Chapter 916 - Dragon Slaying (1/2)
Jiang Fei opened the guild interface and realized that only a third of guild members were online. It seemed that many were still in their celebratory mode after the victory announcement in the news. Most might want to rest their minds instead of playing the game.
Not only were most members absent, even the high officers were missing as well. Rosette Rose, Seven Star Warrior, and other prominent figures in the guild were offline. Fortunately, Lady Casanova and Billy Boy were in that day.
After exchanging greetings with the rest of the guild members, Jiang Fei headed to Demon Dragon Fortress and met up with the NPC girls. After being absent for so long, it was crucial for him to mingle with them to cultivate their relationship.
For the entire morning, Jiang Fei spent his time hanging out with the girls and when afternoon came, Jiang Fei got bored. He entered the game specifically because of 0541's pestering. Now that he was in the game, he had no idea what he should do.
At that moment, a Naga Priestess came to Jiang Fei and said, ”My master, a demon wishes to have an audience with you.”
”A demon? Let him in,” said Jiang Fei. He was stunned for a moment. Who would want to talk to him? Or rather, which NPC would want to talk to him?
”Yes, my master.” The Naga Priestess bowed and left. Not a minute later, she brought in a young demon.
The demon was from a lower-class demon race, a Satyr demon. He was not all that powerful as he was only a level 85 High Lord tier NPC.
Dicarvalor (Satyr, High Lord)
Level 85
Note: The 58th son of the Nephilim King
Jiang Fei quickly dismissed any importance of this demon even though he was the son of the Nephilim King Augustus. Most importantly, the Nephilim King had over a hundred offsprings and only those that had pure noble blood were prioritized. Everyone else was treated merely as common tools. Not even Akatziris, an Overlord tier NPC, was treated like his own daughter. The Nephilim King could simply just give her away as if she was nothing but a simple gift.
”It's a pleasure to meet you, sir Verdure Glider,” said Dicarvalor as he knelt on his knee. He then turned to Akatziris and greeted her as well.
”It's been a while, O third sister!”
”What do you need?” said Jiang Fei. Jiang Fei was a little disappointed at the young demon as most of the NPCs that he was in good terms were Celestials and even Overlords. Any NPCs with a lower tier was ignored.
”The Nephilim King wishes to have your audience,” said Dicarvalor. The way he addressed his own father was as if he was the black sheep of the family, as if he did not have the qualifications to call him his father. He could only address him the same way as other normal demons could.
”Hmm, what does he want with me?” said Jiang Fei to himself. However, not a second later, he understood why. The last time he had seen and talked to him was when he organized a large party of players to raid the dragon lair. After that, the quest progress must have been stalled greatly due to his absence.
Right now, the dragon's lair was still unharmed and the army of players had shrunk too much. Even though they were offline temporarily, NPC had thought that they were missing in action. From their point of view, adventurers were gone!
