How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!-Chapter 118 So That’s Their Plan?

After Rosavellt was called, she looked towards the side quickly. She had been thinking about something that happened a long time ago and she became so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice when her second in command called out to her. He was a dwarf that was excellent at using ranged weapons and he already brought out his arrows and he was ready to fire at the running undead at her command! He called her because she still hasn't given the command even though he has a clear shot!

"Madam Rosavellt! Should we open fire!? They're retreating! If we chase them now, we can take them down once and for all!"

Rosavellt immediately rose her hand in a signal to hold fire. The shock that passed through the faces of everyone there was immense! Why wasn't sure giving the order to open fire!? They could get rid of all the running undead at once! But even though they questioned her orders in their minds, they immediately put down their arrows and obeyed her order. None of them have any right to defy her orders and whatever she tells them is absolute.

Rosavellt didn't bother explaining herself to them. She still remembers the demon lord's orders. The army was only supposed to kill enough undead to chase them away and make them stop fighting. Containment instead of eradication. That was his order. Rosavellt was only following the demon lord's orders, so she told her men not to shoot.

Rosavellt placed her sword back in her spatial space and she told the army to move out and help the injured. They would be leaving soon so they shouldn't waste time.

.....

,m Floid watched Rosavellt ordering her soldiers around through one of his familiars. He could see the difficult expression on Rosavellt's face and Floid wondered how long it would take for her to crack. She was thinking of something, wasn't she? I wonder what's on her mind.

Rosavellt was a smart woman, but Floid could still read her easily. It was obviously difficult for her to cut down her own people. Is this how it is going to be throughout this war? Will she continue spacing out and second-guessing herself? That could lead to problems. Especially since the army is made up of demons. Demons don't like it when their commander is unsure of herself. Things can get ugly quickly.

Floid knew that Rosavellt would eventually change because of what he did. That was his plan all along and that is also why he put her as the commander. But Floid didn't know how she would change. Will she gravitate towards him or she will go to her people and leave him? Things can end either way. But, regardless of how this turns out, Floid already knows what he will do so he didn't have to be bothered at all.

Right now, Floid was looking down at the reports that Travy sent to him. Travy, the merchant that helped Floid to invade Aquinas by stopping their food supply, told Floid that Uta has locked out all outside influence from their kingdom. Uta has completely locked their kingdoms and they have prevented anybody from coming into or going out of the kingdom. And not only that, but Travy also wrote that Uta recalled all of their Grand commanders back to the kingdoms. Floid knew that the Grand commanders were the strongest humans in the army and it was a big deal if they were all called at the same time, but he wasn't bothered by that at all. Floid already knows how to handle the grand commanders! Floid's army is not weak and any single person from Floid's household can get rid of all the grand commanders on their own. Even Rizi wouldn't have any trouble with that at all. 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

Speaking of Rizi... Floid looked down under his desk and he saw Rizi swallowing his cock completely with a groan. She had her hands wrapped around the base and she looked like it was choking her a little but she was barely able to get it all in before she used her tongue to massage it as she came back out again while sucking it. Floid released a small groan as she did this and he put a hand on her head as he finally came inside her mouth and Rizi happily swallowed everything with a moan! She came out from under the desk and cleaned her mouth with a bow before going back to stand at the side of the table like always. It was her turn to take care of the demon lord's needs today and even though she knew she wasn't as good as Rosavellt or Pyra at pleasing the demon lord, Rizi was going to make sure he enjoyed his time with her to the maximum!

Floid gave her a small grin before he went back to thinking about the report that Travy sent. There was something that has been bothering him for some time now. Why would Priscilla lock down the entire kingdom like that? Uta is a very big kingdom and the amount of resources they need to survive is also monumental. If she locks down the kingdom, how the hell will they survive? It didn't make much sense to Floid. If Priscilla was really preparing for me, shouldn't she be stocking up on food and other resources while training her army so they can fight very well? It's a bad decision to lock down the kingdom. There has to be another reason for this. Is there something that I'm missing?

What if she is trying to hide something else? Floid hummed as he thought this. He leaned back in thought and Rizi noticed the thoughtful expression on his face. Rizi was the smartest out of all the members of the demon lord's house and she knew that if there was an issue that required critical thinking she would be the best person to help the demon lord, so she spoke out respectfully.

"My lord. Is there a problem? Maybe I can aid you?"

Floid looked at her with a raised brow. He was so deep in thought that he almost forgot she was even there. Can she help me? Well, she is really smart, so maybe she can help out with this issue. Floid told Rizi to come over and she walked towards him with her hands joined in front of her. She did b beside his table, but he dragged her even closer and made her sit on his lap. Rizi's face blew up in shock! It was so red that she thought she would pass out at that moment! But she immediately comported herself! How can she be so embarrassed in front of her lord!? She shouldn't be embarrassed to sit in his lap, they've done far more than this before!

Rizi was very small and she wasn't even up to half of Floid's height. It was very easy for Floid to carry her as he pointed to the paper.

"There was a recent lockdown around Uta. Tell me, what do you think this implies? I know you understand that it doesn't make sense either,"

Immediately after Floid said this, a hundred different scenarios ran through Rizi's mind at lightning speed. Many possibilities for why Uta locked their borders and also hundreds of ways it could be a coverup for something else. Rizi also came to the same conclusion as Floid that it didn't make sense. Any kingdom that was preparing for war should be stocking up on food, not locking out food. Kicking out all your traders is a bad move and nobody will benefit from it. That means there is another reason for their lockdown.

After thinking for a few moments, Rizi's eyes widened and she immediately looked toward Floid.

"My lord, I remember that you once spoke about a secret ritual that they perform in Uta. A summoning... I think," 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

It hit Floid like a house of bricks. His eyes widened slightly and he looked down at the paper for the second time. Damn, how the hell did I not see that? It is so obvious! Priscilla isn't training her army because she never intended to fight me in her kingdom! She wants to send out a hero to the demon side of Aradite and they will fight me here! Since she doesn't plan on fighting in her kingdom, she doesn't have to prepare for war

Floid always knew that Rizi is brilliant, but he was impressed that she was able to decipher all that from only this much info. He could only lean back with a smile.

Rizi looked up at him curiously to see if what she said was correct. She was only taking a guess and she had some other possibilities if the demon lord says that this one was wrong. Rizi knew that the demon lord was also very smart and he would know if her suggestions were wrong or not. But when she saw his smile, she knew that she wasn't wrong. She smiled.

"You're right, Rizi. It seems that Uta is summoning a hero. If they're hiding this much then the only possibility is that they don't want to be attacked before the hero arrives. They're like turtles hiding in their shells. They're waiting for the hero to be summoned before they start any war efforts,"

Rizi was surprised when she heard that. She was only sharing a suggestion before and she didn't know that they were summoning a hero! Does that mean they are trying to get rid of the demon lord!? Shouldn't we go and stop them?

"Don't worry about them. Let them summon their hero, I have no intention of stopping them. I'm more focused on other things right now,"

Floid could tell exactly what Rizi was thinking and he told her to ignore the humans in a calm tone. His eyes were looking past this room and towards the place where Rosavellt was busy organizing her army. Right now, Floid was focused on finishing his quests. I'll focus on the humans after I finish with the undead. The humans are all fools if they think that a mere hero will stop me from killing them.

I really thought that Priscilla already learned from the death of all her partners that I'm not going to stop at anything to get to her. But it seems that humanity's dependence is so great that she would rather call another hero instead of doing to fight me head-on. I'll tear down any hero standing between us, Priscilla. I'll tear the hero to pieces and I'll come and crucify you for your stupidity.
