Chapter 381: Chapter 247: Asina Nears Death (4)_2

"I felt like my research was already quite impressive, but that damned Nage was still nitpicking and not satisfied, so I shot back at him..."

"The erosion caused by the magic potion is very strong, and the pain of transformation is greatly exaggerated. No demon, no matter how strong-willed, can withstand it; their consciousness will become somewhat maddened. To fully endure the effects of the magic potion, unless you find a dead person..."

Shaye’s tone became smug again, "Hmph, that guy was probably intimidated by my aura. He was stunned for a moment, thought I made a lot of sense, apologized, and left with my research report."

Strength, agility, wisdom, defense...

What on earth does the Demon King want to do? Is he really just preparing to create a batch of battle machines?

Qin Chu fell into contemplation, always feeling that things couldn’t be that simple.

In the conflict between demons and humans, the demons already have the upper hand. The Demon King Nage doesn’t need the hassle of creating battle machines; if he took action himself, the humans now wouldn’t be able to resist at all.

What on earth does the Demon King want to do?

During the first week, I basically fought the Demon King upon meeting. I really didn’t understand much about these issues.

If you can’t figure it out, don’t think about it for now; this was one of Qin Chu’s virtues. If it came down to it, he could just find a time to stealthily infiltrate the Demon King Palace and find out.

The most important thing now was to immediately return to camp. Angelica and Antasia should almost be unable to hold on by now.

Although having Violet there to hold the fort, with the Hero missing for so long, it would inevitably raise some suspicions. As for the sudden appearance of Helois and Iyeta, Qin Chu hadn’t thought about how to explain them at all.

Do I need to explain?

After confirming his location and coordinates, Qin Chu once again unfolded a magic scroll, and when he appeared again, he was safely inside the tent.

At this moment, the people inside the tent were indeed Angelica and Antasia.

Seeing an additional figure suddenly appear in the tent, the two girls subconsciously prepared for battle, until they saw that it was Qin Chu, at which point they breathed a sigh of relief.

They vaguely felt that Qin Chu seemed a bit more charming than before, but in their hearts, their beloved was already very charming, so they weren’t too surprised.

However... they quickly noticed Helois and Iyeta by Qin Chu’s side.

Two beautiful girls, both with a look of helplessness in their eyes.

As expected, the Hero brought back girls from his trip, and this time, two at once.

Because Helois and Iyeta looked so much like humans, Angelica and Antasia didn’t even recognize the two as demons.

Antasia even courteously curtsied to Helois and Iyeta, "What are your names, sisters?"

Demons don’t have so many formalities. Seeing Antasia curtsy, even though Helois and Iyeta were strong, they were somewhat flustered and, imitating Angelica’s motions, lifted their skirts in an awkward curtsy, feeling especially clumsy.

"Helois..."

"Iyeta."

Just arrived in the human world, the two powerful demons were somewhat nervous.

"Sisters Helois and Iyeta?" Antasia didn’t mock the girls for their awkward manners but simply smiled slightly. She didn’t know that these two demons were much older than her – they just looked very young, so in reality, she was the younger sister.

"How did Qin Chu deceive you into coming here?"

Look at the way she’s talking, what’s with ’deceive’? Couldn’t she use a nicer adjective? Like ’persuade’?

"Eh? Are you referring to Master Qin Chu? He didn’t deceive us," Helois responded, somewhat bewildered.

Master?

This title made Antasia raise an eyebrow and give Qin Chu a sideways glance. This Hero, he’s quite the player, isn’t he?

As if having Angelica, such a cute little maid, wasn’t enough, he needed to add a few more? Could this guy possibly think he’s some sort of noble lord?

"Ahem..." Feeling that the conversation was going to ruin his reputation if it continued, Qin Chu promptly coughed to steer the topic elsewhere.

Antasia clearly understood Qin Chu’s intention, but she was clever; sometimes, a little tease was just a bit of fun.

To persist would be overdoing it and could become annoying instead.

"Did anything happen while I was away?" Qin Chu asked.

Antasia nodded, "There was a little bit of trouble, like the conflict between the surviving soldiers and the Earth Mother Goddess Sect... But they were all settled by Miss Violet, though it might provoke the jealousy of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect."

"At that time, I didn’t want Miss Violet to act so impulsively, but unfortunately, I couldn’t stop her, and those from the Earth Mother Goddess Sect really went too far."

Antasia briefly described what happened and the situation with Aileen’s return.

Thinking that suddenly provoking such big trouble as the Earth Mother Goddess Sect would make Qin Chu angry, Antasia didn’t expect that he seemed not to be angry at all.

On the contrary, he was more concerned about Aileen’s situation.

Qin Chu was silent for a moment, "Where is Aileen now?"

"After a brief reunion with the former members of the Hero Team, Aileen, Aili, Silf, and Asina came to ask Violet for a leave and then departed. I don’t know where they are now."
