Clyde and Lucifer discovered the traces of some of this different world’s underground races as well as the remains of the mayor of Benson Town. In the end, that fellow had met an unfortunate end. From the pitiful state of his remains, he had died in the hands of the insect men monsters (humanoid cockroaches).

However, Lucifer found an intact map among the remains detailing the underground sewer area. The only regret was that they didn’t find his hand bone and were thus unable to recover the storage rings worn on his fingers. It seemed that this private property of the mayor would become a lost treasure.

Clyde carefully looked at the map that appeared to have been drawn long ago. The paper was old and wrinkled. In addition, it only revealed this small underground sewer area, nothing more. There were no records of an underground construction built by underground ratmen or insect men monsters, so this map wasn’t very useful for Clyde. However, it did reveal how the mayor had died. Clearly, the mayor had never thought that there would be any humanoid monsters here, so when he had been ambushed, he had been caught unguarded and killed before he could put up any resistance.

It was impossible for Clyde to ignore the humanoid monsters hiding here. While rebuilding the Needham Plains, knowing that there were over 400,000 humanoid monsters underground, furthermore such disgusting types, it would be hard to be at ease. Clyde and Lucifer turned back, planning to fully prepare before returning. Now, they were only two people, so dealing with so many monsters would be a difficult task.

After returning to the underground part of Kelifu Prison, Clyde informed the mayor’s female family members of his death. It turned out that several other male family members had gone together with the mayor, but it seemed that the ends of those men had been even more tragic as even their remains hadn’t been found. After seeing the mayor’s seal, the womenfolk couldn’t stop crying. Although he had fled at the critical moment and tossed them away, he was still their family.

“Cough, cough! Madam, please restrain your grief and accept this inevitable loss. When we arrived, we only found this. I will deal with those underground humanoid monsters. If I leave them alone, they will affect the world above sooner or later.”

“Mas… master, please help us get revenge!”

“No problem. This is not a difficult matter.”

Clyde’s consolation endlessly moved those few young ladies. As if they had forgotten Clyde was a devil and that they were in completely bare, alluring states now, they profusely thanked him. Looking at their current expressions, it seemed that if Clyde suggested something, they would agree no matter how wicked the request. They would devote themselves on the spot without the least hesitation and offer their everything for this devil to enjoy.

Although Clyde was not a good person, and he had taken advantage of others’ difficulties many times, the current environment was not suitable for bad deeds. Otherwise, he might have taken this opportunity to make these few young ladies give him some wicked services. After appeasing their feelings, Clyde and Lucifer left the underground prison. Before parting, Clyde made those shadow monsters under him closely monitor the entrance of the underground sewer to guard against those humanoid monsters. While exploring before, he hadn’t met the other party, so he was uncertain about how much of the underground sewers were under the control of those underground monsters.

“Eh, Lord Clyde, you are back! Do you wish to do that again…!”

“Miss Anna, if you act like this, then I will surely take you away.”

“Don’t! I was wrong, just joking! Lord Clyde, forgive me!”

In the mayor residence of Benson Town, Clyde and Lucifer met Miss Anna, this blonde blue eyed-eyed Miss with a charming expression. Although she wore a magician’s robe, her lapel was wide open, revealing a large amount of white skin inside. Coupled with her seductive expression, Anna made Clyde want to push her down again. After Clyde pinched Anna’s elastic butt, her expression changed, and she looked at Clyde with a more honest gaze.

For this operation to pass through the Leopold Lake Area, Clyde was basically determined to advance from the underground route. To secure that path, he had to first forcibly drive out Earl Gerard’s forces from Benson Town. Now, Benson Town was the basecamp of Earl Gerard’s united army. It was comparatively difficult to make them withdraw using Steinbeck Fief’s army, so he decided to use the monster army under him to drive them out.

Clyde made Lucifer return to Ian Village overnight and asked her to inform Undead Queen Lafania and her younger sister Cursed Queen Memphis to lead their 160,000 monsters from their alien civilization to battle. As for himself, he would remain in Benson Town as he had just received some important information from Miss Anna. This evening, Miss Anna had been invited to participate in an important aristocrat party held in Benson Town’s most luxurious hotel, Service Hotel.

Originally, Clyde had had no interest in such parties and banquets, but this time, the representatives of the three parties fighting for Leopold Lake, Earl Gerard, Earl Fred and Earl Edgar, would show up to conduct a secret meeting about the Leopold Lake Area under the guise of this aristocrat party.

In the human nations of Victor Alliance, because the wars between local aristocrats were funded by behind-the-scenes financial backers, fights to the death generally never appeared. Soon, they would engage in a staged fight as they privately entered secret peace talks to form secret contacts. As long as terms that satisfied all parties could be reached, they would casually look for a reason to stop fighting and quickly act out some public negotiations before sticking to their tacitly agreed upon contract.

As for the human nations of Clark Alliance, battles between local Suzerains and aristocrats were real, unlike the pretend fights in Victor Alliance. Over there, they would fight until they knocked the other party down and thoroughly captured their position. This led to the armies of Clark Alliance being unusually skilled in offensive fights. As for Victor Alliance’s armies, because of their many pretend fights, they were decent at defensive warfare. Attacking, however, was not even worth mentioning. In the wars between these two large camps, the nations of Victor Alliance could basically only passively defend, never daring to take the initiative. Since they usually always played pretend warfare, during true desperate fights, the soldiers of Victor Alliance’s human nations would often break.

The three earls had been fighting in the Leopold Lake Area for a long time. It could be estimated that the behind-the-scenes backers, Adrian Empire’s three tycoon clans, were dissatisfied and were secretly cooperating for peace talks. After all, warfare had no real benefit unless the scale of war was enlarged to increase trade. The number of weapons that this small scale war required had already been saturated. The three earls’ troops wouldn’t need to purchase new weapons in the short-term. Continuing with war wouldn’t bring these three tycoon clans much more profit, so they could only choose to stop this warfare to conserve manpower.

Clyde pretended to be Miss Anna’s personal guard and accompanied her to Service Hotel to participate in this secret meeting of three earls. In fact, Anna had only been invited to the aristocrat’s party, not the secret meeting of three earls. She herself had almost no power. She had been invited just to deceive the public.

“Lord Clyde, isn’t this evening dress too conservative? Weren’t the previous ones very…”

“Anna, don’t wear those evening dresses in front of outsiders. Wear them only in front of me. Do you understand my meaning?”

“Mmm, I understand.”

In their carriage heading towards Service Hotel, Clyde and Anna sat facing each other. She wore a pure-white evening ball dress. It was very conservative, which puzzled her a little. Those few evening dresses she had chosen before had all revealed her shoulders and back. In addition, the chest areas had had deep V cuts. They were sexy open-ended evening dresses that had revealed her gully. After seeing this, Clyde had made her change into a more conservative evening dress. No matter what was said, this young lady could be regarded as one of his women. When he thought that other men would get the full benefit of seeing her white and fair skin, Clyde couldn’t help feeling out of sorts, so he could only inconvenience Miss Anna for the time being.

Service Hotel was located behind the town center. Built at the lakeside of the large artificial lake, Andy Lake, it was very secluded. Allegedly, this hotel had been built in such an area to provide eroticly natured services.

In the human nations of Victor Alliance, the erotic industry was completely legal. Its scale of operation was almost the same as that of the slave trade industry in Clark Alliance. This was considered an open secret among the human nations of Victor Alliance. The demarcations between the erotic industry and the slave trade industry was very blurred; it was very difficult to distinguish between them. The erotic trade had become a grey area that was difficult for alliance law to regulate.

Although the relations between Victor Alliance and Clark Alliance had always been confrontational, the tycoon clans that dealt with those red-light districts had close cooperative ties with slave traders. Countless people were completely clueless about the secret transactions between them. It was very difficult for outsiders to know these secrets, and the reason they needed such secrecy had always been a mystery.

“Lord Clyde, we are near the entrance of Service Hotel. If you need time to think, I’ll go first to keep the appointment.”

“Eh, we reached it so quickly! Anna, get off the carriage first; I’ll get off a little later. Now, I’m acting as your escort guard. It’d be too suspicious if we got off the carriage side by side.”
