Ollie is indeed very talented in this area; she managed to concoct a drinkable milk tea in just two or three days.
The only problem is that the "pearls" in the milk tea never taste right.
Once he had drunk less than half a cup of milk tea, Ollie returned with a stack of newspapers.
Dak randomly picked out a document and started reading it.
During his time at the Duke's mansion, he maintained his good habit of reading newspapers, and even broadened his reading scope. In addition to the "Daily Wise Man," he would also read some more entertaining newspapers.
One of the newspapers, called "The Joker's Daily," lived up to its name, with its entire page filled with hilarious entertainment news that occasionally made people burst into laughter.
For example, in its analysis and evaluation of the "Demon King's Execution Ritual," *The Joker's Daily* went straight to the heart of the matter, writing in an extremely comical tone: "No way, no way, you don't really believe that old guy Abel Yekis could have figured out a way to completely kill the Demon King, do you? I think the Demon King must have escaped, which is why the Holy Church, in desperation, staged an execution ritual as a cover! Otherwise, why would normal people deliberately reveal where the Demon King is sealed, when they don't even know? What? You say the Holy Church is on the fifth level, deliberately deceiving the world to lure out the remnants of the Demon Clan? If you think so, then so be it."
In short, it's very funny.
How could the Demon King possibly escape from the seal, right?
……
As he read the newspaper, Dak pondered the situation outside.
During this period, the names of Arvit and Claire have appeared very frequently in various newspapers and magazines.
Within the Holy Church, there are also prominent figures such as the "Twin Knights."
Inside Basdia Prison, the beds that were vacated due to the Christmas escape seem to be filling up again.
The kingdom's bounty list is getting new entries every day.
However, only a few could resist showing themselves these days; the truly powerful forces were probably waiting for the arrival of July 15th.
Whether the "execution ceremony" was real or not, those people were already drawn to it.
The people have been attracted; how to proceed from here depends on the Holy Church's plans.
Prince Charles was excluded from the incident.
The Grand Princess faction, led by the Valkyrie, did not penetrate deep into the core.
Most of the other forces dared not easily intervene.
The king only issued orders to his subordinates to protect the capital.
Throughout the entire capital, countless people were watching the spectacle.
As the Church itself proclaims, this is a moment of "witnessing history."
Whether they succeed or not, this "demon king's execution" will be recorded in history.
To witness this historic moment, people from all over the world have flocked to the capital to witness the spectacle.
The capital city hadn't been this lively in a long time since the war ended.
Even those demi-humans who rarely set foot in the capital were drawn here.
Among them, there must be some who are deceiving others and have ulterior motives.
The resulting chaos left the eldest princess, who had taken charge of the conflict between the demi-humans and humans, exhausted.
The saying goes, "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts." Therefore, even the faction of the eldest princess, which has a relatively good view of subhumans, will not easily put themselves on the side of "supporting other races."
However, during this period of time, she suddenly came up with a slogan that was enough to raise a great banner.
That is: "Demi-humans are still humans!"
Physiologically, this is indeed true.
After all, there is indeed no reproductive isolation between humans and subhumans.
However, because the differences in appearance exceed the scope that skin color, hair color, and eye color can encompass, the gap between subhumans and humans has gradually widened.
Of course, the eldest princess wouldn't be foolish enough to actually raise the banner of "demi-humans are also human," as that would put her on the opposite side of most humans.
Because she changed the slogan to "Mixed-race people are also human beings".
Because mixed-race people are a small, vulnerable group, supporting them makes it easier to gain more sympathy.
This act of spreading goodwill will also improve her image.
And at the same time.
Prince Charles has also taken action.
As a "pro-war faction," he needed to promote the despicable aspects of "subhumans."
For example, the arrogance of the dwarves, the rudeness of the orcs, and the selfishness of the elves...
Reporting the conflicts between these subhumans and humans after they entered the capital, without any embellishment, is itself a form of guiding public opinion.
When people gradually realized that humans could not coexist with subhumans, the outbreak of war seemed inevitable.
Riding the wave of the "Demon King's Execution Ritual," countless people have been secretly plotting their own schemes.
……
"Young Master." A clear voice called out, bringing Dark back to his senses.
He turned to look at the doorway, where the twins—Eve and Irene—had appeared silently.
It seems to be to make the two sisters easier to distinguish, or to make it harder to distinguish them when they switch identities.
Eve and Irene were wearing maid outfits with black and white bases, respectively.
The two women's maid outfits were clearly modified, with very short skirts that revealed a section of their snow-white thighs between the skirts and stockings.
After a careful look, Dak discovered that Eve and Irene were both 1.6 meters tall.
As girls who are just over fourteen, they still have room to develop. But a flat chest seems to have already condemned some of them to death.
Eve and Irene look very alike, both with black hair, bangs, and a single ponytail. There are no distinguishing features on their faces, such as freckles.
But Dak vaguely remembered that they should have a mole in a different location: Eve's was on the left, while Irene's was on the right.
But he couldn't quite remember where the mole was.
However, since she's our own maid, there's nothing we need to worry about.
Filled with curiosity, young Master Dimon casually asked, "By the way, where are your moles located?"
The two sisters, who had initially looked indifferent, suddenly blushed.
But their long-standing upbringing and loyalty to their masters made them grit their teeth and endure the shame, even as their faces turned red, saying, "In the butt, butt..."
"Oh, so it's on the butt."
Dark said calmly.
It seems they had played in the water together when they were kids.
Then he beckoned and said, "You two, come here for a moment."
Eve and Irene walked over, their faces flushed.
The two sisters had excellent manners, clearly the product of being taught by their "virgin" teacher, Kagome.
Although they were simply dressed and wore no makeup, the delicate beauty of fourteen-year-old girls did not need any external adornment.
When the two got closer, Dak stretched out both hands, one on the left and one on the right.
Eve and Irene raised their eyelids and glanced at him, then hesitated for a moment as if trying to figure out what he meant, before simultaneously reaching out and placing their hands on Dark's palms, one on each side.
After many years, the three children's palms were reunited.
Dak couldn't help but sigh, "Time flies! My hands are already bigger than yours."
The two sisters frowned slightly, a glint of light hidden in their eyes.
When they were first adopted, they were trained to be Dark's personal maids, but were later "eliminated" for various reasons, which naturally led to some disappointment.
Dark looked up and said, "Tell me how you've spent these years."
Eve and Irene exchanged a glance, and Eve, being the older sister, spoke up: "It's nothing, just learning from Head Maid Chris."
Dark asked, "Is it hard?"
Eve shook her head: "How can the process of learning knowledge be considered arduous?"
Dark withdrew his hand and smiled: "Let me see what you've all learned?"
The two sisters then took a step back.
Eve said, "Head Maid Chris taught us 'Shadow Leakage'."
“Shadow Concealment?” Darks wondered. “Is it the kind of magic that lets you move through shadows?”
Eve nodded.
Dark couldn't help but say enviously, "So you guys have that kind of talent? Actually, I've always wondered what it feels like to sneak into the shadows."
Eve said, "It's not a particularly special feeling. Because once you enter the shadow, your body changes from three-dimensional to two-dimensional. So the inside of the seemingly thin shadow is relatively spacious. We ourselves can't even perceive that change. And for those with abilities, the shadow doesn't obstruct their vision. So overall, it's no different from diving into water. The only thing to worry about is your clothing."
Eve lifted her skirt, twirled around, and said, "Our clothes and weapons are made of special materials. Otherwise, we would be pushed out while infiltrating the shadows. Fortunately, magic cards, as magical creations closely related to ourselves, can be carried with us. However, Eve and I are not very talented in magic technology and have only mastered a few types of magic cards. And they are all products that were semi-finished products provided by Teacher Chris and then refined."
As she spoke, a shy smile appeared on her face.
Meanwhile, Irene, who was standing next to her sister, couldn't help but look at her with a slightly cold gaze when she saw her sister's frequent blushes.
Unlike her older sister, who always paid attention to the young master, Irene preferred to stay in the "Scorpio Palace Maid Corps" because the "freedom" of not having to serve anyone was what she wanted.
But being here, she certainly wouldn't show it.
After listening carefully to Eve's explanation, Dark asked, "What about the 'Spiritual Connection Technique'?"
Eve nodded with a smile: "Of course, I have a grasp on it."
She and Irene each possessed only three types of magic.
Two of them are "Shadow Concealment Technique" and "Spiritual Connection Technique".
Unlike the "Shadow Spell" which requires special talent, the "Spiritual Connection Spell" is a shared spell that requires people with a close blood relationship.
If they are twins, it will be easier to master.
Using the "Spiritual Connection Technique," one can instantly transmit what one sees and hears to another person in the form of magic, even when separated by thousands of miles. It is a special magic used for long-distance communication during wartime.
Unfortunately, there were not many people who could master the "Spiritual Connection Technique," and those who were not proficient faced many limitations. Therefore, severe information isolation and delays persisted during wartime.
Eve and Irene possess both the "Shadow Talent" and are proficient in the "Spiritual Connection Technique," making them extremely rare talents.
Having them as personal maids would be very convenient.
Unfortunately, they happened to encounter Ollie, who had already gained the recognition of the "Aries Saint Armor" at the age of thirteen, so it can be said that their luck was very bad.
However, as she grew older, Ollie's temperament became more gentle, and when Dark needed them, he brought them back.
"Now that you've mastered the 'Spiritual Connection Technique,' there shouldn't be any problems."
Dark smiled slightly.
In this way, he can watch the "Demon King's Execution Ritual" as he wishes, even without being there in person.
So it's time to get sunflower seeds, milk tea, and popcorn ready!
Ready, go!
……
After inviting the two sisters to breakfast, Dak had them perform a demonstration of "telepathy," with Eve accompanying them while Irene went to the back mountain.
What Irene saw and heard, after being processed by Eve's brain, was projected onto the snow-white wall.
The resolution and frame rate of the projection are determined by Irene and Eve's magical output and control abilities.
When the "Spiritual Connection Technique" is activated, a tranquil forest scene appears on the wall, followed by the rustling of leaves and faint animal cries. The entire room seems to have been suddenly transported to the dense forest behind the mountain, creating a sense of immersion.

Even at dusk, when the demons appeared, the royal capital was still bustling with people.
The Griffin Knights, who guard the capital, joined forces with the city guards and deployed their forces throughout the entire capital, with soldiers patrolling almost every other street.
Even so, the conflicts between outsiders have not stopped.
Some of the young knights who had just joined the Griffin Knights had no idea that their first mission would be "watching the streets".
