Chapter: Chapter 544
“After losing my cat ears and tail, I feel a bit strange?” Yin muttered to herself, touching her head.
Leticia, who had finished her work, was stretching nearby. Hearing Yin’s muttering, she turned her head and said to Yin, “If you miss them, I can make you another pair. It’s not difficult to make these things anyway.”
Yin thought for a moment and then shook her head. She didn’t really miss her cat-girl attributes much. It was just that she was still getting used to the new body.
Fortunately, her adaptability was strong, and the body Leticia made this time was even of higher quality than the previous one, using top-tier materials. During the process, other gods also contributed some power to strengthen this body, making it a veritable work of art.
Yin even suspected that this body could support her using full power for a while!
Although using full power would greatly shorten the lifespan of the body, she wouldn’t be a burden in unavoidable situations.
“Then there’s no need. This body is already sufficient. I feel like I could traverse more than ten worlds consecutively without even breaking a sweat.” Yin’s confidence had greatly increased after the upgrade, and she was full of energy. If the timing were right, she would have already gone to seek revenge on the Gods Seat.
“Then please, Miss Yin, go and bring the Orc Great Chieftain and Evangeline. We’re done with the Demon race’s affairs, and now we need to worry about the human world,” Leticia patted Yin’s shoulder and assigned her a new task.
Not to mention anything else, Yin was truly powerful when it came to transportation. Bringing people across worlds didn’t take much time.
“Alright, I’ll go grab them for you right away!”
With her new body, Yin jumped off the large white bed with full of energy. She reached out and tore the air beside her, creating a spatial rift.
“Is it somehow easier than before?” Yin thought to herself. This was probably due to the worlds moving closer to each other.
“I’m leaving now. Wait for my good news!”
With that, Yin plunged into the spatial passage and disappeared.
Watching the reborn Yin leave, Leticia’s gaze fell upon the discarded cat-girl body. This body was now unoccupied. Logically, it should have been destroyed, but Little Feng seemed to have enjoyed the barbecue last time and wanted more.
Why not make a useful resource out of it and roast this discarded body of Yin’s too?
A body infused with the divine power of the God of Space was much more nutritious than an ordinary magical beast. Besides, Yin didn’t mind such things and had enjoyed it greatly last time.
Well, if that’s the case, why not make this body a grand feast for future guests? For Evangeline and the Orc Chieftain, this divine meat would be an exceptionally luxurious meal.
When Leticia found Qira and explained her idea, Qira’s expression was one of sheer terror.
Looking at the lifeless cat-girl body her sister was carrying on her shoulder, Qira blinked and stammered, “Don’t our Demon race have a custom of eating such things?”
Although the Demon race could be rough in some aspects, they weren’t so rough as to eat humanoid creatures for dinner without batting an eye, especially when it was a body she was very familiar with!
When Leticia was away, Qira had met Yin many times. In Qira’s eyes, this cat-girl body was synonymous with Yin. Now, to turn her friend’s body into a grand feast to entertain guests was completely venturing into the realm of the bizarre!
No, no, the reputation of the Demon race couldn’t be ruined like this! Absolutely not!
We are a civilized race, and eating people is really not appropriate!
“But Yin agreed to it! She even enjoyed it last time!”
“Still no!” Qira put her hands on her chest and made a big cross, firmly stating that she absolutely could not accept this. “Dispose of it quickly!”
“Oh.” Leticia scratched her head. Since Qira disagreed, she would let it go. It was a shame for the Orc Great Chieftain, who would have to settle for an ordinary Demon race feast this time.
“Then I’ll go dispose of this body. Bye.”
“Make sure to dispose of it!” As she watched her sister leave, a sudden unease welled up in Qira’s heart. She had a feeling that her sister was likely to do something outrageous later.
“No way, right? Sister should be trustworthy, right?” Qira felt a headache coming on. Why did she feel like she was the older sister now?
Was this reasonable!
Looking at the mountain of documents on her desk, Qira felt that it was perhaps not reasonable.
After leaving Qira’s study, Leticia carried Yin’s body and went straight to Little Feng, who was playing in the garden.
This little phoenix was currently poking a wiggling caterpillar with a wooden stick, and she seemed to be quite enjoying it.
However, as Leticia approached, she immediately jumped up from the ground and gave Leticia a brilliant smile, “Sister Leticia!”
“So cute!” Leticia exclaimed in her heart. “Much cuter than Qira!”
“Cough, cough, I can’t think like that. Qira is also very cute, but the heavy workload has bent her spine, preventing her from showing such a cute expression.”
“Is this Sister Yin?” Feng didn’t think much of it. Seeing the body Leticia was carrying on her shoulder, she tilted her head and asked with confusion, “Hmm, no, Sister Yin isn’t inside here.”
“This is the body Yin replaced. I thought no one wanted it, so I brought it for you to play with,” Leticia briefly explained the situation, telling Feng that no one wanted the body anymore, so Feng could do whatever she wanted with it. “You can dispose of it later anyway.”
“Dispose of it? You mean burn it?” Feng blinked, her eyes clear.
“Anything is fine. You can play with it for a longer time if you want,” Leticia threw the cat-girl body on the ground and clapped her hands. “I need to go talk to our ancestors about future plans, so I’ll be leaving now.”
“Goodbye, Sister Leticia!”
Leticia came and went like the wind, leaving the body to Feng before departing. The little phoenix looked at the body lying on the ground, her expression gradually becoming conflicted.
Sister Leticia said this thing was for me to play with now, but how should I play with it? And how should I dispose of it in the end?
Burning it directly seems like quite a waste. Oh right, the grilled meat I ate a few days ago tasted pretty good. Should I do it again?
After handing the item over to Feng, Leticia returned to the Demon King’s Palace and discussed the details of future plans with Infino and the others. After a while, spatial fluctuations emanated from not far away, indicating that Yin had indeed returned, tearing through space.
As expected, a few minutes later, Yin arrived at the reception room with Evangeline, along with a few elves. Leticia found them somewhat familiar, seeming to be Evangeline’s staunch subordinates from the last time she saw them.
Upon seeing Leticia, who was sitting in a chair with a benevolent expression, the elves seemed unsure of what to say for a moment. After a short period of quiet discussion, they respectfully bowed to Leticia and greeted her as “Your Majesty, the Demon King.”
For the elves, such etiquette was already considered highly respectful.
Evangeline, however, didn’t pay much attention to such formalities. She walked directly to Leticia’s side and asked with a smile, “You called me here this time for that matter, right?”
Before Leticia left the Demon race, she had mentioned future arrangements to Evangeline, the most important of which was for Evangeline to accompany her to the human world to pressure them into handing over the Prophecy Book. Now that Leticia had asked her to come here to discuss matters, it was likely about this.
“That’s only one of them. There’s also another matter. We’ll discuss that all together once the Orcs arrive,” Leticia nodded. Her main reason for asking Evangeline to come was naturally about the Prophecy Book, but she also needed to collect materials for Youming. “I want you to help me find some materials. The more power we have to deal with the Gods Seat, the better.”
Leticia couldn’t help Yin with her materials for now, but she could help Youming, though she would need Evangeline’s help.
“I’ll have my subordinates try to find these materials when I get back. However, don’t hold out too much hope. I haven’t even heard of the names of these materials, so finding them won’t be quick,” Evangeline said to Leticia after having the elves accompanying her record the materials Leticia needed. Her current control over the elves was neither strong nor weak, and it would be difficult to make all the elves obey her and take action.
“It’s fine, I’m just trying my luck. How much progress has been made on Qing’s materials? Can the ritual be completed in a short period?” Leticia nodded, understanding Evangeline’s difficulties. What she was more concerned about now was Qing’s unsealing progress. If Qing could break free from the seal in a short period, it would give Leticia greater confidence.
Upon hearing this question, Evangeline’s expression became more relaxed. It seemed that Qing’s progress was quite pleasing.
“After searching the warehouse of the Elder Council, I found quite a few materials that Qing needed, which greatly accelerated the progress. Now, we only need the final few materials. Qing should be free within seven days at the latest.”
“You found the key too? Don’t tell me you intend to do it yourself?” Leticia asked, tapping her chin. She hadn’t asked about the specific details of Flora’s unsealing before and now wondered if Evangeline was the one acting as the key.
However, Evangeline’s physical condition seemed a bit lacking. If she were to act as the key, she probably wouldn’t survive.
“I have a good sense of myself. Even if I wanted to do it, Flora and Qing wouldn’t let me. Flora’s key requirement isn’t that high, so I… well, you know.” Evangeline explained, her gaze drifting, indicating that there was quite a bit of shadiness involved. “As for Qing, isn’t there you, Leticia?”
With Leticia around, the crucial key issue wouldn’t be a problem.
“So you’ve had your eye on me for a long time, you sly girl.” Leticia poked Evangeline’s forehead with her finger good-naturedly. Her expression also became more relaxed. If Qing could also be released from the seal, the personnel allocation for future plans wouldn’t be so stretched.
After a brief conversation, Leticia took Evangeline on a tour of the Demon King’s Palace. The elves brought by Evangeline were received by Xueer, who rushed over. This was something the maid was an expert at.
She would definitely serve these elves very comfortably.
“Your place is indeed much more luxurious than mine, Leticia. Is this the foundation of the Demon race? It makes me so jealous I want to bite my handkerchief.” As Leticia led her around the Demon King’s Palace, Evangeline felt that her own Elven Royal Palace was like a country house, completely incomparable to this Demon race palace.
What happened to the elves being a race of art and elegance? Why wasn’t this building better than the Demon race’s?
Those architects should really be dragged out and executed.
“The Demon King’s Palace is only a medium-sized building within the Demon King City. Some large noble estates are even more beautiful than my Demon King’s Palace. I’ll take you to those places if you have the chance in the future. It will definitely surprise you.” Leticia patted the wall next to her and said that her Demon King’s Palace wasn’t that luxurious either. “I’ve been planning to tear down and rebuild the Demon King’s Palace, but I never had the chance. This royal palace is quite old, and it’s actually a bit uncomfortable to live in.”
“Besides, your Elven Royal Palace is hung on a tree and integrated with it, which is called having a unique charm. Yours is inner beauty, which is different from our Demon race’s aesthetics.”
“But I’m just a vulgar person. When I bring Xiao Yao back to the Elven race, and she discovers that the Elven Royal Palace isn’t as beautiful as her house in the human world, wouldn’t I lose face?” Evangeline said, with her hands behind her back, swinging her head and smiling happily. “After this matter is resolved, I think I can bring Xiao Yao back to the Elven race.”
“If this matter can truly be resolved, you’ll be a great hero,” Leticia chuckled. She didn’t realize that Evangeline was also quite passionate. “Remember to send me an invitation when you have your wedding. I’ll definitely bring Qira to celebrate.”
“Of course. I’ll never forget Leticia, but you can’t be too stingy with your gifts then.”
“Don’t worry about my gifts. The Demon race’s treasury is huge, and it will definitely make you look good,” Leticia said with a chuckle. “Then you can’t be stingy when I have my wedding in the future either.”
“Your Majesty, the Demon King! Our Elven race is very poor and cannot afford such a large expenditure!”
“I don’t care. If I send you an invitation, you have to give me a gift.”
