Miss Riddler just wants to level up quietly

Volume 76: Chapter [-] Yae Sakura

A man-eating demon appeared near the town.

After eating an unlucky person, the demon will take his place, disguise himself as that person, and then eat other people secretly, silently.

It's not difficult to identify them. The memory of demons and ghosts is not good. Too many people eat them, and their memory is easily confused.

After years of severe drought, the shrine sacrifices are about to begin, and the appearance of monsters makes the people of the town panic, and the plants and trees are all under attack.

Once someone has symptoms of memory confusion or amnesia, they will be suspected of being a ghost.

The punishment can range from a cane to a physical test.

In serious cases, the person will be sent to the shrine. Not only will he suffer a great deal, but he may also die inside.

"No wonder the guy at the door is so arrogant. It turns out he is pretending to be powerful."

Theresa mused, holding a glass of bitter melon juice in her hand.

"This town has no government, or power...it seems to be really isolated from the world."

You can go to most places, but you can't even take a step closer to the shrine.

"I suspect that the culprit who dragged us into the dream space is in the shrine."

The green-white fingers pointed to the mountains in the distance, where a large shrine was located.

The lights are bright and there are guards at almost every important pass.

Yae Shrine.

It has a very high influence and controls all aspects of the town, similar to the church in the West.

Visit regularly, burn incense and purify your mind...

Planting rice in farmland, clearing land, weddings and happy events... Shrines can be found in many places.

When I visited the shrine just now, the guard at the gate drove them away arrogantly. It seemed that this was not an exception.

"Nightingale, how about I sneak up from the back mountain?"

"too dangerous."

Ziyao rejected Theresa's idea.

After arriving in the dream world, their power was greatly reduced, and Theresa was probably only a little more powerful than an adult male.

We don’t yet know what the consequences will be if we die here, so we need to be cautious in everything we do.

"Then what should we do? We can't even find anyone. Aren't we just headless flies?"

Teresa always remembers her goals.

——Find Mei and the other three and bring them back to reality.

Half a day passed and they were still wandering on the street.

Therefore, Theresa felt a little depressed.

It's all her fault that she didn't check the safety and took the God Key directly back to the dormitory, causing everyone to fall into a strange dream world.

"Principal, why don't I aggrieve you..."

The dusk sun was setting in the west, and the warm orange sunlight shone on the girl's cheeks.

"?"

Theresa tilted her little head.

"Principal, how about selling your lust?"

The picture shows the dagger, Ziyao teased.

"What are you thinking about? How could I do that kind of thing...You are obviously more suitable, right?"

Theresa thought Ziyao was joking and took care of her mood.

Really, so awkward.

Wouldn't it be nice to be candid?

After getting along for a while, she felt that the girl was a sharp-tongued person.

"Also...just call me Teresa, don't be too formal."

[Theresa regards you as a reliable friend, with a favorability score of 57]

“…”

It was okay to tease her, and her favorability suddenly increased.

Back at the ticket office, it was getting dark.

The boss gave them a map and asked them to follow the route to confirm safety and eliminate wild beasts and strange things on the road.

When night falls, every household closes its doors and windows, fearing that the next person to be eaten by monsters will be them.

The kerosene lamps were blown out one by one in the night wind, and a chill came over them.

"Wow? Don't scare me?"

Someone patted her on the back, and Teresa was almost picked up to attack Judas.

Last week, I accompanied Qia and the others to watch Midnight Ring, which left her with some psychological shadow.

"Relax, it's probably Honkaimon."

Ziyao didn't expect Theresa to be afraid of such a nihilistic thing as ghosts, and couldn't help but want to laugh.

"We have to go a little further tonight, probably away from these mountains."

Ziyao has a habit of playing open world games and likes to deliberately explore the boundaries of the map.

I just happened to get a map, so why not check it out?

Otto wanted to revive Sirin again, so he used the power of Jizo Yuhun.

In other words, this entire dream world is part of his plan.

The Herrscher of the Sky will awaken sooner or later, and there is no need for her to stop it.

After the birth of the Herrscher, there will probably be another bloody storm.

In gal, every week when Monokuri appears, it will cause huge disasters.

If you wake it up little by little and control it, you may be able to avoid this ending.

"Hitamaru..."

Looking at the map, the girl murmured the name of the culprit.

It is the master of the dream world and controls everything.

In order not to fall into passivity, they must capture Hitamamaru.

After leaving the ticket shop, the two of them left the town with their swords.

The road gradually changed from blue bricks to dirt roads, mixed with a lot of gravel.

Looking back, the town is surrounded by mountains, with only a river passing through the middle, isolating the outside world, like a peach blossom garden.

"There is nothing, not even the wild beasts to see."

From the very beginning, Teresa gradually became less nervous.

Except for the darkness and poor visibility, the place is deserted and there is nothing.

Continuing forward along the route marked on the map, the two finally came to a cliff, hundreds of meters in the air below.

The map shows that there is still a road ahead, which can lead to the outside world.

All the businessmen who come to the town come here, which is very intriguing.

Counting carefully, they had only walked for about half an hour before they touched the boundary of the map.

As they walked back, they encountered a strange figure.

His whole body was wrapped in a strange black energy, and upon closer inspection he discovered that he was a dead soldier.

Theresa took half a step back. After seeing clearly that it was a dead soldier, she drew her sword and cut it in half.

Even if her strength is weakened, Theresa can still easily defeat the dead soldiers.

He clapped his hands coolly, the so-called demons and ghosts were nothing more than that.

"Watch your surroundings, trouble is coming."

There was more than one dead soldier, and groups of black shadows crowded together and surrounded the two of them.

Facing this number of dead soldiers, even Theresa was unable to do what she wanted.

Normally, she could destroy them with a single strike.

"nightingale....?"

Just when she was about to suggest running away, Ziyao took the first step and took her hand.

The girl's palm was very warm, and Theresa couldn't help but squeeze it a little tighter.

Without saying a word, the two immediately fell in love.

The slow death warrior was quickly thrown away, and the two of them ran to a forest.

Unexpectedly, after the rustling sound, dead soldiers surrounded him from several directions.

The only way is through the forest, but going in will be more dangerous.

It was as if someone was driving the dead soldiers, driving them to dangerous places.

Teresa had no choice but to fight, and she knew better than to run into the forest.

"---brush!"
