344:
“Tell that friend of yours with a wandering habit not to go there.”
“It’s very dangerous. She’ll die.”
After Shelley waited for Lliira to react, he extended his hand to her without a word.
“What do you mean?”
A little wary, Lliira now had a shadow of Shelley’s actions, feeling that every one of his actions would have another trap waiting for her.
“This news is my goodwill.”
“I hope you and your allies can benefit from it.”
Nodding with some heaviness, Lliira demurely extended her slender hand and placed it on Shelley’s…
!!!
The moment that hand was placed, Lliira was pulled over by a huge force, and even the divine power on her body did not have time to react.
“Ah, you!”
Pulled into Shelley’s arms, Lliira looked up nervously and saw Shelley’s calm eyes at this time.
!!!
“One last reminder.”
“Be wary of anyone.”
“This may very well concern your life.”
Shelley looked down at Lliira’s eyes, his eyes filled with an indescribable meaning, and said in a low voice, “Remember…”
“It’s anyone.”
With that, Shelley gently let go of the arm around her slender waist, and then he took a gentlemanly step back, bowed slightly to her, and turned to walk out the door.
“…You.”
Lliira bit her lip, and just before Shelley left, she finally called out, “Who are you?”
If you’re going to express your goodwill, you should at least leave your name.
Shelley’s footsteps paused. He turned his head and said with a smile, “My name is Shelley. Now…”
“I’m a mortal.”
With that, Shelley waved his hand and then walked out without looking back.
Click.
Lliira looked at the closed door, and then she felt the residual heat on her body. It took her a long while to let out a powerless breath. She leaned against the wall, recalling what had happened in this short period of time, and muttered to herself, “…You’re a ghost of a mortal.”
How can a mortal have a body full of divine power?
“But Shelley…”
Frowning slightly, she seemed to feel that she had heard this name somewhere.
“Sigh…”
“What bad luck. Why did I encounter this kind of thing?”
What on earth happened to the Material Plane? The great Arcanists are all gone. How can there be such a terrifying character?
“But… when will Sharess come?”
If it weren’t for waiting for that cat who liked to wander, she wouldn’t have been so miserably cornered in her room by Shelley.
Knock, knock.
Just as it was ringing, two crisp knocks suddenly came from the window beside her.
“Meow~”
“Lliira! I’m here~”
Then the window opened automatically, and a pure black cat jumped in, and then it turned into a plump, black-haired woman on the carpet.
Lliira’s expression was a little complex. She sighed and said, “Sharess, you’re late…”
Sharess did not have a guilty expression. She hugged Lliira and then rubbed her cheek against Lliira’s, saying with a grin, “Oh my, don’t mind it.”
“I found something fun on the way and spent a little more time.”
[The Goddess of Cats and Pleasure, Sharess.]
With a helpless sigh, Lliira also lost the mood to lecture.
It’s useless. Sharess is a dazzlingly beautiful goddess. Her appearance can only be matched by Sune. Her voice is very similar to the low-frequency purr of a happy cat. Everyone who listens to her speak will feel as if they have been brushed by the softest fur or velvet.
This was a frivolous and fickle deity, so few people could truly touch and understand her true inner thoughts.
Sharess’s personality was as unique and independent as a cat’s, and she also liked to enjoy herself, and she was always grooming herself to maintain her exquisite appearance.
Sharess loved to tease handsome and beautiful mortals and was always irresistibly drawn to everyone she met. However, whenever her passion was satisfied and had subsided, Sharess would soon feel troubled and bored, and would set off again to seek new stimulation.
This, in Shelley’s eyes, was a slut. The kind who was sweet and honeyed one second, and then pulled up her pants and left the next.
“Why are you in a bad mood?”
Sensing the bad mood of the person in her arms, she asked with concern, “What happened?”
After thinking for a moment, Lliira quickly told Sharess what had just happened and the news she had heard from Shelley. And she emphasized to her that she must not go on an adventure in the holy city.
Although Sharess nodded in agreement on the surface, her eyes were filled with deep curiosity and interest. But she looked at Lliira’s worried face and did not say it, but instead changed the subject, “Lliira! I saw a special building on the way. I heard it was a sentry post built by Fente…”
!!!
Lliira’s expression suddenly changed. She grabbed Sharess’s gesticulating arm and asked quickly, “You just mentioned Fente?”
Nodding a little dazed, Sharess added, “Yes, the Republic of Fente, the former Southern Kingdoms Alliance.”
“Oh my, I don’t know how they unified. I really want to go and see~”
Lliira did not respond to her friend’s muttering. A forgotten detail seemed to flash through her mind, and she thought of what she had missed just now.
“…Sharess, do you still remember what the current prince of the Kingdom of Fente is called?”
Interrupted by Lliira, Sharess thought for a moment and said, a little uncertainly, “I think he’s called… Shelley?”
!!!
Lliira silently thought about the rumors she had heard and the details from just now…
“Godslayer, Shelley…”
“Why… didn’t you attack me?”
…
Shelley’s figure had dissipated in the corridor the second he had left.
If Lliira had known this truth, she might have been even more shocked. The Shelley who had given her a terrifying pressure just now was actually just his divine avatar.
[You’re really… not up to no good.]
Shelley thought for a moment. Ever since the two of them had broken through that layer… of relationship, every time he had appeared in the consciousness space, there had been an inextricable slaughter…
“Should I resist a little?”
[Hey.]
[Say something.]
Shelley felt his ear being bitten, and then he came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and said with a smile, “You’re right about that.”
“This is a tactic.”
The reason for letting Lliira and the others go was simple… Shelley needed them to stir up the water there.
One had a wandering habit, and the other had the hatred of having his wife stolen… these two goddesses would never be the kind to be obedient.
They would one hundred percent not listen to Shelley’s advice.
And he was waiting for this opportunity.
“You must, must…”
“Don’t let me down.”
You have to cause some chaos there.
