Chapter 608 The Two Intruders

[Meanwhile...]

Two figures walked side by side in the darkness.

Their long white robes, similar to Japanese kimonos, flowed as they took steady steps with every step they took forward.

Their hands were covered, but if they had been exposed the color would have been pale—the same complexion displayed by their enchanting faces and enticing necks.

Their white hair—one long, the other short—flowed seamlessly as they approached their destination.

The gate of the Human Capital.

"It seems this is the place..." One of the girls spoke up, her purple eyes scanning the area with a calm, analyzing sight.

"Really? It looks a bit different from what we were told" The other gave a more quizzical expression. She was the one with much shorter hair, and unlike the more composed behavior of her colleague, she was a bit louder.

"Shouldn't it be more run down than this?"

The long-haired lady said nothing, only narrowing her gaze on the place and scowling a little. It wasn't as though she wasn't also confused about the state of the place they were visiting, but she could not deny that this was the Capital.

'Our Master wouldn't lie to us. The coordinates we were given led us here, yet why do the walls of this city stand so firmly?'

In the end, she simply had to conclude that the humans put in more of an effort to rebuild their walls rather than the interior.

In essence, they would fully witness the shameful display of humanity's fall once they ventured inside.

"Let us proceed."

"Okay."

The girls walked past the guards who stood before the gate with utmost diligence, but the men said or did nothing to show that they actually saw them. Even the patrolling officers did not notice the white-clad maidens.

They easily proceeded into the stronghold of humanity with barely any effort at all.

"E-eh...?"

"What in the world?"

Unlike the calm demeanor they had when they were proceeding into the Capital, the two soon had looks of shock the moment they actually stepped foot into the city.

It looked rebuilt! No, it didn't just look like that... it was that!

"How is this even possible? By mere humans?" The long-haired girl whispered, looking around her in surprise as she pondered the issue with utmost shock.

The short-haired one was also confused and shocked, but more in the speechless manner. Perhaps taking in too much unexpected information shut her brain down for a moment, so she didn't say much until a few seconds later.

"Kat'erin... what do you make of this?" She asked the long-haired girl the question, looking at her with a serious demeanor.

"Looks like we are here..." Kat'erin already had low expectations of humanity, yet the Capital's best Inn managed to disappoint her even more.

Yes, it was taller than the other buildings around, and it looked exquisite in comparison to the rest, but that didn't mean it suited their standards.

They desired a classy hotel with all the necessary facilities, yet this was what they were stuck with.

"It is for the sake of the mission... the mission..."

Once Kat'erin reminded herself of this fact, she proceeded inside, with her partner right beside her.

The interior was equally bland, though she was sure many humans would consider the scenery impressive. She ignored all the superfluous designs that oozed substandard quality and poor taste and followed directions that led to the counter.

Once she arrived there, her body instinctively stopped as she cast her gaze upon the first thing in the human world that actually impressed her.

"Welcome, dear customers."

The crimson hair of the woman behind the counter, coupled with her ebony skin and the expert glasses that rested on the bridge of her nose, all got the attention of the two undercover Dragon Spies.

Her presence itself was immaculate.

The astounding lady smiled at them as she parted her glossy lips and spoke with utmost eloquence.

"How may we be of service to you?"

For a moment, the Dragon Generals were at a loss for words. They simply stared into the gem-like eyes of the woman before them, then at her hair... her hair was done so well.

It was long, designed so well, that they couldn't help but be impressed. Her nails were well-done as well. As for her black gown, they oozed pristine goodness.

Even though the Dragons had a more white and pure ambiance to them, they admired the forbidden darkness that the lady before them seemed to represent.

After being stunned for too long, Kat'erin finally snapped out of her daze and realized what she had been doing.

'How could I gawk over a mere human?' She wondered, staring at the unassuming lady before her.

She even forgot everything that had been said to her.

Thankfully, the receptionist didn't seem to mind. Not only did she flash a friendly smile once again, but she also repeated her question.

"How may I be of service to you?"
