After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King Chapter 93 - 92 Satan Ye is Always So Curious

"[Letter sent to—

"Dear Yila Elkaras and the honorable Satan Ye:]

"We have heard that the millennia-long war between the Demon Country and the Empire has recently ended. The Silver Moon Tree Court is delighted to see the World Tree return to peace, and we are willing to make efforts for the well-being of the demons.]

"Please forgive the trade route interruption caused by the war, but perhaps it is necessary to restart it. If the Demon Country agrees, the trade team from the Silver Moon Tree Court will arrive within this quarter.]

"At that ti, I also hope Mr. Yila Elkaras can co for a visit to the Silver Moon Tree Court.]

"We look forward to your reply.]

"—Personally by Cassiopeia Iluvita."

...

"Hmm, it has the seal of the Silver Moon Tree Court. It’s quite an official letter."

Yila, attending the morning eting, comnted as he handed the letter Senata had given him earlier to Satan Ye. He said, "A stable trade route is beneficial in every way. Even if Cassiopeia hadn’t ntioned it, I would gradually negotiate with the surrounding nations."

Yes, this was the original plan. Now that Cassiopeia had proactively brought up the reconstruction of trade, Yila no longer needed to send a greeting letter first.

"The elves... during the war between the demons and the empire, they decisively cut off trade."

Hilena said with a sigh. The resources in the demon-controlled area gradually beca scarce during that ti, and they had to rely on the expensive supplies of the War Traders to survive.

But it really wasn’t fair to bla the elves. Their actions couldn’t easily be defined as kicking soone while they’re down. After all, they just stopped providing consistent aid in a ti of need.

It was hard to bla them, but it still felt a bit unsettling in the heart.

Yila nodded and responded, "The elves had many options. They didn’t need to take the risks associated with war trade. Their requirents for quality of life weren’t high, and trade with any nation wasn’t necessary for them."

These words made Vera, sitting near Yila, turn her head. She looked at Yila, who was speaking calmly, and asked, "Huh? I thought you would speak up for the Silver Moon Tree Court, considering the old relationship~"

"You wish!" Yila scolded her, shaking his head helplessly. He looked at Satan Ye, who was seriously reading the letter, and then softly explained to everyone, "Actually, what I said already counts as speaking up for the Silver Moon Tree Court."

After all, Yila was now part of the Demon King Territory, and his words were quite neutral. Though he had the capital to remain neutral... His power ant he didn’t need to stand from anyone’s perspective.

On the contrary, it was *everyone else* who needed to consider things from his perspective.

"Elf Empress, Cassiopeia... I’ve heard she’s a strong warrior."

The Insect-Man Clan leader said, his small, round black eyes revealing a desire for a fight.

"..."

Yila thought for a mont. He had no particular impression of that aspect, but he had heard it was true. He hesitantly nodded and said, "At least her archery is strong. I don’t really know about her combat strength, but the rumors are she’s very powerful."

As Yila finished speaking, Vera moved closer again, teasingly asking, "Is her archery very strong~ Did Cassiopeia shoot an arrow right into your heart~"

It was worth ntioning that in this world, "[shoot an arrow into your heart]" had a similar aning, which was to "gain soone’s favor (love)." So... Vera was up to mischief again.

"..."

"Wow, what a terrifying aura! Cough cough..."

Vera said, looking fearfully at Yila, who had a dangerous look in his eyes. She imdiately hugged him from behind and exaggeratedly cried, "I was wrong, Lord Yila, please forgive ~ Sobbing~"

Yila’s expression instantly turned from one ready to hit soone to one of shock. He tried to pull his head out of her embrace.

"Vera, let go of ."

"No!"

"Vera, you rascal, let go, or I’ll hit you!"

"If you hit , I won’t let go! Woooo, please forgive ~"

"Stop coming closer!"

"Sob sob sob sob sob~~~~~"

"Stop, I won’t hit you, I won’t hit you!"

"..."

At these words, Vera imdiately released Yila lightly. Amid the shocked expressions of other leaders, she sat back in her seat with a satisfied look and a smug expression: "Heh heh heh."

"Huff huff huff..."

Yila was gasping for breath, rubbing his face that had been squeezed. He helplessly looked at Vera with that smug look of *heh, you can’t go back on your word*, and sighed, "Sigh, *heh*, where are your noble manners?!"

Upon hearing Yila’s words, Vera realized Yila knew nothing about her family. She shrugged casually and said, "Huh? Where would our family have any noble manners..."

Oh, that seed right.

Yila rembered that the Yayliinoceyatos family was notorious for having no artistic or etiquette heritage but had incredibly strong magical talents. They were, in a way, nouveau riche.

By the ti it got to Vera’s generation, they were so exceptionally strong that she had succeeded in the highly difficult ritual magic "Witch Demon Transformation" ... which had led to this situation.

As everyone watched Vera and Yila interact, Satan Ye seed to have understood the letter’s aning. She remarked, "If Mr. Yila hadn’t co, this letter might never have appeared."

"..."

These words made Yila feel embarrassed. *Wasn’t this implying "Cassiopeia is here because of Yila"?*

Yila thought about it in his mind. How should he explain to make everyone believe him?— *Cassiopeia really wasn’t an old fla, just an old teammate.*

"Indeed, that’s the case."

Little Black nodded... aning the Black Knight Leader—Blake Black. He answered very clearly, "It is precisely because of Mr. Yila’s reputation and strength that surrounding nations have no choice but to acknowledge us."

Satan Ye: "Yes, precisely. The Beastman Country and the Dwarf Country, and even the Duchy, might send letters before long too, right?"

"..."

Oh, so that’s what it ant.

Yila felt relieved. All this ti, they were talking about how strong he was. He thought Satan Ye was implying it was due to personal feelings related to Cassiopeia, that he and Cassiopeia had a good personal relationship... or rather, that his reputation among the elves was quite good.

More or less, it was like, *"Huh? The Empire doesn’t want Yila? Great! Let’s win him over!"*

"But what kind of king is Cassiopeia?"

Satan Ye asked, her curious eyes full of inquisitive desire. She looked at Yila and said, "Miss Senata, write a reply expressing our agreent... Mr. Yila, tell about Cassiopeia during training later?"

*In the end, it couldn’t be avoided...*

Yila sighed and nodded gently.
