"So the Queen is in the castle?"

Nakano Satsuki asked the scarecrow beside her, still a little annoyed that the cream and chocolate on her body had been separated by the gingerbread witch, and wanted to know what else was in her trial.

"There should be another battle, because they said something strange like you need to have three Pokémon to challenge a gym."

The scarecrow didn't hide anything; it would be better to end this mentally exhausting and socially draining trial as soon as possible.

Nakano Satsuki: "..."

Continuing along the road, she asked the gingerbread witch about the illusions.

The answer she received made Nakano Satsuki reveal the same expression her teachers had when they were teaching her.

The gingerbread witch naturally explained that she had been squatting in the candy house for many years and was completely unfamiliar with walking, so she had been circling around in the same spot without noticing anything.

When the scarecrow approached, the gingerbread witch located it directly by its strong scent.

Since her tone didn't sound like she was lying, Nakano Satsuki opened her mouth, but ultimately gave up on discussing whether the Gingerbread Witch was actually playing herself.

Hmm... we've reached the second stage.

A cylindrical building with a windmill, resembling a medieval mill, is located not far from the roadside.

Chapter 382 The Shepherdess

"It's the shepherdess."

Seeing the figure next to the windmill, the scarecrow warned, "Its power is quite troublesome."

In fact, it's much more than that. Under Miss Red's rule, they all had different statuses. The Shepherdess was Miss Red's personal maid, and her strength was among the first batch below Miss Red.

"I see it."

Nakano Satsuki also spotted the target, and the panel next to the Shepherd Witch displayed a fire-type skill that could be activated simply by looking at her.

Both the scarecrow and the gingerbread witch are afraid of fire.

Pokémon - Shepherdess

Attributes: Ghost, Dark

Skill 1 - Curse of the Sheep: A cursed power that can turn creatures into sheep.

Skill 2 - Mourning: Your weeping can transform sheep into demonic sheep brimming with hellish power.

Skill 3 - Food Spell: You can summon a table of delicious food by sacrificing a sheep.

Skill 4 - Companion Demons: Your sister and younger sister have become your companion ghost stories because of their bloodline.

Sister - One Eye: A jealous gaze can distort everything in front of her.

Sister - Three Eyes: Jealousy will descend upon the target through her gaze.

The shepherdess sat in front of the doorway, grooming her two sisters. Her eyes revealed that these two devilish sheep still retained their intelligence.

She had long, slightly wavy, light golden hair, and her figure was completely covered by a witch's robe. All that was known was that she was not tall and had thin lips, but her seemingly watery eyes and delicate features made up for it.

"No, it's crying!"

Before Nakano Satsuki could give any orders, the scarecrow, having already noticed this, rushed forward.

Although he couldn't defeat her, the shepherdess wasn't there to kill him.

This is just a trial. I didn't even dare to go all out in the fight against the gingerbread witch. The shepherdess will probably just pretend to fight this battle too, right?

With this thought in mind, the scarecrow's black fingernails slashed towards the shepherdess like scythes.

The shepherdess's tears had already fallen, and her sister beside her had grown sharp teeth, her pure white fur now stained with the color of lava by the power of hell.

Then, the scarecrow caught fire.

at this time,

Ilya's voice came again.

"Congratulations, Nakano Satsuki, you have now reached the second stage of the trial."

Defeat the shepherdess before you, and you will obtain the golden apple that can restore the queen's senses.

Thanks to the scarecrow's mistake, Ilya and the others, who were watching the battle through the magic mirror, discovered that Nakano Satsuki and the gingerbread witch hadn't had much trouble passing the first level.

This is clearly not in line with the trial.

Therefore, their instructions to the shepherdess were that she could act at will and make Nakano Satsuki experience a difficult battle.

"Are you serious?!"

Feeling the burning sensation in his body, the scarecrow was in excruciating pain and looked utterly bewildered.

No? It's all targeting me?

Seeing that the demon sheep showed no sign of stopping its attack, the scarecrow had no choice but to painfully use up another substitute. Its substitutes not only required the slaughter of a large number of lives, but also had to be woven by hand, and each one used was one less.

"So how do we defeat it?"

Satsuki Nakano also noticed this and dared not let the Gingerbread Witch go on stage, since the Gingerbread Witch had no substitute to dodge fatal attacks.

"who knows……"

"That's what the scarecrow complained."

With its clones, illusions, and teleportation abilities, Scarecrow's skill combos are entirely designed for survival, offering very little offensive capability against ghost stories.

And the shepherdess?

Its entire skill set is dedicated to killing.

In any case, the scarecrow has no chance against the shepherdess witch, who is a killing machine.

Taking a deep breath, the scarecrow split into three. It could only try to dodge the battlefield and use illusions to deceive the shepherdess and the demon sheep, while the gingerbread witch tried to use the candy house to summon and cause damage.

……

"Mrs. Yukino, Mrs. Yukino?"

Please don't call me that...

Yukino Fuyuki crossed her forearm over her face, barely managing to squeeze out a word of protest.

Who calls someone else's wife at a time like this?

Yukino asked herself in her heart.

This title makes her feel very ashamed. Yukino's special Yuki-onna (snow woman) constitution during deep winter can also cause ice to melt in a strange state. Jolyne discovered this switch and likes to mention this title that makes her feel very uncomfortable.

"Mrs. Yukino, Mrs. Yukino..."

This time it wasn't Jorin, but Jorogumo's teasing and playful voice.

"Well……"

The next moment her mind went blank, and her thinking ability completely collapsed.

After a while, Yukino Fuyu finally loosened her grip on Jorogumo's slender waist.

"So useless."

Yukino thought to herself, feeling frustrated.

Controlling the ice to freeze the water molecules, and then using force to pulverize them, the originally hot air was soothed by this coolness.

Yukino Fuyuki felt it was all Jorogumo's fault; otherwise, she knew she could have held on a little longer.

“But I remember that the Jorogumo was even less useful in this regard.” Recalling her previous memories, Yukino’s blush, which had not yet faded in the depths of winter, deepened once more.

At this moment, Jorogumo's side ponytail fell down onto her face, and the movement made Yukino Fuyuki feel like sneezing. If anyone else were here, they would definitely take revenge for what happened earlier. Unfortunately, even though Yukino Fuyuki was filled with malice and anger, she only dared to secretly tickle Jorogumo's ticklish spot from below.

Hmm... We're not using more aggressive methods to deal with her in order to prevent it from becoming a counterproductive reward.

Yukino Fuyuki convinced herself.

After some time, the two white-haired people were already wrapped up in the blankets next to them, their eyes half-closed for a while before responding to the topic.

"This world is very dangerous. Be careful when dealing with it. I will leave the Luoyan City teachings with you. If you encounter a situation that you cannot handle, you can try to bring Kanoko to this world to solve the problem."

Jolyne spoke to Saeko Busujima, who was in his arms.

The potential of ghost stories is quite high, no less than that of most bloodlines.

The potential for fairy tale characters is even more terrifying; the combination of these two represents just how unreasonable the power of this world's top supernatural tales is.

Although the workshops exist, and Miss Red says that those divine realms are far from the Lettuce Territory they are going to, Jolyne still worries that one day two stinky bears will suddenly run into his territory and try to stop him from destroying nature...

It sounds absurd, but reality often turns out to be even more absurd than expected.

The affairs of the Ghost Stories Association are left to Saeko Busujima and Jorogumo. If any unexpected incidents occur, Jolyne will have no choice but to seek protection from the organization.

Hmm... Paradise World has everything.

I, Joren, have only one deer.

It can move mountains, overturn seas, subdue demons, suppress monsters, command gods, pluck stars, sever rivers, destroy cities, and open the heavens!

Here comes the deer!

Chapter 383 Queen

"I see."

Saeko Busujima's breath was damp; she showed no signs of fatigue.

The demon blood surged within her body. Due to Veronica's enhancement, the two had only recently merged, which also awakened the Blood Demon Art. This had made Saeko Busujima somewhat hyperactive and emotional lately.

The most obvious difference is that Saeko Busujima used to smile like an older sister when Jolyne was being intimate with other girls, but now she has an alluring "I'm a little jealous" expression when faced with certain situations.

"Hmm... Just be more careful in the future."

The location we've chosen for our base is already so remote, the chances of that happening are still very slim.

Jolyne took the [Snail Annihilation Castle Text] from the workshop and handed it to Saeko Busujima.

"Mortal, I am angry."

"I am not an object you can shout at as you please. Only if you sincerely offer the land deed you just saw as a sacrifice to me will I possibly forgive you..."

[The Snail Annihilation City Text] has already begun to clamor.

Saeko Busujima wasn't interested in the book and casually tossed it to Jorogumo.

"Let's give it to Jorogumo. She can better observe whether anything has happened to us in the fairy tale world through the connection between Ryudou-ji Temple and the workshop."

"Thanks, hey."

The woman felt a little grateful, but then suddenly froze.

She felt like the kind of idiot who works herself to the bone to meet company targets, only to have all the credit given to people with connections, and then still have to say thank you.

Jorogumo, sharpening her fangs, ultimately chose to tease Mrs. Yukino beneath her.

Actually, Jorogumo really likes Yukino Fuyuki, otherwise she wouldn't be so concerned about her.

This is because Jorogumo was just a child before she was turned into a demon by Muzan Kibutsuji, and Yukino Fuyuki gave Jorogumo a very warm feeling of maternal love.

Hmm... Saeko Busujima wouldn't work; Jorogumo would only see her as a rival.

At that moment, Jolyne suddenly felt someone from the workshop contacting her, wanting to come over.

Jolyne agreed, and with a thought, Esdeath appeared there.

Esdeath stepped onto the soft bed, looking at the three people wrapped in blankets, her deep blue eyes quickly shifting from jealousy to sweetness.

"I remember you said that the flow of time in this world is twenty-four times that of the main world, right?"

Without any hint of shyness, Esdeath licked her lips and began to undress, with Saeko Busujima making way for her.

"That's right. By the way, why didn't Medea and Kanroji Mitsuri come?"

"Hmm... because Ai Haibara... brought her elementary school classmate to the newly opened dessert shop, and Mitsuri Kanroji was trying her best to feed... Kanna's dragon, and the others were just joining in the fun."
