After Transmigrating As A Demon, I've Been Adopted By Angels! Chapter 117
Advertisement
At the same time, in Blue Flame City.
In the City Lord's main hall, a middle-aged man sat on the throne.
The man's temples were already white, but his face was still as sharp as a knife. A terrifying dark gold light flashed past his eyes.
He was dressed in a luxurious long robe. His face was silent as he looked at guard Kroll who was kneeling in front of him.
The middle-aged man was the new City Lord of Blue Flame City, Myers.
At this moment, Kroll, who was kneeling in the hall, was kneeling on the ground with his hands behind his back. He was locked by handcuffs and anklets. At this moment, his face was pale from fear, and his entire body was trembling.
Bean-sized beads of sweat were left on his face and dripped onto the stone floor of the hall, making a ticking sound.
Kroll's pupils kept shaking. He did not dare to look directly at Myers.
"Tell me the truth.
"Where did you get so many gold coins from your pocket?"
Beside him, an old man said to Kroll in a hoarse voice.
"Sir...
"I, I..."
Kroll was about to say something when he was interrupted by the old man.
"Kroll, you don't have to think of any excuses. You don't have to lie to us.
"Lord Myers already has spies all over Blue Flame City. Don't tell me that you still think that the Blue Flame City now is still the original Blue Flame City?
"Tell us everything, and we can make you suffer less."
Krolll shivered and quickly told him about his trip to the dock to collect taxes from Malfoy.
After Kroll stopped speaking, Myers slowly stroked his beard and said, "Three people who followed the boatman into the city...

"Interesting. To be able to take out so much money at one time, I'm afraid that they are not ordinary people."
"Elder Almos, I'll have to trouble you to go and find out what these people are planning to do.
"Report to me immediately if you've found out the truth."
The elder called Almos nodded and asked, "Lord Castellan, how exactly is Kroll going to deal with this guy?"
Myers' eyes were indifferent and there was no change in his expression.
"How are you going to deal with him?"
"He has hidden the tax money and should be beheaded."
Hearing Myers' words, Kroll was so scared that he trembled. He quickly knelt in front of Myers and kept kowtowing.
"City Lord, I was wrong!
"I was really wrong. Please spare my life. I still have a hungry child at home and a wife waiting for me to go home.
"I only beg you to spare my life. I'm willing to work for you!"
Even though there was bright red blood oozing out from his forehead, he did not dare to stop.
However, the City Lord of Blue Flame city, Myers, did not care about Kroll's begging. He merely closed his eyes and pointed in Kroll's direction.
Beside him, Almos understood and took a step forward. He immediately dragged Kroll by the collar out of the hall.
Kroll was pulled out of the hall, and not long after, a wail spread throughout the entire Blue Flame City.
Myers, who had already closed his eyes on the throne, said to himself at this moment, 'The three of us, I hope we don't add any more variables to our plan.'
...
His gaze turned to the streets of Blue Flame City.
Davis was walking at the front, while Emily and Wharton followed closely behind.

This was Emily's first time leaving Pompeii City and heading to other cities. Although she was trying her best to remain calm, a hint of curiosity could still be seen in her eyes.
"Wharton, have you already planned your future life?"
Davis turned his head and asked.
Wharton thought for a moment and quickly replied, "Master, I plan to plant roots in Blue Flame City after this.
"I plan to buy a small house here. After that, I plan to become an apprentice in a blacksmith or a carpenter's shop and start learning a new skill.
"Emily is already 17 years old. Although Emily is already a little older, I still hope that Emily can go to school and study properly."
Wharton glanced at Emily and continued, "Emily's dead mother's greatest wish before she left was to hope that Emily could live well and be like an ordinary little girl on the street, living an ordinary life."
Davis smiled faintly.
"If that's the case, it looks like my intervention was a mistake."
"No, no, master, it's not like that.
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been killed by Kartoth.
"As for Jack and those old hooligans, if they didn't pay their tribute on time, they would definitely attack Emily.
"Without you, I'm afraid Emily's life would be unimaginable."
Wharton hurriedly said.
"Didn't you say that master's enemies are more powerful than we can imagine? Although you've said so, we still want to follow you.
"We'll stay in Blue Flame City. As long as you give the order, we can come back to serve you at any time.
"If Emily can study in a magic academy, she'll have a chance to become a noble in the Belgravia Empire. At that time, we'll be able to serve you better, won't we?"
Wharton said very respectfully.
Emily frowned and said to Wharton, "Father, I don't want to study.
"With our strength, we can completely control the entire Blue Flame City in a short period of time."
Wharton glanced at Emily and shouted, "You don't even want to fulfill your mother's wish?"
Emily frowned and immediately wilted.
In the distance, Almos appeared at the corner of the street.
According to Kroll's description, the Davis trio in the distance matched the target.
"I've found these three people."
Almos said in a hoarse voice.
Then, he heard Emily's words.
Almos' eyes could not help but instantly narrow.
These three people were just like what City Lord Myers had described. They had come to Blue Flame City with some unspeakable secrets.
In that case, Almos was prepared to test them.
Davis suddenly sensed something and turned to look at the corner of the street.
Almos was shocked. He quickly flashed and left the place, directly appearing on the roof.
He looked at Davis in surprise, feeling somewhat shocked in his heart.
"I have clearly used my concealment skill. How could he still discover me?
"No, I'm afraid it's just a coincidence."
Almos shook his head and continued to follow Davis and the other two.
Davis turned his head to look at the corner where Almos had stopped. There was no reaction.

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."
