Login with GoogleChapter 107: The Night Before the Monster Tide
This is no ordinary unexpected guest, we must give it a heavy punch!
The moment Loria saw Vita, she immediately raised her right arm, and with a single thought, the knight's great sword would appear in her hand.
But at that moment, Vita quickly pressed her index finger against her lips.
"Shhh..."
The sound was so low that it was almost inaudible.
The female assassin looked around nervously, making sure no one heard what she said. Then, her tense muscles relaxed a little.
But this was just the beginning.
She quickly took out the pre-written notes and forcefully stuffed them into Loria's arms.
No intention of being enemies, huh?
Loria was slightly surprised.
Perhaps because Vita knew the guildmaster was outside, she didn't mean to tie her up.
She pondered silently and opened the notes.
The words written on them didn't quite match Vita's appearance.
Not the crooked, messy kind of writing, you could tell she really wanted the words to be neat and proper, but when put together, it looked a bit mismatched.
It's normal to think about it carefully. Vita joined the Hidden Leader at the age of ten, undergoing training to become an assassin. After all these years, her level of education is probably not even as good as Loria, who only went to a knight training school, so she definitely had less time for calligraphy.
The first sentence on the paper was telling Loria not to be afraid.
[Although I may act strangely, I am really here to help you!]
Vita rambled on, mainly to calm Loria down, asking her not to make a big fuss.
For a while, Loria was speechless.
She locked eyes with Vita.
Those lively eyes shimmered with a strange light, mingled with a sense of anticipation, as if hoping she wouldn't shout.
Oh.
By the way.
Vita had a pen in her right hand, wanting to hand it over, but seeming afraid of being rejected.
Despite being so confident while playing the role of an Oder Travel Newspaper journalist, she now appeared so humble.
Loria's heart suddenly felt touched.
She couldn't help but think of herself, of being controlled by the addiction to sex in the simulation and having to pretend to be weak and be played with by monster girls. She thought about how she finally obtained the cheat-like simulator, only to be threatened by the Hidden Leader and the mayor's gang of old bastards.
Both are wanderers in the world, oh, oh~
Miss Knight is very sad.
Why is it so hard to just lie down and relax?
Damn world, fuck you!
Loria took the pen from Vita's hand, and in that instant, the air in the cramped dressing room seemed to come alive.
She had a new idea.
In summary, it can be described with just one word—
Drag!
But her drag was different from what the guildmaster said.
The guildmaster's way of dragging is to avoid direct contact with Vita, which is not safe, as seen from Vita appearing in the dressing room now.
Her way of dragging is to deceive and ambush, deceive Vita, and ambush the group of people standing behind the mayor!
Loria quickly wrote on the paper, describing herself as a victim.
She was targeted by the mayor and was going to be captured and trained as a slave.
During this time, she resisted desperately but was finally caught. In the underground base, she witnessed the cruelty of those villains. Fortunately, the guildmaster arrived in time and rescued her.
[That's why I know the location of their secret base.]
[Since that day, I have started having nightmares. The pressure that comes from all around is driving me to the brink of collapse. I know the situation is not over yet, those slave traders will continue to target me.]
[Just then, the guildmaster stood up and decided to help me.]
Instead of waiting to be defeated, it's better to take the initiative!
Under the powerful methods, both secret bases and the mayor were all taken down.
Loria expressed her gratitude to Vita for her help during this process.
She also said that the matter was not over yet. Through the guildmaster's sources, she found out that the important people in Claren City were planning to catch the ones who killed the mayor. They wanted to torture them in the most horrifying ways and then sell them to the slums as prostitutes.
[These news put me under great mental pressure every day. If it weren't for the guildmaster comforting me, I might have broken down a long time ago.]
[But I know that the guildmaster can't protect me forever. The power of Lidilia's family cannot influence Claren City.]
[Although the members of the investigation team died at the hands of the tree spirit, I know that this is not the end. Claren City will soon send a new investigation team, and they will investigate more thoroughly.]
[I probably can't escape. If things continue like this, even the guildmaster will be in danger. I never intended to trouble you. I don't want to involve you further.]
Paper notes were passed out one by one.
Vita looked carefully, and with each note she received, her body would shake even more.
Loria's explanation made sense, but she didn't believe it.
Impossible, then what did she see at the hospital that night?
Stories can be made up, but expressions and actions shown without being guarded can't be fake!
"..."
Loria was speechless.
She had crafted the story flawlessly, so why wouldn't Vita believe it?
She couldn't help but want to give Vita's head a couple of punches.
[If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself!]
[How can I try?]
Vita was stunned.
[You can try to see if I am still a virgin, right?]
Vita quickly shook her head.
[Even if you are still a virgin, it doesn't guarantee that Adeline hasn't done anything to you. She doesn't necessarily need to destroy that, and besides, that thing can be repaired with magic.]
"？"
This time, Loria was stunned.
Okay, after all, this is a world full of various mysterious powers.
Vita in front of her can regenerate even if her limbs are severed, which is as normal as magic that can repair layers.
You're really tough.
Loria can only try another method to delay.
[I've been inside for too long, if I don't go out it will raise suspicion, so let's talk at a different time and place.]
With no other choice, Vita could only agree.
They arranged to exchange messages using notes in the hospital to decide on a meeting place.
Then, Vita quickly left.
Loria simply stored the new set of female knight armor she just purchased in her inventory and quickly changed into it using the one-click change outfit function of the inventory.
She was after the defensive capabilities of the equipment, not caring about its appearance. When she discovered that this light armor had a certain magical power reduction effect and wouldn't affect her movements, she immediately bought it.
"When the time comes, we'll be wearing this light armor inside, and have this catgirl bodysuit as the outer layer. Oh, and we need to make a hole in the butt area, otherwise we won't be able to attach the tail in a critical moment."
After leaving the equipment store, Loria truthfully told the guildmaster about what had happened in the changing room earlier.
If she doesn't speak clearly, the guildmaster definitely wouldn't allow her to act alone.
"This way, we can buy ourselves another two days."
The guildmaster approved of Loria's plan, but she suggested that in case anything happens, Loria should secretly follow Vita from behind when they meet.
"No problem!"
What could Loria possibly object to?
She couldn't wish for anything more than to be surrounded by busty, blonde big sister-type bodyguards, just like the guildmaster.
"It's almost done, and we don't have anything else to do today, so let's continue practicing and figure out the details of the monster wave and prepare in advance."
Loria eagerly opened the simulator.
But what happened next completely disrupted her plans.
Sylph's sudden death caused the simulator to take a completely different direction than before.
After killing the wicked criminals who were targeting other adventurers and married women, the fake Sylph sent by the Hidden Leader didn't stop.
On the third day, while attacking a suspicious adventurer, the fake Sylph was noticed by another passing adventurer.
This mistake led to a series of killings in Creek Town.
Within just two days, the female sorcerer, the main shield knight, and the main damage-dealing swordsman of a famous adventurer team in Creek Town went missing one after another.
After the news of their disappearance caused a stir in Creek Town, the owner of a tavern on the west side of town mysteriously died. Loria, in the simulation, deliberately asked a few questions during her investigation and learned that Sylph had been seen at this tavern on the night she was killed. Tonight, "Sylph" has come again.
"Are they planning to kill everyone suspected because they can't find the true culprit who killed Sylph?"
In previous simulations, she either bullied Vita or was bullied by her, with no time to pay attention to this. Never did she expect that the Hidden Leader had already started swinging the scythe in the shadows.
She couldn't ignore it.
Loria could ignore the deaths of those few good wives who had committed many crimes, but she couldn't ignore the deaths of other innocent people.
"We must stop her."
She tightly gripped the big sword in her hand.
After many simulations, she finally came face to face with the leader of the secret organization.
