silly sound, his excitent extinguished as he was drenched by the water.

When the water subsided, Shien, now soaked, stood there dumbfounded, unable to react for a long ti.

“Bath! Done!” Millu ran back, hugged Shien’s leg again, and said with a beaming smile, “Airi! Airi!”

So, this little girl didn’t want to bathe with Shien, but wanted to see Airi quickly and helped Shien finish his bath.

In the simplest and crudest way possible.

“I…”

Shien’s composure crumbled.

He might as well not have bathed at all.

“Pfft! Hahahaha!”

Lid, who witnessed all of this from atop Millu’s head, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

That unrestrained laughter enraged Shien, and he grabbed the fluffy little beast, ruffling its fur vigorously.

“You did that on purpose, didn’t you? Didn’t you?”

Shien, fuming, rubbed Lid’s fur roughly.

“Hey! Stop it! Don’t do that to !”

Lid seed surprised that Shien would dare to touch it, or rather, that anyone would dare to treat it like this. It struggled, its voice filled with anger. 𝑅â𝐍οBΕŝ

Shien ignored it, venting his frustration fiercely, his mood finally improving a little.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to see Airi.”

After tossing Lid back onto Millu’s head, Shien wiped the water from his face and walked ahead listlessly.

“Airi! Airi!”

Millu, who had been stunned by Shien’s actions towards Lid, snapped out of it, putting everything behind her, and happily followed.

“That brat, how dare he treat like this…”

Lid, lying on Millu’s head, smoothed its ruffled fur while muttering resentfully through gritted teeth.

Shien ignored it and continued leading the way.

After leaving the hot spring area, Shien saw her.

He saw Carol pacing back and forth in the open space ahead, looking troubled and anxious.

“You’re back…!?”

Carol also seed to sense sothing, turned her head, saw Shien, and imdiately rushed over excitedly.

“Why so excited?”

Shien didn’t expect this rigid elf to be so worried about him and was a bit surprised.

Who would have thought that Carol, rushing over excitedly, would raise her staff without a word and strike at Shien’s head?

“Crack!”

With a crisp sound, Shien caught Carol’s staff with his hand, stopping it above his head.

“I knew it.”

Shien said, as if he had expected this.

“Let go!” Carol abruptly pulled back her staff, glared at Shien, and said angrily, “Didn’t I tell you not to do anything suspicious?”

Shien’s disappearance had clearly put Carol in a very bad mood.

“Suspicious things?” Shien blinked and said innocently, “I was just taking a walk around. Is that considered suspicious?”

“You…!” Carol was furious. “Do you know that because of your disappearance, Princess Airi and Goddess Lilith almost caused a ruckus in the Elven Holand!?”

Shien really didn’t know about this.

However, he could imagine the scene.

“It seems I made them worry.” Shien scratched his head and smiled wryly. “Now I’ll definitely be scolded when I get back.”

These words, instead of eliciting a response from Carol, caught Lid’s attention.

“So, that girl cares about you quite a bit.” Lid said with mixed feelings. “Getting so worried after you were gone for just a while, it’s hard to imagine that’s sothing Airi would do.”

“Mmm-hmm!” Millu also nodded repeatedly in agreent.

“Who are you…?” Carol finally noticed Lid and Millu, her anger replaced by confusion as she looked at the strange duo.

Shien ignored her.

“Let’s go, we should head back.”

Shien called out to Millu and Lid, intending to take them back to the tree house.

However, at this mont, Lid spoke.

“You take Millu back.” Lid said to Shien, “I’m going to see the Elven Queen.”

It was Carol who reacted to these words.

“See the Queen?” Carol wasn’t surprised that Lid could speak, but beca wary. She looked at Lid and asked, “Who are you? Why do you want to see the Queen?”

Carol stared at Lid vigilantly.

“Don’t worry, little elf.” Lid didn’t seem angered by Carol’s attitude, but said with a smirk, “I’m just going to talk to that little girl Sophie about what happened in the Tegor Forest. I won’t do anything to her.”

“L-little girl?” Carol’s expression froze.

It wasn’t because Lid called her a little girl, but because Lid called Sophie, the Elven Queen, a little girl.

Sophie, as the Elven Queen, had lived for thousands of years.

Those who could call her a “little girl” were very few in all of Omnipotence.

And clearly, these few were all of higher status than Sophie.

How could Carol not be stunned?

But Lid no longer paid attention to her.

“I’ll co over to your place later.” Lid said to Shien, “Keep an eye on Millu for , don’t let her run around, okay?”

After saying that, Lid, for the first ti, stood up from Millu’s head, then with a “whoosh,” transford into a black shadow and dashed out, instantly disappearing in the direction of the Queen’s Palace.

“Wait…!”

Carol wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

Carol instinctively wanted to chase after her.

“Alright, Sister, relax, don’t worry so much, okay?”

Shien reached out, grabbed the back of the Elven Corps vice-commander’s collar, and pulled her back.

“What are you doing!?”

Carol struggled.

Unfortunately, although Carol might be an excellent magician, she definitely wasn’t a good athlete.

Her struggles were nothing to Shien.

Shien calmly held the struggling elf, his other hand holding Millu’s, who was looking happy, and walked towards the tree house.

“There’s no need for that.” Shien said, “If she really wanted to do sothing to your Queen, she would have done so a thousand years ago.”

These words made Carol freeze.

“A thousand years ago…?”

This sensitive ti period being ntioned, how could Carol not guess sothing?

At that ti, Sophie, as the Elven Queen, not only participated in the final battle against the Demon King with the elves, but also, together with Leia and Nia, joined the Hero’s companions and other legendary experts of the human race, forming the renowned Thirteen Heroes, and fought against the Beast Demon, one of the Six Demon Lords.

Now, Shien ntioned a thousand years ago, and also said that if that mysterious little beast wanted to do sothing to the Queen, then the Queen would have been finished at that ti. What this implied didn’t need to be explained.

“Could it be that that talking monster is…?”

Carol trembled.

Shien chuckled.

“Of course, it’s your Queen’s old rival.”

That was it.

…

Elven Holand, Queen’s Palace.

Sophie, sitting on her throne, opened her eyes and stood up.

Leia and Nia had also arrived, their faces tense and worried.

Sophie ca before Leia and Nia and, with these two close aides, looked at the figure before them.

There, the small, fluffy, and mysterious beast appeared, landing before the three legendary elven magicians.

“Long ti no see, Sophie.”

Lid grinned at the three familiar faces.

Looking at this small beast, much smaller than it was a thousand years ago, but still emanating a terrifying aura, Sophie took a deep breath.

Leia and Nia bowed.

“Greetings, Your Highness!”

“Greetings, Your Highness!”

Leia and Nia bowed respectfully, their voices filled with awe.

Sophie did the sa.

“It has indeed been a long ti.”

Sophie’s voice was respectful.

“Liddoma, the Beast Demon.”
