The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Avister slightly raised his chin.

"What? Are you scared?"

The commotion caught the attention of passing pedestrians, who stopped and cast curious glances in their direction.

Luo Yan chuckled lightly, waving his magic wand. A bony skeleton hand emerged from the ground, picking up the glove lying there.

"I just think it's a waste of time, interrupting my date with the lovely... Miss Vivian."

That was close.

He almost exposed the scandal of the Colin family himself.

Suddenly, Luo Yan felt a weight on his arm. Turning slightly, he saw a certain vampire hanging entirely on his arm. The ears visible through the strands of hair were as red as heated horseshoes, and as for the face... it was completely hidden beneath the hair.

Hmm...

Did I say something wrong?

Seeing the infamous Miss Colin, who was as fierce as an Evil Dragon, in such a delicate and meek state, Baron Avister grew even more jealous and gritted his teeth.

"Very well, three days from now, we will meet in the arena of Demon City—"

Luo Yan shook his head.

"Let's not make it so complicated. How about the nearby park?"

"Huh?" Avister was momentarily stunned, looking somewhat at a loss. "Now, right now?"

He quickly glanced at Miss Sandra beside him, seeking her opinion.

However, she merely gave him a cold glance, pretending not to know him.

Luo Yan raised an eyebrow.

"Are you scared?"

Backing out is an option.

Luo Yan actually hoped this guy would back off.

He wasn't interested in weaklings. Choosing the park was a way to give this guy some dignity.

The Dragon family has many titles, so losing a baron territory doesn't matter. But Avister might really have only one baron title; losing it would mean becoming a commoner.

However, there aren't many sane folks in Hell, and Avister clenched his fists, his anger flaring up.

"Scared? Human, you're playing with fire!"

"I have no such interest."

Luo Yan glanced at the park next to the commercial street.

"Let's settle this quickly then."

Extraordinary Power doesn't necessarily equate to absolute strength.

This guy's strength might seem Silver Level, but essentially he's no different from a certain Baron Ges—both empty suits, with the former at most having trained seriously.

After all, in Hell, strength rules supreme, unlike human society which values rules. A noble without Extraordinary Power can still dominate his territory with impunity, but a demon without such power, despite having a noble title, might get overstepped by other demons who do have it on their turf.

Luo Yan called this "server culture."

He's a flexible person, able to easily adapt to both the ways of Hell and the surface.

The group moved to the park, where demons and undead gathered around, evidently interested in this duel.

Seeing more and more onlookers, Vivian reluctantly released Luo Yan's arm, whispering softly.

"Be careful... I'll be right here waiting for you."

Before she finished speaking, she shot an angry glare at Avister, like a fierce hellhound.

Baron Avister couldn't help but shiver.

He wasn't afraid of Luo Yan, after all, the latter was also a baron, with no advantage in status. As for the Demon King, that's a position, like a governor, only possessing authority in specific places, nothing special in Demon City.

But this little ancestor from the Colin family...

Her reputation in the noble circles of Demon City is no joke.

She's a madwoman undefeated among her peers, baring her teeth to anyone!

However, given the situation, he had no way out.

His only chance now was to defeat Luo Yan soundly in this duel, to make Miss Colin see reality.

He had to show her that this man was nothing more than a strong-on-the-outside, weak-on-the-inside playboy.

Watch, Padric—no, Miss Colin!

He's not worthy of your favor!

Baron Avister regained his fighting spirit, cleared his throat, and recited in a voice filled with cadence.

"I am Avisler Reeler, Lord of the Blackthorn Hill Barony, member of the Stonewell Magic Species Observation Association, honorary vice-chairman of the Flame Demon and Goblin Friendly Cooperation and Exchange Meeting, secretary-general of the Goblin Torture Research Association..."

After reciting over a dozen titles, Baron Avister finally slowly drew out a short scepter inlaid with rubies.

Luo Yan watched him expressionlessly, preparing to let him strike first, but instead, that incessantly babbling mouth failed to utter a spell and squeezed out another preamble.

"...This duel concerns honor, loyalty, the purity and nobility of bloodlines!"

"I want everyone in Demon City to know that the sanctity of love is unbreakable, and the dignity of nobles is beyond question!"

"..." Luo Yan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he lowered the raised magic wand.

He wasn't the only one left speechless.

The embarrassed Miss Sandra had already slipped into the crowd, and standing at the edge of the crowd, Miss Vivian couldn't help but yawn for the second time.

The spectators, seeing no action for a while, had some demons leaving, only to be replaced by new curious demons and undead.

A scarred demon veteran sidled up to the nearby goblin and quietly asked.
