In the evening, there were several single figures at the side door of the Custer Familyâs residence.
Chen Rui wanted to go alone, but after Kia knew, she was worried about his safety and insisted on going together.
âAfter the Custer Familyâs affair is completed, Iâll return to the Dark Moon. If you really like me and want the best for me, donât look for me.â
âThe Dark Shadow Empire isnât safe. I think you should go to the Bloody Empire and get support directly from the Demon Realmâs strongest man, Raizen the Great. With your skills and reputation, youâll definitely be valued by Emperor Raizen. Donât ask why. I wonât harm you.â
Chen Rui, who was sitting in the carriage, was frowning as he thought about what Kia said to him just now along the way.
What is Kia signing? Dark Shadow Empire isnât safe, and I should go to the Bloody Empire? This kind reminder is also a refusal to confess something. She still intends to return to Dark Moon. Then, Dark Moon must be the location of her mission, and she is likely under certain control.
âWeâre here.â Celineâs words interrupted Chen Ruiâs thoughts. The carriage stopped, and they had already reached the southern suburbs.
The three of them walked off the carriage and walked a long way. They saw a large house surrounded by walls at a hillside in front of them. This should be the place that Old Gauss âsleptâ as mentioned by Celine.
The place was relatively remote which was probably one of Celineâs secret bases. No wonder no one found out.
The house was getting closer and closer. Under the moonlight, the guard at the door could already be seen. It was a woman.
Kia could clearly see the womanâs appearance. Her body suddenly stiffened, and she grasped Chen Ruiâs hand. Chen Rui was taken aback for the heavy strength Kia used. Besides, from her hand, he could feel that her entire body was shaking as if she saw something terrifying.
Kiaâs finger moved, writing forcefully at his palm: Run!
At that time, the guard entered the scope of [Analytical Eyes] that Chen Rui activated. Race: Great Demon (Mutated); Comprehensive Strength Assessment: C-.
A Guard at the early stage of Demon King?
With Chen Ruiâs current strength, Demon King wasnât anything, but Kiaâs reaction... Does she know this guard?
Chen Rui thought about it and immediately said, âWait, Ms. Celine, I suddenly remembered that I left something important at the alternative residence. Can we go back to take it first?â
âWhat is it?â Celine looked at Chen Rui with a smile, âIâll ask someone to get it for master.â
Celineâs strange smile made Chen Rui feel even strongly that something was wrong. It is indeed a trap.
At that moment, another strange womanâs voice sounded.
âSince youâre already here, are you still trying to escape?â
Chen Rui felt that Kiaâs hand trembled again. She seemed to be familiar with the voice, and she was very scared.
The thin mist in front suddenly became thicker while a few figures condensed which gradually became clearer.
Their leader was a young woman in her 20s; she had blue hair and eyes. Race: Envy Royal Family Comprehensive Strength Assessment: C+. Physique: C; Strength: C; Spirit: C+; Agility: C+.
The Leviathan girl is at the peak of Demon King! Why is Kia so scared?
Behind the girl was a tall, bulky woman who was actually a Great Demon King. Race: Gluttony Royal Family; Comprehensive Strength Assessment: B-. Physique: B-; Strength: B-, Spirit: B-; Agility: B-.
There were also several mutated Great Demon, which were all between early to middle stage Demon King. They were all women. Celine walked over and stood behind these people; she was obviously part of the gang.
Chen Ruiâs eyes narrowed slightly. Gluttony Royal Family! Other than Glorfin, itâs my first time encountering another Beelzebub Royal Family. Besides, she is even together with the Envy Royal Family!
âLook at who this is? So surprising.â The blue-eyed girl looked beautiful, but her tone seemed contemptuous and nasty, âIt really is you, Kia.â
Kia let go of Chen Ruiâs hand and lowered her head, âMs. Fatilu.â
âI heard from Celine that Master Arthur was fascinated by a succubus named Kia, but I didnât expect it to really be you.â Fatiluâs eyes turned cold, âThat being said, you shouldnât appear in the Dark Shadow Empire right? Youâre so bold to actually leave there without permission.â
âIâm sorry, Ms. Fatilu, I was only temporarily brought to the Dark Shadow Empire, and I didnât have any time to report it. Please forgive me.â Kia lowered her head and said with a begging tone.
Chen Rui could tell that Fatilu must be related to Kiaâs secret. Also, her position was much higher than Kia. They were probably from the same closed, secret organization. He replied immediately, âMs. Fatilu, for you to lure me here using Celine, it isnât just to gather with your old mates right?â
âThis must be Master Arthur.â Fatilu smiled, âMaster is in the limelight this time and your name is popular throughout the entire Demon Realm. Even Master Horford, who I specially invited, isnât comparable to you. Unfortunately, the rise of master ruined a little plan of mine. So, I came here deliberately this time to take a glimpse of the trio-specialized masterâs glory.â
Chen Rui had a sudden realization. It turns out that there is such a force behind Celine. No wonder she could find a dual-specialized master like Horford!
The âruined planâ that Fatilu mentioned must be similar to Princess Royal, Sheaâs plan. It was to use Celine to control the top business family in the Dark Shadow Empire to achieve a certain purpose of this organization.
Kia from Dark Moon, the dual-specialized master Horford who was probably the disciple of Nate, the best mechanic master in the Demon Realm (information obtained from the Mechanic Alliance), Celine from the Custer family... These elements are just the tip of the iceberg. It seems that this force isnât simple. With the control of such a force, Celine can ascend as the head of family even without relying on me. The reason why Iâm lured here must be for the title of trio-specialized mechanic master.
âI donât have any glory to look at. Sorry to disappoint you, Ms. Fatilu.â Chen Rui glanced at Celine, âMs. Celine mustâve reported all my information to Ms. Fatilu. I donât like beating around the bushes. Letâs get straight to the point.â
âMaster is truly a straightforward person. Then, Iâll go straight to the point.â Fatilu nodded, âI want to invite master to a place as a guest. I hope master can agree.â
Chen Rui shrugged, âIf I donât agree, will you âhelpâ me agree?â
âMaster is really an interesting person.â Fatilu laughed politely, âRest assured, master. I have absolutely no bad intentions. Perhaps, master might even receive many unexpected benefits.â
âFine.â Chen Rui sighed, âI have a condition. Iâll go with you alone, but you have to let Kia and Old Gauss in the house leave.â
âDid master really fall in love with this cheap woman?â Fatilu smiled more coldly, âYouâre actually willing to exchange her with yourself?â
Kia shuddered. When Chen Rui heard Fatiluâs insults against Kia, he frowned, âItâs just that I have my own plan. This request shouldnât be too much right?â
âItâs not too much. However, I donât agree.â Fatilu said coldly, âMaster, donât forget that you donât have the right to request. As for this lowly succubus... since young, she is only qualified to lick my shoes. Donât you think so? My... elder sister?â
Chen Rui was shocked. Kia is actually Fatiluâs sister!
Fatilu was a Leviathan Royal Family while Kia was a succubus. In other words, Kiaâs father should be a Leviathan Royal Family while her mother was a succubus. Since Demon Realm had no mixed blood, the children would be the race of either parent. Therefore, Kia and Fatilu werenât of the same race.
Even if they are different races, Fatiluâs words and behaviors are too much since they are still blood-related sisters afterall! Kia is likely to be bullied by Fatilu since young, so she is so scared.
Kia was still lowering her head and said nothing.
âPeasant, isnât it?â Fatilu screamed aggressively, âAnswer me in front of master!â
âYes, Ms. Fatilu.â Kia nodded with a blank face.
One was âpeasantâ and the other was âmissâ. He could tell from their appellations. Are they still sisters? A little chillness appeared in Chen Ruiâs eyes.
Fatiluâs eyes became even fiercer. Ever since she could remember, the concept of elder sister in her mind was âlowlyâ. Whatever Kia liked, even a stone, she would ruthlessly destroy it.
After witnessing Arthurâs feelings for Kia with her own eyes, she couldnât stand it. Why did the Demon Realmâs only trio-specialized genius master fancy that lowly succubus?!
What she wanted to do now was to humiliate this bitch and destroy the dignity of her elder sister in front of master. She wanted to destroy the image of this peasant in the masterâs mind and made Arthur completely disappointed at Kia.
Fatiluâs brutal smile made her beautiful face distorted, âPew!â She spat on the ground and said wickedly, âThen, crawl like a bitch and lick it clean now!â
Kiaâs body was trembling slightly. The corner of her mouth was already bleeding from her bites, but she didnât move.
Behind Fatilu, the Great Demon King woman from the Beelzebub Royal Family looked like a subordinate, but she didnât stop nor convince Fatilu. Instead, like all the other people, she looked like she was gloating. She was even smirking, seemingly used to the situation.
Fatilu smiled creepily, âIf you donât lick, then Iâll have your lowly mother do the same.â
It turns out that Fatilu and Kia have different mothers! Chen Rui finally understood and the coldness in his eyes had turned into murderousness.
Hearing Fatiroâs threat, Kia shuddered again. She squeezed her fist, struggled for a while in her heart and finally bent down slowly. Suddenly, her body was stopped as she was pulled by someone.
Feeling Chen Ruiâs undisguised murderous intention, Kia was startled and quickly pulled his hand, indicating that he shouldnât be impulsive.
That detail fell into Fatiluâs eyes and her heart was filled with even more jealousy. She sneered, âMaster, I advise you not to act rashly. You havenât figured out the difference in strength...â
At that moment, the Great Demon King-level Beelzebub woman behind suddenly looked triggered and stepped to the front of Fatilu.
Immediately after, Fatilu felt a horrifying murderous intention coming toward her. Then, two figures suddenly collided in front of her eyes. As they met and separated, everything was vague. Messy clashing noises sounded continuously, and the ground also couldnât stop trembling.
The two figures were separated again. It was her most powerful guard, Tapuli that actually had a blade wound on her face that slowly dripped fresh blood. The scary murderousness from the opposite was getting stronger. The mechanic master didnât have any weapons. However, his hand gleamed faintly and emitted a terrifying sharpness like a godly weapon.
There was an indescribable shock in Fatiluâs heart: Tapuli is an elite under my father, a Great Demon King powerhouse that is proficient in both magic and physical. No matter how genius this guy is, heâs just a master who devotes himself to the study of mechanics. Yet, he can actually suppress Tapuli!
Kia was also stunned. Initially, she was worried that this man couldnât get away. Now, it seemed that her worry was for nothing. Celine was the most frightened among them. She wanted to lure Arthur here and defeat this mechanic master without failure with the extraordinary strength of Fatiluâs party. Yet, she never expected this would be the case!
âMs. Fatilu! Be careful!â The breath from Tapuliâs body was soaring. She shouted, âHe is a Great Demon King, and his combat power is shocking!â
Tapuliâs words made Fatilu shivered: A Great Demon King, and he is even being described to have âshockingâ combat power by someone as strong as Tapuli?
At once, Fatilu couldnât bother humiliating Kia. She quickly stepped back under the protection of several Demon King-level guards.
Chen Ruiâs eyes flashed like a sharp blade. With several punches, he knocked Tapuli back and took advantage of the momentum to pounce toward Fatilu.
Tapuli was shaken back. Seeing that she could stop him, she waved her hand and a lightning struck Chen Ruiâs back, trying to stop his action.
Unexpectedly, Chen Rui only flicked a little and didnât seem to be greatly affected. He continued to pounce toward Fatilu without losing speed.
After he was promoted to Migrez state, the passive characteristic, [Anti-Magic] could reduce magic damage. Together with the initial [Damage Absorption] that reduced 30% of damage, the damage of the lightning was reduced to the minimal. It couldnât produce the expected effect.
The few Demon King guards noticed the situation was bad, so they ignited their amplification flame and rushed toward Chen Rui recklessly.
The scene where Fatilu threatened and insulted Kia while everyone laughed just now appeared in Chen Ruiâs mind. Although he didnât like to hurt women, he was determined to take the lives of these people now, so he was merciless. Wherever the [Aura Blade] went, the guardsâ blood splattered before they got close.
In the blink of an eye, the five guards were all eliminated.
Demon King-level strength was nothing in the face of the fierce attack from Great Demon King.
Yet, the guardsâ obstruction still played a role. Tapuli who came to aid had arrived. She cast Beelzebub Royal Familyâs talent â [Decelerate]. Chen Ruiâs action was suddenly slowed, but he was still faster than Tapuliâs expectation.
Fatilu was at the peak of Demon King after all. Besides, she was a Leviathan Royal Family. Her right eye immediately glowed with a faint dark light. Chen Rui felt his movement was paused as if the air around him was frozen.
That trick was called [Space Compression], a controlling skill of [Eye of Incubus]. He experienced it a few times during training from Delia, so he didnât panic. He gathered his strength slightly and exploded to burst out of the [Eye of Incubus]âs constraint forcefully.
Fatilu screamed as if she was struck by thunder. Blood was flowing out of her right eye.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Could Kia be the spy sent by the Bloody Empire? Would Kia tell Chen Rui everything after this fight?
