Chapter 230: Achievement Unlocked: Fame Emerges and a New Star Rises!

After being reminded by Isabella, Lolth felt her head spin again.

I tried very hard to keep a low profile, but in the end, I still attracted quite a bit of attention.

The only thing I can be thankful for is that I used the false name "Kululu," hoping to confuse the Great Sage named Patricia.

But then I remembered that Kululu is also in Hillenbrand Town, and that made Lolth a bit less happy.

"I should have said I was Doyle Candice from the start—"

Lolth felt very regretful about this.

However, she still believed that the situation was not as bad as Isabella imagined.

Even though she knew this was the location of the torture tower and there were many captives gathered here, without solid evidence, the other forces of the Holy Alliance would likely see this as just a coincidence and a place for the Demon Army to hold prisoners.

The Church of Light would definitely try hard to keep the news about the Divine Artifact under wraps… Lolth believed in the power of the largest church on this continent to control the narrative.

That guy Patricia wouldn’t just sell herself out, and besides, she might not have noticed anything suspicious.

So in the end, what we have to deal with is probably the Church of Light’s actions aimed at the Divine Artifact, as well as the usual "rescue" or "deal with traitors" actions.

These are tricky, but also expected. Moreover, this part of the pressure will certainly fall on several other legions and the Demon King Castle. If the sky falls, there will be a tall person to hold it up, so Lolth thinks the problem isn’t too big.

If it really gets bad, I can just run away—if they really come with several legendary heroes, as an Elite Level succubus, there’s no way I can fight; running away to the Demon King Castle is also a very reasonable choice, right?

Even if they come for Hillenbrand Town, come for the captives, or come for the Light Artifact, they certainly won’t be coming for me.

Thinking this, Lolth also felt more at ease.

"Don’t worry too much, it’s not a big problem… If any strong invaders do come, there’s no need to fight to the death."

Saying this to Isabella, she also seems to agree with Isabella’s special training at the police station.

"I understand—my requirement for them has always been to delay and report as quickly as possible."

Isabella also responded very well.

However, all of Lolth’s guesses were ultimately based on the fact that the Holy Alliance only noticed "Hillenbrand Town" and did not pay attention to "Interrogation Department" and "Lolth."

She did not realize that her high reputation in the Demon Army had already spread to the Holy Alliance.

There was no need for any spies from the Demon Army; it was simply because the soldiers on the front line often talked about stories of Lolth, who mainly got her fame from Doyle and the Demon King, saying things like "Interrogation Department Lord Lolth cleverly took the West," "Great Master Lolth easily captured the remaining troops," "Without Lolthlinda, there would be no great victory in the West," and "A legendary strong person was charmed by Lord Lolth and devoted to the Abyss," accompanied by the laughter of the Abyssal Demons and their cheers of "Demon King is invincible, Lord Lolth is unmatched." Anyone who wasn’t foolish could notice the name of this demon race that had suddenly appeared so frequently.

Especially when the powerful figure of the Illusion Demon King laughed coldly in front of the South Sotua commander and the Dwarf King, saying, "Everything you do is under Master Lolth’s plan," which greatly increased the Holy Alliance’s attention to Lolth.

Although several actions made the Holy Alliance suspect that there might be a traitor.

But how the traitor was corrupted is worth thinking about.

The Demon Army must have a traitor leader!

After some inquiry, Lolth, Interrogation Department, succubus, highly favored by the Demon King… Done deal.

The entire continent has realized that the Demon Army, which used to fight mindlessly, suddenly seems to have become clever and is now playing tricks, even planting spies, which must be related to the succubus that has been frequently mentioned around the same time by the demon race.

The plot was definitely designed by a cunning succubus, and the information was lured out by that succubus tempting the captives. The traitors were probably also turned by the succubus!

Everything makes sense now.

Especially since the Church of Light and the Great Sage seemed to have suffered setbacks in the territory where the succubus was holding the captives, all the powers and high-ranking officials almost instantly noticed the existence of "Lolth."

Of course, most of the powers didn’t really see Lolth as a threat like a legionnaire leader and didn’t elevate her strategic importance significantly.

After all, she is just the head of the Interrogation Department, like those active Little Devils… Although she can influence some parts of the battle, she is not a decisive factor in determining victory or defeat.

After all, in the eyes of these powers, they just didn’t know about the existence of succubi before, which is why they fell into the trap and suffered losses, as they were secretly schemed against.

With a little caution, the outcome would certainly be very different.

Moreover, the most crucial factor in this world is always advanced combat power.

This succubus is not good at direct combat, so even with epic and legendary strength, she is not to be feared.

Besides, the information shows that this guy seems to be just an "Elite Level" succubus—probably useless except for her mind, tactics, and charm.

But anyway, we need to investigate the spy, and this succubus needs to be watched closely.

Different powerful groups have changed their strategies regarding Lolth, this newly appeared presence.

Although most strategies are still about "keeping watch" and "staying alert," which are not very important, there are indeed a few groups that have taken real action.

Within the Holy Lieto Empire, part of the Church of Light, the remaining two Grand Knight leaders, each red-robed bishop, Privy Council bishop, and the powerful nobles of the empire are discussing everything that happened in "Hillenbrand Town."

"The Light Artifact was thrown into the demon race’s Hillenbrand Town by the Lady of Light?"

"You can’t say that the Lady of Light threw it—after all, she almost retrieved it, but just couldn’t!"

"I’ve heard that place belongs to a rather strange succubus… But how did the succubus stop the staff from returning?"

"It’s hard to say… but we should send someone to take a look."

"Are there any spies who can do the job now?"

"Those sent out must be ready to be abandoned…"

Such conversations continually take place in the hidden rooms of towns and churches across the Holy Lieto Empire.

The final result is that the hidden powers of various bishops and nobles began to move against each other, with countless spies all aiming for the New West Line, and even… Hillenbrand Town!
