57. You are refining!
The seemingly flawless “retreat plan” had just been finalized, and with Lin Ke’s group leaving, all that was left for us was to wait for tomorrow night to arrive and then quietly leave the Rodma Empire, which had become fraught with danger for us.
The Rosia subordinates, who still needed to continue their pretense of running the shop tomorrow, had already been seen off by Sister Rasputin; Kephiel also expressed the need to rest well because she was shouldering the “heaviest task” tomorrow. I certainly didn’t want to disturb her now. As the light gradually dimmed, only Letty and I remained on the first floor of the hotel, pretending to “clean up” and not having left, insisting on staying with me.
Naturally, this scene left Letty to her own wild thoughts.
“Big Brother, aren’t you going to rest?!”
“Ah… Yeah, there’s something else I need to take care of.”
“If that’s the case, then the Empress now requisitions your services!”
Lette didn’t pay any attention to my words; she saw her opportunity and pointed directly at me, “Come with me to my room now, Empress!”
Lette wants to have Euclid sleep with her!
I’m sorry, Lette, but even if Klein approved, I can’t fulfill your request today.
“Empress Lette, I’ll have fun with you another time. Also, please don’t worry, I’ll definitely ensure your safe passage out of the Rodma Empire.”
Unfortunately, a crucial aspect of my “evacuation plan” hasn’t been completed for today.
“Hmph! Of course I believe you’ll escort me out; oh? aaah… Ahem…”
I don’t know where Lette was implying, as she momentarily blushed, stuttering at the thought, but then, a surge of electricity emanating from the sword next to her engulfed her, casting an intense white light into the air!
As the blinding light faded, I brought my attention back to find that the now was no longer the little Rousia girl I knew, but the more irascible “fiery big sister” from Rousia.
Before executing “the plan” entirely, I needed to gain the agreement of the risky fairy, Zeus, who had been sulking since the beginning. Should she disrupt the plan, it would not remain my control.
As for how Zeus appeared… Despite feeling uneasy with her using Lette’s body so carelessly, with time pressed, there wasn’t time to address the issue.
“Oh? I caught you in heavy industry, little midgetcon!”
Zeus, with her incredibly fiery figure, immediately taunted me, her demeanor more than “dangerous”; it verged on something explicit, making me recall their intense confrontation that night.
Refusing to repeat the previous experience, I swiftly averted my gaze. “Very well, now finish getting dressed!”
“Humph~”
Zeus chuckled coldly, beginning to button her clothes – an oversized coat for Lette, a black shirt for her. Even as the movements left room for interpretation, her hostility towards me remained as ever.
“So, where’s the evidence you’d show me? Didn’t Nelle fail to find it?”
Unlike the rest, the hot-tempered and imper
After all, this fairy, even if she still doesn’t know how to handle things, can be considered one of Kephier’s treasures. To put it another way, even if it weren’t for Jousi’s sake, I still have to escort Letty back safely.
“I never stopped you from seeking revenge from the very beginning, but using Letty’s body to charge into someone else’s lair all alone? Anyone with a bit of common sense wouldn’t do something like that, right? Especially not a powerful fairy, am I’m wrong?”
“You… you have no brains, Blet!”
Although she immediately shot back at me, from the “frustrated” expression on Jousi’s face that I was seeing for the first time, it was clear that my words had struck a chord.
In the next moment, her left hand transformed into a claw, and with a “crack,” she crushed the crystal ball, then coldly looked at me: “Human, you…”
【Jousi is questioning Oujilide’s abilities!】
“Don’t worry, I will safely get you all out.”
“But I…”
“Is it enough that I already know what you want to say?”
Everything she was thinking was guessed correctly by me, and Jousi finally settled down.
“Tch, cheating with Ikusis’s prophecy…”
In reality, it wasn’t like that at all; that foolish fairy’s prophecy wasn’t strong enough to be so predictable. After all, if it weren’t for the script, I definitely wouldn’t have discovered… that issue during tonight’s discussion about the retreat plan.
“I’ll trust you this once, human.”
Jousi fidgeted for a moment, then glared at me, “But don’t get too cocky! This empress is not a fool! Blet!”
After throwing that remark, to prevent me from retorting, Jousi immediately returned to her original form in a flash of lightning, and the Letty that appeared before me had no memory of what had just happened when her body was occupied. Instead, she looked around in confusion.
Then…
“Big brother! What about my answer? Are you going to keep me company or not?”
Letty puffed out her cheeks, and if I refused at this moment, I would probably be staring down the barrel of a gun.
“Alright, alright!”
How could you still remember that you wanted me to keep you company for the night, Letty! Just to be clear, it’s really just a simple “accompaniment”!
I was pulled away by Letty, and as I followed behind her, I secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Nilu, no matter what method you use, this time I won’t let Kephier’s “main storyline,” “legendary treasures,” and all that belongs to Kephier’s future be obstructed or destroyed by you.
