high aiming a decisive blow toward the
projection this strike channeled all of
gian's Might the sword energy surging
forth Unstoppable die in the next moment
the projection of the dark Demon King
vanished dissipating into a wisp of
smoke that drifted deeper into the
cavern a swarm of antso not waste your
time the voice of The Dark Knight Demon
King echoed throughout the cave as the
Wisp of smoke receded giangi rushed
after it but xya restrained her her
expression serious shaan that was merely
a projection and we barely managed to
contend with it is three furthermore he
clearly had no intention of engaging us
fully if we encounter his true form we
stand no chance chingin also furrowed
her brow and nodded let us devise a way
to break through the mermaid horde we
shall wait for father Emperor to arrive
Gian XI was awakened by seya and Chin's
words realizing her earlier
impulsiveness confronting the projection
of The Dark Knight Demon King had
already pushed them to their limits
facing his true form would surely lead
to dire consequences she inhaled deeply
calming her racing heart and turned to
xya and chingin resolutely stating you
are right we cannot take risks I was too
hasty the trio searched for Clues within
the underground Palace as G on G scanned
the palace's structure she noticed that
even though the Dark Knight Demon King
had Departed the horde of man-eating
mermaids remained clustered at the
Cave's entrance refusing to venture even
a single step inside she approached the
entrance to investigate having been too
hasty earlier she now observed that
peculiar plants flourished around the
Cave's mouth upon scanning she
discovered that these plants were called
fragrant welcoming grass whenever a man
eating mermaid approached the plants
released a unique scent causing the
mermaids to become agitated and Restless
Gian G speculated that this scent was a
deterrent mint to drive away the
mermaids after sharing her findings with
her companions they rolled up their
sleeves and began harvesting The
Fragrant welcoming grass once gathered
the scent intensified causing Gian G to
wrinkle her nose after chopping the
grass into pieces and wrapping it in a
piece of burlap she swam toward the
horde as The Fragrant welcoming grass
pouched near the Dragon King the
surrounding mermaids immediately
scattered fleeing in a frenzy as if
encountering a ghost with G on G and the
pouch of fragrant welcoming grass
leading the way everyone successfully
made their way into the cave The Dragon
King adjusted his sleeves regarding the
three with appreciation you are quite
clever this time thanks to you we would
have taken an eternity to deal with
those men eating mermaids otherwise Gian
promptly recounted the situation
gesturing toward the direction where the
Wisp of smoke had vanished The Dragon
King nodded solemnly after surveying the
underground Palace quickly pursue we
cannot let him escape this time leading
the way the Dragon King set off followed
closely by Gian and her companions with
dozens more trailing behind nearly
filling the Cave's passage The Dragon
King halted assigning a portion of the
group to guard the underground Palace
instructing them to report any
suspicious individuals or occurrences
immediately following the Dragon King
command everyone began to move in an
orderly fashion The Dragon King
accompanied by giangi chingin xya and
the remaining elite team swiftly pursued
the direction in which the projection of
The Dark Knight Demon King had vanished
though the cave was shrouded in darkness
The Dragon King and his companions
wielded luminous night pearls that
illuminated their path they ventured
deeper along the winding passages of the
Cave the sound of water droplets echoing
against the stone floor and the air was
thick with a damp chill atmosphere
