Restarting Life After Forcibly Marrying the Demon King

The mermaid kneeling in the center of the temple and the demon standing there at a loss turned their heads in surprise at the same time.

All eyes fell on Luo Ning.

404 The Price of Betrayal

"If you kneel like this, I will become a sinner instead."

Li Lulu smiled coldly.

She held Levatin in her hand, her sullen eyes were very cold, but there was a complicated light flashing in her eyes.

Li Lulu looked down at the mermaid kneeling in front of her.

The mermaid has no knees, all she can do is bend the soft fish tail and fold it at a certain angle, which looks no different from human kneeling.

Mina propped one hand on the side of her body, and put the other hand in front of her chest.

She exhaled several times and shook her head frequently.

"Li Lulu..."

"There's no need to do this to me. Also, your kneeling is worthless in my eyes, and I won't be shaken by it."

Li Lulu's eyes were complicated, hiding a deep bewilderment.

The hand she was holding Levatin had already clenched into a fist, and her pale hands were trembling due to emotional fluctuations.

Although she said 'will not waver', Li Lulu's performance at this moment was indeed wavering.

Li Lulu's gaze remained on Mina's hand.

Mina's hands were almost invisible, and Lilulu could only tell from the direction of her shoulders that she was pressing one hand on her chest.

And, if you observe carefully, you will see that the degree of transparency of her body is increasing, and she is slowly following her arms, with the tendency to engulf her entire body.

"Li Lulu..."

"It's useless, Mina. You betrayed the entire demon clan. I have no reason to help you."

"But, the blue mermaid... the last of my people..."

Mina bit her lip.

Her pale red lips were about to bleed, and her blue eyes looking at Li Lulu were full of pleading.

"I ask you to protect my race. They are demons. The angels in heaven will not accept them, and humans will not accept them. They will have no shelter..."

"It's my act to betray the demons, it has nothing to do with my race, they don't even know about it..."

Mina pleaded word for word.

Li Lulu moved her eyes away, she seemed unable to meet those eyes.

Her former companion was even regarded by her as a "knowledgeable big sister who can solve any problem", Lilulu said she has no affection for Mina, that would be a lie.

With Mina around, she can always help Lilulu solve most of the demons' problems.

Although not strong, Mina is smart and good at collecting information. She is undoubtedly one of the backbones of Demon King City.

Seeing her looking at her urgently and beggingly, Li Lulu was a little speechless.

"...Besides you, there are six other demon kings in the demon clan. Since I have distributed the power of the demon king to all the seven-pillar demon kings, then I will not act arbitrarily."

"Your matter, when I return to the Demon King City, I will let the other six-pillar demon kings decide together."

Li Lulu had a serious expression on her cold face.

But her gaze was already a little shaken, and she couldn't help turning it sideways instead of looking at Mina.

Like Luo Ning, she said the same thing to Mina.

None of them gave the answer directly in front of Mina, but indirectly, pushing the conclusion to the demon kings in the Demon King City.

In fact, whether it is Lilulu, the number one demon king who represents the entire demon clan, or Luo Ning, who killed the God of Light, each of them has the right to give Mina a result.

But none of them did.

It's not because I have to worry about the feelings of other demon kings, it's just that I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet.

Whether it is really killing, or giving Mina and Mina's race a chance, Lilulu can't make a choice.

"But……"

Mina bit her bright red lip, her body trembling.

"I don't have much time, Lilulu..."

"You, or the entire demon race hate me. I have no complaints. I have suffered on my own. But...my race, the only blue mermaids in this world, I don't want to see them go extinct."

"At least, please let me go with peace of mind... Please, please promise me."

Facing Lilulu's indifference, Mina could no longer suppress the heavy feelings in her chest.

She knew that she was not qualified to cry in front of Lilulu, but the air in her lung cavity was being deprived by emotions little by little, and her breathing became difficult, as if even the last bit of oxygen in her chest was about to be exhausted.

Mina gasped for breath, trying to adjust her breathing so as not to lose her composure.

In the end, I could only use a trembling voice, repeating and emphasizing:

"Please, Lilulu..."

Mina bowed her body, her forehead was almost touching the ground, her long water-blue curly hair hung down among the cotton clouds, and landed on the gravel and dusty ground.

Her humble approach made Li Lulu at a loss.

"Squeak-"

At the same time, the door at the end of the temple was slowly pushed open.

Li Lulu first grabbed Lewatin vigilantly, but when she saw the figure at the door, she immediately put down her guard.

The tense nerves instantly relaxed, and Li Lulu's clenched fists softened, and she looked at Luo Ning as if asking for help.

At the same moment, Mina also turned her head to look at the door, her eyes were also full of pleading.

As soon as Luo Ning closed the door, when he raised his eyes, he met the two women.

Both of them looked at him for help.

One is at a loss, the other is an urgent pleading.

Luo Ning was stunned.

There was even a thought of slipping through the door.

"……What's wrong?"

Seeing Mina who was kneeling on the ground and Lilulu who was standing there hugging Levatin at a loss, Luo Ning was a little puzzled.

This is... a quarrel?

His first reaction was to wonder if the two women had had a quarrel.

After all, Li Lulu's temperament is extreme, and she is also a tsundere, so it is understandable to lose her temper in front of Mina.

But when Luo Ning saw Li Lulu's puckered lips and her aggrieved eyes, Luo Ning seemed to understand that things were not that simple.

"Lonin!"

"Lord Luo Ning..."

"You persuade her..."

"Tell me about her!!"

The two spoke to Luo Ning in different tones, one fierce and the other gentle.

It seems to want Luo Ning to control the decision.

Luo Ning walked to their side.

Levatin in Lilulu's hand sensed his presence, opened his big watery eyes, and blinked at Luo Ning.

Luo Ning ignored the cute artifact and turned his attention to Mina.

"You get up first."

Luo Ning's tone was tepid, rather than speaking to Quan Mina, he was ordering her.

"Lord Luo Ning..."

"I don't want to bow my head and talk to you, get up."

"..."

Mina hesitated, but she nodded gently.

"it is good……"

The mermaid got up slowly, and the fish tail was not easy to use.

It took a lot of effort for the soft tail fin to stand up, and it was quickly submerged in shallow water, and every shake would push the water away.

Luo Ning saw her arm that had disappeared, and... the tail of the fish that was gradually fading.

At the very tip hidden in the water, the thin wings of the caudal fin have disappeared.

Luo Jing quietly looked at this woman who was about the same height as him.

But Mina didn't seem to be able to keep looking at Luo Ning for a long time. She bit her lip and looked away after only three seconds.

"I'm sorry, Lord Luo Ning... I may not be able to redeem myself..."

"It is the greatest relief to me that you haven't taken my life yet...I'm still too selfish. If I always put my people first, I won't be able to care about your feelings."

"I am willing to be punished by all of you, and I will not say another word."

Even though she talked about life and death, Mina's tone was still so gentle.

Mina lowered her head, her upright chest was covered with scales, and was drooping heavily as she bowed her body.

She is a sinner now, unable to lift her head up.

Luo Ning looked sideways at Li Lulu's expression again, and it happened that Li Lulu was peeking at him.

Luo Ning heard Li Lulu's small hum, and then she turned her head away.

It seemed that he didn't intend to take care of this matter, and just left the mess to Luo Ning.

In fact, Li Lulu is not the violent and ruthless demon king that people say, she is just a little arrogant.

On this point, Luo Ning still has a certain right to speak.

Luo Ning was a little helpless, he didn't have the same indifferent posture in front of the God of Light now, so he sighed and asked Mina.

"How long?"

"...Lord Luo Ning refers to?"

Mina raised her head in doubt, she still didn't dare to look directly at Luo Ning, but cleverly turned her gaze sideways.

"How long are you going to disappear?"

Luo Ning went straight to the road.

He was not stupid, and he had also heard what the God of Light said in front of Luo Ning himself.

Mina's body was not cursed by the divine artifact, but because she violated her promise to the God of Light.

When she betrayed the Demon Race, she also betrayed the God of Light.Her body has already begun to become transparent.

Now that the God of Light is dead, Mina is cursed faster.

Luo Ning thinks that Mina should know how much time she has left.

Mina thought for a while, but didn't speak for a long time.

"I want you to tell the truth." Luo Ning snapped.

Mina's lips moved, and the red lips bitten by her slowly opened.

"Nowadays……"

"When the sun has fully set."

"……what?!"
