After returning to the city lord's house, Alea rinsed the wild fruits she brought back with water and ate them by herself with a click.

She is used to eating sour, or rather she eats everything, very non-fussy, definitely belongs to the type of easy-fed.

"If you eat too much, you might get a stomachache?"

I asked.

Alea replied with a straight face:

"It's a silver coin."

More like a little miser than me.

As usual, Pierce did follow with a large group of fat men in rough clothes, arching his hand towards me humbly, and simply said that he couldn't get a good meal tonight, and invited me to eat at a restaurant in town, as a kind of reception. Tomorrow, two cooks will be arranged to the city lord's residence, after which we will be responsible for our own meals.

I naturally do not care about it, anyway, Alea will also cook, I am not very picky about food.

But I'm a little upset about it.

The restaurant in the city is naturally not much better, the wine is sour, the dishes have little flavor, and very little meat. I took a few chopsticks to fill my stomach even if it is done, Alea is not wasted to eat. I was amused by the fact that the fat brothers in front of me ate very little and excused themselves by saying they were full, obviously having eaten a good meal before coming here.

I also did not say much on the matter, or that, I want to see what they really want to do.

After eating, Pierce said to me with a smile on his face:

"Lord Lieder, good news, great news ah. Our city is about to be peaceful, and the demons will not come back in the future!"

It's OK, you've successfully piqued my interest.

I raised an eyebrow and asked:

"How come? Hasn't this always been the perfect place for them to rob?"

Pierce licked his lips and said:

"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

What is there to misunderstand about this?

It's almost like giving someone a cuckold and saying something like "Brother don't misunderstand, it's sister-in-law's initiative". The evidence is overwhelming and you still say what misunderstanding, is it that the demons who came here are fake? Or is it actually the wrong one is our west city?

You do not say, Pierce really said so.

He said:

"I found out clearly ...... that the reason why the devils kept invading before was because there was a devil traitor hiding within our West City."

"A traitor of the devil race?"

I had a black question mark on my face and had trouble understanding what he was talking about.

Pierce took a sip of water and said in a serious manner:

"Yes, Lord Lieder. Many years ago, the demon army had killed the West City, when many women were fortunate ...... not right, were forced to have sex with the demon army, and one of them happened to be pregnant, but hid it from the public and secretly gave birth to a daughter. Her daughter as half of the devil race, but repeatedly sided with the human side of the massacre of their fellow countrymen, simply evil, its crime is unforgivable! The leader of the devil army was greatly outraged, which is why he kept sending troops to harass the West City ...... We are very angry after knowing this matter, and have brought that woman to justice and sent her back to the devil race, from then on, the devil race will not come to harass us again!"

I listened really dumbfounded.

Probably saw my shocked look, Pierce lowered his voice and said:

"And that woman is not a good thing, she has no feelings for humans at all. Think about it, if she had left West City early, the demons would not have plagued the place to such an extent. She is trying to force herself to be tied to West City, trying to bring the innocent people of this city to die with her! What's the point of keeping such a person? The best way to get rid of her is to throw her back to the demons for the peace of the city. We will make our own arrangements to return you to a peaceful West City."

I slowly knocked on the table.

After a long time, I looked at him.

"I want this West City to be peaceful, and I want me to be able to be a hands-off boss. Everything else, I can ignore."

Pierce hung his head and said respectfully:

"I promise. I can take my own head to guarantee it."

I nodded and called out:

"Alea."

Alea stood up.

I said slowly:

"Go back."

Alea looked at me with some surprise, but followed me.

Walking a long way away, I heard Pierce whisper to the person next to him:

"No wonder he was driven out by Lord Yunyang like a dog, just this IQ is none."

The person next to me laughed and said:

"The trap has been made, he is just a little trutle in an urn, what else can he puff out of the water."

They probably didn't know I could hear them. Maybe they knew, but thought it didn't matter.

I smiled, looked at Alea casting a questioning glance, and shook my head.

Alea put away her sword.
