The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 289 Sylvia's Disaster
"Oh my, it seems that the little brother from the Crimson Demon Clan has brought something incredible. I was so surprised that I didn't know what to say."

"You're lying. You obviously know everything."

Vanir's expression of pretending to be surprised was a little annoying, and Zun Zun didn't hesitate to expose him. You are all thousand-year-old vixen, what are you playing with me?
"Don't pretend you didn't hear me, you bastard!"

There was a roar.

Zun Zun lowered his head and looked at the gadgets on the counter.

The creature in front of him, about the length of his index finger and the thickness of a small wooden stick, which looked like a super-small snake-shaped toy, was none other than Sylvia, a cadre of the Demon King's Army who had wreaked havoc in the Crimson Devil's Village.

As for why he appeared here, it all started from the time when Zun Zun was fighting with Sylvia.

When Zun Zun used Kamehameha to kill him, everyone thought the battle was over, but they accidentally discovered that a miniature Sylvia was crawling out of his dead body, so they brought him back out of curiosity.

it's wired.

The adventurer card clearly shows that the Demon King's Army General Sylvia has been defeated, but he is still alive and well. Could it be because his true form is a synthetic beast?

The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

“You… wait, wait, you…! Vanir!? You, aren’t you Vanir? Hey, even though the mask on your head is a little different, you are Vanir, right? Quick, hurry up and catch this guy!”

When Sylvia saw Vanir, she immediately screamed.

Vanir stroked his chin.

"Hmm... it's a bit noisy, which will greatly reduce the value of the goods."

He actually treats the Demon King's army officers as commodities. He is already a qualified businessman. No, considering that Vanir is a demon, should we say that he has regained his nature?

"Mr. Banier, what do you think of him?"

"The most we can give is 1 million eris."

"Isn't 1 million a bit too little? He is a general in the Demon King's Army, and his bounty is as high as 3 million."

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. He is no longer a member of the Demon King's Army. If it weren't for the fact that his true form is a synthetic beast and is of great research value, we wouldn't have spent such a huge price to buy him."

The two of them carried out the transaction as if no one was around, and as the one being bought and sold, Sylvia looked horrified.

“Hey, hey… What are you talking about, Vanir? You are Vanir, a cadre of the Demon King’s Army, right? How can you trade with humans? And… this pink apron you’re wearing is really weird! Are you a clerk in a store somewhere!?”

"That's correct! Actually, I have resigned from my position as a cadre in the Demon King's Army and have become an ordinary clerk in this magic tool store! From now on, please take good care of me."

"what!?"

Sylvia made a sword demon sound.

It was normal for him not to know. After all, he received the mission to harass the Crimson Devil Village earlier than Vanir, so he didn't know anything about Vanir's later experience in Axel and acting. Naturally, he didn't know that Vanir actually faked his death and escaped, and became an ordinary clerk in a magic tool store.

"Vanil, have you betrayed the Demon King!?"

"That's wrong. I didn't betray the Demon King. I just made a promise with him that if I died, I would no longer be a member of the Demon King's army and live for myself. Look, this is the proof."

Vanir pointed to the number Ⅱ on the mask.

"Are you kidding me?"

As expected, Sylvia couldn't accept such an absurd statement.

"Yeah, it's too noisy."

Vanir picked up a glass bottle, put Sylvia in it and turned it upside down on the counter, so that Sylvia could only make muffled sounds when she kept hitting the bottle.

"Okay, let's continue to discuss the price. Let's be frank. The maximum price we can offer is 1.5 million Eris. Any more will not be cost-effective. If you agree, then it's a deal. If you don't agree, we won't raise the price."

"Well... never mind, I won't sell it."

"Oh?"

He seemed surprised that the Venerable with hundreds of millions of Eris could still maintain his integrity, and then he spoke again.

"What's the reason?"

"I'm not short of money... Of course, this is just one reason. Another reason is that considering your partner, Vanir, is most likely a dangerous organization like the Demon King's Army. In order to prevent Sylvia from causing me more trouble, it's better not to sell it for now."

"Oh my, I've been seen through. The Demon King always says he hates Sylvia for wanting to merge with him, but if I tell him about this, he will bleed profusely without hesitation. What a pity."

Vanir openly admitted that he just wanted to make a deal with the Demon King's army and then blackmail them.

Is this guy really a cadre of the Demon King's Army?

One blackmailed the Demon King's army, and the other always stole the Demon King's army's military funds to fill his own magic tool shop. This is really a pair of shop owners and employees...

“Hey, speaking of which, where’s Wiz?”

"That stupid shopkeeper is going to..."

"I'm back, Mr. Vanir. I don't know if it's my imagination, but I think Mr. Beldia's head seems to have gotten bigger from being soaked in water. Should we get him a bigger fish tank?"

"As you can see, I went to change the water in the fish tank."

Although Zun Zun asked Wiz to change the water for the Dullahan every day before he left, it was just to scare him and prevent him from escaping. Who would have thought that Wiz actually changed the water for him every day.

How much do you hate the Dullahan? Or is it out of kindness? Not good, that would be even scarier.

"Ah, Zun Zun! Welcome!" "Hello, Miss Weiss, you look well."

When Wiz saw him, he walked over quickly with a happy look on his face and put the fish tank on the counter.

"Thanks to Mr. Vanir, the magic tools finally made a profit for the first time after a long period of losses. I am really touched! It is also thanks to your potion, Zun Zun. Thank you so much!"

Zun Zun accepted her thanks.

In fact, it is true. If it weren't for her energy potion divided into 3 layers, Wiz would not have been able to hold on until now.

"Zun Zun, you are here this time... Hey, what is this?"

Wiz noticed the glass bottle on the counter and Sylvia, who had fainted from lack of oxygen, and quickly ran over to open the bottle.

I forgot, the bottle is quite airtight.

"Isn't this Mr. Sylvia!? Even though he has become smaller, he is Mr. Sylvia, right? Mr. Sylvia, Mr. Sylvia, are you okay? What is going on?"

Wiz looked very nervous.

Even if we take into consideration that they are colleagues, it is still unreasonable.

Zun Zun told her about the events in the Crimson Devil Village and asked, "Ms. Wiz, don't you hate it when the Demon King's army attacks ordinary people? Why are you so worried about Sylvia?"

"Well, that... the Crimson Demons go to the Demon King's Army for a picnic every year, leaving all their magic and garbage there. Plus, they come to harass and massacre a large number of the Demon King's men every once in a while..."

"Okay, you don't have to say any more."

If we continue to talk about this, the Crimson Demons will become villains. And the word "massacre" is too exaggerated, isn't it?
“Ha…ha…I thought I was going to suffocate to death…No, that’s not right! This is…!”

The tiny Sylvia slowly got up.

He showed obvious hostility when he saw Zun Zun and Banil, but he soon discovered a third person.

“Wiz!?”

"Yes, it's me. Long time no see, Mr. Sylvia."

“Wiz, hurry up…”

Sylvia wanted to yell for help, but quickly suppressed the thought and looked at Wiz and then at Vanir.

"Wiz, this is your shop, right? I remember when you were in the Demon King's Castle, you kept talking about opening a magic tool shop. And every time your shop was about to go out of business, you would secretly steal money from the Demon King's Castle treasury to subsidize the shop. The Demon King was really troubled by this matter."

“Waaaaaah! Mr. Sylvia, please don’t say such embarrassing things! No, no, Mr. Vanir…!”

Wiz was extremely anxious.

It's okay, Ms. Weisz, we already know your talent (negative) in running a store, so we won't laugh at you.

And Sylvia finally understood why Vanir had just called himself a clerk, and she didn't say anything else... Impossible! He soon saw the headless knight in the fish tank.

No, it's the Headless Knight with only his head left.

“Beldia? Hey… Isn’t this Beldia? How come he is here? I remember the Demon King said he lost his trace in Axel, how come… only his head is left? Could it be that you guys teamed up to fight against the Demon King’s army…”

The more Sylvia thought about it, the more scared she became.

He looked at the three tall men with red eyes and trembled with fear. Although he didn't know what they wanted to do, it seemed that they had a big plan!
Zun Zun suddenly discovered something.

"It seems that all the Demon King's Army officers I met are here."

“…Huh? Ah, that’s true.”

“Well, Wiz, I, Beldia, Hans, Sylvia… the Demon King’s Army officers you met are indeed all here, but except for the stupid shop owner, the rest are all former Demon King’s Army officers.”

Hearing the conversation between the three people, Sylvia's face tightened.

He couldn't figure out what was going on. It was fine if they were plotting against the Demon King's Army, but the mastermind behind this had actually reached out to the Demon King's Army cadres, and even Vanir and Wiz had been turned against them. That was really something! ... Wait, Hans? Hans from the Toxic Slime?
You know, Slime can grow bigger by swallowing objects, and Hans, a cadre of the Demon King's army, is even more powerful. If he relies on the opponent's ability to grow bigger and then merges with it, wouldn't he be able to escape successfully?
"Hans? Hey, where's Hans!?"

"Where? Isn't it right here?"

"I didn't see it!"

"here."

"——————!?"

Seeing Zun Zun pulling at his clothes, Sylvia felt an extreme sense of uneasiness in his heart, and he opened his mouth and spoke in an extremely thirsty and hoarse voice.

"You, you, you gave Hans to..."

"That's right. I made it into clothes and put it on. Slime clothes are really good, warm in winter and cool in summer, and have excellent defense. A small number of adventurers like them very much. Unfortunately, probably because slime is not very good, female adventurers are more resistant to it."

The fact that the Demon King's army cadres were made into clothes completely shocked Sylvia's worldview.

"You...are a demon."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Zun Zun's smile was so kind that it was scary.
