Dark Moon City/Culture

## Night Life

The Dark Moon Estate was dangerous. It had poor resources; there were also rampant thieves; and it even had horrifying creatures in the estate, the estate couldn’t grow and develop at all. Grim was depressed and died in such adversity, leaving two daughters in his late years, which were Princess Shea and little princess Alice.

Although nightlife in the Demon Realm was not lively, there were many people who liked to go out at night. At places such as lively bars and on the streets, there were imps selling various strange items, and dark goblins and lichs setting up night stalls… Especially the succubus on the roadside seducing people, making people lose control. Of course, behind the attractiveness may be a terrifying trap. Whether it was a romantic encounter or a nightmare, depended on whether that person had corresponding strength.

Dark Moon City was very large. The distribution of these people was very scattered. Some areas were empty and spooky; other areas were very lively. This made Chen Rui think of the concept of establishing a night market.

He saw a few people, waving knives in their hands, surrounding two girls. They were intimidating the girls loudly. Both of the girls were dark elves with veils on their faces. They seemed to be sisters who were about sixteen or seventeen years old. The taller older sister was protecting her younger sister. They looked very frightened. There was an old dark elf lying on the ground not far away who had passed out.

This kind of thing happened almost every day in Dark Moon Estate. The guys waving the knives seemed to have a background. There were initially some demons nearby, but when they saw this situation, they all hid away lest they invited trouble.

### Anecdote

Chen Rui frowned, walked toward the voice and saw a dead end. Several satyr and liches were blocking a dark elf woman. The woman was a little attractive. She was holding a baby in her arms. She was forced to the corner with her robe torn to pieces. She could only shiver with her back facing those men. She covered the baby in her arms and kept begging for mercy, but it didn’t move those guys at all.

Robbery and rape weren’t new in the Demon Realm. Besides, women weren’t an easy target in the Demon Realm. However, it wasn’t impossible for men to be robbed and raped. If it was a few guys surrounding a succubus, then rape would turn into seduction. As compared to succubus, the dark elves were relatively conservative, especially when there was a large disparity in strength.

The minotaur laughed while tearing off the woman’s skirt on her back. He threatened her to submit, otherwise he would kill the baby. A lich was about to touch the woman’s hip, but suddenly, his hand was hurt; it was actually sliced into two. His perverted laugh instantly turned into a painful cry. The other accomplices were taken aback. When they turned around, they saw a cloaked mysterious man standing behind.

Before the few guys could speak, the figure moved slightly and all of them had fallen to the ground. All of them had amputated limbs and broken body parts and their blood covered the entire ground.

## Politics

According to the practice of a three-year term, the financial officer and sheriff should be re-elected at the beginning of the year. However, as Joseph and Alan were both colluding each other at the time. Their position was so unshakable, so Shea deliberately delayed the election and extended their terms. On the surface, it was a compliment toward both of them. Yet, in reality, it was to wait for a more suitable opportunity. Until today, this foreshadowing finally became useful.
