Fulilian: The Little Master Who Doesn't Understand Love

Chapter 179 The Demons Attack Again

Watching Celia disappear at the door, Lord let out a long sigh and felt his back was wet with sweat.

The emergency response just now was even more exhausting than dealing with a group of demons.

"I finally managed to fool him." He wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, still feeling a lingering fear.

Even he himself thought that the reason of raising her as a daughter was nonsense, but he didn't expect that he could really fool Celie.

His feelings for Volame were simply a desire to meet the legendary magician in history, without any personal desires.

The reason why I treat her extra well is just human nature.

Just like when people see a cute person, they will subconsciously pay more attention to the other person and take better care of the other person.

But I didn't expect that I would be misunderstood by Celie.

He shook his head, clearing away his chaotic thoughts.

The most urgent thing is to say goodbye to the Lord of Bahrain.

He stood up and quickly walked out of the room, but he didn't know that Celie didn't go far away, but stood not far away, watching Lord leave.

Those golden eyes did not move away until they could no longer see the other person's figure, still filled with unresolved confusion and a hint of vigilance that she herself had not even noticed.

"Daughter..." She repeated the word in an inaudible voice.

Why do humans regard beings who are not their own blood relatives as their own children?
Celia couldn't understand.

Human emotions are indeed complex and difficult to understand.

But for some reason, she had a vague feeling that the most important thing to her was being coveted by others, and might even be taken away.

This feeling made her very uncomfortable.

The most important thing to you.
Is it magic? Or something else?
Celia didn't know either.

Time passed in oppressive silence.

On the other hand, Lord recalled that all the information about the current Emperor of the El Empire, Al Fidel, was learned from Bahrain.

Given his abilities, he might have been a good ruler in peacetime. But with the demons now at war and humans beginning to experience civil unrest, could he maintain his legacy and protect the holy sword?
Lord didn't dare to gamble.

Demons are very cunning creatures. Once they disguise themselves, they are difficult to identify.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Lord felt.

Thousands of years of peace seemed to have made humans and even the entire continent relax their vigilance too much.

Although his participation in this life has prevented the elves from becoming as rare as in the original novel, their decline is inevitable.

At some point, the sky began to turn pale, and the first rays of dawn quietly appeared.

The dwarf city lord Balin was dealing with the complicated affairs of post-war reconstruction. When he heard Lord coming to say goodbye, he immediately put down what he was doing.

"Lord Balin," Lord said without further ado, getting straight to the point. "Thank you for your hospitality, but we have to leave."

The smile on Balin's face froze instantly. "Leaving? Now? Sir Ade, why is this happening? Is it because we haven't treated you well enough?"

He rubbed his rough hands nervously, his eyes full of confusion.

Lady Celia is currently the most powerful being in their city. If they leave, what if the demons return...

"No, Your Excellency the City Lord has misunderstood." Although he wanted to complain to His Excellency Ade, Lord held back and spoke quickly, "It's just that it's been so long and there's no sign of the demons appearing. Moreover, we've received news from the Southern Unified Empire and the Aiel Empire that demons seem to have appeared there as well."

Balin frowned. "I have heard that demons have brazenly appeared within the territory of the Southern Unified Empire." As a city with ties to the Land of El, Balin was also aware of the situation there, and his intelligence was clearly more detailed.

"That's troublesome," Lord said emphatically. "The demons are very cunning. They haven't shown any unusual behavior recently. I'm worried their real target isn't here, but somewhere else. So we have to rush over to confirm the situation."

Balin saw the unprecedented solemnity on Lord's face and knew that he was determined to leave.

He sighed and said, "I understand! Lord Ade, we dwarves will never forget your kindness to White Castle! Please be careful."

"Okay, I know."

Balin wanted to say something more and arrange for the farewell, but was suddenly interrupted by an urgent message.

"Lord Balin!!!"

A dwarf warrior rushed in, not even bothering to salute, and shouted hoarsely: "Oh no! A large number of monsters have appeared outside the castle, and there are even figures of demons!"

"What!?"

The huge body of the Lord of Bahrain swayed and he almost lost his balance.

He didn't expect that the demons would actually make a comeback, and this time, the scouts also mentioned the presence of the demons.

This means that this army of monsters will be more difficult to deal with.

Lord's heart tightened.

He didn't expect that just when he decided to leave, this group of demons launched an attack.

Is it a coincidence? Or did the other party notice something?
"How many demons are there?" Lord stepped forward and stared at the panicked dwarf warrior.

The dwarf, intimidated by Lord's aura, calmed himself down a bit and reported quickly, breathing heavily, "There are at least twelve leading demons. Three of them are particularly large, and even the magical aura on their bodies is stronger than that of the other demons."

Three great demons!
Obviously, this group of demons are serious about this. Unlike last time, this time they are an organized and premeditated, real siege army.

The enormous pressure weighed on the shoulders of the Lord of Bahrain like a physical object.

This city alone cannot possibly resist this horde of monsters.

Although they had asked for help from the Dwarf Kingdom long before, it would take time for the other party to send out troops.

Now, they can only place their hopes on Lord in front of them, or rather, the legendary magician Celie behind him.

Lord took a deep breath, and all the thoughts in his mind were instantly replaced by anger.

Lure the tiger away from the mountain? Or is it to buy time?

very good!

No matter which one it was, he didn't mind crushing these ignorant guys in front of him first, and letting Shulahart see what a painful price he would have to pay for his plan.

"Lord Balin!" Lord's voice was filled with a reassuring confidence. "It seems our farewell will have to be postponed a little. Since these reckless fellows are here again, we will help you crush them once and for all!"

"Sir Ade!" The Lord of Balin's voice trembled with excitement. "Thank you for your help. All the soldiers of White Castle will fight alongside you!"

The heavy sound of the horn resounded throughout the White Castle again.

Lord's figure disappeared from the spot, and with the help of space magic, he appeared directly above the entire city.

From here, you can overlook the entire battlefield.
