It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 623 A New Toy for the Tentacle Girl
The rest of the journey, escorted by Rowe, took Meicholi to the crater.

The rain in the sky gradually began to show signs of stopping, and that Starry Sky Demon Dragon should be one of the last few forces that fate intervened with.

Ciruri followed the two at a distance, neither wanting to greet them nor letting them go, her mood completely ruined by them.

Arriving at Meiqiuli's lair.

The Sandman shared the food with the two of them, then asked Cirrus, "There's a really nice hot spring here, would you like to soak in it together?"

"spa?"

Kiruri only realized now that it really was just ordinary food brought to her, but she didn't say anything special.

Although she was covered in sticky sweat and felt icy cold from the rain, and really wanted to take a hot bath, she dared not act recklessly with this "important person" here.

“You guys go ahead,” Rowe said. “I’ll wait until you’re done soaking and then open a portal to send this guy back.”

"No, please. I wouldn't dare put 'you' aside," Qi Luli said coldly.

Lowe shrugged.

"You've treated me like that, so we're even, aren't we?"

What kind of novice adventurer is she? Doesn't she feel even a little bit ashamed?

In the end, neither of them could convince the other. After finishing up, Lovi opened a portal and sent Cirulli back—bringing Meichori back with him as well.

Kiruri felt a mix of emotions as she watched the two people return to the street.

"..."

So why did I even take this commission?!
It was certainly meaningful for her to make this request.

In fact, if Luo Wei hadn't gone, the interference from the starry sky wouldn't have been triggered, and they wouldn't have been in danger. In a way, he was the one who brought the demonic dragon there. Summoning it in the wilderness was better than summoning it in White Harbor Town. I heard that Mei Qiuli was brought directly to White Harbor Town by this interference, and leaving it unattended would definitely be a hidden danger.

"I heard you slept with her before you set off, right?" he said, looking at the young adventurer.

"What do you mean? What do you want to do?"

Luo Wei shrugged and smiled.

"I just want to ask you if you'd be willing to accept my commission."

……

Back at the hotel, looking at Meichori who followed her in, Kiruri sighed with mixed feelings.

Miss Mary did explain things properly, so wouldn't you say she's just asking for trouble?

Why does the Sandman have to live with me?!
What does "supervising the daily life of the Sleep Demon" mean? Why is there such a follow-up to the request?

But I have no objection to continuing to be with Mei Qiuli. The escort reward was also paid as usual. It's just that accepting that person's commission always makes me feel uneasy.

Arriving at the bathroom, ready to finally enjoy a relaxing shower, and having removed her upper body, Kiruri was about to remove her lower body when she suddenly stopped.

She only now realized what the other person meant by "You treated me like that."

"What?!?!"

A hysterical scream suddenly erupted from the quiet second floor of the White Harbor Town Hotel.

……

In the Valley of Lamentation, Luo Wei took the Divine Core to Jasmine's place.

He had some attempts to make regarding this divine core.

As for Mei Qiuli, he'll leave her to that adventurer for now. It's still a bit unsettling to take her into the valley. He'll consider it again if things go smoothly after a while. He'll have Xiao Nonni keep an eye on her.

In front of Jasmine, the girl took out the box containing the divine core, tilted her head, and then a tentacle slowly reached up from behind her.

"This thing is dangerous. If you feel anything is unusual, don't touch it immediately."

"it is good……"

Jasmine is very obedient now. Although she still eats a lot every day, being able to eat is never a bad thing.

Lowe opened the box from above, watched as the soft tentacle carefully reached inside, and then gently touched it.

"How is it?" Luo Wei asked with concern.

“No…nothing special,” Jasmine replied, “I’m just afraid of breaking it…”

She then took out the divine core and carefully played with it with the tip of her tentacle like she was playing with a glass bead, which made Luo Wei's eyes tremble.

This works too.

He didn't notice anything unusual; it just looked like a young girl playing marbles. Hmm... her tentacles were so nimble.

"I feel like there are many different smells on it, I don't know if I'm right."

She was very focused on playing.

If that god knew that his divine core had ended up like this, he would probably be turning in his grave. But it doesn't matter, Jasmine isn't someone whose fate is intertwined with his.

Luo Wei's plan was to use Gui Wuhai's taboo to erode the pollution on this divine core.

Dealing with the contamination one by one would be too tedious and difficult. There are some types that he might not even know how to deal with, and they also involve the interior of the divine core. It would be better to make them all transform into the shape of the Sea of ​​Nothingness.

As the part opposite to the starry sky of destiny, the Jasmine of the Saintess of Guiwuhai has the property of corroding everything it touches, even the divine core. Anyway, Luo Wei only wants to use it as a ritual, not to use it to advance the godhood. Guiwuhai can be called the most serious pollution in the world, but like Maria, Saya's teacher, there is a way to solve it.

"Then you can keep this bead. Call me immediately if anything seems amiss."

"it is good……"

As the highest taboo in the world, she cannot be corrupted or eroded by anything, which is why Luo Wei dared to give it to her. Only Gui Wuhai's taboo itself can affect her.

Moreover, as her appetite increased, the filth on her body began to recede, and at least her right eye could see much more clearly.

After leaving Jasmine, Luo Wei was walking in the valley when he was suddenly kicked in the butt from behind.

"?"

He looked at Mena, who was standing there, waiting for her to give an explanation. "I asked the three of them," Mena said calmly, "and the answers were feet, back, and fighting, so I judged that your fetish is probably to like someone kicking your butt from behind."

“Come here.” Luo Wei beckoned to her.

Mena paused for a moment, her eyes brightening as she approached, only to be grabbed by the back of her collar and pulled up.

"Oh dear? Oh dear?"

The astrology girl, with her feet off the ground, was momentarily at a loss.

Looking at her youthful face, Luo Wei noticed that her hands and feet were drooping under her wide robes, and her expression resembled that of a cat being lifted up.

"If you think domestic violence is okay, I can satisfy you right now."

What has this guy been doing?

Did she ask Vimir, Saya, and Anainen what his preferences were? She'd been researching that lately.

"Did they lie to me?" Mena asked, puzzled. "I bribed her with ten Sen coins and begged her for a long time before she finally got Saya to say something annoying."

"..."

That's very wise.

Even if each of them is right, what does it mean to put their words together? This guy even used Star Flash to kick him in order to achieve that.

"You didn't do any work, so where did you get the Sen coins?" Rowe frowned.

“I told her to put it in the account.”

have to.

Luckily, the opponent was Saya, who actually believed it. It's true that one side dares to say it and the other dares to believe it.

What happens next...?

He hasn't been looking for Saya lately, but it's impossible to say he doesn't want to. However, there's no need to discuss this with Mena right now.

"You want to find an opportunity to contact me, but you don't have a good way to do it?" Luo Wei said helplessly, looking at the guy.

"Uh-huh……!"

Mena nodded vigorously.

Luo Wei couldn't help but smile. "There will definitely be a celebration in White Harbor in a couple of days. I'll take you there then."

……

after one day.

News of the celebrations in White Harbor for the rain stopping also reached Lucas's military camp.

Scarlett was standing in the military camp, watching her lord rubbing his temples in his seat, quietly awaiting his punishment.

"You said cooperating with that group of charlatans would be beneficial to us, and I did as you said. Now, what's the outcome for those charlatans?"

"..."

"Not only were hundreds of knights placed in a siege for no reason, but do you know that the town is currently planning to celebrate this?"

"I know."

Scarlett lowered her head in shame.

Lucas jumped up from his seat and slammed the scroll beside him to the ground.

"I've come to punish her!!"

He glared at the woman before him and roared, “She only has a few hundred men at most, how can she possibly stop my 50,000-strong army! Right now, she’s living a life of luxury and comfort in the city, while I and my 50,000 men have been drenched in the rain for over ten days on the grasslands, and now I have to watch them celebrate and sing her praises like a hero!!”

Scarlett simply bowed her head and accepted it; she had no room for defense.

She didn't want to see them lose popular support because of their attack on human towns. There was still a barrier in the orc valley that hadn't been breached for so many days. Now, the Sun God Cult had failed to infiltrate with artifacts that had wreaked havoc in several countries. How could she believe that an army of 50,000 would be able to attack safely?

The failure of Tulas and others proves this point precisely—the other side is not without ways to deal with them, otherwise there would be no need to hold onto a small town of little strategic significance.

During this period of offensive at the front, they have captured all the towns north of here.

“Speaking of which, I’ve heard some rumors lately,” Lucas said, his tone suddenly becoming calm. “Regarding the great fire in the capital, the taverns are saying that I told the residents that the crisis was over and that they no longer needed to be wary of fires?”

“…!” Scarlett felt a chill run down her spine.

"What are you doing?!" Lucas roared, glaring at him. "Those are my people! My people!! How could I, as a prince, issue such an order to my people?!"

"..."

Scarlett swallowed hard, embarrassed; this matter had her life in her hands.

Everything else can be explained, but this is the only thing that can't. Back in the capital, the plot was clearly thwarted, yet the Fifth Princess insisted on going her own way. She merely went with the flow, and indeed, she successfully caused the other side's popularity to plummet. Who could have imagined—

She knew the second prince wouldn't agree to make such a decision, but the news had spread in the tavern, and she absolutely refused to believe there wasn't some scheme orchestrated behind it.

She could even sense that this was Loewy Brook's way of responding to her.

“There won’t be a next time,” Lucas said, turning around. “If you overstep your authority again, I’ll cut off your head and send it to that commoner swordsman you’ve got your eye on.”

"Yes……"

Scarlett understood that this was already the maximum leniency she could show her.

"As for the strategy for the next advance, I have already decided on the plan. Since they like to celebrate so much, then this will be the last celebration of their lives."

As she watched the figure descend the steps, pass by her, and leave the tent, Scarlett turned around with a bitter smile.

"Don't wait until he makes an irreversible decision to stop him."

The situation is already beyond repair; what can she do now?
