Chapter 529: Treason?

The Mamen Demons around the table were all taken by surprise. Both demons on the side of the Box Family and the Saber Family were a little anxious. Despite fighting against the Zence Empire, the Mamen Demons had to endure pressure from the Lucifer Demons.

All the Demon Kings in the history wanted to deduct the land of the other clans and all the clans throughout history wanted to increase the size of their land. Between the Royal Demons and other Demon Species, it was common to see the continuous deduction and granting of land.

The current Demon King wasn’t just the most powerful demon warrior, he had a huge vision and a top-tier strategy. He had been controlling the distances between the Demon Clan. All the clans had lost some lands in the last while and rarely would Demon Clans be rewarded with tangible benefits.

Since the possibility of losing land was brought up, all the elders’ expression turned gloomy.

“Is my son going to die for nothing?” Saber Philip said unwillingly. “If my son died in the hands of the royal demon, I could still let it go. But he died to that mixed-blood!”

After he said that, even the Mamen Demons from the Box Family looked pissed. A great Mamen was killed by a mixed-blood! That would harm the reputation of Mamen Demons if that news got out.

Box Hort sipped some tea. It was a member of Saber Family who died, and it was a good news for him. However, he had to deal with that mixed-blood as well. Otherwise, other demons would think that Mamen Demons were easier to kill.

“He must die, but we need more. We need to ask Lucifer Lucy for compensation.” Box Hort said with a smile on his face. He put down the teacup and said, “From the information Box Taylor gave us, this mixed-blood is so arrogant that he doesn’t even respect the Tenth Princess.”

Saber Philip agreed with Box Taylor for the first time, but he had to complain, “Damn Lucifer bloodline. Which one of them isn’t arrogant?”

“That is right. Typically, one arrogant demon doesn’t like other arrogant demons.” Box Hort adjusted his sitting position and smiled. “Looks like Lucifer Lucy only got this retinue not too long ago. Judging from what happened, the Tenth Princess also doesn’t like him. If we provide her with some benefits and get this mixed-blood…”

“So we are still paying out? What compensation is there?” Saber Philip sneered, “Where is the compensation?”

“Do we really need compensation?” Box Hort laughed. “As long we establish an agreement with Lucifer Lucy and give her some benefits, she would act and pretend to give us a lot of compensation. If other demon species know about this, how would they look at us? Isn’t that enough?”

All the elders of the Mamen Clan nodded and agreed. Saber Philip rolled his eyes and asked, “Then who is going to pay to Lucifer…”

“Of course it is going to your Saber Family.” Box Hort said. “A Saber member is killed, and we are all here to help you guys out. Do you want us to pay?”

All the elders from Saber Family all changed expressions. All Mamen Demons were greedy and no Mamen Demon was willing to give anything to others.

“Saber Philip, it is your son who caused this trouble. Even if I’m from Saber Family, I’m willing to pay, that is within reason.”

“That is right. Although the Tenth Princess couldn’t become the future Demon King, it was heard that the Crown Prince is interested in his own sister. If this princess became a concubine of the Crown Prince, it would be troublesome for us.”

“Yeah, those whispers and pillow talks are very powerful! We should deal with it right now just in case!”

All the elders from other families suggested.

“You….. you demons…” Saber Philip was very angry. He lost his son and he needed to pay this cost? If that was the case, he would rather not seek to avenge his son.

“Ok, since everything is determined, our meeting is done here.” Box Hort stood up and smiled at Saber Philip who felt like he was bleeding. “I will go to the Mamen Execution Department with you. Although your son died, we Mamen Demon can’t act like turtles. What about our Mamen honors?”

Saber Philip’s face looked gloomy. He swore in his mind, “Now you are talking about the honor of the Mamens? Where were you when it was time to pay?”

The leader of Saber Family and Box Family were sitting at the heads of the table. They looked at each other and nodded. Everything was simple in their eyes, as long as Lucifer Lucy is satisfied and the face of Mamen Demons was saved, paying up to kill that mixed-blood demon was a simple task.

“Since it is determined, let’s go.” Saber Philip walked towards the gate anxiously.

“Don’t be so anxious.” Box Hort smiled;. “We can go tomorrow. Supreme City is at the edge of our Mamen Territory.”

“Better to be there earlier.” Saber Philip hurried. He was really mad. His son died and he had to pay up. Right now, he couldn’t wait to kill that mix-blood! Letting that mixed-blood live longer was torture to him.

“Kill him now!” he thought.

“Ok.” Box Hort got up and followed Saber Philip. With a troubled expression on his face, he said, “You… You are just too anxious. If you didn’t push your son onto the position as the general of Supreme City, you son wouldn’t have been killed.”

Saber Philip had the urge to turn around and seal Box Hort’s mouth with a Freeze Spell.

…

The sun just appeared on the horizon, and the Demon Territory was enjoying the warm sunlight. Although everything was calm, Box Taylor wasn’t feeling it.

Last night, the Elder Council of Mamen Demons rushed into Supreme City with Execution Troop from Mamen Execution Department. If he didn’t know that no war was happening, he would have thought that Lucifer Empire was on the verge of collapse as soon as he saw the Execution Troop.

The Execution Troop had the most elite Mamen Demon Warriors. Although the warriors in the troop were just a little less powerful compared to the Dark Group of Lucifer Demons, they were on the same level in terms of status. Including the Zence Empire and the Barbarian Empire, there weren’t many troops that could be compared with them.

After hearing that Lucifer Lucy was sleeping, Saber Philip also ran into her room to wake her up. However, he was held back by others, and he was waiting in the main hall all night without sleep.

Creak…

Lucifer Lucy opened the door. “Oh? Mayor Taylor? Why are you here so early in…” she asked.

“Your Highness…” Box Taylor rubbed his hands together and said what he thought were the most non-offensive words, “After your retinue killed Saber Nisfer yesterday…”

“Eh…” Lucifer Lucy frowned. With an annoyed expression on her face, she said, “So what? Is the Saber Family here to cause trouble? That Jiliu Feijing is so arrogant and he caused so much issue for me…. I shouldn’t have accepted him as my retinue…. But Mayor Taylor, if the Saber Family want me to hand over my retinue…”

The smile on Box Taylor’s face got brighter as he heard that. He felt like the Tenth Princess also wasn’t happy about that mixed-blood and he felt like the Elder Council understood this princess well.

“The Saber Family sent some demons here…” Box Taylor replied with a troubled expression. “I heard that even Mamen Execution Department came.”

“Mamen Execution Department?” Lucifer Lucy’s face changed color. She suddenly raised her voice and said, “What do you mean? Are you Mamens trying to commit treason? Or do you think I am easily to bully?”

“No, no, no… Your Highness misunderstood.”

Box Taylor quickly shook his head. He was actually pretty happy, he saw a bit a fear in Lucifer Lucy’s eyes when he said Mamen Execution Department.

“It seems like she is afraid as well. This negotiation is a lot easier!”

“They are elders for a reason.” Box Taylor thought to himself, “Using Mamen Execution Department to pressure her and then offering her a good deal? Damn, even a princess have to agree and give out that mixed-blood.”

“These are a lot of bandits around Supreme City, and they are here to help.” Box Taylor tried to explain, “Please don’t overthink.”

Lucifer Lucy nodded, “So it is like that…”

“Yeah…”

Box Taylor quickly followed up. “It doesn’t matter if she believes me or not. Mamen Execution Department is here, and they would kill that damn mixed-blood if she doesn’t want to hand him over! Even if we have to pay a price, we need to protect the honor of the Mamen Demons!” he thought.

“Then lead the way. Let me see who is here.”

Lucifer Lucy placed her hands behind her back as she looked a little troubled, and she followed Box Taylor into the main hall in the mayor’s mansion.

Saber Philip was knocking the table rapidly and showed his anxious heart.

Box Hort, on the other hand, was coldly staring at this demon who had been rivaling him for numerous years. “This kid Box Taylor can now completely control Supreme City and more money will flow into the pockets of the Box Family.” He thought joyfully.
