Upon closer inspection, it was still a scene of ruins—the ravaged Earl Elwin's mansion, with a sign that read, "To find the Chaos Demon, turn right to the Storm Library."
I don't know where this deity came from, but what they did doesn't seem like something a normal demon would do.
However, Marquis Griffith knew in his heart that he absolutely could not suppress this Nightmare Earl.
It's only a matter of time before the underdog overthrows the superior.
and so……
While I'm still in the position of Marquis, I'll give [Chaos Demon] some tasks to do.
He could also make some preparations to deal with the [Chaos Demon].
Of course, what Marquis Griffith didn't expect was that the Chaotic Demons had no intention of developing further.
Above them are the brave warriors of humanity.
The troublesome "weak" creature that originated from that tiny, newly enclosed area.
After the messenger left, Lana slumped on the sofa in the reception room for an unknown amount of time.
She first looked at the map on the table, then turned her gaze to the white ceiling.
"The Demon King's mission..."
Her lips curled up slightly, but tears streamed down her face.
She wasn't laughing, but her expression started to get out of control.
Sanlana's mind was replaying the scene of the other person circling and tapping the map with their finger.
She seemed to see other demons being ordered to do the same thing.
The other person just tapped twice with their fingers...
But tens of thousands of people will lose their homes!
The opponent only pointed at it;
If we switch sides, countless people will lose their lives in the irresistible attack of the demons!
How long has it been since heroes appeared among humans?
Less than two years!
Before this, even the lowest level of demons required humans to kill them with great difficulty.
Even with a large amount of manpower and resources, it is not guaranteed that a level two demon can be killed reliably.
Level three demons are as strong as monsters! Even with all our might, we cannot defeat them!
The opponent merely points on the map, yet humanity faces annihilation!
Throughout human history, the vast majority of people have been unable to escape disasters.
Even if humans run themselves ragged and horses pull their carts until their legs break, they still can't outrun a monster with an agility of 10 or higher.
It should be noted that among humans, only the Gale Clan, who have cultivated secret techniques, possess the highest agility, namely the "Hero of Agility" Felia, who can reach a maximum of 5 points of agility.
Milu may have 4 points of basic agility. This is already a result of her being exceptionally talented and trained, as well as having the advantage of being petite and agile.
You don't even need 20 or 15 points of agility; just 10 points is already a speed that humans can only dream of.
In the event of a sudden large-scale disaster, at least 90% of people are unable to escape even if they want to.
Because these large-scale disasters come without warning to humankind.
Just two years ago, before the hero appeared, without any reconnaissance heroes, what methods did humans use to discover the demons?
The naked eye? Footprints?
But by the time humans were able to detect the existence of demons using these methods...
They would have no chance of escaping from the demons.
Demons are born with an aversion to all races other than demons.
Once a human gets within a distance that allows them to detect demons, they are doomed!
Without the protection of heroes, humanity faces only endless despair!
Lana wiped her tears with her sleeve.
She couldn't describe the feeling.
With just a simple gesture, the other side could cause widespread devastation in such a small human territory.
Her family was like insignificant dust in this disaster.
The demons stirred up dust as they walked by.
With a gentle breeze, their lives were scattered in the air.
Lana felt incredibly sad.
So sad...
She didn't know when, but she even fell asleep.
She opened her eyes and looked at the map on the table. She stood up silently and folded the map neatly.
This is a very valuable resource for all the heroes, and it cannot be torn to pieces in a fit of anger.
Not long after, she gathered the representatives of the heroes for a meeting.
The content of the meeting was;
She now knows the source of the disaster.
During the meeting, the heroes were all deeply moved.
However, those who can stand here as representatives are all quite calm and composed, so they did not show any emotional excitement.
After the meeting, Lana went out for a while, and no one asked her what she was going to do.
In this city where only high-magic-power demons are active, even if a group of level 20 high-magic-power demons came, they would only be crushed by Lana.
She didn't leave the city, or even leave the area covered by the chat group.
We've simply arrived at the [Holy Mountain].
We arrived at the hiding place of the succubi of the Nightmare.
At this time, the thousand succubi had not yet left the city, nor even the Holy Mountain.
They don't need to eat, nor do they need to go out. They are currently in the process of leveling up and need to wait.
When Lana arrived, Mel personally greeted her.
"[Dragon Sword] Lord, what brings you here so late?" Mel asked solemnly.
Lana doesn't often show herself in front of succubi because she feels that succubi are a bunch of lunatics, and if you treat them nicely, they will try to take advantage of you.
It seems they don't just like men; women are also within their sexual orientation.
"Yes, I received a message from the Marquis's messenger, instructing us [Chaos Demons] to expand our territory into human lands," Lana replied truthfully.
Mel paused for a moment, then nodded: "Please come up on stage and explain in detail!"
Anyi had told Lana that although these succubi were a bunch of lunatics, they were also powerful "external brains."
So Lana was thinking that if she told Nightmare this information, there might be results she couldn't have imagined.
This contains thousands of brains with a basic intelligence score of 10!
……
Several days later, in a dressing room in the holy capital of the Aldrich Theocracy.
"Hmph~ Hmph hmph hmph~~"
A beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed elf with pointed ears stood in front of a mirror, turning her body from side to side, admiring the beautiful hem of her dress.
An Yi is coming back!
An Yi is coming back!!
Although the Saintess Squad moved extremely fast, they were not in a hurry because everything was going smoothly in the Demon Clan's operations, and they were able to rest enough along the way.
This period of rest was sufficient for the intelligence to be transmitted back to the Holy Capital.
The nimble hero responsible for delivering intelligence "leaked" the news, allowing Irene to also learn of it.
Just thinking about seeing Annie made Irene hum softly.
Very good!
Volume 3: Chapter 642, Section 128: An Yi, Can I Hold You? (4k)
The first day of the first week of the eleventh month, the second year after the birth of the Holy Hero. Zero.
It took nearly half a month for the Saintess Squad to return to the holy capital of the Aldrich Church. (Seven)
However, this return was not publicized too much; basically, only a portion of the believers within the Holy City and some heroes from the Secret Operations Department knew about it. (8)
The main reason is that there are no plans to hold a "second anniversary event" this year. All the adventurers are currently in a crucial period of leveling up and controlling the demon city, and no one can leave during this time.
If we're not planning any large-scale events and are just coming back to handle serious business, then there's no need for extensive publicity.
After finishing their business, the Saintess Squad still had to return to the Demon Realm to continue their demon-slaying campaign.
The next time I go to the Demon Realm, I'll be facing a Demon Marquis.
The four members of the Saintess Squad traveled to the temple in a comfortable carriage, saving them the last leg of the journey.
An Yi looked out the window; this moment of peace was hard-won.
The highest-ranking demon in the Earl's Domain is a level 20 demon, and now...
It was only the end of the second year.
It's been a year and ten months, or rather, several months since the first successful campaign against the Earl.
In less than a year and a half, the heroes went from fighting the weakest level one demons, such as goblin slimes, to level twenty demons.
And they successfully defeated the Demon Earl.
In my previous life, this was something I wouldn't have dared to even think about.
