The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 258: Dividing the Spoils (Part 4)



However, managing to force two Master Level experts to use their Domain power consecutively within a month is an unprecedented achievement.

"If you're unsure, don't speak recklessly. Treat things that haven't happened as if they never did. You're a smart person; you should be aware of this. Some issues aren't actually issues until they become problems. Discovering problems too early isn't always wise." Feistin's voice carried a meaningful tone, as if he was sharing his life experience.

Luo Yan, of course, understood his implication, so he shrugged lightly.

"Alright... Truth be told, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have said anything. For instance, with Mr. Karamos, I haven't told him a thing."

Feistin curved his lips, smiling as he patted Luo Yan's arm, revealing his neat, white teeth.

"I'm glad you trust me like this. The Padric Family never disappoints its allies... So, are you ready? Next, I'll take you to visit your office, and everyone you meet along the way will salute you. I hope you won't be too surprised, because there will be much more of that in the future. They'll even chase you all the way to Thunder County."

Luo Yan took a deep breath, pretending to be very nervous.

"So, do I need to clock in here every day?"

Feistin laughed heartily.

"How could that be! Ordinary people hire lawyers for lawsuits, yet you think we really have to do as imagined by the outside Demons, gnawing boring rubber stamps at a square table the whole day? The only thing you need to do is let people know you're here, claim your piece of the pie, and then Hell's massive machinery can continue running, avoiding another Seldo Port incident... By the way, don't you have a trusted servant? If not, I could introduce you to some reliable guys."

Luo Yan knew the kind of people he would introduce, probably some folks with noble backgrounds who were somewhat disheartened, like fallen lords or citizens whose ancestors were Nobles.

They might not be very capable, but they were more than enough to act as servants or, say, secretaries, drivers, and the like.

Of course, Luo Yan couldn't agree with Feistin's suggestion.

In a place like the Demon City, you could hit a bunch of such Demons with a randomly thrown rock; who needs an introduction?

Moreover, if he couldn't resist and something really happened with Mia, wouldn't his driver become his father-in-law's driver?

That wouldn't do!

Though he didn't have a suitable candidate at the moment, his eyes landed on a Dream Demon boy standing dejectedly at the door with a wooden box in his arms.

Luo Yan vaguely remembered his name, it seemed to be Karisman, who once played an anonymous Dream Demon official in the "Abyss Times" — though he didn't disclose his name, the anonymity was little more than a fig leaf.

Now it seemed he was experiencing a career crisis, in the darkest moment of his demon life.

Following Luo Yan's gaze towards the Parliament Building's entrance, Feistin slightly raised his eyebrows.

"Are you sure? Letting a rookie handle such an important task?"

"He's no rookie, but an ant that can skillfully navigate every corner of the building, recognize every face, and know exactly whom to liaise with for every matter... if you compare this building to an ant nest. And isn't that exactly what I need?"

Luo Yan had a faint smile on his face as he continued, leisurely, while looking at the surprised Mr. Feistin.

"Moreover, as the newly appointed 29th member of the Parliament, do you think I should stand out, or reduce my presence as much as possible? You should know that the Maze of Thunder County is my real stronghold."

Being able to find a job by his own merit in the Parliament Building, that guy's ability is definitely up to par, and the interviewers had already conducted background checks and capability assessments for him.

Besides, he might have lost his job because of me.

In the aftermath of the purge, Zackro's controlled pawns were thoroughly washed away, but the pawns of the pawns might not be.

Those people wouldn't dare look at him, but dealing with a minor employee was too easy for them.

It's a breeze to make life difficult for someone, once things calm down.

Feistin understood Luo Yan's expression and suddenly laughed heartily, patting his shoulder and giving a thumbs up in admiration.

"Interesting! Go ahead! Let me see the legendary 'Charming power of that Demon King.' I bet... that unlucky young man will sell his soul to you."

Luo Yan looked at this unserious "colleague" speechlessly and then said.

"I don't need his soul."

"I just need him to be in a safe place, doing what he can."
