Chapter 729: Chapter 708 ( Conversation )
"I can let you think for a bit, though I want you to give me an idea quickly" - Cattleya said seriously - "After all, I have a meeting to plan the next moves, though obviously I can't tell you the content."
[I understand...]
Freid, who was hiding and listening to everything, nodded slightly, though that didn't take away from the fact that he was annoyed that the Demon Queen was talking about her plans with a stranger.
[Let's see, if you talk like that, I guess you already have a spy, so the next thing would be to try to destroy everyone who opposes you, be it the leaders of Verbergen, or your subordinates, though I don't know what position of power you're in...]
"Hmm, let's say I'm a high commander" - Cattleya replied with a small smile - "Are you curious to know what race or what position I'm in? Pupu ~! Sorry, I can't tell you, more so when you haven't told me who you are ~"
[You have a point, information for information's sake, and since I don't want to say anything, it's only fair that you don't either!]
"It's good that you understand me, I mean, I have fun talking to you and honestly I wouldn't want our little relationship to fade away because of a mistake" - Cattleya said as she shook her head.
Freid raised an eyebrow when he heard this, because at least with this he confirmed that Cattleya was not sending information to the humans, in other words, she was talking to an unknown, but not about the plans, though he had better keep listening because maybe he would find out something else.
"That's a good second move, though I have a question, why do you want me to kill my subordinates?" - Cattleya asked with a frown.
[Because no matter how much they say they submit to you, they will wait for the perfect moment so they can stab you in the back.]
"You have a point, though I'm surprised you know what they're like," Cattleya said with a frown.
[All races are the same, as long as there's greed inside us]
"We'd better leave that for another time" - said Cattleya as she started a small talk with her unknown friend.
After an hour of conversation, Freid decided that enough was enough and withdrew with a complicated expression, mostly because things didn't go the way he thought they would. He had been thinking that he had finally found the hard evidence to say that she was the traitor, but now he knew it was just a conversation between "friends".
Cattleya quickly used her mana to be able to detect Freid's presence, only to no longer feel the hybrid demon's presence - "He's gone."
[I see...]
"I liked your pretend voice better" - Cattleya said calmly.
[Better get back to the point, though there is something I want you to do.]
"Please speak" - Cattleya said as she raised an eyebrow.
[I want you to put some zombie bone dust on the possible entrances along with some fruit juice from the underworld]
"Ok, give me a moment" - Cattleya said as she ordered one of the maids outside her room.
After about 15 minutes, the maid arrived with the items Cattleya had ordered, which were not too hard to get, after all, those were normal ingredients in the demonic continent.
"Ready" - Cattleya said while raising an eyebrow - "Now what?"
[Use some mana on the mixture and you'll notice a small connection].
"Interesting, though I still don't understand why you would wish for me to do this" - Cattleya said with a frown.
[It's simple, if someone wants to enter, you will be able to discover it because they will have to pass over this mixture and you will be able to detect their presence very easily, and to increase security, you can simply place a barrier]
"I see, that makes things a little easier for me" - Cattleya said calmly as she created a barrier and nodded - "Ok, it's time we had a serious talk, we've already wasted a lot of time."
[Ok, I guess the part where you said they would attack Verbergen, was true?]
"Yes, though I don't think it would clash with your plans" - Cattleya replied as she walked to a chair and sat down - "Or am I wrong?"
[In fact, the attack on Verbergen is problematic for me, mostly because there is a large labyrinth there, and part of my troops are there].
"And you don't mind those pesky elves and their friends?" - Cattleya asked in surprise.
[Of course I don't mind them, I mean, they're nothing of mine, I don't have to worry if their lives end prematurely or not]
"And I thought you were a hero" - said Cattleya as she laughed with emotion - "It's good to know I'm wrong."
[I only saved the kingdom because it was beneficial to me, Verbergen's members are nothing to me]
"Ok, well, I guess I don't need to explain my plans, or inform you about the infiltrator and his movements" - Cattleya said while shaking her head.
[I want all the information...]
"I thought you weren't interested" - Cattleya muttered while shaking her head.
[I don't care what happens, but it's better to be safe than sorry!]
"I understand, though it's a bit annoying that I have to hear that saying so many times in a row in such a short time" - Cattleya said with a frown, though she quickly started talking about everything related to the attack.
After a few more minutes, Cloud knew all about the attack on Verbergen.
"What do you think?" - Cattleya asked seriously.
[Your plan is good, although I recommend you to be careful, something tells me that there are more opponents than you think.]
"Why do you say that?" - Cattleya asked with a frown.
[It's simple, no matter how much the high priest supports you, that there is no one to oppose your orders, it's a bit worrying, so it's obvious they have to be preparing for the moment you fail]
"Let it fail..." - Cattleya repeated as she narrowed her eyes - "I don't think I'll fail."
[You don't have to because they are the ones who will fail for you, after all, it's obvious that Verbergen is much harder to attack than you think]
Cattleya was silent for a few seconds before shaking her head - "Please continue."
[It's simple, when the attack starts, a small group of "loyal" subordinates, will perform an independent attack for you, and when they fail, the other leaders will accuse you of being negligent]
"I see" - Cattleya muttered as she remained silent, though she quickly shook her head - "What do you think I should do?"
[It's simple, the moment it happens, kill them before they ruin everything, after all, you just have to say that not following your orders is considered treason punishable by death]
"That sounds like something I would do" - Cattleya said with a huge grin - "Are you sure you're not a demon?"
[No, I'm not a demon... I'm something much worse...]
"Brr, that's scary" - Cattleya said with disdain, though her expression quickly relaxed - "tell me , how did you discover that mixture so you could guard me from spies?"
[I read it in the information left by Oscar Orcus.]
"I see..." - Cattleya nodded calmly
* * * *
Cloud was silent for a few seconds.
The conversation with Cattleya had ended more than two hours ago and now he was thinking about the attack against Verbergen.
"I'm sure they will manage to defend themselves without a problem, although the casualties will be clear" - Cloud said as he started to look at the sky - "It's true that I don't care if they die or not, but I'm sure Lyutillis Haltina will hate me when she finds out I did nothing to defend her people."
Cloud was silent before shaking his head - "I'd better think about it when it happens, I gain nothing by worrying when the real attack hasn't even started yet."
"Cloud, dinner's ready!" - Shea exclaimed happily.
"Ok, I'll be right there" - Cloud replied calmly as he got up and walked to where the others were.
"Did something happen?" - Tio asked as he raised an eyebrow - "You took too long on that call."
"Yes, something is obviously going on" - Kaori added as she narrowed her eyes.
"You can talk to us, Cloud" - Remia said as she looked at her beloved.
Cloud was silent for a few seconds before talking about everything he had heard from Cattleya.
The girls showed different kinds of reactions.
Yue was as if nothing had happened, yes, it was worrisome that demons were about to attack an innocent kingdom, but it was none of her business.
Remia was a little worried, although at the same time she didn't want to get in the middle of the war because it might endanger her baby.
Kaori, Shizuku and Tio, were with serious faces because they didn't want Verbergen to fall to the demons, although there was someone who was showing an altered expression.
"Cloud, we have to go at once!" - Shea exclaimed in terror - "We can't let Verbergen fall!"
"Relax, we'll go, but you don't have to worry" - said Cloud as he tried to calm the rabbit girl - "Remember that they don't start the attack yet!"
"I know, though that doesn't mean we can't get there sooner so we can help with the defenses like you did in the capital!" - Shea exclaimed with concern.
"Ok, ok, you don't have to say anything else, we'll go right away" - sighed Cloud because it was obvious that Shea wouldn't stop until he fulfilled her "little" wish.
