Upon hearing the words of the demon clan chief, the four people below the stage were instantly entangled by unknown plant vines.
"Tell me! Where is it?"
Centered on Lulum on the throne, these vines quickly spread throughout the entire Demon King's castle.
Lulum lost control of her emotions. As the daughter of the previous Demon King, she naturally knew the inside story of the Abyss Order and also knew what the so-called "baptism" meant.
The four people entangled by the vines looked at Lulum, whose aura was bursting forth, with expressions of horror.
This is different from what that person said... Wasn't it said that sitting on the throne only grants power? What's going on with this magic?
Could it be a word game?! After all, they were the leaders of their clan, and they quickly understood.
"So we were just expendable pawns after all?" the demon chieftain thought with a bitter smile.
Lulum didn't care what they thought, and simply said in a brutal tone, "Speak! Or die!"
Feeling the oppressive aura of a god, the four poor chess pieces instantly trembled.
"Utan City on the border of the human race... Please, spare me! I was just momentarily bewitched."
The first to back down and beg for mercy was the tauren chieftain who had been the most arrogant before.
However, right after the Minotaur chieftain revealed the location and begged for mercy, the four of them stopped breathing.
"These beasts! How did they break through the academy's defenses without me noticing?" Upon hearing that Chloe had been captured, Lulum immediately used her god-level search magic, searching the entire academy, but to her dismay, she found no trace of Chloe. It seemed that Chloe had truly been captured.
Her search magic only found a suspicious barrier in the academy, but the barrier disappeared during her second search.
Chapter 51 Kicking her buttocks hard with boots
After seeing Linfair disappear, Chloe suddenly felt a strange sense of irritation, but she quickly reassured herself:
"Given Linfiel's speed, she should be able to report the situation here to Lulum soon, right? After all, the Demon King's Castle seems to be right next to the academy... There's no use in rushing, so we should think about how to deal with this guy."
Chloe kicked Angeloth's buttocks hard twice with her boots. Looking at Angeloth, who was still lying on the ground unconscious, Chloe suddenly felt her irritable mood ease a lot.
So, it's Jie-ge, right? You drugged me, right? You mocked my height, right? This girl is as weak as a chicken, and I almost punched her to death. Where did she get her confidence from? I have to find out, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted so much magic to save her.
By the way, Lulum should have some clues about this kind of organization, right?
So what's the security situation at this academy? Members of an organization that wants to take down the Demon King have infiltrated the academy as senior teachers, and they've even installed a teleportation array within the academy... There must be more than just Angeloth in this organization. After finding out about her organization, we'll have to find out the "cleanup" list.
I don't know how much she knows. Should I ask her first? If she's stubborn, then let Lulum handle it.
Although Chloe thought so, she couldn't wake Angeloth no matter what she did.
No matter how much they kicked her butt, she showed no sign of waking up.
He didn't even react at all, just like a "vegetative state patient".
Well, that's a lame joke.
If Chloe hadn't seen her status on the panel and it showed that her status was normal, Chloe would have thought she had smashed her brains to pieces with one punch... though she almost killed her, though.
Looking at the unconscious Angelo, Chloe couldn't think of a solution for the moment.
Chloe originally intended to drag her back first, since she didn't want to just wait around in this wasteland.
But then she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to know the way.
Even if she knew the way back, it was still quite bizarre to see a delicate little girl like her dragging a bunch of adults around the campus late at night.
If someone saw this, the next day the academy might be filled with strange news like, "Shocking! Little girl drags corpse in the middle of the night, is this a moral depravity or a demonic twistedness..."
Hiss—Chloe thought to herself and couldn't help but take a sip of her cold noodles. This is just too... fun, isn't it?
But that's just a thought. If I were to actually do it... first I'd need to know the way back. Otherwise, dragging such a large group of people around in a wasteland like this would be exhausting just thinking about it.
She had already exhausted a lot of energy from punching and casting healing spells.
Why not wait until Lulum receives the message and then send someone to take Angelos away?
She could have anyone take her to see Lulum.
She was frightened and needed Lulum's chest... to comfort her.
……
After Lulu finished dealing with the four pieces of trash, she immediately ran out of the Demon King's castle, found the direction to the human border, and began to construct a long-distance teleportation spell.
Since Lulum wasn't a specialist in magic, even as a god-level powerhouse, it took her a full eight seconds to construct a long-distance teleportation spell.
During the construction of the teleportation magic, she constantly blamed herself:
"It's my fault. I didn't expect there to be members of the Abyss Cult inside the academy. If I had known, I shouldn't have revealed Chloe's identity in such a playful way today... It's our fault. I also thought Chloe was safe in the academy, so I didn't pay much attention to her situation. I didn't even notice when she was captured. Damn the Abyss Cult! They planned that I couldn't leave the throne for too long today."
Was the Abyss Order's goal to exhaust her mental energy at the most critical moment of adjusting and maintaining the seal, so that she would always have to devote energy to fighting against the Abyss in the future?
In order to force her to leave the throne at this time, the Abyss Order both stalled the Four Heavenly Kings and sent people to mock her. This kind of plan obviously could not have been arranged in a day.
But in that case, their plan must have failed to take Chloe into account.
Without Chloe, could this kind of maneuver really have removed her from the throne?
Lulum still had some doubts about this.
However, Lulum only thought about it for a few seconds, because in that time, her teleportation spell was ready.
Even if that place is a trap, she will go to save Chloe.
Even if the Abyss is liberated, or even if she is corrupted by the Abyss, nothing is more important than Chloe's safety.
Anyone who dares to mess with Chloe must pay the price!
Just before she was about to step into the portal opened by the teleportation magic, Linfiel appeared not far from Lulum, struggling to maintain her swaying body, and called out to Lulum in a trembling voice, "Demon Lord! Lady Chloe asked me to pass on a message to you!"
Lulum paused as she stepped into the portal, then said to Linfel in a chilling tone, "Chloe has already been captured. Isn't it a bit late to deliver this message? I'll settle the score with you when I get back!"
"Huh? What do you mean, 'arrested'? It's that Lady Chloe caught a spy at the academy, saying she was trying to kidnap her. She asked me to explain the situation to you."
Although Linfiel was feeling a bit suffocated by Lulum's oppressive aura, she still clearly conveyed Chloe's intended message in the face of the Demon King's strange remarks.
Upon hearing Linfiel's words, Lulum, who was about to step into the portal, immediately altered the magic's structure, causing the portal to malfunction and shatter.
It looked as if Lulu had stomped on the portal and shattered it.
"Chloe is really in the academy... then why couldn't I find her earlier?"
After Lulum shattered the portal, she immediately used search magic to confirm that Chloe was in the academy.
After learning that Chloe was alright, Lulum seemed to deflate, and her previously sharp aura softened again.
Although she longed to see Chloe immediately, her mental strength was rapidly declining, and she had to return to the throne at once.
Since Chloe is alright, she should continue maintaining the seal.
However, she still had many questions and didn't understand them, such as why Chloe disappeared, how the people she captured managed to infiltrate the academy, and why there was a strong abyssal aura around her.
After calming down, she immediately said to Linfeier, "Bring Chloe to the Demon King's Palace right now, I have something to say to her!"
After receiving Lulum's order, Linfiel did not immediately set out, but instead added, "The one who was caught..."
"Bring them all!"
Chapter Fifty-Two: The Concealed Matters
Utan City, on the border of the human race, is a small city located on the border of the human race.
Because this city is right next to the Starry Forest, this small city, which has no strategic significance, has never been attacked by the demons.
Furthermore, because many adventurers stop in this city when they go to explore the Starry Forest, the city is very prosperous.
But it is precisely because there are many adventurers and the city is so diverse that the Abyss Order was able to develop in the city.
However, the Abyss Cult members in this city received an urgent mission today: to send a little demon girl for "baptism."
It was also said that a new Demon King would come to this city.
These news excited the believers in the city.
Finally, they also got the chance to merge into the abyss, how could they not be excited?
To sacrifice oneself for the abyss is to merge with the abyss...
After receiving the news, the followers began to gather outside the city and waited until late at night.
Finally, a huge portal appeared on the open ground outside the city.
"For the Abyss!"
Upon seeing the portal, the cult members, as if injected with adrenaline, charged towards it.
It was as if they couldn't wait to die. Or rather, they were simply throwing their lives away.
However, just as they were about to touch the portal, it suddenly disappeared.
"Where's the door? Where's that huge door?"
"Where is the Demon King? Have you seen the Demon King?"
"Could the Demon King be trapped by us?"
"Bullshit! Nothing came out of the door!"
"No, a cockroach just came out of the door... Look, it's stuck to the bottom of my foot."
"Could this be the Demon King?"
"He has cerebral palsy!"
"?"
The group of cult members, who had rushed too far, stopped in their tracks, bewildered, after the door disappeared, and began to discuss the matter animatedly.
The scene was once very chaotic.
Behind the crowd were two men in black robes who clearly belonged to extraordinary people, watching the chaotic group of cult members.
One of them suddenly spoke up, "That magical fluctuation just now had the aura of the abyss. It must have been a portal opened by the Demon King. But why didn't the Demon King come?"
"Isn't that obvious? Some useless operations failed." The other man in black robes seemed to have already guessed the outcome, and his tone was somewhat indifferent.
Upon hearing this, the first man in black robes immediately bowed his head and said, "Executor, are you saying that the pawn in the academy failed? Impossible, my men just contacted her, and she clearly said it was foolproof..."
"Hmph, it doesn't matter. It's just proceeding according to the original plan, and the original plan has already succeeded... Even if that good-for-nothing had succeeded, it would have only sped things up a bit, not much difference, and it would have saved me the trouble of taking action. However, it's quite a pity that we couldn't 'baptize' the Demon King's daughter into one of our own." The black-robed man known as the Executor sneered.
"Then, sir, should we go back?" asked the black-robed man of lower status, somewhat hesitantly.
"What? Tomorrow's a holiday, you think you can skip work and get triple pay? Don't you have any dreams?!"
……
"So what exactly was the purpose of this Abyss operation? Was it just to get us to kill those four idiots?"
"Indeed, although those four people were deceived, it seems like they were deliberately courting death. What was their motive?"
"Did they anticipate that we would lose control of our emotions today?"
"Out of control...? Indeed, today happens to be a critical time to maintain the seal. Even if they don't mention Chloe, if they continue to provoke like this, I probably won't be able to resist making them completely quiet."
Lulum sat on the throne, analyzing what had just happened to herself, but she still couldn't figure out the Abyss Order's purpose.
While waiting for Chloe, she contacted the Four Heavenly Kings and inquired about their situation.
They were indeed held up, but not by the enemy; rather, they were held up by some trivial matters.
But they did not discover what was happening in the Demon King's castle—until Lulum unleashed her aura.
Of the Four Heavenly Kings, except for one who was lurking among humans, the other three encountered events at almost the same time.
The Shadow King was approached by students seeking his expertise, while the Crimson King was forced to kneel on durians at home after his servant exposed his hidden stash of money.
As for the last female superstar... her harem caught fire.
These events all happened around the same time. Combining this with what those four idiots had said earlier, Lulum knew that these were not coincidences, but rather the work of the Abyss Order.
So Lulu immediately ordered all those involved to be arrested.
So far, one male student, one maid, and one hundred and eight strong men have been apprehended.
As for why I say "so far," it's because someone's list is still being written... a list of men, and it's expected that there will be a list of women, an unknown entity, and another creature.
Lulum was both amused and exasperated by the news, remarking that her distant relative truly lived up to his reputation as a purebred succubus.
