When Yila and the Demon King’s army ca here, they marched, but they didn’t need to work as hard when returning. Everyone chose to take ships back... ships piloted by the sea demons.

Yes, everyone confidently sat on the ships piloted by the sea demons because it was clear to all—they no longer had any chance to rebel or do anything.

Capsize the ships? Then petrify the sea surface.

Wrong course? The chanical Bodies could sense the direction of the Demon King Territory.

Head into a dangerous sea full of magic beasts hoping to die together? The danger would be for the magic beasts instead.

Moreover, at this mont, the three leaders among the sea demons were gathered in Yila’s room, being scrutinized by his gaze... of course, Satan Ye was there too, and the other leaders were watching from outside the room.

"We were just..."

As the rfolk Leader tried to defend herself, Yila cut her off: "You are just a bunch of traitors, despicable betrayers, and slaves who are unnecessary."

"But..."

Yila silenced the rmaid Leader with a look and said coldly, "What ’but’? The Gorgons chose betrayal, and it seems you’re no different."

"Perhaps it would be better if you all died here, just like the Gorgons... if you want to say more, your mouths will soon be as hard as your so-called words, and then I’ll shatter them and throw the pieces into the sea."

Yila spoke without reservation. He looked out at the boundless sea and turned to glance at the rmaid Leader who pretended she hadn’t heard anything... she was the most afraid.

Seemingly noticing Yila’s gaze, she quickly averted her eyes and trembled with her head down.

The other leaders outside, peering through the window, seed sowhat sympathetic... but they said nothing because the betrayal was a fact, and they understood the reason for Yila’s attitude.

High pressure could bring fear, and comfort within that oppression could bring loyalty.

"In the Kingdom of the Demon King, there are sea demons and Gorgons. So, after killing all of you, the world’s sea demons won’t be extinct, only fewer traitors, fewer useless slaves."

Yila spoke coldly, continuing even though he was not good at this kind of thing—he couldn’t bring himself to insult their parents or family.

Even if crude words might be effective in insulting them, he couldn’t co up with them or say them... so playing the bad cop (good cop) was sowhat difficult for him.

"Do you think you still have any value?"

Yila asked this, but the three leaders in front of him hung their heads, afraid to even breathe loudly. He felt like laughing but restrained himself, pretending to be angry as he shouted, "I’m asking you a question! Are your fish ears just ornants? Salted fish?!"

The three sea demons, called salted fish by Yila, seed to react. The Naga Leader frowned and said, "We are the Demon King’s only naval force, and only we know how to build ships, and also..."

Yila thought this was enough. He waved his hand dismissively, belittling them: "Shut up! You are worthless to ! Your flesh and soul might be the best resources for the Demon King Territory."

As he said this, Yila looked out the window at the Headless Knight Leader—Lodya; Lodya nodded cooperatively and said, "The losses in manpower this ti were extrely severe (four), we urgently need soul replenishnt, but I doubt the sea demons qualify because they are just..."

At this point, Lodya seed unable to continue, feeling quite embarrassed.

"Yes, you’re just trash, trash among trash, utterly useless."

Yila picked up where she left off. He reached out and pressed down on the head of the Naga Leader, who had the strongest will to resist, forcing her to look at him. He stared into her defiant eyes and said, "Can you sing? Sing and let hear it."

"..."

Ignoring the silent Naga Leader, Yila looked at the rmaid Leader and rfolk Leader and said, "It doesn’t matter; if you don’t sing, I’ll play gas with the other two."

"You’re close, right? I’ll chain their hands over their heads onto steel bars, and below their feet and tails will be red-hot iron plates. They’ll dance around, and by then, even if you sing, it’ll only be to accompany their dance."

"..."

Yila looked at the silent Naga Leader with her head down and then at the other two whose faces had turned pale. *He wondered... had he misunderstood their relationship?*

But having co this far, he decided to bluff and scare them for a bit longer.

"Soone, prepare..."

But before Yila could finish his order, the Naga Leader raised her head, tears of humiliation streaming down her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "You devil! What song do you want to hear?"

All of her forr colleagues just watched. Even Satan Ye had no intention of helping them... Lonely, helpless, and pitiable, she felt deep remorse—if they hadn’t betrayed the Demon King Territory back then, would things be different?

"Your voice is too horrible to hear. I don’t want to listen... let the other two sing."

Yila belittled the sea demons’ most prized voices, but the three had no room left for anger. They looked like three walking corpses, completely at Yila’s rcy.

At this point, it was almost enough.

Yila breathed a sigh of relief. He stopped tornting the three sea demons and torturing himself... If there were an interrogation demon, he wouldn’t need to be doing this. He would only need to instruct those interrogation demons.

*Eye contact, eye contact*

"..."

Satan Ye seed to feel pity for the sea demons. So why not stop ? Wasn’t that the plan from the start?

Yila looked at Satan Ye with so confusion. When she noticed and looked back at him curiously, he made a few more eye signals, but she seed to have forgotten the agreed-upon plan and just waited curiously... so what are you doing?

"So, Yila sir... what song should they sing?"

Satan Ye looked expectantly.

Hey, if you want to hear a song, I’ll sing it for you later. Just fulfill your role as the "good cop," okay? Yila thought, feeling a bit speechless, with his thoughts suddenly scrambled, not knowing what to say.

"Hmm, any song will do."

Saying this, Satan Ye grabbed the hands of the three leaders, holding them with both hands. With a playful smile and in their pitiful gazes, she said, "Anyway, welco back."

"..."

"Wuu wuu wuu~"

"Awaa waa waa waa~~"

"Ying ying ying ying~"

They cried, holding their heads and weeping uncontrollably—as if in a manga or so cheap animation, their tears flowed like waterfalls. From this perspective, there was no longer any chance of them betraying again.

If I wanted to use them, it might be troubleso... but it doesn’t matter. Loyalty to the Demon King is enough.

Just...

"..."

Yila: My bedsheets...
