Chapter 372: Chapter 315: Leaving the Cabin
“Everyone be very quiet… don’t wake her up…”
“We must enter the Void Realm after she falls asleep, without letting her notice any traces or signs… She must continue the Armament Ceremony not knowing anything, otherwise the Witch will discover us.”
“Don’t forget to buy a return ticket before deceiving the world.”
“Bronze Dragon… This is our chance! We can finally escape this prison! According to the Fate Q&A, we are scheduled to leave on May 2nd!”
“It’s time to make a decision, Diya.”
“Diya, now is not the time to be merciful.”
“After the Bronze Dragon takes us away, she will be a burden to us… Yes, she is the purest, most beautiful, and kindest girl in the world, but she is also our enemy.”
“She is the Witch’s designated sacrifice, unformed despair, suffocating air… If she doesn’t die, we will still be trapped in the web the Witch weaves, unable to escape the bonds of fate no matter how far we run. She is the mask over our faces.”
“Diya, only you are qualified to make this decision. You can’t rely on us for this one thing.”
“Because you and she were the original twins, we are just the sisters you created.”
“It can only be you, it must be you.”
“Kill Liss, Diya.”
Diya opened her eyes and blankly stared at the ceiling.
“Having a nightmare?” Ash asked, “This is the first time I’ve seen someone cry in their sleep.”
“With our status, whatever we do could be considered a rare experience,” Sonia propped her chin, “like digging out a boyfriend’s eyeballs for the first time…”
“I only have two eyeballs, after all!”
“Then pulling out your boyfriend’s tongue has to be an utterly new and thrilling experience…”
“I definitely think there has been a mistake with the cabin,” Ash said confidently, “How could the person I care about most not be the lover willing to join me on an adventure in Amnesia Cabin? This is the cabin sowing discord, don’t be fooled!”
“I don’t care who your most valued person is,” Sonia rolled her eyes, “and watch your words. Who said I’m your lover? It’s all just your assumptions, taking advantage of my amnesia, hmph.”
“Since I’m not the person you care about the most, then naturally I’m not your lover either. Let’s go our separate ways after we leave the cabin; I’m allergic to men who are popular with women.”
Ash muttered, “Your most loved person isn’t me either…”
“That’s because there’s no restriction on gender, so naturally, I love myself the most!” Sonia immediately countered, “If it were only about the most loved male, then I definitely–”
“Definitely what?”
“I’m not telling you,” Sonia turned away, “We’re not even close, so let’s not talk so much.”
“Well said!”
The ever-watching Observer clapped his hands, “Since everyone’s awake, please leave the cabin as soon as possible. After all, this isn’t really a place suited for chatting, and…”
Glancing sideways at the Sword Maiden and the Witch, he voiced the subtext he hid under his tongue, “And we also have a single woman here who can’t stand seeing others in love. If you keep flirting, you might just get killed.”
The reason Ash and the others had stayed in the cabin even after finishing the question was to wait for Diya to wake up. Based on the information revealed in the question, they knew Diya was likely the lover’s substitute for Denzel, who was incurably lovesick with a terroristic twist.
If they took the unconscious Diya outside, and Denzel confirmed his suspicions, he would probably snatch Diya immediately and lock her in the basement to apply various colors on her.
Two people carrying an unconscious person and fighting the ruthless and merciless Denzel would be at a huge disadvantage, so they preferred to wait for Diya to wake up, even if she would only run away, as it would reduce the difficulty of the fight.
Just as Diya had dried her sleep-tears, Sonia pulled her aside to whisper. Ash voluntarily walked up to Denzel, and Denzel also stood up to meet his gaze–Ash then noticed that Denzel was quite a bit taller than himself, standing straight up, which even made Ash feel like he was the younger brother.
It was also because of the height that when Denzel first entered the cabin, everyone subconsciously thought she was male. After all, hidden under the loose Spider Web robe, the tall Denzel resembled a serial killer who had strayed into the cabin.
“Interested in having a secret meeting in the cabin with me?” Ash smiled, “Just the two of us.”
“I don’t dislike you,” Denzel bent down slightly, whispering in Ash’s ear, “but I still really want to know what kind of person has captured my heart.”
As she spoke, Denzel’s appearance began to change, the Spider Web robe silently tightened, transforming into a tight, see-through mesh garment, her crow-feather colored hair pulled back into a long ponytail, shorts that barely covered her buttocks tightened around her muscular thighs, and her hands were wearing black and gold chain gloves.
If Denzel, the Peeping Secret, was an untouchable Holy Daughter, she now resembled a Ghostly Walker adept at infiltrating combat zones.
“What is this?”
“Spider Tower’s fourth military class, Assassination Expert.”
[Spider Tower*Assassination Expert: Close combat attacks deal +30% damage to the soul. 3 layers of armor, humanoid creature, inherently equipped with special miracles “Instant Death” and “Concealment.” Each unit consumes 7 points of Soul Power.]
[Instant Death: All things have weaknesses, Assassination Experts are good at catching disharmonious notes in the melody of fate, destroying enemies’ fate to completely eradicate them. Attacks have a chance to ignore enemy armor.]
[Concealment: When other Spider Tower soldiers are present, Assassination Experts are never the first attack target, requiring enemies to eliminate other Spider Tower soldiers before noticing the existence of Assassination Experts.]
Although the cabin forbid the use of “Peeping Secret” abilities, Denzel could use other classes, just like Ash’s current “Meteor Warrior” status was still in effect.
Ash narrowed his eyes, knowing Denzel wouldn’t just watch Diya leave.
While he could hold off Denzel alone here, letting Sonia and Diya leave first… But this was clearly the last resort. After all, there was only one Denzel, and the best strategy would certainly be to leave the cabin, restore 100% combat power, then suppress Denzel with their numerical advantage!
Ash turned his head to Sonia and Diya, understanding the next step in their plan.
Of course, after leaving the cabin they could restore 100% combat power and so could Denzel, but surely the three of them together could defeat one Denzel, right!?
“And… my fake little lover, aren’t you being a bit careless?”
Hands quietly wrapped around Ash’s body, one encircling his neck, the other grasping his waist, as Denzel held Ash tightly in her embrace!
The dormant “Meteor Warrior” armor on Ash’s body immediately surfaced, attempting to resist the bad woman’s embrace, but to no avail–Denzel’s hands, in her Assassination Expert gloves, could also ignore armor!
Ash lost the opportunity to resist, with his neck now in Denzel’s hands, and having already experienced the force of this major lover, his neck would certainly not withstand a grip, snapping as easily as a wafer biscuit.
Ash was calm, “You want to use me as a hostage?”
Denzel’s breath lightly touched Ash’s earlobe, “I just want to linger with my little lover a bit more before regaining my memory.”
Upon seeing this, Sonia immediately grasped the hilt of her sword, but Ash stopped her with a glance.
Meanwhile, within the Phantom faction, the Observer also pressed a finger to his lips, holding the Sword Maiden’s buttocks back into the chair with his gaze.
“That’s great, I also want to feel the warmth of a lover a bit more before leaving, as we might not have another chance after departing,” Ash smiled, “Let’s go, we should leave this cabin… where our relationship can begin anew.”
The four of them arrived at the cabin door, Denzel and Ash stood on one side, Sonia and Diya on the other.
Ash grabbed the door handle but suddenly stopped.
