————"You can try."
Ai Yi had said this phrase more than once.
Reminiscing about the past, when Shane's identity had just been revealed, and both Chafne and Camina were ready to trouble Shane, Ai Yi had warned them with these words.
The atmosphere was extrely dangerous back then, sothing Shane wasn't clear about, but all the demons present were acutely aware of.
Now, with Ai Yi saying these words once again, the atmosphere didn't turn sinister; instead, all the demons' eyes flickered as they looked at Shane.
They really wanted to ask Ai Yi, whether going to such lengths for a human was worth it.
Moreover, if Shane hadn't shown performance scarcely equal to them today, they might have already asked.
Including Chafne.
Although Chafne clearly knew that Ai Yi cared a lot about Shane, and Shane cared a lot about Ai Yi, the two of them had been together for only about half a year.
In half a year, had their feelings progressed to this stage?
As Chafne pondered, for so reason, the more she thought, the more displeased her mood beca.
But then, Chafne couldn't help but have another thought.
(At least, my progress with him must be faster than Little Aiyi's.)
This was undeniable.
Recalling those few nights ago, her face turned rosy as she and he had various intoxicating tis together, flipping dragons and phoenixes, and Chafne quickly reined in her chaotic thoughts.
Without the chaotic thoughts, Chafne felt sowhat stimulated.
(Sisters and brothers definitely wouldn't expect that I have beco this Hero's woman, would they?)
Chafne's expression was strange, with an indescribable excitent and guilt.
At this mont, Chafne even thought of confronting Ai Yi.
Perhaps saying sothing like — "Your husband is really useful."
"Ahem...!"
Chafne couldn't help but cough.
This cough from Chafne imdiately broke the slightly silent subtle tension on the scene.
"What's wrong?"
Sera looked at Chafne, gazing at her beautiful face, which still held so rosiness and inexplicable excitent, and spoke in surprise.
The other demons also looked at Chafne strangely.
"It's nothing." Chafne quickly adjusted her mood, pretending to be calm and laughed, "Just thought of a funny joke."
Hearing this, the demons looked at one another in surprise.
A funny joke?
What sort of joke would amuse this enchanting beauty of the Three Realms like this?
Even the wisest Sera couldn't fathom.
Because, no matter how she thought, it was impossible to imagine Chafne's current thoughts.
On the contrary, Shane looked at Chafne, puzzled and increasingly strange.
Although he didn't know what the Enchanting Demon Lord suddenly had in mind, his sharp sixth sense told Shane this woman must be thinking about sothing indecent.
This woman shouldn't be aiming to seek thrills by exposing the relationship between herself and here, right?
...It would be disastrous!
Shane's heart imdiately tightened.
Especially noticing Chafne's frequent surreptitious glances at himself, Shane grew increasingly tense.
Ai Yi noticed this point.
"Why are you sweating so much?"
Ai Yi frowned and questioned.
"Nothing... nothing..." Shane wiped the sweat from his forehead, laughed dryly, "Just feel a bit hot."
"Hot?" Ai Yi's frown deepened, even unable to help but glance toward Camina.
"What? Suspect of poisoning him?" Camina imdiately saw Ai Yi's thoughts but didn't deny them, rely smiled faintly.
Ai Yi said nothing more.
She believed, with Shane's Holy Sword power, he could at least preserve his life even under Camina's poison.
Moreover, she was well aware Camina's poison was terrifying, if she truly wanted to poison, sweating wouldn't be the end of it.
Camina's poison was aid at killing everything; if not deadly, it could only an she wasn't serious, rely wanting to play.
Even if this was extrely troubleso for others, it was the sa.
"Alright."
At this mont, Sera finally spoke.
"Now that everyone is here, let's sit down."
Certain matters also needed to be discussed thoroughly.
"Then, I'll take my leave."
Beside her, Hette Yada sensibly backed down.
This occasion, in fact, wasn't for her involvent.
To say the truth, this conference room was prepared for the Demon Clan's pinnacle six demons to gather, socialize, and discuss important matters; normally, no one would enter unless all Six Great Demons convened.
Thanks to this, the conference room would sotis be sealed for hundreds of years, rarely opened.
Hette Yada ca in only to guide them, and her own status wasn't negligible as one of the Demon Clan's three Limit Level strongn, able to enjoy so privilege.
But here, her privilege reached its limit.
Guiding them was fine, leading them inside was doable, but once the formal eting, negotiation began, it was no place for her to set foot.
Thus, Hette Yada obediently retreated and closed the conference room door.
But before she closed the door, Hette Yada discreetly glanced at Shane.
With just one glance, Hette Yada lowered her eyes and firmly closed the door.
As soon as the door closed, Shane imdiately noticed sothing unusual.
"Has a barrier been set up?"
Feeling the sudden surge of magic power and the barrier unfolding along the walls, Shane mused thoughtfully.
The demons, however, looked completely calm.
The eting room, which required the gathering of demons to open, surely hosted the most confidential topics in the entire Demon Realm.
Since it involved secrets, naturally, the protective asures had to be comprehensive.
The barrier set up here was currently the highest level barrier within the entire Omni Potanssen, far superior to those used to protect a country's capital, royal palace, and imperial palace.
The only thing comparable to this barrier was the strongest defense magic passed down through generations of the Elf Clan, capable of fending off attacks from Limit Level powerhouses — [Pure Flower Curtain].
So, once this barrier was activated, no Limit Level beings could spy on the secrets inside.
Unless a Transcend Level being arrived.
But of the Transcend Level beings, six were already gathered here, and the rest were with the Divine Race.
If those few from the Divine Race ca, it would be impossible for the demons present not to notice.
Therefore, the conversation taking place here was undoubtedly the most hidden and the safest.
Ai Yi approached Shane and spoke as she looked at him sitting in her seat.
"Why are you sitting in my seat?"
Ai Yi questioned out loud.
"What else could I do?" Shane replied irritably, "I can't just sit in soone else's seat, can I?"
Ai Yi thought about it and felt it made so sense.
"Then where should I sit?"
Ai Yi had to ask this question.
And Shane's way of solving the problem was even simpler.
"Here, sit here."
Shane picked up Ai Yi and let her sit on his lap, even grabbing Lilith who was coming over and placed her on his other leg.
This scene made the eyes of the demons present jump.
Good heavens, a Dragon Demon, an Evil God, two Transcend Level beings, actually placed directly onto this scoundrel's lap, left and right?
Your life has reached its peak, you might as well die now?
Many demons cursed silently in their hearts.
Especially when they saw Ai Yi sitting on Shane's lap, her expression struggling to maintain composure, wanting to explode but hesitating, finally sighing and giving up resisting, they were even more envious to death.
(He's never held like that...)
Sera was furious.
(...Looks like she doesn't even want to resist, so she's probably been held often?)
Camina was also displeased.
"Wow!"
Milu expressed her amazent quite frankly.
Only Chafne and Lide, the thoughts of the two were different from the rest of the demons.
(This... is considered quite gentle, isn't it?)
Lide couldn't help but recall that night in the Elf Country when Ai Yi was held and kissed by a certain hero, even getting hands-on, thinking there was nothing to be surprised about.
(Sitting on the lap... I guess I've never tried that...)
Chafne was not in much of a pleasant mood either.
The demons all had their own thoughts, making the air fall silent for a long while.
Finally, Sera sighed.
"Judging by your expressions, I don't even need to ask if you agree to form an engagent."
Sera spoke faintly.
Shane and Ai Yi exchanged a glance, then Ai Yi quickly averted her gaze.
Shane found it sowhat amusing.
"I an, you have the guts to let your sister announce to the world about our engagent, but you can't even look at ?"
Shane spoke teasingly to Ai Yi.
Ai Yi's eyes were sowhat evasive, and she felt helpless in her heart.
Actually, she had not figured out how to face Shane either.
Even though there had been so breakthroughs in their relationship before returning to the Demon Realm, and she knew her feelings towards Shane, but just as Shane thought, they had just barely scratched the surface, not even fully defined, and suddenly announcing an engagent, which she had tacitly accepted by default... how was she supposed to face others now...!?
In fact, Ai Yi did regret it afterward, wondering why she accepted it by default.
Aside from an engagent, there surely were other solutions to the problem, right?
Really didn't know what she was thinking at the ti...
Thinking of this, Ai Yi could only say: "You can disagree."
Ai Yi had to be stubborn.
But she had forgotten, besides being the most flirtatious, Shane was also the best at courting death.
"Really?"
Shane blurted this out without thinking.
Ai Yi fell silent, and even stopped evading, staring straight at Shane.
That gaze, no matter how you looked at it, seed full of murderous intent.
Shane was certain, as long as he dared to say he disagreed, this Dragon Demon who couldn't step down would probably beat the crap out of him.
Thus, Shane followed his heart.
"Alright, I agree."
