Devil [GL]

"Iris, long time no see, I didn't expect to see you here."

Seeing that Bai Wanwan looked exactly like Iris, Bruno hurried to her side and greeted her.

At this moment, Bruno's skin is darker than Bai Guanwan's impression, and his hair is also frizzy, not as delicate as before.His back was straight, and his movements were imperceptibly agile. He was completely different from the lazy young master before, and Bai Wanwan didn't recognize him for a while.

"Bruno? You're Bruno? You've changed a lot."

Bai Wanwan opened her eyes wide in surprise and looked Bruno up and down, but felt a little awkward looking at the young master.

"Didn't I miss you in the court before, my grandfather put me in the army for several months of training." Sensing Bai Wanwan's surprise, he smiled and said, "It's actually pretty good, I used to be too delicate, lazy and useless, but now I am a mid-level fighter, and I have made military achievements in the last two wars."

Seeing his appearance, Bai Wanwan couldn't help but nodded, thinking of Bruno's previous cowardice.

He had helped himself before, allowing Metvia to be successfully taken away by him, and Bai Wanwan always kept this kindness in his heart.Although he didn't say anything, Bai Wanwan also knew that when Metvia was rescued by him at that time, the Post family in charge of the Knights would definitely be severely punished by the emperor, and for Bruno, who was in charge, the punishment would be severe but not light .

Seeing that the young master who was originally as delicate as a girl has now become a big man in the army, Bai Wanguan's mouth moved, and the guilt in his heart couldn't help but well up.

"I'm sorry..." she whispered, "It was because of us that you suffered."

At that time, she only focused on Metvia, and had no time to worry about what might happen to Bruno in the future.

Hearing what she said, Bruno quickly waved his hands.

"It's okay. I actually wanted to rescue Miss Percival. The Post family had received her favor before. If it wasn't for her help, I would have died at the hands of the demons."

He scratched his head nonchalantly, and comforted Bai Wanwan with some embarrassment: "By the way, Iris, how did you appear here? Is Miss Percival also nearby?"

When Bai Wanwan heard him mention Metvia, her expression lost a lot in an instant.

She shook her head and put the topic aside: "She is indeed here, but she is currently doing a very important thing... Also, you can call me 'Bai Wanwan' from now on, I changed my name."

Bruno saw that she didn't seem to want to mention Metvia, so he didn't talk much, but followed her words and said: "That's okay, Bai, Wan, Wan?"

"Yes, that's what it's called."

Bai Wanwan heard him pronounce this weird name clumsily, and remembered how Metvia practiced saying her own name before, and couldn't help laughing.

But after she finished speaking, she blinked and thought of the task Metvia had arranged for her before.

"Bruno, do you know where the auction house is? Metvia asked me to help her buy a staff. I don't know much about this place, and I don't know the way very well."

Hearing what she said, Bruno nodded, "I've been here for almost a week. If you don't know the way, I'll take you there."

When he thought of something, he grinned at Bai Wanwan, and at the same time told him in a low voice: "I came here with brothers from other armies for some war secrets, please don't take me as a member of the Werther Empire." Say it leaked out."

When Bai Wanwan heard the words, she immediately shut up and nodded seriously.

She remembered that before she rescued Metvia and escaped from the Werther Empire, the king of the West Desolate Kingdom tore apart his face with the king of the empire, not to mention the dissolution of the covenant, and even fought two small wars. Now, after many months, The two countries can be regarded as completely hostile.

In this way, Bruno, who was an imperial soldier, suddenly came to the border of the Western Wilderness Kingdom. He must have complied with some requirements and came secretly to carry out the mission.

Seeing that Bai Wanwan could understand what he meant, Bruno didn't say much on the street, and the two quickly walked towards the auction house.

The town where they are currently located is relatively remote, and many buildings on the street look very simple, with a weather-beaten and dilapidated feeling.Among these buildings, the auction house can barely be regarded as a newer and better place.

Looking at this place, Bai Wanwan thought about what the middle-aged woman on the road said before, and felt a little complicated for a while.

This place... really can only buy a better staff at the auction house.

"The auction house is here," Bruno said. "My comrade-in-arms and I live in a hotel near the auction house. If you need any help these days, you can find me nearby."

Bai Wanwan nodded.

She turned her eyes to the auction house, paused for a moment, and then returned to Bruno.

If she needed any help, it was to help Metvia...

Thinking of something, Bai Wanwan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Bruno, when I come out of the auction house, can you accompany me to a place?"

She may not be able to help Metvia alone, but if Bruno is added, she may be able to.

-

"I've been waiting for you to make a move for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be so impatient."

On the other hand, in a small hotel room, the Demon Lord spoke slowly.

His eyes watched Metvia on the ground with great interest, as if observing something interesting.

"Your weapon is a dagger, you didn't use drugs, and you assassinated me in front of my two subordinates. You are not a magician, and you have no accomplices..."

As he spoke, he casually played with the dagger he had snatched from Metvia.His deep black eyes swept across Metvia without leaving a trace, and his tone was slow and meaningful.

"You said, would a real assassin be so perfunctory?"

Metvia heard his words, her body was still stiff, but her fingers could not help shrinking.

But facing the devil's question, she pursed her lips and lowered her head, without saying a word, expressing her resistance with silence.

At this time, she was being suppressed by a demon saint on the ground, her hair was scattered, and her clothes became messy due to the battle.

She was seriously injured, her abdomen was hit hard by the devil just now, her legs were also kicked by the devil, and she could feel the pain from her body when she breathed.The only thing that was better was that the bamboo hat on her head was not taken off, probably because the Demon King was not interested in her true face.

Metvia is unwilling to let the devil find out that she is a human race, and the devil has seen her staff before. If she uses magic, she will probably be recognized by the devil as Metvia, so she finally chooses a dagger to assassinate .

Just now, after she sat down next to the Demon King, she found a topic, took advantage of the gap when the Demon King was distracted while speaking, and directly stabbed the Demon King's neck with the dagger.

It's just that she still overestimated her physical combat ability as a magician, and underestimated the IQ of the devil.Almost without struggling, she was knocked down by the demon saint who had been guarding beside the demon king, and she was pressed to the ground without any ability to resist.

Even if she really used all her strength to assassinate, but after the Demon King described it, her behavior just now seemed like a joke.

Fortunately, she always thinks of many aspects before doing things, and she also takes this situation into consideration.

"Don't talk..."

The devil looked at Metvia, who was silent like a gourd, and didn't feel a headache, but became more and more interested.

He put the dagger on the table beside him, clapped his hands together, as if thinking of something interesting, said with a light smile.

"Then let me help you analyze the situation, how about?"

Metvia lowered her head, still not speaking.

But in her heart, she could vaguely guess what the devil would say next.

"Let's think about it, that idiot Meng Taiweisi recommended you to me at first, saying that you came from an old family in the deep mountains, and most of those families were anonymous and hard to find. This shows that your origin is my I can't find it...or I can't find it temporarily."

That's right.Metvia chose this identity at the beginning because he and Bai Wanwan had never been in the Demon Race before, and their origins were unknown, so it was not easy for Meng Taiwei to find out their identity.

There are also such hidden families in the human race who live in the mountains and have nothing to do with the secular world. In addition, the strength of Metvia and Bai Wanwan is very abrupt among ordinary demons. It is too unreasonable to find no trace , so she chose such a background.

"Although your strength is not as great as I imagined, even considered vulnerable, but since you can cover that idiot Meng Taiweisi, then you must have a little bit of ability... This shows that, For some reason, you didn't show your original strength when you just assassinated me."

Hearing this, Metvia shivered just right, giving the Demon King the illusion that she was shocked.

She did not use magic on him because she was afraid of being discovered by the devil, but she didn't know if the devil could think of it.

But the Demon King lived up to expectations and thought of many possibilities.

"Is it because you were injured that you couldn't use it? Or is it because your skills are special, and once you use them, it's easy for me to discover your true identity? Or, in fact, you don't want to assassinate me at all?"

The Demon King was talking while pacing beside her.

His expression seemed to be relaxed, but his eyes had been staring at Metvia on the ground without leaving a trace, as long as she made a little movement, he would be caught in his eyes.

"It may also be because you don't have much ability, but you just used some means to bluff in front of Meng Taiweisi, making him mistakenly think that you are very powerful... But if this is the case, you probably won't agree to come with me Find the demon god to inherit it."

The Demon King needs a powerful person like her to help him in the inheritance. If Metvia's strength shrinks, she will die in the inheritance without him taking action.

So after thinking for a while, the Demon King finally denied the possibility that Metvia was not strong.

Metvia listened to his words, but never responded, and refused to say a word.

Maybe it was because he was bored, or maybe it was because Metvia didn't move much, which made him lose much fun of analysis. After saying that, the Demon King sighed.

"It's really boring, then I'll skip this level and talk about the most critical point directly," he said, "Your assassination was hasty, you didn't have any preparations, and your strength can't be shown in front of me, so why do you want to kill me?" Assassinate me?"

"Is there any urgent matter that makes you have to attack me in advance?"

He was absolutely right.

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Metvia would almost stand up and applaud him.

Metvia was a little surprised that the Demon King could think of this, but his reaction was also within her expectation.

After all, when Metvia first decided to assassinate, he never thought that he could successfully kill the Demon King.She had already thought about what the devil would do and what he would think after being defeated by the devil.

Now the Demon King has analyzed her situation to the same extent, and they are all things she has prepared for a long time ago, not to mention, there is one point that the Demon King will never be able to figure out.

Thinking of this, Metvia finally made some moves.

She raised her head reluctantly, and sneered at the Demon King with a hoarse voice: "You are very smart, you are right, that's it, but what is my purpose and why I want to attack you, can you guess it?"

She intentionally made her tone look a bit contemptuous, in an attempt to stimulate the Demon King's emotions.

"Oh? That's good."

Sensing her conceited state of disapproval, the Demon King laughed and said.

"Take your initial behavior as an example. A few days ago, you took a woman with black hair and black eyes that I had been looking for for a long time to find Montewis. Although you didn't name me to see me, it was obvious that You two should be coming for me, even if it's not for me, your ultimate goal must be related to me."

"I really can't find out your background, but what is certain is that you will not be from the old devil's side, because if the old devil and his people have a ready-made black-haired and black-eyed person, they must have already taken it out She has been promoted to be the reincarnation of a demon god, so they can't go so far as to send her to me."

"You will not be from the family, because the family hates my humble existence more than the old devil's staff... If they really found a woman with black hair and black eyes, their first choice would be It just killed her."

Whether it is the old devil king or the devil king, they both urgently need a person with black hair and black eyes to pretend to be the reincarnation of the devil god. Once such a person appears, one of them will definitely benefit.

The aristocrats who hate the devil, don't like the old devil's staff, and don't need black-haired and black-eyed people to consolidate their power, in order not to let the old devil and the current devil benefit from it, after weighing, they will definitely choose to kill the black-haired black eyes.

"If I'm right, you shouldn't have much hostility towards me at first. At the very least, your purpose should not be related to assassinating me, and it may still be beneficial to me."

"You only learned about the inheritance of the demon god from him after you had been in contact with Meng Taiweisi for a few days. I am very confident in this point. Even the real reincarnation of the demon god may not necessarily know where the inheritance is, so, Your purpose has nothing to do with inheritance."

"In the end, you are very capable but have no background or fame. I guess you, like me, are a low-level Demon Race. Your purpose at the beginning was probably to take advantage of my position to sneak into the high-level circle of Demon Race, right?"

Hearing the Demon King's words, Metvia deliberately moved her body and made a slightly disturbed gesture, as if the Demon King had already guessed her true purpose.

It's just that no one knew, but after the Demon King said those words, her heart, which had been restless, completely calmed down.

Because of their purpose, they had nothing to do with the Demon King from the start.

She really thought about using the power of the Demon King to successfully infiltrate the high-level circle of the Demon Race, but the Demon King guessed wrong about the essential motive for doing so.

Bai Wanwan is the person she likes and her future wife. She has no intention of giving Bai Wanwan to the Demon King at all. Even if she gets mixed up in the high-level circle, Metvia does not intend to stand in the Demon King's camp.

The Demon King felt that she was trying to curry favor with him, and he felt that she appeared in order to gain a position under his command, but this was actually wrong.

This is why Metvia finally dared to attack the Demon King after thinking a lot.Because no matter what the devil thinks, he probably would not have imagined that Bai Wanwan is not her servant at all, and she has no intention of approaching him.

The ultimate goal of the two of them actually had nothing to do with him, and she planned this assassination to confuse the Demon King and make him think that he was their goal.

As long as the Demon King guesses this wrong, no matter how close to reality and logical his guesses are, he will never be able to guess Metvia's real purpose.

From then on, in the heart of the Demon King, she will only be a fixed impression of a low-level Demon Race, and she can no longer be related to the Human Race.

In this move, she was still on the right track.
