Inventor of another world, the little female ghost wants to kidnap me

Chapter 479: Rumors Reappear

The first stop of the human race’s refuge plan is the city of Kser in the south of the Kingdom of Veratis.

As the central city-state in the south, the city of Kser is located on a plain with a vast area. It can easily accommodate hundreds of thousands of people and is also suitable for docking on the sky island.

When they arrived at the city of Rezevit, people from all over had already filled the big city-state.

The invasion of the demons is no longer a secret, and almost everyone on the entire continent knows about it.

It would be a great blessing for them to be able to find an absolutely safe shelter.

Most people who come to Kser City think so.

However, it cannot be ruled out that a minority of people hold dissenting views and are hesitant.

So the first day after Miss launched the plan did not go smoothly.

At first, the people who came from Vita City under the leadership of Baron Mista did not see anything unusual.

They landed on the island according to King Cassius' instructions, passed through the city of Rezevit and entered the World Tree.

Inside the World Tree, Miss had already prepared a temporary residence for them.

Just when Cassius thought that it wouldn't take long to complete the mission in Kser City, an accident happened.

The news that Miss was the Demon King spread in the city again.

The negative news brought by the previous invasion of the Theocracy has not been eliminated in the Kingdom of Veratis.

For a moment, the city of Kser was in an uproar.

More and more people began to fear the huge island in the sky.

"Don't you know that the Brave Miss is actually the Demon King?"

"The current king, Cassius, killed his own brother to seize the throne. I heard that he was bewitched by the demon king, Miss, and has now become a follower of the demon clan."

"I've heard that Mis is not a good person. Didn't someone say before that he used the residents of an entire city in the Kingdom of Firris to feed the dragon?"

"Is this evacuation plan going to kill us all?"

"Don't you think about it? His big move was not stopped by the demons. He must have discussed it with other demon kings."

In addition to these extreme rumors and rebuttals from those who are familiar with Miss, there are also many people who stand on a neutral perspective to refute the rumors for Miss.

"Even though you said that others were going to harm you, didn't you still rush to Keser City?"

"If the hero is really the demon king and wants to kill us, why not just do it directly? There is no need to go through so much trouble."

"I never thought that after so many years, there are still people who believe the rumors spread by those unscrupulous merchants in Tanis City."

"You actually said that His Majesty the King is a follower of the demon clan. How ridiculous! Is the entire Adventurer's Association also a follower of the demon clan?"

"Even the dean of Norn University, the great magician Mr. Weisman, is helping to send everyone to the island in the sky. Do you even doubt Mr. Weisman?"

"If you don't believe in the hero, you can just leave Keser City. Why are you still staying here?"

The quarrel spread to almost every street, but rational people still made up the majority and suppressed the arrogance of those who spread rumors.

However, some suspicion still arises in the hearts of many people.

As more and more people are hesitant, the efficiency of people landing on the island is gradually decreasing.

During this period of time when there are too many unknown factors, every minute wasted on the sky island may affect Miss's entire plan.

As the king of this country, Cassius sincerely wants to protect all the people for his brother Cross.

After such an accident happened, he was more anxious than anyone else at the scene.

After handing over the work at hand to Baron Mista, Cassius decisively returned to the World Tree and found Miss.

"President, the rumor has spread throughout the city. What should we do?"

Faced with the little yellow-haired boy's question, Miss seemed to be thinking about something.

Cassius felt more at ease when he saw Miss's thoughtful expression.

"Great, the president is thinking of a solution..."

Unexpectedly, what Miss said took him by surprise.

"That's not right, Cassius. Isn't this rumor too true? What they said makes so much sense that I can't refute it."

Cassius was confused, "President?"

Miss said seriously: "I am indeed the Demon King, there is no problem. It does seem a bit strange that the Demon King is leading the human race to seek refuge. How about we just forget about it and make an evacuation plan or something."

Cassius' expression froze instantly, "President!"

Missy laughed out loud when he saw the little yellow-haired boy's reaction. "I was just kidding. Don't panic. This matter is not that serious."

After a moment of silence, Cassius finally responded, "President, did you know this would happen?"

Miss put away his smile, waved his hand, and placed images of all the planned refuge cities in the air.

He glanced at all the light screens and said in a deep voice, "There is nothing unusual."

Cassius frowned and carefully observed each picture. "Isn't it a good thing that there is no abnormality? No, it's strange. Why didn't the demons make any moves?"

Miss’s publicity for the human evacuation plan was very generous.

The magic scrolls of [Mansion Fragment Collection Device] are not only placed in large city-states.

After so many years of development, the [Xile] Chamber of Commerce has already spread its information chain across the entire continent.

Even in the deep mountains and dense forests and rural villages, magic scrolls are placed.

It was originally used to promote new product news, but unexpectedly it played a crucial role in Miss's plan this time.

With the news spreading so widely, it is impossible that the Theocracy had not heard of Miss's plan.

"Could it be that the demons and Michelle are not planning to take action against these people?"

Cassius was puzzled. If it were him, he would definitely take action.

Miss brought Cassius to the edge of Rezewitt City and looked down at a corner of Kser City.

"Who said they didn't take any action? Isn't this effective?"

Cassius squatted down and looked at the crowd below. "President, are you saying that spreading rumors is their action?"

Miss nodded. "It's a simple truth. Think about it. If you believed that I would kill everyone, would you still rush to Kser City?"

Cassius didn't even need to think about this question. "Definitely not. It seems that there is something wrong with those who spread the rumors."

Miss leaned against a tree with his arms folded across his chest, closing his eyes and thinking.

"This is nothing more than an attempt to delay time, but if it's just to delay time, it seems to be meaningless..."

"Is there really no other action?"

"Are you planning to surprise them later, or...are you not planning to stop them at all?"

"Arrogant? Or do you have other intentions?"

"Could it be... that what I'm doing is exactly what you want to see?"
