Youyou was fanning the flames on the side.
"Lord Demon King, your players seem to be even less human than you. If you don't step up your efforts, they might surpass you," she teased.
Luo Yan guessed that this guy was probably trying to coax him into taking the initiative to conquer human towns again.
However, he was ultimately still too young, unaware of the principle that winning hearts is more important than conquering cities.
Without expending a single soldier, Silver Pine Town had already become his, and the legend of the Flame King had unknowingly become popular in the taverns frequented by adventurers.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not planning to compete with them," he responded carelessly.
Players have their tasks, and the Demon King has his duties. The better they perform, the more it proves that he was doing the right thing.
Luo Yan casually dismissed Youyou and refocused his attention on the papers spread out on the pine desk, picking up the steel pen beside him to continue pondering over his words.
This document was not a casual note to a vassal but a "Work Progress Report" to be sent back to Demon City.
As a Demon King, while receiving support from Hell, he was obligated to regularly report his work progress to Demon City.
Succinctly put, he needed to report on how many villages he had burned, how many people he had killed, how much loot he had seized, and how many adventurers he had captured.
If there were none, reporting on production and proselytizing was also acceptable; after all, the Ministry of Internal Affairs' Demon King Management Department also understood that it wasn't easy to undertake significant actions in the heartland of humanity.
Since the Great Graveyard was an exclave, it was almost impossible for Demon City to send someone to supervise his work, so theoretically, Luo Yan could write the report however he wished, as long as it made sense in the end; if it didn't, he could always blame the human adventurers for working too hard.
After about half an hour, Luo Yan first complained about the enormous mess left by Reggie Dragon, even remarking that upon his arrival, he had landed in a human town and that those rebels were simply inhumane... or rather, undemonic!
He then lamented about the Chosen One stationed in Campbell Duchy by Saint Sis being too powerful, a peak purple crystal, a near Grandmaster, even showing signs of a Demigod's stature, not to be underestimated... He omitted the fact that this person had only recently broken through to purple crystal and was also a consumptive.
In this way, Hell would surely be more sympathetic to his difficulties.
Considering the strength of Campbell's Grand Duke, his report would not embarrass the late Reggie Dragon too much, thus not offending the Dragon family.
"...Although the Underground Maze beneath Thunder City poses numerous challenges, I, with my devout and loyal heart towards the Demon God, faced the difficulties head-on, brave against the current... Fortunately, I did not disappoint the trust of the citizens of the Great Graveyard, first eliminating the power of the hundred thousand Earth Dragons who colluded with the overseas Merfolk to betray the maze, and subsequently recapturing the originally fragmented first and second levels of the maze territories!"
"Currently, the progress in the Great Graveyard is going smoothly, aside from severe resource shortages and a lack of manpower; there are no more serious issues at the moment."
"Additionally, while attempting to reclaim the third layer of the maze, we encountered some unforeseen circumstances, where the heretics there actually worshipped the evil Isaacism, causing us quite some trouble. To counter the threat of the Isaacism followers, I require a magic engineer from the Academic Magic Engineers, well-versed in the history of the Isaac Dynasty, rune magic, and Isaac Magic, and the stronger, the better."
"Furthermore, please do not send an Enchanting Demon, a knowledgeable goblin would be preferable."
