Chapter 253: Eldest Sister (Part II)
Cecily returned to the center of the royal city, which had become much deserted since her brother Qiao Xiu had left the Demon Realm, with only a few unconscious water elementals occasionally seen walking through the corridors.
In addition to the crisis of famine in the royal city, Cersili's headache now is the news of her brother's presence in the human world.
Since she sent her cronies to the human world to find Qiao Xiu, there has been no news for almost half a month.
Cecily was pondering whether to send another watcher to Nolan, but a voice from the depths of the castle corridor interrupted Cecily's thoughts.
Who... Inside the kitchen?
Cecily walked briskly into the depths of the corridor, the only living beings in this area were the water elementals, and the water elementals didn't make such strange noises.
Her first instinct was that there was an intruder inside the castle.
Cecily came to the kitchen door, put her hand on the sword at her waist, and pushed the kitchen door open with her hand.
The intruder apparently didn't sense Cecily's arrival, still churning around in the kitchen.
The sword at Cerseili's waist was unsheathed, and she pushed open the kitchen door, aiming the blade at the figure in the kitchen.
"Fu... Ya? Cerseili saw clearly the figure squatting in the corner of the kitchen, and found that it was none other than her sister, whom she hadn't seen for nearly half a year.
The Four Kings of the Demon Realm, Fuya Yanorod.
“……”
She glanced back at Cersili, unable to answer because she had a loaf of bread in her mouth.
"You... How could it be at such a time... Come to the ground. ”
Cecily put away her sword and looked at the person in front of her and asked.
"I'm hungry."
After eating the bread, she gave a very brief answer.
"Hungry? Wait a minute... How long has it been since you slept!? ”
Cecily saw the other party's face clearly, and there were already traces of dark circles under the eyes.
This seemed unbelievable to Cecilia... The Four Princesses have always been known for their laziness in the Demon Realm, and every time they sleep, it is like a giant bear hibernating, and it is impossible to open their eyes for several months without squinting.
And judging from her current condition, she hasn't closed her eyes for at least half a month.
"What the hell have you been doing all this time?"
Cexili is not familiar with this sister of hers, and the lack of contact is partly due to the fact that the ruler of the Demon Realm strictly forbids the Four Princesses from having contact with anyone.
But as the eldest sister, Cecily felt the need to care about her health.
"Play games."
"Swim... Play? ”
Cecily was slightly stunned when she heard this answer, there was no means of entertainment in this cold castle, and even among the few means of entertainment in the royal city, the only reliable one was to go to the inn opened by the succubus.
Of course, Cecily was not interested in this at all, and after so many years of being a watchman, Cexili was about to forget that there were still words for 'entertainment' and 'game' in the Demon World.
"Hmm."
She nodded, without further reply, and threw all the food left in the kitchen onto a fairly clean rug, and found a rope to wrap around it.
Judging by this stance, it seemed that she was going to hold on to the castle's towers for a whole month.
She expertly wrapped the food in a rug and used a rope to drag it out of the kitchen.
"Are you okay?"
Cersyli asked as she passed her.
Although the Chaos Demon is not as fragile as humans, it is not optimistic from Fuya's physical condition.
"It's fine." She didn't stop, dragging a large pile of food in the direction of the stairs leading to the tower.
Cecily stared at her back, ready to run up to her and stop her.
Although Cecily was not familiar with the Four Princesses, as a watcher, Cecily could not watch her become so decadent because of her 'game'.
But at this moment, a bat flew in through the window of the hallway, and the bat slowly flew in front of Cecily, and as the scarlet blood enveloped the bat, when the blood spread out, a watcher was already half-kneeling in front of Cecily.
At this time, the four princesses had already disappeared around the corner of the corridor with a large pile of food, and Cecily gave up the idea of catching up for a while, and turned her eyes to the blood clan who was kneeling in front of her.
"Pace, what about the third prince?"
"Still... In Nolan. Pace replied in a very low voice, ready to accept Cecily's punishment.
This time he went out and not only didn't bring back the mission goal, but even encountered an accident when he returned, and it took more than ten delays before finally returning to the Demon Realm.
"Why?" Cecily was still calm when she heard this, "He should know how dangerous Nolan is to the demons, and even so, would he still be willing to stay there?" ”
"His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu is indeed in danger in Nolan... The people of the Holy Religion have even carried out an assassination attempt. Pace faithfully reciprocated what she had seen in Nolan.
"The Land of Holy Religion... Assassination? You gave him help? ...... he is now," Cecily said with a hint of nervousness in her tone.
"Your Highness Cersili, I have only been involved in the defeat of the Holy Cult Nation, and the work of protection... It was a group of Nolan's spellcasters and dwarves. ”
Pace felt a little bitter when he said this, of course the demon prince knew about the dangers that would come his way in the human city, but the key problem now was that he was not afraid of these dangers at all.
"A human spellcaster and a dwarf protect a Chaos demon... My brother hired them? ”
Cecily was surprised to hear this, she had been trying to communicate with humans for years, so she knew how difficult it was to gain an ally of humanity.
While a partnership can be built quickly with money, it can be easily broken.
"No, I think they volunteered, and His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu didn't pay any money."
When Pace said this, he added inwardly, "If the card pack is also a reward."
"Voluntary?"
This is even more news that Cecily is completely incomprehensible, humans and dwarves have volunteered to protect a demon? Still under the siege of the Holy Religion Country.
If it were her in this situation, Nolan's spellcasters would have been lucky not to join the roundup, let alone provide assistance.
A large number of questions appeared in Cecili's heart, and finally boiled down to one question.
"Qiao Xiu, what has he done in the past half a year since he left the Demon Realm?"
