Chapter 844: Chapter 769: Someone as Hardworking as Me…
Four demons chatted with each other in the clearing for a bit, and then they were joined by the person they were waiting for.
“Swish!”
In an instant, with a soft sound cutting through the air, Shane appeared in front of all the demons.
The demons immediately turned their eyes to Shane.
“You…”
Leading the group, Sera prepared to say something as an opening.
But before Sera could speak, Shane already dashed behind her.
“???”
Sera was taken aback.
“???”
Lide and Camina were equally stunned.
“Hide and seek~~~”
Only Milu, upon realizing what was happening, cheered loudly, imitating Shane by hiding behind Sera.
But by doing so, Shane was bumped out.
Seeing this, Shane’s survival instinct exploded, and he hurriedly hid behind again.
“Yaya!”
Milu stubbornly fought Shane for the spot behind Sera, seemingly thinking that Shane was playing with her.
This led to both of them either hiding their heads or their tails, causing a commotion behind Sera as they squabbled.
“Milu, move aside and give me space!”
“No way! I want to play too!”
“I’m not playing!”
“It’s a crisis, crisis!”
“I’m indeed in crisis if you don’t move!”
“Hehe! So fun!”
“…(灬°ω°灬) Face of despair.”
Their playful antics nearly pushed Sera, the Demon Clan Supreme, off her feet.
“What are you two doing?”
Sera couldn’t help but speak out.
Lide and Camina also exchanged bewildered glances.
However, at this moment, two figures flew forth in quick succession.
“Shane Beizitu!”
Chafne called out angrily.
“Damn you!”
Ai Yi’s dragon wings flapped furiously, also looking quite peeved.
As soon as the two appeared, before waiting for greetings from the others, they charged towards Shane.
However…
“Catch!”
Accompanied by this voice, a small figure was tossed over.
“Ah!”
Milu let out a surprised gasp.
Shane did not want to deal with Ai Yi and Chafne, so he tossed Milu towards them.
“Milu!?”
“Careful!”
Chafne and Ai Yi were forced to stop and quickly caught the airborne Milu.
Yet, this only made them even more incensed.
“You despicable Hero, how dare you throw my sister…!?”
Chafne was fuming.
“I’m definitely going to deal with you today!”
Ai Yi even tossed aside her pillow, her towering mountain peaks heaving with her agitated breaths.
But just as the two were about to continue charging at Shane, he spoke up.
“Now’s the time! Milu! Hold onto them!”
Hearing Shane’s call, Milu, caught by Chafne and Ai Yi, obediently complied, extending her little hands to grab onto both Chafne and Ai Yi.
“Milu…!?”
“You…!?”
Chafne and Ai Yi were both utterly astonished.
Meanwhile, Milu was all smiles.
“I want to play, I want to play!”
This child thought Shane, Chafne, and Ai Yi were all playing a game.
“Let me go, Milu!”
“I want to play!”
“Milu, if you don’t let go, I won’t be nice to you!”
“Want to play, want to play, must play!”
“You…”
“I…”
The three demons tangled into a mess, none able to free themselves from the others.
“This…”
Sera, Lide, and Camina were all dumbfounded.
“Wow, they really get along well.”
Shane, at some point, emerged from behind Sera, clapping his hands with a satisfied expression – as if he had accomplished a laborious task, looking rather pleased and gratified.
“…What are you guys doing?”
Sera was speechless. After a long pause, she asked Shane this question.
“Nothing, don’t worry about it.” Shane waved his hand, trying to bluff, while deliberately changing the subject, saying, “Are you waiting for me?”
“Yes…” Lide replied reflexively, “Today, our six sisters will accompany you there…”
Before she could finish the sentence, Shane interrupted.
“Then let’s set off, don’t delay any longer.”
Shane seemed impatient.
“Why such urgency?”
Camina started to feel suspicious.
But Shane said righteously.
“You were born as Demons, you won’t understand the feelings of someone who climbed step by step from Level 0 to this point,” Shane declared firmly, “As long as there’s a possibility for progress or to become stronger, people like me who strive will always be anxious.”
“Is that so?” Sera argued, “But from what I know, you reincarnated in this world only half a year ago, leveling up to this point without a single proper step-by-step upgrade, but instead leapt several levels, even dozens, reaching Legendary level with such an astounding growth rate, didn’t you?”
“Indeed.” Camina also caught on, stared at Shane intently, “Moreover, this world doesn’t have the concept of Level 0, the lowest is Level 1.”
The two Demons corrected Shane’s tear-inducing argument, almost cracking Shane’s firm expression.
Fortunately, Shane held on.
“Don’t mind the details,” Shane said, averting his gaze, “In any case, I’m in a hurry, and you must want to go home early, do your things, find your Mom, so let’s hurry and set off.”
Saying this, Shane didn’t want to listen to the Demons’ chatter, directly picked up Milu whom Lide had just wanted to play with.
“What are you doing?”
Lide protested.
“Let you lead the way,” Shane once again righteously said, “I don’t know the way.”
“I…” Lide wanted to say, everyone set off together… err, everyone will depart together.
Unfortunately, Shane didn’t want to talk to her. Although there was nothing left to throw, he directly reached out and blocked Lide’s mouth.
“Mmm mmm mmm!”
Lide struggled.
“What? You’re telling me to hurry? You’re in a rush?” Shane indicated he understood, “Got it! Then let’s set off!”
Once said, Shane holding (carrying) Lide, flew straight into the sky, heading to the distance.
“Wait!”
“Stop!”
Chafne and Ai Yi, witnessing this scene, hurriedly rushed after.
“Hee hee!”
Milu still clung to them, her little expression so joyful.
Everyone came to play with me! (/≧▽≦)/)
Thus, everyone vanished racing away.
Only Sera and Camina were left, staring blankly at everything.
“…What should we do now? Big sis?”
Camina pondered for a long time, finally uttering these words.
“What else can we do?” Sera replied irritably, “Follow them!”
Camina fell silent.
Although not really understanding this development, …as long as you all are happy. (｀・ω・´)
…
Eventually, Shane and the group of seven still set off smoothly together.
Shane’s speed was remarkable, coupled with the Instant Movement ability from Outer Destiny, he was not caught by Chafne and Ai Yi. Finally, when they were near the destination, the two could only shout at Shane, asking him to return, saying they wouldn’t hold it against him and had forgiven him.
Sadly, they didn’t know, Shane knew well the concept “women’s words are ghosts deceiving.” His childhood idol, his mom, taught him via television that the prettier a woman is, the more they can deceive.
And these two women chasing him were prettier one than the other, including the most beautiful woman in the world.
With this, it was impossible for these two women not to deceive him.
Thus, Shane resolutely refused, continuing to evade Chafne and Ai Yi, until they were left with no temper.
Of course, Sera and Camina, chasing Shane, Chafne, Ai Yi and others, were equally out of breath, almost losing their minds.
Originally, they planned to use the Crystal Pen for teleportation straight to the destination, but found themselves pulled into a long marathon.
Who to turn to for Reason?
Instead, Milu truly believed everyone was playing, her laughter never stopping from start to finish.
For her, today was probably the happiest day of her life?
Usually, either busy beyond measure or only stopped from playing by her sisters, today all her sisters collectively played hide and seek with her, still that word—joyful!ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
In this manner, the group chased, raced, teased, and fought, successfully reaching the destination.
It was a vast lake.
Moreover, not on the ground, but on a mountain.
“Is this…a volcano…?”
Shane held Lide, looking at the mountain below shaped like a volcano, then at the crater replaced by a massive lake, immediately feeling like seeing the Heavenly Mountain from the previous life.
The other Demons had already landed beside him, watching the lake, appearing as if they didn’t want to speak to him.
Except Milu.
“Get in! Get in!”
Milu jumped onto Shane’s back, seemingly enjoying herself, clinging to his back as she urged.
“Enter?” Shane pointed at the mountain lake, “You want me to enter that lake?”
The one answering was not Milu, but Lide held in Shane’s arms.
“Inside, our mother’s treasure is left behind,” Lide raised her eyes to Shane, “If the inner sanctum left by the Supreme God is the treasure of the Human Race, then the treasure left by our mother is the treasure of the Demon Clan, its value is no less than the Human Race’s inner sanctum.”
“I see.” Shane understood.
The Supreme God could leave the Human Race treasures to enhance power, to increase the party’s combat power and chance of victory. Then, in terms of power, the Demon King stronger than the Supreme God had no reason not to leave something.
Even if the Demon King was not as omnipotent as the Supreme God but had strength enough to solve many things.
And now, Shane was about to gain considerable benefits because of this.
