Idle game leads to another world
Chapter 318: All-out retreat
When Aldai and the three of them were still adventuring in the sewers, they were far away in the capital of the Demonic Kingdom of Subia.
In the royal palace, in the audience room, Isaac knelt down on one knee.
After leading the defeated army back to the open city, Isaac immediately threw away the large army, changed his horses to griffins, and rushed back to the capital of the Demonic Kingdom of Subia as quickly as possible.
It's not because he is greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he wants to fulfill his grandfather's last wish before his death.
"Is that so? My tiger has left..."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On the throne, the demon king Samantha Subia, who looked about forty or fifty, was supporting her forehead with her hands, with an expression of regret and loneliness on her face.
The existence of Kingdom Tiger is not only a battle-experienced general, but also a hero and a role model.
The Subia Demon Kingdom's military strength was originally the weakest among the surrounding demon kingdoms. It was once beaten by other demon kingdoms, including the Avarus Demon Kingdom, to the point of ceding territory and paying compensation.
And the one who reversed all this was the Kingdom Tigers.
With his superb command skills and fearless courage, he brought a weak military country to the same level as other demonic kingdoms. He is a hero praised by the people.
But now the hero has fallen, on a foreign soil.
This day will come sooner or later, and Demon King Samantha has long been mentally prepared. If this joint military operation had not been so important, he would not have sent out the octogenarian Tiger of the Kingdom.
He wanted to expand his territory and take the lead among the coalition forces. Perhaps it was the arrogance of the Subia family that finally pushed the Kingdom Tiger to this point.
"Father, I propose that the Tiger of the Kingdom be given a state funeral."
Under his left hand, two young people, a man and a woman, were sitting, respectively the son and daughter of Demon King Samantha.
The one who just spoke was Princess Flavia.
She has soft long light pink hair, two round little horns poking on both sides of her head, and a face with a little baby fat that can very much inspire men's protective desire.
But this princess is not a light-hearted person. She has been competing with her brother Olafur for the right to inherit the throne.
Female devils are not particularly rare, but for the sake of future generations, men have a higher probability of becoming devils.
After all, women need to be pregnant for ten months to have offspring, while men only need to cast a wide net.
Usually, the opportunity for a female devil to be born occurs only when the male heir is far less talented than the female heir, but Flavia's brother Olafur is not that bad.
The overt and covert fighting between the two people has almost become public in the palace, but the common people outside do not know this yet.
"Isaac, your grandfather devoted himself to the kingdom. He fought until the last moment. As the 22nd generation Demon King of Subia Demon Kingdom, I promise you that his achievements will never be forgotten."
When Isaac heard this, he raised his head, tears already wet his face. He quickly lowered his head and replied:
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
If someone else burst into tears in front of the throne, Samantha would think it was acting, but she knew Isaac very well. There were many things about him that looked like the Tiger of the Kingdom, especially the fact that his emotional expressions were never artificial. .
But just when the monarch and his ministers were getting along, a voice intervened at an inappropriate time:
"Father, what should I do when the city opens?"
The person who spoke was Prince Olafur. He had never experienced being bullied by the Demon Kingdom of Subia. For the death of the Kingdom Tiger, he only regretted the loss of a strong general and did not have much emotion.
He has the same long pink hair as his sister, and has many similarities in his face, making this prince somewhat feminine. The only difference is that the horns on his head are much larger than his sister's.
"I think we should go all out to defend now and send a message to the other three countries, inviting them to surround Princess Viola together and completely eliminate the possibility of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus regaining its kingdom."
That's true, but saying it at this time is very uninteresting.
Demon King Samantha said nonchalantly:
"There are 20,000 defenders in the open city, and more than 100,000 defeated troops. There are also solid fortifications. Viola's small force alone is nothing to be afraid of. There should be no problem."
Prince Olafur still wanted to fight for it, but seeing that his father was already a little unhappy, he wisely shut up.
"I have lost the tiger, Isaac. I hope you can become the new tiger. As the devil, I order you to go back and have a good rest. I still need you to serve the country."
Seeing this, he had already planned to end the meeting. Although he was defeated, Demon King Samantha did not say a harsh word.
This is the prestige of the Tiger of the Kingdom. If it were anyone else, they would be executed even if they survived.
But at this time, Isaac said:
"Thank you for your majesty's love, but before I left, grandpa said that I need to report to your majesty if anything happens."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Isaac wiped away his tears and looked at the guards around him.
Samantha immediately understood:
"You stand down for the time being and don't allow anyone to come in until you get my order."
The guards standing on both sides walked out of the audience room with neat steps without saying a word, sealing the door to prevent anyone from entering.
"Flavia, please go out too."
"yes."
Asking Flavia to go out but not asking Olafur to go out also shows that in Samantha's heart, the proportion of her son as the heir is greater than that of her daughter.
Flavia also knew this very well. Samantha was not a wise king, but she was not a fool either. It was true that Flavia was very popular with him, but it did not mean that he thought Flavia could be the queen.
Flavia was of course unwilling to do so, but now she had no choice but to nod obediently and leave through the main entrance.
After the door closed, Isaac knelt on the ground and said:
"Grandpa paid the price with his life just to prove one thing. The Demon King God has returned."
"What did you say!"
Samantha, who was originally a little lazy, suddenly stood up from the throne. Even Olafur and the narrator Isaac who were next to her were quite surprised by this.
Demon King Samantha has always looked careless, and has never been so excited as now.
"My grandfather told me before he died that Princess Viola released the Demon King God. I don't know how she did it, but the legend is no longer just a legend, He has become a reality."
"This is impossible, Demon King God, how could it be possible..."
Samantha panicked, and Isaac added:
"Your Majesty, the fact that our army will be defeated is proof of that. That night there was an unexplainable poisonous rain in the sky. Flames fell with poisonous fire. Frogs would inexplicably fall from the sky. The exploding flesh and blood made the soldiers turn into corpses in pain. A pile of mud."
"Is it possible that some powerful mage is up to something?"
Isaac shook his head:
"The magicians in the army have carefully identified it, and they did not find any traces of magic manipulation. However, the priests felt the powerful divinity, and the only possibility was divine punishment."
"What else did your grandfather say?"
"Grandpa said that what we have to face is no longer a princess who is cornered, but a powerful god, a tyrant who will never allow any voice of resistance."
Samantha sat slumped on the throne, as if he had aged several years in an instant.
"Father?"
Olafur had also heard of the legend of the Demon King, but it was just a legend.
Just like the popular Sun Dasheng in Journey to the West, no one will take it seriously.
But Samantha's reaction was as if she already knew that the Demon King God existed, but she just didn't believe that He had actually returned.
After a while, Samantha regained her energy:
"Immediately send someone to deliver a message to Kaikai City, requiring all troops to withdraw in an orderly manner and return to the domestic fortress to garrison."
"Doing this is equivalent to giving the city of Open City to Viola. Father, what are you talking about?"
"idiot!"
Samantha suddenly flew into a rage:
"This is no longer a problem that the army can solve. Return all the territory of Avarus. Immediately notify the temple in the city and ask them if the gods have responded. We can only rely on other gods to fight against the devil. God!"
His voice was sharp and even trembling, as if he had foreseen an extremely terrifying scene, like the last desperate sigh of a dying person...
