Chapter 974: 671 Chapter 974: 671 Duanmu Huai was using this method of teleportation for the first time.
He, much like a massive bear, was pushing forward within half of the teleportation portal, while Ogis and Gavi followed behind him.
“Really, why can't this be a bit faster!”
“Master is so slow.”
“Do you think I want it this way?”
Hearing the complaints of the two, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but retort.
“It's not my fault, who knew the portal would just be half there!”
That's right, only half was left because when Duanmu Huai dug around, he found nothing–meaning, the other half of the portal was probably somewhere deep underground.
Was this his mess?
Well, had he not insisted on blasting the Lost Ground to smithereens, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.
But wait, if it wasn't Typhonse but another Great Demon, he wouldn't have needed to do this!
So it was all Typhonse's fault!
Yes, he was a Judge, how could he possibly be wrong? It was all the fault of that Heretical Demon, Typhonse!
Alright, the blame was clear, but that did nothing for Duanmu Huai's predicament.
“Oh come on, I'm not going to get stuck in here, am I? That would be hilarious…”
In video games, character stucking issues could call a GM reset, but if he were stuck here, there was no one to call.
Darkness engulfed Duanmu Huai, and he wasn't even sure where he had been teleported to, but at least according to the smooth ground, it seemed to be some kind of man-made structure. But what exactly it was…
“Click.”
“Huh?”
However, at that moment, Duanmu Huai suddenly heard a faint sound beneath him. Looking down, he saw the stone slab underneath slowly cracking. The next moment, before Duanmu Huai could curse, the slab was completely shattered by the heavy Power Armor, and he fell down!
“Bang!!”
The next moment, there he was, sprawled on the ground. Ogis and Gavi weren't faring much better, lying beside Duanmu Huai, covered in dust.
“Uh… what's happening?”
“How should I know…”
While complaining, Duanmu Huai stood up and looked around. His gaze fell on an incredibly clean and beautiful room, adorned with fine tiles, featuring a steaming hot bath and–a blonde girl with her arms crossed in front of her chest, staring at him in astonishment.
I really didn't see this coming.
Looking at the blonde girl shrouded in steam, Duanmu Huai was at a loss for words. Was this some harem anime's opening scene? Why on earth had he ended up in someone else's bathroom? It's not like I'm Nobita!
“Tatatatata!!!”
Just as Duanmu Huai was unsure of what to say, he suddenly heard a flurry of footsteps rushing toward him; then the bathroom door burst open. He then saw a black-haired maid wielding a Sharp Blade rushing in.
“Princess, are you alright!”
The black-haired maid came in shouting, and when she saw Duanmu Huai, her expression changed and she drew her sword.
“Damn Devil, how dare you attack the Princess! Die!”
While speaking, the black-haired maid raised her Longsword in her hand and attacked Duanmu Huai.
“Haah——–!”
“Ah…….”
Duanmu Huai was at a loss for words, merely standing there as the black-haired maid slashed at him repeatedly with her sword–it must be said, the maid's speed was quite fast, with her movements skilled, but still–you can't just slash through Judge's Power Armor, right?
Thinking this, Duanmu Huai stretched out a finger and lightly flicked the Longsword coming towards him.
“Clang—-!”
The next moment, the maid's Longsword flew out of her hand and she grunted, stepping back. However, she still stood in front of the blonde girl–seriously, why block my view? Let me look a while longer!
“Princess, this devil is tough. Please leave immediately…”
“What a hassle…”
Watching this unfold, Duanmu Huai wasn't sure what to do as he contemplated his next move. Just then, the blonde girl stretched out a hand and put it on the black-haired maid's shoulder.
“Stop it, Eirika, he is not a Devil's assassin.”
“But…”
“If he really were the Devil's accomplice, we would have been killed by now, but he hasn't made his move, has he?”
While speaking, the blonde girl looked towards Duanmu Huai.
“Sir, I don't know who you are, but… could you please leave?”
“Alright.”
Duanmu Huai nodded, then made a gesture to Ogis and Gavi, and led them out of the bathroom.
“Whoosh!”
As soon as he exited the bathroom, Duanmu Huai saw a large group of Soldiers surrounding them with weapons, but… of course, Duanmu Huai wasn't the least bit concerned; and frankly, neither were Ogis and Gavi, given the scene before them.
