Chapter 108: Invitation to Adventure

Vanessa didn't feel the dangerous energy aura of these two strangers at all, and this foreign girl seemed so familiar with her master, but who was Ais? Her master's pseudonym?

She had absolutely no idea these two foreign humans were from the devil race. Dylan and Sylvia had hidden their auras so well. As long as they didn't use a certain amount of their power and magical energy, it was nearly impossible to guess their true identity.

Unfortunately, Elysia had cheated unwittingly with her unusual eyesight and abilities beyond the laws of nature. Their disguise was meaningless in her eyes.

"You mean this, Lys? Em, this is the emblem found at the bottom of the lake by my companion. Do you know about the symbol in this gold emblem?" Elysia raised an emblem as big as a brick but thin with an intricate yet beautiful logo engraved in gold.

"What is this symbol, hmm... I've never seen a symbol like this before. You can try asking my father, Ais. He knows a lot more about complicated affairs than I do." Sylvia patted her chin thoughtfully for a moment, then gave up.

Elysia felt a little reluctant and awkward if she really needed to ask the Devil Emperor. She just gave him kindness and reprimand a while ago because he attacked her without further ado and without reason.

But the curiosity of this unusual item prevailed over the awkwardness and discomfort. Elysia wanted to know more about this emblem.

Strangely, she couldn't see the status screen of this gold emblem at all. It was an empty status screen without data information! That was what made her astonished and curious.

This man was a Devil Emperor who had lived for more than 900 years and the sole ruler of the Devil Continent. At least he knew a lot, right? Elysia approached the Devil Emperor without hesitation. While Sylvia and Vanessa followed from behind.

"Mr. Nalyd, I apologize for my self-defense action a while ago but do you know about this emblem?" Elysia apologized with half-baked sincerity but with a curious smile.

"..." Dylan didn't respond. He seemed to be plunging quite deeply into his train of thought.

"Mr. Nalyd? Mr. Nal? Mr. Lyd? Sir? Hmm... Uncle?" Elysia tilted her head slightly and tried to pull the man back into the real world under different nicknames.

"Who is it, Mr. Nalyd, huh!? Who are you trying to call? And who are you calling, uncle? I'm not your uncle!" Dylan immediately got out of his train of thought. He was triggered by the nickname this human girl used for him.

"That's your own name, father. Do you remember? You still forget your own name sometimes? It's Nalyd, remember? Nalyd." Sylvia immediately took part in the conversation to cover up the mess her father might cause.

"Then let me repeat my sentence. Uncle, I apologize for my self-defense action a while ago but do you know about this emblem?" Elysia smiled a little mischievously when Devil Emperor didn't seem to like being called uncle.

"Are you a Night Elf?" Dylan ignored the human girl's question and went straight to the thoughts that stuck in his mind.

"Well, it has nothing to do with the question I asked. But regrettably, I am not a Night Elf but an ordinary human. I have answered your question. Now you have to answer my question just now." Elysia shook her head slightly, not knowing what this Devil Emperor had in mind.

Dylan narrowed his eyes slightly. Ordinary human? Weak little girl? He lost against her, and she dared to tell him that!? He wouldn't doubt this human girl was an Emperor-class being, but the human race didn't have women with that high power class! All six Human Emperors were men! On top of that, one of them was missing in action. That accursed Human Emperor was being hunted down by him!

How could he believe that shit! He refused to believe it! In his mind, he already thought this girl was a creature more or less equal to him, and she was in disguise.

"I don't know, you're asking the wrong person." Dylan refused to answer and looked away.

But in his mind, he was somewhat surprised by the gold emblem with the engraved logo. He had seen a similar symbol in an ancient history book regarding lost history. Incomplete, only one book survived and could be found, an ancient manuscript that was difficult to read and damaged with age.

Even though he had some clues, why should he enlighten his potential enemy? Better to hide it himself and swallow it to find out for himself later.

It seemed, this gigantic forest that stretched between the three regions of the Human Continent and crossed the boundaries of his continent wasn't that simple at all. He needed to find out for himself later when he and his daughter became adventurers in the city.

"Is that so? Hmm... Too bad." Elysia felt a little disappointed, and so did Elena.

She was about to put the gold emblem into her [Space Bag], which used to be her [Space Storage] disguise, but she just remembered the empty [Spce Bag] was in the [Space Storage]. Wasn't it useless and failed to do its job?

Not thinking too long, Elysia immediately put the gold emblem in the [Space Storage]. She was worried about the possibility the Demon Emperor might snatch it because his eyes were so unmistakably dishonest.

'Master, don't forget about my reward hehe...'

'You can always claim your reward as long as you are a good tiger or a good cat. The gold emblem weighed three to four kilograms. For the raw materials, we can have as many as 300 to 400 gold coins. Sixty thousand to eighty thousand dollars, a lot of value for just food and drink.' Elysia answered Vanessa's expectation even though the latter did not know what the dollar meant.

As long as the stock was secured, Vanessa was very satisfied. She felt uncomfortable being a burden to her master, and she couldn't let her master bear all the expenses alone. With that block of gold, that valuable treasure, she was finally able to contribute.

Vanessa smiled happily, even though she looked unsuitable because of her fierce tiger face. She didn't require any payment other than food. 300 to 400 gold coins could mean good food for some time for her and her master. She must find more valuable treasures to achieve her dream! Vanessa's new motivation suddenly emerged.

The disappearance of the gold emblem in Elysia's hand into thin air really shocked Dylan and Sylvia. Still, it wasn't the culprit's business. She walked over to Vanessa while planning to leave here and leave the two devils to their own ends.

Sylvia was about to ask how her new friend could do it. Still, she immediately swallowed back what she was about to say because it might sound too personal, and she couldn't bear to take a rebuke. A moment later, she immediately had an incredibly brilliant idea.

"Ais, do you already want to go? Where is your house? Can we come to visit? As you know, we don't have a house." Sylvia played the role of a pitiful girl

'Right! She is the princess of the devil race. Her father is a Devil Emperor. She and her father do not own a house because they live in a huge, magnificent castle!' Elena exposed the truth with ease.

'We don't have a house in this world either, do we? She hopes to be accommodated, but I also don't have a house hehe...' Elysia giggled with amusement in her mind.

'Maybe she has other goals? Em, if you want to refuse, benevolent rejection is enough. She's a good girl but only unfortunate because of her father...' Elena felt sorry for Sylvia and put a little sympathy.

"Yes, I'm going to go. Regarding your question just now, Lys. Please forgive me, but I also don't have a house either. Aren't you and your father going to Rosemoor City as adventurers? If I'm not mistaken, our position is already close to the West Region and that city... Maybe a few thousand kilometers from here." Elysia thought for a moment and explained gently.

She thought the subtle rejection would end it as she had predicted, but what she saw, Sylvia was getting excited and smiled. Was there something wrong with her?

"Yay! Isn't that a coincidence! We don't have a home, and you said you were adventurous? Maybe our meeting was written in the destiny book? Ais, you've become my second friend, will you go on an adventure with us? Pweety pwease with sugar on top?" Sylvia clapped her hands once and immediately grabbed Elysia's hand so the latter wouldn't run away. Then, she put on a cute and adorable face.

"Eh?" Elysia was confused about what to say, but she had the impulse to tell her that refusing this girl's invitation was a sin.

Dylan immediately looked at his daughter as if in disbelief, but he remained silent in his approval. His daughter's invitation was good because he could repay the kindness he had received more easily and then reveal this human girl's identity.

He who was at the Emperor level as a devil above all had lost to an ordinary girl! He couldn't take it! Even with his talents and abilities, he couldn't find out the true identity of this girl. No one would believe the Devil Emperor had lost to a weak human girl who was still at the Apprentice level other than himself.
