After finding Novia Moon Shadow and confirming her identity, nna imdiately ordered her n to protect her tightly and summoned the team doctor to further diagnose and treat the young wolf cub, ensuring everything was in order.
With most of the matters settled, it was almost dawn.
Although exhausted, nna couldn’t rest yet. She needed to imdiately take people to the Lord’s Mansion to deal with Taylor Tulls, the lord of the Demon Suppression City, who was confird to have colluded with the poaching gang, and quickly gain full control of the situation in the entire northern border stronghold.
In addition, she needed to inform the queen in the Courage City of the results through communication magic, as well as negotiate with the Demon Mountain regarding the follow-up handling plan after Novia was found.
A series of tasks ca one after another, even making Violet worry about the fragile princess who hadn’t slept all night and whose eyes were slightly swollen. But unfortunately, each of these matters needed to be resolved urgently.
Being a leader was not easy... considering nna was just an ordinary person who wasn’t even level 5.
In order to protect the delicate body of the princess, the priestess reluctantly cast recovery magic and long-lasting auxiliary enhancents on her, but nna still needed to rest as soon as possible. After all, the human body was so fragile.
However, Violet wasn’t going to work overti with Princess nna. After she arranged everything and went to the Lord’s Mansion with her shadow followers, the priestess, who had no interest in these trivial matters, bid them farewell for the ti being.
She then returned to the temporary base arranged by Lan, accompanied by the little dragon girl who had been on guard in the sky all night without encountering any sudden incidents.
Walter and the other demons were nowhere to be seen, most likely still lurking near Miss Lan’s house. Edwina and others had already returned.
With so much happening in the city overnight and conflicts erupting everywhere, several girls who went out to gather intelligence had probably already noticed the unusual situation.
However, their information was limited, and Violet, who was in charge, wasn’t around, so naturally, they didn’t dare to do anything rash.
Because they were worried about the changing situation, they had also stayed up all night. When they ca back, they could only sit in the living room eagerly waiting. When they t with Violet, they all had dark circles under their eyes, looking sowhat tired.
After all, normal creatures need sleep, not everyone is like the gods or dragons who can stay up all night and still be lively.
Violet roughly explained last night’s events to them, took back the temporarily borrowed 【Cognitive Obstruction Mask】, and sent several zombie-like girls back to rest.
She didn’t mind herself, the excellent physical condition of the gods made the priestess feel no fatigue from staying up late. Since the situation in the Demon Suppression City had quickly settled due to nna’s unexpected appearance, Violet needed to carefully consider the next plan.
Oh, before that, she had to call back Walter and his group, and let them know that “Little Princess” had been found.
Speaking of which, were these demons a bit stubborn? They stayed there all night without moving a step?
Hmm, could sothing have happened?
Taking the little dragon girl with her, Violet went out. In a secluded alley near Lan’s house, she quickly found a group of demons sleeping on the ground, snoring and sprawled all over. Only a certain Mr. South Blade was still staring at Miss Lan’s door with bloodshot eyes, not even noticing the two girls who approached from the side.
Well, that was unexpected.
“I say... what are you guys doing?”
“Wow!”
The sudden appearance of the black-haired girl startled Walter. He instinctively reached for the big machete behind him, but stopped abruptly when he saw Violet and the little dragon girl’s faces.
Both sides silently stared at each other for more than three seconds. Mr. South Blade suddenly turned around and slapped his sleeping companions behind him. Then he stood up sowhat embarrassedly and faced the two girls with a strange expression.
“Uh, well, Lady Violet, we haven’t neglected our duties! We’ve just been allocating our energy reasonably... As for the human you ntioned, they haven’t co back yet, I can guarantee that!”
Of course, Lan has been catching thieves all night and is still raising the rebellious blade in the Lord’s Mansion. How could she have the ti to co here to monitor you guys...
“I didn’t an it like that... Forget it. Let’s go. Cancel the surveillance mission. Don’t stay here like zombies. Let’s go back first. I have important news to tell you.”
Leading the demons back to the temporary base like she was retrieving lost children, Violet sat on the sofa and roughly recounted last night’s events to Walter and the other demons, with so hesitation.
“What! The Little Princess has been found? Where is she!?”
Mr. South Blade slamd the table excitedly, but because the noise was too loud, it irritated a certain dragon lady, who gave him a displeased look. So, he imdiately returned to the sofa naturally and obediently, his movents smooth and continuous like flowing water.
“......”
Violet cleared her throat and looked at the hopeful faces of the demons in front of her, nodding.
“As I just said, the human princess of the Human United Kingdom, Little nna... Uh, the Princess, has personally led her troops and eradicated most of the poaching gangs lurking in the Demon Suppression City. In addition to the previously ntioned Novia Moon Shadow, she also rescued a large number of slaves who were abducted from the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains and various places around the world. Preliminary estimates suggest that there are at least tens of thousands.”
“I promised Tiyelu that I would help you find and bring back the ‘Little Princess.’ However, things have deviated from my original plan. Now that the royal family of the Human United Kingdom has intervened, I think it’s best to go through the proper channels to take Novia away. Of course, I will definitely assist in this matter. What do you think?”
“..........?”
The demons looked at each other, and eventually, Mr. South Blade, as the main person in charge, straightened up and put on a serious expression.
“Are you saying that the Human United Kingdom will voluntarily return the Little Princess to us? Could there be any conspiracy behind this, or will they demand extrely unreasonable conditions?”
What, turns out this guy still has a brain when it cos to serious matters.
This actually makes things easier.
After so thought, Violet decided to be straightforward.
“I’m not afraid to tell you, I actually know both the new Queen of the Human United Kingdom, Lilya lchior, and the current Princess nna lchior, who has co to handle this matter in Demon Suppression City. We’re on good terms, more like friends. As for other humans, let’s put that aside. I can vouch for the attitudes of these two.”
“They are not the kind of extremists. Their attitude towards outsiders, including those in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains, is friendly and cooperative. The reason why things have escalated to this point is mainly because of so internal factors in the country, stirring up trouble and exacerbating conflicts. Now that Princess nna is in charge, I believe such matters will soon be effectively resolved.”
“I see...”
Walter nodded thoughtfully.
“So your suggestion is that we openly hold talks between the two sides, organize the handover, and then the humans will officially return the little princess to us, is that right?”
“Yes, that’s roughly it. I can assure you that nna and her party won’t intentionally cause any trouble, but the specifics will likely require detailed negotiations on your part. Additionally, you’ll need to handle those monsters rescued from the black market and the poaching gang’s hideouts.”
“Haha, Lady Violet, there’s no need for you to be like this. This is only natural. We are most willing to welco back our missing kin. Since that’s the case, out of respect for you, having a talk seems more than appropriate.”
Walter stood up, and along with the other demons, their expressions relaxed considerably.
“I’ll send soone back to the mountains to explain this to the Ten Thousand Demon Alliance. I’m sure we’ll have a response soon. Thank you very much, Lady Violet!”
