Chapter 772 Hyperion found a little gray cat
In the Demon King's Palace, whose dome is covered with celestial patterns, the blasphemous Lord Melogas looked at the princess on the throne with a look of relief.
very good.
His Highness's reaction was correct.
Only such a weak little girl can be firmly controlled by her.
Melogas stopped staring at Hyperion and turned his gaze to the audience, making other demons afraid to continue staring at her and the princess.
The throne room grew quieter.
Next, apart from the sound of the pendulum's gears turning, the two of them had no conversation.
Almost all the demons present here read the expression on Qing Qiang's face.
The Ice Witch was about to say something just now, but was quickly stopped by Pranay's eyes.
They were not the only four great demons in the throne room.
There is a high probability that the four of them will replace the confidant position of the current Demon Realm Princess. The other big demons are likely to be more neutral or blasphemous.
When you can't clearly see the position of other big demons, it's best not to provoke the terrifyingly powerful Lord Blasphemy.
It is best to first observe clearly the current situation in the demon world.
If there is one mistake, mission goal three, which requires everyone to survive, will fail.
The other side of the seats under the stage.
Antanas sighed.
Being familiar with Hyperion, she naturally understands that Hyperion's acting skills have reached perfection. Whether it is the fear now or the tears before, they are all too real. The blasphemous Lord has gradually let go of Hyperion. Be wary.
Hyperion has been a sentimental girl from the beginning. After her father disappeared, she would cry alone. The moment she learned of the death of Kaliela, her sadness was unspeakable.
After following Lan Qi for a long time, she understood that the best way for her to play is to choose a safe strategy to survive, and not to follow dangerous rhythms randomly. If she waits to meet Lan Qi and cooperates with him, she will definitely win.
In the world line predicted by the goddess of fate, Hyperion had little resistance and died quickly when facing an irresistible enemy.
All this helped Hyperion understand how to win the game.
The optimal solution must be to wait for Gulanqi to attack, rather than performing any fancy moves yourself.
Therefore, her cards gradually changed from offensive to defensive, and she learned how to survive by pretending to be weak and confusing the enemy.
But of course some people may not understand.
She even lamented that Hyperion was a useless princess.
On the throne.
Hyperion wiped her tears to herself.
Seeing that the Ice Witch teacher and Pranay and the others had reached a consensus on waiting and seeing, Hyperion was relieved.
Antanas and Sinora always look at Pranay's actions, while the Ice Witch has a more rigid temper.
The teacher cannot defeat the Blasphemy Lord. Not to mention that the Blasphemy Lord herself is at least as good as a Cardinal. The quasi-king of the Six Seals, the Blasphemy Lord, will allow her to produce powerful special attacks against other big demons. Even if the four of them attack together, they will be defeated. Quite dangerous.
There may also be many great demons in the throne room who support the blasphemous minister.
Although Hyperion was angry in her heart, she knew that the blasphemous Lord had taken away the fruits of Kaliera's victory to become the regent, but she knew that only by showing a weak and helpless look could she succeed. Gain the trust of the blasphemous minister.
One of the mission goals reminded her to protect the little spark left by Kaliela.
She won't act rashly until she finds the clue.
"It seems it's almost time."
The blasphemous Lord Melogas is currently overlooking the entire throne room as the regent.
She has a slender figure, and her black robe outlines her voluptuous curves, but she also exudes a sinister aura. Her hazy purple eyes sparkle with a soul-stirring edge.
Melogas raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
The moment the bell rang, she waved her hand gracefully, with purple flames dancing on her fingertips. A terrifying scream suddenly sounded in the throne room, and ghostly figures blocked the exit.
Many demons shuddered involuntarily and lowered their heads.
"Everyone, I have called you here today just to announce an important news, which is related to the future changes of our demon world."
Melogas looked around, his eyes scanning every demon clan, as sharp and cold as a sharp blade.
"I believe many of you have guessed it."
She spoke slowly, her voice was pleasant to the ear, but it conveyed unquestionable majesty.
The audience was completely silent, and no demon dared to answer.
"That's right, the Fallen Lord Kaliela has disappeared. From now on, there will be no Fallen Lord in the Demon World. And I, the Profane Lord, will take over Kaliera's responsibility and continue to support Her Royal Highness the Princess in leading the Demon World. This is coming soon. The prosperous times bring glory to the devil world."
Melogas sneered and continued,
"In the days of Kaliera, we were forced to sign the North-South Treaty with the Blood Tribe, which became a great shame in the history of the demon race, and we almost lost the princess to her. But I am different. Under my command, whether it is the Horning Empire or the Blood Tribe, They were all pushed back to the south, which means that we had the strength to become the overlord of this world, but it was only because of Kaliela's incompetence that the world was in its current state."
As she spoke, she turned her eyes sideways and observed Hyperion's expression.
"Merogas, you have gone too far! You should not..."
Finally, some old demons in the audience stood up and accused Melogas of his remarks.
Before he could stand up completely.
His body was pierced by a thread of magic power, and exploded, leaving only blood foam scattered in the air, streaking across the horrified faces of the surrounding demons and covered with fragments.
The end of the magic thread was being pulled by Melogas.
Melogas didn't seem to see the corpse, but just retracted his raised fingertips indifferently, letting the magic power dissipate.
The hall was silent again for a few moments.
Even the other demons, who are sensible, dare not speak out in anger.
The big demons who were the henchmen of the Kaliela faction had been killed and disabled in the fierce battles in the past twelve years, and almost all those who could be fought were sacrificed.
Melogas formed more gangs to protect herself during the war, but now her family is the sole leader.
"I accidentally heard some demons talking nonsense just now. I think no one will interrupt me next, right?"
The blasphemous Lord Melogas put his palms to his ears, tilted his face and looked around the audience.
This time no demons spoke again.
She was ready to speak again.
"But…"
Melogas changed the topic and his tone suddenly became cold.
"However, if Her Royal Highness the Princess still misses the old relationship and wants to continue to govern the demon world according to the strategy left by Kaliela, our great cause will be in vain. Everyone, tell me what I should do."
Melogas's words were like thunder on the ground, exploding in the throne room.
Demons, you look at me, I look at you, your eyes flicker, your scalp feels numb and your spine feels chilly.
There was something in Melorgas's words. He was clearly trying to shake the demon's loyalty to the princess, intending to replace her with her.
"Lord Melogas, with all due respect."
At this moment, a young demon's voice suddenly came from the seat, and he saluted Melogas full of flattery.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess finally returned to the Demon Realm back then, and she has never forgotten the human kingdom. In essence, she has long regarded herself as a human being, and Kaliela even more indulged her, creating such a weak and troubled person. A princess who can only cry, should we really let a human girl wearing demon skin take over?"
Before he finished speaking, there was only a "whoosh" sound, and a black light flashed through, sinking into the demon's chest like a bolt.
The demon's body froze, Gudong fell to the ground, and his body decomposed into thick water.
In the blink of an eye, another demon died.
Looking in the direction of the black light, I saw Profanity Qing raising her scorpion tail, pointing the thorn tip in the direction of the seat.
This time it was Melogas who made the move.
The other demons really didn't dare to say anything, and they didn't even dare to make the sound of swallowing.
Melogas went crazy.
"Humanity?"
Melogas glanced at the remains of the demons on the ground in the distance, and spoke in a solemn tone,
"Are you questioning our princess? If anyone dares to speak rudely to the princess again, I will not tolerate it at all."
She looked down at the audience arrogantly, and her whole body was full of murderous aura.
As soon as the words fell, the entire throne room was silent, and the demons were terrified.
She will kill even those who speak for her.
Melogas deliberately killed the demons who were clearly on her side just to establish her authority and show her loyalty and orthodoxy.
"Princess, I am the only one who will be so kind to you. Who calls me your aunt?"
The blasphemous Lord Melogas lowered his head, looked at Hyperion and said softly, the corners of his mouth trembling.
Hyperion clenched the armrest of the throne so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
She swallowed hard, feeling her throat was extremely dry.
If she could, she really wanted to ask her real aunt Thalia to beat up this bad aunt Melogas.
But the cruel reality is that Tata, the civil servant of the third seal, cannot be the opponent of Melogas, the general of the sixth seal. "It seems you understand my kindness, Your Highness."
And Hyperion's subtle performance made the smile on Melogas' face grow even wider.
She reached out to caress Hyperion's cheek, but considering the occasion, she slowly stopped.
But Merogath's scorpion tail gradually wrapped around Hyperion's throne, outlining the shape of a heart.
Although she was eager for the princess's body, she was not in a hurry.
Hyperion felt that Melogas' "good intentions" seemed more terrifying than his malice.
A chill rose from the soles of his feet and went straight to the sky.
This was her first time seeing this kind of female demon.
Unlike Kaliela, Hyperion felt no kindness or trust towards the blasphemous Lord Melogas.
On the contrary, one can only detect the endless desire and **** from her.
"Okay, everyone, relax, don't scare the princess."
Fortunately, the blasphemous Lord Melogas no longer focused on Hyperion. Instead, he let out a silver bell-like laughter and explained her opinions and important matters to the demons.
Hyperion spent a torturous time in the throne room, and finally waited until the end of the meeting.
She stood up with relief, walked down the steps and walked out of the palace under the watchful eyes of Melogas and the demons.
After leaving that suffocating space, she felt like she was breathing fresh air again.
At this time, if she took the initiative to find Pranay and the others, it would definitely arouse Melogas' vigilance and suspicion.
Just wait for Pranay and Antanas to contact you. With the special skills of the two of them, it is not difficult to bypass Melogas at the right time.
In the Demon Realm Palace, the main hall on the first floor is a huge circular regency hall.
Upstairs is the exclusive area for the royal family, including study rooms, bedrooms, conference rooms and many other configurations that a mansion should have.
In the past, except for the fallen minister Kaliela and the demons she approved, other demons were not allowed to enter the higher floors of the palace.
This practice seems to be still maintained.
Hyperion walked through the long corridor, with simple and thick stone pillars on both sides.
She quickened her pace, wanting to return to her room, a still familiar residence.
Finally, she reached the second floor of the palace and opened the door to her bedroom.
In the spacious bedroom, the purple sunset shines through the gauze curtains on the soft carpet.
Thick curtains blocked a small portion of the outside light.
Huberly looked at the room quietly. Outside the window was the palace garden and the barrier in the distance.
Her eyes penetrated the translucent barrier, overlooking the inland bay of the royal capital.
Last time.
It was in the restaurant across the bay that he found himself.
Then came a dreamlike midsummer that she would never forget.
But I didn't expect that when I returned to the Demon World again, everything had changed. Kaliela was no longer in the Demon King's Palace, and Lan Qi was no longer in the mansion across the bay.
Hyperion leaned against the door tiredly, took a deep breath, then felt her tense nerves relax a little, and went to completely open the curtains.
However, at this moment, she noticed something subtle movement under the dressing cabinet.
Hyperion felt nervous and subconsciously summoned her dagger.
But when she looked closely, she found that it was just a ball of gray fur.
She took two steps closer in confusion and squatted down.
Through the faint sunset, Hyperion could see clearly that it was a young gray cat, curled up in the shadow of the corner.
It didn't seem to like the light, and Hyperion's move of pulling down the curtains just now disturbed it.
Hyperion crouched in front of the dresser curiously.
The shadows of a man and a cat stare at each other on the carpet.
The gray kitten is thin, has scars on its body, its eyes are dim and withdrawn, and it is full of vigilance.
The more Hyperion looked at it, the more she felt an indescribable sense of intimacy with this little gray cat.
The familiar demonic magic convinced Hyperion that this was not a kitten, but a demon child disguised as a cat and huddled in the corner.
The pendant on its chest is engraved with the demonic character "Tamisha".
Hyperion stretched out her hand tentatively.
The gray kitten also backed away.
But beyond it is the wall, which is inevitable.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
Hyperion slowed down the speed of approaching it and said softly.
Finally, she gently hugged the little gray cat.
The moment you touch it.
Hyperion felt a familiar magic power.
A warm current began to resonate along Hyperion's fingertips.
It seems to be the last fire left by Kaliela.
There is no doubt that this child of the demon clan has inherited part of Kaliela's most original power.
"That's great...it's the life you protect."
Tears flowed down Hyperion's fair cheeks, and she tried hard to force a smile.
Hyperion held it close to her chest, her tears looking bitter but full of relief and emotion.
She looked at the wounds on the little gray cat's body with distress, quickly put it on the mattress, and started looking for good medicine from the cabinet.
Lord Blasphemy seems to hate this kitten with the breath of Caliella, so he likes to abuse it, but he has not killed it for the time being due to some scruples, so that the already young gray cat has become completely autistic. Now seeing Hyperion is particularly hostile.
When Hyperion turned around with the medicine box.
Only to find that the little gray cat jumped back under the dressing cabinet and stayed alone in the shadows.
"So you hate staying here so much..."
Hyperion lowered her eyes in pain and relief and said to the little gray cat.
No wonder, in this cage-like palace, the little gray cat may just be waiting for Kaliela, hoping that Kaliela will come back to find it one day.
However, Caliera will never come back.
It may indeed be dangerous to continue to stay here. The uncertain Lord of Profanity may soon begin to clear out the things left behind by Kaliela.
"It doesn't matter, let's go together."
Hyperion once again took out the little gray cat from under the dressing cabinet.
She glanced at the eyeshadow world information.
[Mission Objective 1: Protect the little spark left by Kaliela. 】
[Mission Objective 2: Understand the state of mind of Lancross of the Black Sun: 0.13%. (Unfinished)]
I didn't look at it for a while, but there were some changes in mission objective two.
Although she still doesn't understand what mission objective two is, mission objective one has become clear to her.
If you want to be safest, you must go to the demon clan's ancestral land in Pascual, the purgatory city.
As the only orthodox royal family today, as long as she stays in the ancestral land of the demons, no demons can threaten her.
Therefore, her mission goal can also be understood as successfully reaching the ancestral land.
"Shall we go together?"
Hyperion murmured to herself, her tone full of relief,
"Go to a safe place, then you won't have demons bullying you."
She closed her eyes and pressed her cheek against the gray kitten that had the magical aura of Kaliela.
The little gray cat ignored Hyperion.
He just used his claws to push her away.
It doesn't like this young demon woman pretending to be like a mother, and is not even willing to change back to human form in front of her.
No one can tame it.
It will never hand over Kaliela's treasure.
