Chapter 975: Chapter 671 Angel Descends by Your Side_2 Chapter 975: Chapter 671 Angel Descends by Your Side_2 Of course, for those soldiers, it was clearly not the same; they gripped their weapons tightly, staring at Duanmu Huai with utmost tension, not daring to relax for a moment. Compared to Duanmu Huai's side, which seemed utterly bored, it was completely the opposite extreme.
“Click.”
After quite a while, the bathroom door finally opened again, and then the blonde girl came out. At this moment, she was dressed in a pure white gown, which was…
Honestly, looking at the blonde girl in front of him made Duanmu Huai involuntarily think of the Princess Hera of the Herman Empire. Hera, dressed in a gown, gave off the feeling of a very traditional princess — petite, delicate, vulnerable, seemingly full of protective desire, yet noble and beautiful.
But this blonde girl was the opposite type of princess from Hera. Although she also had blonde hair, she didn't give off that fragile and delicate feeling, but rather seemed full of valor. She made one feel as if she were a warrior who had been through numerous battles, with that kind of aura–um, that wasn't something Anhe Guleiya could cultivate.
After all, she was just a Psychic who used magic, weak in nature; this kind of aura was only possessed by close combat occupations, and even then, it had to be that of an unstoppable victor.
But no matter what, she looked more like a princess than Anhe Guleiya and the others did.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
The blonde girl gave Duanmu Huai a slight bow.
“If you don't mind, please come to the guest room for a chat.”
“Princess!”
Upon hearing this, the brunette maid next to her couldn't help but intervene.
“This is my command.”
In contrast to the maid who was hopping mad, the blonde girl was very calm. The maid, with no choice, bit her tongue and glared fiercely at Duanmu Huai.
“You'd better not try anything dangerous; otherwise, I will never let you off.”
“Heh, you talk as if you really have that ability.”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised an eyebrow and let out a cold laugh.
“I didn't even fight back just now and you hit me for ages without breaking my defense? Is that it? And you're threatening me?”
“What did you say…!”
“Eirika.”
Just as the brunette maid was about to charge at Duanmu Huai to settle the score, the blonde girl spoke up again, causing the maid to clench her teeth and lower her head.
“Yes… Princess.”
The other guards were ordered by the blonde girl to return to their posts. Although they were also very uneasy about this, they obediently followed her commands. Duanmu Huai also made his way to the guest room, where another maid poured them tea, then quietly withdrew. Soon, the room was left with only Duanmu Huai, Ogis, Gavi, the blonde girl, and her brunette maid.
“Hello, Sir, nice to meet you for the first time.”
The blonde girl shifted her gaze and looked solemnly at Duanmu Huai.
“I am Princess Olaya of the Luminas Kingdom. May I have your name?”
“Grand Judge of the Tribunal Duanmu Huai.”
“Then, I would like to ask, Sir Grand Judge, why did you fall into my bathhouse?”
“Er… If I said it was an accident, would you believe me?”
Duanmu Huai didn't expect his own Teleportation Portal to open right outside someone else's bathroom, did he?
“I see… I understand.”
On the contrary, Olaya nodded her head calmly, seemingly accepting Duanmu Huai's explanation.
“As that is the case, I won't pursue it further.”
At this, the brunette maid wanted to say something more, but she obediently closed her mouth, while Duanmu Huai also felt… well, a bit… that kind of… you know, like it shouldn't end this way, but it did, leaving him speechless.
“However, you must take responsibility for barging into the bathhouse uninvited and for committing an act of indecency towards me.”
“Oh? So what do you want me to do?”
On hearing this, Duanmu Huai shifted his position and looked curiously at Olaya. It wasn't that she was going to say that because he saw her body, he had to make amends, haha, this wasn't some Seven Fairy Maidens' folk tale…
“We are currently under attack by an army of Devils.”
Olaya's expression was very calm.
“They have enlisted Giants, Goblins, and Ice Wolf packs, along with many other dangerous species from the Northern Land, and we need reinforcements. If you could join us and fight alongside us, then I would overlook your disrespectful conduct.”
“Is that all?”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't understand why Olaya had made this decision, at least for now, it hadn't developed into a situation that would give him a headache.
“No problem.”
“Then it's settled.”
Olaya stood up.
“I will have someone prepare guest rooms for you all. We will begin preparations for battle first thing tomorrow morning.”
With that, Olaya and the brunette maid turned and left the guest room, leaving Duanmu Huai sitting there with the two Puppets.
“What are you talking about, Master?”
Gavi looked at him with confusion.
“How come we are suddenly going to fight?”
“I find it quite sudden myself, to be honest. Honestly, I'm not clear on what Olaya is thinking…”
Duanmu Huai spread his hands apart, truthfully wishing for a normal turn of events, just like in the Holy City or Manaria.
