Chapter 370: Chapter 371, meeting
For the sake of his daughter’s safety, General Lockmond took the initiative to join the envoy group that visited the demon world.
After stepping into the demon world, his mood had always been very perturbed.
The Demon World was a completely unfamiliar world to the humans. Even the greatest adventurers rarely left their footprints on this land.
Therefore, most of the impression humans had of the demon world came from the various religious scriptures of the country of the sacred religion.
In the Scriptures, it was stated that the sky of the demon world was as scarlet as fresh blood. The ground was covered in lava, and lava constantly spewed out from the cracks in the ground. The air was filled with a lethal poison
Although reason told General Lockmond that the things written in the religious scriptures were all nonsense, before coming to the demon world, General Lockmond had made sufficient preparations.
He had his daughter wear a family heirloom, a ‘slightly cold star’that could withstand high temperatures after wearing it. At the same time, he had specially brought along a spellcaster who was proficient in the god of flowing water and healing.
However, after truly stepping into the demon world, General Rockmon realized that his preparations were unnecessary.
The Demon World and the human world looked no different. If he had not raised his head and seen the five-colored nebula and two huge planets interweaving in the sky, General Rockmon would not have believed that this was another world.
General Lockmon recognized the purple and silver planets. These two planets were the ‘moons’of the human world.
But General Lockmon did not expect these two moons to be so… big in the demon world.
He had not learned astrology, but the five-colored nebula in the sky looked much more beautiful than the night sky of the human world.
“Please come this way.”
Baron Charlotte’s voice interrupted General Rockmon’s thoughts.
The emissary delegation had now arrived at the gate of the royal city of the demon world. General Rockmon’s gaze was always fixed on the sin demon leading the way.
Although the illusion of the Demon World’s environment was wrong, General Rockmon definitely did not underestimate the danger of these demons.
The sin demon had already shown an offensive posture. If it was not for the subordinates of the third prince, Jose, who came out to pacify it, the sin demon would very likely attack its own daughter.
When General Rockmon recalled that he would have to negotiate with this sin demon next, he started to have a headache again.
What he was truly worried about was whether the demon world would really welcome humans like them?
The alliance between Faroese and the demon world had all been made by the third prince. However, General Rockmon understood that the forces of a country were extremely complicated, and each force’s position was different.
With this question in mind, he walked on the streets of the demon world.
The other demons living in the imperial city noticed the appearance of the envoy group. From the windows of the houses on the surrounding streets, General Rockmon could basically confirm that the demon world was a country where many races lived together.
Although the streets were a little deserted, from the architecture, the imperial city was not much poorer than the capital of Faroese. At the very least, the ground was covered with unknown stones and carriages could easily pass through.
There were even quite a number of muddy roads in the capital of Faroese.
The city used to be prosperous, but now it was desolate.
General Rockmon followed Baron Charlot to the ‘embassy’with unease. This embassy was the only building in the entire imperial city that had a ‘human style’.
When he followed Baron Charlot into the hall of the embassy, their eyes were instantly attracted by a figure standing on the second floor of the hall.
“Welcome, emissary group from Faroese. My name is Cecily Arnold, the second Princess of the Chaos Demon Royal Family.”
Cecily walked down the stairs slowly. Today, Cecily was wearing the traditional clothes of a watcher.
However, the male emissaries from Faroese below were all stunned when they saw Cecily.
General Rockmon felt that his daughter was in the Black Swan Troupe, so his aesthetic judgment was completely stiff.
The Black Swan troupe gathered Farosi’s most beautiful girl. General Rockmon also believed that this title could be changed to the whole world, but today, General Rockmon realized that his vision was too shallow.
Cecily had a different temperament from those stage actors. Just looking at her felt like a long sword was pressed against her neck, but this kind of oppression was a pleasure for any man, it was not a threat.
“It’s an honor to meet you, your Highness Cecily.”
General Rockmont heaved a sigh of relief. If he was going to discuss the cooperation between humans and demons with the sin demon later, he doubted whether the diplomat appointed by His Majesty, Crondo, would be able to remain calm.
“We have come here with the greetings of His Majesty, Crondo III, King of Faroese.”
“Please go to the hall at the back and talk about it.”
Cecily’s gaze fell on Joshua, who was at the end of the team. Joshua instinctively averted his gaze.
“Joshua, come with us.”
”…”
Joshua, who was about to sneak away, could only sigh and follow the team after hearing his sister’s order.
The first friendly contact between humans and demons was much smoother than Joshua had imagined.
Perhaps it was because of his sister’s good looks, the atmosphere was very relaxed when communicating with Faroese’s envoy group.
The purpose of this diplomacy was to hope that the ruler of the demon world could conclude a peace treaty with Faroese, and then ask Cecily about the special products of the demon world, hoping to conduct trade.
In this aspect, Joshua was completely clueless. Similarly, there was a group of four tourists, the leader of which was Carrie.
Joshua and Carrie both started to use the magic net to pass the time. Carrie was browsing the spellcaster forum while Joshua was chatting with Hiri via text message.
This memorable meeting lasted for nearly three hours. Finally, it ended with General Lockmond’s hearty laughter.
“We’ve prepared rooms for everyone to rest in. If you’re tired, you can stay here tonight.”
“Then I’ll have to Trouble Your Highness Cecily.”
After the negotiations just now, General Rockmont had completely crumpled the image of the devil in the church’s canon into waste paper and threw it into the trash can.
The visiting emissaries stood up and left under the lead of Cecily’s watchers.
“Mr. Jose…”Carrie seemed to want to say something.
“Wait outside with your companions. My sister and I have some family matters to discuss,”said Joshua.
Ever since Carrie met Joshua, her imp-like personality had been completely exposed. However, she was still very sensible in such a solemn occasion.
The Black Swan and the elven guard who had been hiding in the shadows left the hall. When they closed the door, only Joshua and Cecily were left in the hall.
