Chapter 141: Congratulations to Lady Lolth on Being Promoted to Chief Consultant of the Demon Army

After a brief silence, Doyle suddenly seemed to realize that she had nothing to feel guilty about, and her confidence returned.

"Lady Lolth, I was sent by the Demon King. Your fairy maid said she didn’t know where you went and told me to wait for you in the reception room."

As Doyle said this, she looked at the five lambs and then at the farmer’s hat on Lolth’s head, letting out a sigh.

"But you, Lady Lolth… hiding your presence and suddenly appearing really startled me."

Hearing this from Doyle, Lolth began to explain.

"Well… um, I was out dressed as a shepherd, you know, the Demon King cares a lot about the lives of ordinary people, so I naturally want to put that into practice, to experience real life and enjoy it with the people."

As Lolth said this, she herself felt it was a bit forced.

However, Doyle Candice showed a look of skepticism.

"Really…? Then how did you get the power of Holy Light? Did a priest attack you?"

Doyle asked very directly.

"What Holy Light power? I have no idea," Lolth could only act clueless in the face of such a strange story. "Your Excellency Doyle, could it be that you misunderstood?"

"Maybe…"

The Little Devil nodded uncertainly when she heard Lolth say that.

Then, Lolth quickly changed the subject.

"So why did the Demon King ask Your Excellency Doyle to come here?"

"Oh, it’s nothing. The Demon King asked me to inform you that the Holy Alliance’s attack has begun…"

Doyle said casually, but Lolth felt surprised.

"What is this? Has the Holy Alliance’s attack begun?"

She just returned from the Western Front and didn’t see any signs of trouble!

Doyle nodded and continued, "Yes, it matches exactly with the information you presented, Your Excellency Lolth. Currently, the Central and Eastern Fronts are at a standstill, and we have successfully set up an ambush on the other side of Dragonspine Mountain…"

"Wait, how can it match exactly?"

Lolth interrupted Doyle, feeling even more confused.

"It can’t really be called an exact match… There were some problems on the battlefield at Dragonspine Mountain. Two members of the Phantom Legion got greedy, which means the mission at Dragonspine Mountain is still not complete," Doyle sighed, "This does show that those guys lack discipline…"

Upon hearing this, Lolth finally understood why there had been no movement from the troops on the Western Front.

So this attack plan… is really about moving the troops from the Central Front to Dragonspine Mountain.

"Thanks to you, Your Excellency Lolth. After all, all the information we received before pointed to the Western Front," Doyle said with a sigh, "Only the Demon King believed you from the beginning—who would have thought those humans were so deceitful to go through such great lengths to create false information?"

As Doyle said this, Lolth suddenly remembered the letter she had fished out of the river.

"I am such a pure fool!"

Lolth now wished she could give herself a couple of slaps.

She finally understood that the letter written to Isabella was indeed meant to trick her.

The Holy Alliance really went around in a big circle!

Such obvious traces of magic seemed to hide something, but they practically invited people to discover the letter.

However, on the surface, Lolth still had to pretend to be confident and assured in front of Doyle.

"Yes, the plans of the Holy Alliance are indeed meticulous and wicked; it looks like a new western front, but the real target is the central line…"

"But they really made a big mistake," Doyle laughed, "they actually chose to trust a prisoner; they probably never imagined that knight was already under your control…"

Lolth really wanted to tell Doyle that they never believed Isabella from the very beginning.

But after thinking for a moment, she just sighed.

"No, Isabella was not controlled by me at all; she didn’t even fall; she actually destroyed that letter."

As Lolth said this, Doyle showed a look of surprise.

"Oh dear, Lady Lolth, are you saying that about that knight… well, never mind," Doyle seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she just patted the little lamb that had bumped into her foot, "Anyway, the Demon King is very pleased with your work this time, so she plans to promote you…"

"Let’s talk about that after the battle is over," Lolth quickly waved her hands when she heard about the promotion, "And I’m just a little succubus; I can’t handle such a big responsibility!"

"Actually, the Demon King intends to promote you not just as a reward. Lady Lolth, you helped Her Excellency Shelldor and the others solve so many problems in Vera Plain, and Hillenbrand Town is so well-organized… your abilities in governance and management have been recognized by the Demon King."

As Doyle Candice said this, Lolth felt completely helpless.

"Alright, what have you turned me into?"

Seeing Lolth’s lack of enthusiasm, Doyle couldn’t help but admire Her Excellency Lolth’s great character once again.

"Don’t worry, Your Excellency Lolth, your main job is still focused on the Interrogation Department; it’s just that the Demon King appointed you as the Chief Consultant for the Demon Army’s livelihood issues… Rest assured, it’s just a leisurely position!"

After hearing it was a leisurely position, Lolth’s expression softened a bit, but she still had doubts in her heart.

"Chief Consultant… That doesn’t sound very relaxed."

But now that the title was on her, she couldn’t take it off, so Lolth had to accept it.

"Well then, does Her Excellency Doyle have anything else to do next?"

She looked at Doyle and asked.

"The official business is done; now I need to take care of some personal matters… So, Your Excellency Lolth, see you later."

After Doyle stood up to say goodbye, she turned and flew toward the window, opening it before flying out.

Just as Doyle left the reception room, she immediately took her communicator and contacted her subordinates.

"Lady Lolthlinda seems a bit down today and still has some residual Holy Light energy. Although she didn’t say anything, I suspect she has been attacked… Quickly find out what The Church of Light is planning lately — you are secretly in contact with the nobles of Seychelles, right? It doesn’t matter if they get exposed! The Demon King has instructed that Lady Lolth is the top priority!"

Inside the room, Lolth rubbed her forehead, shook her head, and sighed.

"There really is no good news at all."

She changed out of her farmer’s clothes, lifted the aura shield, and put on her usual T-shirt and pants before stepping out of the reception room.

As soon as she pushed open the door, she saw Isabella standing outside, looking dazed.

The knight’s eyes were unfocused, and she still held her hand as if carrying something, but the cup of tea she had been holding had fallen to the ground.

"Isabella?"

Lolth tentatively called out, and only then did the knight come to her senses.

She didn’t say a word, instead she turned and ran away.
