Chereads / My Demonic Empire System / Chapter 21 - Night treasure

Chapter 21 - Night treasure

Wasteland has forest on both sides, Frozen area on one side and ocean on the other side. Wasteland shares a border of more than a hundred kilometers with the sea.

Seaside would have been a very good tourist destination as its environment was very relaxing.

But due to its location in a place like Wasteland, it was inhabited by many terrible monsters and tribes. So it was practically impossible.

In the heart of a lush, tropical jungle, nestled near the sparkling waters of the sea, there lies a village unlike any other. This is the home of the Blue Lizardmen Tribe, a proud and ancient people who have lived in harmony with nature for generations.

The village is a sight to behold, with its colorful huts made of woven palm leaves and shells, surrounded by vibrant tropical flowers and towering palm trees. The air is filled with the sweet scent of exotic fruits and the sound of waves crashing against the shore.

The Blue Lizardmen are a peaceful and close-knit community, led by their wise and respected chief, Kailani. He is a strong and compassionate leader, known for her wisdom and fairness in guiding his people.

Life in the village is simple but fulfilling. The Blue Lizardmen spend their days fishing in the crystal-clear waters, tending to their gardens, and crafting beautiful jewelry and pottery from the shells and stones they find along the shore.

But despite the beauty and tranquility of their village, the Blue Lizardmen face challenges and struggles like any other community. The sea, their greatest ally and provider, can also be their greatest enemy. Storms and rough seas can wreak havoc on their fishing boats and crops, threatening their way of life.

The people living in this tribe were descendants of the Sea Lizardmen.

Due to which they are skilled in using water magic. The tribe has about 1,500 members. They live near the shore. The Blue Lizardmen lived in houses is built at a height of 10 meters from the ground.

At present, the largest house located in the center of the tribe, which is the building and workplace of the chief of the tribe, has received several guests.

The chief of the tribe, the chief hunter and several elders Blue Lizardmen who sit nervously.

Three people are sitting in front of them.

A snakeman, and two demons. A male and a female.

Luvo is here as a guide and ancillary team member.

"Um...even if what you say is correct, but... we don't think it will be an easy thing to do."

said a Blue Lizardmen

The male demon gets annoyed by this.

He is huge. His skin is red and he wears full armor.

"Tch! You don't have to think about it. You just tell us if you'll give it to us."

The Blue Lizardmen chief became very worried.

A few weeks ago everything was going well. But two weeks ago these people came to our village. They ask us to be under them. As they lost the Dino tribe and the serpentine tribe which were the strongest in the green forest. So we surrender without resistance. Since fighting them is nothing but foolishness. But they did not oppress us. They helped us a lot. They have introduced us to new things that have greatly improved our quality of life. But should we still give them what our tribe has been handling for generations??

The Blue Lizardmen leader looks at the other Blue Lizardmen in the room.

They are also in dilemma.

The female Demon notices this.

She is an adult woman with long purple hair with dark ends. She has pointy ears and two horns on the side above her ears. She wears armor with a cape.

"I am giving you some time. Discuss among yourselves. Let me know the result."

"Thank you very much, Lady Infera."

The Blue Lizardmen bowed their heads.

"But remember I expect positive results."

"Umm...Hmmm"

The three of them then left from there.

..

Many Blue Lizardmen have gathered outside.

Infera gives them a murderous look causing all the lizards that stormed around to get scared and run away.

"Lady Infera, wouldn't they have agreed to our offer more easily if we had intimidated them a bit more?"

"Bufuor, don't think so much about this. I want to know their opinion on this. So give them time. I don't want to force them first. "

"I understand"

". . . "

"Let's explore the surrounding areas."

"Huh! Yes"

Dozens of Demon soldiers were waiting for them outside the village chief's house. As they walked, the soldiers followed them.

The environment in this place is great and one can enjoy the beautiful view of the sea from here. Best place for vacation.

But the people here were primitive.

"Do you know where the Demon Station is?"

"Yes, I know."

"Okay, let's go check it out."

After the Demon army captured the tribes, they set up a Demon station in each tribe. The function of this Demon station is to see that the tribes do not rebel and to provide various assistance to the tribal people. They came to a place ten minutes walk from the village of the Blue Lizardmen people.

They stopped in front of a two storied house surrounded by many coconut trees.

On it flies a black flag with a helmet in the middle There are four horns on the head and two swords on either side. It is the flag of the Demon Army.

A goat demon approached them.

He bowed to Infera.

"Mam, I'm 67th Squad Leader Sugu and In charge of this station."

"I am Infera el Dazar. 9th Battalion Commander. "

"Hmm"

"..."

"Are you having any trouble here?"

"No, Commander Infera. The people here are very nice. Besides, the people here are very happy with us for the things we have provided them. They have started to develop themselves further."

"Very good"

Alan has created many everyday items due to his industrial area. which they started distributing among the tribes. This greatly increased their standard of living as these people were very backward. So for them these things were heavenly things. Their loyalty has increased a lot.

It also produces many crops through Zone Two. which is distributed among the tribal people besides meeting the needs of the Demons. Alan provides tribal people with seeds, agricultural tools and necessary training so that they can use them well and cultivate crops in their respective areas. As the green forest land is very fertile, they are supplied to every tribe living in the green forest.

In this they continue to improve.

"But Mam, the people here are very primitive. We still need to establish hospitals, educational institutions, markets. Also there is not much to eat here except coconut water, seaweed and sea fish. We need to increase the food list here. "

"Hmm….I will inform the headquarters about this."

"Thank you!"

...

...

"What should we do!? Shall we give them that thing?!"

"But our tribe has protected it for generations. We can't give it to them like this."

said an elder.

"So what do you want us to do! If they do not get what they want, they will not sit quietly! Do you want our tribe to be destroyed!!"

said the chief hunter.

They hesitated.

"But we cannot forget our heritage like this. Our tribe has been caring it for generations. Shall we insult our ancestors like this!?"

"Huh! What is the meaning of this policy? What do we get from all this? You know how strong they are.

We cannot last a moment against them. They will easily wipe out our tribe. So these stupid things should not be said. This is nothing but stupidity. Also it is totally unnecessary for us. We did not benefit from it. So giving them that is not a bad idea. Also don't forget we got a lot of benefits from them.

They have improved the daily life of our people. They are also teaching us about fish farming and crop cultivation. Which will benefit us a lot. So we should express our gratitude to them."

"You want to see an entire tribe destroyed to protect that useless thing!?"

"We didn't want to say that."

Elders get very nervous.

They began to sweat.

It was very stressful. A decision they have to make.

The village chief is quietly listening to everyone.

Since he was the village head, he had to take everyone's opinion seriously and take decisions. This is an important decision that will determine the fate of their tribe.

Everyone looked at the village chief.

The atmosphere in the room is very excited.

Everyone is nervous.

"It is true that we have been dealing with that thing for a long time. But I also think that it is useless for us.

We Blue Lizardmen are proud of our tribe's culture and history and know how to protect and respect it well.

But the current situation is different.

We are in a situation where one wrong move and our entire tribe will be destroyed. So we cannot take any action by being emotional.

Hope you understand it well."

Everyone nodded nervously.

"It is for our tribe and our future generations that we must protect it."

....

Infera and the others approached the village chief again.

"So have you made up your own mind?"

The Blue Lizardmen were nervous.

"Lady Infera, we have thought a lot about this. Although it was a very difficult decision, we have come to the conclusion that we have agreed to give you the 'Night treasure '.

"Hmm...thanks for your cooperation. I will tell the king about your cooperation. He will surely give you something good in return."

"Thank you, lady Infera."

Bufuor began to laugh.

"Hahahaha!"

"You have made a good decision, Lizardmen. You have become wise."

"Umm..."

"Eh…."

"Bufuor, you listen"

"Yes ma'am!"

"Tell our men to get ready"

"Oh sure!"

"Village chief Kailani , I want the 'Night treasure' tonight. And You also come with us"

"Umm...I understand, My lady."

Infera's eyes lit up.

Because she has a great responsibility and she has completed a part of it. She doesn't want to disappoint her king in any way.
