Chapter 67 - I Can Even Accompany You For Three Days Straight
Home?
Suo Fei frowned. How could that be possible?
Although Samael’s parents hadn’t been mentioned in the game, Samael still had some recollection of his childhood.
That world that was filled with endless darkness could only be the Demon Realm.
Samael was born in the Demon Realm but grew up in the territory of the Humans.
The territory of the Humans was an ordinary village that belonged to one of the three major cities, Carter City. It was an under-developed mountain village.
Suo Fei had seen that place. There was not any similarity between that place and this place in front of him. Moreover, Suo Fei didn’t feel that Samael would still regard that place as his home.
Suo Fei asked Samael, “Have you been here before?”
Samael replied, “No.”
Suo Fei was stunned. He clearly remembered that Samael told him that he had been here when they first entered the treasury.
He asked Samael about this. Samael frowned and asked, “Did I say that?”
The two were puzzled. They both knew that they wouldn’t lie to each other. However, Suo Fei truly heard it yet Samael didn’t have any impression of him saying it. What is going on?
Suo Fei couldn’t help but wonder if he had misheard it.
That could be possible… It had been a long time so there might be discrepancies in his memories. He might have heard it wrongly or remembered it wrongly.
However, Suo Fei always felt that there was something fishy. He thought and thought about it but was unable to figure it out. At that time, he had just entered the treasury and everything was chaotic. He remembered thinking that there seemed to be something wrong with Samael at that time but he was distracted by the ensuing attack of the ferocious beasts. After that, he paid little attention to it.
Thinking about it now, it was already hard to tell.
He thought about it for quite a while and came up with nothing so Suo Fei gave up and said, “I probably remembered it wrongly.”
Then he asked, “Where is this place?”
Seeing Suo Fei diverting the topic, Samael didn’t pursue the matter and replied, “Dragon Valley.”
Dragon Valley? Although he had not heard of it before, it was evident from the literal meaning of the name. It must be the Dragons’ territory.
Oh… Suo Fei recalled that in Yalance, although there were Dragons, apart from the red dragon, the only dragon that actually existed was Hull. So to say, the Dragons had almost been annihilated. As for the Dragons’ territory, Suo Fei completely had no idea.
Samael continued, “Nael doesn’t know much. He had been trapped inside Salvag’s Treasury ever since he was young. After his brother left, he waited inside the treasury until we found him.”
This meant that they wouldn’t be able to get any information from Nael about that place.
Looking at the red dragon’s behaviour, it did seem like he didn’t understand anything. But, why was he trapped inside the treasury? Moreover, what was the matter in the treasury all about?
This… is really a mess.
Suo Fei felt that his brain cells weren’t enough to comprehend the matter. In the end, he gave up thinking about it. He might as well save Hull first. What’s the use of thinking so much?
To save Hull, they must go to the Sea of Chaos and there was a safe route to do so. In the whole of Yalance, n.o.body else apart from Suo Fei knew of this route.
The location of this route’s entrance… was not the regular bad news.
It was in the Demon Realm, inside the Demon Palace, directly beneath the Demon King’s throne!
This was why Samael only entered the Sea of Chaos to save Hull after conquering the Demon Realm.
Suo Fei unblinkingly stared at Samael after telling him about this requirement.
His cautiousness was too obvious so Samael asked him, “You don’t want me to sit on that position?”
Suo Fei nodded without hesitation.
Samael smilingly said, “I’m not interested.”
Suo Fei heaved a sigh of relief and quickly explained for himself, “I’m afraid that it’ll be troublesome for you. If you sit on the throne, you will be trapped in the Demon Realm all the time and you can’t go anywhere. It’d be too boring. Moreover, the Demons are not easy to manage. Everything is a chaotic mess. People would be challenging you all day. It’s too troublesome.”
Samael was still smiling.
Suo Fei was a little uncomfortable.
“I believe you. It’s definitely not because of the legendary Demon Palace.”
The laughter in Samael’s eyes became brighter.
Suo Fei was embarra.s.sed. Samael was a Demon. Although he didn’t grow up in the Demon Realm, the social customs and living habits of the Demons were still well-known throughout Yalance. It was impossible for Samael not to know. Thus, Suo Fei’s small discretion couldn’t be concealed from Samael.
Since he couldn’t hide it, Suo Fei flew into a range out of humiliation. He went closer and spoke with a fierce expression, “What?! Samael, do you really want to experience that so-called banquet? I heard that all the former Demon Kings would be dragged into a night of revelry…”
Samael smiled faintly and pulled him into his arms. He leaned in close to his ears and whispered.
Suo Fei’s face flushed red.
S-Samael had been led astray!
H-he can’t take this lying down! Thus, Suo Fei braced himself and said, “Accompanying you for a night of revelry is nothing. I can even accompany you for three days and three nights straight!”
Samael kissed him and said, “Good, I’ll bear it in mind.”
Wait… Bear what in mind?!
He was just about to retort when he heard a knock on the door.
Samael went to open a door and Suo Fei followed him. When the door was opened, Suo Fei was stunned.
The red dragon had huge luggage on his head. He flashed his enormous wings and said, “I’ve already packed up my luggage. Let’s go and find Hull!”
Suo Fei’s gaze landed on the huge, pink and flowery luggage on top of its head and wanted to cover his eyes. Idiot, can you not be so foolish?
Samael was in a good mood so it patted the foolish dragon’s head and the foolish dragon became even prouder of himself.
Suo Fei had no choice but to explain to him, “Nael, you’d have to become smaller in this trip. We have to be inconspicuous.”
The red dragon was puzzled, “Become smaller? How can I become smaller?”
Suo Fei coughed and spoke to Samael, “We need to use the Transmogrifier.”
Samael handed it to him. Suo Fei studied it for quite a while and handed it back to Samael in the end, “This… It seems like I can’t use it.”
Samael took it and demonstrated how to use it. Suo Fei learned it quickly.
He said to the red dragon, “Don’t move. It’ll only take a short while.”
The red dragon’s interest had been piqued so it nodded earnestly.
Suo Fei held the Transmogrifier, pointed it towards the red dragon and activated it. As the red dragon was enormous, the activation time wasn’t brief. Fortunately, the red dragon didn’t move so it was easy for Suo Fei to point at him. Suo Fei only had to keep still in order to successfully activate it.
After half an hour, a ray of light shot out and enveloped the red dragon.
Then, he began shrinking from his enormous size. It seemed that it had been successfully activated.
Then, a high-pitched scream sounded.
Suo Fei watched wide-eyed in shock.
Oh my… I forgot to ask the red dragon to put down his huge, pink flowery luggage. The red dragon had become small so he couldn’t bear the heavy load. He was instantly pushed down by his huge luggage.
Suo Fei was mortified. What should we do if he becomes crushed to death?!
He hurriedly rushed forward to examine his situation. Under the huge luggage, he saw a tiny dragon cub that was dazedly spitting out flames.
So… so cute!
Suo Fei quickly moved the luggage aside and placed the red dragon cub on his hand. His wings were shaking. His eyes were swirly, like mosquito coils, due to being pressed down. His mouth was wide open, spitting out flames as he coughed out.
The dragon cub was only the size of a palm. He lied on Suo Fei’s hands spread-eagled.
Samael also came over. He expressionlessly poked the red dragon with his hand and the dragon cub turned over, revealing his soft belly. Suo Fei thought of the tough and large red dragon from before and then looked at the little cub in front of him now. The stark contrast made him smile so broadly that his eyes narrowed into a line.
Looking at the dragon cub, Suo Fei suddenly felt that the Transmogrifier was truly a good thing.
His brain, which was more active than ordinary people, instantly began fantasizing.
If… If I secretly used the Transmogrifier on Samael… When he imagined the cute and tiny black-haired demon, Suo Fei’s heart immediately sped up.
He stared at Samael overtly while he was immersed in his imagination. Samael, who was being intently stared at, raised his eyebrows and seized the Transmogrifier, “I’ll keep this.”
“Ah, hey…” Suo Fei, who was imagining the lil’ black-haired demon in his mind instinctively reached out for the Transmogrifier like Erkang. My lil’ Samael… Transmogrifier…
Samael looked at Suo Fei and his eyes narrowed as he smilingly asked, “Want to try it?”
Suo Fei was familiar with all of Samael’s expressions. At this moment, his smile was definitely harbouring malicious intentions. Suo Fei hurriedly waved his hand in denial, “No… No need.”
He wanted to tease the lil’ Samael but he didn’t want himself to become small and be teased.
The lil’ dragon cub recovered his senses and loudly cried out. His voice was clear and sharp, without any trace of the red dragon’s deep and resounding ba.s.s, “You guys! You’re all so big!”
Suo Fei was appalled. He flicked the dragon’s small head and explained, “You’ve become smaller.”
The lil’ Nael was bewildered. After processing the information for a while, he animatedly flapped his wings and started flying around like a fly, extremely curious.
At this time, the little cub and the fireball fatty also arrived. When the two saw the lil’ dragon cub, they were first stunned. Then, they laughingly rushed over and blissfully played together with him. It seemed that they were very pleased with Nael’s new physique.
Since Samael could also fly now, the little cub had also been reduced in size. The fireball fatty insisted that he could shrink by himself.
Suo Fei contemplated for a while before finally disagreeing. The fireball fatty’s “shrinking” was only dividing himself into a large group of lil’ fireball fatties, which would be awfully conspicuous. Thus, he used the Transmogrifier to change the group of lil’ fireball fatties into one lil’ fireball fatty.
At last, on Suo Fei’s left shoulder was the lil’ dragon cub, on his right shoulder was the little cub, and on his palm was the fireball fatty who was sulkily drawing circles. Finally done, but unfortunately… Suo Fei grudgingly looked at the Transmogrifier in Samael’s hands. He badly wanted to see the lil’ Samael!
Fine, I mustn’t be anxious. There’d always be an opportunity.
Once they were fully prepared, Samael embraced Suo Fei, unfolded his bone wings and flew to the sky.
Suo Fei’s plan was extremely simple. In the game, Samael directly killed Linde and seized the Demon King’s throne. After that, he openly entered the Sea of Chaos and saved Hull.
However, they didn’t have to go through so much trouble. It wouldn’t be easy to kill Linde. At that time, the game had directed him to conquer Abel. This time, they didn’t have such worries and they didn’t need to waste this effort.
The entrance to the Sea of Chaos was under the Demon King’s throne. They only had to furtively sneak into the Demon Palace and sneakily go under the King’s throne. At that time, they would be able to smoothly enter the Sea of Chaos.
Of course, this was a simple thing to say, but a complicated thing to implement. Firstly, Suo Fei had to have the ability to sneak into the Demon Palace without being noticed. Secondly, although the Sea of Chaos’ entrance was truly below the throne, one needed a trigger to open it. At present, only Suo Fei knew the trigger was.
Therefore, in the entire Yalance, the only people who could enter the bottom of the Sea of Chaos were only Samael and Suo Fei.
When they arrived at the Demon Realm, Suo Fei also heard great news.
Linde was not in the Demon Realm. He went to the Beastkins’ territory. This was simply a heaven-sent opportunity.
They effortlessly sneaked into the Demon Palace. The Demon King’s throne was also known as the Throne of Blood, meaning that a great deal of blood had been spilled on the king’s throne. This was sufficient to see the price that one had to pay to ascend to this position.
Even Suo Fei could easily hide from the guards outside the palace, let alone Samael.
In fact, there was not much defense in the Demon Palace since the fighting strength of each of the Demons was already super strong. Linde was the most important person in the Demon Realm so his imperial guards were the elite of the elites. There was simply no one who would dare to sneak in. Moreover, there wasn’t any treasure in the Demon Palace. The Throne of Blood was a symbol of one’s strength, but it wasn’t a treasure. Thus, it was not necessary to employ some expensive defense mechanism.
Suo Fei used to be a Demon King (using the ultimate gong’s body). Hence, he knew the Demon Palace’s plan view like the palm of his hand. This helped them greatly.
As they were gradually approaching the Demon King’s great hall, Suo Fei keenly discovered that someone was also sneaking into the place.
He took a close look and discovered that… It was actually Abel.
