Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Angels and Demons? The Second Demon King's Army Arrives at the Elf King's Court!

Before the main gate of the Elven Court.

As the morning sun rose, a group of five uniquely beautiful young women came to visit.

The young women, who didn't look like elves at all, were immediately greeted by several Elf Soldiers.

"Stop right there, this is..."

Before the Elf Soldiers could finish their inquiry, a petite loli, with red hair and two horns on her head, puffed out her chest and stepped forward.

She also wore a black eye patch over her right eye, looking incredibly cute.

"The Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad, entrusted by the Adventurers' Guild's Doragon branch, has come to explore the secrets of the Elven Court!"

"..."

That blunt?

"Idiot!"

The white-robed woman behind the loli rushed forward angrily, her iron fist mercilessly striking the loli's head.

"We're on a secret mission! How can you announce who we are right away!"

"Hmph!"

The loli tilted her head.

"My knightly spirit does not allow me to act like a sneaky villain!"

"Damn it! You're a rogue, why are you always pursuing chivalry!"

"What law on the Aetherium Continent states that a rogue cannot have a knightly spirit! Pursuing justice should be the duty of every conscious being!"

The quiet city gate fell into chaos.

Taking this opportunity, the Elf Soldiers began to discreetly observe these five oddities.

The Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad... that name sounds familiar.

The one talking to the young woman, though her expression was now exaggerated and constantly giving the impression of low intelligence, still exuded a remarkably holy aura.

Especially... the halo above her head and the pure white wings on her back; despite her holy appearance, her white nun's robe was stretched rather suggestively by her shameful figure.

An Archangel?

The Elf Soldier's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the others behind her. This time, his legs began to tremble.

One woman was completely shrouded in a black robe, her face obscured, only revealing a figure as excellent as the Archangel's, holding a book of rituals.

A quiet, black-haired young woman held a sketchbook, completely immersed in art, occasionally looking up at herself and her companions.

But her fervent gaze completely clashed with her serene face.

As for the last silver-haired loli... the Elf Soldier could only say that the last loli with such an unreasonable figure was Her Majesty the Queen.

She wore tattered silver armor, her face was a bit chubby, a thick silver Dragon tail swayed back and forth, kicking up clouds of dust, and she had two small Dragon horns on her head.

She was looking down, pitifully counting a few gold coins in her small, meaty hands.

Her tragic appearance truly made listeners sad and onlookers weep.

Could it really be... don't tell me it's that unlucky!

"Um..."

After a long pause, the Elf Soldier couldn't help but interrupt:

"Are you here on Doragon's behalf to spy on the secrets of our Elven Kingdom?"

The Archangel was silent for a moment, then angrily turned to the horned loli.

"Lulu! It's all your fault! We're exposed! Now we can't get in!"

The Elf Soldier wanted to say that even if the red-haired loli named Lulu hadn't spoken, they couldn't just let this group of strange people enter.

Did Doragon really think that such oddities could uncover the secrets of the Elven Kingdom?

Was he underestimating their Elven Kingdom too much?

"In any case..."

The Elf Soldier's expression was a bit stiff.

"Humans are not allowed to enter the Elven Court for the time being. Please leave."

Hearing this, the Archangel looked at the Elf Soldier with a bitter expression.

"Are you being discriminatory?"

"No, it's just due to some state secrets and recent court policies. We hope for your understanding."

"Then there's no problem! Hehe..."

The Archangel proudly lifted her delicate face.

"We are precisely here to uncover your state secrets, and coincidentally, none of us are human!"

"...Captain, on the Aetherium Continent, saying that is an insult and does not align with knightly spirit."

"But we're not human anyway, what does insulting people have to do with this Archangel?"

"Lulu, the idiotic Archangel makes a lot of sense..."

The Elf Soldier felt that staying with these people for too long might affect his intelligence. In his hesitation, a companion whispered something in his ear.

The Elf Soldier nodded with a complex expression.

"In that case, please come over here to register: name, race, profession."

"Huh? Your Elven Kingdom really has a lot of rules."

The Archangel looked displeased and led the four forward.

"Tashiniya Palmica! An Archangel from the Celestial Realm, a magic user, and also the captain of the Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad!"

"Lulu! A demon from the Gustik Holy Empire Dungeon, a rogue by profession! Vice-captain of the Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad!"

"Weini, a witch from the artistic Olyana Kingdom, a potion master by profession. Also... young man, do you need me to draw you some supreme art?"

A witch from the Olyana Kingdom?

The Elf Soldier's heart trembled, and he looked up in fear.

Could it be... the legendary witch who specialized only in drawing erotic art, and particularly loved drawing 'fujoshi' art, known as the 'Heretic of Art' by the Olyana Kingdom?

And she was just staring at him and his companion... "Please, absolutely not! I beg you!"

The Elf Soldier was drenched in cold sweat, wishing he could sprout wings and fly away.

"Tsk... another Philistine who doesn't understand art!"

The Elf Soldier ignored Weini's complaint and looked at the remaining two.

"Um..."

The Dragon girl whispered softly.

"I am... I am An Duo Alfie, a Dragon, and my profession is... a warrior."

Another important figure... The Elf Soldier was a bit worried. It was now pretty much confirmed that these people were the oddities known as the 'Second Demon Lord Army' by the Adventurers' Guild.

If that was the case, then the last one must be... "Deconis, a Lich, a priest by profession."

Indeed!

The only masochistic Lich on the entire Aetherium Continent who had become a priest!

Why had these troublesome people come to the Elven Kingdom?

The Elven Court wouldn't explode, would it?

Should he take a leave of absence and leave the Elven Court for a while?

If not, going to the front lines to fight Doragon would also be acceptable!

Dying on the battlefield was much better than a mysterious social death!

"Hey! Can we go in now?"

Tashiniya stared intently at the Elf Soldier, her eyes glowing with intelligent blue light.

"I have a feeling you seem very afraid of us?"

"Not at all!"

Cold sweat soaked his armor, and the Elf Soldier forced a smile.

"Lady Tashiniya, you may all enter. Also... please strictly adhere to the laws of the Elven Kingdom and refrain from any extreme behavior."

"Please rest assured, Mr. Elf Soldier!"

Lulu patted her flat chest with a serious expression.

"As a rogue who embodies the knightly spirit of the demon race, I will strictly restrain my companions!"

That statement sounds very unconvincing!

Your potion residue still causes the citizens of the capital of the Lucania Kingdom to occasionally suffer from diarrhea in public!

Watching the Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad swagger into the Elven Court, the Elf Soldier's expression instantly changed.

"Quick! Send word to Her Majesty the Queen, the Second Demon Lord Army has entered the Elven Court! Tell the elders to absolutely guard the water sources, the Royal Palace, and the Ancient Elven Tree!"

These guys, half a year ago, they blew up the Dragon Emperor's throne... Seeing his companion nod seriously in agreement, the Elf Soldier added:

"Also, please help me request from the captain, whether it's to the Doragon front line, or the Magic Beast Mountain Range border defense, or even throwing me into the Orc Empire and Demi-human Alliance war zone!

"As long as I can leave the Elven Court, anywhere is fine!"

Looking at the five figures gradually disappearing into the distance, the Elf Soldier's face was filled with fear.

They were a natural disaster... ---

"Is that so? The Tasiniya Demon Subjugation Squad..."

Inside the Royal Palace, Beixi rubbed her temples, a headache brewing.

Even the explosive magic-using elf who wouldn't bat an eye at attacking Doragon's military base was now intimidated by the arrival of these five.

These people were a genuine, walking, talking natural disaster, bringing chaos wherever they went!

Doragon was truly shameless, resorting to such dirty tactics, and these guys were really idiots, being used as pawns without even realizing it!

Never mind, that's not important. The key now was how to deal with these formidable individuals.

After discovering The End portal yesterday, Su Lin had already taken Hilulele and the others to The End to prepare for Dragon slaying. She was temporarily the only one guarding the Elven Court.

Besides, even if Hilulele and the others returned, they wouldn't be able to handle this group of oddities.

"Damn Doragon, what a despicable tactic!"

Beixi couldn't help but curse, 'War is war, but why would you bring these perverts, who are comparable to a Wither storm, over here?'

After a long while, Beixi asked weakly.

"Where are they now? They haven't entered the main thoroughfare, have they?"

The guard below looked up.

"They're in..."

Before he could finish, a commotion erupted outside the Royal Palace. Screams and shouts were incessant.

It seemed countless people were fleeing, making the ground tremble.

Alright... hope was lost.

The natural disaster had finally descended upon the Elven Court!

Beixi instantly looked as if she had aged countless years, gazing wistfully out the window.

"I really wish I could go hide in the MC Dungeon..."

"I should have known, I would have let that old man Lop guard the house, and I would have gone to The End to farm Ender Pearls..."
