Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 9 Conversation in the Manor
In Baixi Town, life in this small town is quite leisurely. Mohe hired some people to build his own manor, while she sat on a stone at the entrance of the village with a fishing rod, fishing.

Of course, fishing was just a pretense. She didn't care if she caught anything; in reality, she was concentrating her Demon King Blood. After retrieving her left hand, she didn't intend to waste time. Although her goal was to catch a hero, recovering some strength was a plus. She was always on her path.

Not long after, a middle-aged man and a silver-haired old woman also came with fishing rods, sat down nearby, and started fishing.

Mohe did not communicate with them. It was their choice for these two people to follow her again. As for how they discussed with each other and what kind of complicated changes Duoluo experienced in her heart, these were not important to Mohe. She was just sure that these two people were planning to make a deal with her.

Now she is the one who is "in demand". Naturally, she can control her attitude.

Duo Luo and Li Siduowei didn't say anything either, they just fished here by themselves.

After a while...

"Do you think you're a good fisherman?"

Mo He finally couldn't help asking. She saw Duo Luo's bucket was almost full, with fish huddled together and jumping from time to time. "You guys use some special tricks to catch fish, don't you?"

"Fishing is a skill, Miss Moher," Doro said calmly. "I've observed this since arriving in this town. The fish here are a species called temporaria. They prefer corn to earthworms as bait. They also live in deeper, broken water layers, so the hook needs to be weighted. Your hook isn't that deep. And you should sway slightly to trick the fish into thinking it's alive... Miss Moher clearly took our situation into consideration when she was plotting against us, so why didn't she consider the fish's situation when fishing?"

Mo He gave him an unpleasant look and put away his fishing rod: "I'm not fishing anymore."

Doro and Lisiduo looked at each other and put away their fishing rods. They carried a bucket of fish and quickly came behind Mohe.

"Ms. Moher, we've caught a lot of fish. If you don't mind, I think we can enjoy them together. I heard that you bought a manor..."

Moh stopped and looked at the two people meaningfully.

Dora had a smile on his face.

After a moment, Mo He smiled and said, "Okay, come to my manor to deal with these things. I have enough space there. Please allow me to treat you to a meal as a reward."

The estate that Moher bought was actually a former lumberyard in town. Because all the nearby trees were cut down, the lumberyard was relocated. The land had been on the market for several years when Moher bought it. Now she plans to grow grapes there.

Just like what I said to Doro, let’s build a winery.

The manor is now half built, and Mohe also invited the people who built the manor, but they said they already had a place to eat, so they expressed their refusal.

When it was almost noon, she took out the things in the manor and began to prepare the fish caught by Duo Luo in the cleared space.

Moher had lived on her own for many years, so her cooking skills weren't bad—but that wasn't accurate. It should be said that the Demon Lord's cooking skills were quite superb. During her time as Demon Lord, her lifestyle wasn't as refined as the demons'; it was a symbol of her nobility. Even now that she was a lonely girl, she wouldn't let her standards of living decline too much, just like she kept her own home tidy. Her cooking skills weren't bad either.

The previous "Devil's Meal" wasn't a dish that showed much craftsmanship. After all, it was just a big pot of stew, so it couldn't be too bad.

Duo Luo, on the other hand, was an expert at grilling. After all, during their adventures, their group often ate all kinds of grilled meat, so Mo He left the job of grilling fish to Duo Luo, while he prepared fish soup and steamed fish.

As for the Bloody Queen? Lisiduowei was the one who had truly lived the life of an aristocrat. Whether she was under the Demon King or after joining the human race, she had never prepared her own food. But generally speaking, vampires didn't need to eat, after all, they were bloodsuckers.

Both of them were doing their own things, leaving Lisiduowei standing there awkwardly. No matter whether it was Dora or the Demon King, both of them had much nobler status than her, but they were preparing meals while she was waiting here... Just thinking about it was enough to make Lisiduowei feel uneasy. She wanted to help, but she really didn't understand.

Regarding his and Dora's affairs—they had also read the newspapers and knew what the situation was. No one knew whether they would be discovered or caught. If he could solve his life problem, he could hide in the mountains with Dora... Or, as the Demon King had said, he could marry Dora, perhaps...

"Doro, why don't you go get your beard trimmed sometime?" Moh said as he prepared. "It doesn't look good with an untidy beard."

Duo Luo flipped the fish-threaded wooden stick in his hand and touched his chin with his other hand: "It's unnecessary... This will only have the effect of hiding my appearance. No one will associate me with my past self."

Seeing he wasn't planning on trimming his beard, Mo He didn't say anything. She respected the strong. He had the freedom to choose his own appearance. In fact, Li Siduowei could be considered a useful fighting force—but Mo He didn't trust Li Siduowei. She had already betrayed him once, so Mo He assumed that Li Siduowei would betray him again. So, solving her life problem and making her loyal to him?

She was not interested in such a plan that only benefited Lisiduowei. At this stage, she had no effective way to control Lisiduowei.

Soon, a sumptuous fish feast began in this unfinished manor.

Duo Luo praised Mohe's craftsmanship highly.

"It would be nice if there was wine."

"I'm planning to turn this place into a winery," Moher said. "The wine from Baixi Town seems to be quite famous in the area. I'm planning to unite the winemakers, offer some compensation, and see if I can become the spokesperson for Baixi Town's wine. It would be best if everyone came to work for me directly."

This surprised Duo Luo: "Are you really planning to open a winery and do business?"

"What else? Do you think I'm kidding?" Moh said frankly, "It will take a long time to recover my strength, and I need a legitimate job to cover it up. You think it's incredible, but so do others. Before I recovered my strength, I was just an ordinary manor owner."

Duo Luo probably understood Moher's intention. He knew that this was Moher asking for a price, but he actually didn't have much room for bargaining: "I can help you get your right hand back."

Moher paused in her eating, not even looking up. She slowly sipped the fish soup before finally saying, "Have you thought it through? Brave Lord, if you were to say that I took back my left hand before, you could say that you were deceived, used, and cheated by me. When facing some people, you could still argue with them with confidence. Even if they don't believe you, you can still be considered upright. But if you do something like this, you are seriously helping the Demon King's resurrection and pushing this world into the abyss of the Demon King's rule."

Her words were unexpected. At least, at first, Dora thought she would let him help her get her legs back. However, she did not bargain, but asked herself "whether she had thought it through."

She was right. What happened before was completely within the Demon King's calculations. If he really accepted the deal with Moher, then he would really become a person who pushed humanity into the abyss for his own benefit, and he would really become a traitor to humanity.

Was this the Devil's way of provoking him? Duo Luo didn't know. He felt that he had thought it through, but when he met Mo He's eyes, he couldn't say it.

He couldn't help but think of the time when he fought against the Demon King. The Demon King's eyes were different then.

At that time, there was a golden magic circle in the devil's left eye that could see through reality and illusion, and there was a silver magic circle in his right eye that could transcend time and space.

Although her eyes are different, her expression is the same.

It was the same look that seemed to be looking directly into a person's heart.

He saw the sneer on Moh's face, and she said, "Eat fish."

Duo Luo felt a sense of powerlessness welling up in his heart. He once again realized that he was no longer the same person he used to be. He couldn't say with the same firmness as before, "Demon King, your rule ends here." He also couldn't firmly tell Li Siduowei, "I won't let you die."

He is no longer young, and his former vigor and vitality have long become a thing of the past. Betrayal and pain have made him numb and cowardly.

Although he still had some strength, he no longer had the determination to draw his sword.

Even if he made a deal with the Demon King to help Moch get his right hand back... could he still do it?
Can he defeat his former partner, the saint "Shati", who is guarding the right hand that symbolizes the curse?

The right and left hands of the devil are roughly equal to the devil himself, but for humans, the degree of harm is completely different. If the devil's left hand symbolizes eternity, and if left unattended and allowed to dissolve in magma, new life will be born from it, allowing the devil to be resurrected in another form, then the right hand is a devastating weapon.

The right hand symbolizes curse.

Just by leaving it there, different curses will automatically spread outward, polluting a vast area and forming a forbidden zone for life.

Therefore, the right hand was guarded by the Saint herself, who constantly applied the power of purification to the right hand to keep it stable and ensure that the curse would not spread.

Only she can do such a thing.

If he wants to help Moher get his right hand back, it means becoming an enemy of Shadi.

Today he...

Duo Luo's silence made Lisiduowei, who was eating grilled fish, become cautious. She didn't want to coerce Duo Luo, and she knew very well that Duo Luo could ignore her. It would be better to say that for Duo Luo now, the best way to deal with it was to ignore everyone, just like in the past few years, when he traveled casually and didn't even know where he would appear. He lived a life of drunkenness and dreams, eating and drinking for free, and wasting his time.

Perhaps, that state is most suitable for Dora now.

He didn't need to sit here and negotiate with Mo He, and there was no need to think too much about her.

There was no need for him to betray humanity for his own sake. Lisiduowei knew clearly that she didn't hold such a high position in Duoluo's heart; he was just being kind, so he couldn't let her go. The so-called "favor" had already been repaid.

Moher hadn't expected Duoluo's behavior. This man wouldn't betray humanity lightly. She knew the time hadn't come yet. Humanity had given up on this hero, but this hero hadn't truly given up on humanity. This wasn't good news for Moher. After all—even though he'd said he wouldn't care about her resurrection, if he hadn't given up on humanity... who knew, he might once again stand before her, blocking her path.

Moher didn't want to coerce the brave man now, and then one day he would suddenly "wake up," repent, realize that "I still love humans after all," and then turn around and stab himself with the sword.

She didn't want this to happen, so what she wanted to do was to make the hero make a final decision and completely give up on humanity, instead of coming to her with half-hearted determination to make a deal like he was now. That was not what she wanted.

That's why she "persuaded him kindly" to make the brave man "think clearly" and choose her sincerely.

She used to dislike using her intelligence and didn't want to think about various problems.

That was because she had been so powerful in the past, but now the situation was different. When she was weak, wisdom was essential for survival. Fortunately, although she had died once, she had left behind a large legacy. Putting her own body aside, knowledge was also a form of power. When combined with wisdom, it often produced unexpected results.

Play slowly.

Both the brave and Lisiduowei must become their own strength.

The smile on her face gradually grew stronger. "Well, do you have anything to do this afternoon? I'm planning to go shopping. The manor is still short of a lot of things. If you're free, come with me to take a look. I'll take a look and see what your tastes are."

Mo He's calm performance made the two people's thoughts more complicated. This girl was always calm and unhurried... The psychological pressure she brought to people was not ordinary.

"Then I'll go get ready and change my clothes. Don't worry, just eat slowly."

Moh stood up, leaving the two of them alone.

She won't show up until they have an agreement.
