Kaia and his group of four arrived in the Demon Realm, landing in front of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons. "Let's go! We'll get answers inside!" Kaia led everyone through the door.Deep within the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, Emperor Ba murmured, "Hmm? What brings them here?" The hall no longer had traps or mechanisms, so the group quickly reached the Demon King's chamber. Kaia shattered the massive door with his holy sword, and they stormed in. "Where's Emperor Ba? Tell him to show himself!" Kaia roared."Impertinent fools, what's your purpose here?" Emperor Ba said calmly from his throne. "I'll ask you directly: Did you send someone to assassinate the king and queen of Tianlai Holy last night?" Kaia demanded. "I know nothing of what you speak, but barging into my palace so rudely won't go unpunished," Emperor Ba replied, standing and slowly approaching."Let's go, darling," I said, taking Enis's hand as we teleported toward the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons."Greetings, Emperor Ba. Here's the situation: Last night, someone infiltrated the palace, assassinated the king and queen, and left a note claiming it was your doing. We've come to verify," Emily said to Emperor Ba. "Hmph, such childish tricks are beneath me. If you insist on pinning this on me, so be it," Emperor Ba responded with disdain."We're here, darling," I said as we suddenly appeared before everyone. They all looked at us in surprise. "What, you two joining the commotion?" Emperor Ba asked, glancing at us. "It's been a while, Father-in-law. Enis and I sensed humans arriving, so we came to check," I replied. "Hmph, you got the title right this time. As you can see, these naive folks were lured here by a trick," Emperor Ba said, eyeing them sideways. "You're White! Like us, a reincarnator! We haven't thanked you for saving the world last time!" Emily exclaimed upon seeing me."Let's not dwell on old matters. So, what brings you here?" I asked her. Emily explained the situation to Enis and me. "I see. I understand the gist of it. I believe Emperor Ba isn't responsible—not because he's my father-in-law, but because I know his character from our time together," I said in his defense. "How about this? I'll go back to the human realm with you. I can use my divine magic to trace the culprit," I added."That's great! I apologize for my earlier recklessness," Kaia said, bowing to Emperor Ba. "Fine, for their sake, I won't pursue this further," Emperor Ba said, turning to leave. "Come, everyone, hold hands in a circle. I'll take us back to the human realm," I instructed. "Can you really return without magic?" Emily questioned. "Magic's nothing. I'm using divine magic now," I said with a proud smile. Everyone held hands, and I used divine magic to teleport us to the human realm.In an instant, we arrived in front of Tianlai Holy's palace. "Incredible! No incantations needed!" Emily marveled. "It's nothing. Enis can do it too, though she uses magic teleportation," I said. Looking at Enis, once a formidable enemy now turned ally, the heroes felt a mix of emotions. But there was no time for chatter; everyone hurried to the king's chamber.Entering the royal chamber, we were shocked by the gruesome scene. The brutal methods seemed like demonic work, yet it was hard to suspect Emperor Ba. "I'm going to use time-reversal magic to view the past. Everyone, step back," I said, motioning them away. I activated my divine magic to rewind the room's timeline. The room's projection showed time flowing backward, revealing last night's events. A masked figure in black slipped in and assassinated the pair, but their face was obscured. I ended the spell, and the room returned to normal. "Who was that?" Judo asked. Enis sensed lingering demonic energy. "This aura… it feels like Mino," she said suddenly. "Are you sure?" I asked. "I'm certain. I've known him for millennia; I recognize his aura," Enis replied. "Hmm, it seems he's the likely suspect. But why would he do this?" I pondered. "Mino , the advisor by the Demon King's side?" Sissy asked. "Exactly, Emperor Ba's confidant," Enis confirmed. "Darling, revive the king and queen first. Resurrection is your specialty," I said to Enis. Sidoris stepped forward, pleading, "Please save my father and mother!" "Alright, as my husband says," Enis replied, chanting a spell and casting resurrection magic on the bodies. A magical light flashed, their wounds healed, and King Jothua and Queen Bijie slowly awoke. "Father! Mother!" Sidoris cried, embracing them. "Incredible! Casting high-tier resurrection magic alone!" Emily said in awe. "Thank you so much!" Kaia said, gripping my hand tightly. "Just reincarnators looking out for each other," I replied with a smile. "I can now travel freely between Earth and here. If you ever need to go back, find me," I added. "That's amazing! I'm Sissy, nice to meet you!" Sissy said with a smile, seeming to take a liking to White. "Where are we?" King Jothua, just revived, was still disoriented. Emily explained everything to them. "I see. Thank you both for saving our lives," King Jothua said, bowing to us. "He's the true savior of this world!" Sissy chimed in. "You're the savior Kaia spoke of! Forgive my rudeness, please accept my gratitude!" King Jothua began to kneel, but I quickly helped him up. "No need for formalities, Your Majesty. Like the heroes, I'm just fulfilling my duty. Let's save the reminiscing for later—we need to return to the Demon Realm to catch the culprit," I said, as we prepared to depart.
