Early in the morning,
After spending a peaceful night in her mother’s arms, little Yuan’er hugged the ’blissfully happy’ tiny liora and, with her backpack on, cheerily left the Luminous Royal Academy under Yumo’s watchful eye. The scene was reminiscent of a child heading out for a fall excursion, that is, if one ignored the enormous coffin board Yuan’er was dragging behind her.
Watching her daughter’s departing figure, Yumo, standing by the apartnt window, slowly raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
As the crimson power of shadows gathered, a blood-red butterfly suddenly landed on Yumo’s fingertip.
"Go, escort my daughter"
The girl calmly ordered.
Following the command, the bloody butterfly quickly took off from Yumo’s fingertip, flapping its wings and flying towards the direction Yuan’er had left in.
"The Ghost Fla Squad of Kalina seems to have been waiting outside the academy already. Taking care of Yuan’er will also have to trouble them."
Although Yumo was well aware that the Ghost Fla Squad and the Black Rose Family were different, with its mbers being rough and tough types who couldn’t provide the ticulous care Yuan’er was used to, Yumo ultimately decided to entrust the escort mission to the mbers of the Ghost Fla Squad.
On one hand, it was to acknowledge Kalina’s influence,
On the other hand, it was to give her own little daughter a bit of a challenge.
Although Yumo doted on her children, she couldn’t help but wonder if she was spoiling Yuan’er too much? Was Yuan’er becoming increasingly willful because of her pampering?
As the saying goes, excessive love from a mother spoils the child.
To prevent her children from being spoiled, Yumo decided to let them face so hardships. Having a group of brutes who couldn’t serve or cook take care of Yuan’er should provide so training for the child, right?
Yumo naively thought.
"Ah, forget it."
However, Yumo quickly shook her head, abandoning the thought. Because after sending Yuan’er away, she clearly had a more important matter to attend to.
After taking a deep breath,
The indulgent and gentle expression on the black-haired girl’s face disappeared without a trace, replaced by an inherent coldness. The bloody butterflies fluttering around her began to turn fierce and agitated, and the temperature plumted sharply.
Glancing thoughtfully towards two mountains far from the Luminous Royal Academy, Yumo’s crimson eyes narrowed slightly, and a sinister black light briefly flickered through her eyes.

At the sa ti,
Several kiloters away, atop a mountain, mbers of Red Leaf Royal Family’s Reconnaissance Division were absolutely hidden in the dense foliage, quietly observing the distant Luminous Royal Academy through magically enchanted, specially made telescopes.
As humanity’s arch-enemy, it was impossible for Yumo not to be under surveillance.
These elite scouts had taken on such a mission.
-"Keep an eye on bloody butterfly and everyone around it, report imdiately if there’s any movent!"-
This was the task of the reconnaissance division mbers.
Without a doubt, Monitoring a terrifying demon of the abyss with the power of a demon king carries a high risk.
But at this mont, the elite mbers of the reconnaissance division were not so nervous. After the initial anxiety, their hearts had beco calm. Their experiences over the days had taught them that as long as they stayed out of the danger zone estimated by the church, they wouldn’t encounter any danger.
This danger zone was precisely the coverage area of the bloody butterfly’s sensing ability.
Since bloody butterfly usually exists in a state of power compression, its sensing ability is sowhat diminished, making this danger zone not particularly large. Although they were initially skeptical about this "danger zone," after observing for a long ti and seeing that they were not discovered by bloody butterfly, the reconnaissance division mbers gradually let go of their unease.
Monitoring bloody butterfly from a distance beca just another ordinary daily task.
Well…
Perhaps even a visually pleasing daily task? After all, although the bloody butterfly is a demon king... her appearance is stunningly beautiful.
On this day, everyone was maintaining their routine work.
Located in a high-altitude area, the mbers of the reconnaissance division had an unobstructed view of the area below the Luminous Royal Academy.
Later,
Through the observation with telescopes, the reconnaissance division mber responsible for the apartnt area quickly noticed a pink-haired little loli bouncing out of the teacher’s apartnt area. Seeing this, Spencer, the team leader, couldn’t help but frown:
"That little girl who also seems to be a demon king... Is she going out?"
"She’s probably walking her pet, she does that often."
A colleague, drinking coffee, replied nonchalantly.
However,
Spencer decisively shook his head to this answer:
"It doesn’t look like it, she’s carrying a bag, taking luggage? That girl looks like she’s leaving Luminous!"
"Ah? Really?"
At this mont, the colleague quickly put down the coffee and turned a serious gaze toward their team leader:
"She’s suddenly leaving?"
"I’m not sure, but this is undoubtedly important intelligence, send it to His Highness imdiately!"
Spencer said seriously,
anwhile, his gaze was focused on the pink-haired girl the entire ti. With the coronation ceremony of the Holy Saintess approaching, this little demon king suddenly wants to leave Luminous? Although he didn’t understand her intentions, instinct told Spencer that this was not a good sign.
’We must inform His Highness quickly!’
...
’Hmm?’
Thinking this, Spencer couldn’t help but frown. Because, it seed his colleague still hadn’t activated the communication device.
’Dawdling over such important intelligence? Are they asking for trouble?!’
Annoyed, Spencer quickly put down the telescope, turned his head, and glared at his colleague with an inquisitive look:
"What are you doing?! Hurry up, quickly... hurry...?!!!!!"
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Spencer was abruptly cut off, as he shockingly discovered that his colleague’s head was gone. Blood gushed from the neck, quickly staining the surrounding grass red, and the headless corpse collapsed in front of Spencer.
But now, Spencer had no ti to attend to his already deceased colleague, as his gaze was entirely captured by a black monster that appeared behind his colleague.
What Spencer saw was a demon covered in black fur, with a green face and sharp teeth, resembling a giant wolf.
Feeling the aura of the monster, Spencer imdiately got a chill down his spine:
"Abyssal demon?! Why, why is an abyssal demon appearing here?! What, what is it?! How did it get into our barrier?!"
A flood of questions surged in Spencer’s mind,
Sadly, he had no chance to ponder, for upon noticing the naplate around the monster’s neck, Spencer was rooted to the spot. The naplate read ’Lolo’ which belonged to his contracted beast?! aning, the monster that devoured his colleague’s head was his own loyal contracted beast?
"What, what the fu@ck is going on?"
With a mind full of confusion, Spencer watched as the giant wolf’s gaping maw rapidly enlarged in his view.
The next mont,
His questioning was abruptly silenced, replaced by the sounds of the giant wolf feasting.
Suddenly,
The tranquility within the barrier ceased to exist, with blood and fragnts of viscera splattering, staining everything around.
This reconnaissance post of the scouts was left with no survivors.
However,
Spencer did not journey to the afterlife alone. As colleagues should, they stick together. The considerate abyssal demon had already sent all the mbers of the Red Leaf Empire’s twelve reconnaissance points on the road to the netherworld...
As a few bloody butterflies departed, the empire’s elite scouts, who had surveilled Luminous for a long ti, were completely wiped out.

On the other hand,
After ensuring that all the troubleso people nearby were dealt with, Yumo slowly turned her head to survey the classroom apartnts where she had lived for several months. Compared to the past, the servants of the Black Rose, ngxi, and Yuan’er were no longer there, making the large apartnt suddenly feel incredibly empty, which Yumo found slightly uncomfortable.
’I still prefer lively scenes’
But soon,
Yumo shook her head, dismissing the feelings of desolation in her mind.
’Never mind’
’It’s okay’
"After all, it’s going to get lively again soon..."
After a aningful smile, the black-haired girl leaped from the window sill and, under the escort of a scarlet glow, flew towards the inner city of Anvika.
Having co to the most bustling city on the continent, wouldn’t it be regretful not to ’play around’ a bit?
Besides,
’Being arranged and scheduled all the ti is pretty boring, right?’
’Occasionally’
"One must stir things up a bit, mustn’t they?"
