Location- Dark Realm, Blood Dome OF Darkness, Dual Gate Dungeon Vicinity

Field Marshal Heatsend wasn't the only one who saw that Ada was deliberately trying to provoke her. The devils had also witnessed that the way Ada addressed had got bolder and wilder than before. Using tricks to get what they want was not new to them and they spotted Ada's trick miles away. 

"Little girl, don't try to play tricks with us. Just tell us what will it take for you to cancel the summoning?" the fourth devil with brown furry skin, fox-like eyes, paws for hands and feet, and a feline tail spoke seeing through the trick Ada was playing.

The furry devil understood that intimidating Ada would only be a waste of time and would not work. Instead, their best option here was to negotiate and reach an agreement with Ada as fast as possible because the longer they were here the more chances for the scary human to take them down one by one. 

"Kill her," Ada replied while grudgingly staring at Field Marshal Heatsend. Making it clear to the devil that she wanted the Field Marshal dead. 

"Apart from that," the furry devil's frown deepened and he asked Ada to ask something else. He could see the fire of revenge burning in Ada's eyes and knew it would be very difficult for them to convince Ada to cancel the summon and not force them to fight a death match with the scary card apprentice.

"..." The Field Marshal looked at the conversation between Ada and the three devils in interest. And had no plans to interrupt them. Her priority was to protect the dual gate dungeon. As long as these devils did not plan to attack it she did not plan to take the initiative to attack them. 

Apart from prioritizing the task at her hand, there was another reason why the Field Marshal was not taking the initiative to attack the remaining three devils and choose to stand seeing that the devils did not plan to attack or bother her. 

Because Field Marshal knew if the three devils came at her together desperately she could not guarantee a clean victory and there was a chance of her being slain. Therefore the Field Marshal had chosen to not fight the three devils unless they took the initiative to harm her or the dual gate dungeon. 

Avoiding frontal confrontation didn't mean that the Field Marshal would not try to assassinate another one of the devils. While the devils were negotiating with Ada to cancel the summoning and free them, the field Marshal used her eyes to track the devil core of the Spiked humanoid frog devil, however, she could not find it no matter how much she focused. 

The spiked humanoid frog devil was not the exception, the Field Marshal could not find the devil core of both the bug-eyed devil and the furry devil. Unable to trace the devil core of the three devils, the Field Marshal scowled. 

But the Field Marshal did not give up, she continued to try and locate their devil core because the devil core could not just have vanished in the air, without the devil core the devils would be powerless like Lady Devil Erving. 

Therefore the Field Marshal continued to search for the devil cores of the three devils in their bodies. And she finally caught a glimpse of the spiked humanoid frog devil's devil core. 

However, it immediately vanished in its body. That was when the Field Marshal realized the reason she was not able to find the devil cores of the three devils was that the devils continuously kept changing the location of the devil core in their bodies every few seconds. 

Having witnessed the Field Marshal rip the devil core of Lady Devil Erving from her chest without even leaving behind a trace the other devils would be stupid not to protect their devil cores in the presence of the Field Marshal. 

The Field Marshal could track their devil core, this was the one of reasons why the devils were hesitant to fight the Field Marshal. All three of the devils were proud of their physical bodies' durability and recovery ability, in front of someone who could directly target their weakness, their proud physical body was useless. When the advantages they were proud of were being proven useless in front of the enemy they felt no shame in retreating. 

"Your Highness, if you cannot kill her. Then destroy the dungeon gate behind her. Then I will cancel the summoning," Ada proposed to the furry devil. 

Listening to Ada no longer insist on killing the Field Marshal and demand something else from them, the three devils were finally enthusiastic about the chance of all of them leaving here alive. However, A sudden intimidating killing aura emitted by the Field Marshal covered them pouring water on their enthusiasm.

Reacting to the killing aura of the Field Marshal, the three devils took their battle stance prepared to defend themselves in case the Field Marshal attacked them. 

However, contrary to their expectations the Field Marshal did not attack them but instead warned them saying, "If you want to harm the dungeon gate you will have to go through me." 

Listening to the Field Marshal's words the three devils glared at Ada, understanding that even though Ada did not demand to kill the scary human this time her new demand would still indirectly force them into a deathmatch with the scary card apprentice. 

"Little girl, how dare you play with us?" the Bug-eyed devil asked Ada in rage. 

"Your Highness, lowly one like would not dare do such a thing. My mission is to destroy the dungeon gate protected by that old hag with saggy tits. If I do not come through on that, I will be killed by my master for having failed the mission. That is why I asked such a demand, your highness. Please understand I meant no harm to you with this."
