Chapter 37: The Female Knight Performed a Special Skill, Drawing Strength From Within!
Is it a good thing or a bad thing to like someone secretly?
Staring at the final outcome just revealed by the simulator, Loria didn't really know what to say.
[On the 33rd day, due to the inability to further investigate the case, Creek Town also fell victim to a wave of monsters. You and Guildmaster Adeline temporarily settled in Claren City.]
…
[On the 46th day, unable to forget the proprietress who had brought you an extraordinary experience, you secretly went to meet the proprietress.]
[You happened to encounter someone intending to assassinate the proprietress, and you promptly intervened to stop the assassin. However, the assassin resorted to poisoning themselves in order to evade capture, leaving no trace behind for you to find.]
[The proprietress expressed her gratitude, and as you reunited, the two of you played all the games you had played before, continuing until the early hours of the next day.]
…
[Day 61: After spending a long time together, you, Guildmaster Adeline, registered your marriage, leaving Miss Plump Sheep with no choice but to withdraw from the competition.]
[Thanks to your extensive experience in extramarital affairs, your relationship with the proprieter's wife, Guildmaster Adeline, never came to light. From then on, you, Guildmaster Adeline, and the proprieter's wife all lived happily and fulfilled lives.]
[The simulation came to an end.]
[Achieved Ending: Rising Star of the Undercover World]
[Congratulations to the player for achieving the "Undercover Enchantress" achievement, gaining additional rewards, and increasing agility by +2.]
[Congratulations to the player for achieving the "Little Cow" achievement, receiving extra rewards, and increasing stamina by +2.]
[Congratulations to the player for achieving the "Master of Disguise" achievement, receiving an extra reward, and gaining +1 intelligence.]
[Congratulations to the player for receiving a C-grade evaluation and obtaining a reward: Energy Vampire.]
"Oh my goodness," she exclaimed.
Loria was completely caught off guard. After experiencing such a thrilling pursuit of evil villains, the ending took an unexpected turn as she ended up betraying the guildmaster.
However, she felt that this time it really couldn't be blamed on her!
It must be because the proprieter's wife is too sexy… no, it's because the proprieter's wife cries too easily.
In the simulator, she couldn't bear to see the proprieter's wife become helpless at such a young age. She also remembered how the proprieter's wife had risked her life to help her before. So, she decided to repay the proprieter's wife in her own way.
That's right, it must be like this, it certainly wasn't because she and the proprieter's wife became addicted to playing!
Actually, if we look at the outcome, everyone is quite happy. This could be considered a somewhat satisfactory ending, right?
And if it wasn't for her spontaneous decision, the proprieter's wife might have met her demise at the hands of the assassin.
Furthermore…
Upon careful consideration, Miss Loria realized that in this simulation, she had clashed with the proprieter's wife first before marrying the guildmaster.
Strictly speaking, it was the guildmaster who outsmarted the proprieter's wife first, and then she outsmarted the proprieter!
As she thought about it, her heart felt a lot lighter.
"Let's first look at the mission rewards."
Causing trouble is not something that needs to be rushed.
Loria had become indifferent to the names of those achievements.
Let her be a seductress; her charm had reached 12 points, far exceeding the average of 5 points for ordinary people. In a certain sense, she could indeed be called a "charm" sorceress.
As for the little cow, there's nothing more to say.
When the proprietor is away, she happily plays games with the proprietor's wife inside the proprietor's house, showing her unwavering loyalty as a cow.
However, Miss Knight was very displeased.
"I've done such a terrible thing, but I only gained 2 points of endurance. Isn't that a bit stingy?"
Finally, her gaze fell upon the reward for completing the mission evaluation.
After experiencing multiple D-grade endings in a row, she finally welcomed a C-grade ending.
[Energy Vampire]: Your body unearths new potential when activated, whether in battle or in touch. You can drain energy from your targets and utilize it for yourself, with the amount being proportional to 15% to 50% of the stamina you expend. The specific value depends on the target's resistance.
Similar to the reward in the previous simulation, this is also a skill that restores one's energy.
But the difference is that Rallying Together magically increases one's energy by 30%, and it has a cooldown time of 12 hours.
On the other hand, Energy Vampire absorbs the opponent's energy without any cooldown time and can be activated at any moment. Although it doesn't make her stronger with each use, it gradually drains her opponents, leaving them weaker and eventually completely depleted of energy.
If both Energy Vampire and Delayed Excitement are used at the same time…
"Does that mean I won't become a human-like enchantress?"
Loria's hand trembled slightly.
Curse it, it's such a tantalizing skill, she coveted it!
With this skill, she would be able to courageously defeat those who posed a threat to her and the safety of Creek Town!
But Loria remained steady, what if the next simulation yielded an even better skill?
Without hesitation, she began her third simulation of the day.
This time, she attempted to arrive in Claren City even earlier, to gather more evidence from the proprieter's wife in Creek Town before it was destroyed.
But unfortunately, these pieces of evidence still couldn't directly accuse the mayor. After a long period of arguing, Creek Town was destroyed, and she tragically lost her life as well.
BAD END.
"It seems that the chance to legally punish them is now impossible."
"Then we can only resort to… using our strongest punch."
Loria quietly stared at the knight painting hanging on the wall.
Removing the proprietor would grant freedom back to the proprieter's wife.
Defeating the leader would severely weaken the slave trafficking organization.
But only by getting rid of the big boss can Creek Town return to true peace.
It was time to make a decision.
If she dragged it out for too long, she worried whether she would still have the same intense impulse as she did now.
Loria chose the reward "Energy Vampire".
Because it was already late, she didn't rush to seek help from Guildmaster Adeline and Miss Plump Sheep.
Firstly, what she needed to do was to confirm whether the mayor was truly the big boss. Although the chances of making a mistake were small, there was still a possibility.
To verify this, she needed Vita's assistance.
"After leaving the mayor's office, Vita will come to interview me. If I take Vita to a different place, the prison director won't be able to catch Vita."
Okay.
And that's how it was done.
One night's sleep later, in the early morning, Loria was awakened by Guildmaster Adeline.
With the guildmaster's help, she changed into a brand new outfit of a lady knight.
The white knee-high socks gently hugged her thighs, the boots reached just below her knees, and she also had a ceremonial sword hanging from her waist.
Loria twirled a few times in front of the mirror.
As her physical abilities became increasingly terrifying, it was also time for her to buy a set of good equipment.
People rely on their attire, just as horses rely on their saddles. Even succubi have their own exclusive clothing. As a female knight, she also needed to properly arm herself.
As for where the money to buy equipment would come from, that was easily solved.
In the mayor's office, Loria humbly received fifty thousand Oder coins from the mayor's hand.
Once it is truly confirmed that you are the mastermind behind the slave trading organization, then this money will be used to give you a funeral!
Before long, Loria walked out of the mayor's office.
Outside, awaiting her were a large group of reporters and excited fans, as enthusiastic as Miss Plump Sheep herself.
