How to become a Demon Lord: The Former Hero's Journey as a Demon Lord!

Chapter 71: Beautiful Poison

Chapter 71: Beautiful Poison

The ships coming from the horizon were filled with cargo and they looked like regular ships, but none of the humans knew that there was a grand illusion that was cast over the ships to disguise everything. Floid and Travy were both master illusionists and they cast a double illusion over all the ships.

To be able to cast an illusion big enough to cover a hundred ships, you would need a lot of Mana and it was only because of Floid that they were able to easily cast all the spells.

Pyra, Rizi, and Lilith were the three maids in charge of the ships. The ships all had the capacity to both fly and dive underwater! The three maids were riding on different ships and they would all lead a different part of the charge! Pyra would lead the ships that would be going into the air. Lilith would go underwater with another squadron of ships and finally, Rizi would be the one to fight while sailing on the water.

As they got close to the outposts, Rizi smirked as she saw the head guard of the outposts looking down at her ships. She was very tempted to tell the ships to open fire already, but she knew that it would be a bad idea! If they started to attack now then the kingdom would be alerted earlier and a lot more people would be able to run away. Floid wanted them to start the invasion from the front door so they needed to get closer!

Gareth stared down from the outpost and he saw a short dark-skinned girl looking up at him. Rizi's appearance was also manipulated with Illusion magic, so what Gareth saw was just a typical dark-skinned woman that was wearing a long robe over her body. Rizi waved to Gareth and Gareth blushed as he waved back. He couldn't deny that Rizi was a very beautiful girl. She looked so innocent. Maybe he would go back to the kingdom and meet her later? She looks like she's interested in him! She should be here for longer than a day right.

Rizi chuckled when she saw Gareth blush. Oh, you poor thing. You have no idea what's about to hit this kingdom, do you? Well, I guess I can't blame you. No one can see beyond my master's illusion!

As Rizi's ship passed through, all the other shops behind hers also began to pass. Andromeda didn't come with them for the attack because she was in charge of taking care of the castle and making sure the slaves were in order. Floid gave her complete control over all the castle defenses when he left so he was sure she would be able to defend them if an attack occurs.

Pyra's ship was the next to pass through and Gareth blushed even harder! Pyra was extremely beautiful! He saw another guard whistle in glee from the side once he saw Pyra and Gareth chuckled. These men would always want to see beautiful women! They were all just horny bastards!

But the commotion became even worse once everyone saw Lilith! Lilith was a succubus and she had a very seductive body! Even when she is under an illusion she still attracts the most attention! The men were actually cat-calling and trying their best to get Lilith's attention! Lilith was standing on the deck of the ship and she felt a vein twitch in her head as a man shouted out his magic sigma and told her to call him using a communication circle! She tried her best not to react at all! This is a serious mission and they cannot cause any problems for their master! She would have made sure that she killed that man herself, but she had a lot that she needed to do here!

One of the reasons why Lilith was so eager to come on this mission was because she also had a mission she wanted to complete here. She hasn't told anyone about this, not even the demon lord, but she believed that the former demon lord's daughter was still alive. Lilith didn't believe that Ophis was dead! How can the daughter of the demon lord just die after having her core destroyed!?

There was a large explosion during the fight with the hero and everyone just assumed that the former demon lord died in the explosion, but Lilith didn't believe it! She has been searching through the kingdoms for a long time. She couldn't move about freely for the past hundred years so her movement was very limited. She tried her best to search the western side of Rivalle along with the kingdoms of Uta and Trad and when she couldn't find Ophis there, she almost gave up. She finally planned to come to Aquinas and try one last time. If she didn't find Ophis here then she would have given up, but unfortunately, she never made it to Aquinas. She had been on her way to Aquinas when she ran into the hero Valkyrie and she was saved by the demon lord! She didn't think that she would get an opportunity to leave and search for Ophis again, but she was extremely happy when she heard of this mission!

It was just her luck that the demon lord already had plans to come here and invade Aquinas.

Lilith was going to try and find the daughter of the former demon lord during this invasion! She didn't want anyone to find out about this because she wanted to explain the new situation to Ophis. Ophis didn't know that Floid was now the demon lord and it would be a shock when Ophis finds out that her former enemy has taken the position that her father once held! She will definitely not agree to it and Lilith knew just how strong-headed Ophis was! Ophis might even insult the demon lord to his face in her anger! Lilith can't allow Ophis to face the demon lord like that! Ophis would be killed by the demon lord's servants before she can even open her mouth to insult him once! Alucard already showed many times that he would kill anyone that insulted his lord and even Floid won't ever tolerate something like that!

So Lilith has to find Ophis by herself and explain things to her before presenting her to the demon lord! This is Lilith's second mission in Aquinas and she can't fail no matter what!

As the ships crossed past the outposts, the men from the various outposts continued to stare at the three beautiful women. Gareth told them to stop whistling a while back, if they did it too much then it would become insulting and they would give their kingdom a bad name. He smiled as he saw the ships going towards the pier. He was worried for nothing. How can women as beautiful as that be bad? They will only bring good things to the kingdom. He decided that he would go towards the coast later to see if could woo one of these women. They are all beautiful but there is no way they are all taken already. He will make sure to take one of them as his wife.

.....

Floid, Rosavellt, and Alucard were taken via carriage to the castle in the center of Aquinas. Floid looked outside the carriage window when he saw that many people were moving in a certain direction. When he asked their guide what was going on. The guide told him that the people were all going to listen to the priestess. The priestess, Freya was one of the heroes and she is the greatest figure in Aquinas after the king!

Floid smiled once he heard that Freya was also around. He thought for sure that Pricilla would have warned Freya and Freya would have gone into hiding! He didn't realize that Freya was such an idiot! Did she not believe Pricilla? Maybe she really thinks that I'm not alive at all. I'll have to change that mindset soon.
