The Demon World.
“Even this piece of land has died?”
Cecily half-knelt on a piece of land that had already turned white.
This was the territory of one of the four dukes of the demon world, the water elemental lord.
After the land surrounding the demon world’s towns and villages that grew crops gradually turned gray and withered, Cecily decided to open up a new farm on this piece of land.
!!
However, the ground beneath Cecily’s feet had already started to show signs of gray and white, gradually turning from soil into gray dust, losing any value.
This kind of gray and white spread like a plague in the demon world. Even if the prophet had found countless methods of human cultivation, he would not be able to use them.
“What’s going on?”
Cecily looked at the decaying trees around her, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.
She could quell the uneasiness in the Royal City of the demonic realm, eliminate all the uneasiness that threatened the people in the royal city, and re-establish diplomatic relations with the human kingdom.
But faced with such a strange disease, Cecily was powerless.
She had searched many books in the library of the Royal City of the demonic realm, but none of them had recorded such a situation.
A dark green teleportation door appeared behind Cecily, and the petite figure of the prophet walked out from it.
“His Highness, Joshua, is back,”the prophet said.
“Joshua?”
Cecily immediately stood up when she heard the name.
The uneasiness caused by the corruption of the land gradually disappeared..
Joshua had brought too many miracles to the demon world. From the beginning, he had allowed the human kingdom, Faroese, to establish diplomatic relations with the demon world, making some of the special products of the Demon World become ‘Hot Sellers’in Nolan, these were all things that Cecily had never imagined before.
“Take me to see him.”
Cecily followed the prophet into the dark green teleportation portal.
The teleportation portal led to the center of the Demon World’s Imperial City, the center of the power of the entire demon world.
Cecily came all the way to the courtyard and saw Joshua, whom she had not seen for almost a month.
She immediately walked up to Joshua and began to examine him before he could speak.
”…”
Joshua could only let his eldest sister push him around. She cupped his face with both hands and looked at him for a long time, then looked at his hands again.
She was trying to confirm if there were any signs of injury on Joshua’s body. Ever since he was young, the third Prince of the Demon World liked to play with dangerous things and then torture himself until he was covered in injuries.
However, the third Prince of the past had already died in an experiment. For the current Joshua, it was just a copy of his memories.
Therefore, Joshua’s feelings for his eldest sister only stayed with an older friend. Moreover, it was a friend that he needed to avoid.
The reason why Joshua did not return to the demon world was that he did not want to see Cecily.
After all, Joshua needed to hide some cruel facts from Cecily.
“Who are they?”
Cecily was relieved after confirming that her brother did not do anything to court death. She then looked behind Joshua again.
“The old Chinese medicine doctors I invited for you… No, they are high elves… They have the ability to heal the gray fog.”
Joshua pointed at the high elf priests standing behind him.
Although Hiri had been standing next to Joshua the whole time, Joshua did not introduce her, because Cecily’s elder sister had long heard about this human girl.
“High Elves?”
Cecily looked at the tall figures behind Joshua. When the leader of the High Elves looked at Cecily, Cecily read something called ‘hostility’.
But she quickly controlled the dangerous look in her eyes.
“My name is Enya. I’m here on behalf of the children of the forest.”
Elder Enya only briefly introduced her identity.
Cecily’s understanding of the Elves was only limited to the ‘idols’that had recently become very popular on the magic web. These elves were beautiful, and they could sing and dance, thinking about it, it seemed that her succubus also had such skill points.
“They can heal the ashes of the land?”
Cecily was not in the mood to think about what was happening on the magic web. The large-scale ashes of the land in the demon world had gradually become a threat to the existence of the demon world.
Although the golden potion that Jose gave Cecily could alleviate the spread of the ashes, it still seemed a little… powerless in this vast land.
“The ash of the land is still continuing? It’s a little tricky. Sister Cecily, have you… seen father?”
Joshua vaguely remembered that if he wanted to go up to the top of the tower to see Fuya, he would have to be a special person permitted by the ruler of the demon world, such as the Dark Elf thousand faces. The others would have to first obtain the permission of the ruler.
“Father hasn’t come out of the altar for a long time.”
Cecily looked at the tallest building in the royal city. Joshua’s words reminded her of another thing that she was worried about.
“He hasn’t… Come Out Yet?”
If Joshua remembered correctly, the first time he saw the ruler was in the Guardian’s altar.
He had never left the altar since then… in other words, he had been in there for a whole year!
“Sister Cecily, didn’t you knock on the door?”
Jose immediately walked towards the altar, a sense of unease lingering in his heart.
“I went to ask father, but he hasn’t replied to me recently,”Cecily said.
“Then you should just push the door open and go in!”
What if your old father had a stroke again!
Joshua held back his next sentence. Cecily was not the kind of woman who liked to joke around.
“Breaking into the guardian altar by force has violated the taboo of our clan. You will be… sentenced to death,”Cecily warned Joshua.
“Taboo again…”
When Joshua heard this word, he felt a headache coming on. He looked at the High Elves behind him. This group of elves also had a lot of clan rules that made him feel uncomfortable.
“But it’s almost time for the king’s selection. Now, I have enough reasons to ask father.”
Fortunately, Cecily was a flexible person. She understood that things were too abnormal under Joshua’s signal. She could not wait any longer.
“We can’t go in there, right?”
Hiri looked at the water elemental servants walking in the castle corridor and approached Joshua to ask in a low voice.
Just from the name of the altar that Joshua mentioned, Hiri felt that this was another place that ‘outsiders are not allowed to enter’.
“This… Alright, Hiri, you and the High Elves wait here for a while.”
Joshua glanced at his eldest sister’s serious expression and could only let Hiri and the high elf priests wait on the spot. He then followed Cecily all the way to the position of the guardian altar.
The gate of the guardian altar was still locked. Cecily silently glanced at Joshua who was behind her, and silently muttered, “Forgive me,”before using her hand to push open the stone door that was engraved with inscriptions.
The gate was gradually pushed open… a thick smell of blood quietly filled the entire corridor.
The Guardian altar was shrouded in darkness. Joshua took out a illuminating primary crystal to dispel the surrounding darkness. In the distance, there was a vague figure kneeling on the ground.
“Father!”Cecily wanted to go forward and talk to the ruler, but she gradually stopped after taking a few steps forward.
Joshua came behind Cecily with the glowing crystal and saw the figure in the darkness.
The ruler of the demon world, Notlon Yanorod.
However, this ruler was kneeling on the ground, supporting his aging body with the long sword behind him while holding a heart in his other hand.
This heart was the ruler’s own..
The blood had already dripped on the ground and gradually dried up, and the heart had completely withered and died..
A murder case in a secret room? This was the first thought that popped up in Joshua’s mind when he saw this scene.
However, Cecily, who was beside him, was already in a state of rage.
“Cecily’s elder sister, there seems to be a scroll on the ground.”
Joshua looked at Cecily’s clenched fists. She was trying to control her emotions. Joshua took a deep breath and pointed at the ground. There was a scroll placed in front of the ruler’s sword.
Cecily walked slowly to the corpse of the ruler and picked up the scroll on the ground. She opened the scroll after confirming that there was no magic power or mechanism in the scroll.
“These are… father’s notes,”Cecily said in a low voice.
