After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King
Chapter 80 - 79 Demon Trainer... Monkey Master

Chapter 80: Chapter 79 Demon Trainer... Monkey Master

The monkeys collected fruits from the mountains, piling them up. The fruits at the bottom, squeezed by the weight of the ones above, burst and produced fruit juice. Meanwhile, the upper fruits blocked oxygen, causing the juice to react with the wild yeast attached to the fruit skins and turned into wine.

This was the so-called Monkey Wine, which, in Yila’s previous world, along with Selene’s Spine Correction Garments and the supposedly dementia-preventing Brain Blue Gold, was heavily hyped.

But at least Monkey Wine was still regular wine... fruit wine.

The taste seemed to have a kind of fresh fragrance.

"Sniff~"

Yila lightly sniffed the somewhat murky fruit wine inside the tree hole, pushed the fruit aside and threw it to the ground, then dabbed a little to taste it... it was worth mentioning that the Governor did not drink alcohol.

*Well, at least neither Yila nor the Governor of the Elkaras Family drank, after all, alcohol would harm the Governor’s super rationality, and any crack could easily lead to feelings of anger for the Governor.*

*That would be the beginning of mutation.*

*However, the wine in this world was not something that easily made people drunk either, given the productivity and the technological level... Though some mages used flame distillation for purifying potions, which could also be used for increasing the alcohol level.*

Yose liked drinking... after drinking, he would say some very strange things that even Yila, a transmigrator from his old world, found odd.

*For instance: "Lord Yila! It’s raining and thundering! Isabella must be very scared; go comfort my daughter!,"* *but at that time, Isabella was already thirteen or fourteen years old, and if Yila really went over, he might only see her puzzled eyes.*

"Very sweet."

Yila licked the wine liquid, a peculiar fresh sweetness filled his mouth, while the taste of the wine was somewhat light, but it still fit the palate of the people in this world.

*Wine... sweetness...*

*Monkeys... brewing?* *Thinking about something, Yila looked toward the Insect Leader and Hilena nearby. Amid their curious gazes, he asked,* "Do the demons in the Demon King Territory have a habit of drinking?"

"Mostly no, I... along with Senata and the little fairies might count as liking to drink, others might occasionally have some, but it’s not a necessity since Blue Gill Mushroom can’t be used for brewing wine, and there’s only a little surplus grain for Mr. Lime to make wine."

Regarding Rainbow Shell the Insect Leader’s words, Yila gently nodded... In other words, the Slimes did make wine, but they were already somewhat busy now.

The process of handling the trees took enough time already.

Thinking so, Yila picked up a fermented fruit from the ground, from its rotted skin and flesh, he could hardly tell what kind of fruit it was... but he didn’t need to know, as the same fruits were growing on the trees around him.

From their appearance and size, it seems they were these distinctive sweet wines after fermenting.

Noticing Yila’s gaze direction, Rainbow Shell, who knew quite a lot about fruits, spoke up to explain, "That’s called ’White Ball,’ very sour and has many seeds, what’s the matter?"

Indeed, aside from Blue Gill Mushroom, the Insect-man Clan’s menu mainly included fruits and vegetables, so they should have extensive knowledge of forest foods.

"You try White Ball Wine."

Yila said this while finding a white ball that had fallen to the ground, and crushed it underfoot. He saw the insides filled with white seeds like dense rice grains.

Rainbow Shell, Hilena, and Satan Ye curiously tried the wine made from White Ball. Rainbow Shell and Hilena simultaneously raised their eyebrows, while Satan Ye smacked his lips, stuck out his tongue, and curled his tail slightly.

It seemed Satan Ye didn’t much like the taste of the wine.

"Refreshing and sweet... truly fascinating."

Rainbow Shell said this, looking at the surrounding White Ball Fruit Trees, surprised at the very sour fruit turning into sweet wine after fermenting, while Hilena thought further.

"If brewed into wine, it should become an excellent product."

Hilena said this, her eyes shining as she gazed at the surrounding trees, "Soon we are preparing for our first long-distance trade. Let’s open the trade route with White Ball Wine."

"When I get back, I’ll talk to Mr. Lime about the wine and ask him to try brewing with White Ball Fruit. If successful, this special wine should be welcomed by many countries."

This idea was similar to Yila’s, aside from the dwarves who liked more potent wine, other races and nations would probably be very pleased with such sweet fruit wine. But Yila thought of a better idea.

"Satan Ye, stop for a moment..."

Upon Yila’s reminder, as Satan Ye was swiftly slaughtering monkey bodies, she turned her head, wiped the blood off her face, and blinked, asking, "What’s the matter?"

"..."

The monkey group was almost entirely slaughtered. They had lost all will to resist, their eyes filled only with fear, trembling and moving away from Satan Ye, making *squeak*, *squeak-squeak* sounds.

Of course, they couldn’t escape due to being surrounded by the Insect Men.

"Since these monkeys can brew wine, maybe they have some value."

Yila looked at the remaining hundreds of monkeys. Observing them avoiding his gaze, he asked, "Hilena, have any Little Demons become Demon Dog Trainers?"

The Demon Dog Trainer was a type of demon soldier that could demonicize some common creatures for their use. Despite its name, it could train more than just dogs.

And naturally, they evolved from Little Demons.

Short Demons, Demon Soldiers, Demon Dog Trainers, Little Flame Demons, Little Shadow Demons... were the most basic evolution paths, later developing into different branches, but for small monkeys, even basic Demon Dog Trainers were sufficient to tame them.

"More than ten."

Struggling to keep up with Yila’s pace, Hilena answered and then took some time to understand Yila’s intention. She realized and said, "Indeed, the Slimes’ numbers are no longer enough to shoulder the brewing mission."

But by this time, Yila was already discussing with Rainbow Shell about capturing the monkeys alive and bringing them back to the Demon King Territory.

"..."

Hilena fell slightly silent; she glanced at Satan Ye who was showing a worshipful expression toward Yila. She didn’t know how to express her thoughts... she almost understood why Yila was ostracized in the Empire.

*Working with Yila often made one feel useless, realizing one’s knowledge level was insufficient, feeling slow in reactions... It seemed no matter where he went, he could come up with strategies to strengthen the national power of the Demon King Territory.*

...

*But it was truly fortunate he came to the Demon King Territory... Perhaps such thinking was the greatest difference between the Empire and the Demon King Territory.*
