Chapter 1510 - The Thriving Aerym (2/2)
Lily nodded in agreement. “I am all for it. On such a magical planet, who knows maybe a few hundred years later a brave elven guy may cause an international dispute. By then, Y’lisabet will have to deal with the mess you have left behind.”
Y’lisabet was dumbfounded.
Y’zaks scratched his head. “You are too imaginative. Things in the real world will not happen that way. What is more, don’t you think the Aerym-Demon Empire combo makes perfect sense against this magical background?”
Lily looked at Y’zaks and was stunned. “Big Guy, when did you become so naughty?”
Y’zaks smiled. “I don’t think it is bad. Mr. Landlord, I have not been back to Helcrown for quite a while. I am thinking to stay in Helcrown for a couple of days. After all, I will not be of help when you guys fiddle with the Crimson Moon.”
“No problem, no problem.” Hao Ren waved his hand. “Both of you should go back. It is irresponsible of you to leave only your sugar daughter and a dying butler to run the kingdom.”
Hao Ren was talking about the succubus Lanina and the court advisor Zadamor. After Y’zaks left Helcrown for a long vacation on Earth with his daughter, the two loyal subordinates had been running the show on his behalf all this while.
Y’zaks was a little embarrassed hearing what Hao Ren said. “We are not that irresponsible. Y’lisabet and I have been in contact with Helcrown all this while and constantly monitoring things remotely. There has not been a problem so far.”
Hao Ren’s mouth twitched. He felt especially sorry for the loyal regents. The emperor had been immersing himself in tea and newspaper in the sanatorium. The young Empress was addicted to used home appliances and would not take care of the affair of the kingdom before attaining the age of six hundred years old. Had this happened in the ordinary world, there would have been revolts.
But Hao Ren figured that he should not be worried about them. Y’zaks was the most genius demon king in history, and his daughter used to run the entire kingdom all my herself during his half a year of absence. They surely knew what they were doing. So, Hao Ren turned to Hilda and said, “I guess you already know that I am going to conduct a test on this planet.”
“Of course, we have already made the arrangement for you,” Hilda said. “All the patrol vessels in space will be grounded for the next two days, and we have notified the public; there will be no panic. There will be many people curious to watch the spectacular vision in the sky.”
Hao Ren’s mouth twitched. “The appearance of Crimson Moon has always been a sign of calamity on Earth. While the demon hunters and otherworldlings avoid it like the plague, you guys are treating it as something fun to watch.”
“Have you not made sure that it is a safe experiment?” Hilda smiled and looked at Hao Ren. “Aerymians trust their Sun King unconditionally. When you say it is safe, then it is safe.”
Hao Ren was moved. He again sought confirmation with Vivian to ensure the summoning of Crimson Moon was safe.
He needed to ensure the experiment was absolutely safe. The planet Aerym might be sparsely populated, but it was the Crimson Moon that they were talking about. It was not a joke if things got out of hand.
The summoning ceremony was scheduled to take place at the top of the Magic Tower in the Royal District of Minas Elenion the following evening.
