Chapter 308: Chapter 193: Holy Shit, You Stupid * (5)

```

Luo Meng’s body jolted upright, his head nearly hitting the ceiling.

"Damn wench, who allowed you to refuse on my behalf?"

Luo Meng couldn’t help but want to curse out loud.

Because of Candice’s words, he had taken a liking to that mysterious person he had yet to meet. Even though it was just a filthy human, they were clever and capable of providing important intelligence. Most importantly, their taste was not bad.

If this person were to help, his achievements would grow, and his reputation among demons would rise.

In time, a great number of demon masters would flock to his side, and toppling his father to become the true Demon King wouldn’t be impossible... Demons lived exceedingly long lives, and who knows how long it would take for that old man to die of natural causes. Luo Meng wasn’t that patient.

Of course, once his father abdicated, he would surely arrange all his affairs properly.

And yet such a good opportunity was rejected by Candice? Despicable.

Seeing the surprised look on Candice’s face, Luo Meng realized his reaction might have been a bit inappropriate, and he coughed awkwardly, "Cough cough, Candice, you... you... you did well, um, very well, extremely well."

"To even think of toppling my father is truly an act of immense treachery."

"As a prince, I should personally take action and bring him to justice."

"However, considering his merits towards me, I won’t hold it against him. By the way, don’t make decisions on my behalf in the future, consult me on anything before proceeding."

Candice almost laughed out loud at Luo Meng’s reaction. This guy, it’s as if his thoughts are written all over his face. Could it be that Luo Meng actually believes he’s already the Demon King?

He hadn’t even noticed that he was already referring to himself as ’I, the king’ on reflex.

If someone like Luo Meng were to become the Demon King, the demons would really be doomed.

Suppressing the impulse in his heart, Luo Meng sat down again, sensing that his previous reaction was a bit improper: "Cough cough... Alright, I, the prince... accept his request, we can cooperate."

"Now, can you tell me his intelligence?"

"Of course," Candice immediately nodded: "According to that mysterious person, it’s not just the Hero Team member Ronald who has entered the Demon Territory, but also one of the Twin Thieves, Erin."

Luo Meng’s eyes suddenly brightened—two Hero Team members meant two credits for achievement.

"It’s precisely because a Thief Saint has constantly been aiding Ronald in hiding, that you’ve been unable to detect them... However, while Erin can help Ronald remain hidden, she’s unable to break through your multilayered blockade. Currently, they should still be trapped within the Third Princess’s domain."

Luo Meng fell into deep thought. This was indeed important intelligence, but just knowing this didn’t seem enough to capture Ronald and Erin immediately.

Candice sighed at Luo Meng’s expression, massaging her forehead lightly before continuing, "Lord Luo Meng, can you now narrow down Ronald’s approximate location on your side?"

Luo Meng nodded his large head: "Yes, no matter how cautious, a human’s scent is quite distinctive in the demon’s realm. It’s not difficult to roughly determine Ronald’s location, but every time I look closely, Ronald manages to slip away..."

"So, that gentleman’s suggestion is not to search meticulously anymore..." Candice smiled, "Although it might be a bit wasteful, why not gather thousands, tens of thousands of demons capable of using magic, and launch an indiscriminate assault on that area once you’ve confirmed the approximate location?"

"The Thief Saint’s stealth abilities are incredibly powerful, and even demons with sharp vision can’t see through them."

"However, even if they can hide their tracks, they can’t avoid an indiscriminate attack. Once the attack reaches them, their hiding place will be exposed."

"At that point, wouldn’t those two be like lambs to the slaughter?"

"Perhaps, the Thief Saint has ways to escape, but Ronald will definitely not get away."

This was a method Lord Horus had specifically devised for Luo Meng... Simple and brutal, because anything too complex, Luo Meng might not understand.

Luo Meng’s eyes shone brighter, indeed, this was a very feasible method: "Cough cough, I, the prince... had also thought the same, his idea coincides with mine, indeed, coincides."

"Then, go back and tell him that once I capture Ronald, I will hand him over for personal torture. I also hope he can provide me with more useful intelligence."

"I understand... Ah, right, Prince, that gentleman also mentioned that before handing over Ronald, he hopes you could treat him well," Candice remembered something and hastily added.

Treat well?

This made Luo Meng somewhat displeased.

After finally capturing him, was he supposed to be wined and dined?

Was this about detaining a criminal or hosting a distinguished guest?

Candice sighed with some helplessness, "I think what that gentleman means is, you can take your time torturing Ronald. After all, they have deep-seated grudges; as long as you leave Ronald alive, it should suffice."

...

Meanwhile.

The newly formed Hero Team, after many days of preparation, finally set out.

Karlin was temporarily entrusted to Nadia’s close friend, Miss Louisa, in the hopes that she wouldn’t pick up any bad habits.
