The Demon's Menu-Chapter 1743: The Fool’s Path of Folly
Captulo 1743: Chapter 137: The Fool’s Path of Folly
What was that?!
Everyone was stunned.
Especially William, whose stern and indifferent face was filled with astonishment.
One must know that the ‘key’ was right in front of him just now, even under his control.
What happened?
Ponya and Casavi looked at William.
Likewise, ‘Aemon’, Lion, Tet, El, and Lin were a bit confused.
Could it be a trap?
‘Aemon’ thought deep down.
But at this moment, a familiar voice reached his ears—
‘Want to talk?’
Jason!
It’s Jason!
‘Aemon’ gave a barely noticeable nod.
‘Continue to cooperate?’
Jason’s voice sounded again in his ear.
‘Aemon’ nodded once more.
He chose to trust Jason.
Or rather, whether he believed in Jason or not, the situation was the same before him, but if he chose to trust Jason, the situation might get a little better.
Applause rang out crisply, and ‘Aemon’s lips curled into a smile.
"Brilliant!”
"The expressions on your three faces are truly brilliant!”
"You know, this is a scene I’ve long been looking forward to!”
‘Aemon’s applause had long since attracted the attention of William, Ponya, and Casavi.
The words at this moment made Ponya and Casavi’s eyelids twitch.
"Is this your doing?!”
Ponya questioned, with none of the previous mockery.
"Of course!”
"You wouldn’t think… I really don’t know what you guys are thinking?”
‘Aemon’s eyes bore a contempt that made the temples of William, Ponya, and Casavi throb. He said with his unique clear voice, “Did you think I didn’t know you have an agreement with ‘Paradise’?”
"I let ‘Paradise’ descend on ‘Nightless City’, ‘Paradise’ will help me resurrect Lion, Tet, El, and Lin, and won’t harm them in any way.”
"Of course, it won’t harm them!”
"Because the people from ‘Paradise’ have long reached an agreement with you to get rid of us, then inside and outside coordination—wherever there’s a traitor, they are always so vile and disgusting.”
"Bastards, wouldn’t you say?”
‘Aemon’ said, pointing at William, Ponya, and Casavi three.
The meaning couldn’t be clearer.
Instantly, anger appeared on their faces.
Even the always indifferent William was no exception.
"You’ve known all along?”
William asked coldly.
That voice was even icier than before.
"Of course.”
"I’ve always known.”
‘Aemon’ said very confidently.
Even if he only learned about it just now and quickly deduced it all.
But he acted very calm.
It was a kind of certainty of having everything under control.
This might be hard for others.
But for ‘Aemon’, this kind of disguise was as simple as the previous deduction, as easy as eating and drinking—after all, he had lived for decades in such disguise and calculation.
Every day was like walking on thin ice.
Every moment was with utmost caution.
He had long gotten used to it.
Imprinting the disguise in his soul.
Etching the deduction in his bones.
So, anyone seeing such ‘Aemon’ would think ‘Aemon’ already knew everything.
Even Lion, Tet, El, and Lin were no exceptions.
The hearty captain even gave ‘Aemon’ a thumbs up.
The partners were happy.
William, Ponya, and Casavi, on the other hand, were extremely angry.
How many years has it been?
How many years since they last suffered such humiliation?
Humph!
Ponya snorted coldly, pointing the Magic Wand in his hand at ‘Aemon’.
But before the deputy speaker could truly make a move, Tet had already launched a cold air.
"Who allowed you to make a move against ‘Aemon’ so freely?”
Tet said word by word, a blade made entirely of ice appeared in his hand.
Ponya said nothing, turned the Magic Wand, and stabbed at Tet.
Clang clang clang!
Sparks flew amid overlapping shadows.
The two clashed fiercely.
Casavi put his hands in his pockets, seemingly slow but was actually swiftly charging towards Tet—he planned to use his speed for a quick victory.
"Hey, your opponent is me!”
The tall and burly Lion flashed and blocked in front of Casavi.
"Lion?”
"Fighting you is not what I wanted.”
Casavi sighed softly.
With a sincere look.
But Lion roared angrily.
"Put away that fake face of yours!”
"I was deceived by that fake look of yours back then!”
"And now?”
"How could I fall for it again!”
Lion roared furiously and pounced toward Casavi.
Before his figure even reached, his previous roar materialized, forcing Casavi to retreat repeatedly.
Ponya and Tet were locked in a tough fight.
Casavi was suppressed by Lion.
Only William was left facing ‘Aemon’, El, and Lin alone.
"You think three people can gain the upper hand?”
William showed disdain.
"Three?”
"No!”
"It’s just me!”
‘Aemon’ shook his head seriously, and then directly said, “Go help Tet!”
El and Lin immediately rushed towards the battle group of Tet and Ponya.
The five of them were too familiar with each other.
The strongest, without a doubt, was Lion.
Before undertaking the so-called ‘decapitation mission’, he already had the strength of a deputy speaker.
Next was Tet.
Much stronger than the average Councilor, just a notch below a deputy speaker.
And El and Lin?
Back then, they were the elites among the ordinary Councilors, and their abilities and secret techniques were special, able to well compensate for Lion and Tet’s shortcomings.
That’s why the four of them teamed up.
