I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

#196 - Asking for a stick

“Oh?” O’Kee-Bokee showed no intention of stepping aside, sizing up the Slaughter Sea Butterflies, unsure which one housed Boody-Bogg.

Although Li Yue couldn’t predict O’Kee-Bokee’s actions through the Demon Compendium, just seeing how his cloth bag was shaking erratically, he knew that this Gambling Demon had designs on the Staff of Deception—Li Yue naturally didn’t intend to hand over the Demon Relic he had painstakingly snatched, and spoke with absolutely no leniency.

Anyway, O’Kee-Bokee still needed Boody-Bogg to participate in tomorrow night’s competition, so he probably wouldn’t tear up the agreement at this time.

“You really are different now… daring to talk to me like that?” O’Kee-Bokee searched for Boody-Bogg for a long time, and the cloth holes filled with mosquitoes and flies began to examine the Slaughter Sea Butterflies one by one, seemingly trying to find the one filled with loot.

“Pay attention to protection,” Li Yue telepathically communicated to his own demons, and the shadows on the ground also began to flap.

“Ha… Son of a Demon, huh?” O’Kee-Bokee naturally recognized the few external aids from the Repository of Knowledge, and also pointed at Galarick, “What benefits did Boody-Bogg give you?”

Yingying and Redcoat ignored him, and Dandan wanted to pick a fight, but was stopped by Li Yue, who told it not to make trouble.

“Oh, you have a tacit understanding? Did Scoleric do all this?” O’Kee-Bokee released flies, observing the reactions of the Sea Butterflies from countless angles, seemingly looking for Li Yue’s location.

The Sea Butterflies didn’t move.

“The Repository of Knowledge is different too, huh? They’re all very obedient…” O’Kee-Bokee mocked.

O’Kee-Bokee blocking the way was mainly to snatch the Staff of Deception, and secondly, he also wanted to probe Boody-Bogg’s mutation—the Repository of Knowledge had exceeded expectations in terms of both combat power and performance, and O’Kee-Bokee was eager to know if it would affect his plan for tomorrow night.

“Tell me, what’s different,” Li Yue, seeing that O’Kee-Bokee didn’t dare to fall out, firmly grasped the spoils and prepared to resolve the situation through negotiation.

“Found a lot of helpers, robbed the Jackalweirds’ Demon Relic, and pursued mutation in the Slaughter Cup… What do you want to do? Rebel?” After watching today’s Slaughter Cup, O’Kee-Bokee felt a hint of vigilance towards the Repository of Knowledge.

And this was exactly what Li Yue wanted—with vigilance comes fear, and regardless of the outcome of tomorrow’s final, Li Yue needed to make the forces in the Demon King City fear the Repository of Knowledge, not daring to offend it easily.

“None of your business?” In front of the King of the Colosseum, Li Yue resolutely defended the honor of the Brain Spirit Master.

In reality, Boody-Bogg was already invisible among the Slaughter Sea Butterflies, and if Li Yue hadn’t controlled him with the contract, he would have abandoned his companions and run away long ago.

“If you have something to say, say it, and if you have to fart, do it quickly, I, Boody-Bogg, don’t have time to waste here with you.” Since O’Kee-Bokee didn’t forcefully snatch it, Li Yue felt that he could end this farce quickly.

“That staff, give it to me.” O’Kee-Bokee stretched out his cloth bag hand again, truly craving the Staff of Deception, and the mosquitoes and flies began to dance wildly, like the chaotic thoughts of the King of the Colosseum.

Now Li Yue was even more curious about the effect of the Staff of Deception—could this thing be of great help to O’Kee-Bokee? Otherwise, why would he ask for it so clumsily?

“I won’t give it to you, come and take it yourself if you have the ability…” Li Yue didn’t expect that one day his communication with a high-ranking demon… would be like children fighting over things, “Or… do you want to fight me? Here?”

O’Kee-Bokee’s mosquitoes and flies swayed wildly, obviously meaning something.

Although Galarick didn’t know what Boody-Bogg said, seeing O’Kee-Bokee’s reaction, he subconsciously raised his weapon, without the slightest fear; but Redcoat seemed to always be the silent one, even after being promoted to Red Robe Bishop, he didn’t show any desire to stand out.

Seeing Galarick’s reaction, Li Yue was quite surprised—this knight was reliable, and could really ride anything.

At this moment, Galarick was riding the headless corpse of the Jackalweird leader, and the wide contestant passage was a bit cramped for him, and the wolf-tooth club in his hand couldn’t be swung freely.

“You want to fight? Aren’t you afraid of any accidents in tomorrow night’s Slaughter Cup?” Li Yue continued in Boody-Bogg’s tone, “The City Lord will come tomorrow night, right? How will you explain it then?”

Thinking this, Li Yue still tried his best to call back O’Kee-Bokee’s sanity.

【City Lord… Slaughter Cup… Tomorrow night… Expeditionary Force… Staff of Deception… Deception… Attack…】

O’Kee-Bokee’s inner thoughts were in chaos, and Li Yue found it difficult to sort out the logic.

“You guys go.” O’Kee-Bokee seemed to have figured it out, chuckled, and moved his bloated cloth bag body aside, and the armors also cleared the way.

Li Yue was skeptical, and Redcoat took the lead, and Li Yue hurriedly pulled the Slaughter Sea Butterflies to follow, leaving while displaying the “farewell forever” formation in the common demon language.

Seeming unable to restrain the anger in his heart, O’Kee-Bokee’s fly swarm erupted when Galarick passed by, shattering the headless corpse of the Jackalweird leader, and also shattering Galarick’s bones!

Fortunately, Li Yue was prepared, and controlled the Sea Butterflies to move away when the malice attacked, so there were no casualties; as for Galarick, Li Yue didn’t have time to help, but Yingying made up for it in time, pulling the Skeleton Knight out of the fly sea before he was completely devoured.

“Damn skeleton… Hehehehe… Sorry, my hand slipped.” O’Kee-Bokee grinned, but his cloth bag hand was clenched tightly, seeming very dissatisfied that Galarick could survive from his hands.

【His demon cocoon… My Jackalweird mount… I’ll ride this cloth bag demon sooner or later… I’ll ride flies sooner or later…】

Galarick’s fighting spirit erupted, but he suffered from his bones and mount being shattered all over the ground, unable to launch any counterattack.

Li Yue also had higher expectations for this Skeleton Knight—wanting to ride the King of the Colosseum?

This fighting will is so firm, he has a lot of potential.

Li Yue thought for a moment, and didn’t respond to O’Kee-Bokee’s provocation—venting represents incompetence.

Moreover, petrification ray, bone sword, card… no matter which method he used to counterattack, it would aggravate the sense of “Scoleric’s” existence, and it wasn’t the reaction Scoleric should have, so Li Yue decided to ignore it.

Since there were no casualties, it was more important to go home and count the spoils.

Because after tomorrow night, the Repository of Knowledge may not be as peaceful as it has been these days.

Seeing that Boody-Bogg didn’t respond, O’Kee-Bokee barely regained a bit of familiar feeling, but at the same time, his doubts deepened—back then, he also cowered in the Repository of Knowledge, cowering into the Brain Spirit Master, there was no problem, but why did he suddenly feel so gloomy now, unable to see through him?

Could there be any accidents tomorrow night?

O’Kee-Bokee couldn’t imagine… what kind of surprise Li Yue and Boody-Bogg had prepared for the Slaughter Cup final.

But in fact, Li Yue hadn’t figured it out yet, especially after Boody-Bogg’s “mutation”—perhaps… Boody-Bogg could find a way out by himself, maybe?

But these were not what Li Yue cared about most now—how could the Staff of Deception, the Flying Dagger, and the Skin of the Freak… three Demon Relics be used to make the Repository of Knowledge as solid as a fortress?

Walking out of the Gate of Souls without any more accidents, Li Yue swaggered through the city with a group of demons, walked through the Moonlight Path, walked through the Bewildering Corridor, and returned to the tightly sealed Repository of Knowledge.

Driving Redcoat back to the Gate of Chaos, Li Yue couldn’t wait to inspect the spoils—the Red Robe Bishop could be analyzed later, the profits from selling the Demon Merchant could be settled later, but the Demon Relics couldn’t wait for a moment.

Spreading out the bone shell that wrapped the spoils, Li Yue’s mind touched it, and in an instant, a new blueprint of the Repository of Knowledge unfolded in his mind.
