The maid squad is too strong, what use is there for me, the Demon King?

Emily was startled by the sudden appearance of the dark figure.

She was initially puzzled as to why Lord Shadow had suddenly put her down, until the shadow crashed into her at a speed she couldn't even see.

After realizing what had happened, Emily thought she had encountered some powerful enemy, but when she saw a dog-like creature rubbing against Gray's arms, Emily's little mind went blank for a few seconds.

After roughly figuring out the situation, Emily found the cat-like creature in front of her to be somewhat familiar.

This woman seems familiar... I feel like I've seen her somewhere before.

Emily tried hard to recall the figures of the several waitresses from the Shadow Court during the last attack on the village by the slave-catching team.

As Zeta carefully examined the dog, the figure of the dog-like creature before him gradually overlapped with a dark shadow from his memory.

No way, how could this woman be her? They're too different.

After enjoying the fluffy dog ​​ears that Fury was so fascinated by, Gray still couldn't push the dog away from his arms, so he simply let her rub against him.

Gray had no reservations about Zeta the dog; the girl's intelligence was truly worrisome, and he doubted his fiancée would be jealous of a pet.

"Have you been waiting long?" Gray asked.

Some time had passed since the message was sent here, and Gray felt that the dog was getting restless; she might have already made a move against the stronghold of the Lust and Pleasure faction of the Demonic Order.

"Yes, knowing the boss was coming, Zeta stayed here waiting."

Gray's lips twitched suddenly, feeling somewhat ashamed.

Zeta, the simple-minded dog, doesn't lie. Even if she does lie, you can tell from her flustered expression. She's a child who truly can't lie, because she'll be caught immediately if she does.

Zeta the dog remained calm, so there was no need to doubt the truthfulness of her words.

In other words, this girl has been waiting for him here for the past few days.

He probably only ate when his waiters brought him food at mealtimes, and he rarely slept. He only collapsed when he was so exhausted that he couldn't hold on any longer.

Although this girl can't stand being bored, she'll stick to something no matter what.

Gray couldn't even imagine how tedious Zeta's waiting days must have been.

I really shouldn't have listened to Delta and delayed our departure by a few days, otherwise Zeta wouldn't have had to wait so long...

Silently shifting the blame to Delta, Gray said apologetically, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

"If we can see the boss in a few days, it's not a long time at all!"

Gray felt as if his heart had been struck a heavy blow.

Damn me!

It took Gray a long time to calm down a little before a female dog-like creature walked towards them from a distance.

"Lord Zeta, time to eat...!"

The female dog-like demi-human was stunned by the scene before her.

Lady Zeta snuggled into the arms of a person dressed in a purple-black robe and acted coquettishly.

Her mind raced, and combining Gray's black robes with the message she'd received a few days ago that Lord Shadow would be coming, the female dog-human instantly understood the current situation.

"Subordinate No. 0233 welcomes Lord Shadow Demon!"

He bent over at almost a 90-degree angle, and his voice trembled.

I don't think I'm that scary, am I?

Gray sighed inwardly, "No need for formalities."

"Yes!"

Like a catapult launch, number 0233 straightened up instantly.

Gray stepped forward and, with 0233 trembling nervously, took the lunchbox from her and handed it to Zeta.

Zeta's eyes lit up, and she took the lunchbox, grabbing the food inside and stuffing it into her mouth.

Zeta the dog is a glutton, and eating is something that makes her very happy.

Moreover, eating with his hands reminded Gray of a country called Tianzhu in his previous life.

Zeta the dog finished his food in no time, his starry eyes still wide open.

"Boss, another bowl, please!"

It's clear that Zeta has a good appetite today.

"I will take you there."

Number 0233, being pragmatic, quickly said, "Lord Shadow, Lord Zeta, this way please."

Accompanied by the young rabbit-like Emily, Gray, led by Number 0233, arrived at the Shadow Court's stronghold in Howling Town.

The waiters inside the base reacted exactly the same way as 0233 when they saw Gray appear.

Gray had a headache.

It's understandable that someone who is usually easygoing would feel uncomfortable being treated with all sorts of formalities and respect.

He only occasionally acts aloof and domineering to show off, and it seems that most waiters only remember this image of him.

Despite the discomfort, interaction with the servants was unavoidable.

By the way, number 0233 has already called the kitchen to prepare the meal, and Zeta the dog's attention is entirely focused on the kitchen.

"Give me a report on the situation at the Demon Order's Lust and Pleasure faction's stronghold here." Although he had a bit of a headache, Gray maintained his aloof and domineering image.

The one who spoke was number 0233.

"The exact location of the stronghold of the lust and pleasure faction has been identified."

There, followers of the Lust and Pleasure sect often engage in lewd activities.

They would capture male and female demi-humans and brainwash them so that they could be used as tools to vent their lust.

There are reports that succubi often participate in the activities here.

Followers of the Lust and Pleasure faction, regardless of their social status, from ordinary members to bishops, participate in this lewd activity.

If a surprise attack can be launched on the stronghold during the event, it will definitely reduce the strength of the Lust and Pleasure faction significantly.

We don't have enough manpower to wipe them out completely, and more importantly, it might cause the bishops of the Lust and Pleasure faction to escape, so we didn't make any rash moves to avoid alerting them.

The purpose of requesting reinforcements was precisely to ensure the complete annihilation of the enemy.

Succubi are demons worshipped by the Lust and Pleasure faction, and are the retinue of Rast, the demon of Lust and Pleasure.

They are an evil species whose entire race consists of women, who rely on sexual intercourse with humanoid beings to drain their life force and enhance themselves.

Most succubi are depicted as beautiful women with stunning figures, and they have a small tail with a heart on its back.

With their exquisite looks and figures, and their ability to seduce people's minds, they devour the creatures they have seduced, leaving them exhausted and dead.

Most succubi are sealed in the Netherworld Prison along with Rast, the demon of lust and pleasure, but a small number have escaped or been summoned through cult rituals.

To die under the peonies is to be a ghost.

It's safe to say that most men would lose control and shout "I do!" when faced with a succubus.

This leads to succubi causing significant disruption to the sex ratio of humanoid beings, resulting in the decline of the entire race.

Therefore, the Church of Holy Light has been waging a massive manhunt for succubi, far more so than for vampires, and frequently publicizing the dangers of succubi.

Gray agrees with this, but he doesn't know how many people will actually listen...
