While the server brother and Merfolk warriors were scavenging for trash to eat, Yousi and Mi Xi in the Demon King Territory were already close to stuffing themselves to death.

"Wuuu... Big plate chicken... It's so delicious!"

"This this! Roast pig trotters! Not bad either!"

"Let me taste!"

"Oh oh oh! What meat is this, so round and juicy, biting into it is unbelievably tasty!!!"

"Demon City! This must be the Demon City of Hell!"

Watching Yousi and Mi Xi bury their heads in eating, Luo Yan couldn't help but reminisce about the good old days at the Demon King Academy.

The Little Demons there were the same, always the most enthusiastic when it came to eating.

However, compared to those who carried plates like bomber planes buzzing through the cafeteria, these two buffoons had comparatively more elegant eating manners.

At least they didn't spill soup into others' bowls.

In the end, it was still Sarah who was the most well-behaved.

Noticing that Lord Demon King kept looking at her, Sarah glanced at the half-eaten pig trotter in her hand, thinking that Lord Demon King wanted the piece she was holding. After hesitating for a long time, she finally handed it over with a heavy heart.

Luo Yan smiled and shook his head, savoring a sip of red wine.

"Appreciation doesn't necessarily mean possession, right? You eat it."

Sarah tilted her head.

"...?"

"Mi Xi... I can't take it anymore... I think I saw the Demon God!"

"Wuuu... Me too... can't stuff any more in..."

The two Little Demons ultimately lost to the limit of their bodily functions and succumbed just a second before their bodies turned into balloons.

Watching the two Little Demons make themselves look stupid by blowing up like balloons, Alakdo laughed heartily while devouring chicken.

"Hahaha, what a disgrace! Cough——"

It seemed he had choked on a chicken bone, as Alakdo began to cough violently.

To avoid letting Lord Demon King see his embarrassing state, he shamefully stuffed his head under the table, yet he still received a scolding.

"Alakdo, don't laugh while eating."

"Yes... Cough cough—! Yes! Lord Demon King!"

Luo Yan continued to look at the two gluttonous Little Demons with a magnanimous smile and said,

"Eat slowly, nobody is competing with you."

There is still a discernible difference between the treatment of vassals and foreign guests.

After all, he still needed the latter to go back home and sing praises of the Great Graveyard.

As expected, the eyes of the two little balloons filled with tears of gratitude, and they spoke sobbingly,

"Lord Demon King... You're truly... cunning and treacherous! Sly and dashing! Mi Mi Mi Xi's admiration for you is like the ceaseless lava flowing through Hell!"

"Yes yes! You're really too kind... Wuuu... not like those Lizardmen, Yousi was almost put on the table to entertain guests."

Luo Yan's smile remained unchanged.

Because he knew this was the highest form of praise in Hell; complimenting handsomeness or generosity would seem distant.

"Those lightweights who don't understand manners are not worth mentioning... But entertain guests? What guests?"

"Like, the companions of those four-legged snakes!"

Fearing something, Yousi let out a frightened burp and continued with a blush,

"It's said they came from outside the labyrinth, with terrifying scales and fins on their bodies... Didn't you see them?"

Scales and fins?

Could they be Merfolk?

Luo Yan's face showed a trace of surprise.

He indeed hadn't seen them and did not understand how Lizardmen and Merfolk ended up mixing together... The latter weren't species from the labyrinth at all, right?

However, he had heard some rumors that in the inner lands of the human world, some Merfolk worshipped the Dragon God and even considered themselves descendants of the dragons.

Before Luo Yan could open his mouth, Mi Xi already laughed and preempted his response,

"Never seen them, oh! Mi Xi saw nothing while flying in the sky! But that's normal, our Lord Demon King is the mighty one who defeated the dragon! It's only natural those Merfolk realized their ancestors stood no chance against Lord Demon King and tailed it out of fear!"

"I see..."

Yousi had an epiphany, looking at Lord Demon King with worship in his eyes, as if stars twinkled in them.

"As expected of Lord Demon King! Even dragons fell to your might, surely those pesky fish didn't dare to show up and just quietly slipped away."

"Hahaha! Of course!"

Alakdo seemed to recover, emerging from under the table with a boisterous laugh,

"Merely a dragon has been defeated by my master, and a bunch of Merfolk showing up would just be an extra meal for my master and myself!"

Luo Yan laughed without saying a word.

Of course, he couldn't admit that he actually hadn't defeated a dragon; at most, he had just given salvation to a sealed Undead.

However, it was unexpected that the Merfolk had interfered in matters of the labyrinth...

Was it the power from the Southwest Swamp?

The Lizardmen there seemed to be followers of the Dragon God too.

In the current absence of order in the labyrinth, not only had a spontaneous new order emerged inside, but external powers were also waiting to intervene.

Luo Yan faintly sensed a whiff of conspiracy in the air.

Regardless, it was better to stay on guard...

...

The banquet was drawing to a close.

Although there was still a lot of food left on the table, with Alakdo, the big eater around, there was no need to worry about waste.

The only thing Luo Yan felt sorry about was that his little gamers, who had also made contributions, didn't get a chance to taste the heavenly food.

What a pity!

When it was time to disperse, Mi Xi finally noticed that the aura around Alakdo seemed different from before.

After frowning and pondering for a while, she suddenly realized something and looked at him in surprise,

"Did you evolve?"
