Demon Lord Management Sim Game

Velvet's tears had dried. She brought the body wrapped in white cloth into a room in the base.

No one knows about this incident except a few of Vorn's underlings.

Vorn's women, along with Ritor, Szur, and Karl, were waiting there. There was complete silence, and they all looked tense.

Velvet put the body into a bed, then uncovered the cloth.

Everyone gasped hard. It really was Vorn. His face was completely pale, showing no life at all.

"Oh, my lord." Phisovia knelt down and rubbed her master's face. Her tears flowed freely, and her voice was hoarse. "Please, wake up, my lord. I am right here. We still have much to do. You also haven't reached your biggest dream... Wake up, my love..."

Lexi also knelt down and cried, holding the demon lord's hand tightly.

Meanwhile, Xenora staggered backward until her back was against the wall, then fell to her knees. Like the others, she also cried.

Even Szur, Karl, and Ritor were also shedding tears.

With her head down, Emily approached Vorn. "Just like this? It was you who asked me to follow you, Vorn. It was you who gave me a new purpose. Your dream has become my dream. And now you just left? This is so unfair."

"Hey!" Phisovia looked up, glaring at the supreme undead. "What did you say…."

The red-haired succubus choked upon discovering that Emily's tears were also flowing uncontrollably, even more so than the others.

Velvet approached Ayre, who looked expressionless, though tears also dripped from her eyes.

"What you said is true, right?" The former prophet hissed near the shapeshifter general's face. "That you can revive him? Please, don't tell me you're lying."

Instantly, all eyes in the room were on the two women.

"That's not quite right." Ayre closed her eyes. "When you contacted me, I couldn't explain properly because of the emotional outburst."

Velvet gulped. Her body started shaking. "So, you can't do it?"

Ayre didn't answer right away and approached Vorn instead. While stroking the demon lord's forehead, she said. "More precisely, it is possible that we can pull the real Lord Vorn's body into this world."

Silence again. They were all still trying to process Ayre's words just now.

"Are you saying this body is just an avatar or a vessel for interacting with this world?" Lexi made a conclusion. "That's too... I don't know the words... Doesn't make sense?"

"That's basically it." Ayre continued. "It would be too long to explain what our lord does. Anyway, he and I have already planned something in this regard. I have already created the method for the trip to that other realm, the world where our lord Vorn came."

"And you need elements from high beings, right?" Karl joined in. "Just like when you time travel? Do we have those things?"

"Fergus's skull." Lexi hissed. "That's why Lord Vorn insists on keeping it!"

"And he asked me to take the dragon power in him. Now that this power is perfect, it can be used for sacrifice." Velvet looked at her palm.

Phisovia rose to her feet. "So, with those two things, we can travel back and forth to fetch Lord Vorn!?"

"Unfortunately, it's not that easy." Ayre took a deep breath. "We have to use four important things from high beings. Two to leave, two to return."

"Do you have any knowledge of the location of those high beings?" Xenora, still sitting on the floor, commented.

"Yes, the first one is in the south, in the kingdom of Grionni. Apparently, they caught something and made it captive." Ayre continued.

A bitter chuckle left Emily's mouth. "Let me guess, they're going to use it as a tool of war, right? Where's the other one then?"

"In the ocean."

For the umpteenth time, the atmosphere became silent.

Ah, that's why lord Vorn wants to make a water regiment. Karl rubbed his chin. "Unfortunately, he hasn't built an adequate army to undertake the hunt. Even if we can get into the ocean, we must think of a good plan. That place is not our forte, after all."

"I know Lord that we are developing vehicles that can survive underwater, right?" Emily added. "We can use that."

"And we are also developing a device that can modify the undead to be able to swim, even though it's only a blueprint." Ayre looked at the supreme undead. "So, this is your job, Emily. I hope…."

"Bring it on." Emily's face began to fill with determination. "I'll do anything, even jump to the bottom of hell. I'll make sure Lord Vorn returns."

"Okay, we already have a solution for those things." Karl walked up to Ayre. "Then, how are we going to take care of this empire? If you continue to be on the throne, people will definitely get suspicious, Ayre. There will be unrest."

"We've prepared a shapeshifter that can replace lord Vorn down to the smallest detail." Ayre continued her explanation. "And as long as he is 'Lord Vorn,' he will continue to wear armor and only occasionally remove his helmet. Lord Vorn in that other world has a different form from his avatar here."

"Ah, so people won't get too suspicious when they see him wearing armor all the time to hide his appearance." Karl nodded. "It's true that our lord is extraordinary to think of such a small thing. I'm just a little sad he didn't tell me all these things to me as his adviser."

"Lord Vorn wants to keep this secret to minimize it from leaking to other parties. It's not like he doesn't trust you, Karl." Ayre looked at the others in turn. "We will make our move immediately. From this moment on, I, acting as Lord Vorn's temporary replacement, will lead the operation to retrieve our lord. We will ensure this is successful and not let this world fall to Hiana."

"Well, I'm not mad or anything. It's just..." The advisor cleared his throat. "Ah, we'd better think about the ritual instead of discussing this. You need a lot more than those elements for high beings, right?"
