134 Dekan Angers Evans
“We all know that Evans, one of the ten archbishops of the Rebirth Church, the Destruction Archbishop, possesses an ace card, the [Destruction Demon King]. It has always been the great enemy of mankind. However, we have now successfully captured it. You will soon see the [Destruction Demon King] as docile and harmless as a puppy…”
“And we also offer paid services such as taking photos with the creature, engraving messages, and if you have customization requests, you can discuss them with us…”
As the knight spoke, he led the tourists toward the direction of the [Destruction Demon King].
“Mom, when can we see Ice Snow Princess and Brother Dekan?”
As the people quietly listened to the knight’s explanation, a little girl’s voice caught everyone’s attention.
At this distance, the tourists could already clearly see the silhouette of the [Destruction Demon King].
But they still couldn’t make out the figures of the Ice Snow Princess and Dekan.
Besides the evil dragon, the little girl wanted to see the hero.
That’s the perfect fairy tale.
The little girl’s mother apologized profusely to the others, looking quite embarrassed.
At this moment, the knight guide smiled and said:
“I think not just this little sister, everyone is probably eager to get closer for a better look.”
Following the path temporarily barricaded off, the group quickly arrived at an open and spacious wilderness.
They were already very close to the [Destruction Demon King].
“Look over there, the giant beast being restrained motionless is the [Destruction Demon King].”
As he spoke, the knight picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it hard towards the Destruction Demon King, striking it right in the eye.
The Destruction Demon King grunted in pain.
However, it was unable to move, seemingly having given up struggling.
“See, there won’t be any problem.”
“Ah? Can we throw stones too?”
Some tourists were incredulous and exclaimed.
Even at the zoo, you can’t throw stones at animals, right?
Oh wait, the Destruction Demon King probably shouldn’t be compared to kind little animals.
“What if it gets angry?”
Soon, another tourist questioned.
The knight chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. The Destruction Demon King is restrained by the Ice Snow Princess. It cannot move no matter what. Mr. Dekan said to throw with peace of mind.”
“Can we really do that?”
The knight nodded, “Of course, this was personally written by Mr. Dekan.”
Everyone looked in the direction the knight pointed to, and there stood a notice board that read: Stones can be thrown, but please do not feed. Wasting food is shameful, every grain is hard work.
“Besides throwing stones and taking photos, you can also leave your desired message on the trunk of the [Destruction Demon King], such as ‘so-and-so was here.’ Then take pictures as souvenirs. But please note, this is time-limited. The [Destruction Demon King]’s exhibition is temporary, and professional personnel will be required for the aerial engraving work, so there will be additional charges, at 10 gold coins per character.”
“Ten gold coins per character is a bit expensive, and it won’t be preserved anyway.”
“Please understand, it is the legendary [Destruction Demon King]. This opportunity is invaluable; once missed, it’s gone forever. Recording the scene with a magic stone for memories, you can boast about it your whole life.”
As the knight haggled with the tourists, the little girl again pointed at the Destruction Demon King and loudly said:
“Mom, there are already so many words on the [Destruction Demon King]!”
Everyone could see several lines of words carved on the [Destruction Demon King].
For instance, “I reign supreme, proudly above all others, where I, the princess, exist, there is the sky…” and such phrases.
“Oh, wasn’t it said that only the trunk could be inscribed on? Why are there two lines on its forehead?”
Soon a careful tourist noticed there were also two clear large lines on the Destruction Demon King’s forehead.
“Oh, those were written by Mr. Dekan. You can also choose to focus on these in your photograph without extra charges.”
…
Two kilometers away from Tristin City.
After much trouble and in a rather disheveled state, Destruction Archbishop Evans finally managed to shake off the female knight’s pursuit.
Now he was not far from Tristin City.
The speed of the dragon he was riding was far behind that of the [Destruction Demon King].
But he didn’t dare to summon a stronger creature as a mount, because his magical powers were already exhausted.
Every second was unbearable pain and torment for him.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it!”
Evans bellowed in anger, holding his head.
It felt like his hands were close to tearing his scalp off.
If it weren’t for that damnable Dekan…
He would never have ended up in such a situation!
Not only risking his life to come to Tristin City, but also being pursued fiercely by the female knight who he could have casually toyed with before!
What outraged him most was that this female knight actually grew bolder and more aggressive.
Fortunately, everything was about to end.
He would bring a devastating disaster to Tristin City.
Before dishing out punishment to this group of insignificant ants, Evans was within range to initiate a spell and check on the situation of the Destruction Demon King.
After all, acquiring information means gaining the upper edge.
Evans closed his eyes and cast the spell [Perception Share].
This was a nearly essential sixth-tier spell for summoners, allowing him to share any summoned creature’s sight and hearing.
An extremely critical intelligence-gathering skill.
However, this spell had a range limit, being able to connect with summon creatures within only two kilometers.
All the way, Evans had been eagerly looking forward to the current state of Tristin City.
Even though Ice Snow Princess could suppress the Destruction Demon King,
the scene must surely be catastrophic.
Moreover, Dekan and his group would have known that Evans would come.
They would have surely made thorough preparations, guarding against this calamity known as Destruction Archbishop!
Evans eagerly wanted to see how distressed his enemies appeared, on guard and in distress.
Enduring his pain, he connected with the Destruction Demon King’s senses.
However.
The moment he connected with the Destruction Demon King, Evans froze.
“Huh?”
He stood still for five seconds without reacting, even though it was highly costly for his magic to be draining like this.
Is there something wrong with this picture…?
All he saw was a transformed landscape, a theme park.
Or rather, a temporary outdoor zoo of sorts!
It seemed the Destruction Demon King had been turned into a rare animal for public display to the citizens of Tristin City.
There were even citizens taking photos with the Destruction Demon King!
Evans couldn’t help but doubt if he had seen wrong or fallen victim to an illusion!
No! Tristin City couldn’t possibly have an illusionist who could maintain an illusion on an eighth-tier summoned creature!
Besides.
Evans had already sensed something strange when he arrived!
Because looking from afar,
It seemed the outside of Tristin City’s walls had constructions of strange structures, fully lit up!
When he realized the truth, his mind couldn’t help but erupt in a fit of madness.
You’re having a festival?!
Where’s your fear, your vigilance, your panic?!
A grand Destruction Archbishop never should have experienced such an insult!
“You will all pay the price!!! All of you!!! I won’t let a single one of you live!!!”
Evans roared madly, his voice hoarse as if about to spew flames.
If he could control the Destruction Demon King’s will at the moment, he would surely have it go berserk with a suicide attack!
But he couldn’t, nor did he know that the Destruction Demon King was truly unable to move under its restraint.
“No, I can’t let Dekan affect my mentality. I need to gather more intelligence.”
Evans patted his chest, trying hard to calm himself down.
He took a few deep breaths.
Finally, his breathing stabilized slightly.
“Continue to gather more intelligence.”
Evans calmly observed the surroundings again.
However.
He then discovered a large mirror hanging high in the distance in front of the Destruction Demon King?
Seemingly, it was put there for the Destruction Demon King to clearly see the situation from all angles.
Evans watched through the Destruction Demon King’s eyes, gradually furrowing his brow.
He saw…
People were actually carving messages on the Destruction Demon King?
Not only taking pictures, but you’re actually carving messages too??
Evans felt an urge to vomit, almost spitting something out.
His body swayed slightly; it wasn’t clear if it was from excessive magic consumption or from his anger taking its toll.
“No, I cannot be provoked. This is Dekan’s scheme.”
As Evans tried to suppress his anger and adjust his mindset,
He accidentally noticed something.
Very prominent.
In the mirror.
There were two strong, large lines boldly written on the Destruction Demon King’s forehead ——
“Chief’s brilliant strategy covers the world, losing wife and troops.”
“Pfft!!!”
Evans spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
He covered his chest and fell to his knees.
“Dekan!!!”
Evans howled to the heavens, his voice ear-piercing.
He could no longer endure this underworld of a world orchestrated by Dekan.
