Chapter 378: The Lord of the Demon King Also Understood!
From Doyle Candice’s point of view, Lolth’s office was very much "well-prepared."
A complete set of gear that would allow Lord Lolth to blend in perfectly with the United Kingdom of South Sotua, along with lingering signs showing that Lord Lolth was ready for a full advance scouting of the half-plane, plus Lord Lolth’s previous experience alone on the west front to investigate the movements of The Church of Light, made Doyle Candice realize!
Far away in the Demon King Castle, the Lord of the Demon King discovered the opening of this half-plane channel, and Lord Lolth also noticed it in Hillenbrand Town.
So, Lord Lolth must definitely have plans for this half-plane!
As the Lord of the Demon King decided to reward Lord Lolth with the exploration rights of this half-plane, Lord Lolth had already made her own plans.
Truly worthy of Lord Lolth…
However, with this statement, the "reward" from the Lord of the Demon King seems to conflict with Lady Lolth.
This matter was no longer something Doyle could decide on her own.
Therefore, Doyle naturally began communication with the Demon King.
"Lady Lolth, please wait a moment, I will ask the Lord of the Demon King."
As Doyle Candice spoke, she put away the detector and took out the device that could directly connect to the Demon King.
At that moment, Lolth did not realize the seriousness of the situation; she was completely unaware of Doyle’s feelings.
Thus, in Lolth’s eyes, Doyle "contacting the Demon King" meant she listened to her and decided to convey her thoughts honestly to the Demon King.
She did not know that Doyle had figured out her "motives" and "reasons."
Therefore, Lolth did not stop Doyle Candice’s actions.
She even thanked this Little Devil with a hint of happiness.
"Then I will trouble you, Lady Doyle!"
Lolth said this and then watched as Doyle took out the communication device made from the magical crystal.
A spark of magic was poured into it, and the crystal shone faintly.
Clearly, Doyle, as a trusted confidant favored by the Demon King, had the privilege to call the Demon King at any time.
After the crystal flickered for a moment, the voice of the Demon King came from it.
"What is it, Lady Doyle?"
The voice of the Demon King came from the crystal.
However, unlike the graceful and cool female voice heard in Hillenbrand Town, it transformed back into the deep, overlapping voice of the Demon King, resembling a choir.
"It’s like this, Lord of the Demon King," Doyle glanced at Lolth, seeing her eager eyes, and continued, "The reward you gave to Lady Lolth, her situation does not allow her to accept it… Lady Lolth herself suggested that you do not need to ‘send out a legion’ to push on the western front to secure the exploration rights of the half-plane for her."
"Oh… it could be done, but is it because Dear Lolth is facing some trouble?"
Upon hearing Doyle’s words, the Demon King immediately asked with concern.
"No… not at all, in fact, it’s the opposite, Lord of the Demon King," Doyle Candice replied, "I felt the presence of the half-plane you mentioned here in Lady Lolth’s torture tower… Lady Lolth has also allowed my communications and reports, so I think she has long sensed the existence of this half-plane and has already devised her own plan and method to enter it!"
At this point, Doyle looked at the paper bag on the table and continued, "And I believe that Lady Lolth’s plan has a high chance of success, she seems to have found a way to disguise herself as a mercenary!"
Upon hearing Doyle Candice’s report, the Demon King showed a hint of joy in her tone.
"As expected of Dear Lolth, sharper than I imagined… In that case, using this as a ‘reward’ is indeed not appropriate, since Dear Lolth has already come up with a plan to infiltrate South Sotua and explore using the power of the human realm… If I were to call this ‘merit’ a ‘reward,’ I would be too stingy!"
While the Demon King said this over the communication, Doyle looked admirably towards Lolth.
And standing beside them was Lolth…
She was completely stunned!
She finally understood how her past "achievements" came about.
First, Doyle Candice added some fuel to the fire in her report.
Then, the Lord of the Demon King made some wild analyses here.
The final outcome was that no matter what happened, it would always be her own scheme, even if nothing had happened yet.
Sure enough, the Lord of the Demon King’s way of thinking was quite strange…
But when Lolth came back to her senses, she realized this was actually a good thing.
Because the entire process was happening right in front of her eyes.
So, she still had a chance to clarify things before everything was set in stone!
"What is this? It’s completely wrong! How did it turn into me exploring ancient ruins in the half-plane and sneaking into South Sotua? That’s just not true!"
Lolth quickly shouted at Doyle and the Communication Crystal.
Then, both the Demon King and Doyle fell silent.
After a brief silence, the voice of the Demon King came through the crystal, filled with understanding.
"I understand now."
"The Chief Interrogator of the Demon Army and the Chief Consultant of the occupied area, ‘Lolthlinda,’ did not sneak into the United Kingdom of South Sotua or enter the ancient ruins in the half-plane."
"’Lolthlinda’ will head to the Abyss to carry out some tasks that I personally assigned."
"I will officially announce this… so you can go without worry, Dear Lolth."
The voice of the Lord of the Demon King said, and Doyle immediately agreed.
"I understand, the Lord of the Demon King… I will go now to spread the message within the Demon Army as a messenger."
"Lady Lolth really went to the Abyss!"
Lolth, listening to the Demon King’s words, felt even more confused.
She realized that the Demon King was probably "cooperating with her" to keep her actions secret.
But…
This was a huge misunderstanding; she had no plans for any actions at all!
Lolth looked at Doyle and the Communication Crystal in her hand that connected directly to the Demon King, preparing to explain something.
"I look forward to the surprise your ‘mission completion’ will bring me, Dear Lolth."
The Communication Crystal flickered once, then disconnected.
Doyle looked at Lolth and smiled, saying, "The Lord of the Demon King takes this half-plane very seriously… So, do your best, Lady Lolth!"
"I need to go back and gather evidence for your ‘Journey to the Abyss.’"
After saying that, the Little Devil flapped its wings and flew out the window.
It gave Lolth no chance to explain anything.
Lolth watched Doyle Candice’s departing figure and opened her mouth.
After a long while, she finally said two words.
"…Alright."
