Chapter 241: Chapter 116: Destruction of the World Part One - Quadruped Rampage

"Hee hee, over here, over here..."

In the early morning of Grier Forest, the little fairies were playing and chasing each other, playing in their usual way... Frolicking and weaving through the flowers, showing off the beauty of these masterless little magical beings.

Although these little fairies lived within the Demon King Territory, they didn’t belong to it. Born from flowers, trees, and stones, the little fairies were, in a sense, distant relatives of the elves.

They appeared freely, gathered freely, and freely formed communities... As if they had pure, unblemished hearts, they played carefreely in the forest, working hard for their own tribes.

Typically... their work involved building tiny mud houses and then running around joyfully.

"Come over here~ There are some beautiful plants here."

At the call of her fairy companion, a little fairy who had been gazing into the darkness of the forest blinked her eyes, put aside the sense of unease she had noticed, and happily joined her companion.

"Coming, coming~"

"..."

Although the environment in Grier Forest wasn’t bright, occasional gaps in the leaves still allowed rays of light to shine through. Unlike the Silver Moon Tree Court, daytime here was truly daytime... However, the place ahead that should have been somewhat illuminated was shrouded in pure darkness.

The layers of leaves in Grier Forest did not permit the light to reach the ground, instead, it displayed the shadows freely... Even the begonia flowers began to droop their buds.

"Drip, drip."

"Rustle, rustle~"

...

*Was it just an illusion?* It felt like there were sounds coming from the depths of the forest, as if something was active within. Then... it became clear that it was not just an illusion.

Various pairs of eyes opened in the darkness.

—————The Demon King Territory Boundary—————

"I need to see Satan Ye!"

Yila said, looking urgent. The Black Knights guarding the door simply stepped aside to make way... Even though it seemed unlikely they could really protect Satan Ye this way.

However, given the tense situation, Yila was truly grateful the Demon King Territory was such a laid-back place...

"Hilena! Satan Ye... Wake up, wake up!"

Yila shouted without a care, clearly visible was a little fairy with wounds all over resting on his shoulder, currently being healed with magic.

With the wings of a Witch Demon on his back, he stormed to find Satan Ye, clearly looking like he was about to beat him up... But the surrounding Black Knights still made way casually.

*It made one doubt their loyalty.*

*However, this time there was another reason...*

"Hmm? Lord Yila?"

"Mmm... Mr. Yila~"

Hilena with messy hair and Satan Ye in pajamas both seemed to be trying to wake up quickly. They realized instantly... Something must’ve gone terribly wrong.

Otherwise, with Yila’s character and behavior, there was no way he would be so rude.

"To put it briefly, the little fairy on my shoulder fled from the forest..."

Yila said, pointing at the little fairy that didn’t belong to the Demon King Territory. He said, "The magic beasts in Grier Forest have gone berserk. The previous giant bee rampage wasn’t a coincidence. Now the beast tide is breaking out of the forest and surging outward."

As Yila spoke, he quickly explained the current situation while watching the serious-looking Hilena help Satan Ye dry his hair. "The magic beast horde could break out of the forest at any moment. Summon the troops... including most of the demon kinds, and prepare to establish a defensive line."

The so-called demon kinds naturally referred to the little demons and their evolutionary lines. This seemed to be an opportunity to once again accelerate their evolution.

"No need to be too dense. Let some of the magic beasts through to the other territories within the Demon Control Area. You summon the troops... I’ll notify Senata and have her vampires inform the other territories to prepare for the impact!"

After saying that, Yila immediately went downstairs and headed towards the Blood Clan’s castle... leaving behind Hilena and Satan Ye, who had given up washing up and had started dressing quickly in tension.

Of course, they knew this wasn’t a "Destruction of the World" level crisis, but rather a "troublesome if not handled properly" situation. Even though Yila could easily kill most of the magic beasts with flames...

*That would mean no meat to eat.*

*Even Yila couldn’t possibly defend against the magic beasts charging from all directions at once. This beast tide would undoubtedly affect other territories outside the Demon King Territory, particularly hitting the lizardmen’s territory first.*

*If the territories were suddenly attacked by the beast tide, they would naturally suffer heavy losses... After all, they had already submitted to the Demon King Territory and couldn’t just be left in trouble.*

*The offerings, or rather the tax they provided, weren’t just symbols of submission, but expressions of willingness to accept the Demon King’s rule and protection.*

*It was natural for the Demon King to protect his subjects!*

*And at this moment, with the Demon King still young... Yila needed to take responsibility.*

"Senata!"

Yila shouted. At that moment, Senata had already been sending messages through bats. She quickly operated and said, "Miss Vera already told me! I’m warning the surrounding territories as fast as I can!"

*What efficiency!*

*Marveling at the terrifying efficiency of the Demon King Territory, Yila nodded. Communicating in his mind with Tipcapu, he confirmed that Tipcapu had already notified the other leaders. Then he quickly flew downstairs... to the children rescued from Hezlosa he still needed to notify.*

*Yila needed to make sure they stayed obediently within the Demon King Territory and didn’t wander around.*

"Mmm... human..."

At this point, the little fairy on his shoulder opened her eyes. She said this, feeling an aura of reassurance from Yila. She held onto Yila’s collar tightly and said, "Save... my kinsfolk..."

"I know."

Yila said, shielding the little fairy from the wind caused by flying. He said, "I’m arranging resistance to the beast tide first. After that... I will personally go save those little fairies. Don’t worry."

"Mmm~"

"..."

Seeing the little fairy seemingly relieved and about to fall asleep, Yila hurriedly asked, "Wait, don’t sleep yet. Do you know the cause of this? Why did the magic beasts form a tide?"

Earlier, a little fairy had found him, saying they had found a severely injured wild little fairy. After hearing about the beast tide gathering, Yila quickly flew to the forest to investigate. Realizing the truth, he immediately returned to notify everyone.

His understanding of the specifics was limited to what he had told Hilena and Satan Ye.

"We had noticed earlier... that the magic beasts deep in the forest suddenly... multiplied quickly. Recently, we saw magic beasts every day. Not just in the forest, but on the distant plains too. They seemed to have run out of food."

"..."

*Wait, if that’s the case...*

Yila’s eyes widened.

...

*Did the range extend beyond the Demon King Territory?*
