Reincarnated in the Alternate World, I'm A Demonic Lord as Well as a Villager-Chapter 698 - 354: Guess Who Won’t Attend the Party?

Chapter 698: Chapter 354: Guess Who Won’t Attend the Party?

The kingdom conference was held in Saint Karno City.

This was a meeting involving dozens of kingdoms of various sizes from the Aireland Continent.

Among them were the Fess Kingdom located in the east of the Aireland Continent, the Aoja Kingdom bordering the Fess Kingdom, the Wus Kingdom located west of Saint Karno City, and the Esper Kingdom where the recent human-demon war took place.

The other kingdoms also sent their own foreign ministers to participate in the conference.

This was a splendid Baroque building with two huge spires, and the meeting was held in the back hall of the building.

The matters discussed at each kingdom conference were major issues affecting the survival of a kingdom or the safety of the Aireland Continent.

This conference had two important issues to discuss.

The first one was about the death of the Outerworld Hero, Jack.

"I’ve said it before, this kind of thing should have been postponed, and now look what happened, the Outerworld Hero is gone, and over a thousand elite adventurers are severely injured. It’s simply a disastrous defeat, a disgrace, a huge disgrace!"

A diplomat from the Fess Kingdom spoke discontentedly.

The Fess Kingdom was the most opposed to the current war against the demon race.

There were two main reasons.

First, the Fess Kingdom was known as the home of adventurer weapons, producing all kinds of weapons.

They can’t fight so quickly and finish it all at once. How would the king sell his equipment and rake in profits?

Second, the current Demon King came from a small village in their kingdom, presumably having a special sentiment toward the Fess Kingdom, similar to a connection to his homeland, and would not easily attack the Fess Kingdom.

"Nonsense. The Demon Realm is not within your territory, so of course, you can say such irrelevant things here."

At this moment, the diplomat from the Esper Kingdom fiercely slapped the table, standing on the chair, and his 1.5-meter height instantly turned into two meters, greatly enhancing his presence.

The Esper Kingdom was the most supportive of war against the demon race, and the Delarosa Royal Family at home was a firm pro-war faction.

Because if they didn’t fight now, it was estimated that the royal family would end with his generation.

The Demon Realm where the demon race resided was within the Esper Kingdom’s territory, and the demons had actively launched attacks on the Esper Kingdom.

The goblin cavalry wantonly seized cities within the territory, and now the royal family had lost control over more than half of the kingdom’s cities. All those cities captured by the goblins were governed by locally elected individuals.

Can those elected local leaders really be considered City Lords? They neither pay tribute to the royal family nor swear loyalty to it; they’re simply outright villains!

"Now my kingdom is relying on Mother River Maland to confront the demon race across the river, and not only do you several kingdoms refuse to send troops to assist, but you also delay economic aid, only making sarcastic remarks. Where have you thrown the contents of the kingdom alliance? Do you want to see our kingdom perish?"

The diplomat from Esper Kingdom angrily rebuked everyone at the long table.

This statement was clearly a veiled criticism aimed at the Wus Kingdom and Aoja Kingdom.

These two vast kingdoms were located in safe areas and were part of a kingdom alliance with Fess Kingdom and Esper Kingdom.

Now that the Esper Kingdom was under attack from the demon race, the two kingdoms merely stood by and watched.

"Don’t worry, the kingdom won’t perish. It’s natural for the conceited young hero from the Outerworld to be killed by the Demon King. We also have many excellent local strong heroes and completely capable of opposing the demon race."

The diplomat from Wus Kingdom spoke.

"Moreover, we have Faata. Saili Porol is a once-in-a-century Shield Magic Saintess. As long as we have her Shield Magic, it’s impossible for the demon race to break through the human barrier."

"That’s right. That’s right."

A chorus of agreement resonated around the conference hall.

The diplomat from Esper Kingdom had no choice but to sit down helplessly.

In that case, they could only seek the help of the Saintess at Faata after the kingdom conference ended.

After discussing the issue of Jack’s death, the meeting moved on to the second topic.

"I believe everyone has received this."

The conference host took out a dazzling black invitation card.

"The demon race is planning to hold a victory celebration party in the Demon Realm and has openly invited all kingdoms, inviting us to send journalists to experience the demon culture."

"Could this be a gesture of goodwill from the demon race? We should prioritize peace and visit the Demon Realm and the Demon King for an understanding!"

A diplomat from a small kingdom stood up.

After no response was received, he quietly sat back down.

A small kingdom has no say in the kingdom conference, where the most important members are Fess, Wus, Esper, and Aoja, the Four Great Kingdoms.

The diplomats from the Four Great Kingdoms exchanged glances.

"What are your plans?"

"How could I possibly attend the enemy’s party?! Attending the party requires bringing gifts; who knows if they’re going to bring up the territories currently occupied by goblins as an issue and demand we give those lands as gifts to them!"

The diplomat from Esper Kingdom was the first to express their firm refusal to attend.

"This is clearly a provocation. If we go, we’ll fall right into the demon race’s trap."

The minister from Wus Kingdom also expressed his refusal to go.

The Outerworld Hero, Jack, originated from Wus Kingdom.

Attending a party for the opponent who killed their own hero is absurd, and would certainly incite public outrage at home.

The minister from Aoja Kingdom likewise expressed his refusal to go.

"Attending the demon race’s party is an insult to our dignity, we will not go!"

The diplomat from Fess Kingdom hesitated for two seconds and also stated they would not attend.

"Since none of you are going, we will not send journalists to the Demon Realm either."

The kingdom conference concluded with the Four Great Kingdoms’ exclusion of the demon race.

...

The Demon Realm.

The victory party is being enthusiastically planned.

The party will last for two days, starting at noon.

The weather in the morning was exceptionally nice.

On a sunny day, with a clear sky and sunshine, even the air seemed to carry the scent of flowers.

The Demon Realm was filled with cheerful creatures, exuding a joyous atmosphere everywhere.

The party at the Demon King Castle was being organized by Bone Frame. The fair little bone frame was busy going up and down.

Meanwhile, another steward of the Demon King Castle — the twin-tailed Ghost Wenli, donned a fine dress and slowly floated outside the Demon Realm.

Outside the Demon Realm, four journalist teams were checking their equipment.

"Remember, be cautious later, but don’t act as if you’ve never seen the world! We’re the royal palace’s chief journalists reporting the demon race’s party events!"

"Use this somber filter for me! Yes, this cloud-covered sky is befitting of the Demon Realm!"

"This isn’t a live broadcast; the video is later transmitted to every resident’s home through TV crystal. Cut three sentences into one, don’t you understand this? How did you study media?"

"This time we must let the residents of the kingdom see the true nature of the demon race!"

The four journalist teams, totaling twenty people, encountered each other in the forest, staring at one another and the kingdom emblems on each other’s clothes. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Didn’t you say you weren’t coming?!" ×4

"Welcome to the Demon Realm, everyone~"

At this point, Wenli slowly floated in front of everyone, inviting them into the demon territory.

The ghostly girl was a bit surprised.

It was unexpected that the most important four kingdoms of the Aireland Continent had all sent people to attend the party.

Shami is indeed highly regarded~
