Why must the devil be Defeated?-Chapter 248 - 247 Go play with a banana

Chapter 248: 247 ‘Go play with a banana.
In that moment, Shane saw the same emotion in the eyes of several people from the Galuo Li Family on the opposite side.
It was surprise, astonishment, followed by caution.
Yes, caution.
With the hint of the unusual he had sensed, Shane’s smile took on a playful note.
On the other hand, Ai Yi, while yawning and seemingly bored, followed by Shane’s side. Whether she used some magic or not, she somehow didn’t draw anyone’s attention around them.
Otherwise, given the girl’s level of cuteness, it’s impossible that the people around hadn’t noticed her.
Under such circumstances, Captain Farbion’s complexion darkened, and after a moment of silence, he approached Shane.
“I had not expected that it would be you who came. I didn’t notice you, please forgive me.”
Farbion bowed to Shane.
He did not dare underestimate Shane.
During the last audience, Farbion was present and personally experienced the aura that overwhelmed the crowd. He knew this young man had exceptional strength and was highly valued by the Royal Family.
Therefore, Farbion took to heart, remained vigilant, and did not dare to be careless.
But it was Reiseg, the Deputy Commander by Farbion’s side, who spoke with a hint of sarcasm.
“What is the darling of the Princess doing in such a remote place? Surely you haven’t come to pick Di Di Flowers, have you?”
The Di Di Flower mentioned by the somewhat defiant Deputy Commander was a very beautiful magic flower that emitted a charming fragrance.
This flower could be used in the creation of magic potions for healing wounds and several other special magic potions. Although its value was decent, its beauty and fragrance were particularly popular with women, making it highly sought after by daughters of nobility, turning it into an expensive gift often given to women to win their favor.
When Reiseg said Shane had come to pick Di Di Flowers, he was naturally insinuating Shane was a man who sought the Princess’s favor to climb the social ladder.
Shane’s eyebrows raised slightly, and with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, he retorted.
“As for Di Di Flowers, I hadn’t hoped to find any, but if I do come across a Shishi Flower, I’ll be sure to bring one back for this honorable knight.”
Upon hearing this, Reiseg’s face stiffened.
The so-called Shishi Flower was another type of magic flower which was the complete opposite of the Di Di Flower. Not only was it extremely ugly, it also emitted a foul stench, sometimes even poisonous, capable of inducing slight mental hallucinations in those who smelled it, causing them to see visions of being tortured.
Thanks to these properties, this flower was often used to target those found disagreeable, and in the hands of some nobles, it certainly had its uses.
Shane’s claim of wanting to gift Reiseg a flower was clearly a way of saying he found Reiseg disagreeable.
“You…!”
Reiseg, obviously a hot-headed young master, bristled at Shane’s barb and immediately wanted to step forward.
“Don’t be rash!”
Kiefer Guss quickly stopped Reiseg.
“What are you trying to do?”
Carter gave Reiseg a sharp look.
Only Lana watched the unfolding scene, wondering about something.
Then Farbion said,
“May I ask why you have come here?”
Farbion asked solemnly.
“Captain Farbion must have heard the subordinate’s report, right?” Shane smiled faintly, casually speaking: “I was entrusted by the Princess to investigate the canyon. I wonder if the captain could let me pass?”
“This…” Farbion’s expression became troubled, even somewhat uglier.
Not just Farbion; the four Deputies all looked stern, revealing a bit of their inner thoughts.
The outspoken Reiseg even raised his voice.
“What’s there to investigate?” Reiseg glared at Shane as if looking at an enemy and said loudly: “The area has been sealed off, no one will enter, and no one will be in danger, so what’s the need to investigate?”
Upon hearing this, Shane couldn’t help but laugh.
“That’s quite an interesting statement,” Shane said leisurely. “Not to mention that such anomalies here naturally warrant investigation by the kingdom, let’s talk about the canyon being a treasure trove for adventurers. Many businesses in the Royal Capital rely on materials from the demons and nature produced here for their creation. If this place remains sealed without addressing the anomalies, do you intend to let all sorts of products in the capital face issues due to a lack of raw materials?”
“By then, the celebrated business and trade networks of the Royal Capital are bound to suffer significant effects, no?”
“To claim that such a situation requires no investigation, young sir, do you even have a brain?”
Shane’s blunt remarks caused Reiseg’s face to twitch slightly, and anger emerged on his face once more.
Had it not been for Kiefer Guss and Carter constantly stopping him, he surely would have charged forward already, wouldn’t he?
Such a person is the Deputy Commander of the Kingdom Knights?
Is the kingdom really okay?
Shane felt a sneer rising within him.
It was then that Captain Farbion, frowning and deep in thought for a while, said,
“Since it is the Princess’s request, we, as Kingdom Knights, naturally cannot refuse to cooperate,” Captain Farbion said with a grave tone. “However, the demons inside Artlu Canyon have become very aggressive and dangerous. It’s hardly proper for you to investigate alone.”

This person was actually trying to obstruct him.
“Oh?” Shane said oddly. “Are you prepared to disregard the Princess’s wishes, Captain?”
“This is a misunderstanding,” Farbion replied indifferently. “I’m only concerned for your safety.”
“Yes,” Kiefer Guss added, his eyes shifting as he interjected from the side, “Those demons have really become too dangerous. I think it’s better for you not to go in.”
“I agree,” Carter chimed in, nodding in agreement from the side.
To this, Shane had but one thing to say.
“Is it the demons that are dangerous, or the Old Demon Clan Faction?”
This simple retort left Farbion and the others momentarily speechless.
But the statement was blunt and forceful.
No matter how dangerous the demons in Artlu Canyon might be, could they be more dangerous than the Old Demon Clan Faction?
They had simply become more aggressive, not more terrifying.
“Demons are the enemies of the Human Race, and they attack on sight. Whether they’re aggressive or not, dangerous or not, what difference does it make?”
Shane’s calm words left Farbion and the others without a response.
Seeing this, Reiseg couldn’t help himself again.
“I’m telling you…”
Before he could finish his sentence, this time Shane quickly threw a retort back at him.
“Shut up!” Shane snapped at Reiseg, saying, “When adults are speaking, can the brainless monkey go play with bananas on the side?”
The unabashedly coarse words made everyone widen their eyes and stunned Reiseg into silence.
Immediately after, Reiseg’s anger erupted.
“Clang!”
With the sound of metal, Reiseg drew his sword from his waist.
But at the same moment, a foot had already kicked out, landing heavily on Reiseg’s body.
“Thump!”
The dull sound of impact rang out.
“Ah!”
Reiseg screamed miserably as he was sent flying.
Shane had just kicked this fool away.
