Chapter 58: What the Hell Are Those Monsters!?
One had to admit that sometimes, determination was determination, and strength was strength.
Hermione fell into self-isolation when she still couldn’t win against Emily on the fifth time.
Emily had definitely gone easy on them when playing with them in the past!
Otherwise, with her advanced chess skills, how could she not be able to beat her!
She used to be able to win a game or two in the past, though it was rather inconsistent.
It could be once a week, or it could be once a month.
Actually, what Hermione had never thought of was that.
In the past, Hermione won when Emily had deliberately let her win as she had to attend to something and needed to leave.
She didn’t win by relying on her abilities at all.
“As expected, Emily is still better than me in this aspect.”
Although Hermione felt a little sore about losing, she was indifferent and didn’t care too much about the outcome of this competition.
If she was Thor, she would definitely have said that she was just unlucky and that she would definitely win in the next round or something.
But when Hermione lost, she would not complain and would simply admit it.
She wouldn’t be like Thor who would stubbornly deny it.
At this moment, she ignored the fact that she had regretted her move five times and simply drew the boundary between herself and Thor.
From a certain point of view, although Hermione was very lazy, she was no less competitive than Thor.
Emily, who was at the side, looked at Hermione who had admitted defeat. She picked up the black tea again, and walked out of the room with her slender legs.
Before she left, she thought of something and said, “You can split the prisoners with Thor.”
Hermione raised her head to look at Emily.
“Didn’t I lose? Why did you give them to Thor and me?”
Hermione was a little confused.
She had clearly lost, so why would she give it to her?
Looking at Hermione’s blank look, Emily smiled.
“Having too many servants is also a burden to me. Just treat it as a punishment that the loser has to deal with.”
Emily didn’t explain too much and just casually mentioned it.
It was indeed troublesome to manage too many servants, but relatively the power to control was stronger in the castle’s dungeon.
However, Emily did not care about this. She was more concerned that if she divided her energy, she would not be able to serve Eddie well.
Thinking of Eddie’s current strength, which was improving day by day, Emily felt gratified and worried.
It was a good thing that her Master was getting stronger, and Eddie was much more talented than any geniuses she had ever seen. With Eddie’s rapid growth, she was worried that he would expose the castle’s secret too early.
Thus, Emily had been checking the castle recently.
Emily felt at ease as apart from eating, Eddie had been staying in his room to train every day.
But what if some lewd beasts and succubi escaped from the dungeon one day?
If they happened to run into Eddie, the consequences would be…
Although Eddie’s strength had already grown to the level of an elementary mage, he had no power to resist against a demonic creature like a succubus.
This was also the reason why Emily had given up on turning these servants into succubi.
Too many of them would only increase her workload.
Though she was the boss, yet she still had to manage her subordinates’ affairs. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that it was unreasonable.
Thus, Emily generously gave them up.
Hermione didn’t stand on ceremony and accepted the offer.
She decided to turn these servants into the witch assassins of the cursed legion.
But Thor, that idiot, was still sleeping.
Hermione waited until Thor woke up to discuss with her.
Although Thor wasn’t very interested in these things, she still had to say what she needed to say.
This was one of the prerequisites for the maids in the castle to be able to get along harmoniously.
When it came to matters in the castle, they needed to respect each other’s opinions.
Emily would also discuss matters with Thor and Hermione, even if it was just about some ordinary intermediate servants.
Emily walked out of the room when she saw that Hermione had agreed.
The mark of the fallen angel that Emily had left in Eddie’s room allowed her to sense that after Eddie had finished breakfast and returned to his room, he hadn’t come out again.
It was not just Eddie’s room door.
Emily had left a mark on every door in the castle.
In this way, she could sense every entrance and exit of every door in the castle.
Therefore, when the Bowel Hunter and the other assassins entered the castle, they had already been discovered.
It was funny that they did not even know that they had been discovered.
They had even taken the initiative to enter the dungeon.
After noticing that these people had entered the dungeon, Emily didn’t care anymore.
Because she knew what would happen if humans with only intermediate abilities entered their dungeon.
Not to mention they were defeated by these two weak creatures, the lewd beasts and the succubi.
If they encountered the dragon servants or the cursed legion. they probably wouldn’t even know who killed them.
As Emily thought about it, she seemed to have missed out something.
For example, there was a princess still locked up in the room of the dungeon.
This princess was now shivering in her own room.
Just after she woke up not long ago, she had opened the door to see if there were still those terrifying monsters outside.
She actually heard it in the corridor…
She actually heard the shameful voices of countless women in the depths of the corridor!
These voices were not unfamiliar to Faith.
When she was in the royal palace, she would occasionally eavesdrop on the voices of the maids who were secretly sneaking around at night.
Of course, she knew what these voices meant.
Although Faith was already a teenager, she was different from the other noble girls.
She didn’t experience matters of love at an early age.
So Faith’s face turned red.
But after that, amidst the seemingly happy cries, she also heard a sound that seemed to be moving back and forth.
Faith’s face turned pale when she heard the sound.
She could even remember the sound in her dreams!
This was clearly the sound of the headless octopus monster that had been chasing her!
The sound affected Faith badly and she quickly ran to her room.
In this strange castle, the only thing she could be sure of was that the owner didn’t want to hurt her.
So the room was definitely very safe.
As long as she could stay in the room, the monsters couldn’t hurt her!
So she didn’t care what happened outside.
Faith quickly opened the door that she had marked earlier.
She closed her own door.
This set of movements was very smooth, as if it had been rehearsed in her mind countless times.
And Faith’s feet were also in the V shape, kneeling on the ground.
Although she looked very miserable, she was at least safe.
But the expression on Faith’s face showed that she was terribly afraid.
She was in despair.
She wanted to know, what was this place?
And what the hell were those monsters!?
