Emperor Han, Han Shu, and Yueyin also went to the main hall of the Imperial Palace to discuss the plan to stop the invasion of the Demon Race.
In the palace there are many soldiers who stand guard and the palace ladies who pass by. However, there was not a single Imperial Family there.
"Why don't I see my brothers? I wish I could meet them again." While walking, Han Shu smiled broadly at the thought of their reaction.
"What are you thinking, sir?" Yueyin who was walking beside him asked.
"Nothing" he answered briefly.
"Hmmm... Really true?" Yueyin did not seem to believe it.
Arriving at the main hall of the Imperial Palace, Emperor Han sat on his throne. Meanwhile, Han Shu and Yueyin were sitting at the seat of the Empire's higher-ups not far from Emperor Han.
"Han Shu, how do we defeat the Demon Race, especially the Demon King? Can you tell me the plan?" asked Emperor Han with a serious look.
"I haven't got it yet." Han Shu replied briefly.
"Wait on! Whaaat! Then why are we back here!?" Emperor Han was shocked by Han Shu's statement.
"Don't I tell you that I want to meet my brothers. Where are they now? Why don't I see it? Even the Palace looks deserted."
"A few months ago, your brothers had already entered the sect they wanted. Besides, they were not in the palace. They'll be back tonight."
"What do you really want to do?" ask Emperor Han.
"I just wanted to say hello to them. They must be surprised to see me. The four of them thought I was dead. They must have been so happy to have gotten rid of me back then."
"Han Shu, please don't talk about it anymore. Right now the state of the Han Empire is being threatened with danger with the arrival of the Demon Race."
"Alright, give me 4 days to think about it. In the meantime, look for as many troops as you can. Order the elders of the sects to increase their power within these 7 days."
"Sectes will definitely send their disciples to fight against the Demon Race. It could add to our victory." After saying that, Han Shu left the main hall of the Imperial Palace.
"Well, I gave you 4 days to think about it. I'll prepare a day to serve you."
Han Shu simply waved his hand in response to Emperor Han's words. And Yueyin always followed Han Shu beside her.
"Sir, what has happened to you in the past?" Yueyin asked as she was not strong enough to hold the question in her mind.
"It's just a small matter, the Imperial Family will definitely experience a power struggle. My four brothers joined forces to get rid of me who had no support whatsoever." Han Shu explained.
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir. Then where are we gonna live?"
"I don't know, I forgot my room space."
Suddenly, several palace ladies came over to them. They were the ladies-in-waiting that Emperor Han ordered to serve them.
"Greetings, Prince. Please follow us to your room." The ladies looked down and saluted.
"Lead the way, I completely forgot my room."
The maids led their way through the winding road. Five minutes later, they finally reached Han Shu's room room.
"When on foot, the palace is very spacious. I didn't expect my room to be far from the main hall of the Imperial Palace," Inner Han Shu.
"This is your room, Prince. Is there anything else we can help you with?" ask the ladies.
"Nothing, you guys get back to work."
The maids who had gone quite far started to utter Han Shu because her appearance was very different from before.
"Is he the First Prince?"
"Looks not. Wasn't the first Prince punished and sent to the border region a few months ago?"
"Then, is he the Emperor's illegitimate son?" A lady suddenly asked a surprising question.
"So talk! Do you want us all to be punished!"
"Sorry, sorry, I was just thinking. If he really was an illegitimate child, what would happen to him? But he's so handsome!"
"Don't conclude haphazardly. We don't know if he's a bastard or not. But you're right, he's very handsome. His Majesty the Emperor said he was the First Prince."
"Have any of you ever served the First Prince?"
They looked at each other to find him. A lady-in-waiting who looked very embarrassed and lacking confidence raised her hand.
"I've served him twice. But he's so different from what I remember." He said in a word.
"But why is His Majesty Emperor—"
"Have, have, don't discuss it again. Take your hoe and start stirring. No, I mean we should get back to work."
.........
In the small City where the Devil Race appeared...
The number of Demon troops began to increase and continue to grow until it reached the number of ten thousand troops with a sufficiently strong level of strength.
The situation around the city became bad, the plants and weeds along with the animals died. It appeared a blood-red blur that surrounded the city up to tens of meters above the ground.
The people who had previously gathered to barge into the city had left after seeing Han Shu's fierce fight earlier. Only the higher-ups of the Dark Market Organization still remained there. They even approached towards the Dimension Portal.
They considered that the Devil Race was a creature they had summoned and had to obey his words.
"Hahahaha, finally our decades-old plan succeeded! We managed to call this army. Welcome to all of you." The higher-ups of the Dark Market Oraganization laughed happily.
"Hey you! Are you their leader? It is we who have called you, you command your army to attack humans!" They were seen commanding the Flying Demon King.
"Oh, you've called us. Then what should we do?" asked the Demon King to come closer towards them.
"You follow our orders. Your army must attack the humans in this region and we will take control of this Han Empire, hahaha." Again they laughed happily.
However, their laughter instantly stopped after finding their necks separated from their bodies.
"What happened to me?"
Srats!
The Demon King flicked his hand towards the higher-ups of the Dark Market Organization and instantly, their necks were slashed. Blood spurted from their necks and flowed to the ground through their separate bodies.
"How dare men like you rule me! Only death will you get." said the Demon King arrogantly.
The Demon King then looked towards the Dimensional Portal to see another Demon Race coming up.
"Huh, this is boring. I still have to wait 7 days to start a war with humans."
"Hero, are you coming again? I'd love to tear you apart!" The Demon King's grudge was already unbearable anymore. He was eager to avenge it.
