Why does it suddenly feel like you're making your final arrangements? This kind of mentality is not good; it can easily lead to your demise.

Chloe suddenly patted her face, adjusting her mindset. She needed to keep an eye on Lulum's condition and couldn't just go off to play in the human realm. For her right now, Lulum was the most important person.

Before Lulum can move freely, she should investigate that mysterious cult first...

After finishing their meal, Chloe and her friends walked down the street. After a few steps, Chloe felt that the scenery around them looked somewhat familiar.

The streets were also very quiet.

Apart from the workers still working on the construction site, there was hardly anyone else around.

At the same time, Chloe suddenly felt like she was being watched.

But after she turned on her main phone and sensed her surroundings for a while, she found nothing unusual.

Although somewhat bewildered, Chloe remained vigilant and kept a large size up until they left the street.

After Chloe and the others left, the two workers on the construction site also gradually stopped what they were doing and exchanged a glance.

"Can you feel it?"

"Yes, sir, though faint, it is indeed the aura of the abyss... Is she warning us that those are her prey?"

"It's possible. Hopefully, it doesn't conflict with our plans..."

The two workers spoke in a language that no one around them could understand, and their tone was wary.

……

"Is it finally maintained? The seal stabilized even faster than I expected..."

Feeling the seal stabilize, Lulum, who had been on the throne for many days with her mind tense, was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

The sealing process now only requires her to continuously infuse power, and the cost of maintaining the seal is negligible.

However, she cannot leave the Demon King's Castle for too long before the seal can store enough energy... You must know that the previous Demon King maintained the seal for thousands of years, but only stored enough energy to maintain the seal for ten years.

The most troublesome seal has been broken, but the war is still giving Lulum a headache.

She received news this afternoon that agricultural students at the Demon King Academy had discovered a way to grow wheat on the land of the Demon Realm, which was a major discovery.

However, the yield is still not very good... If I have another two or three years, no! a year, and I work with that student on the research, I guess we can develop a crop that can solve the food crisis, right?

Lulum thought to herself, but unfortunately, the nobles had already indicated that they couldn't delay any longer, and two of the Four Heavenly Kings also supported the war. She was finding it difficult to drag things out for even a month, let alone a year... But if she could find a way to drag things out for a year, she wouldn't have to go to war with the humans...

Thinking of this, Lulum took out another draft of the declaration of war and began to struggle with the decision.

"My Lord Demon King, are you troubled by how to temporarily avoid war? I have a good idea..."

Just as Lulum was troubled and conflicted, a charming voice appeared in Lulum's ear.

"Oh, it's Miao Qiya. What's your method? I'm very interested."

Lulum asked with interest about the mature succubus who suddenly appeared beside her, who addressed her as "Demon King" but acted like an elder.

Because the one who came was none other than the Four Heavenly Kings—[King of Calamity] Mükia, who was essentially Lulum's elder and had the right to speak to her like that.

And she did indeed provide Lulum with a good way to stall for time.

Lulum is still the same Lulum as before; I wasn't wrong about what she was thinking.

Seeing Lulum's interest, Miukia admired her own cleverness and then presented her proposal with a bright smile:

"Wouldn't it be enough if you, Demon King, just got married? I happen to have a daughter named Tiffany who isn't an adult yet..."

Chapter 61 Where Did the Small Breads Come From?

"So what do you mean by marriage?" Lulum, clad in armor, tapped the armrest of the throne, seemingly not quite understanding what Mukia meant.

Meanwhile, Miukia, still wearing a mysterious smile, said to Lulum, "Demon King, you are still young, and your mother has never been married, so you don't know that we demons have a rule that if the Demon King marries and takes a principal wife, the whole country must celebrate for a year. A year should be enough for you to see the current situation clearly, right?"

Looking at the mysteriously smiling Mukia, Lulum pondered for a moment and said:

"Is there really such a rule?"

"Waaah, don't you trust me? If you don't believe me, you can ask Lucas and Teppera. You can trust those two, right?"

Miao Qiya covered her face, turned her head to the side, and pretended to be very sad.

Seeing Myuukia's expression, Lulum immediately changed her attitude and began to speak to her in a conciliatory tone:

"Aunt Miao, please don't say that, it's a bit... cough, it's not that I don't trust you, Aunt Miao, it's just that I didn't expect you, a proponent of war, to propose such a favorable condition for me. Knowing you as I do, you would never propose such a disadvantageous condition for yourself..."

"You still know I'm your relative? How could I harm you? Of course I know you don't want war, but I can't force you to go to the battlefield, can I? Besides, didn't I say before? This year is a good opportunity for you to see the current situation in the Demon Realm. Then you will naturally support our pro-war faction."

Seeing that Lulum's tone had softened a bit, Miukia's attitude also became much more genuine, no longer feigning innocence.

Lulum pondered for a while longer and realized that what Mukia said made some sense. Even if the pro-war faction desperately wanted war, they needed her approval, and specifically, she had to lead the army. Otherwise, why would they need Lulum, the new Demon King, to agree? They could have simply started the war on their own before Lulum even assumed power!

However, it's impossible to say that Miao Qiya had no ulterior motives, because she had already set her conditions.

Among the offspring of various families, if someone becomes the Demon King's principal wife, then the status of that family will certainly be greatly elevated.

Not to mention that Miukia was originally one of the Four Heavenly Kings. If her daughter were to become a queen, her power in the Demon Realm would probably be second only to Lulum.

Miao Qiya didn't mention anything about her gaining anything, only saying that it was a win-win situation. If I agreed, she would be the one who won big... Hmph, as expected of an old fox, she really made a good calculation!

However, Lulum seems to have a reason to refuse, because the power of the Demon Realm... what does it have to do with her? If she could, she would want to get rid of all those political matters.

"So, Miao Qiya, your condition is that I 'marry' your daughter as my legal wife? But have you considered that I am also a woman?"

The discussion was considered over once Lulum had figured it out. Chloe said to Miukia in a clearly joking tone.

Seeing Chloe's joking attitude, Miucia also put on a business-like smile and said:

"Your Majesty, you've always presented yourself as a reliable adult male in public. If you don't marry a woman, this facade might actually arouse suspicion, right? Besides, can you accept 'marrying' a man?"

“That makes sense, but since we’re both minors and the offspring of the Four Heavenly Kings, why can’t I marry Tepera’s daughter?”

In response to Miukia's answer, Lulum simply chuckled and asked in return.

And Miao Qiya clearly had an explanation in mind:

"Heh heh, Tepera's daughter looks only ten years old this year, doesn't she? Demon King, don't you feel it's a loss of face for you to marry her as your principal wife? Unlike my daughter, who should have come of age long ago, she just hasn't wanted to go through the 'rite of passage'... We're both succubi, you know what I mean, right?"

Although Miuqia spoke in a joking tone, her expression carried a hint of mockery, as if she were hinting at something while staring at Lulum.

"I'm a subspecies, so I don't really understand the messy stuff about you purebred succubi. But since you've put it that way, Aunt Mu, I'm quite interested in your daughter, and it seems I have no reason to refuse... So, how about a pleasant collaboration?"

Lulum sighed, raised her hands, and made a gesture of compromise.

"Happy cooperation!"

……

Chloe has found her sleep quality to be exceptionally good these past two days.

Because she could sleep soundly during class without being disturbed, that felt really great!

She's wanted to do this for ten years!

That's right, right after yesterday, Chloe slept in the classroom all morning again.

After all, she didn't know what to do staying in the house, so she might as well go to class to kill time.

If her swordsmanship training hadn't inexplicably reached a bottleneck, she probably would have already started practicing swordsmanship... Perhaps because her level broke through too quickly, her body and technique hadn't been properly integrated yet, so she still skipped her training program.

It's not because she's become lazy...it's not!

The morning passed quickly, but after the school bell rang today, Chloe woke up and looked around. She didn't see Ilesia, but instead saw a group of people gathered around her for some reason.

These people seemed to be her classmates, because Chloe had been in a withdrawn and sleepy state throughout her school years, so she was not really familiar with them.

I didn't even remember his name.

Why are they all surrounding her? Chloe suddenly woke up and glanced at the ring on her hand.

Hmm, it's still there, so it shouldn't be triggering any special CG.

"Excuse me, why is everyone surrounding me?"

Chloe, who had been a little nervous, relaxed again and started acting cute, pretending to be uneasy as she asked the people around her.

The people around her were immediately charmed and started asking Chloe a barrage of questions.

Can you please ask each question one by one? Why is there someone asking me about 3D modeling? I'm calling the police!

Chloe, feeling utterly overwhelmed by the noise, kept an awkward yet polite smile on her face, using deliberately cutesy phrases like "Meow meow meow?" and "Um~" to brush off her classmates' questions.

"Is anyone coming to save me?!" Chloe thought to herself. Why wasn't Ilesia by her side at this crucial moment?

Where did Ilesia go?

Chloe was surrounded by people from the time she left school in the morning until almost the start of the afternoon class. The crowd's fascination made Chloe wonder if the ring on her hand had stopped working.

In the end, Chloe was pulled out of the crowd by Linfair, who happened to be passing by.

"You finally have a use... But could you be a little more timely next time you come to the rescue? I felt like we almost triggered a special CG just now..."

After getting away from the crowd with Linfair, Chloe said some strange things to Linfair.

However, Linfair still realized that Chloe was insulting her. What a joke! Me, a master-level assassin, being your bodyguard and you're complaining? Although I really was just passing by…

Well, even though she could tell Chloe was insulting her, Linfair, being so straightforward, couldn't find a reason to refute Chloe.

Just as Chloe was about to ask Linfeel if she had seen Ilesia, Ilesia suddenly appeared beside her.

"Little Yi, Satania and I made bread, come and eat!" As she spoke, Ilesia stretched her head in front of Chloe, looking at her expectantly, like a puppy seeking praise.

Bread? You mean that stuff that's ridiculously expensive in the cafeteria? Where do they get the ingredients?

Chapter Sixty-Two: The body is that of a child, but the mind is that of an adult.

So the reason Ilesia disappeared was because she went to bake bread with Satania?

Seeing Ilesia's "praise me" expression, Chloe probably understood why Ilesia had given up clinging to her and left with Satania.

It's a pity that Ilesia arrived a little late, otherwise she wouldn't have had to force herself to praise Linfier.

However, Chloe was somewhat confused about the "bread" that Alesia mentioned. Where did the ingredients come from? They didn't grow wheat in their experimental field...

It couldn't have been bought, could it?

Think about that shabby college cafeteria where a single loaf of bread costs an exorbitant price, so the raw materials must be incredibly expensive, right?

By the way, it's still questionable whether the "bread" Alesia mentioned is actually the bread she understands...

Chloe thought about it for a while and decided that it would be better to let Ilesia take her there and see for herself before making an evaluation.

Anyway, given Alesia's abilities, it's just a transition period.

So Chloe ruffled Ilesia's hair a few times with both hands, then smiled and said to Ilesia:

"Yoshi yoshi yoshi... Then Alesia, please take me there. I also want to try your cooking."

Although Alesia didn't quite understand what Chloe was saying when she touched her head, she was still very happy to have Chloe pat her head like that.

Even when Chloe stopped, her expression showed a hint of disappointment.

However, when she heard Chloe say she wanted to try her cooking, she immediately and happily took Chloe away.

Lin Fei'er was left standing there, looking completely bewildered: "Why did you leave already? What about me?"

She suddenly felt like an outsider.

……

Chloe used Irecia's spatial magic to instantly arrive at the laboratory.

Upon entering the laboratory, Chloe immediately smelled a sweet fragrance.

She then looked toward the source of the aroma—several pineapple buns on the lab table.

Chloe was stunned when she saw the pineapple bun.
