Chapter 228: Chapter 104 Evolution! Little Ice Demon!

"Gob, it’s so comfortable lately~"

"Quack, indeed."

Before the sun rose, a little early-rising imp and an early-rising goblin sat at the entrance of the Bee Flower Snow Moon factory, waiting for their work time to arrive.

Recently, the quality of sleep for goblins and imps had improved... With a good house that shielded from the wind and rain, and soft cotton blankets, they fell into a comfortable deep sleep almost as soon as they lay down.

The sleep quality of these little creatures was enviable.

"Lord Yila is really nice~"

"Quack, indeed."

"We must work harder to repay Lord Yila!"

"Quack! Indeed!"

"..."

The relationship between goblins and imps had always been good. Although there wasn’t much large-scale communication, these two creatures, being the most abundant lower demons in the Demon Control Area, could be considered a community of shared interests.

Although sometimes they were envious of each other... For instance, imps envied goblins for their nimble hands, and goblins envied imps for their strong evolutionary paths.

As for other lower demons... it was still probably slimes, but no one really hoped for slimes to do any work. Although they could understand instructions, until they evolved into beings like Mr. Lime or Ms. Lime with solid forms...

They didn’t even have "hands."

...

"Gob~ but I feel like we’re still not enough..."

Goblin said, watching the bustling factory, waiting for his shift while observing the little creatures arriving one by one. He said, "Is there no way for us to produce ten times the amount of food, ten times the amount of medicine bottles (Bee Flower Snow Moon)?"

Saying this, Goblin’s eyes sparkled with a mysterious light, gesturing as he spoke: "Just like pulling a chain can lift up a gate, can’t there be a structure... Gob, let me think."

Goblin thought for a moment, then fell silent. He realized that with his brain, he couldn’t come up with a good structure, so he said, "We pull the chain, then a plank tilts up, throwing the bottles into the box... That way, we wouldn’t have to place them one by one."

"Quack... indeed."

"..."

For some reason, this little imp was just echoing whatever Goblin said today. Usually, their conversations weren’t like this... Although Goblin was a bit puzzled, he didn’t give it much thought.

Because at this moment, other goblins who were also very interested in the topic of "structure" gathered around, discussing loudly whether there was a way to create a more efficient production line.

Though their ideas weren’t very meaningful due to their limited intelligence and experience... this ten-minute discussion was worth more than Vera’s ten days of thought, who was supposed to be in charge of assembly line improvements.

Vera was quite dumb... and always slacking off.

"Quack..."

The little imp made a weak sound, sitting down softly on the ground. Everyone’s attention shifted to it. The goblins wore worried expressions, while the imps seemed a bit excited.

"Gob? What’s wrong with it?"

"Is it sick? Gob."

"..."

"It’s evolving! Awesome!"

"It’s the first one in this batch to evolve! We’re almost there too!"

"Evolve, evolve!"

...

Evolution?

The goblins looked curiously at the little imp lying on the ground. Even the little fairies in the factory heard the commotion and flew out to see the little imp... At this moment, the little imp’s skin was turning crimson, its body gradually becoming ash white.

The ash gray shell slowly expanded as if the body was about to burst... it really looked like a swollen corpse that might explode at any moment, scattering blood and flesh everywhere.

But that wasn’t the case... A new life form was being nurtured within the shell.

It was about to be reborn.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the little imp, who had been motionless for a long time, had a crack appear on its back with a "creak," revealing white skin inside.

"Creak~"

"Creak~"

"Creak~"

With the shell cracking, the new little imp gradually crawled out from its original body... Presented before everyone was the little imp with white skin, its overall appearance hadn’t changed much.

At least it hadn’t transformed into something humanoid like a Balrog Flame Demon or a Baphomet, or a Helde Ice Demon.

But this was a necessary step towards becoming one...

This little imp’s body had obviously become more slender, and its claws had turned into distinct fingers... though still with sharp tips.

The skin had become smooth, and its previously decently long pointed ears had grown larger and longer... drooping backward, making it look somewhat like a rabbit.

There were also special keratinous coverings resembling clothes covering its upper and lower body... though no matter how much it evolved, no secondary sexual characteristics would appear either.

"Quack, I evolved! I’m a Little Ice Demon!"

"Woohoo!"

"Awesome!"

"Congratulations, congrats on evolving!"

The imps and goblins cheered, genuinely happy for the newly evolved Little Ice Demon. Since it evolved... the rest of the imps who had been undergoing training in the same batch should soon evolve too.

Although the evolutionary path was quite random.

And after evolving to a Little Ice Demon, the next step would be to become a "Frost Demon," and then eventually a Helde Ice Demon... which looked like a loli.

So the other little creatures looked at it with envy... because Vera said that Yila loved lolis the most.

(Yila: ...)

The little fairy immediately flew towards Demon King City, leaving behind the excitedly discussing little creatures, saying: "I’ll go notify Master Hilena and Lord Yila."

"You evolved?"

Replied the goblin who was close to the Little Ice Demon, to which it nodded, its long ears swaying behind it as it smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I got stronger~"

"Congratulations."

Goblin said, looking towards the factory, sighing: "Gob, you can do more now. I also want to do more for the Demon King Territory... Gob, gob."

Little Ice Demon: "There will definitely be a way, Gob."

Goblin: "Quack, indeed."

The two of them, exchanging each other’s catchphrases, looked at each other and then smiled together... Goblins and imps were striving forward on the path to reclaim their former glory.

For they really wanted to do more for the Demon King Territory.
