Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Sitting at the dressing table, removing her makeup, Rodriza stared at her reflection in the mirror blankly.

What she feared most had happened.

The war between the two countries did not continue but came to an unexpected end.

More than ten years of painstaking efforts collapsed overnight.

At that time, her premonition was correct; the man was quite dangerous.

If she could have completely eliminated that man back then, there wouldn’t be so many problems now.

A light flashed over the cat-shaped button, and Rodriza received a reply from her master.

”Continue to stand still, you have done enough.

The rest is to wait for Lord Demon King to descend, evaluate the results, and then...

Strike at the opportune moment.”

Even if there were grievances, Rodriza could only follow her master’s decision.

After the Goddess Sect intervened, the actions of the Enchanting Demon were greatly restricted, even using the magic bat had to be done with extreme caution...

The counterattack from the Peace Faction against the Main War Faction was also strong, with many from the Main War Faction joining the Peace Faction.

Basically, as long as you show hostility towards the Wansheng Republic, you will be captured by the Peace Faction.

Even if they were not actually controlled by the Enchanting Demon, as long as they didn’t want peace, they would be forcibly labeled as controlled by the Enchanting Demon, forcibly made to keep the peace.

Under such circumstances, it’s difficult to do anything more.

Indeed, staying still was the only possible choice.

Her severe expression softened, and Rodriza accepted reality.

Fortunately, there were not only bad news in these days filled with bad news.

The wedding date for the Eldest Prince and her had been set.

Although this wasn’t her achievement, but her eldest sister Rosalind’s...

As long as she could control the Eldest Prince, her master’s plan could proceed more smoothly.

Suddenly, a knock on the door sounded, and Rodriza’s sister entered with an invitation letter.

An aura that could block sound expanded from Rodriza, covering the entire room.

Changing from gentle and weak, Jin walked up to the dressing table carelessly, placing the invitation letter in her hand, and said:

”Sister, there will be a celebratory banquet in two days. Yang Yu will also attend then.”

Glancing at Jin, Rodriza asked: ”The invitation letter just arrived, right? Where did you get this news?”

Jin said nothing, nor did her gaze wander guiltily.

This demeanor was tantamount to indirectly admitting that she had used some unconventional means to learn the news early.

Rodriza sighed deeply,

”Master said before, this is a crucial time now.

To prevent exposure, Charming Magic must not be used lightly because...”

”’Because it is still unclear what method he used to discern who was charmed, and who might be an Enchanting Demon.’

I’ve heard this to the point of exhaustion.

Don’t be so worried, dear sister.

At that time, they interrogated many people, indicating they couldn’t distinctly tell who had been charmed and who was an Enchanting Demon.

In the end, it was just a hit-and-miss restriction of the range.

The fact that we’re still here is the best evidence, isn’t it?”

Rodriza shook her head, ”They simply haven’t found our weaknesses yet.

Once they find a weakness, it’s hard to ensure we won’t face any problems.

This time I’ll forgive you.

But if anything happens, you’ll have to bear the consequences yourself.”

Jin sneered and pouted; as long as they could control that man, they would know what method he used without all this trouble.

It has been challenging to instigate another war, all thanks to that man.

Jin somewhat understood why their master was fixated on that man, even at the cost of halting this war.

If they could capture that man, her evaluation with their master would rise significantly.

The current situation was undoubtedly dangerous, but it was also an opportunity.

The intervention by the Goddess Sect concluded that the Enchanting Demon could no longer act maliciously, and they had never been more complacent than now.

Jin decided to seize the opportunity.

If successful, she could stop pretending and could leave this country first, receiving her master’s favor.

”I will actively take responsibility, ensuring my sisters won’t be implicated.

Nobody knows how long it will take for the Demon King to descend, and doing nothing in silence, I cannot bear it.

Following the previous actions of the Colorful-haired Masked Man, there’s a high chance he won’t stay in the Luoze Empire.

Even though he is the ’hero’ who stopped the war, many still view him as the ’Demon.’

If he stays in the country, he will undoubtedly face exclusion and difficulties.

Controlling him is a top priority.

If there’s a chance, I will leave no stone unturned.

Jin took out a button identical to Rodriza’s.

A burst of light flashed, and before Rodriza could respond, she had already contacted their master on her own.

Rodriza’s button flashed with a light, and her master’s voice rang in her ear:

”Since she is willing to bear the consequences, let her proceed.

After leaving the Luoze Empire, indeed, opportunities are scarce.

I look forward to seeing her act.”

...

...

To celebrate the return of the envoy team, the Luoze royal family held a banquet.

Just like last time, this time it was also Chilom who was the chef.

With one day left before the banquet, having sought Chilom’s agreement, Yang Yu planned to take a break and give Bai Jin some rehabilitation training.

Yang Yu got up early, intending to check on Bai Jin.

But he found Bai Jin had also woken up early, changing into brand new robes and clothes, adjusting constantly in front of the mirror.

Upon seeing Yang Yu, Bai Jin bashfully averted her gaze, her cheeks slightly flushed,

”I embarrassed myself yesterday. Don’t make fun of me.”

”I won’t make fun of you.

You look in good spirits, which reassures me.

Having decided to continue with me, prepare yourself mentally; my training for you is going to become stricter.

I’ve thought for a while; indeed, you need more self-defense and judgment capabilities.

Today’s rehabilitation training will begin with this.”

Yang Yu gestured for Bai Jin to follow, leading her to the expansive lawn in front of Chilom’s villa.

Lotcar and Iyas were also present, assisting with the training. As for He Meng, he had long been assigned by Yang Yu to Chilom, to ensure that the remnants of the Enchanting Demon wouldn’t cause any trouble.

With her heart newly repaired, Bai Jin channeled her magic power and cast magic, not feeling any abnormality.

If not for the thin scar left on her chest, Bai Jin might have thought she had just had a dream.

Continuing with the training, Yang Yu’s training rhythm was indeed drastically different from before.

Previously, Yang Yu progressed gradually from easy to hard, stopping at the right point.

But now, Yang Yu used full force from the start, displaying an indescribable pressure, dodging her attacks almost mercilessly to engage closely.

Moreover, Yang Yu initiated attacks differently every time, making it difficult to find a pattern.

Yang Yu no longer offered any improvement suggestions, but asked Bai Jin what she thought should be done, then repeated the attack just now, allowing Bai Jin to keep trying, exploring answers on her own, until she could barely block his attack route.
