Chương 267: Yuuki, who ran away, attempted to become the Pope?

"Rimuru, you really know how to surprise me—" Yang Cheng's gaze toward the blue jelly was filled with hostility.

Among the women present, quite a few have had some connection with him. Rimuru's actions are not a surprise at all, but a complete shock!

In contrast to Yang Cheng's unfriendly gaze, Frey's eyes were full of friendliness and gratitude as she looked at Rimuru.

She had also been to the Demon Kingdom Federation, where there were many new things to see, including food and architectural styles that were said to come from another world.

As a reincarnated person, it would be ideal if Yang Cheng could prepare for the wedding according to their customs.

Moreover, both she and Yang Cheng are Demon Kings, and she is the ruler of the Heavenly Wing Kingdom, while Yang Cheng is the vice leader of the Demon Kingdom Federation. They have both strength and status, so if they were to hold a wedding, it naturally couldn't be done hastily.

Rimuru is not only a close friend of Yu Cheng, but he has also governed the Demon Kingdom Federation so well that Frey is quite at ease having him organize her wedding with Yu Cheng.

"Rimuru, thank you so much. Please feel free to ask if you need any help."

I will also have Rukia and Claire go and help. During the wedding preparations, you will have complete control over everything in the Skywing Kingdom.

The others present were initially skeptical of Rimuru's words, but they were all stunned by Frey's attitude.

This is practically solid proof!

Everyone present had considered that Yang Cheng's fiancée was either Ultima or Luminas. After all, anyone who wasn't stupid could see that the atmosphere was clearly off after Yang Cheng and Luminas had fought.

They had even speculated that it might be Milim and Ramiris, but they never expected that Yang Cheng's fiancée would be the Sky Queen Frey!

Did these two people have any contact? They hadn't noticed at all before!

A marriage alliance between demon kings is clearly a big deal.

Moreover, everyone also discovered that the Demon Kingdom Federation, which they initially thought was insignificant, was now expanding its power at an alarming rate.

The two newly appointed awakened demon kings originally belonged to the Jura Great Forest faction, and now the Sky Queen Frey has become Yang Cheng's wife.

With just their faction alone, wouldn't they have three Demon Kings?

No, in fact, besides them, "Destruction Tyrant" Milim, "Labyrinth Fairy" Ramiris, and even "Night Demon Queen" Luminas also have a good relationship with Yang Cheng.

If you think about it carefully, more than half of the ten demon kings present actually have a very good relationship with Yang Cheng!

Even Qi Yi, who had noticed this, was now swirling a glass of red wine in one hand and resting her chin on the other as she looked at Yang Cheng and said, "You're probably not an undead, but a succubus, right?"

Rimuru, standing nearby, wholeheartedly agreed with Guy's teasing.

Good heavens, I don't even know when my own ox will be able to return, and Yang Cheng is doing well, Demon Queen, you just fall in love with every girl you see!

As for Milim and Ramiris, Rimuru is beyond words. He's indifferent to lolis and figurines.

Even a stunningly beautiful female demon queen like Chloe couldn't escape the clutches of that bastard Yang Cheng!

Meanwhile, in the Kingdom of Ingurasia, on the other side, there is a free alliance.

When Clayman was killed, even the mediocre Joker and Kazarim, who was possessing Cagalli, sensed it.

Even because Kazarim had left some means behind by Clayman, he overheard Rimuru and the others' conversation through Clayman.

"Kleiman is dead. Sky Queen Frey was pretending to be controlled by him in order to gather intelligence on us."

Our identities, including yours, have now been completely exposed.

Moreover, the Sky Queen Frey seems to have an extremely close relationship with Yang Cheng.

The failure of the attack by Falms and the Western Holy Church cannot be ruled out, as she may have tipped them off.

Kazalim's words caused Yuuki, who was leisurely reading a comic book, to drop his usual warm and gentle facade, and his face instantly turned ashen.

Yuuki was not a member of the mediocre Clowns, and he felt no sadness whatsoever over Clayman's death.

He was even so angry with Kleiman that he gritted his teeth!

It would have been one thing if he had died because of his incompetence, but now he's left them with this mess.

Yuuki is indeed very confident in his own abilities, otherwise he wouldn't have the ambition to rule the world.

But let's put it another way. They are still in a period of dormancy, and Kazalim and the others have not fully recovered their strength. Going against the Demon King's camp now would be nothing short of suicide.

"It seems we need to temporarily change our base. It's a pity about this free group. Although it was supposed to be to conceal our identities, we put a lot of effort into it beforehand."

That's right, because their identities were exposed, Yuuki and the others were preparing to make a quick getaway.

Based on the crushing defeats of the Kingdom of Falmus and the Western Holy Church, as well as the message sent back by Clayman before his death, Yuuki and the others could basically conclude that the Storm Dragon had escaped.

With two awakened demon kings and the catastrophic Storm Dragon, Yuuki currently lacks the confidence to confront them head-on.

"Where are we going to run to?"

Kazalim had no objection to Yuuki's plan to run away, and did not think that running away was inconsistent with his former status as a demon king.

Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles; their current actions are merely a strategic retreat.

After all, his power as the "King of Spells" had not fully recovered, so he couldn't just go and die for nothing.

"We're going to the Holy Roman Empire of Luberios. Laplace also said that the Pope of the Western Holy Church was killed by him, right?"

In that case, why don't we take this opportunity to seize power from the Holy Royal Kingdom and the Western Holy Church?

The Western Holy Church still holds considerable authority among human nations. We can certainly use the Church's name to declare that the Demon King of the Jura Forest is the enemy of all humanity.

Yuuki doesn't intend to confront Yangcheng and his group head-on, but he can continue to use others as always.

In his view, the Western Holy Church is a very good pawn.

As the righteous leader of humanity, the Western Holy Church not only has prestige and influence, but also possesses considerable inherent strength.

If they control the Western Holy Church and claim that the dead pope was killed by Yang Cheng and Rimuru, then the Jura Forest will undoubtedly become the enemy of all mankind.

Didn't that slime always want to live peacefully with humans?

Now he's determined to make the Jura Forest the enemy of all mankind!

However, what Yuuki and the others did not know was that the so-called Pope of the Western Holy Church was merely a puppet in name only.

The true ruler of the Holy Royal Kingdom of Luberios is the so-called "Goddess Luminas".

Moreover, this goddess Luminas has already become entangled with the Demon Kingdom Federation they speak of.

Yuuki and the others left the Free Group, leaving Rimuru and his group empty-handed. But now they're walking into another trap.
