Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 124 Her Reasons
Lastina has been doing very good business recently.

Moher handed over the financial management of the mansion to Lastina, though she, of course, had her own personal stash. She left Lastina to run the mansion herself, simply wanting to grow some grapes for wine. She maintained her status as the owner of a mansion in her small town.

But Lastina is now doing business in a very drastic way.

There was nothing to worry about after all.

Could it be that someone else in the world had a more powerful background than her own? When doing business, not having to worry about other people's underhanded tactics was already a reassuring thing. In the business world, Lastina was confident that she couldn't lose to anyone, but what if someone wanted to physically destroy her?

Don't worry about your life! I'm working for the Demon King, the Hero! Do you think you've lived too long? Finding a place to hang yourself is definitely more cost-effective than offending the Demon King.

After all, in a sense, if you offend the devil, it will be difficult to die.

Of course, Lastina didn't act rashly. While Lisiduowei and Dora have not moved out yet, she would take one of them with her when she goes out to do business, so her safety would be guaranteed.

But Moh gave her a business.

"You should go to the Elf Kingdom. It should be around the same time. The elves should be able to produce Life Dew. See if you can get it."

Dewdrop of life.

It's impossible for any businessman not to have heard of this thing. Sword Saint A. Sion possesses the power of eternal youth like the elves because he used the Life Dew in his youth. Although this thing can't truly make people eternally young, it can indeed prolong a person's life and keep you young.

It sounds quite different from the Demon King's eternity... but who can covet the Demon King?
Life Dew is a very rare item, and most of the time, it will not be passed on to other races. It is used by the elves themselves.

The elves rarely take this thing out for trade.

Even if I want to trade it, I definitely can't buy it myself.

Lastina was about to say so, but seeing Moher's look, she suddenly realized that whether or not she could buy it wasn't that important. What mattered was what the Demon King wanted to do with this matter. If memory served me correctly, in the Elven Kingdom, beneath the so-called Elven Mother Tree, an organ of the Demon King sank to the bottom of the pool, seemingly symbolizing the "liver" of magic.

Is this her purpose?

Lastina didn't dare to speculate rashly. After all, regarding the matter of the Demon King... she couldn't guarantee that her guess would be correct.

Speaking of magic... Speaking of which, the battlefield of the Ice and Snow Kingdom seems to be—

This is somewhat inconsistent with Mohe's style. Judging from the events in Butuo City, if we review them beforehand, we will find that Mohe had made full preparations when she went to Kenku Island alone for the first time. The subsequent development of events was completely within her expectations. The only difference was the change in her own ideas.

But at this time, the war in the Ice and Snow Kingdom was about to begin, but she asked herself to go to the Elf Kingdom to trade. The journey alone took too much time. What was she thinking?
"I'll try my best."

That was all she could say.

"Then please."

……

Sage Adriana. Lives in a place called the Sage's Tower.

As a magician's guild that brings together "nobles", this organization is extremely wealthy and powerful. In order to seal the devil's horns, they built this great creation specifically.

Moreover, the private land of the Magicians' Guild was even larger than that of Kenku Island. Magicians were entitled to build their own mansions here, bring their own servants, and still live a comfortable life.

Many nobles would come here and study magic carefully after handing over things to their descendants.

At this moment, lightning flashed and fell directly into the Tower of Sages.

"Thunder Emperor, I remember you were on your way to attack the Ice and Snow Kingdom. Why did you suddenly come to the guild? What do you want to do?"

Although his name is the domineering Thunder Emperor, the man who appeared in Adriana's office along with thunder and lightning was a blond man who looked quite weak and even wore glasses.

Generally speaking, most magicians are of this style.

"Adriana, what are you thinking? You're supporting the Snow Elves, right?"

Adriana put down the quill in her hand: "If you think I am supporting you, then you need to provide evidence."

"I've already gone to see the snow elves' preparations. Those magic circles are not of the snow elves' style."

"More than a decade ago, when the alliance was fighting the Demon King together, they shared what they had. Back then, it was like the snow elves sharing their magical research results. Is it strange that others would use them?" Adriana returned her gaze to the document in her hands. "If that's what you want to talk about, then I don't have time to chat with you."

Arcs of electricity flickered around the Thunder Emperor: "Adriana, do you really think you are so strong that you are invincible?"

"I don't know whether I am invincible or not. If you think you are invincible, you can give it a try. Has the title of Thunder Emperor made you lose yourself and think you can look down on the Demon King?" Almost in an instant, the terrifying thunder and lightning submerged the entire room like an ocean.

However, after the arc dissipated, Adriana remained calm at her desk, her quill still twitching as she flipped through documents, making decisions. "Are you done with your fuss? If you are, don't bother me with my work. The Magician's Guild President has a lot on his plate. It all has something to do with you."

"It's best if you really have nothing to do with the snow elves."

Thunder Emperor snorted coldly and disappeared along with thunder and lightning.

Adriana stopped working on the documents, and for the first time a serious expression appeared in her eyes, because outside her window, there was a pitch-black crow.

"Demon King?"

"Oh~ As expected of the Sage, you have such a sharp intuition."

"I don't think anyone other than the Demon King could create a creature that can be reborn after being electrocuted by the Thunder Emperor."

Adriana's expression was different from when she treated the Thunder Emperor just now. She was quite serious.

"Don't be so wary. This creature doesn't have any advantages other than immortality. If you're interested, I can give it to you for research. I heard you've already set up a trap, waiting for me to come and retrieve my horn. Aren't you supposed to be excited about my arrival?"

The crow tilted its head, and there seemed to be some doubt in its dark eyes.

"No matter how confident I am in dealing with you, after the defeat of Shadi and Adeline, I should at least learn my lesson and be more vigilant against you, Demon King. If I were you, I wouldn't act so clever."

"Alas, wisdom and intelligence are so difficult to conceal. If you want to hide your intelligence, you have to pretend to be stupid, try to guess their thoughts, and become one with them. That's really a very uncomfortable thing. I'm the Demon King, and I won't let myself be wronged like this."

"So, what are you doing here?"

"I just came to see you and have a question for you. This is very important to me."

"Do you think I'll answer?"

Crow nodded. "Perhaps? I actually want to know the reason why you betrayed A. Godora. If Shati, the Wise King, attacked A. Godora for the benefit of humanity, and Adeline was half-deceived, A. Sion made an inexplicable move out of his own stupidity, and In-Nifede was related to the situation of the cursers... what's your motive? Whether A. Godora exists or not doesn't seem to have any impact on you."

Adriana, regardless of whether A. Godola was eliminated or not, would remain the president of the Magicians' Guild. The nature of the Magicians' Guild—which determined whether the Hero existed or not—would make no difference. After all, this was different from the Alchemists' Guild, which had a strong need for development.

The most important thing for this organization is stability. Rather, as the president of the Magicians' Guild, attacking A. Godola is not a reasonable thing to do. It will only bring instability.

This question is actually a very heart-wrenching one.

But Adriana's expression was very calm. "Don't you know best why we attacked him? Demon King, the reason is no different from the reason we killed you."

"Huh? Are you really worried that he'll turn into another demon king?"

"I'm not worried about him turning into another demon king... This matter has nothing to do with his own will. He will definitely become another you."

The crow laughed, a very unpleasant and harsh laugh.

"What an interesting answer, Adriana. You're much more interesting than I thought. If Godora and I were dead, would you immediately take action against Shadi and Adeline? After all, they also have terrifying plans, and sooner or later they'll become another us."

"If they have the potential to succeed."

"I didn't see the Magicians' Guild take any action in the Butuo City incident."

"If she succeeds in Bhutto City, I will not allow her the possibility of occupying other places."

The crow looked at Adriana deeply, then turned into an ordinary crow.

Adriana knew that the devil had left the crow.

She reached out and grabbed the crow. She crushed it, then watched it reassemble.

Many small seals appeared, just as Moher said, and she gave the crow to Adriana for research.

Mo He in the mansion sighed softly: "So there are people who think this way!"

Her expression was a little lonely.
