Chapter 308: The Lord of the Demon King’s Decision to Go Incognito

Inside the Demon King Castle, Doyle Candice, who handled various documents for the Demon King, let out a long sigh after neatly stacking the reports she had annotated.

"The Lord of the Demon King’s job is truly hard… I just can’t do it!"

Although it seemed like the Lord of the Demon King annotated quickly and most documents didn’t take more than a minute, Doyle completely couldn’t manage it.

After feeling even more admiration for the Demon King, Doyle couldn’t help but feel relieved.

She was glad that the entire continent had recently entered a period of quiet restoration.

Thanks to Lady Lolth, both the Republic of Seychelles and the United Kingdom of South Sotua had calmed down.

Other forces, being intimidated, also had no plans to take action for the time being.

Of course, the main reason is still… the influence of the clashes between the divine beings, which also invisibly affects the situation on the continent.

Behind the powerful forces that stand firm on the continent, there are almost always shadows of gods and churches.

This is true for nations, races, and tribes… very few exceptions exist.

Therefore, even though it is merely a test and warning to the gods, during this time, no one will act recklessly.

The Demon Army shares the same reasoning; since the Demon King is not present, they have reached an understanding with the Holy Alliance.

This can even be described as an unspoken "ceasefire period."

However, a ceasefire period does not mean that nothing is happening.

After the temporary Demon King finished her matters, the door of "Eternity Between," where Doyle Candice resided and where the Demon King usually handled state affairs, was knocked on.

"Come in."

Doyle said as the door was pushed open.

Flying in was another Little Devil.

"Master Doyle—there is a report from the guild about Master Lolth and Hillenbrand Town!"

The Little Devil said briefly, presenting the report in hand.

Doyle was quite surprised to hear the Little Devil’s words.

"A guild report… how could it be related to Lady Lolth?"

The guild mentioned by the Little Devil naturally refers to the Little Devil Guild.

The combination of the guild and Lolth was undoubtedly surprising even for Doyle, the leader of the guild.

But after looking at the report, Doyle was left in a daze.

"What… the trade volume in Hillenbrand Town has increased by four thousand percent… how is that possible?"

It’s only been a few days since I last saw it, how could it have changed like this!

Doyle was taken aback for a moment; although she was surprised, she quickly calmed down.

Hillenbrand Town is, after all, Lord Lolth’s territory.

So, it is not surprising if Lord Lolth did something unexpected that shocked everyone.

After all, that is Lord Lolth!

As she continued to read, Doyle realized that her thinking was not wrong.

"Taming magical beasts and using mercenaries from the United Kingdom of South Sotua to build public transportation… is this the work of Lord Lolth?"

"Just like the transport teams for Lemures and trolls?"

Doyle murmured as she looked up, but the Little Devil shook her head.

"Not quite, Master Doyle," the Little Devil said, thinking a little to organize her words, and continued explaining, "Actually, the ‘Public Transport’ created by Master Lolth does not leave just because there is a demand; it runs along a set route at fixed times."

Doyle was also considered a smart person, rare in the Abyss, especially gifted in business matters.

So when her subordinate spoke, Doyle understood better.

"Lady Lolth is really clever… This way is indeed better than the transportation team’s model… when it comes to ‘Public Transport’…"

Doyle murmured this and quickly looked at the report again.

Besides public transport, this report also contained many thoughts from Little Devil "interviews" with those who returned from Hillenbrand Town.

Most of them were about being "shocked" and "impressed."

"The food served to those common people in the cafeteria is even tastier than what is offered in noble houses!"

"Magical crops and magical animals… I can actually easily buy the ingredients for those foods!"

"The farming tools are enchanted, that’s so crazy!"

"And there’s a ‘school’… Can commoners really learn extraordinary powers here? And it only costs two copper coins to audit!"

"The ‘hospital’ is also unbelievable, a bottle of first-level Magic Potion and a formal-level Superoperator can heal injuries for just a few silver coins!"

"I heard that the people of Hillenbrand Town have ‘insurance’ and ‘subsidies’, making healthcare, education, and food much cheaper!"

"Even the farms are built with magical materials!"

"The street lighting is powered by magic, so extravagant!"

"The municipal staff of Hillenbrand Town told me that there will be an immigration policy opening up in the future, I’m a bit tempted!"

Doyle Candice looked at the comments and realized she had underestimated Lady Lolth!

"What happened before was just a small happening after all…"

Doyle Candice gasped in shock.

Earlier, she had already realized that Hillenbrand Town held business opportunities, and she even signed an agreement with Kanor ahead of time.

But Doyle didn’t expect that this "opportunity" would be so enormous!

And just by not going for a moment, Lady Lolth had given her so many surprises!

It was like missing out on a fortune!

"After the Demon King returns, I must find another chance to visit Hillenbrand Town!"

Doyle couldn’t help but express her thoughts.

Just as her words faded, a loud voice echoed by her ear.

"Then you can get ready to leave now, Lady Doyle!"

Doyle was startled when she heard the voice, and then she showed a surprised expression.

"You have returned, the Lord of the Demon King!"

"Not yet, but I will be there soon," the voice of the Demon King came again, but it sounded as if she was already in the Demon King Castle. "As soon as I returned to the main plane… I heard something incredible. What trouble has Dear Lolth caused now?"

Doyle immediately began to report to the Demon King.

After hearing Doyle’s report, the Demon King was silent for a long time before she spoke again.

"Indeed, Dear Lolth’s land, Hillenbrand Town, is worth a visit now!"

After being silent for a moment, the Demon King spoke again.

"Not just you, Lady Doyle; I should also go there… Even if Dear Lolth hasn’t made Hillenbrand Town so flourishing, considering all the past matters, I must go and see."

Doyle listened to these words and showed an expression of surprise.

"The Lord of the Demon King, are you going to come to Hillenbrand Town? Should I notify someone in advance?"

"No need, Lady Doyle."

"I plan to go secretly to Hillenbrand without alarming Dear Lolth!"
