With the Demon King's army investing a lot of manpower and financial resources, the castle located in the northern suburbs of Axel was completely renovated in just a few days.
The entire castle is perched on a cliff, filled with a strong ominous atmosphere, and looks eerie. The weak adventurers ran away in fear after just one look at it from a distance.
Not only that, there are many elite soldiers of the Demon King's army patrolling around the castle.
The only ones who dare to come here to challenge the Demon King are the strong ones who are extremely confident in their own methods.
"Your Majesty the Demon King, thank you for your hard work out there!"
As soon as Jiang Li returned to the castle, he saw a sheep-headed monster walking over, nodding and bowing.
"Are you a Dharma Gate?"
"No, my name is Mammon."
The sheep-headed monster choked and said with a smile.
"oh."
Jiang Li nodded.
"You're fired."
"Eh——! Why?!"
Jiang Li ignored the sheep-headed monster's screams and came to the deepest part of the castle.
"Boom!"
The raging storm roared out, violently blowing several figures away.
"How dare you challenge the Demon King? You can't even defeat me, so get out!"
Yasaka Airi showed a strong evil spirit on her face and shouted at them.
"Damn it, I didn't expect that I couldn't even defeat the cadres of the Demon King's Army!"
Those few people lowered their heads and ran away quickly, feeling ashamed and angry.
"Are you so angry?"
Jiang Li walked into the hall and said with a leisurely smile.
"Whose fault do you think it is?"
Yasaka Airi cast an indignant look.
"Obviously you said you welcome others to challenge you, but now you leave the adventurers who come to challenge us to deal with. What kind of trouble is this?"
"Not everyone is qualified to fight me."
Jiang Li looked disgusted, "If they are as strong as Barnier and Wiz, of course I would be happy to fight, but ordinary level 40 adventurers are not interesting at all, and I am not here to torture them."
"You just find it troublesome!"
Yasaka Airi glared at him, obviously angry.
"If you still find it troublesome, just change the challenge mechanism. There is no need to do it yourself."
Jiang Li spread his hands with a look of disdain on his face that you wouldn't even imagine for such a simple thing.
"It's not impossible."
Yasaka Airi understood immediately.
A few days passed, and as the news spread, a large number of adventurers came to Axel.
The first team broke into the castle three days ago, but was repulsed by Yasaka Airi. Although they were injured, all members were safe. This completely ignited the passion of the adventurers. After that, they came to challenge the Demon King every day.
There are dozens of adventurers.
Whether it's for fame, money, or the devil's promise, adventurers are constantly entering the castle gate.
Thanks to this, Yasaka Airi has sent away dozens of teams in the past few days.
"Then I will divide the work of meeting challenges into three layers, no, five layers. The devil will be the last layer, I will be the penultimate layer, and the middle layer will be handled by Mammon..."
"The one named Mammon was just laid off by me."
"Huh? Why?"
"I'm not active in my work and I have a problem with my thinking."
"Well, I have heard about his style, but after all, he is a master among the demon king's army..."
"Then transfer Beldia and let him wash the toilet here."
"That's fine."
Yasaka Airi thought about it and thought it was feasible.
However, in this case, 99% of the adventurers will probably be blocked on the third level. There are only a few adventurers who can reach the fifth level several times in the entire world.
It seems that by this time, the new Demon King's power has already spread throughout the kingdom.
"By the way, why are you back?"
Yasaka Airi glanced sideways at Jiang Li, her tone sour.
"Didn't you say you were going to get Wiz in the next few days?"
It doesn't mean anything else, it's just sour.
Even though she had changed so many sets of clothes, he was indifferent. Wiz didn't do anything, but he ran over to her like a bee attracted to flowers to show her courtesy... No, can this guy's pursuit method really be called "courtesy"?
Anyway, Airi Yasaka is very unwilling.
"She said she had to think about it for a few days, but it would happen sooner or later."
Jiang Li is very confident.
After going to have a meal with Wiz, Wiz said that the matter of selling oneself was a big deal and he needed to think about it for a few more days. Jiang Li also graciously agreed.
Now that the castle has been equipped with a special teleportation magician, good-looking beauties from the demon tribe can come over at any time, and having sex every night is not a problem. Of course, there is no need for him to be impatient.
"Speaking of which, when I left Axel today, I saw the Knights of the Kingdom."
Jiang Li was sitting on the mini version of the Demon King's throne at the top, and for some unknown reason, he mentioned this topic.
"Knights of the Kingdom?"
Yasaka Airi's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this.
"Who's in the lead?"
She was gearing up, looking very motivated.
"I don't know. Anyway, he is not very old. He is fifteen or sixteen years old. He is a man and wears a crown."
Jiang Li recalled that pompous young man. When he arrived, the whole of Axel was alarmed. Guild branch heads, nobles, and lords all came to show their courtesy.
"What? He's just the prince of the kingdom."
Yasaka Airi curled her lips, and her motivation quickly disappeared.
"Probably you are here to defeat the Demon King. You said that anyone can come to defeat you, but you really let some people see the opportunity to win the war."
"Pfft!"
Jiang Li couldn't help laughing.
"Isn't this more difficult than winning the war itself?"
"Although it is true, when these words come out of your mouth, it really makes people have mixed feelings."
Airi Yasaka looked complicated.
In the past, the old devil would never dare to leave the devil's city.
Because the old demon king's strength is limited, once he is targeted by someone like Mitsurugi Kyouya, he may be killed. In that case, the demon king's army will be defeated without a fight.
For the Demon King's army, the Old Demon King is the absolute weakness!
But with this new devil, this situation has been changed.
The strength of the new Demon King is too strong, completely superior to the entire Demon King's army. Instead of worrying about whether the Demon King's army will be defeated due to the Demon King's defeat, it is better to worry about whether the Demon King's army can keep up with the new Demon King's footsteps.
In this way, the Demon King's Army has a strong pillar that can stand upright! This is a great thing for the Demon King's Army as a whole.
This fact made Airi Yasaka feel very complicated.
"If that's the case, is it okay to let this guy become the Demon King?"
Sometimes, the idea of retreating from the rapids would even pop into her mind.
But unfortunately, the position of Demon King must be in the hands of the Yasaka clan. There is no second option, otherwise their clan will be doomed.
"By the way, witch, come out with me later."
"Where to go?"
Yasaka Airi suddenly came back to her senses, suppressed the wavering in her heart, and asked calmly.
"The royal capital."
Jiang Li crossed his legs with a strange smile on his face.
"I want to let that prince fly and go to their base camp to have fun!"
