Chapter 1089 - 814: How Much Longer Can I Hold On?
Yuloli’s predicament at this moment was naturally unknown to Reiger.
After completing the summoning of Yuloli and the group of fairies, he headed straight back to the room.
To be more precise, it should be said he returned to Liz’s room.
These days, he had been sharing the same room with Liz and Yuloli, sleeping on the same bed, under the same quilt, and almost bathing in the same pool of water.
Reiger initially refused this arrangement.
It’s impossible not to, since after Yuloli, who loved to strip people of their clothes, joined the bed, each morning found the three of them as bare as newborns, which was simply torture.
Both Liz and Yuloli had outstanding figures.
Such excellent figures would make someone drool even if paired with an unattractive face, let alone when both of them looked like fairies.
And even if Reiger loved adventure and thrills, he was still a normal man.
If someone tested a solid old hand like this every day, Reiger felt he would inevitably make a mistake and end up pushing these two extraordinary women, in terms of identity, appearance, talent, and power.
These days, Reiger clearly felt he was starting to lose control.
If things went on like this...
"I’m going to make a fundamental mistake."
Reiger sighed, with three figures flashing through his mind.
One was Rephia crying and hitting him with a wand.
Another was Ais expressionlessly drawing her sword to cut him.
The last was Yuri smilingly sending a purple wave to disintegrate him on the spot.
This was definitely not unfounded fear.
His damn instinct was telling him again, if he dared to do this and these three women found out, he would certainly face such treatment in the future.
Yet, his proposal to sleep in separate rooms, based on the desire not to make mistakes, was rejected by Liz.
"Does Master not want to sleep with me?"
The image of the little princess’ tearful eyes was still vivid.
"No... aren’t you bothered about being naked in front of me?"
At the time, Reiger couldn’t help but say this.
In response, though the little princess was very shy and embarrassed, she said.
"W-Well, there’s nothing much to see about my body anyway, and Master has already seen it many times, plus everything of mine belongs to Master, so..."
The underlying message was that she could accept it.
At the time, Reiger’s expression was like this.
"(;꒪ꈊ꒪;)"
He almost broke into a sweat.
As for Luna, who had heard the entire conversation between the two, her expression was like this.
"(▼ヘ▼#)"
Reiger was certain that it was the expression of someone who wanted to stab him.
If she hadn’t believed she was incapable, Luna would certainly have taken action.
Luckily, aside from Yuloli, nobody else was around at the time, otherwise, with just the little princess’s speech, Reiger might have faced social death depending on the situation.
In the end, Reiger still didn’t get the permission to sleep separately. Unable to resist Liz’s pitiful expression, he could only lay with these two fairy-like girls on the same bed every day, being unknowingly stripped, only to wake up to a burst of ’benefit impacts’ the next day, as the string called reason in his heart was slowly worn down over time, waiting to snap.
Speaking of which, Reiger couldn’t help but admire Yuloli a bit.
"Even though I deliberately raised my guard, staying on alert even when asleep, how does this woman manage to strip me without alarming me?"
He was at least a Lv.8, with base fighting power able to rival Lv.9, yet he couldn’t detect the slightest movement from Yuloli at night?
Could this woman have raised some skill of hers to a godly level, like the forging gods?
But to practice the skill of undressing to such a godly level, that’s quite a ridiculous reality.
"Sigh..."
The thought of another night destined to end in being stripped made Reiger worry about his increasingly unreliable rationality.
How much longer could he hold out?
Three days?
Two days?
Or... would he fail tomorrow?
"...Looks like I need to find a way to relieve some of the pent-up pressure."
If he recalled correctly, the magical recording crystal that Flon’s youngest had gifted (?) still lay in the storage space of his dimension cube?
Perhaps... find a chance to put it to use?
Just as Reiger’s spirit was worn down to the point of considering ramshackle ideas, suddenly, a thought struck his heart.
"......"
After a brief silence, Reiger squinted his eyes and strode back to the almost-near Liz’s room.
"Ah, Master."
Inside the room, Liz gave a small gasp, her face turning red.
Upon closer inspection, the little princess was in an unseemly state, seemingly in the process of changing into pajamas.
Beside her, Yuloli had already changed, tilting her head as she looked at Reiger, who was walking through the door.
"Don’t you ever knock?"
Luna scolded as she quickly helped Liz change clothes.
Under normal circumstances, Reiger would have reacted to this scene before him.
But now, he didn’t react at all and calmly said,
"We’ve got guests."
With those words, the blush on Liz’s face and the anger in Luna’s eyes instantly froze.
"————"
In contrast, Yuloli seemed to sense something, suddenly raised her head, and vanished.
"Bang!"
Almost simultaneously, a thudding clash erupted outside the door.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Accompanied by two slicing sounds, two figures burst in through the door in disarray.
Yuloli’s figure appeared like a specter before them, her fingers spreading, whipping through the air, instantly creating five claw marks that enveloped the pair.
The claw marks were fast, sharp, cutting through the air so swiftly that the piercing sonic booms lagged behind.
"......!"
The attacked duo’s expressions changed immediately.
Then, one roared furiously while the other retreated swiftly.
"Roar!"
With the roar, the person’s muscles swelled, height shooting from about 190 cm to over 2 meters, grasping a long and a short sword, charging at the five incoming claw marks with shocking momentum that surprised both Reiger and Liz.
"Boom!"
"Clang!"
First, he swung the long sword, clashing with a claw mark and dissipating it with a boom, then followed up with the short sword to block another claw mark, bouncing it away amidst scattering sparks.
Under such circumstances, the remaining three claw marks mercilessly pursued him, aiming to dismember him."
Fortunately, the retreating person made a move.
She held a short staff and quickly chanted spells, completing magic before the claw marks hit her companion and releasing it.
"Buzz!"
In the next moment, a mysterious surge of magic power radiated like ripples, enveloping the entire room, making the room’s atmosphere become thick.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Several thuds followed in succession.
The remaining three claw marks seemed to hit invisible barriers, dissipated by erupting air currents.
The unexpected guests resisted Yuloli’s claw strike capable of cutting through anything, coordinating smoothly and regrouping on the ground.
Yuloli simply blinked and suddenly dashed forward, unleashing her ghostly speed again upon the intruders.
Their expressions changed drastically, as if facing an unprecedented foe, hastily fending off Yuloli’s attacks in a messy panic.
In an instant, the room was filled with three flashing figures, though only three people were present, it felt like countless people were darting around, leaving residual images and illusions everywhere.
Their exchanges were exceptionally intense; though not using devastating attacks to lift the ceiling, their numerous rapid and fierce clashes per second still filled the room with a ferocious fighting atmosphere, causing explosions, booms, and sonic blasts to erupt incessantly.
"What on earth is happening...?!"
Luna had already hidden behind Liz, watching the battle she couldn’t quite follow—only seeing countless afterimages and explosive shockwaves—shrieking repeatedly.
"Master!"
Liz came beside Reiger, unknowingly gripping the Moslo sword still sheathed, her gaze vigilant on the two intruders.
"Don’t worry."
Reiger comforted the little princess, then turned to look at the two.
Upon inspection, Reiger was both surprised and curious.
"Where did these two skilled fighters come from?"
Indeed.
To withstand Yuloli’s onslaught, even as a pair, they must be experts.
One of the intruders at least had to be at Sword Saint level, not just any Sword Saint, but an established one, perhaps comparable to Flon at Lv.8.
As for the other, she seemed to be a magician, yet her combat-level magic use likely surpassed even Nipede, the magic world master who rivaled Sword Saints.
Sure, merely this wouldn’t surprise Reiger.
What truly surprised him was that these experts were shockingly young.
One was about twenty-five years old.
The other was an even younger lovely maiden.
"Interesting."
Reiger suddenly became intrigued.
