The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 940 - 292: Demon City Trembles!

The bright purple light streamed across the glass window, casting onto the lectern and illuminating a slowly flipping magic book.

It was the history lesson on magic curses.

Standing on the stage was an old Flame Demon scholar, whose voice sounded like breaking lava bubbles, occasionally spitting out droplets that burned awake the sleepy students.

"...During the decisive battle between the Netherworld and the surface humans for the Blood Red Wilderness, a noble Blood Race noble turned the tide. It so happens that this gentleman's great-great-great-granddaughter is in this class. Let's invite her—"

As he spoke, he cast expectant eyes at Vivian, who was sleeping with her eyes open.

No response for a while.

Heneviet quietly nudged Vivian's arm, and the sleeping Vivian raised her head drowsily, the crystal bubble hanging from the corner of her mouth popped with a "pop," finally waking her.

As the darling granddaughter of Prince Colin, being flattered by the teaching professor was common for her, especially in these unimportant peripheral courses...and she had long grown accustomed to it.

Anyway, even if she stood up and answered completely off-topic, or even described the dream she just had, the old guy on the stage would help her piece it into the standard answer.

However, unlike usual—

Just as she pushed the chair and stood up, a muffled "boom!" sounded from outside the window, and the entire lecture theater started shaking uneasily.

What's going on?!

The freshly awakened Vivian looked around blankly, unsure of what was happening.

The surrounding demons were equally bewildered, but upon seeing Vivian, they all suddenly showed an understanding expression.

"Tsk, it's her again."

"Just a thousand years after Colin's ancestors defeated the surface human coalition, his great-great-great-granddaughter is playing pranks in the classroom...truly embarrassing the Colin family."

"Shh...be careful that she hears you."

"Heh...haha! So what if she hears? Dare to fight one-on-one!"

"But...you lost last time."

"That was last time! This time will definitely be different!"

Hearing the babble of these demons, Vivian tapped her groggy head, frowned, and impatiently spoke:

"What are you arguing about, want to fight?"

As soon as she spoke, the room instantly fell silent.

Though all present were High-level Demons, this was the Middle Department, and Silver level was already considered exceptionally talented...

And this person was not only a descendant of a military door but also possessed Gold level strength even among top-level high school students.

Watching Vivian baring her teeth and threatening classmates on the spot, the professor on the lectern probably felt a loss of face and heavily coughed before weakly whispering.

"Vivian...if you're feeling unwell, you can tell the teacher, there's no need to use this approach..."

"Feeling unwell? What do you mean," Vivian frowned, "I feel great!"

The professor who was glared at instinctively shut his mouth, and the once extinguished Flame Crystal was about to start burning again.

The classroom continued to shudder.

The Flame Demon professor seemed to realize it wasn't Vivian's doing but rather some force from outside the academy.

Not just Demon High School.

The entire Demon City was involved, and numerous demons flew across the sky, seemingly gathering toward the Central Divine Hall.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the classroom, and a tutor wearing a pitch-black uniform with an inspector badge on the chest strode in, face solemn.

"Everyone quiet!"

Seeing the tutor standing at the door, the Flame Demon professor finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked over there with authority.

"What's going on?"

"The school is also communicating with the outside; this is unlikely to be a regular earthquake, and reportedly the epicenter is from above, likely some extraordinary event..." Faced with the official professor, the tutor immediately showed respect while lowering his voice as much as possible, trying not to let the students hear.

However, despite his quiet speech, Vivian's exceptional hearing caught every word.

Above?

The surface human world?

Wouldn't that mean...it's her brother's domain?

The previously drowsy Vivian suddenly perked up, her complexion changing.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the Flame Demon professor gestured for the tutor to wait and turned back to the podium.

"Students, today's lesson ends early...all of you return to your dorms, don't wander around the campus, and wait for notification from the teaching department."

As soon as his voice dropped, sounds of pushing chairs spread, especially the Little Demons, who rushed out and flew towards the cafeteria.

Vivian was the first to throw her chair aside and quickly exited the classroom.

Watching Vivian's unnatural demeanor, Heneviet, having packed up her books, jogged after her, concerned while asking.

"Where are you going? So hastily."

"Going back to the dorm to write a letter!"

"...To your brother again?"

"Yes!"

Vivian readily nodded in acknowledgment, but then asked with confusion.

"How do you know?"

Seeing Vivian's puzzled face, Heneviet sighed and smiled helplessly.

"You have your concern written all over your face...hurry up then."

...

On the other side, the Demon King Management Department, the corridor was empty, and only the sound of paper and feather pen reverberated in the office, as a few Hell bureaucrats tried hard to appear busy.

While outside, something momentous seemed to have happened, even alarming the Central Divine Hall, but it had nothing to do with the Demon King Management Department, a peripheral division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Their sole job was convincing Parliament's nobles that they played a crucial role in maintaining the connection between the Demon King Territory and Demon City, ensuring this age-old department wasn't dismantled.
