Ritchie explained, "Boss, these guys are here to discuss a collaboration."
"Collaboration?" John raised an eyebrow, unsure of what kind of tricks the demon race was trying to pull this time.
Last time, a demon race genius also suggested working together, aiming for the Demon King's treasure in Flame City.
The Demon King's treasure was located in the city's secret area, but the ultimate prize, a priceless treasure of the demon race, had already been claimed by Owen and wouldn't be available again.
These demons couldn't be after the Demon King's treasure.
"They proposed co-managing Flame City with us," Ritchie continued. "I'm not sure what scheme they're brewing, so I've been stalling them."
"Co-manage Flame City?" John chuckled coldly, immediately guessing their true intention. They likely wanted to take over Flame City and establish their own faction.
