Chapter 1123: Mantis Stalking Cicada

"Okay, it looks like we can talk now."

Yuei Vu stood in front of Vampire Fraulein, who knelt on the ground with a pale face, her flat chest heaving violently due to panting.

She lowered her head, her silver hair drooping, and looked like a submissive and helpless girl. For a moment, Yuei Vu actually felt himself like an unforgivable villain.

The screwballs behind him obviously also felt this sense of déjà vu. A group of people chattered and discussed, thinking that this plot and this development were a bit similar to some not-so-serious animations in Japan – the kingdom was captured, and the noble princess sacrificed herself for the safety of the people…

The screwballs were this kind of creature. Not only did they read a lot of messy things, but they also liked to fantasize.

"I know you may not believe it now… but we really have no ill will towards your country." Yuei Vu said helplessly, "We are really just passing by."

Vampire Fraulein raised her head, with a ruby-like light in her eyes.

"You…want to go to Supreme King's Castle?"

"Yes." Yuei Vu nodded, "We just want to borrow your portal."

Fraulein was silent for a moment, then said: "I can't allow unauthorized people to pass through that door. That is my duty – and our kingdom's duty."

"You have done your best to fulfill your duties." Yuei Vu said, "So now tell me, where is the door?"

Fraulein did not answer. Her beautiful eyes dimmed a little, and she looked absentmindedly at the dark sky outside the castle.

"In fact, I'm a little tired of all this." She said softly, "Endless battles, people who keep dying… I just want it all to stop."

"So that's why you want Supreme King to come back, right?" Yuei Vu asked.

"Yes." Fraulein lowered her head gently, "Because this is… the only way to stop the war. Only that lord can make everyone willingly surrender, all dimensions will obey orders, and all worlds will restore peace.

I just… just don't want to continue fighting…"

Yuei Vu looked at Fraulein whose head was gradually lowering, and couldn't help but smile.

"Little Miss, you seem to have misunderstood something."

"Eh?" Fraulein raised her head.

"We never said that we went to Supreme King's Castle to overthrow that person." Yuei Vu smiled, "We just went to reason with him.

We all hope that the Supreme King can stay in his position. I just hope that he can become better than he is now… and probably stronger than he is now.

But no matter what, your wish will come true. The twelve dimensions will maintain unity under the absolute power of the Supreme King. There will be no more wars, and no one will need to die in the fight for land."

Fraulein was full of suspicion, and her pale face clearly said–

— I don't read much, don't lie to me, is it really that simple?

Do you want to reason with the Supreme King? Do you think he looks like a reasonable person?

But just when Vampire Fraulein was extremely suspicious of this, a figure – or to be more precise, a shadow that was not a person at all – appeared beside Yuei Vu.

"Yubel?" Fraulein showed a surprised expression, "Are you with them?"

"The situation is a little complicated." Yubel crossed her arms, "I have always had a good impression of you among my past colleagues, Little Miss.

You should know that you can trust me in this regard.

Do you really think that I will betray the lord?"

Vampire Fraulein: "…"

Indeed. Although she did not fully understand the story of the Supreme King and Yubel, she also knew that there was an extraordinary past between them.

Yubel's loyalty and the Supreme King's respect for her have been witnessed by everyone for a long time.

In the entire twelve dimensions, if there was anyone who was least likely to betray the Supreme King, that person must be Yubel.

Vampire Fraulein was silent for a moment and seemed to be entangled.

After a moment, she asked again: "You…really not rebelling against the Supreme King's reign?"

"Of course." Yubel smiled, "You know I will always be loyal to that person, but the situation is a little special now.

You know, the Supreme King now is not exactly the same as he was in the past. I am just trying to make the person on the throne better with the help of these people."

"…"

Seeing that Vampire Fraulein seemed to be still undecided, Yuei Vu continued: "I just want to remind you one thing. Although your loyalty to the king is admirable, you don't actually have many choices.

You lost to me, remember?

One victory, one price. You haven't paid your price yet, right?"

Vampire Fraulein sighed softly.

She gently raised her small hand as white as a scallion and pointed to a certain direction behind the city wall.

"Go out from here and follow the main road." She said, "Go all the way to the center of the city, and the door you are looking for is there."

After a pause, she added: "But you should know that even if you go through there, you will not go directly to Supreme King's Castle.

Our dimension is not the last line of defense. To reach Supreme King's Castle, you still have to go through another dimension, which is the closest and last line of defense to Supreme King's Castle."

"Dark World." Yubel nodded, "Thank you for reminding me, but I didn't forget it."

"Dark World?" Yuei Vu raised his eyebrows.

"That's right." Yubel said, "Dark World is the dimension closest to Supreme King's Castle, where all the fallen creatures of Dark World rule.

It is a world shrouded in darkness all year round, and demons enslave and rule the humans living in that plane, a dimension where despair is rampant and there is no dawn forever."

"But that dimension also has the last door to Supreme King's Castle."

Vampire Fraulein stood up shakily, took a deep breath, and showed a serious expression.

"I'm going with you." She said.

Yubel was a little surprised: "What about your kingdom…?"

"I let you through this door, so I must confirm with my own eyes whether what you said is true."

Fraulein paused and looked out the window again, looking at the kingdom where she had devoted everything but was betrayed.

"Besides, I'm tired." She said softly, "If it's true as you said, there will be no more wars from now on, then it's almost time for me to leave this position.

It's time to entrust everything to others."

Then she smiled softly and looked at Yuei Vu half-jokingly.

"And you said, I still owe you a price." She smiled and said, "If I don't stay with you, I can't pay it, right?"

"Okay." Yuei Vu shrugged, "But you have to be prepared, it won't be as easy as a picnic."

……

Yuei Vu and his group left the castle and walked towards the portal to the next dimension in the city center. A black shadow stood in the shadow not far away, squinting his eyes and staring in that direction.

He walked slowly forward, ready to catch up.

But a lazy voice sounded behind him: "You are really haunting."

The black shadow paused and looked at the man who appeared behind him without anyone noticing and was leaning against the wall, and frowned.

"That should be my words… Duel King."
