“I have an idea,” Li Aili said, her eyes sparkling.
"No, that won't do." The Duke exuded a chill.
"Husband!" Li Aili suddenly had a brilliant idea and unleashed her killing move.
Arthur, who had just been very principled: "..."
"Honey~ Honey~ Just this once!"
Arthur: "…………"
A few minutes later, Leslie stared in disbelief at the famous Duke of Holy Dragon.
Then, the two of them were put onto the carriage together.
Li Aili's retreat was so decisive that the group of Zhuo Er managed to capture a 'great beauty' without breaking a sweat.
Zhuo Er wasn't too vigilant during the escort.
"I can't believe it... just one 'husband' and he agreed??" Leslie was practically going crazy.
The Duke crossed his arms over his chest, crossed his long legs, and glanced at Leslie with a raised eyelid.
"Three times."
"What?"
After realizing what had happened, Leslie covered her face. "No, please don't say anything more. I'm afraid I can't handle the shock."
The carriage stopped after traveling for a short while.
The carriage door was opened, and 'Snake-Eyed Zhuo'er, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, sized up the 'great beauty' sitting inside the carriage.
"If I were a few hundred years younger, I would keep such a delicacy for myself."
Her gaze roamed over the Duke like a snake.
"Snake Mother, what do you mean?" a drow wearing a black cloak asked nervously.
The snake mother, with a cigarette dangling from her lips, turned around and scrutinized her with a cold gaze. "No, what I mean is—the temple has to pay me an extra 100,000 gold."
Temple Guard: "..."
After the goods were inspected, the carriage door was closed again.
Clearly, the temple was very wealthy, and Arthur's appearance made the temple's drow drool drool.
After the payment was made, the carriage started moving again.
Arthur, sitting in the carriage, snapped his fingers, and hundreds of black shadow demons emerged from his shadow.
Awaiting the master's instructions.
"Get rid of it."
Upon receiving the order, a dozen or so Shadow Fiends charged out of the carriage like wild horses.
Like snakes, their slithering along the ground is enough to send chills down your spine.
“That was…” A bead of cold sweat trickled down Leslie’s forehead.
The Duke ignored Leslie, leaned back, and closed his eyes to rest.
Leslie: "..."
The carriage passed through the bustling outer city and soon arrived at the inner city gate.
There is another outpost once you reach the inner city.
The guards stopped the carriage. "We are from the temple. This is a 'sacrifice' to be offered to the Queen during the ceremony."
Leslie leaned against the car door and heard people outside talking to the guards at the checkpoint.
Upon hearing the word 'temple,' the guards immediately let them pass.
"We've already entered the inner city, but the checkpoints here seem to be very strict. Can Madam and the others come in with us?"
Leslie swore he wasn't saying this out of fear of being offered to Rose and then tragically transformed into a monster roaming the 'Spider Forest'...
He simply found it too uncomfortable to be around the duke, who was in such a low mood.
The temple was built in the very center of the inner city.
Even from several streets away, you can see the enormous black spider statue.
Its upper body is that of a beautiful elf, while its lower body is that of a ferocious and terrifying spider.
This evil god statue is like a spider lurking in the center of a web, waiting for countless 'prey' to fall into its web.
As the carriage approached the temple, Arthur took out two bottles of 'Invisibility Potion' from his spatial ring.
He tossed a bottle to Leslie.
After Leslie finished drinking the potion, she wrapped her hand in her sleeve, crushed the potion bottle, and then hid a piece of glass in her palm for self-defense.
As for His Highness the Duke…
Soon, the Drow guards opened the carriage.
Several Drow guards were clearly bewitched by the Duke's face.
They stared blankly at the 'ascetic beauty' and swallowed hard.
“Ahem, let me take him to the high priest.”
"Why should I? I'm a direct descendant of the Monchert family. Even if my rank in the squad isn't as high as yours, my family is more powerful!"
"Get out! In the temple, rank and military status matter!"
Leslie watched as the Duke's face grew increasingly grim, and then he saw his shadow twist.
Leslie: "..." His eyelids twitched.
The Shadow Fiend that had run out disappeared into the shadow of one of the Drow Guardians.
Then, the guard raised his hand high and slapped his squad leader hard across the face with a loud "smack"...
The world fell silent.
Leslie: "…………"
The Drow Guard Captain slowly turned her head back, her gaze dark as she stared at her subordinate, who was even more shocked than she was. "You... dare to hit me?"
Zhuo Er, who had previously boasted that he was a direct descendant of a certain family, immediately backed down.
"No, no, it moved by itself!" The guard was dumbfounded.
The captain of the guard slapped him hard across the face.
With a "smack," the guard was slapped so hard he stumbled and fell to the ground.
"You dare hit me?! You dare hit someone from the Monchert family?!"
"Ha! Just an unloved illegitimate child who got into the temple guard because of his family background. Does he really think he's some kind of rich young lady?"
"I……@#%@!!!"
The two drow were fighting fiercely at the temple entrance.
The Shadow Demon, concealing his merits and fame, cleverly slipped back into the Duke's shadow.
Soon, the commotion at the temple gate attracted the attention of the temple's royal guards.
The temple guards, clad entirely in black iron, dragged away the two drow who were fighting in front of the temple without asking any questions.
