Volume 8, Chapter 13 – Diverting the Disaster Eastward

Succubus.

Although Tianyin knew that in the eyes of demons she herself appeared as a demon, being labeled a succubus was still somewhat hard to accept.

Of course, now was not the time for Tianyin to complain. After all, an unknown demon had come over to warn her, and in order not to arouse suspicion, Tianyin decided to obediently follow what the demon in front of her said.

“I’ll leave right away…”

After saying this in a slightly “reserved” manner, Tianyin left this demon camp.

And as Tianyin departed, the demon who had just warned her did not think much of it either. After watching Tianyin leave, it also went on its own way.

However…

What that demon saw was not the truth. In reality, Tianyin had not actually left.

Less than a few minutes after the demon who warned Tianyin not to approach departed, the Tianyin who had just left returned again and came back to this area.

“Heh, heh, if you don’t let me get close, then I insist on getting close. The more forbidden a place is, the more I want to enter it!”

Saying this rather smugly, a scheming smile appeared at the corner of Tianyin’s mouth.

『Samael, this place is really far too suspicious! So I’ve decided to thoroughly investigate it. Maybe there will be an opportunity here for our next plan.』

「Mm, I think so too. There might really be a chance here.」

Regarding Tianyin’s judgment, Samael gave very firm affirmation this time.

「But Xiaoyin, since this place is likely important, there should be many demons guarding it, right? Then to prevent any accidents, shouldn’t we sneak in? After all, your image among demons is that of a succubus, and you originally aren’t allowed to get close to this place…」

『Mm…』

Hearing Samael’s words, Tianyin pondered slightly.

『What you say makes a lot of sense, Samael… Sneaking in is a bit troublesome, but it really is necessary.』

Saying this also meant that Tianyin agreed with Samael’s suggestion. And since the method of sneaking in was confirmed, Tianyin used Envy’s ability of Skill Copying and activated the Assassin’s Sneak skill.

Of course, the Assassin’s Sneak skill could not guarantee one hundred percent invisibility. So to be on the safe side, while activating the Assassin’s Sneak skill, Tianyin also activated stealth related skills from different jobs.

“Sneak.”

“Breath Concealment.”

“Shadow Walk.”

“Existence Weakening.”

“Gale Step…”

In short, all sorts of skills that were similar to stealth were used all at once.

Although using so many skills sounded troublesome, from the actual results, the effect of Tianyin’s chain of stealth skills was extremely powerful.

As Tianyin began to continuously move deeper into this camp, every demon she encountered subconsciously “ignored” the “little succubus” Tianyin who was openly walking along the road.

“So thrilling… so nerve wracking…”

Walking openly under the noses of towering demons, Tianyin would be lying if she said she was not nervous.

Indeed, the demons here posed no threat to Tianyin at all, but this kind of sneaky action made Tianyin experience the charm of Assassin players using Sneak.

After all, the feeling of standing right under the enemy’s nose while they could not see you no matter what was simply too exhilarating.

「Pfft, Xiaoyin, don’t forget why we came here. This isn’t the time to train Assassin skills. Our top priority right now is to find a way to dismantle the demons from the inside.」

『Mm-mhm… I know, Samael!』

Hearing Samael frequently remind her like this, Tianyin felt a little unhappy in her heart. But when she thought of the important matters she truly needed to do, those unhappy thoughts were quickly suppressed.

Soon, as the infiltration went deeper, Tianyin gradually discovered that the “tents” the demons had “built” in this camp were becoming larger and larger.

Compared to the tents Tianyin commonly saw before, the tents she could see now were four to five times larger in both area and scale.

Not only that, the patrolling demons were much taller than the outer demons, and their weapons and equipment were also far more refined.

Of course, what Tianyin paid the most attention to was the powerful aura faintly emanating from those tents.

“Legendary… this aura is definitely Legendary… and from what I’m seeing now, roughly each tent has one Legendary-tier Demon Lord living inside…”

The hierarchy of Inferno was also quite strict. At the very least, all Legendary-tier demons possessed the title of Demon Lord.

So Tianyin calling these Legendary existences Demon Lords was not wrong at all.

「One Demon Lord living in each tent? Xiaoyin… we might have arrived at the camp area that belongs to the demon generals…」

From Tianyin’s words, Samael quickly made a reliable judgment.

And Tianyin also strongly agreed with Samael’s conclusion.

『Yes, with basically all of them being Legendary-tier Demon Lords, it makes sense that this area can’t be entered lightly. After all, all the Demon Lords are gathered here…』

Tianyin suddenly understood why a demon had previously stopped her from approaching this area.

So it turned out this place was full of Demon Lords, and a “small succubus” like Tianyin simply did not have the qualifications to pay respects to these “lofty” Demon Lords.

『Speaking of which, Samael. If we use methods like framing and shifting the blame to make these Demon Lords kill each other, and once the Demon Lords start fighting internally, then our plan will basically be halfway successful.』

「What you say makes a lot of sense, Xiaoyin. After all, Demon Lords are the leaders of this demon army. But how exactly are we going to frame and shift the blame next?」

Compared to schemes, what Samael excelled at was straightforward combat on the battlefield or arranging troops. As for the “framing and shifting the blame” Tianyin mentioned, making Demon Lords fight internally, Samael was still somewhat confused and did not know how to do it.

And after Samael asked, Tianyin raised her chin with a smug expression.

『Of course we create a crime scene and then divert the disaster eastward!』

This kind of childish scheme was something Tianyin could now flexibly use under Xingyu Muxi’s guidance.

『This is the simplest method, Samael. As long as conflicts erupt between the Demon Lords, and I give it a little push, internal strife will be inevitable, right?』

Having said this, Tianyin had already imagined the scene of the demons fighting among themselves, as well as the Abyssal Lord being furious and humiliated.

「Alright… then let’s just do as you say, Xiaoyin.」

Seeing Tianyin so confident, Samael also strongly agreed.

After all, as the leader of Dawn, inspiring confidence was also a very necessary part.
