Restarting Life After Forcibly Marrying the Demon King

After all, all human magicians are vulnerable in Luo Ning's eyes.

Let's just... trust Maria first?

Luo Ning looked at the old king's old face and asked him.

"When you send out the carrier pigeon, how long will it take to get a reply from Maria?"

"If they don't travel far, they can get a reply in about three to five hours."

"Then you put a pigeon out now, and when you get a reply, contact me as soon as possible."

Luo Ning paused, and then said, "If there is no reply, please let me know as soon as possible."

"I understand."

The old king nodded solemnly.

For some reason, when he saw Luo Ning's anxious reaction, he also became uneasy.

When Maria set off, she was full of confidence, but the old king knew Luo Ning's level. Since even Luo Ning was worried, their plan this time was indeed a little too much.

The old king quickly prepared the letter paper, took out a quill pen from his pocket, and wrote on the letter paper.

At the same time, a gray carrier pigeon flew in from the window sill.

There is a jewel hanging on the body of the seemingly ordinary pigeon, which seems to be some kind of magic tool for defense or hiding the body.

"Cuckoo..."

After the old king released the pigeons, Luo Ning remembered the business of coming here this time.

However, he felt that other things could be put aside for the time being. The news of Maria leaving the city always made him a little uneasy.

Come to think of it... the old lady and kitten girl Nicole who live on the hillside south of Elan King City are all right.

Luo Ning never thought of sending any bodyguards there.

That place is a certain distance from Elan King City, and I don't know if the imperial army has searched there.

Captives, the old and the young, are of no benefit to the imperial army. As captives, they must be given food, and they must be escorted to distant imperial territories.

If the captives did not pose a threat to Elan King City, the empire would also consider converting the captives into labor, and the old and the young were obviously not good targets.

"Is anyone in the empire arrested?"

Luo Ning thought about it seriously, then raised his eyes and asked the old king.

The old king couldn't make a decision.

"The news is all learned from the mouths of merchants in other countries, and those merchants are also hearsay... It is not easy to judge the empire's actions for a while."

"They don't have compassion for the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, but they are all self-interested. Considering the difficulty of transporting captives, they should attack the strong men more."

At this time, the old king had already lost his appetite, and just silently stared at the food in front of him in a daze.

"That's why we sent Maria out to investigate..."

"Although the Elan King's City was calm during this period, I was always in a state of anxiety... It's hard to know what they will do if I spend this time with the Empire. The ultimate goal of the Empire is the entire demon clan, and the Elan King's City as the empire The halfway point with the demons is also something the empire is determined to achieve."

The expression on the old king's face became more and more dull, but when he looked up at Luo Ning, his deep eyes brightened again.

"We have been waiting for Master Luo Ning to come back here, and now you are back..."

The old king looked at Luo Ning meaningfully.

He seemed to see hope in his eyes.

Of course Luo Ning understood what the old king meant, and he would not pretend to be confused at this time.

"Since I have taken care of the affairs of Elan King City, I will definitely not stop easily."

Luo Ning glanced at the old king's face and looked at the window on the other side.

The sun has completely set, and darkness is covering the earth.

The wooden house behind the hillside in the distance does not know whether the people inside are still there.

Luo Ning really hoped that Nicole and the old lady had already changed places to live, preferably far away from Elan King City.

But in any case, they will be affected by this matter.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter."

Luo Ning rarely said such promises, but if he did, then he would definitely not break his promise.

Originally, I came here to ask the old king if he had any way to store magic essence, and then to inquire about puppet magic information.By the way, I would like to ask how the residences they were asked to divide and build last time, after all, they will send the demons over according to Lilulu's wishes.

As a result, none of these three important questions were asked, and the time was wasted instead.

But Luo Ning is not in a hurry, those things can be resolved slowly.

It was getting late, and Luo Ning promised Wendy to go back for dinner.

He didn't stay any longer, and stood up with his hands on the table.

"That's it for now. If the carrier pigeon responds, send someone to tell me. I'm in the cafe opened by Milia."

"I understand."

The old king quickly stood up and wanted to send Luo Ning off in person.

Luo Ning pushed back his old body that was about to fall apart with one hand.

"Don't move around, old man, see you later."

After finishing speaking, Luo Ning walked another bunch of grapes on the table, held them in his hands and returned the same way.

447 Die Together

"Jingle--"

Luo Ning pushed open the wooden door of the cafe.

The girls inside the door were in full swing and making a fuss.

"Let go of me, let me go, I'm going to eat all the food that dishonest man ordered!! Tell him to come home so late, starve him to death!!"

Milia flung her arms and legs towards the table, but was stopped by Wendy.

"Don't come back so late, how upright is the girl next to King Elan!!!"

Because Milia was too noisy, the whole space was filled with her thin girlish voice, so that she didn't even know that Luo Ning opened the door and walked in.

"Sir God."

Ruta sat quietly at the side, sipping the creme brulee in her own bowl, and seemed to be used to Milia's noise.

After greeting Luo Ning, Luta focused on her food and went.

"Ah, let me go!!"

Milia crossed her arms, and she was about to grab Luo Ning's steak and mashed potatoes.

Luo Ning reached out and pinched her delicate wrist.

"I only went out for two hours, how could I become a heartless person?"

"Two hours!"

Milia turned her head sharply, pointing her finger at the clock on the wall.

"Your master, I have been waiting here for three and a half hours!!"

Luo Ning raised his eyes and glanced at the wall clock on the wall.

There are no such mechanized things in this world. The wall clock is just a decoration made by Milia based on the memory she learned from Luo Ning.

It is impossible for decorations to keep track of time, so Miria is talking nonsense.

"I promised to come back for dinner, but it was late at night before I slipped back!! It's dark to play!!"

Milia yelled at this disobedient little apprentice.

"Everyone is waiting for you hungry!!"

Milia was furious, and Luo Ning reached out and pinched her face.

"Okay, okay, I will come back early next time."

Luo Ning responded helplessly, while pulling out a chair and sitting at the dining table.

"Hmph! There's still a next time, there's a next time, right!!"

Unconvinced at all, Miria put her hands on Luo Ning's cheeks and pinched his face with more force, crushing his face into a big cake.

In the hands of this troubled girl, Luo Ning has nothing to do with her.

When Milia finished venting her anger, she would let Luo Ning go.

She didn't give up until Luo Ning's face turned red.

Milia angrily brought over the dinner plate, placed it in front of Luo Ning, and said the most gentle words in the most ruthless tone.

"Eat quickly! Otherwise, it will be cold again in a while!!"

"……Oh."

Looking at the carefully prepared food in front of him, Luo Ning hesitated.

It wasn't that he was worrying too much, it was that the problematic girl was right in front of him, it was hard for Luo Ning to let go of his worries.

Poison... definitely doesn't exist, but medicine doesn't necessarily exist.

"What's the matter, doesn't satisfy your appetite?"

Milia sat beside Luo Ning.

She rested her chin on her hands on the table.

Obviously she was still aggrieved just now, but now, her light red eyes are filled with tenderness and a smile, and even her tone of voice is forced to be gentle.

Luo Ning's intuition told him that there was something wrong with this food!

He looked away and looked at Wendy who was diagonally opposite.

Wendy took a sip of the food, as if she had sensed Luo Ning's gaze, and the wooden spoon in her hand couldn't help but eat.

Wendy was like a frightened little rabbit, after taking a quick look at Luo Ning, she looked away guiltily.

Luo Ning knew Wendy's character, she was too gentle to deceive anyone.

On the contrary, Milia lied to people without pause.

"what's wrong?"

Milia looked at Luo Ning expectantly, but Luo Ning didn't even have the desire to move the spoon and fork.

"Why don't you drink some water first? This time it's not some sweet and sour soup, but ordinary apple juice~"

Miria pushed another glass of water.

A layer of mist hangs on the glass, and the translucent liquid inside is pale yellow.

It is indeed the color of apple juice. Judging from the color, it should be freshly squeezed, and there are no unknown floating objects on the surface.

Luo Ning looked at the food very vigilantly.

He still has to wait for news from the old king tonight, so he can't just follow Milia's advice.

"you eat first."

With an idea, Luo Ning pushed all the food on hand to Milia.

He put the dinner plate full of vegetables and fresh meat in front of Milia together with the most suspected fruit juice, and urged her.

"Try it first."

"Hey, your master, I must have tasted it. After all, this is a happy dinner made by the master himself~ In order to bring a comfortable experience to the little apprentice, of course I tasted it first~"

Milia's tone was surprisingly gentle.

The gentle breath blows softly on Luo Ning's face.

It's like coaxing an ignorant teenager into eating the forbidden fruit.

Luo Ning definitely won't be able to hit the trick.
