Demon Lord Management Sim Game

Velvet and her troops rode the horses, cutting through the snow on the streets, and following the two messengers.

"I still feel like this is a trap, Vel," Candice whispered to her best friend.

The prophet checked at her troops, who still looked sleepy. "We have no choice. We should still listen to reports from those who saw demons."

However, Velvet also could not deny it. They were now passing through a street with houses showing no light.

Or have they been exterminated by demons? However, she didn't see any traces of blood or anything like that. It's like this place has been abandoned on purpose. 𝗳𝒓𝚎e𝚠𝒆𝐛𝐧𝐨v𝚎Ɩ.co𝓶

Suddenly the messenger stopped his horse, causing the others to stop as well.

"Perhaps you are wondering. Why is this place empty?" One of the messengers hissed, then turned his head to the prophet. "That's because a noble in this city claims our land and wants to make it into a huge garden. He could have used other land but selfishly insisted on building it here."

"We were forced to leave the homes we've lived in for years." The other messenger added. "And what is the government doing? Nothing."

"Hey, don't talk bad about the government!" One of the soldiers snapped.

Velvet raised a hand to silence the others.

"We also prayed, but God did not answer us. It's winter, and we don't have a home. We have asked the mayor to stay here for a while because the new construction will be carried out after winter. However, he refused!" The first messenger continued. "We have to leave! Even though we didn't ask for our land back, because we know our position! We're only staying for a while!"

The first messenger started to shed tears. "Hey, Miss Prophet. Can you offer a solution? The noble employs a lot of people, you know? He owned many plantations, which financed many families. We can't kill him, no matter what. He's an important person."

"I see." Velvet wore a warm smile. "I can help you to discuss with that noble."

"That's way too late." A bitter chuckle left the mouth of the first messenger. "That nobleman was killed by Lord Vorn. And we were told to stay at the nobleman's house and enjoy what he had. Of course, we're happy. That place has plenty of room and food supplies, after all. And later, we will take care of the plantations. No family will starve to death." free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

Instantly Velvet's tongue felt numb. She couldn't offer any rebuttal.

The second messenger shouted. "It was Lord Vorn who answered our cries! He is our true savior! All hail, great Lord Vorn!!!"

Suddenly a hum echoed. Something like a translucent white wall appeared from the area's periphery, then enlarged and formed a dome covering the place.

"Magic barriers!?" Candice widened her eyes in shock. "Holy shit, I've never seen anything this big!"

"Turn on the emergency alert!" Velvet gave the order.

However, the first messenger took out a small bow under his cloak and immediately shot a mage from the Velvet side who had raised a magic staff. The mage fell from his horse, who immediately neighed and ran away.

"The followers of the demons aren't just fellow demons!" The second messenger laughed aloud, then turned his horse and ran away with his partner.

"Son of a bitch!" The troops were about to give chase, the archers among them were also ready with bows, and the mages had raised their staffs. However, Velvet raised her hand again.

"Just let them be! There are more important things!" She slightly lowered her head to confirm her hearing. Her ears heard heavy footsteps approaching. "Something is coming."

The prophet and his troops turned their head to an intersection, finding large horned creatures walking in the distance.

Minotaurs.

"You can't give a distress signal, Candice?" Velvet gulped. The troops he brought were more numerous than the minotaurs. However, their physique is clearly far behind.

Candice answered with trembling lips. "Sorry, but that is difficult, annoying magic. So, I give up on learning it."

Yes, the magic looked simple, only shooting a bright pink light upwards to indicate their location. However, the user had to shoot the magic hundreds of feet up, which was extremely difficult.

"Besides, I'm not sure that magic will be able to penetrate this magic barrier dome," Candice added. "The light created will hit the roof of the dome. It won't get high enough for our troops to see."

And the Velvet's wyvern was still injured and being treated in the kingdom of Durcia's palace. She couldn't summon that beast. Even if she could, the prophet wasn't sure that the lizard-like creature could break through this barrier.

The minotaurs suddenly stopped because their leader raised his hand. However, their faces were already ruthless, indicating they were thirsty to fight.

I stand guard on my throne, though the night is late. And when what I was waiting for came, I stood up with passion.

There was a call from Ritor.

"How are things there?" I asked with a smile.

The minotaur general answered. "We have successfully trapped the prophet and her troops, my lord."

"Excellent, wait for me." I hung up the call, and when I turned around, Ayre had already given me my helmet.

"Good luck, my lord." The woman wore a wide smile. "If you win, we have taken a big step in subduing humanity."

"Yeah." I took the helmet. "This is one of the most crucial things in my journey."

Wait for me, Velvet. I will free you from human lies.

After kissing Ayre on the lips, I put on my helmet, intending to teleport to where Ritor was.

However, Emily suddenly contacted me.

"What's wrong, Emily?" I asked, slightly irritated at being interrupted like that. "I am busy."

"Excuse me, my lord! However, this is a very urgent situation!" The supreme undead voice was accompanied by a strong wind. Perhaps she was riding on her wyvern. "A dragon is attacking us!"

It took me a while to digest Emily's words. "What did you say?"

"A dragon, my lord! Xenora and some succubi are distracting that thing, but who knows how long!"

I froze for a moment. Those scientists are essential to my plans. So, I can't just leave them.

Not to mention that there was Emily and Xenora. I have to protect them.

On the other hand, I've been waiting for my second meeting with Velvet.
