Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair.

Chapter 169 Night Visitors
"I say, have you been to the Nine Hells?"

"Strictly speaking, there is only Avernus on the first floor," the golden dragon turned around, "You should have been to the den of those kobolds, right? The previous owner of that place was a copper dragon. The purpose of our "going to hell" was to get her body back."

"I heard that Tiamat also lives there," Victoria was a little tipsy at the moment, and looked over curiously, "Have you met Him?"

Tiamat and Bahamut are gods in almost all planes and worlds. Their power may not be strong, but they can make almost all mortals and gods fear them-because they can walk everywhere!
Other gods generally do not interfere directly in the affairs of mortals to avoid disrupting the balance, but these two do not have to worry about this.

But the golden dragon went to the dragon mother's lair - wasn't this a bit too bold?

"I won't go alone," the golden dragon smiled slightly, "In fact, the relationship between the two sides is not as incompatible as the rumors say. The death of the copper dragon has nothing to do with the dragon mother."

"It's just that he was probably in a bad mood at that time. When we passed by and paid our respects to him, one of his incarnations rushed out and attacked us."

Jin Long sighed: "Several seniors held him back, and we took the opportunity to pass through and snatched the body back from the devils."

"So Ron, are you asking about my experience? I don't mind telling you about it."

"That's not it," Ron waved his hand. "I came here because I saw Yelena trying to talk to you. She seems to be a sorcerer, and the leader might be a devil."

"She told me a while ago that her clan leader had marked me and was going to come over to 'visit' me. Do you have any suggestions on this?"

"Her leader?" Jin Long frowned slightly. He chanted a spell briefly and cast it on Yelena. He looked up after a minute or two.

"She's right. She did make a contract with a devil. No wonder I keep smelling sulfur here."

"And the bad news is that the demon is of a high rank. If it wants to find you, it shouldn't be that difficult."

Ivy came over and said, "In that case, can you live here for a while and protect Ron?"

"That level of existence is probably too powerful for us."

"The devil is very cunning, he will definitely come when I'm not around," Jin Long sighed, "and to be honest, I'm not sure..."

"You can't beat him?" Ron was stunned for a moment, "You must be kidding me."

The golden dragon glanced at Ron and said, "It's not that we can't defeat them, but that we can't kill them. Even if a demon is killed in the material plane, it will only return to hell. Besides, it may not be its original form."

"In this case, it would be futile for me to attack it - you would become enemies with her, and I can't always be your bodyguard."

"If you ask me for advice, I can only say: let it be and don't answer any of its questions directly."

"Will it be safe now?"

"At least there's no harm in that," Jin Long shrugged, "A devil is always a little easier to get along with than a demon, right?"

The Golden Dragon obviously had no way to stop Yelena's clan leader from visiting Ron, so they could only send him away with regret and set a time to go to the Black Dragon's lair. As for how to deal with the unexpected guest who might be very powerful, the Golden Dragon was right: just let it go.

But Ron never expected that this "nature" would come so quickly.

In the middle of the night, Ron, who was lying on his bed, suddenly opened his eyes. A strange smell stimulated his nasal cavity, which made him wake up immediately.

It's a mixture of sulfur, red wine, perfume and other smells...a fragrance?
"Hey, looks like some people have finally woken up?"

When he heard a soft and lazy female voice, Ron jumped up from the bed in an instant. His hand brushed over a pottery on the head of the bed, and a faint light suddenly illuminated his bedroom.

He bought it from a traveling trader and used it as a desk lamp after enchanting it with light.

With the help of the light, Ron saw the uninvited guest who appeared in front of his bed in the middle of the night.

Judging from her physical signs and voice, she seemed to be a female. She had a pair of small horns, a pair of leather wings, and a forked tail like a succubus. At the moment, she was looking at Ron with a smile, and picked up his "table lamp" and looked at it back and forth in her hand.

"It's a crude little thing, but it's very useful," she commented. "Before I came here, I was wondering if I should give you a moment to light the candles."

"I don't want to be misunderstood as attacking you," Ron yawned, "You see, I usually light the lamps with magic."

"Are you trying to tell me that I would feel threatened by a small flame?" The woman laughed like a silver bell. "No, it won't. It doesn't matter if you use fireball to light the fire. You can try it."

"Forget it, I know the devil isn't that afraid of this," Ron waved his hand, "Are you Yelena's leader? She said you were coming to see me, but why?"

"I don't think there should be any intersection between us."

"Obviously, what you 'felt' was wrong," the woman didn't seem to have any intention of being polite. She twisted her waist and sat on the edge of the bed. "I saw you through her eyes. Although your hypocritical temperament makes me feel sick, this is also an advantage, right?"

"for example?"

"For example, when you want to do something very bad, no one will suspect you." The other party's soft little hand came up and touched Ron's face. The latter quickly turned over and rolled off the bed, taking two or three steps towards the door. This action attracted a burst of laughter from the other party.

"Why did you run so far? I'm not going to eat you."

"I dare not say that," Ron muttered, "If you want me to become someone like Baron Greenmoor, you can give up now."

"Become him?" The succubus-like woman laughed disdainfully, "You've already surpassed him, haven't you? What's the good of becoming him? You can obviously become more...interesting."

"But before that, I would like to ask how much you know about the fantasy land, for example, the mines?"

"That was left behind by an earlier kingdom." When the other party asked this, Ron knew that she must have more than just Yelena's eyes - how could the shadow spirit who didn't even know where Green Swamp Town was know all this?
"You've been there?" She nodded. "Have you discovered that energy from the abyss is 'leaking' out from the bottom of the mine?"
