Chapter 394 Conspiracy

While Viola was meeting the intelligence dealer, a conspiracy was also being plotted far to the northwest of Kaimen City.

The Demon Kingdom of Laxuriya is located in the mountains just north of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus. It has abundant rain and a humid environment, but the terrain is too complicated.

It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is also very difficult to develop. It is called the Demon Kingdom on the hillside.

In the Palace of Laxuriya, the young Prime Minister Evender, who is less than 30 years old this year, hurried through the corridor. The maids passing by are no longer surprised.

Whenever the Prime Minister is seen in a hurry in the palace, it means that His Majesty the Demon King is not handling government affairs again.

This is indeed the case. His Majesty the Demon King did not show up in the morning when he should have summoned all the ministers to discuss policies, so the Prime Minister had to rush in to find someone.

This operation has been repeated many times, and Evender also knows where to look, and everyone follows the process.

So he went straight to the bedroom of His Majesty the Demon King in the palace without hesitation.

"Get lost!"

As soon as I reached the door, I heard a loud shout, but this was not said to Evander, but to a young woman who almost crawled out of the room with her hands and feet.

This person was disheveled, as if she had a fierce exchange with the Demon King last night. When she came out, she was holding a shoe in her hand, wrapped in a sheet casually, and looked very embarrassed with her hair disheveled.

Don't get me wrong, this is not the queen of the Laxuriya Demon Kingdom, not even a princess or an underground lover.

The current Laxuriya Demon King has a quirk. He does not appoint a queen or a princess, which seems to be not close to women, but he invites the ladies from the city clubs to the palace every day, more punctual than punching in for work, and never misses a day.

Moreover, this demon king is moody. He smiled at you in the previous second, and asked you to get out in the next second. It is not good if you don't get out smoothly.

However, the ladies in the club will get generous rewards every time they come, as long as they don't care how they go back. So you will see that the woman who ran out of the room is embarrassed, but she seems to be smiling, which means she has made a lot of money.

This scene is also not surprising. Evander tidied his clothes and knocked on the door:

"Your Majesty, it's me, Evander."

There was a furious sound of smashing things in the room a second ago, but when Evander spoke, the sound stopped immediately.

"Oh, come in. I just got up."

Just listening to the sound, it is impossible to tell that someone was angry inside just now. It was lazy as if he had just got up.

Evander pushed the door open, and the cold wind passed through the window of the dormitory. Under the effect of magic, it turned into a gentle breeze, rolling up the curtains on the luxurious bed. A young blond man who looked only in his early twenties sat naked on the bed and rubbed his eyes with his hands.

"I got up late today."

"Yes, yes, you always say you got up late."

The Demon King explained symbolically, and the Prime Minister also believed symbolically. This is the process.

Laurent Laxurria, the current Demon King of Laxurria, but he has only succeeded to the throne for less than two years and is a very young Demon King.

"So, what is the agenda this morning?"

Laurent asked casually, and stood up and walked to the warm water pool embedded in the ground on the other side of the room.

"Your Majesty, the Oswaya Demon Kingdom has begun to act."

"That female fox will definitely not miss this opportunity to take back the fortress."

"Aren't you going to act?"

"I work very hard every day and don't want to find things to do for myself."

That is really hard work in the literal sense.

Although this Demon King behaves very much in line with the characteristics of a tyrant, Prime Minister Evander knows very well that Laurent is a very rare wise monarch in the history of Laxurria.

Less than two years after he took office, he made drastic reforms and reversed the situation of domestic corruption.

Please note that this is not a metaphor, but a drastic change in the literal sense.

The reason why Evander could become prime minister at the age of less than 30 was not only because he was capable enough to do the job, but also because almost all the old nobles were killed by the seemingly lazy Demon King.

The Demon Kingdom of Laxuriya is a centralized system, while most other Demon Kingdoms are feudal systems, which actually makes the nobles in the country very dissatisfied.

Human beings are almost the same no matter where they are. When they have power, they want more power. Their dissatisfaction is understandable.

The Demon Kings of all generations have not had the courage to completely solve this problem, which has led to the nobles gradually forming a power group that is against the royal family.

After Laurent succeeded to the throne, he easily eradicated the problems that have plagued the Demon Kingdom of Laxuriya for hundreds of years through strategies such as luring and dividing, and reorganized the forces.

It is easy to kill people, but the most difficult thing is how to survive this period of political chaos.

The most amazing thing about Laurent's administration is that there was no chaos during this process. The common people only saw the noble lord who was originally showing off his power being dragged to the Louis XVI Happy Platform, and there was no other ripples.

The ability to control the situation is the biggest advantage of this demon king.

Of course, it would be better if he could be more self-disciplined.

Evander knew that he couldn't persuade him, but the job of prime minister was actually similar to that of a secretary. He could only shake his head and continue to report:

"The Tandron Demon Kingdom sent a message asking us to increase the number of troops in the Avarus Demon Kingdom and prepare to join the offensive to encircle Princess Viola."

Speaking of the Tandron Demon Kingdom, Laurent's brows jumped, and his good mood just now disappeared instantly.

The Demon Kingdom of Lakshurya and the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon are feuding. About ten years ago, a war broke out between the two sides on the border.

But speaking of it, that war was initiated by Laurent's father, the former Demon King, in order to divert domestic conflicts, which was equivalent to deliberately seeking trouble.

The war went smoothly at first. After all, the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon was caught off guard. Laurent's father, Long Yan, was so happy that he had to go to the front line to boost the morale of the soldiers.

Then nothing unexpected happened.

The king of a country was besieged on the front line, and was captured a week later. He was also taken to the capital of the Tandron Demon Kingdom. It was a great shame and humiliation.

At that time, the aristocratic group that did not have a good deal with the royal family seized the opportunity and prepared to cause trouble. Many people in the royal family also tried to take the opportunity to replace them.

During the most precarious period, the Demon Kingdom of Avarus and the Demon Kingdom of Subia came forward to mediate, and then the Demon Kingdom of Tandron made a request.

The Demon King can be put back to you, but the first prince Laurent must be sent as a hostage.

Laurent, who was less than ten years old at the time, became a hostage and suffered humiliation in the Tandelon Demon Kingdom. He was not released until his father died two years ago.

With this kind of experience, it goes without saying whether he will have a favorable impression of the Tandelon Demon Kingdom.

However, there is a saying that the Tandelon Demon Kingdom has sent a notice, and Lakshurya really has to take it seriously.

"Agree to their request and continue recruiting troops in the country."

Evander knew that Laurent was not someone who gave in so easily, and was shocked when he heard this:

"Your Majesty, are you..."

"Evandel."

Laurent lay in the pool, letting the buoyancy lift him up:

"Did you know? Stories from the Age of Mythology. Legend has it that it was the period when the Demon King and God ruled. We, the high-ranking demons, helped the Demon King and God manage the entire plane. There were almost no wars at that time. The Demon King and God's will was the final decision. It could not and was not allowed. Objection."

"I've heard of it."

"No, you just heard the story itself, but you didn't think about what it meant."

Laurent raised his head and glanced at Evander, who seemed to be stung by that gaze.

"A tyrant who does not allow any voice of resistance has returned. All we can do is surrender or perish. If you can't even see this clearly, you would be too stupid."

Evander understood his master's meaning in an instant, and cold sweat broke out on his palms...
