The Reborn Demon King Girl

Chapter 52: Feelings of Betrayal


Lisidorwei obtained a "Gargoyle's Furnace" from Mohe.

Just like Mohe said, as long as the corresponding materials are placed into the furnace according to the proportions, and Lisidorwei infuses magic power into it, gargoyles can be produced. To Mohe, this isn't a particularly difficult technique, as gargoyles don't hold much technical significance for the Demon King.

However, it's important to note that humans haven't conquered the challenges of gargoyle creation... In fact, many people in the world still believe gargoyles are a naturally born race, most of which were worn down during the wars of the past. Therefore, the gargoyles that still circulate in the world have become rare, and people know these creatures possess "anti-magic" effects, used in certain special locations.

She then found Rose, Doro, and Ah Xion.

Purely from the scene, it seemed like Lisidorwei was convening a meeting to betray the Demon King Mohe.

As for what Mohe was doing?

After raising her artificial sun, she went as usual to the stream to fish. Although everyone knew Mohe usually condenses her golden blood while fishing, sometimes people really doubt whether she is properly recovering her strength.

"I have already received word from my 'followers' that Charlette has rallied the Wise Person, Source of Miracles, Song of the End, allied with the Mage Union, Alchemist Association, and Sorcerer Alliance, plus the Holy Legion of the White Church, and the direct knightly order of the Human Central Empire, to launch an attack against the resurrected Demon King and the old Hero."

She spoke out the information she was aware of.

This news made everyone present frown. Especially Doro, whose expression was particularly complex: "Though their alliance wasn't outside my expectations, such a large-scale campaign— I sincerely believe I haven't done anything that wronged them."

Of course, everyone present was somewhat aware of the events of yesteryears. For instance, Rose was one of them, even though she didn't know much about the details, she was more used as a tool by others, but she understood that those people might have felt similar to how she did at the time.

Ah Xion puzzled: "Even though Gedora had previously shown the power to defeat Charlette, logically speaking, it should just mean increasing by two or three masters at the Sacred Name level, so why are they rallying such a massive army, forming alliances among various forces? Do they insist on killing Gedora?"

As she spoke, her gaze rested on Rose, for she hadn't deeply participated in the past events, so she hoped Rose could provide a reasonable explanation.

Feeling the gaze of Ah Xion upon her, Rose instinctively felt uneasy, but she was helpless— after all, she truly had a part in those past events, although examining it now was painful, the situation at hand wasn't disappearing, so she could only suppress her emotions: "I can only express my thoughts, they may not be their actual intentions."

"Mm."

"The reason I acted was because of admiration... twistedness..." Rose dared not meet Doro's gaze, "You all should know how it is... Before I took action, Charlette spoke to me individually. The general idea is, it's the collective will of the White Church."

This was something unknown before, Doro was slightly curious about past events, previously he didn't dare face Charlette, but in their last encounter, he realized it was just that. There was nothing he couldn't face; from the beginning to end, he hadn't done anything wrong.

Charlette should be the one feeling ashamed.

"What did she say?"

"The Hero's legitimacy is too high, the White Church is concerned that as your influence increases, you will have a significant impact on the White Church." Rose recalled the conversation from before, "In fact, many of your actions at the time already directly conflicted with the Church, you noticed numerous unreasonable aspects within the White Church, right?"

Doro was silent for a while: "So, between the White Church and me, Charlette chose the White Church."

"From the outcome, that's how it is."

Rose didn't intend to speak for Charlette, nor did she intend to speculate recklessly or speak ill of her, because that would make her seem like a bad person— she didn't wish to leave a poor impression on Doro anymore: "I've only had conversations with Charlette, I don't know about the others, but I think, sentiment-wise, it's likely similar."

Doro took a bottle of wine from his waist, uncapped it, and took a gulp: "Honestly, it was somewhat anticipated, although I made some psychological preparations, truly hearing it felt somewhat absurd. However, thinking about it reasonably, she and I were partners, but the White Church was where she received everything, it's the place she grew up in from childhood, if one really has to say what's more important, of course, it should and can only be the White Church."

"Doro."

Doro heard Lisidorwei's shout, his gaze fell on this vampire, but then again, the Demon King created Lisidorwei, in a sense like a parent to Lisidorwei, and the Demon Race was Lisidorwei's essence, she was originally his enemy, yet she abandoned the Demon Race and parents for him, the Demon Race calling her a renegade was understandable... but to Doro, this was an unrepayable kindness.

It was profound and significant loyalty.

In this regard, comparing...

However, Charlette was inherently different from Lisidorwei, she bore the name of "Saintess," and Doro could only say he understood why Charlette acted as she did, but he couldn't accept such things happening to him, because he hadn't done anything wrong; he had no reason to be persecuted.

"Doesn't Mohe plan to do anything?"

"She gave me this."

Lisidorwei produced the Gargoyle's Furnace.

This furnace, at first glance, was merely a person's height.

"This object can produce gargoyles— we can use gargoyles to form an army to fight against the Mage Legion."

Everyone present was astonished upon seeing it.

"Was the Demon King the one who created gargoyles?"

Lisidorwei nodded: "However, the Demon King isn't very fond of this species. She didn't invest much energy into this race, unlike us vampires."

Doro really hadn't anticipated this issue. It's important to know that during the Demon King's era, gargoyles were the source of nightmares for many novice mages.

"It looks like Mohe is prepared, so what we should do is produce this gargoyle army?"

Lisidorwei's gaze slightly evaded, but she hid it well: "Yes, that's right, we need to quickly gather the necessary materials."
