[With the relentless efforts of the Dragon family, now everyone in Demon City knows that Duke Campbell is a Demigod-level Chosen One. It's crazy to pick a fight with a Demigod-level Chosen One in Saint Sis's territory! Even Principal Avin himself would have a tough ti... if he could fly over, that is.]
Damn it!
Luo Yan's expression changed.
I think I might have oversold that boast a bit too much!
Mainly because Luo Yan also didn't expect the Dragon family to be so disgraceful.
He just wanted to give them a polite way out, a way to save face for the dead, but those bastards had no sha and led the donkey down the hill and away!
Alright, alright, you want to play it this way, huh?
Luo Yan gritted his teeth.
Just you wait and see!
Once that Duke Campbell ets Saint Sis, I'll chop him down from Demigod to... spit, Platinum that is!
It's a good thing Mia reminded , otherwise, I'd still be kept in the dark with "no one in the court aware."
[Anyway, missy here gifted you a goblin, so just gratefully accept it. The collar is around his neck, just imbue your magic mark into it, and you beco his master. Ah, of course, if you don't fancy it, no need to waste resources sending it back, you can just dispose of it however you like, missy here doesn't care.]
[Another serious matter to discuss, the Demon King Managent Departnt has no further instructions for you; your priority should be restoring order in the maze as soon as possible, and reinstating rule over the Demon King Territory. As for surface activities, you can delay those. If really necessary, you can lay low for a while. I heard there's sothing going on in the Dinsion Desert, though I don't know what, it might bring a turning point for your mission.]
[Lastly, I hope the arduous ti spent on the distant frontlines sowhat reminds you of the good old days at the Demon King Academy with Miss Mia. If you're willing to kneel down and beg , I and Daddy could sweet-talk into getting you transferred back from the frontlines... mmm, although it's generally impossible, I am not an ordinary Demon, hehehe.]
[By the way, the letter you entrusted to senior Grien to send to your family, I've delivered it for you. To think dear Luo Yan actually turned out to be an orphan, I thought you were joking, hehehe... how interesting.]
The mont Luo Yan finished reading the letter, a wisp of pale green fla whooshed up and consud the letter in an instant.
Even though the Great Graveyard isn't under Demon God Bayele's feet, Demon City certainly is.
And clearly, this guy knew better than to make those impolite remarks in his letter public.
Of course, Luo Yan never considered doing sothing so distasteful anyway.
Having read through the entire letter, he could feel that his old classmate was still looking out for him... albeit in a rather twisted way.
Taking the towel from Sarah's hands, Luo Yan wiped his hands and then spoke to the trembling goblin in front of him.
"Miss Mia told you know a bit about the history of the human kingdoms, and that you have dabbled in the evil books of Isaacism and the Rune Secret Technique... is that true?"
Oke nodded repeatedly at this.
"Indeed! Sir! I... I once served a Mage from Bond! I even helped him assemble so little gadgets with inscriptions! But the na Isaac is much more sensitive on the surface than in Hell, so people accused him of studying forbidden magic, and he wanted to kill Oke to destroy the evidence! But fortunately, Oke was lucky, not only did I escape with my life, but I also fled his Mage Tower. Later on, Oke accidentally ran into slave traders on his way to Hell, and ended up being sold there by the traders..."
An apprentice in Bond?
This goblin might actually be useful.
Especially after hearing this outrageous experience, Luo Yan couldn't help but give him an extra glance; the little guy had quite the luck.
Goblins sold to Demon City may not compare to the local goblins and the Goblin Chief's kids, but they were certainly much happier than those living on the fringes of Hell.
Seeing that Lord Demon King seed interested in him, Oke smiled sycophantically, then his face took on a mysterious expression.
"Let tell you a secret in confidence, few know Isaac's full na, and they often mistake him for a court mage of so king, but they got it all wrong! According to my forr master's research, that guy's na is Linte Isaac, and he's the sa person as the last emperor of the Isaac Dynasty! And Isaacism is what you call the Machine God Sect! And speaking of the Machine God Sect, we goblins have far deeper connections with it than the goblins, let tell you!"
This so-called secret felt a bit like showing off before Luo Yan.
But Luo Yan didn't act like he was familiar with Linte Isaac; instead, he asked curiously.
"What do goblins have to do with Linte Isaac?"
Oke said proudly.
"That guy once boasted he'd give goblins dignity just like goblins, and even give every goblin their own land. But we don't buy into that! Farming is for humans! We don't do that stuff!"
"..."
Luo Yan chuckled as he touched his nose.
What the hell does 'goblin dignity' an?
If goblins could understand what that word ant, would they still be called goblins? Rather than aiming so high, it would be better to promise them a share of female knights.
After defeating Saint Sis, if he felt generous, he might fulfill the promise to the Goblin Chiefs. Maybe he'd pick a few female goblins, throw so swords for the little goblins to chase after for fun. If not in the mood, just make them wait, say for two hundred years... After all, he never said the promise had to be fulfilled while he was still alive.
This Isaac deserved his loss; he couldn't even sugarcoat his lies to win the believers' hearts. It seed he really needed to study more at the Demon King Academy for a couple of years.
But this was getting off track.
During Linte's ti, it should have been the era of the first Demon God, and Principal Ai Wen would definitely have been there, but it was uncertain if the Demon King Academy even existed then.
"...Okay, since you know that the Machine God and Linte Isaac are the sa person, it seems you really know your stuff,"
Luo Yan nodded, making up his mind.
"Hmm, I'll assign you so work then,"
"No problem, my Lord! Oke will make sure you're satisfied! Um... could you activate this collar first?" Oke pointed to his own neck, speaking in a pleasing tone, "If you don't activate this... it might blow up with a bang."
"Small matter."
Luo Yan clapped his hands, and a green light flashed, rging into the collar around Oke's neck.
The collar on Oke's neck had absorbed the mark from Lord Demon King, faintly flashing a light cyan light before returning to calm.
Seeing that Lord Demon King had accepted him, Oke finally breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his back, and said.
"Thank you... thank you, my Lord, Oke will definitely—"
Luo Yan waved his hand, cutting him off.
"No need for the chit-chat, co with . I've prepared a private lab for you; that's where you'll be working from now on."
Having the Dragon family fan the flas from behind, it was unrealistic to expect those soft-shelled turtles from the Demon City to co here... Better rely on yourself as much as possible from now on.
After speaking, Luo Yan led the way, Sarah, alongside Oke and Bond, and the group left the rudintary teleportation room toward the outside caves.
Looking at the majestic back of Lord Demon King, Oke's face showed a touched expression, and his eyes brimd with hot tears.
Such a benevolent master!
He even prepared a private room for him!!!
This wasn't hell, it was heaven—pah! It was still hell!
Having grown up on the surface, he still hadn't adapted to his new identity, his cognition in a state of total disarray.
But one thing was undoubted: Oke had made up his mind! From now on, Lord Demon King was the only master he would serve for the rest of his life!
"Lord Demon King, Oke will definitely—"
Luo Yan said impatiently.
"Enough, I told you to shut up, didn't you hear?"
Oke straightened up, pulling at his voice, as rough as a drake's.
"YES—!!!"
