"Work? What work? It's so late. I thought that you wanted to sleep.", Alia asked Liu Feng.
"Don't worry about it. Nothing too important. I will take care of it. You should have so rest. God knows what that king of the magical forest did to your mind. Rest is what you need right now.", Liu Feng shook his head.
"You better have so rest as well. You did not get any sleep when you drove. I imagine that it must take so effort to drive for so long. You should be careful.", Alia warned him.
"Don't worry about . I can take care of myself. I know what I need to do. Go.", Liu Feng reassured her.
Alia nodded, and she scurried off inside. Liu Feng looked at her leaving figure and sighed, but he did not get off the car. Liu Feng stayed inside the car for a while, just sitting there immobile. He stared at the mansion in front of his blankly for a while, and after that, he took out sothing from his pocket. It was a device of sorts, but it's purpose wasn't really very clear. After a while, he called out, "Please co out. It is getting a bit uncomfortable, seeing that you won't budge even a bit."
"I must really comnd your tenacity. Most humans don't just sit there and wait patiently when they sense that a powerful presence is watching them. I was so sure that you were going to attack .", a voice said, giggling a little.
"Well, how could I act aggressively against you, especially when you helped twice already in defeating demons. You saved my life, the least I can do is wait till you tell what you want.", Liu Feng said as he hastily put the device back into his pocket.
"So, you are alive. That is surprising.", Feng Huang said. In an instant, she appeared on the hood of the car, and sat in front of Liu Feng.
Liu Feng's eyebrow raised. "You wanted to die, didn't you?"
"Well, it would certainly be interesting. So, how did your negotiations go?", Feng Huang asked him.
"I am here. I am sure that you would know if I had the armour with . You would sense it wouldn't you?", Liu Feng smiled bitterly.
"Well, what did I tell you?", Feng Huang shook her head.
"I wasted two days. Nothing ca out of them. The king did not even listen to my requests. He said that we were prepared enough to deal with the demons that have arrived.", Liu Feng lanted. "Whatever the hell that ans. It ans that he doesn't care if all of the continent rots in hell as long as his magical forest is fine. That's what it ans.", Liu Feng cursed.
"The king has his reasons. He never does anything that is detrintal to the continent. I can assure you of that."
"He told that we could deal with the demons ourselves. How is he so sure?", Liu Feng asked.
"Well, that can only an good things. Although the tiger hates humans, he cherished Dicain more than you do. It is our mother, more than yours. We will do anything to protect it. The fact that he did nothing yet only ans that he is looking at it for the long run."
"Well, whatever. All I see is that we are alone and we have to start thinning the ranks slowly. I am pretty sure that the army that we currently have is nowhere even close to being able to fight the demons, and I do not want to waste any magical cores on demon fodder, and so early on. The guns are supposed to be our last resort."
"Well, what do you want to do? Thinning the demons is going to be extrely hard. Rember the force that ca knocking on my door? You thought that that was a lot of demons. You can expect at least a hundred tis that considering that this is an early deploynt of demons. You have to expect an army of a hundred thousand demons at the soldier level, and at least a thousand more in the captain level. For that, we have to expect ten generals and a minister. We killed two generals, so we should see them in full alert."
"At least I am glad that our main force is interested in killing the demons, unlike the supposed strongest of the continent."
Feng Luang just shook her head. "You, or any of the humans, or any other mortal for that matter, would not be here if not for the sacrifice that the king of the magical forest made. He did not go to war with the dragons because he knew that the dragons were a vital force against the demons. He sacrificed more than you know."
Liu Feng was interested. He put his hand on his chin and looked interestingly at Feng Luang, who sat on the hood of the car now.
"Tell then. What incredible sacrifice did the king make? What happened in the first demon war that everyone is so hesitant to speak about. No spirit is telling any details."
She leaned closer to Liu Feng and whispered, "Well, that is too bad. It is not my secret to tell. Maybe Pyrus will tell you in the future, when you are ready."
"Ready? I am about to go to war for the continent. I am definitely ready to hear a secret that can help in my fight."
She just smiled and said, "Trust . This is just a street fight. I am just helping you because you are giving residence. You have yet to see true war, boy. You have not seen the terror and pain that it brings." She got off the hood and just walked away, leaving a dazed Liu Feng sitting with his head tilted up.
