Chapter 8: Take a Break
The system of the dictatorial dominaters collapsed.
The failure of two successive rulers of the plenipotentiary has undoubtedly made the world understand that the majesty of the demon king is inviolable.
No matter how unwilling the canary is to shout in the "Arcadia" station, "Arcadia", which has lost a large number of main forces and even suffered heavy losses to its allies, has lost the qualification to continue to serve as the ruler of the full hierarchy.
Just when everyone was fearful in fear every day, lest the Demon King Alliance "Ouroboros" strike again, the "Ouroboros" Alliance was quietly disbanded. The Demon King Alliance did not have a core leader who could unite people's hearts, and after losing their common goal, they naturally parted ways.
What else can you do if you don't disband?
Let the other demon kings submit?
It's unrealistic to think about.
Without a consistent goal, without external pressure, where is it possible for an unruly demon king to obey the orders of others.
Moreover, the strength of the "Ouroboros" is too strong to be conducive to the development of the Hakote, and if it refuses to dissolve after defeating the rulers of the plenipotentiary class, it is impossible to say that the gods and Buddhas will take action together.
The "Ouroboros" is disbanded, and the assembled demon kings go their separate ways, and the next time they meet, they may be enemies.
A white light flashed on the top floor of Castlevania, and then a figure appeared from the light, it was the master of Castlevania, Lai Su Cangzhen, who had returned.
After a while, he noticed the return of the city lord, and the castlevania suddenly became lively.
In order to welcome Cangzhen's triumphant return, Leticia decided to hold a simple banquet. The venue of the banquet is a ready-made dance hall, and all you need to do is prepare the food and you can start. There are not many people who come to the banquet, and the demons are not interested in this kind of banquet, and most of the people who come are humans and youkai from other worlds.
In the middle of the banquet, Leticia learned about what happened to "Arcadia" from Cangzhen, and couldn't help but sigh secretly. In the face of the crusade of the demon kings, "Arcadia" suffered heavy losses. The system of "all-powerful rulers" she established was like a curse, and there was no successor after all.
However, she is no longer the once noble and respected "Hakoniwa Knight", but a demon king who fell because of anger.
Thinking of this, Leticia shook her head and stopped thinking about "Arcadia". Since she chose to become the Demon King, she is no longer the guardian of the box garden, but the feared Demon King "Piercing Gong".
When she raged in her rage, she was defeated by Cangzhen and saved, and Leticia felt sincerely grateful and grateful.
"Didn't you cut the grass and eradicate it? It's not like the owner's character. β
In the eyes of Xiandu Mu Aye, Cang Zhen is not a soft-hearted character. Of course, this is not derogatory, as a leader, you can't be soft-hearted, thick black is the king.
"The finishing touches on the 'Ouroboros' Demon King said they were in charge."
Taking a sip of wine, Cang Zhen said casually.
From a naΓ―ve eye, it is not difficult to see that although "Arcadia" is indeed seriously damaged this time, its foundation has not been shaken, and the core main force Kong Ming, Canary, Baron of the Cross and others are basically still there, and "Arcadia" will definitely make a comeback after spending some time.
If it weren't for the fact that the Bull Demon King couldn't withstand the attack of the gods and Buddhas, and the powerful "all-powerful realm" support such as the White Yasha and the Halloween Queen arrived, Cang Zhen would not be willing to stop there.
At this time, "Arcadia" is still a difficult bone to gnaw, and since someone is willing to take over and promise to get it, it is natural to be happy.
However, although the strength of "Arcadia" has fallen into a trough, Cang Zhen thinks that the Ouroboros Demon King is estimated to have to put a lot of effort into success, and it is possible that he will not be overturned.
However, Cang's guess was so wrong that no one expected Arcadia to lose so badly, and so quickly that people were caught off guard.
A few days after returning to Castlevania, Cang Zhen received the news that "Arcadia" had been stripped of its flag and name, as well as a large number of main members, and had been reduced to the lowest level of "nameless".
This is definitely more shocking than the previous heavy blow to "Arcadia" by the "Ouroboros" alliance.
"It's really fake, did Kong Ming actually lose?"
Cang Zhen couldn't believe his ears, even if the news came from the mouth of the Grim Reaper.
"The whole box garden spread all over the place. Although there is no on-the-spot confirmation, it should not be fake. β
The god of death told Cang Zhen that after the news reached the upper level, those gods and Buddhas in the upper level were stunned.
The business of the intelligence merchants has become very hot, but unfortunately they do not have any exact information for sale.
However, compared to the banner and name of "Arcadia", Cang Zhen is more concerned about the whereabouts of Kong Ming and Canary and others. I heard that because of the failure of the Gift Game, all the main members were banished, and they left the box garden to go to the outside world, just like Pandora who was driven to the world of the god killer.
There are so many outside worlds that the chances of finding them are as slim as looking for a needle in a haystack.
Later, after hearing that the nameless and only some of the remaining people also left one after another after seeing no hope, and in the end, only the weak children who could not survive on their own remained at the station, and the kind White Yasha took care of them, barely maintaining the community.
Of course, because of the loss of the ability to participate in the Gift Game, the surrounding communities have taken advantage of the fire to loot the resources and territory that originally belonged to the nameless.
If it weren't for the fact that the White Yaksha came out as a nameless figure in the end, maybe even the only remaining station would have been taken away.
By the time this calmed down, three or four months had passed.
In the blink of an eye, Erica and the others, who had gone out, returned to Castlevania, and in order to promote mutual understanding, Cangzhen rarely took the initiative to hold a banquet.
In order to organize the banquet ordered by the lord himself, the puppet maids are busy preparing the ingredients, cleaning up, and sending out personnel to recall all those who go out, including inviting allies.
After fighting for a long time and unleashing his desire to fight, Campione from the world of the Godslayer was happy to accept Glori's invitation.
A few days later, the banquet was held as scheduled.
Located in the lobby of Castlevania, guests are greeted by the head maid, Leticia.
I saw that she was dressed in a neat maid's outfit, with her hands folded in front of her, standing motionless on the side of the door, politely greeting the arriving guests. Afterwards, a demon maid greeted her and led the guests to the banquet venue.
In the dance hall, the musicians are playing beautiful and melodious tunes, and the guests here are encouraged by the music, dancing in the middle of the dance floor, swaying their bodies to the music.
On the dance floor, the skirts of the ladies are slightly raised with the spin, the gentlemen pull their dance partners to the beat, and the ghost dancers who accompany the dance weave through the crowd.
"My master, would you like to dance with me?"
Erica, dressed in a flamboyant dress, came up to Cangzhen and held out her palm.
Seeing that the radiant and bright and moving girl invited herself, she smiled innocently and said: "The girl took the initiative to invite, if she refused, it would be too unkind." β
After speaking, he gently held Erica's palm, and Cangzhen wrapped one hand around her thin waist, and then the two smiled at each other and walked to the dance floor.
The two stood opposite each other, swinging their bodies to the music, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, sometimes turning.
It's a great event and everyone is having fun.
At the end of the dance, Erica's cheeks flushed, becoming even more seductive.
The music stopped, and everyone on the dance floor stopped to catch their breath and wait for the next song to begin.
Erica let go of her innocent arm, spun around and broke free from his arms, and walked towards the table with wine glasses beside her.
"Next, please invite others. My master, don't let the girl take the initiative to invite. β
Erica raised her glass and gestured in a certain direction, where there were still a few girls standing off the dance floor.
Slightly stunned, Cang Zhen suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, he is not a fool with zero emotional intelligence. I just didn't want to dance before, but now that I've warmed up, of course I'm out of the way.
"Beautiful young lady, may I have the pleasure of inviting you to dance?"
Cang Zhen stood in front of the beautiful girl, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, stretched out her right hand and bowed slightly, the unique elegance of the vampire clan was undoubtedly displayed.
Although he didn't deliberately change into the dress he wore to participate in the ball, Cangzhen's pale trench coat set off his slender figure, which still gave people a bright feeling.
Looking at the master in front of her, Leticia was stunned for a moment, and then she put her hand in his palm, gladly accepting Cangzhen's invitation. Even if it is just an ordinary, featureless maid outfit, it is more beautiful than a gorgeous dress when worn on her body.
Just as Leticia reached out and grabbed the ribbon on her head, trying to untie it and restore her original figure, Cang Zhen took her hand and shook her head slightly to indicate that she didn't need to do that.
"The owner is Lolicon."
Holding her arms and snuggling up to the dance floor, Leticia muttered something quietly.
"I'm not Lolicon, I just like those pure girls."
Cang Zhen defended with a face full of wrongs, of course, his explanation was in the eyes of others, and it was simply proof that he liked Lori.
As a caring maid, Leticia naturally will not be so ignorant that she does not give face to her master, and she smiles indifferently without words.
Then, the music started and the crowd on the dance floor flowed again.
One after another dance music sounded, and the girls around Cang Zhen changed one after another, and finally invited all the girls he knew.
From morning to night, there is no music and laughter. Like an industrious bee, the doll maid removed the empty plates and wine glasses and brought them full of food and drink.
There is no intermission at the banquet, and those who feel tired quietly leave and go to the courtyard to rest for a while, and when the rest is almost over, they return to the banquet to enjoy themselves.
Put aside your troubles, put aside your sorrows, and get drunk today.
Even though most of the people who came to the banquet were non-human beings, the pale wine was not an ordinary commodity, and barrels of wine that had been treasured for many years were poured into people's stomachs, which still made many people drunk and unconscious.
Luckily, Leticia had already made arrangements, and the puppet maid sent the drunk guests to the guest rooms as soon as possible. The huge castlevania has no shortage of rooms for guests to rest.
