Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 577: Prince Silver Wing (Request Subscription)
Facing Kane Samikina, who continuously requested credit for others, the Demon God nodded approvingly and said, "Why not try to secure something for your own clan?"
Upon hearing this, Kane's face showed distress, and with a choked voice, he lowered his head and replied, "My lord, my younger brother devoted himself entirely in this battle. To eradicate the rebel Lelajin, he unhesitatingly sacrificed his life using the life-for-life technique. Although he was saved by your beloved son afterward, the spell had already been cast, and forcibly terminating it caused his body to suffer backlash. Now, he can only rest in bed to recuperate peacefully."
As he spoke, Kane lifted his head, his eyes filled with tears as he sincerely said, "My lord, Fritz's aptitude is limited, and he fears he may not break through the final threshold in this life. After this battle, he fears his lifespan is running out."
Perhaps moved by Kane's deep brotherly affection, the young Demon God agent sighed softly, expressing, "I understand. Even without you saying it, I wouldn't treat him unfairly." As he spoke, he glanced up at the dome of the Demon God Hall, murmuring to himself, "If it were someone who lost the battle, perhaps they could be invited here. But with such a victory, it seems she has trained him well, and it won't be so easy to invite him."
As he spoke, the young man turned his head and said in a solemn tone, "Xila!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
At the mention of this name, all the demons present shuddered. Xila was one of the two children confirmed by the Demon God to be born nearly a thousand years ago, mastering the powers of despair, death, and slaughter. Though her strength only recently reached the upper rank, she possessed unparalleled power exceeding that of a typical clan leader. No one knew who their mother was, and many speculated that they didn't even have a mother. People preferred to believe these two were avatars created by the Demon God using his energy as a template.
At the Demon God's call, a silhouette enveloped in a black robe emerged from the shadows, walking gracefully to kneel beside the Demon God. Despite the large robe, it couldn't conceal her graceful figure, yet no one present dared to glance in her direction except for the Demon God himself.
"As agreed before, go as my envoy with my gift. Represent my will and meet with her to discuss the specifics of the collaboration between the two planes! She will make up for what you lack." The Demon God said as he took out a box from his bosom and handed it to Xila, saying, "Give this to Fritz, the child, to help him break through the final barrier." With this, the Demon God glanced at Kane, whose face was full of excitement, and said, "I can only help him this far. The rest will depend on his own talent and effort."
"Thank you for your grace, my lord!" Kane expressed his gratitude deeply.
The Demon God waved his hand and yawned, "That will be all for today. If there's anything urgent, leave it to Baal and Vashak to handle. I'm going to rest!"
"My lord!" Kane called out to the Demon God, who was about to leave, hesitating to speak.
The Demon God, who was stopped, turned back, staring at Kane with slight displeasure, "What reward do you want now?"
Kane trembled at the words and hastily shook his head, explaining, "I dare not have such presumptuous thoughts, my lord. I'm only worried about the special squad that was sent earlier..."
"What's wrong with that squad?" The Demon God turned around, his gaze ambiguously drifting towards the emerging nobles.
Kane knew the opportunity was fleeting, so he steeled his heart and spoke up, "I learned that the special squad dispatched some time ago had many members inserted by Leman from outside of their roster. Recently, Little Friedrich, who fled back to the Holy City and bore resentment for being executed due to cowardice, was also in this team. His distorted and inverted accusations misled the Holy City's judgment of the front-line situation. With him participating in this action, I'm afraid they might take personal revenge.
"Ah!" The Demon God closed his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and showed a look of helplessness and impatience on his face as he walked slowly towards the outside of the hall. As he walked, he said, "Relay my order. From today onwards, promote the child named Shitang to Prince Silver Wing, giving him authority to govern all demons outside the Holy City. Don't overthink, or engage in petty schemes; he grew up in another plane and will eventually return to that world. He won't compete with you for power!"
With these words, the Demon God's steps paused as he glanced back at Leman Friedrich, who had been kneeling on the ground since the meeting began, not daring to rise without permission, "I hope no one in our clan dares to harm a newly appointed prince, right?"
Leman dared not respond, only trembling like a leaf and lowering himself even further.
After the meeting concluded, outside the Demon God Hall, Kane, and the clan leader of the Bailang Family, naturally became the center of attention. After exchanging greetings with fellow friends, Kane stepped into his carriage, which slowly set off amid the driver's calls.
"Master, how did the meeting go this time?" the butler asked, handing a towel to Kane, which had been prepared earlier.
Accepting the towel, Kane chuckled lightly, "A great victory. Fritz did well; soon our Samikina clan will have another top-tier figure." Tossing the used towel back to the butler, Kane's thoughts turned stern as he said, "Maybe two. Bunian, go back and double the resources that Fritz requested in the letter, prepare them quickly, even at high cost, and send someone special to deliver them to him! Also, write a letter to my precious granddaughter."
"From today's attitude of the Demon God, it seems the Bailang Family should also take action. A strong individual backed by a powerful force who doesn't compete for power presents the best possible option for a grandson-in-law!" Kane's eyes suddenly brightened with a new idea as he lay back in the carriage, then he instructed, "Once Leman's foolish followers return, they'll certainly act. Send someone to monitor these families; if they dispatch a messenger, ensure that they are dealt with on the way, at any cost! As for the other noble families, I'll contact them myself to explain the stakes."
"Master, killing a messenger is a grave offense! This is unprecedented; if Friedrich and other clans report us to the Demon God, we'll be in trouble! Why must we resort to this?" Bunian said anxiously.
Kane straightened his posture, replying sternly, "The enmity has already been formed, leaving no room for reconciliation among these families! It's either them or us! If they don't receive word from the Holy City, they'll misjudge and someone will act recklessly. We just wait for them to make a mistake. Yes! They'll definitely make a mistake! Be discreet; our actions must not be discovered. Passing through the Disaster Legion's blockade is dangerous enough, and a few casualties won't be suspicious. Even if they suspect us afterward, the major mistake would have already been made, leaving them no chance to distinguish the truth!"
"Understood!" Bunian responded, then looked up to ask, "Master, what should we do about the matter of the Demon God Core mentioned by Lord Fritz?"
Upon hearing this question, Kane's previously joyful mood instantly evaporated. After a long silence, he responded gloomily, "Now isn't the right time. Our noble faction just achieved a major victory. If we pursue this matter now and find it true, it'll only give the emerging nobles a chance to recuperate and strike back, and..." he gazed out the carriage window, sighing, "I really don't want to believe my friends; that our noble lineage would give rise to traitors."
