Chapter 94: Lord Lolth Is as Wise as the Demon King!

Achilles did not intend to roast all the people in Cassilda City alive; she was not even doing these things for her own comfort.

Since all the Balrogs of The Seventh Legion were soaking in lava pools they dug in the mountains outside the city, Achilles used precious lava and hellstone for the construction of Cassilda, following the Demon King’s instruction of "treating the people well."

She simply thought the residents of Cassilda City might be too cold.

"People can live in such a cold place?! No wonder everyone here looks so sickly! Those human nobles don’t even share lava with the people, they are incredibly foolish!"

This was the Balrog leader’s retelling of Achilles’ original words while lighting the hellstone on fire.

After hearing this, Lolth stopped everything before the average temperature of Cassilda City rose to thirty-nine degrees and residents started fainting from heatstroke. She then went to the Balrog settlement that Achilles built outside the city, pulled Achilles out of the largest lava pool where she was bathing, and spent half an hour explaining to her about the ideal human living temperature and why lava cannot flow in the moat.

Although Achilles’ stubbornness resurfaced at first, but…

Faced with the facts and the serious aura of Lolth, Achilles eventually admitted her mistake and personally apologized to the residents of Cassilda City.

"I, Balrog Achilles, have made errors of experientialism and dogmatism in the construction of Cassilda City. I failed to realize the different temperature requirements of humans and Balrogs for their living environment. I wrongly believed that high temperatures are always better, causing great inconvenience to all residents. Under the guidance of Master Lolthlinda, I deeply acknowledge the mistakes I made due to ignorance and arrogance. I sincerely apologize for this! I hope that you can forgive my mistakes, and I will strive to improve myself, listen to your feedback, and lead The Seventh Legion of Balrogs to continue to live harmoniously with all residents!"

"Furthermore, to compensate for my faults, all residents of Cassilda City can receive two free pieces of Hellstone, a type of brick that stores heat energy. As winter approaches this year, it can be used for heating… After the stored heat energy is depleted, I promise that any resident can also receive free recharging from any stationed Balrog guard or patrol member. I also hope that you can forgive me for my mistakes."

This apology statement in Cassilda City received a positive response, as knowing that Achilles did not intentionally want to suffer from heatstroke led to a great change in the perception of her!

Moreover, why would nobles and lords apologize for their mistakes to a commoner?

They even proposed a compensation plan… It’s unbelievable!

Are this group of demons really so wicked?

The people of Cassilda City began to see things differently.

Lolth didn’t realize the impact her actions had caused.

After finishing her tasks, she spent a normal night in Cassilda City, enjoying the clear moat and the now harder cobblestone streets. She ate the delicious food made by the residents, and then set off again with a pile of magic materials provided by Achilles.

Shortly after Lolth left…

Doyle Candice also arrived in Cassilda City!

"Hmm… the Demon King ordered us to keep a close eye on Achilles this time, as Balrog can easily cause trouble due to his fiery temper."

Little Devil flew into Cassilda City and saw a long line of residents forming in the square.

Achilles and a group of Balrogs extinguished their flames and stood in front of the residents, handing out dark red bricks.

"Be careful not to touch the heat release button, it’s hot!"

"When heating indoors daily, just turn it on the lowest setting. Master Lolthlinda said if you turn it on high, you’ll get too hot!"

"Because it uses magic energy to heat up, it can’t be used to boil water or cook!"

Achilles stored heat in the hellstone on his hand while yelling at the residents.

Doyle found this scene very strange.

"Achilles… What are you doing?"

Doyle flew up to Achilles.

Seeing the figure of the Little Devil, Achilles temporarily handed the hellstone to his subordinate and greeted this messenger representing the demon king.

"His Excellency Doyle, I am distributing hellstones to the residents of Cassilda City," Achilles replied.

Achilles answered.

"I can see that," Doyle waved his hand and asked, "But why are you distributing this?"

"Um… well…"

In front of Doyle, Achilles honestly explained the whole story and Lolth’s instructions.

Hearing Lolth’s name, Doyle smiled knowingly.

"Oh my… Is this the work of Lord Lolth indeed…"

She said so, and Achilles agreed, "Yes, if it wasn’t for Master Lolth… I might have caused a big disaster!"

Unlike Zakavido’s planting of the Withered Spirit Rose, which disgusted people, if Achilles really covered every road with Hell Rock, people might start dying of heatstroke on a large scale in a few days!

After all, a city with an average temperature of fifty degrees is not suitable for ordinary people to stay in!

She would probably end up having her magic drained and being thrown into an ice cave for a hundred and eighty years.

Speaking of this, Achilles felt relieved.

"Thank you, Master Lolth… By the way, Your Excellency Doyle, did Demon King give any orders for you to come to Cassilda this time?"

"Well, Demon King asked me to do two things in Cassilda. The first is to distribute the wages and salaries of The Seventh Legion and Balrog for this month, and also to inform you that the supplies for Balrog’s territory in the Abyss are on their way…"

Doyle took out a space magic bag, which was filled with magic crystals.

"Thank you to Demon King," Achilles graciously accepted the magic bag and respectfully asked Doyle, "So, Lord Doyle, what is the second thing?"

"It seems there’s no need to do the second thing now… The situation at the Abyss is the same, Lord Lolth has already taken the lead," Doyle waved his hand, "Just as expected, Lord Lolth is as insightful as Demon King – well, she should be heading to Shelldor next, I need to catch up with her quickly this time!"
