Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: The Cunning Plan of Seraphina

"How is that young man?"

A soldier bowed deeply, giving his respect to Seraphina. He knelt properly, not daring to lift his gaze.

"We have sent a level 25 monster to kill him. I am sure that by now, he is already a corpse," the soldier answered.

Seraphina turned her body around and tapped the soldier's shoulder. She took off her clothes, then sat down on her bed. She was naked now.

She looked at the soldier who was still bowing. Seraphina's eyes were flat and emotionless.

"That is good. You have done your duty well," she said. She climbed onto the bed and lay there, her back leaning against the head of the bed. "Come here. Enjoy your reward."

The soldier lowered his head even more. He still did not dare to look at Seraphina. He even tried to turn his face away. His whole body trembled. He knew what would happen to him after this.

"I am sorry, my lady. I do not think I deserve that reward from you. I think words of thanks are enough," the soldier replied.

"Are you rejecting me?" Seraphina's voice became deep and sounded annoyed.

The soldier quickly shook his head. "No. It is not like that, my lady. I just…"

"Then I will not kill you again," Seraphina said.

Suddenly, the room shook. A very strong aura pressed down on the air around them. The soldier immediately raised his head. He realized that he had made a mistake.

"My lady, I did not…"

Braaasssh!

The soldier's head fell to the floor, followed by his body. Blood splashed everywhere. The smell of iron spread through the room.

Seraphina clicked her tongue in annoyance. "Damn it. You dirtied my blanket. Stupid," she complained.

She got off the bed and immediately pulled the blanket that was stained with blood. After that, she threw it far away. She also kicked the soldier's corpse so it moved away from her bed.

"So rude. You should have been grateful that you could enjoy my beautiful body, but you rejected it. That is truly unforgivable."

Seraphina raised her hand, wanting to destroy the soldier's body. However, suddenly someone knocked on her door.

Knock… knock!

"Lady Seraphina, can we talk? There is something I want to ask," someone shouted from outside.

Seraphina wanted to get angry, but when she realized that it was Shigeru's voice, she immediately smiled. She licked her lips and quickly took her clothes.

"Wait a moment. I will come out soon," Seraphina replied.

She put her clothes back on. After she finished, when she was about to walk, she clicked her tongue in annoyance when she saw the corpse in front of her.

She looked toward the door again. "Can you wait in the training room? I will follow you there."

"Alright. I will go there," Shigeru replied.

Seraphina clicked her tongue again and stepped on the corpse of the soldier she had killed. After that, she walked toward the door and closed it behind her.

A smile suddenly appeared on her face. "I will make you fall in love with me."

Takuya and Lyssia were walking. They were trying to leave the forest. They walked calmly, not in a hurry. Takuya turned his head toward Lyssia.

"Are you strong?"

Lyssia turned to him. "Am I not strong enough for you?"

"No. I mean, how strong are you exactly? I just want to know," Takuya answered.

Lyssia rubbed her chin. She did not know how strong she was because she had not found a proper comparison yet. Moreover, she had just arrived in this world.

"I do not know, but it seems that I am strong enough to fight evenly against a dragon," Lyssia answered.

Takuya immediately turned his head. He was shocked when he heard that answer. Dragons in a fantasy world were very powerful magical beasts. They were considered the peak of power in a fantasy world.

If Lyssia could fight evenly against a dragon, that meant she was extremely strong. Takuya felt relieved because he could rely on Lyssia as a shield for now until he became stronger.

Takuya patted Lyssia's shoulder. "You are quite strong, but still not as strong as me. However, you are worthy enough to be my servant."

Lyssia nodded. "Thank you, Master. I am very happy to hear that."

"Then you must…"

Suddenly, a sound came from the right side. Takuya immediately turned his head and raised one hand, signaling to stay quiet.

There was nothing there. He almost walked again, but the sound was heard once more.

"You are truly useless. Just die already," someone shouted.

Takuya frowned. From that voice, he was sure that the distance between him and that person was quite close. Not more than 100 meters.

"Did you hear it too?" Takuya asked.

Lyssia nodded. "Yes. There are 54 people over there."

Takuya's eyes widened. He was shocked by that answer. Being able to guess the number of people who could not even be seen was an incredible ability.

"What is happening there?"

"You cannot feel it?" Lyssia asked back.

"I am just testing you," Takuya answered. He was lying.

Lyssia focused herself. She stayed silent for a few minutes before nodding in understanding.

"There are 39 women being imprisoned. One of them is being beaten by one man. Three other men are just watching while laughing," Lyssia answered.

After hearing that, Takuya immediately understood the situation. He had often read novels with this kind of setting. There was only one thing that came to his mind, slaves.

That was a common thing in a fantasy world.

"Can you defeat them?"

"Of course."

Takuya nodded. "Good. Then we will save them."

Lyssia nodded.
