Book 4: Chapter 108: Anguished

Lilith and Sae sneaked out of the room, only to be greeted by a dark and seemingly endless corridor.

“As expected...”

“Hm? You have the map of this place, Lesiah?”

“No, but most castles or palaces of this size share a similar structure.”

The princess pointed to the menacing corridor that seemingly led into the unknown. “There are rooms on both sides of this long corridor. It seems like we have made the right choice of coming out. With such a rigid structure, the enemies will certainly not miss any room during their search.”

Lilith nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Which way do we go now?”

Lesiah looked around before replying to the question. “We must make sure we won’t run into the enemies directly, so we should go in the opposite direction of the enemy’s search. But the problem now is we are unable to determine if this is a straight or circular corridor.”

“Isn’t that easy to tell?” Lilith pointed to the wall in the hallway. “It’s obviously straight.”

“No. In such a large building, our vision is greatly reduced especially in this darkness. If the enemy casts a simple optical illusion spell, we won’t be able to correctly identify if this is a straight or circular corridor.”

“Leave it to me.”

Lilith peered into the darkness. Her golden pupils suddenly lit up, and the dark surroundings around her instantly brightened up in her vision.Ne/w novel chapters are published on no/vel(/bin(.)co/m

With her supreme eagle eyes, she finally found something wrong with the corridor.

Although the corridor appeared to be straight over a short distance, she realized that it actually followed a curve when she looked further down.

“This corridor... is circular.”

“Circular...” Lesiah stroked her chin and thought for a moment. “Looks like we need to play hide-and-seek.”

“Hide-and-seek?”

“Yes. Compared to a straight corridor, a circular one is more troublesome. If it was a straight corridor, we could just go in the opposite direction of the enemy’s search. But when it comes to a circular corridor, no matter in which direction we go...”

“We will eventually bump into the enemies.” Lilith caught on and finished Lesiah’s sentence. “Then what do we do?”

“That’s why I said hide-and-seek...”

Lesiah gave Lilith a playful smile, and it made the latter’s heart skip a beat.

The princess chose a random direction, then walked in that direction with her hands clasped behind her.

“Do you know what the ‘seeker’ relies on when playing hide-and-seek?”

“Hm... no...”

It attracted Little Hand’s attention. One of her hands opened, revealing a cute and tiny ear in the palm.

She listened attentively and was able to quickly determine the source of the noise.

“They dare act so arrogantly despite being trapped inside a cage. No wonder Lady Cornelia couldn’t tolerate them.”

Little Hand gave up searching every room and quickly crawled towards the source of the commotion.

......

......

After confirming that the sound of fingers tapping in the corridor outside had vanished, Lesiah finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Looks like our enemy has really fallen for it. Now if we head in the opposite direction, we shouldn’t run into them for the time being.”

“Hmm?”

The princess noticed that Lilith wasn’t even listening to her. She was doing something in front of a row of bookshelves. “Lilith, what are you doing?”

In the silent room, she could hear Lilith gulping. The blonde slowly turned her head around, raising a scroll without any trace of magical aura.

“Treasure... I found it...” she stammered.

“Treasure?!”

Lesiah also took one of the scrolls from the bookshelf. As soon as she unfolded it, words appeared in her mind.

[ God-level Magic Circle Diagrams ]

Lesiah drew a sharp breath and nearly threw away the scroll she was holding.

God-level...Magic Circle? The diagrams of something that no one on Xedrios had even heard of? And I’m holding it in my hand now?

Lesiah’s hands trembled. She even wondered if she was dreaming right now.

“F̲U̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲C̲K̲!”

Lilith suddenly cursed and threw away the scroll she was holding.

“What’s wrong, Lilith?”

Was she overjoyed?

However, there was not even a trace of excitement on Lilith’s face. She suddenly fell to her knees and hammered her fists on the ground, wailing like someone had just stolen her twenty years worth of savings.
