A day later, the devil world, the king city.
Cecily flipped through books written in human script, which recorded the few knowledge related to magic in the demon world.
The above knowledge is only the most basic magic. It is very simple for Cecily to learn, but the innate talent of the Chaos Demon is to "destroy" magic, and the spells carefully constructed by the casters are useless in front of them.
This also makes Chaos Demon look down upon in combat against spellcasters.
But it's a pity that even if Cecily can defeat more spellcasters, it can't solve the problem of famine in the king's city.
"His Royal Highness, the monitors have already headed to the territory of the four dukes. At present, we know that the plants in the water element lord's territory have not been affected by the 'plague'."
The Prophet came to the dust-covered library with a book that was almost half the height of her body, and stood on tiptoe and reluctantly placed the book on the table in front of Cecily.
"Lord of the water element? The edge of the demon world... I remember that part of that land is suitable."
Sehiri straightened the book for the Prophet, and opened one of the pages that recorded the map of the Demon World.
The sections of this map can only be described as "rounded to the point that it doesn't seem like a natural formation".
The territories of the four dukes are located on the edge of the demon world, and one of the powerful water elements occupies a corner of the territory.
There is the "ocean" of the demon world, but there are isolated islands and beaches in the ocean.
"But the cost of transporting the bad demons and horned demons to the edge of the sea is too high, and if the land is cultivated now, it will take the next year to harvest, Your Highness... um... Please wait a moment."
The Prophet stood on tiptoe to see the map on the table, but unfortunately she was still too short.
Finally, the Prophet ran to a chair next to him, and with great effort did he move the chair to the table as a stepping stone and stepped on it, only then did he see which book was spread out on the table.
The Prophet stretched out his hand and pointed to a corner of the map.
"I suggest that you can communicate with the Duke of Black Dragon and let the soldiers go hunting in its territory."
"Duke Black Dragon... He's not that good at communicating, but if necessary, I'll let him understand his situation in the Demon World."
Cecily put her hand on the long sword on her waist. The duke in the other corner of the demon world is a powerful black dragon. There are no subjects in his territory, only prey...
The inhabitants of the demon world want to step into the territory of the Duke of the Black Dragon. Unless he gives his permission, anyone will be burned to rubbish by the dragon's breath.
Going to the Black Dragon Duke's territory to get food is the last resort for Cecily, because it is not an easy thing to make a black dragon succumb.
"His Royal Highness, there is actually another way..." Before the Prophet could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Cecily raising her hand.
Sehiri knew what the other method the Prophet was referring to was "to plunder the world of men."
She has also considered this method, but it also means that the demon world has to formally start a full-scale war with humans. If it is not handled properly, it will only make the famine in the royal city worse.
At this time, a text message from the magic net appeared in front of Sehili's eyes. This text message came from Joshua... And now Sehiri can only hope that Joshua has found a businessman who is willing to trade with the Devil.
"Good morning, eldest sister... Yesterday, I discussed with a number of merchants in Nolan for a while. Several of them have channels to sell a large amount of food, and two of them agreed to let the apprentices you recommend go to their magic machinery. The factory learns related technologies, and the dean of a high magic academy in Nolan is also willing to accept the seekers of the demon world. I have already asked my subordinate Zenas to prepare the portal. Don't worry, the Duke of Bones will warmly welcome those who visit her territory, your brother Joshua."
Joshua's text message was in the form of a very formal letter, probably because Cecily was busy with her official business, and she didn't want Cecily to be immersed in the text messages.
Cecily originally wanted to send a text message to greet Joshua, but seeing that Joshua's letter was so complete, Cecily could only start thinking about business.
"Prophet, I have already thought about a solution." Cecily closed the message with a wave of her hand, and looked at the very young demon in front of her.
"Please say, Her Royal Highness," the Prophet pushed the wooden-frame glasses on the bridge of his nose and was ready to accept the order of Sergei.
"Whether it's going to the water element lord's territory to reclaim land, or going to the Black Dragon Duke's territory to hunt, I can do all these tasks," she said.
"No, the location you are going to next is Shadowtwilight Forest, the domain of the Skeleton Duke."
Cecily stretched out her hand and pointed to the corner of the map closest to the human world, a forest filled with the dead.
"Shadowwood Forest? Her Royal Highness Cecily, this forest is shrouded in the aura of death, and it is impossible to grow any living plants."
"I know, the purpose of your going to Shadowtwilight Forest is not to cultivate new crops." Cecily put the book that recorded human magic on the table and said to the prophet, "but to the human city of Nolan, to Learn about magic."
"Go to Nolan?"
The Prophet is no stranger to this city. As a rare demon in the demon world who has studied magic, she is full of curiosity about the city of Nolan.
The city of Nolan contains far more magical knowledge than any human city, not to mention the ancient magic that spellcasters have spent hundreds of years researching, as well as the newly emerging magical mechanical technology.
"But haven't humans always rejected our family?"
When the prophet learned that she was able to go to Nolan for further study, the expression on her face was still very calm. The first thing she thought of was the hatred of human beings for demons.
"Of course I know the attitude of human beings towards our family, but recently, under the influence of my brother, Nolan seems to have changed a little bit. A higher magic academy is willing to accept demons as students." Cecily looked at the shadows in the shadow forest on the map. The location then says "And the portal to Nolan is in Shadowtwilight."
"His Royal Highness Cecily, are you sure this is not some kind of... conspiracy between your brother and humans?"
The Prophet asked this question in a cold tone, which was likely to make Sehiri fall into anger. Sehiri looked at the demon who looked young but was able to maintain poise under her own eyes.
"I can't rule out this possibility, so the prophet uses your eyes to confirm that our family has been hiding in the demon world for too long, so continuing to close our vision will eventually usher in destruction, so the prophet... I need to use your Eyes know all the changes in the human world now." Sergei gave an order full of mission.
"clear."
The Prophet accepted the order without much hesitation.
"Go on your mission, Overseer," Cecily said.
The Prophet nodded, then put away the ancient book on the table, held her heavy ancient book in his arms again, jumped off the small bench and walked towards the door.
Cecily watched as her petite body staggered and disappeared into the corner of the library.
