After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King

Chapter 251: Chapter 126: The Opponent is Too Weak

"We’ve arrived."

Vera said, looking at the city before her... In front of her was the religious group of the Flame Demon Sect. Inside, there should have been many devotees of the Lord of Fire Elements, engaged in their usual activities.

But now, it was evidently deserted. Even considering a beast horde, it shouldn’t be this quiet. Moreover, it didn’t seem like they suffered significant losses due to the beast horde.

"So quiet."

Even Satan Ye noted, while Yila nodded in agreement, observing the remains of wild beasts around them, noticing the mix of charred and blade-sliced wounds, he said, "The beast horde has already been dealt with."

In other words, these two religious groups didn’t need any help from anyone. Calling Yila over was undoubtedly for another purpose... clearly, they had ulterior motives.

"What should we do? Retreat first?"

Vera asked, turning her head only to find their way back blocked by some hooded figures in red robes and a few knights in pure white armor.

It seemed going back was not an option.

"Fine, let’s go... We’ll have a chat with the leaders of these religious groups."

Vera said, looking somewhat helpless. She glanced at Yila but saw a strange look in his eyes. What kind of attitude was that? What else could they do?

As both of them blinked, Yila’s gaze shifted from them to the familiar-looking robed figures... the same ones who attacked him at the World Tree.*

In other words, these were the Flame Demon Sect followers who attacked him.

Yila signaled to the two women to follow him, then decisively walked towards their original path, only to be blocked by the Flame Demon Sect followers.

"The bishop awaits you inside the religious group."

Though the other party maintained basic politeness... the followers stood firmly without any intention of giving way. They were determined not to let the three pass.

"Please step aside. I suddenly remembered something I forgot to take."

Yila said, but the other party showed no intention of moving. The leading Flame Demon Sect follower gently refused, "Is there something you need? Actually, it can be..."

However, his words were immediately interrupted.

"First Wing Pillar·Crimson Dragon·Wing Shatter!"

With Yila’s words, the Blazing Mana exploded, incinerating all the followers blocking their way almost instantly. The surrounding forest also burst into flames.

The previously narrow path transformed into a vast, charred plain. Crimson wings unfurled, shattering with a roar, and quickly reassembled into even larger, more exaggerated wings, glowing like flowing magma, the center of the sun.

With a casual flap of the enormous wings, scorching heat radiated outward. Within 300 feet of Yila, everything turned to swirling ash... He acted too quickly.

"Yila? What are you doing?"

Vera, encased in the crimson Mana, asked in shock, not expecting Yila to act so suddenly... He hadn’t even exchanged many words.

Why so violent?

Vera thought but didn’t realize Yila wasn’t acting out of rage. On the contrary... this was the most rational choice.

Even Satan Ye, protected by the shield, seemed to be the only one who anticipated Yila’s move. She tilted her head and said, "If you can’t predict it, the enemy can’t either... We can’t just foolishly walk into their ambush, can we?"

Vera: "..."

Indeed, even Satan Ye understood, but Vera didn’t think of it... With almost no combat experience, her thoughts lingered on the logic of *Radical Contradiction Combat*, not realizing the perspective of *Self-Protection Combat*:

There was no need to talk until things fell apart or be insulted by the opponent to start killing.

To protect oneself, one must eliminate any malicious entities, even if the malice wasn’t aimed at killing them... But explanation required the other party to explain, not to make excuses in one’s own mind.

Though few in this world realized this... Yila undoubtedly did, and Satan Ye learned it after watching Yila’s action.

Satan Ye gradually walked further down the path of the *Deceitful King*... Good teaching, Yila! Good teaching!

After Yila’s sudden action, clearing the retreat path, the religious group realized what happened. Numerous Red Robed Sect followers rushed out, alongside many warriors in pure white armor.

"Mr. Yila!"

Satan Ye called out, and Yila immediately understood her intention. The burning heat around him concentrated, simply placing his hand on Satan Ye’s head... The shattered *First Wing Pillar* quickly replenished.

However, the previously unfurled *Wing Shatter* would still last for a while... The *Wing Shatter* of the First Wing Pillar provided a powerful buff for its duration, allowing significantly greater power than the *Wing* bearer.

Though he couldn’t stack wing shatters during this time, an empty wing slot could be filled first, ready for use once the duration ended.

The ultimate cheat.

Satan Ye·Moving Ammo Pack·Dan·Moving Armor Pack·Leaf... Grandly debuted!

...

The swiftly gathered White Wings Sect and Flame Demon Sect followers didn’t waste any words with Yila. They instantly launched their attack... The former charged, while the latter conjured countless fire attacks.

It was overwhelming and grand.

However, the theocratic country’s geographical position was a large island independent of the continent, to the west of the Empire and Demon King Territory, separated by the sea.

Hence, they weren’t well-versed in the millennia-old Empire-Demon King war.

Otherwise, they would have realized early on... For the strong in this world, human wave tactics were effective, so a few strong individuals couldn’t change the war’s outcome.

But Governors were exceptions, especially those with seats... Once the Death Trigger activated, the attacking army would collapse, but Yila wouldn’t even need that.

"You want to use sheer numbers to defeat me? Human wave tactics..."

*Yila muttered to himself, seeing Vera’s calm eyes (understanding Governors) and Satan Ye’s minor worry, he smiled wryly.*

"As I’ve said, why wouldn’t you even look at my profile? You underestimate me too much."

Yila said, blinking, as if he saw a group of Severia (Severia Alroyo: Don’t touch), or a son of Caligula he killed in a duel (Devont Caligula: Even death can’t escape?).

With that, Yila flapped his wings and soared into the sky, dodging all the flames...

...

The vast, magnificent burning wings seemed to obscure the sky.
