Sarah's eyes narrowed slightly. Although she remained silent, a dangerous glint flickered in her sharp gaze.
This foul spider was becoming increasingly presumptuous.
A re Bronze dares to speak to soone like , who has reached the Fine Steel Level, in such a tone.
Noticing the hostility in Sarah's gaze as she looked at Alakdo's back, Luo Yan coughed lightly and reprimanded the latter.
"I don't like hearing that kind of talk. You are all my house servants. When have I ever been partial? The reason I keep her by my side is because she is better at assisting to infiltrate human society. I can't very well ride you through the streets of Thunder City, can I?"
"Apologies... I was thinking too simplistically." Alakdo lowered his head in embarrassnt, swaying his hefty backside, completely unaware that he had narrowly escaped a brush with death.
Luo Yan gently shook his head.
He sowhat understood Reggie Dragon's difficulties; these Demons have such bizarre thought processes, so love stealing, so love courting death... they are much harder to manage than humans.
The robe-clad acolyte quietly followed beside, awkwardly at a loss for words and dared not intervene.
At this mont, Luo Yan suddenly looked at him.
"Are you human?"
The acolyte nodded slightly, responding respectfully.
"Yes, my lord."
"Most of my acolytes are Guardian Clan and Corpse Ghosts; pure-blood humans are rare."
Luo Yan smiled and continued looking at him.
"What is your na? When did you co to the Great Graveyard?"
Seeing Lord Demon King asking for his na, the acolyte's face showed excitent, nodding reverently.
"My na is Dave, I'm a refugee from Twilight Forest, and I ca to your territory around last winter."
"That's quite a while," Luo Yan nodded. "The snow was really heavy, getting here must not have been easy for you."
"Indeed." Dave's eyes flickered slightly, taking a deep breath before continuing, "You might not rember, but it is thanks to your and your servant's kindness that my two children survived the heavy snow... Since then, I swore to follow your steps."
"I rember those two children. Was it Andy? Maggie?" Luo Yan said with a smile.
He had actually learned about this incident on the forum from player discussions, and similar events have occurred quite a few tis over the past months.
Not all refugees can accept living alongside the Undead and Demons; many would rather starve in the snow than co close to this place.
Thus, he held a great interest in those refugees who willingly joined the Great Graveyard.
On one hand, because they were human like him, and on the other hand, because he wanted to know what they were thinking.
Unexpectedly, Lord Demon King rembered his children's nas, which filled Dave's face with emotion, his voice trembling slightly with excitent.
"Yes, Lord Demon King... due to your blessing, they are living well now. I never thought they would have the chance to learn to read before reaching adulthood..."
Luo Yan gave a gentle smile and continued.
"I'm glad to hear they're doing well. It seems my minions have not forgotten my teachings. And you? How are you feeling?"
Dave's expression gradually grew serious, his voice taking on a solemn and reverent tone.
"Saint Sis promises us paradise after death yet never veers from his promise, and his servants have never shared their glory with us. But you are different from him; you have allowed to witness what paradise looks like while alive... I am willing to offer my soul to you, to serve your throne eternally, until the end of death."
Luo Yan nodded.
"I appreciate your loyalty, and I assure you I will not fail it. Your soul will enter the Rebirth Pool after you die, returning to the nation you helped build in the form you wish."
"Do your best; this is not only for but also for your next life."
