The Villainous Noblewoman Is About to Be Forced into Love, Isn’t This Wrong? Chapter 298: Raising a Demon
“The Laurent Territory?”
Is it an accident? Or is the Laurent Territory deliberately raising it?
Liana wasn’t sure. She only knew that she had to make a trip there.
“Are you sure?”
“Why don’t you try it and see for yourself, Liana?” Sephirena said, pointing at the holy sword.
This was what it had told her. And since Her Highness was its true mistress, it would surely explain the matter to her as well.
Liana closed her eyes to sense the sword. Sure enough, after she closed her eyes, a scene appeared in her mind. Although she wasn’t sure where it was, she did indeed see a giant, pitch-black demon wolf.
And, most importantly, there were several humans around the wolf, tied up, looking like its food.
“Soone is raising it in captivity?” Liana thought of this at once. After all, how could a demon wolf tie up humans and put them aside?
For this problem to appear was already very serious. Soone knew the danger of the demons but had still hidden this matter.
“I think so,” Sephirena nodded.
“How did you know the demon wolf was in the Laurent Territory?” Liana hadn’t been able to tell where that place was specifically.
“Because I have been there before. Perhaps it is because of my previous stay there that the mana in that place is more abundant than in other places. This may be the reason why they are raising the demon wolf in this place,” Sephirena said.
“Can you be sure where this place is?” Liana asked.
“Mm. I am very sure,” she nodded.
If Sephirena knew, then it would be much simpler. But because of the holy sword, she also had to go with her.
And there were not many people in this world who had the ability to raise a demon wolf. In the Laurent Territory, there was only one person.
That was the Judge of the Laurent Territory. To face a fellow of this level, and also to deal with the executor-level demon wolf by his side, Liana’s own strength was definitely not enough. Even with Minoga and Kasla, she couldn’t guarantee sufficient safety.
Liana didn’t believe that the Laurent Judge would do this alone. Even if he were, it would be very dangerous for Minoga to go and defend against him alone. No one knew if the Laurent Judge had accepted the power of the demon race.
If he had, then his strength could probably no longer be evaluated by the standards of an ordinary Judge. At least two Judges would be needed to ensure safety.
Then there would be nothing to protect Liana. After being raised, she didn’t know how strong the demon wolf would be. She didn’t want to do sothing she wasn’t sure of, especially when it involved the safety of others. She would beco extra cautious.
“Do you need to find soone to help?” philia asked at this mont.
“We need to make so preparations. Besides, since the other party has raised a demon, they must have made thorough preparations. If we go rashly, we will definitely be discovered,” Liana said after thinking for a mont.
The other party was a Judge, and the person he had to face was also a Judge, so it was impossible for him to have no preparations.
A Judge had many ans. Perhaps the mont they entered the territory, they would discover an anomaly. It would be troubleso if he were to hide then.
What she said now indeed carried a lot of weight as the Chosen, but the premise was that they could really find him. Otherwise, if this dragged on for a long ti, this authority would only diminish, eventually leading to many people not being able to believe her words.
“Should we discuss this with the King of Lisat? He will help us. Even if not from the standpoint of a father, from the standpoint of the King, he will also help. This is a hidden danger left in the kingdom,” philia said.
“Mm. This indeed requires his help.” Liana didn’t think she could solve these troubles with her own strength.
After arranging the subsequent matters, Sephirena left the room.
Only the three of them were left.
“Just now, was there sothing you wanted to say, Liana? About Vikana,” philia asked.
“It’s a little inappropriate to speak ill of an elven hero directly in front of other elves,” Liana sighed. If the records were not wrong, Vikana held a very important position in elven history. Without absolute evidence, and only with speculation, it was a bit impolite to say ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) it in front of Sephirena.
“What is it?” philia asked.
Liana explained the two possibilities she had guessed, then added, “I personally am more inclined to believe that Vikana is related to the demon race.”
“It’s better to believe it than not,” philia nodded in agreent. “The significance of the holy sword is too great. It’s better to be a little more cautious.”
“Looking at it from the worst-case scenario, Vikana letting the academy students sign up for the trials themselves will instead beco more dangerous,” Loraviel said suddenly at this mont.
Liana nodded with satisfaction. Loraviel was indeed very smart to have thought of this.
“Because this way, it will create a misconception for others that they themselves wanted to participate in the demon trials. But Vikana also has the ability to forcibly make people participate. Then, the various accidents that occur in the trial can also be explained away. No matter what kind of accident happens, it can be thrown onto the voluntary participation,” Loraviel continued.
philia pouted, a little annoyed. She had also thought of this, but Loraviel had beaten her to it. Loraviel showing off in front of Liana made her a little unhappy.
“We don’t need to worry about the safety of others. He has no need to cause a panic, so the target is probably just the few of us,” Liana said.
But at the sa ti, there was a question she had never been able to explain. “But why expose this matter in advance?”
This was sothing she had never been able to understand. If he really planned to do so, he should have let the demon trials be the sa as before, letting them lower their guard, thinking that the worst was just a punishnt of expulsion, not death.
Liana had indeed participated in the death trial that day, but the strength of the demon was not as powerful as she had imagined. Was it an oversight? Did he think a demon of that level could deal with her?
“That is indeed very strange. What Vikana is doing now seems to be a redy, to make people lower their guard again. But wouldn’t it have been fine if he just hadn’t done it in the first place?” philia nodded in agreent.
“Troubleso things are becoming more and more nurous.” Liana rubbed her head.
What Vikana was doing was really a bit difficult to understand. There was a sense of disconnect...
Perhaps, neither of Liana’s two thoughts was wrong? But she couldn’t be sure of this right now.
“Let’s get a good rest first. The main task now is the Laurent Territory,” philia said, coming up behind Liana and giving her a very considerate shoulder massage.
This made Loraviel’s eyebrows twitch. This was originally sothing she should be doing, but in this situation, she could only stand quietly on the side.
“The Laurent Territory has been abnormally quiet recently, and so strange things have also been investigated,” philia said.
“So you all noticed this long ago?” Liana said.
“After all, my status is what it is. I only gave up the status of an heir on the surface. For so matters concerning the Venus Dukedom, I certainly have been paying attention.”
“Then what did you find specifically? I went back for a trip, and Erinna said sothing similar.” Liana recounted what she had said to Erinna before.
“A very keen sense of sll,” philia nodded in approval. “The Darriss and Angus territories are indeed plotting sothing. But you don’t need to worry. The Lisat Kingdom will handle it.
“As for the Laurent Territory, as Erinna said, it is abnormally quiet. If it were the old Laurent Territory, they should have appeared at the first opportunity now, to slay demons and show off their swordsmanship,” philia said.
“But the opponent is a demon, after all. It’s not strange for there to be no action, is it?” The gap between the demonkind and humans was still too large. Few people dared to risk challenging them.
“That is true.” philia first nodded in affirmation. “Recently, the number of bandits in the Laurent Territory has suddenly decreased a lot.”
“Isn’t that a good thing...” Liana’s pupils suddenly dilated. She rembered the people she had seen tied up in the holy sword’s vision just now.
Could those fellows be the missing bandits?
Because they were bandits, no one cared if they disappeared. On the contrary, it would be considered a good thing. It would be thought that the security of the Laurent Territory had improved a lot.
“Do you realize it now?”
“You even investigated this specifically?” This surprised Liana a little.
“Of course. Although we also want to eliminate the bandits, for them to suddenly disappear overnight, it’s hard not to be concerned. Whether it’s related to raising demons or not, we also have to remain vigilant, because they may also be plotting sothing. Perhaps they are already preparing to attack the next town,” philia said.
It could only be said that this was a coincidence. If it weren’t for what happened today, philia would not have made the connection at all.
“It seems we have to hurry. The growth rate of the demon race is really too fast. It can devour the other’s mana.” Liana looked out the window. The dim yellow sunset was shining in through it.
“I’ll go to the royal capital tomorrow...” philia thought for a mont. “You shouldn’t go back with , Liana. You’re the center of attention right now. If possible, it would be better for you to go out for a stroll tomorrow.”
