"Report, Lord Demon King."

"Speak."

"Myers City is lost."

"What?"

The Demon King turned her chair and stared at the messenger with a grave expression. To her surprise, one of the five generals, Nigel, who was defending the city of Myers, had lost.

The messenger reported all the information up with great fear.

"The enemy general is ...the brave."

Brave...the Demon King frowned after hearing this word.

"Got it, go down."

"Yes."

After the messenger left, the Demon King looked to Heath Relia who was sitting next to her.

"What did the humans take the city of Myers?"

The Demon King put her elbows on the conference table and propped her face up in thought.

Myers City was in the far northeast of the Magic Kingdom's imperial capital, and had no strategic significance at all.

"Are they planning to encroach on our imperial capital step by step from that far away?"

Heath Relia was also not sure what the human's intentions were.

"Impossible, that would take a lot of time. Now that they know that Ilotia is not available for battle, they should move their troops to attack from cities like Toyas and Bryce instead of stalling in the northeast until Ilotia is available for battle."

The Demon King shook her head, confused as to what humans were thinking.

----------

Myers City is originally the former Demon Lord's castle, with the exclusive conference room in it.

The brave knocked on the brown wooden table and pondered. Myers City was easily captured, but the brave was not much happy.

Myers is a city without any strategic significance. Although the brave captured the city, it was useless. What’s worse, they even lost thousands of human soldiers for it. The only benefit was that this could give a little morale to human army.

The brave man also did not intend to attack from the northeast of the Demon Kingdom to the far southwest of it. He just waited for the Demon King. He hoped that the Demon King can bring troops to the battlefield personally, to guard the dignity of the demons. At that time the brave man can directly capture or kill the Demon King so that there is no need to attack the imperial capital of the devil race.

So the brave led the troops to attack from the south once again. The goal is to take Wallis City.

----------

"Report, Lord Demon King."

"Speak."

"Wallis City was attacked by humans. General Nigel abandoned Wallis City, and the enemy general is still the brave."

The Demon King nodded.

"Go down."

"Yes."

The messenger retreated.

In the same place, in the same position, the Demon King turned to look at Heath Relia suspiciously.

"The humans aren't really going to do that, are they?"

Heath Relia shook her head.

"Call Solz over, Nigel is having some trouble dealing with the brave."

The Demon King thought for a while, and finally did not come up with any good countermeasures. So she had to agree with Heath Relia's proposal.

"You go and command."

After entrusting this matter to Heath Relia, the Demon King stood up. She still had to go to the underground dungeon today to properly train Ilotia.

...

In the next half month, the Demon King was busy training Ilotia, while the brave took down many insignificant cities in the north of the Demon Kingdom.

In the conference room of Zdis City.

"Report, Lord Demon King."

"Speak."

"Ars City was attacked by humans the night before last."

Finally, it wasn't the news of losing the city. Heath Relia breathed a sigh of relief.

But Demon Lord Furtoril was a little unsettled.

"What is the status of the battle?"

"General Nigel and General Solz are doing their best to defend. It is supposed to be no problem in holding the Ars City."

"Alright, go down."

"Yes."

The messenger could hear the displeasure in the Demon King's tone, so he didn't dare to raise his head and withdrew from the meeting room.

"Is it just supposed to be?"

The Demon King was very dissatisfied with the uncertain words that came out of the messenger's mouth. She was eager to go on the field and teach humans a lesson herself, though the cities of the Demon Kingdom captured by the humans were still strategically insignificant. But she has to train Ilotia. Now she can not have any time to go to the battlefield and lead troops to fight.

If you want to ask why the Demon King wants to train Ilotia herself, of course she wants to make Ilotia recognize the master. The Demon King wants to let Ilotia recognize her as the master. As long as Ilotia sees the Demon King, she thinks she is the Demon King's slave.

Heath Relia can read the Demon King’s mind. No matter who is the King, it is a great shame for him to see his own cities fall into the hands of the enemy.

So Heath Relia stood up and volunteered to attend the war. If it continues, the Demon King may have to leave Ilotia alone and go to war with the army.

"Furtoril, I'll bring reinforcements to support Nigel and Solz."

The Demon King looked up at Heath Relia and slowly nodded her head.

It was really a bit lonely if no one talked to her after Heath Relia left. But the Demon King couldn't just let the humans run wild over the demon race.

----------

In the human tent, the brave sat at the end of the long conference table, flanked by the various officers in the army.

"According to the news, Heath Relia is bringing troops to support Ars City, should we continue the siege war?"

One of the officers spoke, and the brave put his hands on his chin and pondered.

Heath Relia, is not so easy to deal with. But the brave is confident that he can also take the city of Ars.

As the Demon King thought, the city of Ars has not much insignificant importance.

The brave was only humiliating the Demon race. Now he was triggering the Demon King's anger, and seducing the Demon King to lead her troops into battle, which was his aim. In fact, he did not intend to march south from the north to take the entire Demon kingdom.

Now Heath Relia has brought her troops to support Ars City. Instead of trading a huge loss for an insignificant city, the brave will withdraw his troops to find the next insignificant city that can be easily captured. Then he will continue to humiliate the Demons until she comes out to conquer the war.

Finally the brave looked into the distance with confidence.

"Retreat!"
