Chapter 356: I Will Make a Big Contribution This Time!
Although Lolth felt that "something seemed off," she didn’t think much about it.
After all, she had just gone through an experience that left her completely exhausted, both physically and mentally.
"What does it matter if something is wrong? Everyone has already left!"
With this optimistic attitude pushing away her doubts, Lolth opened the door to the torture tower.
Then, the sight inside the torture tower finally reminded Lolth of what felt wrong.
Because… those "unexpected guests" had not all left.
There were three groups of people, plus one.
The Demon King and Doyle, Heidegger and Froer left two groups, and also Shelldor…
One group remained.
When Lolth opened the door, she saw Janine Irene lying on the ground in a funny pose, one hand stretched out in front of her, with her index finger pointing towards herself.
If the members of the Oracles Knight Order saw this scene, they would surely exclaim…
"Captain, what are you doing, Captain!"
And from the side, Lady of Light was sound asleep, being carried by Kanor and Turtle, who were lifting her by the head and feet from the ground.
Hearing the sound of the door, Kanor and Turtle showed happy expressions.
"Master Lolth, we did it again!"
"I didn’t expect that the God of Light’s blessing is really powerful; even with the Abyss Daydream Fruit, she woke up earlier than others and was able to wake her knight…"
"Yes, Master Lolth, they almost escaped!"
"But thankfully Kanor was clever and increased the dose before she woke up, making her take three pills, so they collapsed before escaping!"
The turtle proudly said to Lolth, "Look what I did!"
And Kanor humbly shook her hand.
"No, no! It’s all thanks to Master Lolth’s good teaching!"
The two of them carried the Lady of Light, singing together, nearly making Lolth roll her eyes in frustration!
"When did I ever teach you to put a spell on the Lady of Light? When was that taught!"
"This is serious work, you know!"
"If the Lady of Light and Janine Irene want to run away, let them go, right?!"
"Come on, Kanor is just eight and doesn’t understand. Why is the turtle causing trouble here!"
After finally sending away the Demon King, Isabella, and Tina’s parents, suddenly seeing the Lady of Light and Janine Irene was a big shock for Lolth.
It was like a bolt from the blue.
But she really couldn’t let it out.
Because she hadn’t told Kanor that she didn’t want to be captured— from Kanor’s point of view, this could indeed be seen as a "great achievement"!
And thinking objectively, the Demon King was still outside just now, so even if the Lady of Light ran out without eating a new Daydream Fruit, she really couldn’t escape…
Capturing the "Holy Maiden" was already a confirmed accomplishment!
Looking on the bright side, at least they were still very eager to escape!
Unlike a certain Grand Knight and the elf…
Moreover, in the end, the Lady of Light and Janine Irene were left behind mostly due to coincidence; the larger part of the responsibility surely lay with herself.
If it weren’t for her getting carried away and carelessly using the God of Light spell to lure those two girls out, and being so careless that she hadn’t noticed so many people sneaking into Hillenbrand Town beforehand, everything could have been managed!
So, one is the main person responsible!
Taking out one’s anger on a disciple, a little girl of eight, is as sad as a middle-aged father who, after being scolded by his boss, goes home to blame his young daughter for failing a test!
Especially since Kanor didn’t actually do anything wrong—she even wanted to help!
Although Lolth was already a little upset, she still had an idea of what she could do and what she couldn’t do.
So, after taking a deep breath to calm herself down, she smiled at her disciple Kanor.
"Well done, Kanor."
"This is a reward from the Lord of the Demon King for you and Dorothy… each of you gets a space magic bag!"
She crouched down and handed two grayish-white space magic bags to Kanor.
To be honest, Lolth didn’t even dare to look inside them.
Because the material of these two bags is already the highest grade of space magic bag.
It is made from the skin of a magic creature that lived in an ancient time, which has long been extinct, and has the natural ability to master the laws of space.
Not only is the space large and the structure stable, but its defensive power and strength are also quite impressive.
It even has a certain degree of "magic immunity" property.
It can be used as a heart protector when placed in front of the chest and can be tied with a rope to serve as a Meteor Hammer.
So, Lolth didn’t dare to look inside to see what was there.
If there happened to be a lot of Divine Artifacts inside, she was really afraid she might have a heart attack.
It’s better to wait for her apprentice to tell her first!
When Kanor received the space magic bag, she didn’t open it right away but was slightly surprised.
"Thank you, Master Lolth, and thank you, the Lord of the Demon King!"
She said gratefully while feeling that the Lord of the Demon King’s favorability rating had risen a lot in her heart.
Master Lolth’s boss was even more beautiful, kind-hearted, and thoughtful than she had imagined!
Even though Sister Dorothy was not present… Sister Dorothy still had her share!
Even she had a share!
This also shows that Sister Dorothy is competitive in the eyes of Master Lolth’s "elders"!
That’s true; Master Lolth’s "elders" would not care about details like strength or family background!
As long as Master Lolth likes them and they have good character, there shouldn’t be any problem!
The core competitiveness still lies with Master Lolth!
Thinking of this, Kanor felt that the chances of Sister Dorothy she supported had increased a little bit.
Lolth gently patted Kanor’s shoulder.
"Alright, Kanor… go to the West District and give the things to Sister Dorothy. I will take care of Lady of Light and this little Paladin."
As Lolth said this, she stepped forward, lifted Lady of Light from Kanor and the turtle’s hands, and hugged her with some effort.
"Okay, this Holy Maiden is a bit heavier than I thought!"
Saying this, Lolth set the Holy Maiden back down, grabbed one of her wrists, and then dragged the Holy Maiden over to Janine Irene. She also took hold of the Paladin girl’s wrist and led her deeper into the torture tower.
Watching this strange scene, after a moment of silence, Kanor couldn’t help but ask.
"Master Lolth, do you really not need my help?"
"No need—this little task I can still handle, and I should exercise my body!"
Lolth said without looking back.
"Alright, Kanor, you should go now—when I’m really tired, I’ll use magic!"
