Hikaru hastily explained: "My Queen, look at this place. My territory is very small and it is not qualified to take care of Princess Anno. That's why I think you should take her to a place with better conditions."
Selvih heard Hikaru's words and frowned. Just then, he felt the threat of death coming from Selvih. Hikaru was so scared that he couldn't move. However, he tried to use his teleport skill, hoping to be able to escape from this place.
[Ding! You cannot use this skill because Selvih has locked the entire space here.]
Hikaru was startled when he read this. He didn't think that Selvih was powerful enough to be able to manipulate space. I can't run, so I think I'll die here.
Hikaru felt despair. He took a deep breath and thought in his heart: 'There's only that way.'
Hikaru gritted his teeth as if gathering courage and said, "It is my great honor to be entrusted by the Queen to take care of Anno."
However, when Hikaru saw that Selvih still showed no signs of easing her anger, he continued to kneel on one knee to pay his respects.
At that moment, the sense of death that surrounded Hikaru disappeared. Selvih laughed and said: "Good, stand up. I understand your sincerity. So, you really like Anno. "
"Right. Princess Anno is very lovely, kind, and beautiful. I will definitely cherish her." Hikaru said as he stood up.
He also silently scolded himself for blatantly bootlicking. Hikaru tried to suppress his nausea to speak, but the words were contrary to his thoughts. If he were still alive, he would undoubtedly compete for an Oscar for his acting abilities.
Selvih saw Hikaru's expression was completely different from before, and she suddenly laughed. "There's no need to make such an expression. I won't mistreat you either."
Saying that, Selvih took out a small cloth bag. It was not difficult for Hikaru to realize that it was a resource bag.
Hikaru once again silently snickered. Currently, his resources were so many that Selvih thought that giving him a resource bag was enough to bribe him.
Even though he thought that in his heart, Hikaru's face still showed a fake smile. This was the smile he had learned as an office worker on Earth.
Every day, he must smile as brightly as the sun.When he meets his boss, he must smile; when he meets his colleagues, he must smile; and when he meets customers, he must still smile.
Selvih could, of course, see what Hikaru was thinking. But she just didn't want to expose him.
"Take good care of Anno. As for your enemy, I think I have a solution. However, if there's something wrong with my daughter, you'll regret existing in this world."
Selvih's menacing words.
"Besides, don't think a bit of intelligence will help you survive in this world. Only strength can help you."
As soon as Selvih finished speaking, she disappeared. The space returned to normal. The only difference was that there was a small cloth bag on the table.
Hikaru just let out a sigh, and then relaxed and sat down on the ground. He felt like he had just taken a stroll around hell, and then he was finally back on earth.
[Master, are you all right?]
'ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ No(v) e lBin ᴏɴʟʏ.',
"No problem. But there is a bigger issue to be concerned about."
[What exactly do you mean?]
"That's right, we have to keep a magnet for trouble." Hikaru said in a pained voice. He really wanted to refuse, but the threat from Selvih was too terrible. If he refused just now, he was afraid he would surely die.
Hikaru covered his forehead with his hand. He couldn't figure out why Anno was here and wanted to infiltrate his domain. Hikaru also regretted keeping Anno behind and then trying to use Anno's mother to deal with Sherwin.
Suddenly, Hikaru remembered something. He asked Rika: "Could it be... Anno approached me because...
[Right. That's because of the effect of the Meeting Chance card.]
Hikaru felt so regretful that he wanted to slap himself. Hikaru sighed and picked up the cloth bag. When he was about to open it, Rika stopped him.
[Master, you should use the 12-sided dice.]
Hikaru nodded. Following Rika's instructions, he began to open the resource bag Selvih left behind.
[Ding! You successfully used the item "12-sided Dice." All items obtained will be x100.]
[Ding! Congratulations on receiving: 4,000,000,000 soul points; 100 Nature Wands; 100 Nature Armor; 100 Mist Lamp drawings; 1,000 bags of synthetic seeds.]
"This is..." Hikaru saw 4 billion soul points. His eyes lit up: "Rich lady...Is this what it feels like to be raised by a rich lady? "
[Master is indeed bribed.]
Hikaru suddenly felt embarrassed. He explained, "Rika, this is not a bribe but a genuine job."
[Master, you should remember that Anno has a hidden buff which, although beneficial to her, also causes a lot of trouble for us.]
Hikaru sighed upon hearing that. Of course, he knew that. But now, what can he do? It's impossible to chase Anno away, and Hikaru couldn't kill her either.
Hikaru looked at the items he received from Selvih, and he could guess that Selvih already knew what he was missing. That means she could be watching me or she has a lot of information about me.
The Nature Wand was suitable for Vuni. The Nature Shield and Nature Armor were suitable for Saraya. Selvih seemed to know him very well. Hikaru felt vulnerable.
Not to mention the existences that created the fog or the system, the Dark Elf Queen alone was enough for Hikaru to feel that he was just a small ant in this world.
[So... how are you going to solve the problem of Anno?]
Hikaru suddenly mused and looked into the distance.
…
In an elaborately built and sculpted palace, at the top of the palace, in one of the rooms, there was a bed surrounded by white curtains.
A woman in a red dress with extremely seductive and enchanting curves lay lazily on it. In front of the bed, another Dark Elf woman was kneeling. She suddenly said: "Queen, how is the Princess?"
'',
That's right, the one laying on the bed was the Dark Elf Queen, Selvih.
Selvvih smiled and replied, "It's okay, I have sent her to someone I trust to take care of her."
The Dark Elf woman frowned as if she wanted to say something. However, she decided to stay silent. Selvih continued, "I know you want to bring the Princess back. However, now that war is about to break out, if the Princess is by my side, she will be my weakness.
"Yes, I see." The Dark Elf woman bowed her head and replied. Even so, Selvih also realized that there was no trust in the words of the Dark Elf woman.
Selvih sighed and asked, "Have the Orcs and Warbeasts taken action?"
The Dark Elf woman immediately replied, "The Orcs have sent their soldiers near our borders. However, according to the intelligence sent by the people on the front lines, there are only 10,000 Goblins. The number of Orcs and High Orcs is also a lot, about 200. The Warbeasts have barely taken any action. "
Selvih suddenly frowned and thought. After a long time, she said, "What about the light elf?"
"According to information from the spy that I brought into the Light Elves, a group of about 50 Light Elves disappeared. No one knows where they went or what their purpose is."
Selvih nodded: "Okay, you can leave."
"Yes, Queen."
After the Dark Elf woman left, Selvih suddenly took out a crystal ball. On the orb appeared an image of Hikaru sitting in the living room thinking about something.
Selvih muttered: "This guy is interesting. It was the first time someone was so afraid of my daughter. "Hope you can take good care of her."
.....
In Raito's domain
At this time, his territory was also surrounded by many undead, but the number was not much. Raito relied on the goblins to easily defeat the undead army.
As the battle neared its end, a Goblin approached Raito and spoke in an incomprehensible language. However, Raito understood that language. Immediately after hearing that goblin's words, Raito frowned and looked at the pillar where Naomi was tied.
Raito couldn't see Naomi anymore; the ropes were also broken. There was only a little blood on the ground around the pillar. Raito puffed out a breath from his nose, then shouted: "Ignore her. Perhaps she has become an Undead already."
Raito said that because he did not believe that Naomi could fight in that state and did not believe that Naomi could survive against the undead army.
In the forest, where the fog is covered. An Undead was carrying Naomi on his back and went deep into the forest. Naomi was now almost unconscious, her breathing extremely weak.
The undead were walking when suddenly they stopped and laid Naomi on the ground. Then a necromancer appeared from behind the mist. The Necromancers held a black stone the size of a chicken egg, inside which there were countless skulls, opening their mouths and screaming in agony.
The Necromancer made an incision in Naomi's stomach and inserted the stone. Right after that, Naomi suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes gradually turning black. Not only did her eyes change, but so did her body.
Her fingernails began to grow, her mouth grew fangs, and strange characters appeared on her body. However, Naomi suddenly muttered
"Hi…ka…ru…"
