Chapter 121: Master Lolth Is Truly Impressive!
Inside the Demon King’s chamber, the grand, altar-like bed stood empty, devoid of the majestic figure that usually rested there.
Peering through the curtains, one would see nothing but a vacant space. The Demon King’s form was absent, though the voice of the ruler reverberated as usual.
“The information from Dear Lolth… Doyle, bring it to me.”
The magnificent voice, as if spoken by a million tongues at once, filled the vast chamber.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Doyle Candice respectfully approached the altar, placing the stack of papers provided by Lolth in its usual spot.
In an instant, the documents vanished.
The sound of pages turning emanated from behind the curtain where the Demon King’s presence was felt but unseen.
Doyle, familiar with the routine, stood quietly, awaiting the Demon King’s response.
The soft rustling of pages began slowly, then grew faster, until it became an almost continuous hum. This rhythm was unmistakable—every time the Demon King reviewed something from Master Lolth, it followed the same pattern.
Finally, the turning stopped.
A brief silence followed before the Demon King’s voice once again filled the air.
“Indeed, Dear Lolth is truly talented. This information is exceptionally detailed and crucial. Doyle, copy several sets of this and deliver them to the commanders on the front lines. They must follow Dear Lolth’s instructions precisely in the coming battles.”
The stack of documents reappeared in Doyle’s hands as the Demon King finished speaking.
“Understood, Your Majesty,” Doyle replied, bowing. She hesitated briefly before asking, “Which commanders should I deliver it to?”
From behind the curtain came a deep, booming laugh.
“If you read it yourself, you’ll understand!”
The Demon King’s tone was laced with amusement.
“Hoo ha ha ha… Dear Lolth’s information is so detailed, it doesn’t seem like it was acquired through interrogation. It feels as though she personally infiltrated the Holy Alliance to uncover their secrets!”
Encouraged to review the intelligence, Doyle opened the report, her curiosity piqued.
Though she was favored by the Demon King, Doyle understood her position. As a messenger and herald for the Demon King, she was careful not to overstep her boundaries.
Yet now, with the Demon King’s permission, she allowed herself to read the document.
Her eyes scanned the first page, and immediately, her pupils constricted.
“The main target… is actually the Demon King Castle and the Old Western Line Ruins!”
Despite her lack of battlefield experience, Doyle’s sharp intellect recognized the gravity of the Holy Alliance’s strategy.
The plan was cunning.
If not for Lolth’s timely interception of this information, the Demon Army would have been blindsided by a coordinated assault.
The Eastern and Central Lines would strike unexpectedly, misleading the Demon Army into believing the Western Line was the primary target.
The result would have been catastrophic:
The Holy Alliance would reoccupy the vulnerable Old Western Line Ruins, restarting the Anti-Demon Great Wall.
This move would sever the link between Vera Plain and the Demon King Castle.
The newly stationed army would trap the three Demon Army legions in Vera Plain, forcing a retreat to the New Western Line.
In such a scenario, Vera Plain would undoubtedly fall, and the Holy Alliance could mount an offensive across the entire front.
Cold sweat beaded on Doyle’s brow as she grasped the magnitude of the threat.
“This plan is ruthless… No wonder the Demon King holds Lolth’s intelligence in such high regard.”
Now it was clear why the Demon King left the decision to Doyle—this intelligence was vital for all the front-line legions.
Even Lolth, known for her calm and composed demeanor, had personally delivered the report. She must have understood the stakes long before intercepting this intelligence.
Reflecting on Lolth’s recent actions, Doyle saw the pattern clearly.
Lolth had been traversing Vera Plain, resolving issues for the stationed legions. Though the Holy Alliance’s primary objective was not the western front, their ultimate goal hinged on destabilizing it.
By addressing potential problems ahead of time, Lolth ensured that the Demon Army’s western defenses remained robust.
Doyle couldn’t help but murmur in admiration, “Master Lolth is truly wise…”
With renewed determination, Doyle turned to the Demon King.
“Your Majesty, I now understand how to utilize this information. When I visited Vera Plain to distribute supplies, as you predicted, there were indeed some issues. However, to my surprise, Master Lolth had already resolved them before I arrived!”
The Demon King’s laughter echoed once more, rich with delight.
“Hahaha! Excellent! Truly worthy of Dear Lolth!”
The Demon King’s voice carried a sense of triumph.
“Pass word to all the legions: act strictly according to Dear Lolth’s intelligence and strategies. Once we repel the Holy Alliance’s assault, I shall reward Dear Lolth handsomely!”
