Chapter 149: Lady Lolth Led Five Sheep Across the New West Line!
After three days of the Holy Alliance, organized by the United Kingdom of South Sotua, being crushed by the Demon Army, Doyle Candice finally received information from her network in the Demon King Castle.
After reviewing the information that her subordinates gathered through persuasion, trading, and negotiation, Doyle Candice quickly headed towards the Demon Tower.
Arriving in the Abyssal Hall, Doyle Candice walked to the Demon King’s throne and placed the information at the feet of the enormous armor.
"Demon King, I have uncovered some matters… I need to report to you."
"Go ahead, Lady Doyle."
The Demon King quickly agreed to Doyle’s request.
Doyle slightly bowed and then began to speak.
"Alright, Demon King."
"First is the matter that Lady Lolthlinda asked about, to let the commander of the Holy Alliance go… According to the information from my little devil messengers who secretly contacted the nobles of Seychelles and the United Kingdom of South Sotua, there is serious mutual suspicion between the United Kingdom of South Sotua and several Orc tribes. Furthermore, Sha Du Duo Te mentioned Lady Lolth’s name at the front lines, and it seems the Holy Alliance has discovered that Lady Lolth’s race is succubus. They believe that someone among them might have been charmed and is secretly in league with us, which has leaked this plan to us."
Upon hearing Doyle’s report, the Demon King couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"Ah ha ha, Dear Lolth’s planning really knows how to exploit ‘human nature’ so thoroughly. No wonder she is the most ‘special’ existence of the succubus clan in thousands of years."
"Yes, Demon King, I’m afraid that in the coming months, the several strongholds guarded largely by the United Kingdom of South Sotua will undergo great changes, and some high-level combat power will be lost," Doyle said, also unable to resist praising, "This is all thanks to Lady Lolth’s strategy and your sharp insight into her intentions."
"No, I’m not as meticulous as Dear Lolth. If it weren’t for her suggestion, I wouldn’t have thought of this," the Demon King said in a booming voice, then added with some emotion, "But let’s put that aside for now… The matter you mentioned earlier about Dear Lolth being touched by Holy Light, have you found any clues?"
When it came to this matter, although the Demon King’s huge voice sounded like thousands of people shouting together, making it hard to discern any emotions or tone, Doyle still noticed that this Demon King showed a rare anger.
The Demon King felt angry that someone dared to lay hands on Lady Lolth, to the point where she could not hide it.
This matter made Doyle reaffirm Lolth’s status, and then she began to report it.
"I have some clues, Demon King. I came to report this matter," Doyle said, then showed a slight bitter smile, "But… things seem to be very different from what we imagined."
"Oh?"
The Demon King felt puzzled and questioned upon hearing Doyle’s words.
"The thing is, we learned that the Church of Light’s direct knight group, ‘Oracles,’ has arrived in the New West, and it seems the Church of Light is planning to take action. However, on the very same day the ‘Oracles’ arrived, based on my experience in Hillenbrand Town, Lady Lolth happened to be out ‘secretly.’"
"Moreover, according to the nobles in Seychelles, it seems that when the ‘Oracles’ arrived, their leader, Janine Irene, encountered some issues… If we count the time, it matches when Lady Lolth disappeared."
"When I saw Lady Lolth that day, she also seemed to have just teleported back from a distant place, dressed as a human peasant farmer, and she was bringing five lambs."
"Coincidentally, the Oracle of the New Western Line and The Church of Light in the many churches of Seychelles are both working hard to find a human girl named ‘Kululu,’ who has five lambs with her."
After Doyle finished speaking, the entire Abyssal Hall fell into an eerie silence for a few seconds.
Then, a huge laugh, unlike anything before, erupted from inside the Demon King’s armor.
"Hahaha—hahaha—Dear Lolth actually predicted the actions of The Church of Light? That’s amazing! She even dared to take the risk to see for herself, but," the Demon King struggled to stop laughing, praised her a bit more, then couldn’t help it, "Kululu and the five lambs are just too strange! And that group of foolish pigs from The Church of Light is still looking for the human girl ‘Kululu,’ being led around by Dear Lolth and her five little lambs—it’s been a long time since I’ve heard something so funny!"
Even the armor made a clattering sound.
Doyle felt like laughing too after the Demon King’s amusement, but she dared not laugh out loud. Instead, she pressed her hand against the tip of her wing to keep herself from laughing and continued to speak.
"Yes, but in my opinion, it is rare for Lady Lolth to personally get involved this time, which shows that The Church of Light seems to be planning something big," Doyle said, her body trembling slightly, "Demon King, should we ask Lady Lolth if she has any new information or insights?"
Upon hearing Doyle’s words, even the Demon King’s armor, which had been still for ages, waved its hand, and the laughter continued to echo in the Abyssal Hall.
A few minutes later, the Demon King seemed to have calmed down.
"I discovered that Doyle, you recently like to find opportunities to run into Dear Lolth’s territory… Is there something good for you there?"
When the Demon King asked this, Doyle Candice was momentarily stunned and then showed a faint smile.
"It seems I can’t hide it from you, Demon King… However, I originally planned to report this after Lady Lolthlinda’s harvest," Doyle said, starting to describe her experiences in Hillenbrand Town. "I saw crops that can solve the food problems of various races on the continent… At the same time, I indeed found some business opportunities…"
Doyle truthfully reported to the Demon King about the farms and novel crops she saw in Hillenbrand Town, the hardworking Superoperators, and her dealings with Kanor.
Upon hearing this, the Demon King nodded.
"No wonder the Abyssal Crystals I gave her was used to buy various seeds and young animals; it turns out she had this plan," the Demon King said, continuing, "So here’s the plan: after the harvest, you should go to Hillenbrand Town and let her fulfill her duties as the Chief Consultant for the people’s livelihood. She should promote these models everywhere—if she’s busy, she can use Gilding Mercenary Group coins to invite the talented people she trained to guide the construction in various places… As for the intelligence from the new west line, if she doesn’t present it soon, you can also ask her about it then!"
