Chapter 108: Three Thousand Enchanting Demons
"Then, what about this temporary passage?"
Since Catherine brought up the main issue, Lynn naturally followed her lead.
"This kind of random space rift expanding into a temporary passage won’t last long... How about this, Sifrin and I will return to the Divine Protection Continent and keep an eye on the status of the space passage for you. If anything happens, I’ll cross the boundary immediately to send you a message. Meanwhile, you can try to explore the Demon Realm. If you encounter any demons, kill them. If not, just note down the terrain and environment. Regardless of whether I send you a message or not, you must return before dark, understood?"
Catherine thought for a moment and spoke quite a bit in one breath. This was the most valuable thing the three of them could do for the moment.
"Understood! I will follow my wife’s command!"
Lynn stood at attention, expressing his resolute obedience to orders.
Catherine wanted to correct Lynn’s way of addressing her, but since she had just outdone Sifrin by a tiny margin, she decided to play along for now.
"What about you?"
Catherine then turned to Sifrin.
"I can’t grasp the reasoning, your words follow through."
Sifrin casually expressed her position.
"Alright then, let’s get to action!"
With that, Catherine had Sifrin knock the Enchanting Demon unconscious with a Magic Staff, and the two sisters passed through the space passage one after another, taking the Enchanting Demon along with them.
Although this captive wasn’t important, leaving her in the Demon Realm concerned Catherine that Lynn might be tempted to do something wrong...
After the two sisters left, Lynn paused briefly before quickly flying off in a chosen direction.
Yet just as he reached the nearby forests, Lynn felt a stirring from the Demon Mirror inside his Spatial Ring.
However, it wasn’t a video call or a message; it seemed like something was attracting it, causing it to vibrate unconsciously.
"Who’s there? Come out!"
The disturbance from the Demon Mirror alerted Lynn, making the person hiding nearby unwittingly reveal a trace of aura, which Lynn promptly sensed and captured.
"As expected, the Demon Emperor’s insight is keen; no one has ever detected me in a stealth state before."
As Lynn finished speaking, the Demon Mirror in his ring shook wildly, and simultaneously, a figure shrouded in a black robe emerged from the dark forest, facing him from afar.
"Lust Demon King?"
Looking at the black-robed figure seemingly afraid to get closer, Lynn tentatively asked.
This was the territory of the Lust Demon Kingdom, and anyone able to hide under his nose must not be an ordinary demon. There was a good chance it was the master here, the Lust Demon King. But with their body covered so thoroughly, not revealing an inch of skin, hiding their face and even wearing a black silk blindfold, they seem less like the Great Demon symbolizing lust.
"It is indeed I."
The Lust Demon King gave a distant bow to Lynn, lightly bending their body under the robe, though no body shape could be discerned through the loose garment.
"You dare to come meet me alone? Are you not afraid I’ll kill you?"
Lynn accepted the Lust Demon King’s bow with a nonchalant air, frowning slightly at their get-up, showing a hint of disapproval.
Even the lowly Enchanting Demon earlier was dressed alluringly, with most of her sun-kissed skin exposed, an image of a mature sister in tattered clothes. But why is it when it comes to their leader, they’re covered head to toe like this? Where is the lust or desire in that? A misnamed Demon King, I look down on you!
"You were able to have a pleasant conversation with the Proud Demon King and agreed to consider our sisters’ proposal, so I presume you wouldn’t attack me. I came in person to demonstrate the sincerity of us seven sisters. I hope the Demon Emperor will accept our proposal, ensuring mutual benefits. Besides the conditions agreed upon with the Proud Demon King, I can privately offer you additional incentives."
Although the Lust Demon King was cryptic, her sincerity was apparent. With only 700 levels, even standing a hundred meters away from Lynn meant imminent death. Yet she dared to take the risk and appear, suggesting additional terms to those agreed with the Proud Demon King, making her intentions clear.
"Oh? What kind of incentives? Let’s hear it."
Feeling a bit sulky due to the lack of qualifying appeal... uh, the Lust Demon King, Lynn seemed somewhat uninterested.
"Under my command, I have three thousand Enchanting Demons, and you can..."
"Deal! It’s a promise!"
Just as the Lust Demon King was about to state that her offer was for the Demon Emperor to select a hundred top-grade Enchanting Demons for his harem, but before she could finish, the previously indifferent Demon Emperor immediately jumped at her words.
"You this..."
The sudden interruption left the Lust Demon King speechless for a moment.
Shouldn’t you reconsider? Those are three thousand Enchanting Demons, which can’t be compared to the three thousand beauties in the human emperor’s harem...
The finest Enchanting Demons, aren’t they all captivating sirens? Anyone daring to provoke one ends up as essence residue. Even the mighty Demon Dragon Emperor dared only to keep a dozen or so in his palace in the past.
No matter how much stronger you are, Demon Emperor, than the Late Emperor Demon Dragon Emperor, you can’t overreach like this, especially since as a Near God of the Human Race, your physique might not be as robust as the Demon Dragon Emperor from the Demon Dragon Race...
Her original intent in gifting one hundred top-grade Enchanting Demons was to ensnare Lynn, the superficial Demon Emperor, making him a slave to lust, allowing the seven sisters to manipulate him.
But little did she anticipate, he’s not here to be a slave to desire; he’s here to court death... truly pursuing his own demise.
"What? Want to back out? Let’s see if my saber agrees!"
Seeing the Lust Demon King’s hesitation, Lynn immediately pulled out a massive 40-meter-long saber, the fighting spirit in its blade exerting distant pressure on the Lust Demon King’s neck.
Observing the Demon Emperor wielding such a comedic oversized weapon, the Lust Demon King found herself both amused and baffled. Despite the enhancement from Near God Fighting Spirit, its comedic design couldn’t threaten her life. The Demon Emperor just seemed to be intimidating her, anticipating her backing out.
"It’s not that I wish to retract, but I’m afraid the Demon Emperor might regret it later..."
The Lust Demon King cooperatively raised her hands in surrender. Three thousand it is. Once he devours fifteen or so, he’ll realize his limits. By then, she won’t need to retract the offer; he’ll naturally learn to be sensible and not overindulge.
"It’s settled then! Send two for a taste soon, and let’s keep the remaining two thousand nine hundred ninety-eight on credit for now!"
Saying this, Lynn retracted his 40-meter saber, transforming it back into a 900-level Holy Artifact Dagger. The Lust Demon King, unfazed by the massive saber earlier, felt a sudden itch on her neck at the sight of the retracting dagger, as if she’d just had her head chopped off and tender flesh was now sprouting.
