Originally, the open space of the backyard of this small castle was covered with grass, but because Selena practiced swordsmanship here every day, the constant friction under her feet made it impossible to grow in the place, and it turned into a smooth land that would reflect slightly in the sun.

It took me practice from morning until noon, and when I knew the sun was coming, Selena stopped.

The linen exercise clothes on my body had been soaked in sweat, and they were completely attached to my body, making the explosive figure appear undoubtedly.

"Miss, it's almost time for lunch." Butler Dobin walked out of the back door and said.

"I understand." Selena agreed, handed the heavy sword used for practice to Duobin, and went back upstairs to take a shower.

When taking a shower, I took out a small bottle from the space ring, poured out a little of the things inside on my hands, and applied them to my hair.

Then rub it quickly, and in a short while, fine foam covered the hands and hair.

Shampoo!

This is a thing that Dikao made for her a few years ago.

The recipe is not difficult. It is made with ginger and black sesame and some vinegar, and then extract the essence from the roses by magic, add it and mix it.

However, this thing is very expensive, because Dikao doesn't know much about this, so let's not talk about anything else. Such a small bottle of roses only costs thousands of them.

Fortunately, Hesler has always produced roses. Every year when the roses bloom, Selena always prepares a lot of them to send to Dikao to make shampoo.

The hair washed out will have a rose-like scent. Now the whole Hessler, only she and Nitia, are washing their hair with this thing.

...

After taking a shower, Selena changed into clothes and came to the restaurant. She was too lazy to say hello to her family, and sat down to start eating.

Since last time, every time she is here, her family has been quiet and makes her feel much better.

Although this feeling is more or less depressing for Burton and others, they also know that everything in this family is obtained by Selena now, and they are not qualified to talk too much.

After quietly finishing the meal, Selena returned to the room and prepared to take a break.

A pure black bird suddenly flew in through the window, and Selena stretched out her hand and landed on her arm.

This is a bird raised by Nitia. When you have something to look for her, you will ask the bird to come and notify her.

After picking up the jar on the table and feeding the birds some food, Selena put on her coat and went out.

After avoiding everyone along the way, I came to the basement and saw that Nitia was already sitting at the table reading.

"What's wrong?" Selena asked, sitting opposite her.

"Just got an interesting news," Nitia closed the book with a "slap", "The border city of the Dylanta Empire, the holy city, was occupied by Dikao."

"Sure?"

"It's very certain!" Netiya nodded, "I guess the palace and the church have also received the news."

"How could he suddenly attack the Dylanta Empire at this time?" Selena was a little confused.

"From my analysis..." Nitia paused, "It should be an accident that he could not have expected."

"You mean, he wasn't taking the initiative?" Selena asked.

"Well," Netiya nodded, "He is different from other demons. He has a more cautious personality. Suddenly, he takes the initiative to occupy a city and does not suit his behavior."

"Then what do you think Abigail will do next?"

"He will definitely observe the situation first, just like other countries." Nitia said, "and he will definitely not provoke the Demon King in the near future."

"He's scared?" Selena asked.

"That's right," said Nitia, "The devil suddenly captured a human city, which made him unable to help but think about what means he did. After all, it is impossible for the demons to enter the human territory to start killing."

"So he should be observing for a while?"

"According to Abigail's character..." Nitia thought for a while, "I think it's very likely that he will send you to the Holy City to observe the situation or something."

"If this is the case, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Impossible, I'm a hostage!" Niteya shook her head, "Abigail can allow me to go home occasionally, but she won't allow me to go anywhere else."

"Okay..." Selena shrugged, "What a pity!"

………………………………………

Recently, Dikao has been waiting for follow-up actions from Dilanta and other countries, so he feels a little idle at home every day.

In this era without the Internet or games, how to pass the time is really a relatively profound knowledge.

Dikao was thinking about this issue while practicing his own four-way Tai Chi beside the magma river.

"My King, what are you doing?" Grey walked over with curiosity and asked, "It seems a little stupid."

"What do you know?" Dikao looked mysterious, "I am extremely powerful and terrifying martial arts, and the ultimate move of the five lightning whips is enough to destroy the world..."

"But my king, aren't you a flame attribute?" Grey asked, "When will the thunder attribute be there?"

"Uh..." Dikao looked dark in an instant, "Sure enough, even his understanding of memes is different, and communication is a problem."

"Your king hasn't invented new food for a long time. If you have time, if you have time, why not make new food!"

Grey stared at Dikao with his ruby-like pupils, with a strong sense of expectation in his eyes.

“New food…”

Dikao reached out and stroked her head, lowered his head and began to think.

"This thing also needs inspiration..." Dikao thought for a while, "If you want to know today... it's better to make you a milk tea, anyway, there are black tea and chocolate milk here."

"Milk tea?" Grey asked with his big eyes raised.

"Um!"

…………

Two hours later, Grey brought other succubus maids to the kitchen and brought Acelia too.

Everyone took a cup of milk tea from Dikao, and after taking a sip, they all said it was very delicious.

"Alisa, I'll write this recipe for you after I finish it. You can try to make it." Dikao said, "You can also get it to the Castlevania in the future."

"My King, why do you still have to sell what you made for us?" Grey was a little confused.

"Castle of Demon is my territory now, and many merchants will definitely not dare to come here in the future." Dikao said, "so we must develop new products to attract merchants."

“Attract businessmen?”

"Yes, things like economy can only become prosperous if they are circulated." Dikao stroked her head and smiled, "In the future, the Castlevania will be a big commodity export city."

This is also the solution that Dikao has come up with these days.

After all, a city controlled by a demon will definitely make humans feel scared, so if you want to attract more people, you must first attract businessmen.

As long as the merchants are willing to come here, the economy will be alive and the city will continue to develop.

Then the next step is to find ways to make more products, such as milk tea, lollipops, ice cream, etc.

Perfume can be made, but I didn’t make it before because the cost is too high. I can’t make a few bottles of roses sent by Selena every year.

But now there is Enjieli. If you can grow roses on a large scale, maybe perfume can also become one of the products.

In addition, you can open a theater, and you can train a large number of artists to form a symphony orchestra.

In the future, the Castlevania can be built into the world's number one diversified city, and all races can settle here...

However, all of these are just thinking about them at the moment, and they can only be done step by step, and they are not in a hurry.

...

In the blink of an eye, the weather has begun to enter October. If Diranta has any movement, it should be almost as soon as possible.

During this period, Dikao also received a letter from Nom and had arrived at the capital of Sunshine City. Although he encountered some minor troubles, it was not in trouble and had been properly resolved.

Now night bar has become the highest entertainment venue in the capital. He has made friends with many noble officials and successfully entered the upper class of the capital.

Dikao felt very pleased that having capable subordinates can really save yourself a lot of trouble.

………………………………………

As the weather enters October, you can feel a hint of coolness in the morning and evening.

Nathan stood on the balcony on the second floor of the city hall, looking at the city in dusk, and asked the servant to bring him a cloak to put on his body.

In just one month, Castlevania has undergone great changes.

Nowadays, pedestrians and carriages will walk on the right, and their efficiency and speed have improved a lot compared to before.

All the underground gangs were uprooted and all were caught in Mihal, and no one could come out alive.

The guards conducted a lot of training every day, but due to the improvement of their food level, none of them was used to train, but instead they had a spirit that they did not have before.

Every morning, necromancers command countless skeleton soldiers to sweep the streets with brooms.

It took the people only a month to go from being afraid at the beginning to being calm, then to being curious, and finally to turning a blind eye now.

In this city, demons and humans seem to have found a balance point for coexistence.

However, the demons and humans have not yet begun formal communication.

Even the Necromancer who walked through the street with a staff of skulls inlaid, the people kept giving in and gave way, without any intention of communicating.

Now, except for the depressing atmosphere in this city, there is no obvious difference from other cities.
