Chapter 116: Unhappy Breakup
Hearing Astaro's words, everyone present tensed their nerves.
They have dominated the underworld for many years, and they have never been more nervous than they are today.
While everyone was holding their breath, only Belmont's expression remained relaxed.
"What are you afraid of, we have the hole card of Astaro. ”
"Aren't you going to let me go to battle?" Mortis's face was cold, and he was skeptical of Belmont's words as the demon king.
"Why, you're going to die like that stupid guy at Cliffor?"
Belmont slapped her hands with a look of disdain.
"Lord Belmont, how can you insult Lord Mortis like that?! Lord Mortis is ......"
"That's enough, Timshi. Mortis held out his hand to stop Timshi's words.
"You need not argue for me, for since our king has made arrangements for this, we just have to obey. ”
"But ......"
Timshi lowered his head and looked like he was about to cry.
Mortis touched the girl's head and sighed helplessly.
He looked at Belmont on the top seat, and the man was smiling, seemingly pleased with the outcome.
Mortis knew that Belmont was on the lookout for him.
After all, the underworld was originally a world of the jungle, not to mention the throne of the demon king, there must be countless eyes staring at it.
For Belmont, there are no friends in this world, all kings are lonely and proud, and other demons just need to submit to the king's feet.
But in this underworld, there are still many powerful demons who are strong enough to compete with Belmont for the throne, but in the end, they all gave up the competition and chose to surrender due to various purposes.
Mortis is one, he was defeated in a heads-up with Belmont and had to obey him as agreed.
On the other side, Astaro is said to be a powerful demon with the ability to commit great sins, and even Lilith is quite fond of him.
It stands to reason that Astaro is an existence that is enough to compete with Belmont, but now that he has surrendered to Belmont, he must have been caught with something.
Mortis looked at Astaro's expression, the man's expression seemed unbearable, I'm afraid that guy didn't want to fight the upcoming demon named Honor.
"Is that what Belmont is for?"
Mortis muttered, the answer is already obvious, Belmont is ready to let Astaro and Honoror fight, the so-called snipe and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman, and wait until both sides are scarred before making their own move, which can solve the two disasters at once.
"Mortis, the situation in the north has not been very optimistic lately, and it seems that it is not the right time for you to return. ”
As if inadvertently, Belmont mentions lightly something that belongs to Mortis.
Really.
Mortis laughed in his heart, Belmont summoned Mortis back to balance the strength of this table, but how could Belmont, who likes to eat alone, let Mortis exist here, so now he will definitely break up Mortis, in case Mortis stabs him from the back at a critical time.
"My king, are you kidding, the enemy is about to hit the door, can you still take care of the situation in the north?"
Matis said it with a lot of emotion, his words did not make sense, although the situation in the north and south was very stale, but it was not a big deal for Mortis to be on the front line for the time being.
However, the situation was different, and if Astaro was defeated, they would risk losing their entire domain.
"You mean I'll lose if Asthalo loses?"
"Don't dare. It's just that as your courtier, I have an obligation to keep you safe, and please take back the order you just gave me and let me stay here just in case. ”
"You guy!" Belmont's eyes widened suddenly, he didn't expect Mortis to rebel against him, and the murderous aura spread from Belmont's body.
The ominous black aura overflowed all around, and it was a sign of Belmont's anger.
"Okay, okay, let's stop arguing, I think Mortis has a point in this matter. ”
Lilith smiled, she saw the right moment to interject, and in that short moment, the situation changed in an instant.
"That's right, I'm in favor of Lord Mortis!"
Tim Hee clasped Mortis's arm tightly, "I'm going to be with Lord Mortis. ”
"Tsk. ”
Belmont smacked his lips unhappily, although he was the king of demons, he was not a complete dictator, not to mention that at this important juncture, the powers of Lilith and Tim Xi were quite useful, and he did not want to lose the pawns that he could use.
"Did you lift a rock and hit yourself in the foot?"
Astaro on the side could see it clearly, and he shrugged his shoulders and smiled mockingly at Belmont.
"Shut up!"
Belmont's face almost distorted.
"You know, what happens to me off! ”
The smile on Astalo's face disappeared suddenly, he didn't wear the mask he usually used to contain his anger during this meeting.
Seeing Astaro stand up suddenly, he was clearly separated from Belmont by dozens of meters, but the next moment he appeared in front of Belmont.
Not only the Demon King, but the people around him didn't see exactly how Astaro did it.
At this moment, Astaro grabbed Belmont's neck with one hand, and endless anger burned in his eyes.
"If you dare to do anything to Shirley, I won't let you go even if I die. ”
His voice was very low, but the anger in that voice seemed to be a monstrous wave, and it was so overwhelming that everyone present was breathless.
"Let him go, Asthalo. ”
At this moment, Mortis stood up, and a pure blue sword in his hand was pointed at Astalo, and the sword wind could kill Astaru at any time.
"Although he said too much, he is the king I am waiting for, and as a knight, I have an obligation to protect the king's safety. ”
"Hmph. ”
Seeing that Matis was so resolute and not easy to attack, Astaro let go and let Belmont go.
The smile on the Demon King's face was completely distorted.
He dusted off the dust with his hand and looked at Astaro viciously.
"Very well, Astalo, I have made a note of what you have done today, and when everything is over, I will slowly settle the account with you. ”
"I hope you live to that time. ”
Without looking back, Astaro turned and left the hall of the meeting.
"Well, it's time for me to take my leave. ”
Lilith chuckled at Belmont with a triumphant smile and hurried after Astalo.
"Lord Mortis, you're alright. ”
Tim Hi looked at Matis worriedly, she also knew that Astaro was not easy to mess with, and now that Mortis and Astaro have formed a bond, the relationship must be even worse in the future.
"Lord Belmont, let's take our leave!"
Wanting not to stay here and suffer Belmont's wrath, Mortis saluted Belmont and quickly left with Tim Hee.
"Abominable !!"
When everyone had left, Belmont was the only one left in the chamber, and he was furious, kicking the long table in front of him to pieces.
"One or two have disobeyed me! Well, very well, when I have the power of great sin, then you will be able to bear it. ”
Belmont smiled hideously, and he pinched the neck of the girl who had been cherished in his arms, and sadsadistly lifted the expressionless girl into the air.
"You're right, my little cutie. ”
