Lilim Heritage Online Chapter 144: Uncouth Maou Mia

Chapter 144 – Uncouth Maou Mia

When Mia was still fiddling with his status and game menu, Shurka returned. She hugged him from behind and sobbed.

"I thought you had abandoned me."

Indifferent, Mia harrumphed, "Idiot. One hour in the real world is one day over here. It took me a couple of hours longer than I expected. That's all."

"Where is your grandmother? Didn't she come back with you?"

"Nah, only me."

Mia patted Shurka's head and continued arranging his items in his inventory.

"Hey, stop working and look at me."

"Not now, Shurka. I'm busy. I need to sort things and prepare for a long grinding session."

"Grinding? Are you going out to farm diamonds again?"

"Yeah. I need more diamonds."

"Can't you just buy it using your cash?"

"A million MWD for one diamond, Shurka. They're expensive."

"…"

Shurka felt bad for relying on Mia. She also wanted to help.

"Is there anything I can do to help? I meant, how can I obtain some diamonds?"

"You can buy them from the markets, but it's too expensive right now. BTW, do you have enough gels on you?"

"I have plenty! Do you need some?"

"How many do you have?"

"Uh, 15 yellow gels and 200 green gels. Are you hungry? Do you want some?"

"…"

Shurka had fewer gels in her possession than Mia had expected. It seemed that her mechanic job had less salary than the guys in the expedition forces.

Mia gave Shurka a thousand of his red gels, "Eat these. If you're lucky, you'll learn a skill or two. Share some of it with Mii. Don't use them to buy diamonds."

"R-Red gels!? Aren't these expensive!?"

"Yeah. But just take it. I have more in my inventory. Eat some of it to increase your max VIT and STM. It helps."

"O-Okay."

.

After sorting everything out with Shurka, Mia visited Sebastian's office, checking if there was something new. However, Sebastian was not there.

His secretary told Mia that today, a group of humans and dragonewts from Mafdet City visited them. Furthermore, they were not just ordinary humans.

They were players.

They came here to deliver a proposition, negotiating for a truce for Mafdet City and Shelter 88. At the moment, everyone was in a meeting.

Realizing that players had arrived, Mia wanted to see them. When Mia arrived at the meeting room, Sebastian, Crystal, and the visitors were there.

The leader of this negotiator was one of the top combat class rankers, DaVinci. He was also one of Dove's former teammates who suggested to violate Misha during their early days, but he was killed by Dove.

Two of his entourage were players while the other ten was his bodyguards. Oddly enough, all of his bodyguards were dragonewts.

When DaVinci saw Mia, he laughed, "Mia Uriel, is that you?"

Mia frowned. He did not like it when someone called him by his real name in-game, "Who are you?"

"I'm your classmate, Collin. Heck, I sat behind you in class! Where have you been? I heard you transfer school, right?"

"Yeah, why are you here, then?"

"Why so serious? Hey, are you a big-shot here? These people don't seem to stop you from entering the meeting. I see that you're a mutant now. What's your level?"

"I'm the castellan here. These people are my subordinates. Get to the point, what you are doing here? I'm a busy person."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Chill, mate. I've come in peace. My boss told me to form an alliance with you people."

"Who is your boss? If I remember correctly, Carlos is already dead. Who is your leader now?"

"Dude, are you an interrogator and I'm a prisoner? This is not the right tone to say in a negotiation, man."

Mia smiled and created ten lightning balls around himself.

"You have ten seconds to confess everything before I turn every single of you into charcoal."

The dragonewt bodyguards stood up and prepared to fight, while the two other players still looked at Mia with a shocked expression.

Sebastian and Crystal did not say anything. Crystal took out her weapon, and Sebastian transformed into a black knight, getting ready for a fight.

Both mutants did not like these visitors from the very beginning, so they did not disapprove of Mia's rash action. Instead, they liked how Mia had threatened them.

However, DaVinci was calmer than everyone had expected. He still sat on his seat and raised both hands above his head.

"I'm being honest here, Mr. Uriel. We're here to negotiate for the truce. My leader's name is Prayut T. Cha, the new commander of Mafdet City. What would you like to know about us to make you believe in me?" Davinci changed his tone into a formal one.

"Prayut, you say?"

Sebastian and Crystal's face grimaced when they heard the name. He was the person who would destroy their shelter in the future, according to Mia's testimony.

Mia glanced at the ten dragonewts who had prepared to launch their attacks at him.

"Are they his goons, then?"

DaVinci's eyes sharpened, "Mr. Uriel, I believe you should be serious in this situation. I'm going to stop playing around and get to the business now. We've brought 500 red gels as a friendship token for this meeting. We really wish that we could talk things over rather than fighting."

"I'm sorry. You've joined the wrong side. For the sake of former friendship, I'm giving you a chance to log out or get out of my sight within 60 seconds. If you insist on your crap talk, I'll kill everyone."

"You're being immature, Mr. Uriel. Waging war against a historical figure is insane. You know that you can't beat that NPC with your force alone. The historians already found out that Prayut is a powerful overmind. You can't beat him with your knowledge and your psychic power. Even the military and our trainers are siding with him."

DaVinci and two players behind him each took an item from their VIP inventory. They were the random teleporter that Shurka also had.

Unlike Mia, DaVinci was the eldest son of a wealthy merchant, a noble, who also owned a fleet of battleships. He did not hesitate to buy diamonds from MWG, becoming VIP10 from his accumulate top-up cash. Thus, he had every item that Shurka received for free from Fluke Luckyaf.

Mia's 3D sense detected strange buttons in DaVinci's hand. He unleashed the chain lightning at the bodyguard dragonewts on the spot.

Branches of lightning fried eight out of ten dragonewts.

Two remaining dragonewts had a similar thunder base psychic powers. They resisted the lightning.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Three players pressed the emergency teleportation button and disappeared.

Sebastian jumped at the remaining dragonewts and pierced them with his lances without hesitation.

The negotiation ended in a flash as the mutants slaughtered the ambassadors.

*Mew* (How barbaric.)

*Grrr* (Overminds can't be trusted.)

*Aha Meow* (Return to sender.)

Crystal walked to Mia's side, "This is a bit too rash, I think."

Mia and Sebastian shook their heads, "No. It's better not to deal with any overmind at all, especially Prayut."

Usually, killing an ambassador would have been a huge uproar during the modern-day. However, Mia and Sebastian did not care about the peaceful world's logic and chose to be primitive.

Against the nemesis of mutants, there was no need for a façade.

"We could have drawn Prayut out and assassinate him, though."

Mia sighed, "True. But we don't have the luxurious time to play a mind game," Mia walked out of the meeting room, "I'm going to attack Mafdet City again."

Sebastian flinched, "We don't have enough troops to occupy the city. Everyone is busy farming for diamonds."

"No need. My Prometheus is enough for a quick raid. Also, I'm not occupying that city. I'm raiding it."

In Mia's mind space, all girls watched Mia with worries.

Different from Banana Mia, Maou was aggressive and violent. He did not seem to care about the local citizens' life in the city at all.

'As usual, how uncouth. He's still barbaric as before. Nothing has changed even after all the ordeal he had been through.'

Lana shook her head. She glanced at Misha Statue with a frown. Then, she met eyes with Maple, who seemed to keep watching her from a distance.

'That fairy in disguise should have noticed me or planned something.'

Maple sneered at Lana. She shook her head and put a finger before her mouth, gesturing Lana to keep quiet.

'Not now, Lana. Don't reveal my secret yet. You're also Mia's enemy, aren't you?'

'…'

DaVinci reappeared on the surface of the wasteland, not far away from the construction site of shelter 88.

His two friends were teleported elsewhere. But since their name was still flashing in white color, it meant that they were still alive.

DaVinci massaged his temple and sighed.

"Seriously, Mia. You're so immature that it hurts to talk to you."

He walked away from the base, heading back to Mafdet City on foot. As the wasteland purge was ongoing, all surrounding areas were monster-free, so it was safe for him to walk back home.

Fantasizing about the future of this world, DaVinci grinned, 'Once I get rid of all mutants, I'll obtain more resources from here. Father said I can import items, gold, and monster corpses to sell to MWG for a good price. Maybe I can make it big by smuggling gold and other stuff from this game to reality.'

DaVinci laughed.
