Yale had decided to spy the conversation with the lizardman chief because he wanted to ensure that the lizardmen wouldn't try to betray Yale's group after having returned to the tribe.

However, the benefit he obtained from that was the recovery of some memories, so the travel to the lizardman village was already worthy.

Yale still had some doubts about the original Demon Lord, for example about the reason why Wyba wasn't called Demon Lord by the wolves despite having met the conditions even better than Yale because she was a true divine beast and possessed the same bloodlines as Yale.

However, since there was a limit to the memories he had unlocked, and it didn't seem that the chief of the lizardmen tribe would continue speaking about the topic, Yale could only forget about it for the moment.

"Quick, let's prepare a banquet for them. Ensure that they are happy and that no one offends them. Offending them is a death sentence, without exceptions."

The chief didn't dare to bet if his guess about the identity of Yale was correct or not because the risks were too high, and in his long life, he had learned that it was better to play safe.

"Understood."

The two lizardmen spoke at the same time and left to inform the others to prepare a banquet and tell Yale's group that everything was alright.

Yale continued monitoring the chief in case he did something strange, but he only went to meet other higher-ups of the tribe to tell them about the situation.

"It is good that he knows how to act properly."

Although the lizardman chief was at the Sage Rank, he was merely a 1-star Sage, and he didn't have any chance to win against Aiwai, Swordmad and Sebe combined.

At that moment, the two lizardmen that had reported the situation to the chief returned and led Yale's group to a place where all the higher-ups of the tribe were waiting for them.

The chief had worked quickly and prepared to welcome Yale's group with all the honors.

It was already afternoon when Yale's group reached the lizardmen tribe, but there was still some time until dinner, so the lizardmen started to explain Yale's group about their area and their customs.

Based on their words, the place where the lizardmen tribe was situated was called the Lizardmen Forest and were one of the last remnants of the territory controlled by lizardmen, making that they were extremely protective to it. In fact, it wasn't that they like a lot that forest, but that they didn't have anything better.

Yale didn't mind about such things because he managed to obtain access to the library of the tribe that although wasn't very big contained enough basic knowledge to survive in the western continent without revealing that they come from another continent.

Of course, Liye appeared in some books as a legend for his acts more than thirty thousand years ago, and Yale couldn't avoid feeling a bit ashamed when reading books that spoke of himself like if he was a legend.

Yale didn't have all the memories of Liye, but in the end, both had the same soul, and there wasn't anything wrong for Yale treating things regarding Liye as something related to himself.

Everyone in the lizardman tribe seemed quite amiable even though it was clear that there were some who didn't like treating outsiders so well, but no one dared to disobey the chief because the chief had enough power to kill easily anyone who dared to object.

"Shirk, have you heard of the Lizardman God? It is an old religion of our tribe that comes from the time when the lizardmen lived in another world. That religion says that the Lizardman God was the one who created our bloodline and can be considered the ancestor of all the lizardmen, but no one is sure is it existed or not. Anyway, there is a cult worshiping the Lizardman God in the tribe, and they are quite strict with everything regarding the Lizardman God, so even if you don't believe in the Lizardman God, put an act in front of them."

The lizardman with the scar was giving some advice to Shirk because he hoped that Shirk would remain in the tribe. However, Shirk didn't seem interested in that.

The Lizardman God Cult was just a minority in the tribe, but the leader of the cult was the wife of the chief, so they had some authority.

Usually, the Lizardman God Cult despised anyone who wasn't a Lizardman, and they wanted to recover the greatness of Lizardmen of ancient times even if that led to a war.

The lizardmen of the past that attacked the eastern continent were because they believed in the Lizardman God and that they were a superior species chosen by their God, but they ended dying because of that arrogance.

Years later, that way of thought obtained strength again after feeling the suppression of the other species, but the acts of the Lizardman God Cult provoked the curse to the lizardmen and even those who already had a name lost it, having forbidden to use it again. Of course, that was unless they obtained their name back from someone of another species, which was akin to submission.

Thus, there weren't a lot of lizardmen who liked the Lizardman God Cult as it had only brought problems to the lizardmen since ancient times.

However, the wife of the chief and some other higher-ups were part of the Lizardman God Cult, and they were quite strong, so the lizardmen tolerated them and put the facade that they still believed in the Lizardman God.

Yale also learned about the Lizardman God Cult from the books, but he decided to ignore them as almost all the lizardmen in the tribe did. Moreover, Yale had also created a Lizardman bloodline, and Shirk was the living proof of that, so even if there were a Lizardman God, Yale would still be at the same level.

While some were speaking, and Yale was reading books, the time passed quickly, and the banquet for dinner was ready.

"This is one of the specialties of our tribe, Hell Hotpot. I hope that you like it."

There wasn't any sea monster to prepare a dish since the lizardmen couldn't catch them so easily, so they prepared one of their specialties.

The main dish seemed to be a reddish soup, and after tasting it a bit, Yale understood why it had that name because the Hell Hotpot was extremely spicy.

Of course, Yale didn't mind about it, but Wyba, who had changed to her half-beast form started to turn red after tasting it.

"I am dying..."

Wyba felt that she couldn't breathe, and Yale hurried to give her some water and applied Water Healing on her.

"Are you alright?"

Yale was worried after seeing Wyba suffer so much due to the spicy food.

"I am alright, but this is poisonous!"

Wyba was so angry at that moment that she wanted to eat some lizardmen in exchange and get rid of the aftertaste of the Hell Hotpot.

The face of the lizardmen chief changed when he saw the situation because he never expected that their food would be able to offend the little sister of the Demon Lord.

"Goddess, are you alright? Do you want us to kill the chef and serve it to you to eat in exchange?"

The wolf leader looked to the lizardmen with anger while he spoke with Wyba.

"Go and bring the chef here, he shall pay with his life for trying to poison our guests."

The chief was scared to death because he knew that legends also said the ancient Demon Lord asked to call Goddess any female divine beast with a potential comparable to the Demon Lord even though he didn't know the reason for such name.

The chief thought that a divine beast with the name Demon Lord was already a lot, but the fact that his sister had another nickname equally impressive was a deadly blow to the chief because they had already offended her thoroughly with that food.

"Why do I have so much bad luck..."

The lizardman chief couldn't help but sigh when thinking that.

"No need to kill anyone for this, just prepare something sweet for my little sister and it will be enough."

Yale felt that it would be too crazy to kill the chef just because Wyba didn't like spicy food, and he grabbed Wyba's bowl while asking for another food to her.

"The food is the same for everyone, so the chef is innocent, but there is really poison in Wyba's bowl that isn't part of the meal. I wonder who dared to do that."

Yale only thought about it to avoid alerting the culprit.

Wyba wasn't affected by the poison thanks to her bloodlines, she only hated it because it was spicy, but there was really poison there, so Yale was ready to investigate the matter.

Of course, when Wyba said that it was poisonous was because she detected the poison, but she didn't notice that the poison didn't do anything to her and that what she felt was just the spiciness of the food.

While picking Wyba's bowl, Yale had used his Divine Eyes to appraise it, and he discovered a bit about the poison.

"A poison used by the Lizardman God Cult to punish heresy in ancient times. It seems that the Lizardman God Cult needs to disappear from this world."
