Why must the devil be Defeated?

The purpose of Hette Yada is clear, she wants Shane to use the Holy Sword to liberate her tribe members who are encased in ice.

She herself had said before that this matter, for others, might be very troublesome, but for Shane, it would be just a piece of cake.

That's why Hette Yada, upon knowing the hero had reappeared, didn't hesitate to personally come to the Human Realm.

"Originally, I wanted to ask for the help of Princess Luosilusti of the Mitra Kingdom, the kingdom treasure, but the princess has not yet grown up. Her talent and potential are terrifying, yet she may not be able to handle it in terms of strength. Plus, she holds a special status, with the Goddess of Fate Lidas and many other goddesses of the Divine Race caring for her, I don't dare act rashly even with my own situation."

Thus, Hette Yada explained to Shane.

"All these years, I have also been searching for people with spatial and temporal abilities, but such people, regardless of their existence, might not have enough power to lift the ice encasement of the Ice Woman clan members."

The Ice Woman clan members, upon reaching adulthood, become Level 80 experts among the Demon Clan; some are even at the Legendary level. Such individuals, in moments of life and death, would unleash uncontrollable power, using the ability of Ice Luo Qianliu; one can imagine how powerful that force would be.

At the very least, even a Limit Level expert like Hette Yada couldn't do anything about the ice encasement of those clan members.

As long as they are Legendary level Ice Woman clan members, the eruptive uncontrolled power of Ice Luo Qianliu would be enough to threaten a Limit Level being like Hette Yada.

Even those Ice Woman clan members who have not reached the Legendary level, their Ice Luo Qianliu might not threaten Hette Yada, but trying to use her own power to lift the ice encasement without affecting them is still an uncertain task for her.

As for the transcend level demons, their power is too great and lacks the Ice Luo Qianliu ability possessed by Hette Yada, like a mismatch; to solve it would require brute strength.

But this way, it is hard to guarantee the safety of the Ice Woman clan members encased in ice.

"In any case, this issue is still quite a headache," Chafne shrugged helplessly, "It's not that we cannot solve it; it just happens to be stuck at such a bothersome point that we have no idea how to act to ensure infallibility."

If the Ice Woman clan members were weaker, there would be no need for demons to act; Hette Yada could easily resolve the issue.

The problem is, there are no weaklings in the Ice Woman clan. Reaching adulthood at Level 80, even the weakest one could completely encase a Legendary level expert in ice during an uncontrolled eruption, putting them into eternal slumber.

This is the unique skill, transcending conventional power, always manifesting miraculous effects unexpectedly, or creating unforeseen troubles.

Some people's unique skills from birth cause them significant troubles, like Tielle's unique skill causing her to grow horns, or others having a three-headed and six-armed unique skill, turning a perfectly good person into a monster, with some unique skills bringing unimaginable side effects, harming their life and those around them.

Compared to such people, those awakening with useless unique skills are rather fortunate.

The Ice Woman clan's Ice Luo Qianliu is indeed a very powerful type that shouldn't be casually possessed.

Without the corresponding mindset, spirit, and realm, possessing overly powerful strength would inevitably lead to uncontrollable frenzy.

The fate of the Ice Woman clan members stands as a living example.

"In the past, when His Majesty the Demon King was still around, this problem could be easily solved. Even if I lost control and went berserk, he could wave his hand and liberate me, right?"

With this sentence, Hette Yada then closed her mouth.

"...Yes," Chafne collected her smile, musing as if in reminiscence, murmuring, "Though she always appeared merciless, she never failed any task we requested of her."

The atmosphere suddenly became quite heavy.

Shane glanced at Hette Yada, then at Chafne, and suddenly spoke up.

"From what you are saying, I could do the same with a wave of my hand, but I'm not at all merciless, am I?"

With one sentence, the heavy atmosphere was immediately broken.

"You..."

Chafne rolled her eyes at Shane.

But she knew Shane purposefully changed the subject.

Thus, Chafne continued along Shane's lines.

"If you can really solve the Ice Woman clan's problem, then there will likely be significant upheaval in the Demon Realm's forces."

Right?

As a clan second only to the Dragon Race in the Demon Realm, although the Ice Woman clan is sparse in population, each member can awaken powerful unique skills like Ice Luo Qianliu, with many being strong, including several Legendary level individuals.

In the Enchanting Demon Territory's first clan, the Stone Woman clan, there are three Legendary level experts, while the Ice Woman clan, excluding Hette Yada, has no fewer than five Legendary level beings.

Additionally, every Ice Woman clan member acts as a ticking time bomb, possibly erupting any time, dragging enemies with them into a time-frozen reality. If such a tribe reemerges in the world, the disturbance it would cause in the Demon Realm can be easily imagined.

Of course, as the pinnacle of the Demon Race, the demons would surely be happy to see this scene.

After all, it represents a considerable reinforcement of the Demon Race's deterrent power.

"Now, my dear Liel must be worried."

Chafne cheerfully said such things, not feeling sorry at all.

"Are you a devil?"

Shane asked this seriously.

Hette Yada earnestly promised Shane.

"If you, my lord, can help me rescue my clan members this time, then the Ice Woman clan will owe you a great debt, and no matter what happens in the future, we will repay it."

Hette Yada's promise isn't solemn, the content doesn't seem that groundbreaking, but Shane felt that precisely because of this, the benefits within are even more unimaginable.

No way around it.

"The people of the Ice Woman Clan are straightforward; they won't engage in unnecessary twists and turns. Once they promise to repay a favor, even if it means risking their lives, they would do so without hesitation, wouldn't they?"

Chafne smiled at Shane.

"This time, you've got quite a bargain, my lord hero."

Indeed, Shane had landed quite a deal.

For him, lifting the freezing of the Ice Luo Qianliu was not hard; it was merely a small effort.

Yet for such a small effort, he could gain the passionate assistance of a team featuring one at the Limit Level, five at the Legendary Level, and several other experts from the Demon Clan—it's like pie falling from the sky.

Though, with Shane's prowess, he had even stronger allies by his side, bringing over such a powerful force as the Ice Luo Qianliu, even Magic users would find themselves unsure how to handle it. This was definitely a profitable decision.

"Alright, I'll try my best."

Shane nodded, agreeing to the matter.

"Thank you."

Hette Yada relaxed her expression, softly expressing her gratitude.

The words were simple, and the tone was understated, yet they carried sincerity.

Shane felt pleased, as he followed behind Hette Yada, arriving at the depths of the small forest.

Here, a sudden snowy terrain appeared.

In the snowfield, a chilling aura pervaded, making even Shane, who was protected by Outer Destiny, shiver and feel a bit cold.

Almost instinctively, Shane expanded his Outer Destiny's perception ability outward.

Upon doing so, Shane immediately noticed an anomaly.

"The space here has already started showing signs of freezing..."

Shane's eyes flickered.

"You've seen it, right? This is the effect of the Ice Luo Qianliu."

Chafne, unfazed, even made a jest at Shane.

Shane ignored her, silently feeling the situation, drawing some conclusions.

"Here, Instant Movement can't be used, magic power can't be released, and even the magic power in the atmosphere doesn't flow. In such conditions, no matter how strong a mage is, they probably can't cast any spell, right?"

The ability to freeze time and space is indeed remarkable.

"No wonder Sera sent Hette Yada to receive the angel envoy of the Primordial Demon."

With such abilities, Gold, who was sealed, could never escape.

Hette Yada even transferred him ten thousand meters underground, probably utilizing the spatial interference effect of the Ice Luo Qianliu, right?

"Although my Unique Skills are like cheats, this Unique Skill... alright, I'm a bit envious."

Shane tried to suppress the envy in his eyes.

His Unique Skills were powerful, and he had two of them, all belonging to cheat-level abilities.

Unfortunately, both Heaven's Grace and Fate are supportive growth-type Unique Skills, and don't enhance Shane's combat power directly.

As Shane grew stronger and mastered various skills, merging them into the Seven Great Destiny Skills, his levels edged close to their limit, rendering these skills less useful.

Like now, Shane hadn't learnt a new skill in a long time, the Seven Great Destiny Skills couldn't fuse further, and only during level ups, where growth values in all aspects increased to the maximum, they played a minor role.

However, once Shane reaches the Limit Level, even that role will be lost.

In this situation, Shane naturally wished his Unique Skills could wield great power, like the Ice Luo Qianliu.

"Well, a snake trying to swallow an elephant out of greed, I should be content."

Shane collected his scattered thoughts.

"We're here."

In front, Hette Yada also stopped, slowly extending her hand.

"Buzz!"

In the snow-covered land filled with chills, the whole world began trembling suddenly.

"Rumble..."

The ground shook frequently, causing snowflakes to dance.

The fierce winds made the frozen space even more chaotic.

Shortly thereafter, ice pillars began to rise from the ground.

In the snowy land, a rather magnificent scene gradually took shape.
