The demon with the six unfamiliar marks in front of him may not be an active demon in this era.
"..."
Lan Qi thought for a moment, as if he was asked a question he hadn't heard in a long time.
According to the title law of the demon clan, titles can generally be used as honorifics. For example, Pranay of Truth, Lan Qi can call him Lord Truth.
But he has no title.
"Just...call me Wumingqing."
Lan Qi replied softly and slowly.
Pranay told him that if he meets other demons, he can answer like this.
"...?"
Lieutenant Colonel Luka's shoulders trembled, and he timidly raised his head and peered along the brim of his military hat at the demon.
This was the first time he saw a living nameless demon.
If the three marks include the Ancestral Soul Trial, or are recognized by the contemporary Demon King, they will be further titled. Otherwise, even if they become a great demon, they will still be an "unnamed great demon" that is not recognized by the demons.
To the demons, the "nameless great demon" is itself a taboo existence. A great demon that even the demons are unwilling to acknowledge is often more dangerous than a regular great demon.
What’s more, it is an ancient demon clan with six seals.
The current ruler of the demon clan, Fallen Kaliela, is only seven seals.
"Don't worry, I'm not an enemy of the Demon Realm. I came to the Demon Realm this time for important matters."
Lan Qi smiled helplessly when he saw the reaction of the demon officer.
He will become a nameless great demon. Mainly due to the times, he will not be able to pass the ancestral land trial or be recognized by the previous generation of demon kings.
"So that's it..."
Lieutenant Colonel Luka immediately understood the purpose of this mysterious demon.
Previously, this great demon had concealed his identity, pretending to be a human and living outside the demon world for many years. He even apparently held a high position in the Paulante Empire.
Now that the northern continent is in chaos and the old king of the demon world is dead, he wants to take the descendant princess into his hands.
Although as an old antique demon, there may be a big generation gap between him and the princess, but the demons never care about the age difference, and the age difference of hundreds or even thousands of years is a big deal.
"Sir, is there anything we need to do? I will do my best to make up for it."
Lieutenant Colonel Luca knew that he was not qualified to intervene and had even offended this great demon before.
But he believed that this big demon would definitely need a guide since he had not returned to the demon world for many years, and if his goal of returning to the demon world was the princess, he would naturally not go on a killing spree and violate the rules of the demon world.
"I don't want to bother you. This is your job. It's understandable."
Lan Qi waved his hand in response, not intending to blame them or needing them to make any remediation.
"But have you ever thought that colonels and non-commissioned officers on this border may often encounter this kind of trouble in the future? After all, in my opinion, the human country is not peaceful at the moment, and the vampires are already ready to make trouble. The North-South Treaty will Putting you in a dilemma.”
He glanced at the count's corpse in the distance.
Lan Qi had already seen before that the Lucca officer was not so decisive in the count's appeal. Every step was hesitant and he was full of reluctance.
According to Lan Qi's understanding of the demons, even if Pranay has such a tolerant character, he would be extremely angry if the "North-South Treaty" was put in his face.
"..."
Luka fell silent and tightened his grip on the sword hilt.
"Do you think the demons are too cowardly?"
Lan Qi continued to ask.
It didn't seem like he was torturing the other person, but he just hadn't returned to the demon world for many years and was simply confused from his perspective.
"..."
Lieutenant Colonel Luka couldn't answer what the big demon said.
To be honest, he also wanted to be as clear-minded as this gentleman and not have to be obedient to the vampires, but this was not something he could change. He was just an officer with a neither high nor low position.
"Think carefully about what kind of demon you want to be."
Lan Qi patted Luca on the shoulder with one hand and said nothing more.
He felt that Lieutenant Colonel Luca was quite sophisticated and that spending time at the border might be too wasteful. He would communicate with him and his subordinates later on the road to see if he could give them some inspiration.
Subsequently.
Lan Qi looked in the direction he came all the way.
There should be no danger in the snowy field now. She only needs to borrow a skeleton war horse from the demon officer, and Sigre should be able to reach Xiaoye City in ten hours.
Chapter 563 Sigrid felt like she had had a long dream
Lan Qi looked at Xiang Xigre's short figure and exhaled a light mist.
"Go back to the Paulante Empire."
He was as gentle as ever.
Moving forward, that's not where she should go.
He dug into the inside pocket of his coat and took out six distinct badges.
The Lord of Algom in Little Rock had previously bid him farewell and reluctantly wished him all the best in his subsequent journey, and presented him with a commemorative badge representing friendship.
Later he learned that this was the family emblem of the great lord, which meant that he would be an eternal ally and honored guest, because the lords of every subsequent city-state gave him one and explained it to him.
Give these badges to Sigre and she should receive a lot of care along the way.
Before he could finish speaking.
"Rocky McCarthy...that little wolf girl has been hit by my locking magic during the battle...the fourth ancestor will find her sooner or later...hehehe..."
Count Gregory's gloomy and intermittent laughter still echoed in the snowfield, until it was buried by the wind and snow, it was still like a curse that could not be dispersed.
"If you have the ability, just keep taking her with you..."
Anyway, as a blood count, he will not die. In two weeks, the fourth ancestor, Duke Eduardo, will arrive in the demon world. By then, the wolf girl will definitely be discovered and the liquidation will begin.
Only this wolf girl could not be let go by the vampires.
One day, she will grow stronger than her father, and coupled with the hatred that is engraved in her heart, it will be an unpredictable disaster for the vampires.
"grown ups!"
Upon hearing this, Officer Luca immediately raised his hand and motioned to his men to control the Count's head and stop him from provoking madly and offending the big demon clan.
He then looked at the little girl behind Lan Qi.
Although it seems that the relationship between this little girl and the big demon is not bad, after all, it is just the big demon playing human games with her.
The fourth ancestor, Duke Eduardo, is a vampire sage who is difficult to compete with even fallen ministers. A little girl has no value, and it is worthy for the big demon to form a deadly feud with such a ninth-level vampire for her.
"..."
Sigre didn't respond.
Holding Lan Qi's coat tightly.
She lowered her head and pressed her head against Lan Qi's back.
It was like she was the last willful one, telling Lan Qi a silent message.
"Then there's no way."
Lan Qi breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at Sigre.
"We may have to modify the contract a little. Would you like to accompany me on a trip to the Demon Realm?"
Even though he had turned into a demon, and his emerald green pupils were strange and unknown, the depth of his eyes still seemed to say, "Leaving you alone really makes me uneasy."
Sigre stared at Lan Qi blankly, her eyes sparkling.
Finally she threw her head up and cried like a child.
After losing her parents, she had never cried like this again, as if she could let out all the grievances, fears and despair that had been accumulated in her heart.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, her cries filled with unspeakable grievances and indescribable relief - gratitude for the continuation of life and farewell to the horror she had experienced.
"At your age, you can cry whenever you want. I thought you were too mature before."
Lan Qi knelt down and patted Sigre's beret.
Sigre's hand was still holding his other cuff, like her only anchor of stability in this precarious situation.
Thinking carefully about the fact that she is still a child who has just turned eleven years old, Lan Qi feels that she is so difficult and so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
"You've had a lot of bad luck so far and have had to become strong, but even so you're still being chased all day long, but it's not your fault."
Lan Qi said with a smile.
She took a few deep breaths and wanted to speak, but it was as if her chest was frozen and she couldn't speak.
"Sigre, you are just a child, you have done nothing wrong from beginning to end."
Lan Qi said again, his tone firmer.
"Wow ah ah..."
In Sigre's moist and hazy eyes, the desire to live has been rekindled, and she wants to seek a gentle future.
After an unknown amount of time, she seemed to be tired of crying. She was already too tired and gradually closed her eyes under Lan Qi's voice, hugged his neck and fell asleep.
Lan Qi could only pick her up and look at Lieutenant Colonel Luca in the wind and snow.
"I have to ask Mr. Luka to take me to the demon world. Also, I have to ask you not to expose my identity. I am just a foreign demon businessman. As for how to handle the border identity, I have to ask Mr. Luka."
There is also a vampire earl on the ground, and he needs a porter to help him transport the Demon King's city.
"Of course, it's my honor to be able to help you."
The demon officer saluted Lan Qi.
Even without the identity of a great demon, he was amazed by the six badges of the orc city-state that the great demon just took out. As a demon trader, if he could get the care of the orc city-state in the Land of Eternal Night, he would be very impressed. With its own power and convenience, many chambers of commerce in the demon world will try their best to please them.
