193.
"This is all the matter." After discussing various political affairs with the ministers, the Demon King, who took some time to lunch, met his daughter and her friends who came back from visiting the grave. Under his daughter's question, he told her the reasons for his decision to mobilize the army from getting the news to now. "When you know this, what are you going to do? Ailee?"
Ania shook her head. She was not going to do anything, she just wanted to know the causes and consequences of things, that's all.
"Since you have confirmed my safety, how do you plan to deal with the issue of military mobilization in the future? You can't just transfer the military around in just one word, right? Whether it is the ministers, ordinary soldiers and civilians, you are waiting for your decision."
The Demon King took action by the magic armed forces in the human imperial capital, and was very likely to threaten the safety of the demons as an excuse to mobilize the army to gather at the border. In fact, it was for the safety of his daughter. Now that his daughter has not encountered any danger, the reason for mobilizing the army will not exist - the Demon King has already learned from his daughter that the dispatch of the magic armed forces has nothing to do with the demons.
"The ambassador of the human race will come back here this afternoon. I will use the dispatch of magic weapons as a reason to mobilize the army to gather at the border and tell them that I have reached an opinion with the ministers and use this reason to test them directly. Then it depends on their reactions before making a decision." The Demon King planned to use this excuse to deal with people who are unaware of the matter. Once the human race hesitate to give in because of this reason, he will try to seek greater benefits for the demon race, such as deploying larger forces in some disputed places in the past; and if the human race has a tough attitude, he will also try to reach certain agreements with the human race with all his strength, such as to allow the demon race to open up some magic techniques that were forbidden to circulate in the past and some magic techniques of the demon race for exchange and research.
"I understand, these are things you need to consider, so I won't ask more questions." Ania nodded. She instantly saw through her father's thoughts and understood why he didn't tell her directly and clearly - because there was a brave man from the human race next to her. No matter how much the Demon King trusted his daughter, he could not trust his friends, especially this friend came from another race.
"Aili!" Seeing her daughter and the boy turn around and leave, the Demon King opened his mouth and hesitated and called out to his daughter.
"Yeah." Ania turned around and looked at her father who was not speaking, and tilted her head, "Do you want to ask about my study status?"
It was not stated clearly, but both the father and daughter knew that the daughter knew that the father wanted to ask how the magic techniques she had learned and whether she could teach them.
"Yes, how are you studying?" The devil's mouth curled slightly, then slightly turned his head to keep his eyes fixed on the figure of a boy in the center.
"It's okay." Ania looked at her father and said expressionlessly. "Although there are many courses that I don't understand very well, you can't help even if you tell you, so you'd better not ask."
The demon king's expression froze. He knew that his daughter was refusing to hand over the magical knowledge he had learned from the human race: "Aili, are you still hating me?"
Ania wanted to nod and admit that no one could forgive others' previous actions from the bottom of her heart because of an apology. However, after being secretly pulled the corner of her clothes by the boy, she finally gave up this idea.
"No. It's just that you really can't help with learning. Don't think I'm taking revenge on you just because I told the truth. This truth makes you uncomfortable. If you are really so fragile, then I will pay attention to not speaking so bluntly in front of you in the future."
The Demon King waved his hand with a dark face and signaled them to leave. He was afraid that if he continued to say it, he would not be able to control his emotions. He did not want to say something to reprimand his daughter because of his emotions that they had just recovered were torn apart again.
I felt that Ainia was too stiff. The boy who wanted to help her save a few words was pulled out by Ainia before she could speak.
"Aniya, what you said just now is a bit too much..."
"I know." Ania interrupted the boy's advice. She looked at the boy's eyes and had a very firm attitude. "But I can only do that, because he is not an ordinary father, nor is he asking about my learning situation like an ordinary father. Don't you know what I am learning?"
The boy was stunned for a moment, then fell silent. Ania sighed and walked forward slowly. The boy followed her and listened to her slap footsteps. After a while, he said, "Sorry, Ania."
"You don't need to apologize to me. I know you're doing it for my own good." Ania shook her head gently and asked, "Do you remember the demon clan we met in the mountains before we set out to the Brave Academy?"
"Well... do you think they are related?"
"Absolutely related." Ania replied very affirmatively, "I can even be sure that the demon clan that Xiweiya and the others met on the way to the Brave Academy was also related to this. Although I don't have definite evidence to prove it, my intuition tells me that it is definitely the case."
"Intuition... OK, it's the intuition of the Demon King after all." The boy wanted to complain about Ania's method of relying on intuition to decide the mastermind behind the scenes, but when he thought of her identity as a demon king, he was immediately discouraged. The intuition of the Demon King can often be used as a convincing explanation.
"In fact, it's not just intuition. For example, the news my father learned mentioned that the Demon King was discovered by the Human Emperor in the human race. The Demon we encountered should have recognized my identity. Although he is dead, I don't know if he has any special methods to deliver messages. Not to mention the escaped Demon spy that Xiweiya and the others met. The spy directly overhearded the conversation between Vini and Xiweiya..."
"My father must have noticed that this matter was not that simple. Someone deliberately gave him wrong information, which made him mistakenly think that I was in danger, causing him to mobilize his troops to gather at the border to achieve some purpose. However, it seems that finding the mastermind behind it is not the most important thing for him..."
"Aniya, are you going to investigate the secret behind this?"
"That's right, the next thing here has nothing to do with us anyway. We have not had time to experience it yet, so just find something to do." Although as a devil king, her father's right to speak in government affairs is after all, and Ania herself has no idea about politics. As long as she is sure that this matter will not develop in the worst direction, she feels that she has done a good job, and of course she doesn't want to waste time on these things in the future.
"Why do you suddenly want to participate in these things? Aren't you most afraid of trouble and going out?" The boy looked at Ania in surprise and asked.
"I'm afraid of trouble and hate going out, but now I'm not having to do anything..."
"Is it because there is no magic net here in the demon clan?" The young man frowned and noticed the core of the problem.
Of course, there is no magic net at all on the Demon Clan. There are naturally areas like the Capital, but the Internet speed is at least thirty years behind the Human Clan. Ainia, who is used to the Magic Nets on the Human Clan, cannot bear the speed here. Although she has a game console, she has no mood to play at all. The games that come with the game console are all small games with a short process. Ainia has been tired of playing it for a long time, and the new games need to be downloaded on the Magic Net.
Ania smiled at the boy mischievously, stuck out her tongue and ran away, obviously not wanting to discuss these with the boy more. The boy shook his head and sighed, followed slowly.
