Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Ethan’s Demand, the Shock of the King of the Red Dwarves

In the golden hall, a strange silence filled the air. Only Aiden’s "Idiot" continued to echo.

Ethan’s eyes went wide in disbelief as he stared at Aiden.

"You actually dare to insult me?"

"You despicable man, shameless thief! You’re the one who stole my dragon egg!"

"Humans are the lowest, most worthless creatures, and yet you dare to insult me?"

As a Demon Duke, Ethan had never bowed to anyone except Demon Grand Dukes and Demon God-level powerhouses!

If this had happened somewhere else, if a human had dared to insult him, he would have done everything possible to make that human suffer so much that he would beg for life and be unable to die!

"Your Majesty, if you can hand this human and that Miko over to me, then I will ask Lord Demon God to give you Scarlet Skull Goblet in advance!" Ethan immediately turned to Malcolm and said without hesitation.

The moment those words were spoken, Fiona and Cheryl became nervous at once.

Malcolm looked at Aiden and Cheryl with disgust, then shifted his gaze to Syed.

"Since you did not die and have returned, then Karls will be left to you."

"However, you broke into the prison and released Karls without permission. That is already a violation of Red Dwarves law."

"Hand that human and Miko over to me, and I will let the matter end there."

As long as he could recover Scarlet Skull Goblet, Malcolm would be able to repair the scarlet crystal on it.

Then he could use that scarlet crystal to solve the Red Dwarves’ current problem.

Karls would no longer matter.

And when Ethan heard Malcolm say this, he immediately smiled proudly.

He stuck out his long scarlet tongue, licked his lips, and said with a smile,

"I’ll make you understand what real cruelty is!"

Aiden calmly raised one middle finger and said lightly,

"Looks like calling you an idiot was wrong."

"You’re worse than an idiot."

Ethan’s expression had just eased a little, but now it turned even uglier at once.

"Hahahaha, sorry, I really couldn’t hold it in." Fiona’s brother, Karls, burst out laughing.

He looked at the floor awkwardly for a moment, then raised his head and said to Malcolm,

"You really have gone mad. If you want to forge Banner of Doom, you must use a special forging method, and also Magma Core."

"You and I both know what it means to use Magma Core even once."

The reason the Red Dwarves lived in the dungeon was because deep below it lay a massive volcano.

The energy brought by the flames not only helped the Red Dwarves forge weapons, but also made their bodies stronger.

And Magma Core was something far more powerful than ordinary earthfire.

At the same time, Magma Core was also tied to the Red Dwarves’ greatest military strength, so it could not be used lightly.

Malcolm and the Red Dwarves minister standing closest to him looked at each other.

That minister took a deep breath and said, "It’s only some risk. We can bear it."

"Oh, come on, Boros. You and Malcolm are just gambling!" Karls curled his lip.

He looked at Ethan and said directly, "Why not capture this guy and trade him for Scarlet Skull Goblet? That way, you won’t be forced to use Magma Core, and you’ll still have a chance of success."

As soon as he said that, Malcolm and the minister named Boros both froze.

The two of them instinctively turned their eyes toward Ethan.

Ethan immediately panicked, and as fast as he could, he said,

"Don’t. I’m only a Demon Duke. Lord Demon God would never agree to that!"

"Besides, if you really do this, you will definitely anger Lord Demon God!"

Ethan was starting to get scared. He really was worried Malcolm might actually do it.

Other Demon might not know, but he knew very well that Lord Theodore had mysteriously disappeared for some time.

That was why the other Lord Demon God had sent him to carry out this mission.

After all, among all the Demon God of the Demon Clan, he was relatively close to Theodore and could be considered one of Theodore’s subordinates.

At the same time, it was also because Theodore was gone that the other Lord Demon God wanted to use the Red Dwarves to forge Banner of Doom, a weapon made specifically to slaughter humans.

Malcolm’s eyes flickered, but in the end, he gave up on the idea.

He had to admit that he really was tempted.

But the risk of that method was even greater, and just as Ethan had said, a Demon Duke was not worth that much.

At that moment, Aiden gave Ethan a calm look, then glanced at the Red Dwarves ministers present.

He said lightly, "I’m curious. Why do you believe that Scarlet Skull Goblet is really in Demon’s hands?"

As soon as he said that, Ethan let out a cold laugh and said directly,

"That’s a fact!"

"Lord Demon God gave me Crimson Blood. Only Scarlet Skull Goblet can produce this."

"You can stop struggling. It won’t be long before you fall into my hands!"

Aiden did not waste any words. He directly took out a glass container, and inside it was clearly Crimson Blood.

He still had some of it on him.

"I have Crimson Blood too. I can also say that Scarlet Skull Goblet is on me."

"How about this? You kill Ethan, and I’ll show you the real Scarlet Skull Goblet." Aiden smiled at Ethan as he said this.

Other than Fiona and Syed, all the Red Dwarves present instinctively looked toward the glass container in Aiden’s hand and swallowed.

Even Malcolm, the King of the Red Dwarves, was no different, though his swallow was so slight that no one would notice it unless they looked very closely.

"Fake! It must be fake! Cunning and deceitful humans love using dirty tricks like this to fool people!" Ethan shouted at once.

Malcolm seemed to remember something, and his eyes instantly turned cold.

He said flatly, "Human, stop using these little tricks."

"Scarlet Skull Goblet is with Demon..."

Before he could finish, Aiden took out even more Crimson Blood and even opened the containers himself.

At once, all the Red Dwarves present instinctively twitched their noses.

Even Syed looked toward the glass containers at that moment.

"Th-this smell? That’s right, it really is Crimson Blood! I drank it once forty years ago, and I still remember this smell!"

"It really is Crimson Blood? This human actually brought out more Crimson Blood than Demon did?"

"Where did he get so much Crimson Blood?"

"Could Scarlet Skull Goblet really be on him?" The Lord of Red Dwarves drooled as they began discussing it among themselves.

Malcolm’s face was filled with confusion and doubt.

"Was Ethan really lying to me? Is Scarlet Skull Goblet not in Demon’s hands at all?" Malcolm took a deep breath and thought to himself.

If Scarlet Skull Goblet was in that human’s hands, how was he supposed to get it?

Take it by force?

Malcolm instinctively glanced at Syed and felt that the old man probably would not stop him.

But if he did that, it would not fit his status.

Still, Scarlet Skull Goblet was far too important to the Red Dwarves.

If they could not repair the Crimson Crystal, then the war weapon deep inside The Flame God would slip out of the Red Dwarves’ control!

By then, not only would the Undercity be destroyed, but the earthfire the Red Dwarves had always depended on would also disappear!

"We must get Scarlet Skull Goblet!" A light flashed in Malcolm’s eyes.

He suddenly said to Aiden, "Human, where did you get so much Crimson Blood?"

"Do you know where Scarlet Skull Goblet is? Or did you get Scarlet Skull Goblet?"

Before Aiden could answer, Ethan shouted, "Impossible! That thing is in the hands of Lord Demon God!"

"This human is lying to you!"

"He will definitely say he knows where Scarlet Skull Goblet is, then make you panic so he can gain something from it!"

Ethan had no doubt at all. Before he came here, the other Demon God in the Demon Clan had indeed told him about Scarlet Skull Goblet.

How could Lord Demon God lie to him?

So it had to be Aiden who was lying!

That shameless bastard not only stole his dragon egg, but also killed a Mythic Rank Demon genius on the front line.

Ethan had wanted revenge for a long time!

"One is a Demon God, and the other is a sly human. Who should you trust? Do you even need to think about it?" Ethan went on.

He stared at Aiden and said with great certainty,

"You’re going to say you know where Scarlet Skull Goblet is, right?"

Aiden’s lips curved into a mocking smile, and he said softly again,

"If I really took out Scarlet Skull Goblet, then wouldn’t you be finished?"

"Deceiving the entire Red Dwarves Clan—if this gets found out, what do you think will happen to you?"

Ethan gave a scornful cold laugh and said, "Trying to scare me?"

At that moment, Aiden directly took Scarlet Skull Goblet out of his storage space.

"Take a look, and you’ll know who’s lying." Aiden said calmly.

Malcolm and Boros immediately widened their eyes and said in shock, their voices trembling:

"Scarlet Skull Goblet!"

As the King of the Red Dwarves, Malcolm instinctively took a step toward Aiden.

Boom! 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Golden flames appeared in an instant.

Aiden held Scarlet Skull Goblet in one hand and controlled Divine Golden Sunflame with the other, his expression very calm.

At the same time, he was also ready to stir up chaos and take advantage of it to use the supreme Miko blessing.

Of course, the chance of that happening was still pretty low.

"Damn it!"

"This is Divine Golden Sunflame?" Malcolm shouted in surprise, yanking hard on the beard he treasured so much.
