After the Demon King disappeared, they regretted it

Ruby City, East District.

Inside the hotel.

Several heroes were silent with each other, and there was nothing to say to each other.

Compared to when they first entered Ruby City.

The change is really huge!

It has only been less than a few days, and the atmosphere in the team has become like this.

The Sword Saint felt a little uncomfortable....

As a saint, she wanted to ease the atmosphere in the team.

But she didn't know where to start!

She found the team's mascot and came to ask Aqua:"Aqua......Wanna go out for a drink together?"

"Didn't you say before that there's a store nearby that sells pretty good wine?"

Aqua went to check on the other people.

Cui sat on the bed, wiping her sword without saying a word.

Huihui lay on the bed, covering her face with a hat.

In the other room, Fulilian hadn't spoken a word since she came back.

The only person who was yelling was Is who was arrested!

Aqua smiled wryly and said to the Sword Saint,"Isn't it inappropriate to go drink now?"

The Sword Saint had a similar expression,"That's true......."

"" Alas!"

She sighed helplessly.

How come the originally united team of heroes is now falling apart?......

It's a good thing that they defeated the Demon King!

How can they live up to their status as heroes?

"If you want to blame someone, blame the sick city of Ruby City."

Aqua could only blame Ruby City for the problem.

After all,......

No matter Fulilian's decision or Huihui's anger, no one did anything wrong!

The purpose of coming to the Ruby City was to destroy this product that represented the will of the Demon King.

If everyone left......

Who else can destroy it?

Darkness is a remnant of the ancient Kingdom of Belzer, so it is most appropriate for him to take Princess Alice away.

Besides, leaving the Ruby City is still a precondition of breaking in.

One more person means one more danger!

So......

Although there are some problems with Fulilian's proposal, it is also the best solution!

But Darkness and Huihui have a good relationship!

The Crimson Demon Village where they were at that time was completely destroyed by the demons ten years ago.

She fled there alone. She met Darkness who also lost his home!

The two of them relied on each other and helped each other to have what they have now.

Huihui was angry with Fulilian.

It was also understandable!

No one can be blamed, and no one can convince those two people!

The only thing to blame is the sick city, the Ruby City!

The Sword Saint also agreed with Aqua's words:"Well......"

"Ruby City, a city that shouldn't exist in the world."

Two days passed in a flash.

Darkness lay on a mattress filled with velvet, her whole body still sunk into the bed.

She struggled with her eyelids in pain.

Finally, she opened them!

Darkness sat up again, and the quilt covering her body slipped down.

She glanced at the quilt, and then looked around.

There was not much furniture around, only a desk and a bookshelf.

There was a door about three meters away from the bed.

The decoration in the room couldn't be simpler!

Through the window, you can directly see the Ruby City house!

This made Darkness sure that she was no longer in the dungeon!

"Where is this?"

Darkness's memory was still stuck at the time when her father told her a lot of stories about the Demon King. When she thought of the Demon King,

Darkness couldn't help but tighten the quilt in her hands.

If what her father said was true, then...

Killing the devil is the most unwise choice!

But it is better to find out where this is.

"Hey, are you awake?"

I heard the voice before I saw him.

The voice seemed familiar....

Where have you heard this before?

Darkness slashed at the sound. An elf pushed the door open and walked into the room, holding a cup of water in her hand.

Darkness had seen that elf before!

Celia.

The elf who caught her at the gate and appeared next to the Lord of Ruby City!

"Why are you here?"

Darkness blurted out the doubt in his heart.

Celia leaned against the wall, one arm around her chest, and the other hand held a cup of water in front of her mouth.

Celia said with a lazy face:"My family"

"Ignis gave you to me."

Ignis also thought about giving Darkness to someone else.

But except Celia, everyone was full of hostility towards Darkness.

The Lord of Ruby City, Albedo, or others.

Only Celia didn't have any.

On the contrary, she was very interested in Darkness!

The reason was simple.

Although the brave had magic tools given by the Demon King's army cadres, the Demon King was not in good condition at that time.

But...

Celia has a very clear understanding of the opponent's strength!

Even if Su Heng is in a semi-crippled stage.

It is just a matter of moving a finger to destroy the brave group!

So she wants to know more from Darkness, how they destroyed the demon king.

Darkness's face is not happy:"So it was my father......."

A mocking smile appeared on Celia's lips:"You are now being condemned by everyone."

"If I wasn't interested in you, I'm afraid no one would take you in, and you would still be staying in the dungeon!"

Darkness couldn't help but ask,"Where's my father?"

Celia didn't answer immediately, but took a sip of the black tea in the cup:

"Well, it tastes dozens of levels better than the tea sold outside."

After a while, Celia finally responded,"After your father handed you over to me, he returned to the East District to continue his work."

"That is the grain area, which controls almost all the food for the people in Ruby City."

"He needs to go back and make plans for the future after the city is locked down."

Is that the case?...

Darkness clenched her fists unwillingly.

She knew her father well, a man who would sacrifice his health for work....

Darkness wants her father to look at her more!

After a hard-earned reunion, he should pay more attention to her....

This is my hope as a daughter.

Unfortunately, it is just a hope!

Celia, who has lived for countless years, shook her teacup and saw what Darkness was thinking.

She still said in a mocking tone:"If you hadn't killed the Demon King, your father would have gotten along well with you."

"Well, the problem is you, not Ignis."

This is the truth.

Everything that is busy in the Ruby City now is all due to the impact of the Demon King's death!

In order to deal with the future of the Ruby City!

Darkness clutched the quilt tightly, not knowing what emotion to express.

Destroy the Demon King.

Looking at history, even for gods, this is a must.

But after actually completing these things.

Everything is different from what I imagined!

Not only did he not receive praise from the world, but he became the one who deserved to die.

Celia saw that Darkness's mood was not right, and continued:"From your point of view, destroying the Demon King is the right thing to do."

"For most humans, you do the same"

"The hero destroys the devil. This is probably the fairy tale you have been listening to since childhood."

"But in the Ruby City, the devil in our eyes is not like that."

"He provided shelter to the residents of Ruby City, not only a beautiful living environment, but also excellent educational resources."

"They will not force us to pay taxes, and will even turn the uncontrollable monsters into a part of our harmonious coexistence."

"The legal system has also been improved. Although there may be some unfairness in some places, it has basically achieved no discrimination against the demons, elves, goblins and even humans living in the Ruby City."

"Even if this city is the devil's testing ground, so what?"

"The residents here are willing to be the devil's experimental subjects, and are willing to stand up and help the devil solve his problems when he is suffering."

"Not to mention me, how should others face you who killed the Demon King?"

"The Demon King is the savior of most people in the Ruby City. Just for this reason, you have no reason to refute if you are killed by them!"

Celiai said a lot of words in one breath. (To read the exciting novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

After all...

She was also very dissatisfied. Su Heng died in the hands of the hero.

Why?

Three words are enough to explain!

Darkness had nothing to say and did not continue to find any excuses to defend herself.

She couldn't find any!

Darkness asked a crucial question in her heart:"People in the Ruby City, do they live a real happy life?"

She wanted to know whether the people living in this city were living a happy life specially created by Su Heng.

If so.........

It’s better not to have such a city!

Celia looked out the window and said,"You’ve also lived in the Ruby City for a while. Do you think they are happy?"

"They are doing well......."

Darkness gave the answer.

Everyone had a happy look on their face. Even if you saw someone with a sad face on the street, they were much happier than the lower class people outside!

They were also very well-mannered!

This was something that could not be denied.

Celia continued,"This is indeed the Demon King's experimental site, but his experiments were about how to solve problems such as half-demonization and eliminating magic."

"

It is not a place to annihilate humanity.....

Remove magic....[]

The first one is understandable, but what about the second one?

Just when Darkness was about to ask , a beeping sound came from Celia's body. Celia frowned and took out a rectangular object from her pocket.

Darkness didn't know what it was.

It was not clear whether it was used for communication!

Celia took a quick look, the corners of her mouth suddenly rose, and she looked at Darkness:

"Hey, Darkness.

Darkness tilted her head:"What's up?"

Celia said:"I heard from Ignis that you don't really believe that the Demon King's Army cadres are very powerful, right?"

Darkness nodded weakly.

Because it was too outrageous, it was over level 500.

It was hard to imagine!

""What's wrong?"

Darkness asked Celia.

Darkness was confused by the sudden mention of this matter.

Celia smiled more and more:"Now it's time to prove that your father's words are all true and not lies."

"Prove that you killed Su Heng...No, the Demon King was killed by you, and the most wrong thing in the world has happened."

"Do you want to go?"

Darkness agreed without any hesitation:"I want to go!"

"If I'm proven wrong, I'll atone."

"If I'm right....."

Celia told her:"I will let you leave the Ruby City and compensate you."

"A piece of Ruby City wall."

Ruby City wall?

" Darkness was a little confused:"What use would I have for that thing?"

Celia turned and walked to the door, holding the doorknob with her free hand and said:"In order to suppress the half-demonized residents, Su Heng built a wall made entirely of forbidden magic stone."

"Yes, that small piece of forbidden magic stone can be used to make a holy weapon!"

Suddenly, Darkness' heart was in turmoil!

She recalled the reason why Fulilian lost consciousness.

It turned out that......

At that time, Fulilian was shocked by the walls of the Ruby City.......

"I hope your body hasn't rusted after two days of sleep."

Celia opened the door.

Darkness was stunned:"Two days? Did I sleep for two days?"

I thought I only slept for one day!

Celia ignored Darkness's surprise:"Those things are irrelevant. Get up and put on your equipment. Let's go to the gate of the North City."

"Cocytus of the Great Tomb of Nazarick has led a large army here and declared war on us."

The message Celie just received was the news that the city lord told her about Cocytus' invasion.

According to the current situation of the Ruby City

, even if Rimuru came to invade, nothing would happen.

But......

Celia wanted Darkness to personally experience the true combat power of the Demon King's army, so that she would believe how important Su Heng's existence was!

"I am a Crusader. How can I forget to fight during a two-day break?"

Darkness lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Although he staggered a few steps due to his weak body, his eyes were still firm:

"It's just Cocytus, my defeated opponent!"

Back then, Darkness and Cocytus had a head-on confrontation. Darkness won easily!

Darkness believed that if he fought him again, he would still win!

Celia raised her hand and cast a magic to restore energy on Darkness.

A green light emerged from the opponent's body.

Darkness's originally weak body was instantly full of strength!

The opponent was still wondering what was going on.

Celia told her the answer:"So that you don't lose the battle and use the excuse that you haven't recovered."

"Absolutely impossible!"

Darkness is very confident in herself!

Celia still had a sarcastic smile.

Because she knew very well that Cocytus's level was 400+.

Even if there was a holy relic that could specifically know undead creatures.

Darkness's chance of winning was still zero!

The level gap of more than 100 levels was a chasm that could never be crossed!

Celia asked someone to send Darkness's original equipment.

On this basis, she also cast several amplification magics.

After all, she is Ignis' daughter.

She can't really die!

Darkness, who put on the armor again, was full of energy and spirit, and even had the illusion of being a different person!

Darkness held the sword in her hand, and was already imagining the victory of the battle.

Celia stood at the door and urged:"Don't dawdle, let's go."

""Okay."

Darkness followed Celia's footsteps.

The two stood in the yard of Celia's house, and then Celia whistled.

An eagle's cry cut through the sky.

The sky was shrouded in black shadows, and soon a griffin appeared!

Celia stroked the griffin's fur and said,"This is my mount. It can get to the North City Gate as soon as possible."

Darkness opened his mouth wide.

Oh my god!......

Is the Ruby City so powerful?

The mount equipped is actually a cool griffin!

Darkness didn't say much nonsense and followed Celia on the griffin.

The griffin's flying speed is quite fast!

It didn't take long to arrive at the gate of the North City!

Many guards breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Celia.

Celia didn't say much nonsense.

Leading Darkness, with the help of her personal authority, she passed through the blockade of the city gate.

When Darkness came to the outer gate.

She saw the skeleton army like a tide!

The leader was her former defeated general, Cocytus!

Cocytus held a weapon in each of his four hands. He was as majestic as a god of war!
