This Overlord Doesn't Care About Anything Book 1: Chapter 32: Chatting Business With Demons

Early this morning, I got up especially early to observe the scene of Aleya and Felita repelling Demons.

At first, the two of them refused to let go on the grounds that they felt that I was too weak. If by any chance so Demon shot an arrow at , what would they do if I suddenly departed to the afterlife? But I certainly wouldnt listen to them, how could I miss such a good viewing opportunity? Therefore, I, as the City Lord, unyieldinglyalright, actually I ordered them with both statuses as City Lord and their young master and finally obtained a front-row seat ticket.

By the way, this so-called front-row seat is naturally above the city walls.

Aleya and Felita stood in different regions.

Aleya stood below the city walls west side while Felita stood on top of the city walls west side.

When the invasion first started, I didnt have reactions. It was only after the west side started to gradually darken did I discover an extra layer of densely packed things. This layer wouldve been very unfriendly to those who have agoraphobia. Fortunately, these waves gradually dispersed like spilling black sesa seeds onto a scale. After they ca a bit closer, it could be seen that it was an overwhelming amount of Demons covering the heavens and earth, with a population of at least 1,000.

Felita tightly held the Worthless Wooden Cane in her hands as she gulped.

I patted her shoulder and asked:

A little nervous?

Felita whispered:

There werent this many Demons in the past.

I chuckled:

Revenge. What else could it be. Last ti I deceived them by saying we were here to bring just you out. The outco? Not only did we bring you out, we also killed quite a few of their minions. Wouldnt you be angry if that happened to you?

Felita giggled.

She asked :

Can you hold my hand?

I held her hand.

Then, she lifted up the Worthless Wooden Cane and chanted a complex invocation.

This was the first ti I had seriously seen magic being used after arriving to this world; it was quite the vast magic.

A vast and complicated magic circle appeared within the skies and countless flas started raining from down from it. The entire ground seed to have been scorched and even the soil beneath was starting to lt. The black cloud of Demons that wanted to ravage the city was t head-on with the first wave of fla rain.

Instantly, the flas spread like a wildfire and the black tide turned into a sea of flas.

The entirety of West-Resisting City could clearly hear the anguished howls.

This is what is known as a sorcerer!

Before the goblins were able to even hurl their stone hatchets, their invulnerable skins were covered with a layer of fire.

Horned rabbits directly beca roasted rabbit at.

There were so Demons that tried to resist. For example, Ekans sprayed their pridedVenomtowards the sky, then rapidly slithered over towards West-Resisting City once the flas were extinguished. As for the demonic wolves, they howled and used their superior speed to dodge the incoming flas. Even with the resistance, at least of the Demons died under the fire rain.

Soon after, lightning and thunder followed.

Soon after, a thousand feet of ice covered the field.

Soon after, boulders tumbled from the skies.

Soon after, a mass of violent wind blades cut through.

Like a child showing off her grades, Felita displayed all the magic she was proficient in.

The outco? She exhaustedly panted as she weakly leaned on .

Only a few dozen Demons were able to arrive below West-Resisting City and they were the ones with relatively high levels. Purely depending on Felitas magic wouldnt be enough to solve them. Using Darwins words, this was what was called natural selection, survival of the fittest; the Demons that couldnt adapt to Felitas magic had already died cleanly. As such, those that lived were the strongest of the bunch.

Unfortunately, before those blood-covered powerhouses could begin their siege on the city, they were cut down by the long-waiting Aleyas sword.

In simpler terms, this was the strategy of letting the sorcerer(mage) sweep the field first, getting rid of the nurous small fry, then letting the swordsman solo the remaining higher levels. Although swordsmanship didnt have much to give in terms of AoE damage, they were the absolute kings in individual output.

So this is swordsmanship

Felita acclaid in a low voice:

It was very inconvenient to solve those remaining Demons in the past since it required a bit higher level magic to kill them. But at the sa ti, its also very dangerous to use up a great amount of manaI feel very relieved with Aleya present.

Thats only to be expected, you should rember whose knight this is.

I patted her shoulder:

Aleyas very strong. But without your assistance, it would be impossible to kill so many Demons. Go back and rest first, Ill go pick up Aleya.

Felita breathed heavily as she leaned on the city wall.

With how many more Demons there were compared to the past and how anxiously she wanted to display her magic in front of , the outco was most likely that she overdrafted her mana. A sorcerers mana wasnt infinite.

After receiving Aleya, I simply made her return to the city and look after Felita. While she wanted to follow , she obediently returned once I told her that the vicinity was very safe.

The only thing left to do was to take inventory of the harvest!

I made a circle around the battlefield and what ca into sight was a dazzling array of loot. The only thing unfortunate was that these things didnt directly drop and wait for to collect them like in a ga. Instead, it required to manually collect the materials from the bodies of the dead Demons. As a result, there was a lot of uncommon material that I wasnt able to count. But solely based on the common materials, there would be a profit of several dozen gold coins, much faster than the money I made by horse racing and dog fighting in the past.

But this still wasnt enough. This type of head-giving wave wasnt sothing that would occur if one just wished for it.

So the question arises. How do you change this occasional at pie from the skies event into a sustainable new kind of business?

I glanced back stealthily. After determining that Aleya and Felita werent looking at , I stole into the woods, walking towards the depths of the forest.

When I reached a small piece of open space, I stopped my steps.

Co out, I know youre nearby. For a Level 6 Spearman to appear within the horde of goblins, you ought to be a commander, right? I dont have much ti; if by any chance my guard notices that Ive disappeared, shell imdiately hurry over here. Before that occurslets have a chat, shall we? A human discussing business with a Demon sounds novel, doesnt it?

Not long after my voice fell, a tall and sturdy figure slowly erged from the trees.
