Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 75 The Desire of Founding a Nation

Ever since the Alchemist Association took over the former sacred city of Naluen, the association's reputation in the world has been greatly enhanced.

This reputation was built on the back of the church, and inevitably it was subject to rejection by the church. Even without the church's leadership making any decisions, many local churches had already begun to instinctively reject the items produced by the Alchemist Association.

For example, clergymen consciously refrain from using alchemical tools.

This actually created an atmosphere within the church: As a clergyman, if you use alchemical tools, do you think the Alchemist Association is right? If you think the Alchemist Association is right, you must be a traitor... A similar atmosphere gradually permeated the church, to the point that anyone who wanted to have a good career within the church would actively avoid suspicion.

Thus, an atmosphere gradually became an unwritten rule.

This change hasn't really affected the interests of the Alchemist Association yet, but with the influence of the White Church, sooner or later...

Of course, this has nothing to do with Naluen at the moment.

Adeline sat on a chair, with the shadows of several other people projected in front of her.

"Adeline, you sent us this little toy, and it turns out to be a super-long-distance projection prop—I think this itself is also a product based on the reflection of the world, right?"

Adriana's projection was shaking, and it was obvious that she was fiddling with the small toy in front of her. "Or is it that the Alchemist Association is so prosperous now that it thought of us at this time?"

Also appearing in the projection was Yin Nifede of the Curse Master Alliance. However, unlike the previous meeting, Xia Di did not attend this time. Although Adeline had also sent a letter, Xia Di had obviously not accepted it.

"If I don't have anything to do, can't I just come to you? Sister Adriana, Sister Nefede." Adeline smiled sweetly. "We used to have such a good relationship. I still remember when we went on adventures, and you always cuddled me like a pillow to sleep. We used to be so close, but do you have to have some ulterior motive for wanting to see me now?"

When Adriana heard her words, the projection stopped shaking. Apparently, she was no longer observing the props. A smile began to appear on her face. "Of course, with the relationship between us, we can contact each other even without anything happening."

As she spoke, she opened her arms and pretended to hug: "If you want now, you can also throw yourself into my arms~ I will comfort you gently."

"Ah~ Sister, I am so touched. I wish I could be by your side right now and throw myself into your arms."

Yin Nifede's expression was impassive. She watched the two people's "intimate" interaction and said in an icy voice, "So, if that's what you're talking about, then I'll be leaving. You can reminisce about the past. I don't have the time to chat with you."

"Sister Nifed is so anxious... I clearly remember you being the patient type, the type who looks very cold but actually watches everyone with tenderness—is there something urgent you need to attend to?"

"This has nothing to do with you, right?"

Adeline showed a sad expression and sighed, "Well, I was hoping to catch up with you sisters, but now that things have come to this, I can only talk about business. After all, you sisters only want to hear business now."

Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair. "You should all know that what Xia Di did this time was projected to the whole world by the Abinu Mirror. Sister Adriana's words about this little prop being based on the world projection were somewhat joking. You clearly know that this thing is a product of the Abinu Mirror. The purpose of the world projection is different."

"Sister, I only know about magic, not alchemy. So, now that the Mirror of Abinu has fallen into your hands, you are truly extraordinary. This alchemical tool caused us a lot of trouble back then. Your current strength is no less than that of the four great kings of the Demon King's army. I'm sure you'll be quite powerful when you wield it."

Unlike the previous meetings chaired by Xia Di, Adriana was always in a very good mood. She always had a smile on her face.

Yin Nifede did not make any comment on this.

"This item is in my hands now. Over the years, I've restored the Sky Fortress and created World Reflection. I also have the Demon King's lungs, which symbolize alchemy." Adeline suddenly began to take stock of the cards in her hand. "I plan to meet A. Godora."

Upon hearing this name, Adriana and In-Nifed's pupils dilated, a moment of hesitation evident. "At this point, are you going to see him to gain his help? I heard he's allied with the resurrected Demon King. Are you planning to join forces with him as well?" Adriana's smile now looked even more fake to Adelin, and her words made it hard to discern her true feelings.

This Sister Adriana, constantly hanging out with the nobles, was truly a man of deep thoughts. It was difficult to judge, but she wouldn't change her mind. "United Demon King? Don't say that! If anyone heard, I'd become a target of public criticism. I'd also be labeled a traitor to humanity—a traitor to the United Races. Speaking of the United Races, Sister, you seem to be on good terms with the elves lately? Sister Nifide seems to be collaborating with the dwarves, too."

"Aren't there many races in the Alchemist Association? It's hard to say which race an association of our nature is united with, right? There should be no national or racial prejudice in the association." Adriana said without a single mistake.

"This is really heartbreaking, sister. There are only three of us here. Are you afraid that I'll use the same method I used on Xia Di against you? Is this the extent of our friendship?"

Adriana continued to smile. "How could that be? But I sincerely believe this, Adeline. Do you have a different opinion? Is there any distinction between countries or races within your Alchemist Association?"

It's really hard to talk to her.

"I don't think this topic is our main point today. The main point is, I want to ask you two sisters, what do you think of A. Godola? You two sisters were also involved in that incident back then. Although I really want to say that I have nothing to do with it, there is actually no way to deny it. Even if I go to him to prove my innocence, he probably won't believe me. He attacked Xia Di before, and he will attack us one day. What are you going to do?"

On this question, the taciturn En Nifede answered more quickly than Adriana: "If he comes, let him come. If he wants to fight, let him fight. He has failed to fulfill the agreement between us."

Both women looked at Yin Nifede.

They were not unaware of this question. When A. Godora arrived at the area where the curse masters were, he told them, "Curse masters can also live under the sun in the future."

Yin Nifede brought all the curse masters to form the Curse Master Alliance and joined the coalition forces to fight against the Demon King - even though the power of curse is usually believed to come from the Demon King, although anyone can learn and practice it.

But after the war...

They probably have different perceptions.

A. Godora felt that he had fulfilled his promise to Yin Nifede. Although curse masters still faced some unfair treatment, it was much better than before. He said to Yin Nifede, "If we want to change the world's view of curse masters, we need the curse masters to work together with us, do more good things, and make curses beneficial to the world. In this way, curse masters will definitely be able to get rid of this name."

However, in Yin Nifede's cognition, these were A. Godora's words to shirk responsibility. She believed that A. Godora did not really fulfill his original promise, and he did not stand firmly on the side of the Curse Master - this was a logic that made sense when the Brave Team still existed.

In fact, the two remaining people present are not stupid.

Yin Nifede wasn't some lovestruck damsel, a simple character who turned evil after being betrayed by the one she loved. If that were her true nature, why wouldn't she even ask the person she loved? Wouldn't she give them time or the chance? She'd cooperated with Xia Di's plan...was she now going to come out and claim she'd been deceived by Xia Di?

Inwardly, Adeline scoffed at Yin Nifede's words, but outwardly, she nodded in agreement. "There may be some misunderstanding, but your attitude is reassuring. Continuing with the previous topic... After meeting Godora, if I don't die, I plan to establish a country."

This is the truly shocking news.

Adriana even slammed the table: "Do you know what you are saying?"

"I know exactly what I'm talking about. I want to establish the Alchemy Nation," Adeline said bluntly. "The gap between an association and a nation is incomparable. Even an organization as tightly structured as the White Church performed far worse than the Human Central Empire in this incident. In a sense, Xia Di was forced to give up her position as Saint, but the Wise King of the Human Central Empire, who led the legion, was barely affected. The Human Central Empire remains as powerful as ever."

She clenched her fists. "If we want to provide someone with protection and a foundation for survival, an association alone won't work. We need to become a sufficiently independent and powerful nation... What do you think?"

Adriana's eyes were deep. "There's no point in telling us this, right? The Magicians' Guild can't possibly establish a nation. Do you think I'll support you?"
