Frilian: Starting with Wind Spirit and Moon Shadow, Playing Through the Heavens

"Let's discuss it again, let's discuss it again."

He knew perfectly well that everything he possessed, including the victory he had just won, was a gift from his master.

If I actually went to Carrion's country, I might be beaten to death on the spot.

This is not the outcome he wanted.

One must have self-awareness.

Ronan stood at a distance, watching the crowd gradually leave and the arena slowly return to calm. He nodded in satisfaction.

"Hmm, not bad."

It's good that the conflict was resolved; the Lion King learned his lesson.

Regardless of who instigated them to target Frey, it's all in the past now.

Because the existence of the traitor has been exposed.

With these thoughts in mind, Ronan vanished from the spot in a flash.

……

A moment later, in the palace's drawing room, Milim lay on the sofa, eating grapes, her tone leisurely:

"Exactly, that guy Clayman is way too arrogant."

"They said that all the winged races except you were no match for you, and that Carion could defeat them all by himself, but in the end, he was the one who got defeated."

Milim made no attempt to conceal her presence behind the scenes, after all, in her view, Clayman's fate was utterly irrelevant.

Since he did such a thing, he must bear the corresponding consequences.

"..."

Frey snorted inwardly upon hearing this, a look of disgust flashing across her face.

It's him again. What is it about me that he dislikes? Why is he targeting me like this?

Could it be that he has his eye on the resources of the Tianyi Kingdom and wants to profit from them?

What an annoying guy.

Frey crossed her arms, looked sharply at Milim, and asked:

"Besides instigating you to turn against me, did he do anything else, such as revealing my existence to the human empire?"

“No, not at all.” Milim tilted her head, pressed a finger to her lips, thought seriously for a moment, and then said.

"He is, after all, a demon king. Under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that he would join forces with humans to deal with a demon king. Unless there is no other way, Guy will not let him go easily."

"Of course, this is only in light of the current situation; no one can predict what will happen in the future."

Milim shrugged, a nonchalant expression on her face.

Then,

"By the way, who's backing you? Is it Guy? If it's him, you have absolutely no reason to be afraid of that Kreman."

"I'm not afraid of him, it's just that our master doesn't like trouble. As his subordinates, we should naturally share his burdens."

Frey's tone was firm, and a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.

"Now that we know it was Klayman who was behind this, things are much easier."

“He has targeted my Tianyi Kingdom time and time again, and I will make him pay the price.”

“Milim, could you please not tell Kreman about this? I’m afraid he’ll find out beforehand and escape from the puppet state.”

Although it's said that you can run away from your master but not your temple, it's really annoying to have a pesky fly buzzing around you all day long.

Milim agreed without hesitation, and smiled innocently:

"Sure, no problem. But Frey, shouldn't we get some kind of compensation for keeping this a secret?"

"Hmm... I remember, it was called hush money."

"I'm not greedy. I don't ask for much. I just want to meet the person you were chatting with earlier."

At this point, Milim paused, her curiosity deepening.

"He... I'm not sure if he's male or female, but he should be your master, right?"

"Is it really not Guy?"

Milim trusted her intuition; there must have been a third person in the room just now.

The more the other party kept their secret, the more interested she became.

So much so that after saying those words, his eyes began to scan the room, trying to find something.

Frey was speechless for a moment when she saw Milim's persistent look.

She gently touched her forehead and sighed.

"I said, do we really have to dig to the bottom of things?"

"So what if you know who my master is?"

"Milim, you should just give up."

"His lord has always been discreet and dislikes being disturbed."

"As for the reward you mentioned... how about I send you a few boxes of desserts?"

"Desserts?" Milim's thoughts were instantly pulled back when she heard this word.

She blinked her bright, large eyes, her face filled with curiosity and anticipation, and pressed for an answer.

"What is this? Is it something very, very sweet?"

“That’s right.” Frey raised her chin, a confident smile on her face. She was sure Milim would like it.

Because she clearly remembered that Milim had complained about her tasteless mouth because she ate vegetables every day, and had even taken honey for her.

As for gold coins, although they can be used as a reward, their value is greatly reduced due to the unique social system of Dragon Village.

Moreover, as one of the oldest demon lords, Milim has little desire for material things and is extremely powerful, so she doesn't really need these external possessions.

……

At the same time, thanks to timely and excellent intelligence sources, Clayman quickly learned of Caglion's defeat.

He gritted his teeth, never expecting things to develop in this way.

He knew he had been exposed, because as the defeated party, Carrion would surely reveal all the words he had used to seduce him.

If Frey finds out that she was the one who secretly orchestrated all of this, her fate will likely be dire.

Not to mention he framed Leon. If he had been killed by Kunoa, that would have been one thing, but if he hadn't…

Upon thinking about this, Kreman immediately had the idea of ​​running away.

He stared at the large floor-to-ceiling window, nervously biting his nails as he muttered to himself:

"Damn it, they're so incompetent."

"What Lion King? He was actually defeated by an ordinary demon king. What a piece of trash."

He cursed under his breath, then considered where to avoid trouble.

Locations like the frozen tundra and barren lands flashed rapidly through my mind.

But he rejected them all one by one.

There is only one reason: their masters are all demon kings and too powerful, and their past actions were tantamount to provocation.

At the same time, the environment in those places was extremely harsh and completely unsuitable for someone as pampered as him.

After much thought, only the nearby Demon Village seemed suitable.

The Demon Village is located on the border between the Puppet Kingdom and the Eastern Empire. It is a rich and secluded place, a perfect hiding place.

Frey would never have imagined this.

Although the master of the Demon Village is also a demon king, he has a gentle nature. This is a good opportunity to try and subdue him.

This way, I'll have more help when dealing with Frey and the other demon lords in the future.

Thinking of this, he made a decisive decision and took immediate action.

Of course, before taking action, he did not forget to arrange the follow-up matters of the puppet kingdom, and everything was managed by his subordinates.

At the same time, he prepared an apology gift in an attempt to quickly resolve the "misunderstanding" and prevent it from escalating to Qi Yi's side.

But if Frey persists...

……

After a period of time.

Did they run away?

After seeing Milim off, Frey immediately went to the Puppet Kingdom, only to learn that Kreman had gone on a "trip".

This discovery prompted her to let out a cold snort.

"Your information network is really good."

She recalled the traitors her master had discovered before. Although there weren't many of them, they were all in important positions and were clearly elites.

Fortunately, even the strongest elites, under the control of the King of Justice, have to obediently reveal the truth.

"You'll come back eventually, Clayman. You can run for a while, but you can't run forever."

As Frey was thinking this, she saw a young girl after she left the room.

The girl had blue hair and a forced smile on her face, probably out of fear of the demon king in front of her.

This is only natural.

When Clayman left, it was assumed that he had given up on her—the ring finger, one of the "five fingers," Miuland Farumenas.

Frey's eyes swept over Miu Lan, and a series of thoughts flashed through her mind.

She looked at the girl and asked in an icy voice:

“When Clayman left, he told you all the things he had instructed you to do.”
