Chapter 70: Martin Run!
Lesna was slapped to the ground by Zeller!
"You seem to be pushing your luck, Succubus.”
Zeller bent down and pinched her chin hard. His tone was unprecedentedly cold.
"If you’re really dissatisfied with the current situation, I can send you back to the Abyss at any time, no matter which Demon Lord’s territory it is.
"But if you still want to stay by my side, you should learn to behave yourself. Promise me that this will be the last time.”
Lesna’s eyes were filled with fear.
She stammered,
“I promise, this is the last time. ”
"The last time what?”
Zeller asked coldly.
"This is the last time I tried to take advantage of you. I was wrong, Zeller. I didn’t manage to arouse your friend’s lust, so I was a little muddle-headed.”
Lesna replied with a trembling voice,
“Don’t send me back to the Abyss. I beg you. They’ll break me…”
"Very good. Now, apologize to Matthew. ”
Zeller let go.
Lesna stumbled and fell to the ground, two bruises on her smooth chin.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Matthew. I shouldn’t have spoken nonsense in front of you.”
She apologized nervously.
Matthew waved his hand, indicating that it was fine.
Lesna was instantly relieved.
With Zeller’s permission.
She carefully entered the mirror in front of Matthew and disappeared completely.
"I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you, Matthew.”
Zeller returned to his gentle and amiable appearance.
” Demons are different from ordinary creatures. If I treat them kindly, they will be more likely to be ungrateful and comolacent. Lesna is an examDle. If I don’t punish her occasionally, she might think that she is my master.”
As he spoke, he smiled helplessly.
"Your summoned creature, Peggy, I see that you treat her very well too. Will she show such signs too?”
Matthew could understand Zeller’s helplessness.
Demons were indeed a unique species and could only be controlled by using both and cruelty.
Thinking of this, he didn’t envy Zeller for having a succubus anymore.
At least his kindness with his summons was rewarded.
” No, no.”
Matthew smiled.
"Peggy has a lot of shortcomings, but overall, her personality is quite cute. The only thing that annoys me is that she often asks for a raise in salary, but I don’t think that’s her fault.”
A hint of envy appeared in Zeller’s eyes.
"Then, shall we get up and change? The celebration is about to begin, and we’re going to set off fireworks at the climax of the celebration.”
Matthew nodded.
Then, he hesitated.
"What’s wrong?” Zeller asked.
"Although it’s a little presumptuous, and the timing isn’t right, can I ask Lady Lesna to charge my magic staff?”
Matthew took out his Cough Magic Staff in embarrassment.
He had followed the method of Tower Spirit 177 and charged the staff by
“Holding the staff and imagining coughing”. The result was shockingly inefficient-about 3 seconds of imagination counted as one official charge, but at least 10000 official charges were needed to charge the staff fully.
Matthew had originally planned to charge it slowly, but since he had run into a succubus, he might as well take advantage of it.
After all, Matthew didn’t ask Zeller or the officials of Rolling Stone Town for compensation for helping him this time, right?
Zeller took the staff and studied it for a while before nodding.
"Psionic energy? It shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll give it to Lesna later.”
The two of them stood up.
After changing his clothes and getting taller.
Zeller led Matthew to the hall where the Mirror Image ritual was set up.
At noon.
The Seven Saints Square in the centre of Rolling Stone Town was packed with people.
This was where many awards were given out.
Although it had only started today, there were already many small contests that had already concluded. The contestants and their families and neighbours came to receive the award happily.
A cheerful atmosphere pervaded the air.
Under the statues of the Seven Saints.
Two men dressed as travelling merchants were whispering to each other.
In front of them was a large wooden box with a large string of cotton candy inside.
"Today is the best day to break out of the prison. Look, a large number of guards have been transferred to the square to maintain order. I dare to bet that there is no one in the prison at all.”
A man in his twenties said in a low voice.
"You’re right, Jonas, but Dean doesn’t want to come out. That is our main problem.”
The man who answered him looked to be in his thirties. He was thin, and his eyes were bright, but he always looked lazy.
"Leon, why do you think boss Dean is not willing to leave the prison?
Jhonas was puzzled.
"Who Imows? Perhaps the food in the prison was better.”
Leon grabbed a marshmallow for himself and said casually while eating.
” I keep feeling like we’re two big idiots. We came to Rolling Stone Town and didn’t even know the specific mission
Jonas said unhappily,
“They only told us to disguise ourselves and sneak into the prison. In the end, Boss Dean ignored us. Are we really here to sell cotton candy?”
Leon comforted,
“We’re not the only two who are here. There are other members of the Brotherhood and two other organizations. Don’t worry. They must be doing something big. We just need to follow the orders and observe the situation in Rolling Stone Town.”
Jonas’s eyes glided as he looked at the people around him, who were filled with laughter.
"But I feel that we’ve been discovered! How could they laugh so happily? Did they recognize us long
