Deep in the cave, the sound of the skeletons’ movents echoed, and Shami stood up as the elf maiden moved closer to him.
The little flirtation—or rather, the little squabble—that surfaced after their reunion nearly made the elf maiden forget their current predicant.
Shami appeared in this cave as he was carrying out his plan to eradicate the Skeleton Race.
After dealing with the rebellious Rolling Stone Spirit and Zombie Race, he set his sights on the Skeleton Race.
The Skeleton Race following Bichu’er was extensive, with a total of more than twenty thousand skeleton soldiers spread throughout the mountain range. Skeletons could appear in any cave passage.
Only after dealing with these minions can he focus on Bichu’er.
Now, the cave Shami entered is occupied by the largest number of skeletons, the main camp of the Skeleton Race. Inside, there are not only skeleton soldiers but various identities of skeletons.
"Shami, can you really handle so many skeletons? Earlier, I ran into a Skeleton Strategist and a Skeleton General."
The elf maiden looked at Shami worriedly.
Shami snapped back to reality and glanced at the elf maiden beside him.
"What are you talking about? Before you arrived, I’d already dealt with over 2,000 skeletons."
"So strong! — It couldn’t possibly be a boast!"
The elf maiden opened her mouth wide in surprise, as she pondered, pinching her chin.
"Actually, within the demon tribe, if we really have to compare, Shami is inferior to Lina in strength and lags behind Saili in magic. Daily tasks are always completed by the Demon Envoy and demons, supposedly to give away precious training opportunities but really just to be lazy. If we delve deeper, Shami’s current strength might be similar to mine or even a bit weaker. Saying sothing like that probably ans he’s just showing off in front of his girlfriend, right?"
"One month without seeing each other and you’re inflating yourself this way, huh? How about I challenge you right now?"
Shami’s brow twitched slightly, and he held the flat, golden-haired face with both hands and began to tease it.
"Demon King vs. Demon Envoy is inherently unequal... and could you bear to hit such a pretty maiden...? I believe you... Let go, my lips are swelling..."
The elf maiden’s little face was squished by Shami’s hands, her rosy lips puffed up with a strange tone.
At this mont, another group of skeletons appeared in the cave where the two were, surrounding them.
The elf maiden quickly grabbed the Elf Soft Sword nearby, her slightly reddish face from being held by Shami now turned serious.
"Shami, enemy attack!"
"There’s no need to report an enemy that’s charging right at us!"
Shami looked around, noting there were about fifty skeletons.
Unexpectedly, after charging all the way here and always being the one chasing the skeletons, there were still so fearless skeletons daring to provoke him head-on?
"Shami, do you rember our first ti fighting side by side?"
This ti, with Shami by her side, the elf maiden felt evidently more confident, facing the skeletons with not a shred of fear, her eyes passionately looking at Shami.
"You’re talking about that ti with the rogue swordsman Cash?"
"Exactly!"
The elf maiden’s face was full of fighting spirit.
"I never got a good look at what you used to defeat Cash last ti. How about this ti, we compete on who defeats more skeletons? If I win, you’ll tell the secret."
"No way."
Shami seed to recall so unpleasant mory and imdiately refused.
"Alright, now—begin!"
The elf maiden tiptoed as she charged into the skeleton group.
With Shami behind her, the maiden felt no hesitation, treating this place as a training ground.
"You never listen to , Lureya! Starting the competition yourself isn’t fair at all!"
Shami complained, but he also started to take it seriously.
Since he had decided to hide the humiliation of using ○○ to defeat Cash, even she wouldn’t ntion it when writing the demon tribe’s history book in the future. There’s no way he’d let the flat golden hair dig up this old wound.
Having successfully slain 4 skeletons, the elf maiden turned her attention to the still stationed Shami.
Hum, Demon King or whatever, in the end, will fall at the feet of the elf maiden.
At this mont, Shami reached for his Demon King Ring, pulling out sothing resembling a spray and held it high above his head.
"Crispy Bang-Bang Spray!"
"What is this, Shami? It seems there’s strange background music now!"
"This was developed by the Demon King; just spray it on the bones and it’ll accelerate bone aging and loosening."
Shami used the spray, aiming it at the surrounding skeletons.
In the hazy mist, the skeletons quickly felt their bodies becoming dry and brittle, with each vigorous movent causing cracks all over the joints.
Many skeletons fell on the spot, and when a few touched the nearby rocks, a hole imdiately appeared.
"Oh no! It’s a fracture!"
"It shatters with a touch!"
All the skeletons surrounding Shami collapsed to the ground, and Shami stomped with his feet, breaking the necks of the skeletons one by one.
[Skeletons defeated: 34, occupying over 60% of all skeletons]
"Shami, did you also pull out so weird thing to defeat Cash last ti?"
The elf maiden, fighting with her sword against the skeletons, looked at Shami discontentedly.
"Hum, it’s the power of the technology tree."
