Reincarnated to Bonk in Another World

Chapter 192: Important Discussion



Chapter 192: Important Discussion

While ignoring their reactions, Lilith continued to the core of the problem. "Anyway, I'm afraid we're going to be attacked soon."

"Yeah. I'm not good at politics, but I know how to fight. What do you want me to do?" Albert asked.

"Hmm. To be honest, I'm not that worried about the Gluttony Kingdom."

"For what reason?" Albert tilted his head in confusion.

It was clear that the Gluttony Kingdom would become a thorn in the Lust Kingdom's eyes, especially since they had a war with the Risourin Kingdom.

If they got pincered by the two kingdoms, the war would become even tougher. Hence, their next move should be considered carefully.

That was why looking at Lilith's nonchalant attitude toward the Gluttony Kingdom worried him a bit.

Still, Lilith's vision as a ruler had gone beyond the Gluttony Kingdom. She had predicted what would happen after their attack.

"Looking at how the Holy Kingdom doesn't attack Yale, I'm afraid they're trying to bid their time." Lilith mentioned the Holy Kingdom with a grim face, showing their importance.

"The Holy Kingdom?"

"Yeah. I'm afraid they're going to incite those five human kingdoms to unite. Obviously, the hero and the great sage could become an excuse to pull in two kingdoms. Even if we negotiate with them, it's impossible to stop them.

"At the same time, if we treat the hero and the great sage badly, it will just increase their anger, resulting in their overwhelming morale. When that happens, our loss will be uncountable."

When Albert listened to the explanation, he understood why Lilith thought this was a deadlock. Even if they returned the great sage and the hero, the human kingdoms could easily ignore the agreement and continue their battle. No, they might even attack them more aggressively.

In other words, the great sage and the hero had lost their importance in those people's eyes.

"" Albert thought for a moment and asked, "Can't we just exchange them for resources?"

"But your information will be spread. If they know how to deal with you, I'm afraid"

"Since we're already in this situation, I'm confident to use 9-Star Spell in a few months." Albert explained his power for a bit, signaling Lilith that he could be their trump card.

Not only Lilith, but the ministers were also dumbstruck by Albert's statement. Lilith rose from her throne and asked in disbelief. "Are you sure about that?"

"You have seen my progress. Is there a need for me to lie?"

"No, I mean" Lilith fell silent and looked down, recalling Albert's information. It was true that Albert was supposed to be powerless when he came to this world. Yet, he could become this strong in the span of few months.

Even the hero usually took a few years to reach at this level and another few years to polish their strength.

"According to the record, the previous great sage used his entire life to pursue the truth and still lost against the previous succubus queen" Lilith muttered before looking at Albert once again. "If you can surpass that 10-Star Magician That's right. If you can become a 10-Star Magician, everyone will be afraid of you.

"A demon king No, you might even be able to rule over all seven demon kingdoms and ascend as the true ruler of the demons, the DEMON LORD!" Lilith clutched her hands in excitement.

The ministers sucked a cold breath. Their bodies trembled when Lilith said those two words.

Demon Lord was the term described in the legend. It was said that after a period of darkness, there was a demon who was so strong that he united all other demons under his banner to resist an unknown force.

His friend, the legendary human emperor, also helped him in repelling that unknown force. After they saved the continent, the Demon Lord and the Human Emperor ruled the continent. The demons in the west and the humans in the east.

When Lilith mentioned the Demon Lord, the ministers looked at Albert, doubting if such a man could become the Demon Lord or not.

"Demon Lord?" Albert tilted his head in confusion. "I'm not going to be someone like that. I just want to go on an adventure and enjoy my life to the fullest. For that, I don't mind using my power to keep the peace"

"Exactly." Lilith smiled and pointed at Albert. "There's no need for you to care about the situation. Me and the other demon kings can handle those stuff. All you need to do is become a banner that unites all of us!"

"No way. I'm not going to do that. How can I enjoy the adventure if others always worship me!" Albert snorted, looking away. "It's useless if you threaten me with Yale's case. I won't do it!"

"" Lilith fell silent while scratching the back of her head. However, she suddenly came up with a ridiculous story. "The braves will usually be summoned when the humans are in a perilous situation. Normally, the threat comes from the demon kingdoms.

"However, the fact you also appear together with those human braves means there is something that endangers both the humans and the demons! That's why I believe we're in the middle of the danger which should come from the period of darkness, the Lunar Era!

"I know that you won't agree with me, but if there is a threat like that, I wish for you to stand up for the demons and become our hope."

"" Albert's eyebrows twitched as he looked at her with an annoyed expression.

"He looks annoyed." One of the ministers whispered loud enough that everyone could hear it.

Albert couldn't help but snap. "Of course, I am! I don't want to get a heavy burden like that! I just want to be free and be happy!"

Lilith made a wry smile as she almost forgot Albert's real intention. The hope Albert showed was just too big that she couldn't resist the temptation.

"I understand. Let's just forget about this for the time being." Lilith scratched the back of her head, apologized to Albert. "Let's just go back with the matter at hand. Anyway, the Gluttony Kingdom shouldn't be a problem for us. All I want you to do is to hit a few thousand soldiers and my soldiers will handle the rest.

"Since the situation in the Risourin Kingdom's border is controlled by us, we can spare some soldiers there. But the problem will be the human kingdoms. How are we going to stop five human kingdoms at once?" Lilith presented the problem to him. "You said you can become a 9-Star Magician in a few months. Unfortunately for you, it's not easy to hold for that long especially if the other demon kingdoms join the fight. If we become the sole target, the Lust Kingdom can only hold out for one month and that will also reduce our territory to this one castle."

Albert looked down for a moment, imagining that kind of situation. He could clearly see the desperate faces of the people around him.

"Do you have any information about the humans? Can we plant some spies among them?"

"Well, we do have some information, but it's hard for us to infiltrate that deep, especially into the royal family. At best, we can get some information from the nobles, but that's it."

"Hmm." Albert thought for a moment and asked, "What about the hero and the great sage? Do they know anything?"

"The hero is so f*cking useless. As for the rest, we've extracted some of the information. But the great sage seems to have planted some seals in his head to prevent us from extracting the information. We are planning to torture him, but there's a situation over there" Lilith looked away, feeling troubled.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"He told me that he will give us all the information as long as he gets the power of bonk. In other words, he wants to become your student like Yale."

"" Albert was speechless to the point he facepalmed, wondering what the heck was wrong with the great sage's head. "Does he not have any attachment to the human kingdom?"

"No. He said even though he's allowed in the high-level meeting, he's treated like sh*t because of the hero. If he can become your student, he doesn't mind joining our side."

"For real?" Albert widened his eyes in amusement.

"He told me that since you came from another world the same world as him, it meant you were a human too. Is that true?" Lilith asked with a concerned expression, afraid Albert would switch sides because he was a former human.

"" Albert fell silent. His breathing became heavy as that question reminded him of his past. He sighed, "Even if I told you, I would be staying on this side, you wouldn't believe me. To be honest, I'm not at anyone's side As long as I'm happy with my journey, I'm fine on anyone's side For now, I should be in the neutral side, I guess? If the demons want to kill me, I will slay them. If the humans want to kill me, I won't hesitate to do the same."

The atmosphere became awkward as it was a bit too hard for them to accept Albert's answer.

"Well, as long as the demons and humans can get along, I don't really care much. Peace is great. At least for me." Albert smiled.

"Uhm, sorry." Lilith glanced left and right, wondering what she should say.

"Anyway, can you reach the great sage right now? Let me discuss something with him.. At the very least, I should be responsible for my student's actions."
